.SCHNTTHER TOSTART
BANK AT CULBERTSON
Governor Expected to Grant Charter
If Sam Stewart Says SO-SenatOr
to Use Influence.

A meeting of merchants was re-
Gently held at Culbertson when the
matter of opening a new bank at
Culbertson was under consideration.
Several Of those present expressed
themselves in favor of opening such
an institution. Fears were expressed
that a charter would not be obtained
for a new bank at this time, but this
fear was dispelled when an assur-
ance was given that Senator Schnitz-
ler's influence with the Bankers As
sociation was sufficient to induce that
body to tell Governor Erickson to
grant the charter.
APPOINTMENTS
RECALLED
It will be remembered that the
Governor appointed the attorney fer
the Bankers Association on the Bank
Code Commission in face of furi-
Gus protest from nearly all citizens
of the state outside the Bankers. This
Attorney, Sam V. Stewart, is said to
be the man who delivered the Bank
ers' orders to the Governor. 1t is
expected in Culbertson that he will
tell the Governor to grant a charter
to the new bank if he is requested to
do so by Senator Schnitzler, who is
a wheelhorse of the Bankers Bloc in
the Montana State Senate.

WHEELER PROTEST
Chairman Borah of the Senate For

that Kellogg excluded Saklatvala be-
cause of a speech he delivered in the
British parliament, showing the reign
of cruel oppression practiced on the
people of India by the ruling class
of England. Senator Walsh, who has
just returned from England, states
that Kellogg was presumably acting
at the instance of the Baldwin gov
ernment. In telegram to the Pro-
ducers News last week, Senator
Wheeler takes the same stand and
states that Saklatvala did not say
anything more extreme than Thomas
Jefferson said over hundred years
