ASK TO NAME RECEIVER
Petition Requests That Affairs of Life
Insurance Co. BE Liquidated.

A petition asking for the appoint
ment of a receiver to dissolve the
Farmers & Merchants Life and Cas-
ualty association. of Topeka. and to
liquidate it's assets, was filed in the
district court today by Richard J.
Hopkins, attorney general. The COM
pany joined in the request for the re-
ceiver
Hopkins asserts that the company
is insolvent and that an examination
recently made by the state insurance
department revealed that the COM
pany's assets amounted to S6,693,20,
as compared with $12,433.45 in liza
bilities. The management has broken
down, he alleges, adding that differ
ences between officers and directors
Of the company make a reorgan-
ization Of the business impractical. If
the charter is cancelled by the super
intendent of insurance. he says. it will
mean the associations assets will be
lost, resulting in considerable damage
to policy holders.

DIETIo CAUSE
OUR DOWNFALL
French Aaaylist Says Mines Pie
Corned Beef and Cabbage VIII
Ruin America.

New York, March 3o.-(United
Press. )-ABkrican civilization will
be destroyed by mince pie and corn
ed beef ald cabbage.
In mailing this statement to the
United Press today, Andre Tfidon,
noted French phycho- analyst, point
ed out that the overthrow Of Amer
lea would be a part of the general
downfall of the white race.
Americans are the worst eaters
in the world" he said. "Your
atrocious eorned beef and cabbage
and your horrible mince pie are but
examples Of your unspeakable
menu. Why, even the Mexican In
dian can take q piece of goat meat
and a few chilli peppers and con-
coct q dish that would shame your
best home cooking.
When the stomach fails the race
begins to die out. The true Ameri-
can has already begun to disappear.
Your New England stock is nearly
just q memory. 1t is being replaced
by the more sturdy European
strains Of stronger stomachs and
better constitutions. You are too
much addicted to your corned beef
and mince pie and kindred gastron.
omic nightmares to give them up
They will be your downfall"
