States Cash Resources
Increase 1922, 264 in
Period Of 10 Months

Helena, Dec. 30.-(By The Asso-
.ciated Press.)-Cash resources of
Montana's state government increased
S., ,264 during the 1a-month period
from December /. 1920, to June 80,
1922, according to the biennial report
of State Auditor George p. Porter,
submitted to Governor J. NJ. Dixon
this morning.
The bonded indebtedness of the
state increased sS33,26S, 100 and out
standing warrant indebtedness $685.
752. according to the report.
The biennial report covers the
t9-month period because Of the action
of the last legislature changing the
end of the fiscal year from November
80 to June 80.
Assets of the state, consisting OF
cash in the t~reasurer's office and in
banks, warrants, bonds and secured
notes for farm loans, war defense and
seed loan funds, show a gain from
$13.0 963 to SIT, 191, POI.
The statement OF transactions of all
funds in the treasury shows the cash
balance on December 1, 1920, to have
been S~1,272,O15 and receipts and
transfers during the 19-month period
to have been $26,S11,2S9. Expendi-
lures during the same time were $24,-
949,292, leaving the cash balance or
June 30, 1922, $3,134,O12.
The report says:
1T is my 1lrm conviction that the

and would provide for issuance OF tax

of new tax exempt securities at the

Pointing to the diversity of opinion
on the Anderson-Lenroot bill, Mr..
Mellon in his letter added:
In view of the substantial objec-
tons to the bill already pointed out,
| believe that the most helpful course
that can be pursued now is to adopt
a substitute measure, along the lines
If the Capper bill, with the suggested
extension of the life of the war fin

This would adapt u present banking
system to the needs Of agriculture and

Jams, upon which there is virtual
agreement.
Would Use Reserve Banks
Il would admit to discount in the
federal reserve banks, agricultural
paper with q maturity up to nine
months, secured by commodities in
l<ccess of orderly marketing, or by
livestock which is being fattened for
market. To this there can be nj sub
S%tcntial objection. 1t is safe, and the
testimony before your committee shows
that it will be helpful.
"A rural credits program like that
e bodied in substance in the Capper
bill, would draw capital and credit
from available sources for use where
needed by the agricultural and live
stock industries. and would accomplish
this on a business basis. without de-
bending on government money or tax
exemptions. AT the same time. it
would enlarge the facilities of the fed
eral reserve system to provide further
for agricultural discounts, and / hope
so as to encourage larger membership
among eligible banks in the agricultural
districts. and would extend up to $25,-
coo the limit on loans by federal land
hanks. Altogether it presents a COM
prehensiye plan of permanent relief or
practical lines .

charged Robb with having permitted
laxity in the management of the Ii
quor, and in which Robb called his
jailer a liar and doubled his fists.
It's an atrocious lie," J.. $. Hill,
proprietor of the American Printing
& L~ithographing company, said when
told that McMurray had charged that
he bought more than seventy quarts
of whisky from the preacher-sheriff
on August 8.
He admitted, however, that he had
tried to obtain liquor from the sher-
ifs office. but declared he had been
unsuccessful.
Mr.. Hill declared he knew of no
reason why Jailer McMurray should
name him in connection with such a
liquor transaction.
