Efforts Being Made to
Save Banks of Northwest
CONTINUED from page u


ment, named bv President Coolidge,
went at their task today after con
ferences lasting until midnight IN ell
forts to find prompt and eitectuaii
means of bolstering up the credit oil
the northwest.
Chicago and midwestern banking
representatives from several sCaUes'
including the Dakotas and Minnesota,
met with the federal officials. Henry
M. Dawes, comptroller OF currency
Eugene Meyer, Jr., managing dltec-
tor of the War Finance corporation
and j. II. Cunningham, MEMBER OIL
the federal reserve board.
George r. James, another member
of the federal reserve board was TO
sit in the conference today.
SILENT ON PLANS
Although Comptroller Dawes, IN
charge has applied himself to the
banking problems of the norunWest
since he and his party arrived, ne
has withheld making any puDlc
statement of just how it was plan
ned to alleviate conditions IN South
Dakota, where a dozen banks nave
been closed since January l, TWO OF
them yesterday in Montana, where a
similar situation prevails and where
two banks were closed, and IN MIN
nesota and Nebraska.
Before leaving Washington 1t was
stated that the Dawes party mem
bers had been designated by Presl-
dent Coolidge himself to go to the
relief of the western banking sltua-
ton. Dispatches from Washington
said they planned their conference
with middle western bankers IN an Ell
fort to gather sufficient funds to meet
the requirements eff the small banks
in the affected states where farmers
have been unable to meet their OBJ
legations and many small banks and
some large ones, have been unable
to carry on under the strain of IN
ability to collect from the farmers
and others Indirectly affected.
The recent closing eff the Sioux
Falls National bank and the taking
over of the Sioux Falls Trust and
Savings bank by the state banking
department of South Dakota, are
said to have caused heavy withdraw
| ais from other banks. to have ad-
versely affected business, and to have
increased the belief that outside help
must be given the northwest.
Although money withdrawn from
the banks suffering such Withdrawals
still is in the communities, it has
been taken out Of the usual channels
and, according to reports from Sioux
Falls, the sales of thrift stamps
treasury certificates and the increase
in postal savings deposits has been sc
large that the postohice there was
forced to increase its force of en-
ployes.
The earlier conferences today were
largely confined to consideration OF
the problem with Chicago bankers.

perintendent of Banks l.. @. Shelton.
No statement of the financial con-
ditiOn Of the bank was made yester-
day by deputy examiner or by the Off
Gals and it win be several days before
complete examination of its affairs
is finished.
The action eff the officials of the
bank followed a series of heavy
Withdrawals, amounting to about
100000 last week, and was taken
to protect the interests Of the depos-
itors.
The statement Of the bank made at
the time of the last call, December
81, 1923, showed footing Of 1852, 995.
81, with deposits aggregating S753,
69130. Officials of the bank and
those who had looked into its paper
yesterday were optimistic as to the
condition Of the bank and expressed
the opion that the examination would
disclose it was solvent.
There was talk Of an affort to re-
organize and reopen it and also liqua-
dating and the appointment of a re-
Ceiver. 1t was said that the officers
Of the bank felt that the continual
drain that is being made through de
posits placed with the government
made it advisable to close.

on the part Of Moe to meet House,
which is uneXplainable. House has as
good a reputation as Moe They are
both about equal financially. House
will have as far to come to the match
as Aloe and has as much to lose as
Nels has, but he is willing to come at
any time If Moe will only sign up.
| am absolutely confident that out
side Of terrible blizzard, the two
wrestlers would be greeted by a
packed house at a good admission
price and / cannot help but believe
that Nels Moe, who has lived in this
neck of the woods as long as he has,
must also know that they will be
greeted by a packed house Then
why all this worry about the financial
end of the game. That is already as
sured.
But on the contrary, | would sug-
gest that the American Legion have
both wrestlers put up a guarantee for
their appearance and if either Of
the wrestlers refused to go on the mat
at the appointed time without a good
and sufficient reason, he would for
felt the money.
| believe that arrangements can be
made in case Of adverse weather to
take care of the expenses and post
pone the match until favorable wealth
er. But eff course any number of
ifs can be used if one does not wish
to meet the other in a contest Of
this kind
From all / can hear from the cham
pions Of both wrestlers, House feels
that it would be worth the battle. win
CIR lose, to meet Moe and settle for
once and all the talk about the superb
ority Of the two men, even if he did
not get cent out of the battle, which
result is not likely to occur.
The chances are that a house
amounting to from $500 to $1,000 will
witness the match and of this amount
terms can be made on a percentage
basis or winner take all. Now if Moe
is the sport he says he is, and
believe he is, he will not forget that in
order to get the big money he has
got to prove himself. Jack Reddick
came down from Moose Jaw and he
came on practically no guarantee, and
he is a very good man in his class,
ranking, | believe, higher in the pug
ilistic world than Moe does in the
wrestling game in his class Moe
should be as good a sport as Reddick
He came twice and Sammy Trap
also came down from Noes country
and took a Knockout in one of his
battles and neither one of these two
men drew nearly the crowd that would
attend a House-Moe wrestling match.
Both Moe and House are, you
might say, local men, coming from
Outlook and Archer, and they have
created an intense amount of interest
in their arguments over who is the
better man, as only local men can do,
but this "hot air" has reached the
limit.
| would suggest, without trying to
run your paper, that if these two
wrestlers do not make some attempt
at getting together beside throwing
lot of mush, that you refuse to use
the valuable space in your paper to
disgust the readers, when it can be
used for something more useful and
beneficial to the public.
Hoping to see this letter in print,
/ remain,
A WRESTLING FAN.

LEGISLATURE STILL IN
SESSION AT HELENA
Continued from page y


Scharnikow has won in his fight to
investigate the various warrants
which have been made out from the
different funds.
The stand patters are doing their
best to hurry the completion of the
session before any one can get in
legislation that will permit the in
vestigation of several departments of
the state which seem to be in need
of a thorough overhauling.
Following is a telegram from SEN
ator Taylor received the fore part of
the week and nothing has appeared
additional since that time with the
exception of passing a few appropria-
ton measures.
Helena Mont, Jan. %, 1924.
Producers News,

Legislature organized this
morning. Harmony complete.
Governor and enemies appear
Joined. Governor says he will not
submit revenue measure in mess
age. Suggested Legislature could
finish in one day knowing it can
not be done. Failure to submit
revenue proposition will mean
DiXOn's Waterloo politically.
Company wants Snort session and
so does Dixon. Everybody try
ing to make it as short as pos
sible but Scharnikaw stands pat
/ by resolution to investigate exact
status of warrants. Practically
every member present.
