STATE BANKERS IN TOPEKA
Executive Committee of Kansas AS
SOciatfon Discuss Problems

Members of the executive committee
of the Kansas State Bankers associa-
ton are holding a special meeting in
lation. the state bank guaranty fund
and questions of liability of banks in
the handling of certain funds are
topics being discussed by committee
members
The question of branch banking is
one of the problems confronting the
committee. 1t is probable that the
committee will define a course regard
ing legislation to be sought next win
ter covering the branch bank ques-
ton. Members of the committee are
declared to be opposed to the plan.
Action may also be taken by the
banking committee regarding Iiabili-
ties of the guaranty fund and claims
now being presented on account of
failure of certain banks. One of these
problems is the suit of Barber county
to collect from the guaranty fund for
money in the Lake City State bank.
Members of the bankers committee
claim that the fund is protected
against the Barber county claim be-
cause special security had been pro-
vided.
General banking conditions also are
under discussion.
Members of the committee expect to
conclude their work late today. They
are are in executive session this af-
ternoon at their offices in the Kansas
Reserve State bank building.

BIG STATE CONTRACTS UP
Bids of Nearly Three-eezarters Mill
lion Before Board Here Today.

The big state construction contracts
are pending today before the state
board of administration. Bids have
been opened for construction of the
new s25o,ooo administration building
at Kansas university, units of the
! S40n, 900 power plant at the state PEN
itentiary and the $4,000 dormitory
building at Hays State Normal.
1t is hardly probable that contracts
will be awarded today on any of the
projects involving expenditure of
nearly three-quarters of million dol
lars in state funds. Both the prison
and state university plans have been
held up pending supplemental bids
or Investigations by state engineers.
The Hays contract may be awarded
late this afternoon.
Twenty bids were received in the
competition for construction of units
of the Lansing state prison over and
light plant. No contracts for this work
will be awarded until engineers have
had an opportunity to make comparl-
sons regarding phases of the bids.
There were three bidders for the
state university job. All were above
the estimate. Bids were received from
the Eberhardt Construction company
Of Sa1ina. Collins brothers. Kansas
City; and Arthur H. Newman, Des
Moines. iowa. Alternative bids and
probable changes in the present plans
are proba BILE as a result of failure OF
the state board to receive bids within
the appropriation and construction
estimates.
The state university bids were
opened this morning. All were re-
jected and new bids will be asked or
changes in plans considered.
Construction of a thirty-five-room
dormitory sufficient to provide quar-
ters for seventy-five girls is called for
in the Hays normal project. The
building is expected to cost about
s5O. 900. Contracts were let last week
for s150,0O0 dormitory at the state
uuiyerSity Lawrence.

Herrin. June 2S.-Reports still were
current today that maintenance men
were being warned by striking union
coal miners to leave their posts at
several mines near here but the
rumors could not be verified after in

the mine since the strike started April

miners union but the majority OF the
mines are kept in condition by union
miners who have been given permis-
sion to work by their officials as Is
provided in an agreement between
operators and miners.

STORES HOURS g TO 6
Half Hour in Morning To Be Given
Employees Soon.

At a reconsideration" meeting of
several prominent merchants held at
the Chamber of Commerce this morn
iE2 it was decided to give employees
an half hour in the morning instead
of in the evening.
This will cause the stores to open
at 9 O'Clock and close at 6 during July
and August. The representatives OF
the larger stores attending this morn
ing's meeting were firm in the opinion
that the buying public would not be
entirely satisfied with the $50 clos
ing rule. They also were sure that,
for the most part, the employees
would rather have the day shortened
during the cool mornings rather than
IN the evenings.
This action on the part of the larger
stores will annul the custom of three
years among members of the Mer-
chants association. The new opening
hour begins Saturday morning, July i.
Milton Tabor. secretary manager or
the Merchants association will notify
all members imn1 ediately of the new
action taken by the store managers.

Plan to Bring All States Into Line
Against 1t Is Formed.

Providence. r. L, June 2S.-A final
effort to bring all the states of the

Failing this, he declared. amendment
to the federal constitution was the only
alternative to overcome "a blight that
in its measure is more deplorable than

Responsibility for the prevention of
child labor was placed upon the indi-

Republican Leader Has Been

denomination Would Be Vindi-
cation of Tariff Policy.

Washington, June 2s.-Official and
political Washington turned away
from its tariff wrangling, the coal
crisis and kindred worries today and
watched with absorbing interest the
North Dakota primaries, in which one
of the most conspicuous legislators in
Washington in the last two decades is
fighting for his political life with an
excellent chance of losing 1t.
Private advices reaching the capital
from North Dakota indicate that Sem
ator Porter ]. McCumber, chairman
of the powerful senate finance COM
mittee and principal author of the ex-
isting tariff and bonus bills, will be
defeated for denomination in the Re
publican primary today by Lynn ].
Frazier, the Nonpartisan leagues ex-
governor.
Admit It's Close Fight.
McCumber's friends dispute the
leagues advance claims of a Frazier
victory.
They admit, however, that the re-
suit is going to be extremely close,
and some of the more pessimistic con-
cede that it '1ooks like Frazier" SEN
ator McCumber has told friends that
1t .'Iooks like $3.50 fight"
The contest in North Dakota today
is clear cut between Frazier and Nc
Cumber. There is another Republican
candidate, Ormsby McHarg, but ac-
cording to political leaders here, his
candidacy is not to be taken seriously
except in SO far as it affects the two
principals.
No Chance for Campaign.
While the quarrel in North Dakota
is principally a Republican one, the
Democrats are nevertheless deeply in
terested in it. Their probable candi-
date for senator is J. T. O'Connor of
Grand Forks, a Yale graduate. and the
Democrats are frankly hopeful that the
McCumber- Frazier feud will become so
intense as to split the party in No
vember allowing a Democrat to come
to the senate from North Dakota for
the first time in many years.
Senator McCumber has not cam
paigned his state this year. He has
been chained to Washington by his
fathership of the tariff and bonus bills
and his position as chairman of the fl
nance committee.
