 The site bankers association, which Is responsible for the organ ization of the vigilantes, recently re- ported that during the six months ending July 1 there was not bank robbery in 1owa-a record unsur- passed in recent years in the flaw keye state.
 Losses sustained by banks and customers in 56 robberies during 1921, before the vigilantes were or ganized, totaled s22S,97S.S4. During the following year, when the vigil lantes were just getting under way there were 30 robberies and losses of s54,941.S5. But S30,000 was ob tained in the year just ended.
 Attention Of Bankers.
 The record of Iowa, the only state having such an organization, has at tracted the attention of bankers and authorities throughout the states and a number have visited here and ob- tained a workine knowledge of the system with a view O. having it introduced in their own states.
 The Vigilantes, armed with army pistols and rifles or saWed-off shot guns and the authority of deputy sheriffs, are, for the most part, eX- service men, trained in the use of guns. They are subject to call 24
