ASK FOR BIDS FOR A
LEASE OF HOSPITAL
Directors Will Pass On Bids When
Received BY Committee

Although the second general meet
ing of stockholders of the Durant
Memorial Hospital association was
held Monday, the hospital problem
was still unsolved at the conclusion
OF the meeting, but helpful signs were
manifest at the end.
1t seemed to be the consensus of
opinion that it is better to lease the
institution for not less than carrying
charges, than to allow it to sell under
the hammer at Sheriff's sale for the
$4,000 mortgage that is against it
and on which the interest is overdue.
The upshot of the meeting was that
committee was appointed to procure
bids from those interested on a five
year basis, and to submit the bids to
the directors who will proceed to
lease the property to the highest and
best bidders. 1t is provided that no
bid is to be considered that does not
equal interest, taxes, maintenance
and all minor carrying charges.
The committee comprises George
Mason, S. c. Boswell, o. r. Salmon,
Hugh Cox and Walter Archibald.

THREE MILLION IN WAR
FINANCE LOANS IN STATE
More Than s2,5OO,OOO Already Paid
To 20i Applicant Banks.

Agricultural loans in excess of
S3,075, 900 have been recommended bv
the Oklahoma committee of the war
finance corporation. OF this amount
over $2,5O0,0OO, has been paid to 201
applicant banks and is now in circu-
latien in the state.
The State chairman makes the fol-
lowing statement.
During the past 80 days there
has been material advance in ap-
ricultural products. We may attri-
butte this advance in prices to the fact
that banks which have been over-ex-
tended have not found it necessary
to force the farmer to sell at a re-
duced price. Instead they have plac-
ed their papers with the war finance
corporation. This has resulted in
taking off the market large amount
of farm products and livestock that
would otherwise have been sacri-
ficed. There has followed an ad-
vance in the price of corn of practi-
cally 100 per cent, in cattle of SO to
$40 head and a jump in the price
of hogs amounting to So hundred.
The reaction is general affecting all
lines of business, since the increased
price of farm products increases the
purchasing power of the farmer.
"War finance funds will not be
available indefinitely. however. Those
wishing to take advantage of them
must do so before July l, as no new
loans will be made after that date
unless the power of the war finance
corporation is extended by special act
of Congress. All loans made prior
to July l may be extended for 8 years
if the security is satisfactory"

BANKERS WOULD ASSUME
GUARANTY FUND WARRANTS
Bankers Association Wants State
aid and Changed Law

Willingness to assume liability for
the entire millions of dollars worth
of warrants outstanding against the
state guaranty fund, providing the
state government will lend its credit
to the fund for reasonable period
of time was the decision of the ex-
ecutive council of the State Bankers
association of Oklahoma, which clos
ed a two-day session in Oklahoma
City Saturday.
This formal pledge taken by the
state organization which comprises
the 535 banks in the state banking
system means, according to W. r.
Samuel, secretary. that every claim
will be paid off eventually and that
every depositor in a failed institu-
tion will get dollar for dollar just
as soon as possible.
The executive council expressed
confidence in the theory of guaran-
teeing bank deposits and decided on
amendments to the law which will
put an end to state banking troubles
if the legislature which meets next
winter will adopt the suggestions.
Briefly, here are the amendments
proposed by the state bankers execu-
tive council:
Increase fee for bank charters.
2-lnvestigate proposed incorpo-
rators before the charter is granted.
3-Have governor name bank COM
missioner. but subject to approval
of executive council Of association
and with consent of the senate.
4-Make depositor's guaranty fund
last aid instad of first as at present,
by enforcing double liability clause
against stockholders and exhausting
every resource to cash the banks
assets.
5-lncrease salaries of state bank
examiners to same plane as national
bank examiners.

OTHERS VIEWS.

Why is it that nearly al working
men are to-day educating their chill
dren, and those fathers and mothers
who have had little OF no education
themselves are the most anxious that
their sons and daughters receive the
best education that they can possibly
provide The answer Is easily OBJ
tanned. They, the parents, know the
value Of an education because they
were made to suffer during their lives
for want Of it. and secondly, the
fathers of today because of t4ade I'M
ions are earning enough money to
keep their children IN school instead
of dragging them, in their young
years, into the mill and mine. That's
the answer. The union has done it.
Do you think for one moment that if
were driving a team for the old
wage of ten dollars a week land, by
the way. | drove a pair of horses
twelve hours day for Swift & Com
pany in Boston for ten dollars a
week. do you honestly think that if
| had to continue at that wage |
could send my five boys through col
lege? If you think so, come out of
it-quit kidding yourself. II can't
be done. No, those chaps, at the age
Of eleven or twelve, would be down
hitehing up a single at four in the
morning, as Harry Lauder says "Just
the same as their daddy done before
them" So give the union credit for
something. Mike Casey MIXED cows
somewhere in Oregon for ten dollars
per month. His son graduated from
the University of California with
high honors and after returning from
the battle front in France, was EN-
ployed as civil engineer by the City
of San Francisco, where he was born.
When Bill Neer ran away from the
country and from slavery and arrived
in Chicago, he worked for just about
enough to eat, but he held on and
finally succeeded in getting a job on
milk wagon and eventually got on
in life earning enough to give his two
daughters the best education money
could possibly provide. So it is all
along the line. One other instance
Dave Walsh was Governor of old |
blue blooded Massachusetts, and Dave
is now in the United States Senate
and making coed. Jim Curley was at
the samestime, and is now, Mayor of
Boston. Both of them--the Governor
and the Mayor, are sons of Irish
laborers, two-dollar-a -day men. Both
of these gentlemen came from faith
ers who worked at one time, after
coming to this country, for about one
dollar a day or less. 1t is no rehec-
ton ON any man to come from par
ents who were poor. On the contrary,
it is a great honor to- any man to
owe his birth to poor, but honest
parents. Moral: The union has made
it possible for US to send our chill
dren to school and it is a safe bet that
the children of the workers, in few
years, will be the masters of our
country. Will they be true to the
principles of the fathers who strug
gled and fought against almost in
surmountable odds for them, or will
they forget that it was the trade UNI
ion that made it possible for them to |
be what they are--men of education |
and honor, instead of eringing slaves?

VOTERS DID THEIR DUTY.


The proposed new constitution was
voted down, which is proper. An
avalyanche of votes buried it so deep
that it will never be resurrected--
votes in protest against the most UNI
popular measure ever sought to be
foisted upon the people of the state
cast by people in all walks of life
who clearly saw their duty and did it.
And the state is better Off for it,
for it has taught big business and
those who represent it that it must
now take into account others than
themselves. 1t has proven that or
ganized labor does not stand alone
in its fight against oppressive meas
ures, and that the day of the over
lord, which has been short, has now
ended.
We will continue to live under the
old constitution, which may be out OF
date, until such time the people
demand new one, when they will see
to it that delegates are elected who
will represent the entire people in.
stead of a few.
The wonder of the whole thing is
that people with the brains the con-
stitutional delegates were supposed
to have had could ever have imagined
they could put such gigantic fraud
over on the citizens of the state OF
Illinois.

New York.-Officials of the Erie
railroad deny their property is
headed for a receivership. They say
the company has $6,000,000 cash.
1t might be added that the railroad
originated the scheme. to contract its
repair work. This makes it possible
to evade decisions by the railroad
labor board and secure cheap labor
and long hours. The railroad labor
board has ruled against the system,
but it continues.
