towns in this part of the State. His
first trip of this kind will be to Belle
Fourche, about one hundred miles
north of the Summer White House,
where a rodeo will be held next
month. He has accepted an invitation
to visit Deadwood the following month,
and it Is expected that other engage.
ments of this nature will shortly be
announced. He has made it clear to
those, who have been discussing these
trips with him, that wherever he
visits he wants to go merely as a
neighbor and spectator and not as
"the orator Of the day." He has no in.
tention of making any addresses.
The President, since leaving Wash
ington, has demonstrated that he
wants to get closer to the people of
the West-to better know the dirt
farmers and stock raisers. The basis
for this belief was his oft-repeated
question to the crowds at the railroad
stations during his journey through
South Dakota of How are crops"
Discusses Farm Relief.
The farm relief subject was preached
to him for the first time since arriv.
ing in the Black Hills yesterday after
noon by State Senator j. L. Robbins
of this city, who owns and operates
a large ranch. 1t was he who intro
duced the resolution in the State Sen
ate inviting the President to spend
the Summer in the Black Hills as a
guest of the State.
During his talk with the President
Senator Robbins took occasion to con-
graduate him on his veto of the
McNary-Haugen bill last Winter,
which legislation had the militant sup
port of the South Dakota delegation
in Congress. According to tie Sena-
tors report of the interview, he told
the President that he had been a
rancter for many years. to which the
President quickly replied that that
was all the more reason why the SEN
ator should be thankful the McNary-
Haugen bill did not become u law.
Senator Robbins, while discussing
the farm relief subject, stated that the
agriculturists in this section will not
find their way out OF their difficulties
through Legislation. He belle yes the
tariff on products Of Eastern indus
tries should be reduced. The Tresi-
dents IDEAS regarding cooperative
marketing meet with his approval.
Welcomes Discussions.
Instead of avoiding discussions of
this nature while he is out here, to
all intents and purposes, on a Vaca-
ton, Mr.. Coolidge has made 1t plain
that he welcomes them. Further evil
dence of his intention to keep in close
touch with all that is going on and
to seek advice regarding the major
problems of the Nation, was the
Presidents announcement to callers
yesterday that he expects to have

BANK CRASHES
Arrest Henry Steinbrenner
in Seattle on Charge of
Mail Fraud.
NATIONAL SEARCH ENDS
Deals Alleged to Have Lost
State Institutions More
Than $3.50, 900.

Efforts to remove Henry G. Stein
brenner, accused of participating in
the wrecking of two Indiana banks
involving losses of $410,000 to In
dianapolis for trial Nov. 90, were
begun today by federal authorities,
following his capture in Seattle,
Wash, Tuesday.
Department of justice agents and
postoffice inspectors have conducted
a national search for Steinbrenner
since he was indicted here several
months ago.
Held for Mail Fraud
Steinbrenner, charged with using
mails in scheme to defraud, said
he believed his troubles were due
to some transaction his secretary
had made in his name, according
to a Seattle dispatch.
He was released under $4,000 bond
and went to Tacoma, Wash, to at
tend a lumberman's convention. He
said he would return to Cleveland,
Ohio, where he is vice president of
the Brown Hoist Company.
Postoffice inspectors had differ
ent story to tell about Steinbren-
ner's transactions.
Five Others Indicted
He was indicted with S. Homer
Federman, secretary Of the Stein
brenner Rubber Company of Nobles-
vile; Walter w. Bray, assistant
cashier, and Newton w. Cowgirl,
cashier of the First National Bank
Of Noblesville; E. B. Ayres, president
and E. T. Ayres, cashier, of the
Huntington County State Bank of
Huntington
The five besides Steinbrenner have
pleaded not guilty and go on trial
Nov. 29 before Judge Robert G.
Baltzell.
Loss More Than $35O,oOO
Postal inspectors charge that
Steinbrenner bought what was left
Of the old Burdick Rubber Com
pany at Noblesville practically by
assuming the liabilities. They charge
that he kept this concern afloat by
kiting checks through the two In
diana banks, ultimately resulting in
their failure and in the defraudfng
of the Guardian National Bank of
Chicago, which held some of the
checks, of $55 ZOO.
The postal inspectors say that
the Noblesville bank lost $4,000
and the Huntington bankk $245, 900
in the transactions.
