An appeal was made to the Comptroller of the Currency at Washington and last week the State Bank Commissioner was advised that the permit would not he issued and that the action of the First National of Corning would not be approved. It is possible that the matter will be brought to the attention of the legislature although it is believed that there will not be a sufficient sentiment in favor of branch banking to bring about any change in the laws. For the time being the warfare between the state banks and the branch bank ing system will be fought out before the American Bankers Association

The nationwide protest against the establishment of branch banks is reaching Arkansas. The cOntro- versy has been growing for some time and is becoming acute in some of the larger centers like St. Louis, Chicago and New York. If left un- impeded the tendency of many of the larger banks in the financial centers appears to be the establish ment of branches or offices in small CT communities where they come into direct competition with local banking institutions. It has been the policy of the comptroller of the currency to refuse permits for na- tional banks to establish branches in states where the state banks have not similar authority. The Arkan- sas statutes are silent on the sub ject. The Arkansas banking laws do not authorize branches of state banks, although 22 other states have

 The man on the street believes what the politicians tell him. He believes that America is selfish and greedy, and that she would not help the world if she could"

but there is a great deal more to be done before it can attain the position among the universities of the country that is in keeping with the needs of the state. While Ar kansas has done well, many states have done so much better that a comparison is not favorable. The University of Arkansas should be an institution equal to the best in the country. This means an eX- penditure of millions of dollars but this must be done eventually for a university education must be provided for every boy and girl in the state who can possibly take ad- vantage of it.

DELAYED DISARMAMENT.

It develops that the disarmament treaty nesolia'eu at Washington last winter to the very great sa'sc ion of the American people, yet far from being effective Most Americans, perhaps, have assumed that all of the signatory nations have fulfllled ther part of the obligation. matter of fact, two of thehl France and Italy, have nof begun to do so. lhey have not even ratified the treaty.
 The United States, Great Britain and Japan appear to have gone ahead, in good faith reducing their naval tonnage according to agreement At leasl 'hes have all made considerable progress in that direction But France and Italy have continued delaying the ,nattar on one preext and another and now ]ns- tifying their delay by pointing to the perlls Ill the Near East situation.
 That excuse is not convincing It IS the BTU ish navy that is bearing brun of the Turkish men, are not the French Italian and Britain seems to think quite capable of handling the situa ton without using warships marked by the treaty for the scrap heap. The Turks and their neghpors have navies.
 Moreover, the way to disarm is to dlsarm There will never any real disarmament unless start IS made and this is good a time to start as there has ever been will be.
