Ter at the International Trust COM

nounced today. While detectives and
accountants check the shortage at that
institution. which according to the
banks officials has been found to
amount to more than $4,000 following
the disappearance Sunday or Monday
of Edwin F. Morse, head teller.
1t is the theory of detectives working
on the shortage. 1t was said today that
Morse. sought in connection with the
shortage, by the federal government,
had a confederate. Who the confed-
crate is believed to be or how the theft
was manipulated, detectives were un-

person presented a check for a large
part of the missing sum and that the
remainder OF the currency stolen was
taken out at closing time last satur-

LEGION ACCEPTS K. K. K. GIFT
Houston Veterans at Same Time De-
cline to Endorse Khan.

Houston, Tex, Oct. 22.-Local
American Legion members have unan-
inousIy accepted a cash donation of
$45 from the Ku Klux Khan and filed
three letters from the Very Rev.
M Kirwin, vicar general of the Gal
weston Catholic diocese, closing the
flag incident" so far as the Legion
is concerned.
On the priests letter acknowledged
receipt of the posts resolution con-
demning for precipitating the flag
incident" another defended his posi-
ton, and the third, at considerable
length, bitterly assailed the Ku Klux
Khan. Hot debate in the Legion's reg
ular meeting last night brought out
that the posts position had been made
clear in that it did not approve the
priests action in refusing to salute a
flag flying at half mast in memory of
an overseas veteran who had died. and
by unanimous vote the letters were
filed to close the controversy.
The question of accepting the Ku
KIux Khan offer, which was to be ac
cepted to purchase twelve bugles for
the posts drum and bugle CORPS, pre-
cipitated bitter debate. Acceptance
was made with the statement that
such action was taken only in the
spirit of accepting a benevolent dona-
ton and emphasis was laid on the fact
thet in so doing the post did not in
dorSe the khan.

Senate and Capper Moves Up.
Washington, Oct. ga Readjust-
ments of senate arrangements follow
ing the death of Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania. have worked to the ad-
vantage of both Kansas senators.
Senator Curtis succeeds Senator
Knox as chairman of the powerful
rules committee and Senator Capper
succeeds to the late Pennsylvania
senator's desk in the senate chamber
This desk is nearer the presiding Of
ficer's dais and is more desirable than
the one now occupied by Senator Cap
per. farther back.
Senator Curtis resigns the chair
manship of Indian affairs, whichs he
has held for so long a time to become
chairman of the rules committee4 He
retains his place on the two great
committees on finance and appropria-
tions. No single member of the senate
combines so many positions of power
and influence in the senate now as
Senator Curtis. Besides the commit
tee places alluded to, he is also as
sistant majority leader and Republican
whip.
The Craftsmanship Of the rules COM
nittee in both the senate and house
is now in possession of Kansans, Rep
resentative Philip P. Campbell, of the
Third Kansas district, being the chair
man of the rules committee Of the
house.
