WAGGONER INSANE
MAY BE DEFENSE

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Sept. 15--Indi-
ton that an insanity plea may be the
defense of c. D. Waggoner to the
federal charge he is facing in con-
nection with an attempt to obtain
s5OOOOO from six New York banks
was given Sunday in conversation be-
tween the bankers attorneys and rel
atives of Waggoner.
Heavily shackled, Waggoner, who
is president of the Bank of Telluride,
Colo, arrived in Cheyenne Sunday in
the custody Of Earl School, deputy
United States marshal, and was i'm
mediately placed in a cell in the
Laramie county Jail.
On his arrival here Waggoner pre-
scented an appearance very unlike
that of the shrewd manipulation as
he has been pictured. He shaved off
his mustache in New Castle Saturday
and was wearing an old brown sweat
er and a pair Of corduroy trousers
when he stepped off the train, chained
to the deputy marshal,

Those Good Old Days"

Although there were few roads and
little traffic in Colonial days, traffic
laws were rigidly enforced Sunday
travelling was Illegal in some of the
Colonies, the statute defining Sunday
as lasting from shutdown Saturday un.
til sundown on the Sabbath. 1t is re.
lated that a traveller, about to resume
his journey, once left the tavern on
Sunday evening, and standing beside
his horse, waited until the sun, as he
thought, had retired for the night
Then he mounted and rode off. Just
then a last sunbeam pierced the
clouds for an instant, whereupon he
was arrested By the vigilant town
constable and fined.

State

States is about third less than in
1928, the country is witnessing an I'M
usual congestion at terminal markets.
There was a rather large carry-over
of wheat from the past season and at
the same time farmers have moved
their new crop on to the market more
rapidly than ever before, the market
ing specialist pointed out.
Prices have been very materially af-
fected, Mr.. Bell says, pointing out
that the peak of the seasons prices
was reached July II, at which time
September futures sold at S1.52 8 8
and the top price for No. l Dark
Northern spring wheat with IA per
cent protein was S1.73 Is. On Sep
TENDER 7, Dark Northern with ID per
cent protein had dropped SO cents
from the high point and September
futures were selling 15 cents below.
On September Z, wheat of contract
grade, No. l Northern Spring, was
selling from two to four cents under
September futures, seven to nine
cents under December futures and Is
to II cents under May futures, stu
alton which market observers attrib-
ute to congested markets making cash
wheat less desirable than wheat to be
delivered at a later date.
Montanas wheat is setting new
high record for protein content but
premiums for protein are at very
low ebb at the present time, Mr.. Bell
states The 4,546 samples of Mon
tana wheat tested in state labora-
tories up to September 10, averaged
1853 per cent protein.

CLAIM NEW PAPER MONEY
TO BE UNSATISFACTORY

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-"Danger-
Gus money" is the way Louis A. Hill
former director of the United States
bureau of engraving, describes the
new small currency now being circu-
lated by the government.
Hill has asked the senate banking
and currency committee to investi-
gate issuance of the new currency by
the treasury. He contends the small
notes are poorly made, and are easily
counterfeited. Hill recommended that
the small money be withdrawn from
circulation to prevent the country be-
ing flooded with bogus notes, thus
offsetting the saving the government
makes in substituting bills one-third
smaller than the old issue.
While only one case of counter
feiting the new currency has been re-
ported to the treasury secret service
to date, it was learned that hundreds
of people from every section of the
country have written to Secretary
Mellon protesting the change in mon
ey sizes. Writers contend the small
er notes caused confusion and errors
and that the larger bills Were easily
handled.
Hill wrote the committee the new
"flivver" sized bills were the "poor-
est, confessedly the cheapest and
without doubt, the most dangerous is
sue of United States currency in his
tory" He predicted public opinion
would require its withdrawal from
circulation.

Father Not
ShaCkZed BY
Instantly
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

Much ado is made these days over
the suppressed American man. To
hear one of these learned foreigners
on the subject, one would think that
the average husband over here lived
under the complete domination Of
some woman.
A pitiful picture Is drawn of
hordes of overworked men bowed
under their terrible financial burden,
while mothers, daughters and sweet
hearts indulge in orgies of buying
and laugh with glee while they hold
masculine noses to the grindstone.
This report, we assure you, is
exaggerated grossly. Otherwise, why
do we not hear more and louder
walls from this army of down-trod-
den men? 1t seems bit queer that
an entire nation of aggressive and
successful husbands, who have cor
nered a major portion of the worlds
wealth and who exert tremendous
influence in business, politics and
invention, would submit meekly to
the feminine yoke. They don't, my
friends, they don't.
Ease Off Their Burden
Practically everything that the
gentlemen have handed over to us
with such gallantry is the thing
that they want to get out Of doing
themselves.
To boss house and manage a
family requires executive ability. a
powerful fund of energy, and the
ability to keep everlastingly at it.
Father naturally is not averse to
turning over the biggest end of this
task to mother.
The main reason the average
American husband does not regulate
his wife and discipline his children
is not because this privilege has
been snatched from him, 1T be-
cause he is too lazy to be bothered.
Nothing to Brag About
We women need not fiatter our
selves unduly over our great in
dustrial victory. We will have to
step mighty high, wide and hand
some if we ever get the best of the
canny men. We have not done it
yet by great deal. y
The old-fashioned fellow who
created such havoc in the home
circle when he entered his front
door, was saddled with bunch of
incompetent females. AS soon as his
women acquired sense and ed
ucation enough to run things, he
betook himself downtown and went
into conference.
In that self-same place he now
tarrSes, secluded, peaceful, protected
from worries, keeping his golf and
baseball scores, happy in his new
found slavery and laughing up his
sleeve, no doubt, at all the SYM
pathy his sad state solicits.
