Loan Liquidation Continues.

The weekly Federal Reserve State

$65.32S,000 in the gold settlement fund
evidently was connected with the liqui-
dation of $430.000.000 OF Treasury Ger
tificates. which fell due on Wednesday.
Also the expansion OF $299. S51 900 in
holdings of Treasury certificates repre-
sented a temporary matter TO be
changed as that paper is replaced by
proceeds Of tax payments and sales OF
new certificates and notes A growth
OF $194,170,000 IN deposits was hinged
on the June Is payments. The retire
ment OF $36,2sS.O00 OF reserve notes
made the resultant total of $2.S74,435.-

PACKING co. MUST ANSWER
Industrial Court Ready to File Man
damus in Supreme Court.

The Kansas court of industrial re-
lations, thru its attorney, Baxter D.
McClain, was ready this afternoon to
file a mandamuS with the clerk of the
supreme court asking that the Charles
Wolff Packing company be required
to carry out the provisions of the in
dustrial courts wage order pending
decision in the supreme court testing
the validity of this wage order. =
The Wolff company claims that the
industrial court had no authority to
fix a minimum wage of 40 cents an
hour for killers and no power to
order the company to pay women the
same wages as men doing the same
work.
1t is claimed the provisions Of the
industrial court order are being
ignored and the attorney general has
been investigating the charge that en-
ployes were discharged because they
appeared to testify before the indus
trial court.
