BACK TO DISTRICT COURT
State Banks in Georgia Had
Charged Federal Reserve
Banks Had Planned Cam
paign to Force Them Into
the Federal Reserve System
by Holding Up Checks ON
Non Member Banks.

Washington, May 17-Georgias
state banks have won an initial vict-
ory in their fight against the par col
lection order of the reserve board but
a careful study of the opinion of the
Supreme Court shows that the court
did not go to the extent of declaring
illegal par clearance by reserve banks
of checks drawn upon banks not
members of the system as was at first
understood.
The Supreme Court specifically re-
versed the ruling of the Federal Dis
trict court in Georgia refusing the
injunction sought by state banks and
dismissing their complaint as want
ing in equity. The case now goes
back to the district court for recon-
sideration
The state banks had charged that
the Federal Reserve Banks had plan
ned definite campaign to force them
into the reserve system by holding up
checks on those banks and collecting
them in bulk instead of sending them
through ordinary channels for COL
lection. The Federal Reserve banks
denied any of the acts alleged consti--
tuted violation of any law of the
United States and sent as the reason
that par collection Of checks was
made compulsory upon it by the re-
serve act.''
Justice Holmes who read the opfn~
ion declared the lower court went
too far" in dismissing the state banks

THE GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE
Litigation Increases
IN Fergus County,
Due to Oil Business

Special to The Tribune.
Lewistown, March 19.-The devel-
opment Of the oil industry in Fergus
county has added materially to the
litigation OF the Tenth judicial dis.
trict, the number Of important OIL
cases filed since September l last
being. 81, with as many more during
1920 prior TO that month. As show
ing the amount Of general litigation
in this district. it may be stated that
since January last up to March IL.
the number Of civil actions filed is
236. This is the normal rate and it
can be seen why the bar is aroused
over the suggestion that one. OF the
two judges in this district. which IN
cludes Fergus and Judith Basin
counties. should be dispensed with. All
of the oil suits are important and some
of them involve very large interests.
The effect of the oil development has
been felt in another way, in the amount
that has been expended to constructing
roads into the fields, especially Cat
Greek. running up into many thousands
of dollars.

this too high and the matter was re-
ferred to committee of three, which

Lewistown, March 19.-Information
!, ~ to the exact situation at the Seattle
Flatwillow well, on the Powell ranch
In the Flatwillow structure, some nine
miles southeast of Cat Greek, is more
closely guarded than ever, but the
reason is now well known-the desire
of those connected with the enterprise
to secure additional acreage which
might be lost if the wells exact status
we're known While this well may not
be in, there is good evidence for be-
ieving that it is at least SO near pro-
duction that those in charge are max
ing preparations that always attend
production.
The new cable to replace that
broken at the Kansas Montana at
Winnifred few days ago was taken
to the well Thursday afternoon,

ing, these wells being closely punched
IN section 11-15-29. The Mccarthy
well, offsetting the Big Lehman, is
also showing oil and it is not i'm
probable that all four wells will be in
with commercial production in mat
ter Of four or five days for the last
one.
Two more rigs, three and four, have
been completed by the Homestake
company and No. 3 will be spudded in
just as soon as No. 2 we'll is COM
pleted, and this is expected within
few days now.

week to relieve the rush that comes
directly before Christmas.
Will you go home today and take
this message to your parents and
friends:
"Our postmaster has asked us to mail
our Christmas parcels this week, for,
unless we do, Uncle Sans load may
be so heavy the last few days before
Christmas that he won't be able to
deliver all the presents by Christmas
eve."
The parcels must be we'll wrapped
and tied and addressed plainly in order
that they may arrive in good condition
with their Christmas appearance un-
spoiled. You can put on your pack
ages, do not open until Christmas.
The address on every letter, card.
or package must be correct, complete,
and legible. including the house num-
Der and name of street, and the From"
address should be in the upper left
hand corner so that the mail will be
returned to you in case it is not de-
livered. Do not abbreviote names or
states, because so many look alike
when abbreviated.
Put the proper amount Of postage
on your letters and wrap the parcels
carefully. Avoid fancy writing, which
causes postor1ce clerks and letter car
riers to stop and study, and thus lose
time. Make the address plain and
easily read, and always use pen and
ink or typewriter and ~light-colored
envelopes, so as to save the eyes OF
the postofice clerks. Do not use en-
velopes Of unusual size. The little
ones that are so frequently used for
cards and notes at Christmas and
other holiday times cause an untold
amount Of labor and trouble, as they
will not At our canceling machines
and must therefore be Cancelled by
hand. Because of their size and ten
dency to slip out of a package, these
small envelopes are more likely to be
overlooked or lost.
Mail your letters and packages early
in the day, because this avoids over
loading and delaying mail at the end
of the day.
Your local postmaster and your
teachers will tell you more about the
postal service.
Do these things. and you will win
the grateful appreciation of the people
in your ~postof1ce and especially of
Your postmaster general,
Will H. Hays.
P. S.-Don't forget to mail Christmas
packages this week.

We understand that a man was
killed on the high powered electric
line between White and F1andreau re-
Gently. He was going to do some re-
pair work on one of the wires near
White and phoned in to headquarters
at Flandreau to have that certain wire
cut out. The foreman in the power
house pulled the plug which cut out
the line. A little later the superintend-
ent, upon coming into the power house,
noticed the plug out and Immediately
went up to the switchboard and put
in the plug which sent a current Of
$500 volts over the line, killing the
workman at the top of the pole near
White Immediately.
The electric light line between Volga
and Brookings is practically completed,
in fact it will be completed before this
