FOR REPUTATION, SIS, 900
Colorado Salesman Sues Salina Man
Following Bank Deal.

The reputation of John r. Stanley,
a Colorado salesman. is worth S25.0
to him. according to the damage suit
he filed in the federal court here to-
day against Martin J. Berry of Salina.
Stanley alleges that on January l g..
1920. at Salfna, Berry induced him TO
purchase an oil and gas lease in OF
tawa county and to write therefor his
personal check for $3.50. drawn on the
Planters State bank of Salina. Stan
ley says he told Berry he had no ac-
count there, but that Berry claimed
to know the bank officials personally
and promised to have the check hon
ored. After the purchase, Stanley
says, he transferred the land to Berry,
but that the latter failed to fix it up
with the bank officials, who issued a
warrant charging forgery.
Stanley says he was arrested at
Newton and spent much time and
money getting cleared of the charge.
He claims that Berry's purpose was
malicious and prompted by envy.
Prior to that time. he claims, he was
well and favorably known thruout
Kansas but that the notoriety of his
arrest has impressed many of his Gus
toners that he is crook, thus ruin
ing his business

SAYS SPECTATORS TO BLAME
Lack of Credit Also Causes Wide
Breach in Market Prices.

Madison, Wis. Feb. 3.-Speculation
and lack of proper credit facilities
were declared by Governor Blaine to-
day to be the important factors which
cause a great breach between the
market price of commodities paid by
consumers and the price received by
producers.
He was speaking at a get together"
market conference here. Boards of
trade and brokerage concerns were
said by the governor to be the main
instruments of speculation.
IL think experience has taught that
those two agencies are responsible for
the long and torturous road from the
farm to the table," he said, advocat-
ing federal regulation of such con-
Germs.
Creation of a system of credit ex-
tension thru state banks supplemented
by cooperative banking was suggested
as a means of stabiliZing industry and
of preventing price fluctuations of a
character favorable to speculators.
