Plainviiew Man Charged
with Bank Shortage
CONTINUED from first naee,


Four days after Sylvester disao-
peared G. F. Sylvester, cashier of
the bank and his brother, telegraphed
A. j. Veigel, state superintendent of
banks. An order closing the bank
followed.
Examiners worked three days, and
on Saturday reported that no irregu
]arities had been uncovered. Within
an hour after the report, the chief
examiner left for St. Paul suddenly,
asking Mr.. Veigel to attend con-
ference Sunday.
At the conference it was disclosed
that a shortage had been uncovered.
County Attorney Foley of Wabasha
and Mrs. Anna Fitzgerald, sheriff, left
at once for Plainview, and were iii
consultation Monday with examin-
ers.
Someone has made practice Of
taking mortgages and notes which
have been paid and listing them a.
live assets" Mr.. Veigel said.
"This was made possible by care
less.less of. bank patrons, who did
not demand the Cancelled certificates
when paying their notes.
"A prominent Dank patron lett
Plainview for California, and left in
the bank large amount of mortgages
and commercial paper which the bank
was to handle for him. This paper
all had been listed as bank assets.
A few hours before the warrant
was issued, members of the Sylvester
family said they had abandoned a
search for the missing man. They
said they were satisfied to work out
away to reopen the bank
The missing president left Plain
view shortly after p m. Saturday,
Feb. %, saying he was going to Min
neapolis. Instead, it was found
later he took a train to Eyota, then
to Winona, and caught night tram
into Chicago. He was carrying a
small handbag. Since then no word
has been received from him.

the saving of the peoples money,
through careful stewardship on the
part of the government officials.
The President made it clear that
he is opposed to anyone using a party
label for the purpose of being elect
ed to any office: and when having
achieved that end to foresake the plat
form on which he was elected. There
is no doubt that the President
considers such an action as abe
,trayal of the individuals constitu-
emit. The President finds no fault
with men or women who change partJ
labels because of sincere convictions,
theirs is that right, but candidates
who preach one thing on the stump
and practice another after election
do not meet with his approval.
In the matter of the tariff, the
President made it known that he
stands as firmly today as he ever mas
in favor of a tariff that would pro-
tect the citizens of the country, no
matter what section is involved. He
desires that the farmer he given bene-
fit of adequate protection. He de-
sires that the workman shall be CIV
en- such protection as will enable him
to receive wages that will provide an,-
pie comforts for him and his family.
He is for the protection of the Ameri-
can standard in living, which is the
highest in the world. The inaugural
address of President Coolidge was
delivered with characteristic simplicity
and earnestness. 1t was the kind OF
message that the people of the United
States expected him to deliver. It
was a reaffirmation of their con-
fidence in him, as expressed by the
millions of people who voted for him

ton of whether this system would

Senator C. E. Adams, author OF the
highway refinancing bill, which was
recommended for passage by the
senate highway committee obtained
special order of business for the
bill in the senate. Spirited debate
is expected on This bill. Disposal
of this measure will be followed
quickly by action on the gasoline tax
and motor vehicle schedule bills
The new highway traffic code bill
which carries a highway patrol pro-
vision, already is on general orders
in the senate and will be reache
within 10 days, probably on special
order following bond refinancing.

what is the most popular, the
commonest theme of conversation at
the American dinner table? You
are wrong. 1t isn't prohibition, base
ball or the movies; it has nothing
to do with reparatlons, the weather
or the ku Kiux Khan. The really
popular topic of dinner table con-
versation in the bosom of the aver
age American family is SO common,
SO universal, it comes up with such
unfailing regularity many millions
of times every evening that it has
become as automatic as breathing
or scratching. Here is sample of the
typical dinner table talk:
Mother-Do you want carrots OF
string beans, Charles?
Charles-(Snifing derisively)
Don't want old carrots
Observation-Disclosures vcgeta-
bles are good for you, son. Let me
give you some of these nice carrots.
Charles-Naw, don't like ern.
Don't want to eat 'em.
Mother-But Charles, you must eat
something besides meat and dessert.
Here's a helping of string beans. Be
a good boy and eat them.
Charles-(petulantly but frmly)-I
don't want to eat old beans-they
make me sick.
(rcsignedly )-Well, if they
make you sick, I won't force you
to eat them. But you must drink
your milk. I insist on that.
Charles I don't wanna drink milk.
I don't like milk. 1t makes me sick.

pie and gets it.

larity as an indoor sport is the task

PIONEER SERVICE

Americas most cherished quality is
the pioneer spirit Of it's people. The
United States postal system. in the
spirit of America, has been a pioneer
in the 18th, 18th, and 10Th centuries
and now, with the opening of the goth
century, it is abreast Of the foremost
in progressive ingenuity and invention
and service.
1t was mail courier who blazed
the first trail between New York and
Boston.
1t was the mail coach which
brought into existence the old Bos-
ton New York Philadelphia B Baltimore
turnpike-the first great American
highway.
Benjamin Franklin, as deputy post
master general, made this post road
serving the scattered colonial settle
1nents show a greater income than
the principal post road between Eng
land and Scotland.
Richard Fairbanks, who conducted
an Office in Boston tavern in 1859
to receive letters from ships was the
first colonial postmaster.
Benjamin Franklin in ITS became
the first Postmaster General of the
United States.
Railroads were patronized by the
Postal Service from the time the first
few miles of track were laid. Subsi-
dies through the Postal Service made
possible the maintenance Of many of
the early railroads.
The railway post Office was adopted
in the United States in 1864.
The Postal Service has always been
on the heels of the pioneer settlers
as they advanced westward. Service
to-day to Point Barrow on the north
ernmost tip Of Alaska, and to the
isolated miners in the Businesses of
the mountains, bears out the motto,
Where American citizens go, the
mails CO."
Gunmed postage was adopted in
the United States in 1847.
Postmaster General Montgomery
which has resulted in the formation
Of the Universal Postal Union. A con-
crete example of this international
cooperation is found in the fact that
the Letter sent for S cents to Austria
liza to-day cost $2.04 in 1857.
1t was the demands of the Postal
Service which first brought night
trains on the railroads, and the first
fast mail trains" were followed by
fast passenger trains.
The money-order system was
adopted in 1864.
Postmen to-day bring mail to the
| doors of millions of homes. Free de-
livery of mail service in cities began
in 1868.
Postal savings banks, the greatest
savings bank in the world was start
ed in 1911.
....R. F. d. service brings the city
to the country. This rural service was
started in 1896.
Parcel Post was adopted in 1918.
Air mail service was started May
IS, 1918. For two yearSit has been oper-
ating an advancing service on trans
continental route 5000 miles long
from New York to San Francisco,
and earned in 1922 and 1928 the hon.
or Of making the greatest contribu-
ton to the progress of American avi-
alton.
Pioneering never stops in the Pos
tai Service. Faster, faster, faster the
relay must be made. This summer the
Postal Service, il Congress agrees,
will inaugurate through service, 2s
hours. between New York and the
! city at the Golden Gate. One-third
Of this journey viii be at night.
