TO SPLIT UP HAIL WARRANTS

''In order to accommodate farmers
and make it easier for them to handle
the financing Of their hail warrants >
said Commissioners S. A. Olsness on
Monday of last week, 1--WE have de-
cided to hereafter issue more than
one warrant for all claims payments
amounting to more than $s6o.oo.
"To illustrate, a claim for 5000, say,
will be paid in two warrants Of $500
each. By splitting up the payments
into smaller warrants we figure that
the farmers will have an easier time
disposing of their warrants and to
banks and merchants and that, with
the smaller warrants, the farmers will
not be compelled hereafter to. pay

MARION, OHIO, Jan. i.-w. y.
Doak, vice president OF the Brother
hood OF Railway Trainmea. came to
Marion today at the request of Presi-

with him the general problem of rail-
ways and railway labor.
Whether specific policies were
talked over was not revealed but Mr.
Doak said he expected to return later
for a more exhaustive discussion OF
a preliminary way. He expressed the
opinion tina, Mr. Harding's attitude
toward labor was a sympathetic one
and that railway labor questions
would no, be found difficult under the
next administration.
Special Significance was attached
TO the conference because OF Mr..
Earding's vigorous utterances during
the campaign in support of the I:sch-
Cummins railway law. which many
leaders of railway employees opposed.
Mr. Doak would no; signify whether
the subject was covered in his talk
with the President-elect. but said
there was no discussion OF possible
selections for Secretary of Labor and
no detailed exchange OF opinions on
;he open and closed-shop questions.
Another of those, who saw Senator
Harding during the day was Peter s.
Grosscup of Chicago. formerly a
judge OF the Federal Court of Ap-
peals. He gave his opinion on both
national and international questions.
making detailed suggestions for re-
organization OF the executive depart
ments at Washington and for crea-
tion Of an effective world court.

MARION. OHIO, Jan. abolition
OF the Richmond and other regional
Federal reserve banks. and the estab-
lishment of a centralized bank for the
United States, is being urged on
President Elect Harding by Repub-
lican leaders, II developed today.
In fact some OF the leaders are
said to have already sought the sup
port OF the next President in a plan
to make the creation OF a central
Federal reserve bank one of the
achievements" OF the incoming ad-
ministration. The consent OF Mr..
Harding is being sought 1t is said,
to make this fight.
Should these plans take shape a
stormy partisan fight early in the
Harding administration is predicted.
Indications are the proposal Is
being seriously considered here, al
though Harding is following his usual
custom OF saying nothing until he has
studied the reaction of public senti-
mcnt. 1t was regarded as Significant
however, that Senator Curtis. Re-
publican Senate whip, should i'm
mediatcly following a lengthy con-
ference with Harding. announce the
intention OF Offering amendments to
the Federal reserve act. These, he
said. would be designed to wipe ou,
the existing twelve regional banks and
substitute one central bank with
branches located at widely separate ted
geographical points.
This move. 1t is expected, will re-
open the bitter fight which was
v------>
publicans over the Aidrich plan somo
years ago. when essentially tho Same
scheme was proposed. Republicans
were unable to obtain action.
Republican leaders claim serious
defects exist In the present regional
bank system which would be wiped
out by establishment of n single bank
with greater Capitalization of con-
troll.
Democratic members OF both houses
OF Congress may be expected to op-
pose efforts in this direction. 1t is
possible that some opposition. might
arise in Harding's own ranks as some
OF his advisers are quoted as being
satisfied with the present arrange
ment Harding planned TO be busy
with visitors today and tonight was
TO attend district meeting OF the
