Faulkner Farm Loan Squabble Re. suits in Victory for Reeves Cato
 Watson Faction.

The faction represented by John Reeves, Sam w. Watson and Will Cato, who busted the officers of the Faulkner County National Land Bank Association and then had their own offices declared vacant on the ground that a quorum of stockholders had not elected them, won decisive vic tory this afternoon when they were reelected by large majorities and two directors, said to be friendly to them, were elected by the stockholders of the association.
 Today's meeting, however, will be contested, it was stated by Mrs. c. V. Hinkle, secretary of the organization, on the ground that a quorum of the stock was still not represented. Ac- cording to the secretary's books bor- rowings totaling $122,90 were repre- sented in the meeting, out of a total of S242, 300 loaned to all members. This was slightly more than a ma- jority, but Mrs. Hinkle claimed that three of the largest borrowers were represented by their wives, and that proxies are not recognized in stock holders meetings.
 The meeting was finally assembled after 1 o'clock this afternoon, after an effort to hold meeting at 10 o'clock this morning had failed for want of a quorum. R. J. Steele presided. Nominations were made for the five positions of director end objection was raised to the distribution of a printed ballot containing 10 names, but it was finally agreed to use the back of the ballots upon which to write the names.
 Under the rules of the organization each stockholder may cast one vote for each $100 borrowed from the Federal Land Bank, with the provision that no one may cast more than 20 votes.
 V. D. Hill, Howard Johnston and Charles Leinhart were appointed tel Tears and after casting up the ballot announced the election of John Reeves, Will Cato, Sam w. Watson, L. J. Troutman and E. H. Edwards for directors for the present year. The result of the ballot was as follows:
