To Investigate Fathers
Super s t j t o n s

Winona, Mimi, Jan. Chief of
Police Riebau conferred with the
mayor and other city officials today
on whether to open the graves of
Frances Bloch and Joseph Bloch,
children of Thomas Bloch, who is al
legged to have opened the graves and
beheaded the skeleton of his daugh-
ter because of superstition that her
spirit was causing family mystery.
The death of five sons since the
daughter died five years ago is said
to have driven the father frantic. He
believed in an old superstition, he
said, that the only way to end deaths
in his family was to behead his
daughters body and place the skull
at her feet. Bloch confessed opening
the graves but said he found the
body decomposed and did not toucn
it. Police may open the graves to
investigate within a few days.

Rapid City, Jan. THE circuit

daily with spectators interested in
the trial of Steve Bodish, who is
charged with the murder Of Monte
Thompson, a wild west rider and
cook, at local cafe during the
American Legion convention in Rap

The securing of jury consumed
many hours, the attorneys for the
prosecution and defense exercising
the greatest care in the examination
of men called for jury duty in the
case.
Bodish, during the court session
occupies a place near his attorneys.
He does not appear at all nervous
and exhibits keen interest in all the
proceedings, which are of SO much
Importance to him and may result
in depriving him of his freedom dur
ing the remainder of his life.
His attorneys will make q hard
fight to secure his acquittal, while
the prosecution is equally determin-
ed to secure conviction, If posi-

REPORT O|vSVV|FT
& CO. S BUSINESS
TRADE PROFIT OF $4,000, 900
SHOWN--OFFSET BY LOSS OF
$40, O,OOO.OOO IN INVENTORY
VALUES.

Chicago, Jan. 7.-Although Swift
& Co., packers, earned a trading pro-
fit of more than $12,000,000 in the
fiscal year ended November 5, 1921,
this profit was more than onset by
a loss of $20,0O0.O0O in inventory
values, making the net loss for the
year s7,S12,291. After payment OF
dividends aggregating s12, 900
the final deficit was $19,S12,291,
thereby reducing the surplus to $751;
739,991. In the preceding fiscal
year the company reported net prof
its of S5,170,3S2, but a deficit of
$6,S29,61s after payment of diyi-
dends.
The drastic readjustment is shown
by the fact that inventories were re-
duced $57,534,000; accounts receiv-
able, s32,138,O00; accounts payable
$8,092,0o0, and notes payable, $59,-
ISL, 900. Bank loans are the small
est since 1915. Current assets are
204 per cent of current liabilities.
Aside from the fall in values,
Swift & Co., did a good business.
Gross sales exceeded 100000, 900,
compared with slightly over 1,100,-
600, 900 in 1920. The decrease in
tonnage was only about per cent
Our current business from month
to month has been fairly satisfactory
so that with inventory losses now
completely written off. We believe
we are on a sound basis for the fu-
ture," President Louis F. Swift said
in his report at the annual stock
holders meeting yesterday. I'm fact
the situation has been so encourag-
ing during the last three or four
months that nothing short of anoth-
er general trade depression can keep
us from continuing to earn profit
during our present fiscal year.
''It should be understood that our
reason for being unable to show a
profit for the IL months is due large
ly to the fall in prices of commod-
tiles on hand During the prosper
Gus years of the war we provided
for the decline by appropriating
large amounts to surplus in order to
maintain the company in sound fl
nancial condition, enabling us to con-
tinue the payment of regular divi-
dends. The prospects are that Swift
& Co., will continue the payment of
dividends"

Washington, Jan. president
Harding was said tonight by mem
bers of the senate agricultural bloc
to have indicated to bloc leaders at
conference yesterday, his disap-
proval of bloc-sponsored legislation
providing for farmer representation
on the federal reserve board.
Views of the president on the leg
islation which is to be taken up in
the senate for final consideration
January II. were outlined to Sena-
tor Kenyon of Iowa, and Capper of
Kansas. both republicans and bloc
leaders, who called at the white
house, accompanied by Senator Kel-
logg of Minnesota, republican.
None of the three senators would
discuss the visit, but other members
of the agricultural bloc said it was
their understanding that the presi-
dent had indicated his disapproval
of the legislation. Some of the bloc
members said that the president
went so far as to indicate he might
veto the bill if passed, but other
members said this was not their un-
derstanding.
The president was said by bloc
leaders to have indicated in every
way his intention to promote the in
tresests of the farmer but that the
pending legislation would tie the
hands of the executive with respects
to appointments.

State Bank Deposits
Reflect Depression

Mitchell, Jan. 7.-While South
Dakota's bank deposits reflect the
financial depression which has
swept over the country in the past
year and a half, nevertheless each
citizen in the state should have $306
cash saved, according to Doane Rob
inson, state historian. Mr.. Robinson
bases his assertions on the fact that
the bank deposits in the state at the
end of June, 1921, totalled $780,
454,970. Nine months previous to
that date the state bank deposits
reached the total of $251,S04,649.45
showing decrease of $47,650,321.
The greater part of this shrinkage
Mr.. Robinson says, is due TO the en-
ormous losses sustained by the farm
ers in the price shrinkage of their
crops and the fact that they have
been compelled to use their surplus
to pay their bills. He points out that
the average saving in South Dakota
in 1920 was $3S7, and this average
shows a decrease of $S1 for the year.

OUTH DAKOTA, SATURDAY, JANUARY I, 1922.

eight banks of the city shows APP
proximately 1919 0epositors who
have savings accounts with them
which means that an average of $13
is being paid to each in interest.
Bankers declare the spirit of thrift
in Sioux Falls Is increasing and that
many were far1visioned neough to
lay aside for the so-called rainy
day." One banker said that it is
the thrift and frugality of all the
people in every class that will ulti-
mately bring the country back to a
safe and sound basis in all lines of
social and commercial activities and
he thinks that people are more prone
to save than ever in the past. All of
the bankers unite in expressing the
opinion that they have noticed an in
crease in the number of small ac-
counts opened.

THE PROGRESS
OF PROHIBITION
WIDE RANGE OF OPINION AS TO
DRY LAW EFFECT ON
CRIME.

New York, Jan. 1.-Two years of
oihoibition have resulted in increas-
ed drunkenness and crime in many
parts of the United States, reports
of police chiefs gathered by the
United Press today showed.
The same two years of the same
prohibition have been great de-
crease in drunkenness and crime, ac-
cording to theirs.
Chief Williams, of Denver, for in
stance, reports that crime, drunken
ness and the number of arrests have
tremendously increased since Janu-
ary L, 1920. Chief Flanagan, of
Bridgeport, Conn, reports that crime
drunkenness and the number of ar
rests have decreased ever since the
town went dry.
In Chicago, Chief Fitzmorris an
nounces a general decrease in all
things wrong, but suggests the po-
lice may deserve the credit for this.
Lincoln, Neb., police report a purei
atmosphere but Des Moines, Ia, and
Norfolk, Va, have found crime and
drunkenness on the increase.
The reports show that In seven
large cities crime increased within
the past two years while in five II
was reported to be on the wane. In
six drunkenness increased while IL
seven the tendency was the Other
way.

MISERY OF RUSS
FAMINE VICTIMS
MANY THAT LIVE ARE WORSE
OFF THAN DEAD.

Moscow, Jan. Russia has be-
gun the year 1922 with eight months
of unspeakable horror before her and
the terrible dread that next summer
may only slightly relieve the gnaw-
ing famine.
AT Tsaratsin, Saratoff, Samara,
Ufra, Orenbrug and Kazan, frozen
bodies are stacked high awaiting
burial In trenches which workmen
cannot prepare fast enough for the
victims Of famine, exposure and ty-
phus-and every day the situation
is growing worse.
American relief workers who orig
inally cautiously placed the number
OF probable deaths in the famine
area this winter at 100000 now
say that 100000 is a low estimate,
and may say the number may reach
10 100000 or even more. 1t is pre-
dicted the typhus epidemic probably
will be worse that Russia has ever
suffered.
The Americans are feeding nearly
100000 children and the British
and various other organizations are
furnishing nourishment for at least
100000 under the most dangerous
conditions,
Typhus is SO prevalent throughout
all of the olga region and in Turkes-
tan all passenger service to and
from these regions.
George Newes of the British Save
The Children Fund, reports he saw
$50 frozen bodies, many of whom
were children, buried in trench at
Caratoff In one day. He says train
loads of refugee children underfed
and scantily clad, are riding from
the famine area in such a pitiabie
condition that the living children are
worse off than dead.
The soviet government has agreed
to grant the American relief admin
istration the use of 500 locomotives
and 5000 cars required to move the
supplies which the $20.000,000 just
appropriated by the United States
will provide. 1t is estimated that
200 cars and five locomotives will be
required daily for 40 days.

SOLDIERS BONUS
IS PROMISED D
MoNDELL SAYS CONGRESS WILL
PASS THE BILL.

: Washington, ID. c., Jan. RE
newed promie of the enactment OF
soldiers bonus bill was given by
Majority Leader Mondell to the
house today in outlining the legisla-
tive program for the present session
of congress.
Il think" said Mr.. Mondell, lit is
now generally understood that we
shall proceed to the early considera-
tion of, and in due time, in this ses-
sion, enact an adjusted compensa-
ton act for veterans of the world
war"
After praising the satisfactory re-
suits which the budget system al
ready has been giving in the pre-
paration of the annual appropriation
bills, Mr.. Mondell said:
There are number of measures
now well along in their legislative
way which we expect to see complet-
ed during this session. The more
important of these is the tariff bill
the reasonably early enactment of
which is highly important and earn
estfy hoped for. Other measures of
Importance which we hope to see
enacted during the session are the
bill prvoidng for commission for
the refunding of the foreign debt,
and the bill for the reclassification OF
federal employees.
1t is highly important that we
shall before the close Of the session
outline program of national parti-
cipation In highway construction Gov
ering period of two or. perhaps
three years 1t is, in my opinion
important and desirable that the
congress shall at this session enact
proper legislation for the reappor-
tionment of seats in congress under
the 18th decennial census.
Other legislation that will DC
scheduled for consideration during
the session includes legislation nee
essary for the establishment OF q
permanent policy touching our mer-
chant marine, and legislation max
ing further provision for the estab-
lishment, of more favorable condi-
tions in agriculture. The anti-lynch-
ing bill, which will be taken up for
consideration promptly, is expected
to pass the house in the very near
future"

Finds $500
In Mattress

Springfield, Mimi, Jan. w
Falk, who resides near Lamberton,
came into possession of $500 in a
peculiar manner, according to re-
ports heard here. The money was
found hidden in an old mattres
which had been discarded by the
Falk family, 1t Is said.
Eleven years ago, it is said, MRS.
Falk became insane and took $500
and hid it in sorae part or the
house. For a long time search was
continued for the missing money,
but it could not be found. When the
old mattress was discarded, few
days ago, it is said that small sht
was noticed in the covering, and an
investigation resulted in the finding
of the money which had been hid
den there many years ago.
