Nebraska Banking Law
 Was Bryan Principle

LINCOLN, Neb., April 16.-When Gov Arthur J. Weaver, of Nebras- ka, recently signed a bill repeating the states bank guaranty law, it marked the virtual passing a fav- orite principle of William Jen- nings Bryan.
 It was one of the chief issues of the last two Bryan campaigns Out of it grew more than dozen state bank guaranty laws, modelled on the same plan, in as many states. Only one is left, that of the state of Mississippi.
 Even as late as three years ago agitation in Iowa for a similar law was strong enough to be one of the most bitterly contested issues be- fore the legislature
 The Nebraska guaranty fund was conceded to be 'in the red" be- tween $16,000,0O0 and $20,000,000.
 It was the only unlimited guar anty scheme to exist for any con- siderable time in the United States Most of the other state that passed guaranty laws adopted some kind of limit to the bankers obligations.

KARL THEILE NEW HEAD OF
 CITY LEAGUE
Baseball Fans and Players Select Officials for
 Coming Season

arl-Theile was elected President of the City Baseball League last night, when a group of fans and players met in the Council Cham bers at the City Hall.
 To work with MT. Theile in the handling of the Leagues activities this coming season, George Kohl hepp, vice-p i'd t, and Jack Davis, secretary, were also chosen as officials.
 With J. L. Gray presiding at the meeting some discussion was held on problems confronting the League in 193O Minutes of last years meet ings were read to familiarize the attendants with necessary routine business.
 Leading bones of contention for players and fans to thrash out in the immediate future seem to be whether there will be three or four teams, and whether the season will end about as usual or in July.
 It is xpected this year the League President will select his own umpires and other officials for the games.
 All players attending the meeting last night, signed up for action this year desipnatinp their desired DO- sitions. All those who wish to play baliTthiS season and who were not at the meeting last night are asked immediately to get in touch with

Snapper Garrison started some thing when he expressed the opln- ion Man O'War was not the great est of them all" and named at least one horse, Tammany, which he be- lieved was greater over route than Samuel D. Riddles super-star of the turf.
 The veteran jockeys contention was that modern race horses such as Man O'War had the benefit or better and faster tracks to make their comparative performances seem an improvement over any thing in the past. The same sit- uation, he argued, is true in most branches of sport, where the mod ern performer or athlete has the aid of better equipment, faster tracks, etc.
 This is true, so far as it goes, but the fact that stands out to most turfmen in the record of Man o. War is the margin by which the famous colt won nearly all of his starts. With one of two notable exceptions, as the face with John P. Grier, in the Dwyer Stakes at Aqueduct in 1920, Man OWar was not extended to win by anywhert from six to 100 lengths. In 1920 the Riddle colt as three-year-ole won Il straight races, and brok'

NEW YORK, April 16.-These super clubs the American league has been turning out in recent years are all very fine; they are sure shot worlds series winners and they unquestionably have established the junior loops superiority for the time being.
 But for bang up pennant races the National league seems to have the edge and all indications point to further progress in that direction this season.
 The As and Yanks are out there rci-od to repeat their titanic two team struggles Of 1927, 1928 and 1929. All of the specialists pre- soa1cn dope emphasizes that situ- at.on
 Turn to the National circuit, which has never been so thoroughly squelched as it was in the three last worlds series when it won a total of one game out of l3 played, and you will find perfect setup for flag race classic.
 Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Cin- cinnati, all second division teams in 1929, show vast added strength, far out of proportion to Chicago. Pittsburgh, New York and St. Lcuis, the first division finishers last year.
 Brooklyn is a popular choice to challenge the 1930 favorites and the Reds and Phillies appear plen- ty strong enough to fight to fin ish for place among the select four. Even the Braves might qualify for the championship strug- gle. Their grape fruit belt show ing makes them some kind of light-hued dark horse.
 This certainly is not official Na- tional league propaganda. John Arnold Heydler, senior loop proxy shadow boxed several minutes be- fore he would dignify the obvious with his comment
 "Yes, those weaker clubs of 1929, have packed them into the rosters for this season." said MT. Meydler with unmistakable eau ton. T look for a least six-club scrap for the flag"
 He may be less conservative if such struggle produces a hot challenger against American league dominancy in the big series.

 LEAGUE SPOTLIGHT

five American records at distances of mile to mile and five-eighths.
 Man O'War could have won most of his races without jockey on his back" a prominent turfman once said to me. He was always full of running. No jockey could rate him along. The big red horse simply went out in front and stayed there and all locked had to do was stick to his back
 The thirty ninth running of the rich Preakness at the Pimlico track, Maryland, May recalls that this race furnished the first of Man OWar's triumphs as three-year- old. There was a dramatic touch to this for the famous super-horse decisively beat Upset, the colt that gave Man O'War the latter's only setback as two-year- -old at Sara toga in 1919
 Upset was second, length and a half behind Man O'War and Wildair was third in the 1920 Preakness, which was worth S23,- 900 to the winner. The money prize jumped to $43,oO0 in 1921 and has not been under $50000 since then. Harry Payne Whitney's Vic torian, 1928, earned S60,0o0 as the Preakness winner. This is the richest race in the series which was begun in 1873, when the prize was about 1000.
 The Cubs and the Athletics went to the marks yesterday, favorites to repeat their 1929 pennant victories but not on the basis of their spring training performances. The two championship clubs have been treated with little or no considera- tion along the exhibition routes. This may encourage the ambitious opposition but it is still pretty well known that the boys do not pay 1, off on the results of games in the Grapefruit League or the Orange Grove Circuit. The As and the C's still have 1t.
 Yale contributed Louis Stoddard and Watson Webb to previous polo Big Fours, Winston Guest to the latest American quartet, and now sends two more youthful stars, J. C.' Rathbourne and Stewart Iglehart, into the international arena. The newcomers are still undergraduates but they have fine polo background and chances to develop this year IS members of the cup squad for the first time.

Washington, Aug. 19 (UP)-Or- ders to prevent profiteering have been issued by Secretary of Agricul- ture Hyde to county agents in the nearly 500 drought-stricken com munities which have been authorized to receive emergency freight rate relief.
 Additional counties will be added to the emergency list, Hyde reveal ed in discussing the project to move, live stock out of affected areas and move feed into them.
 County agents are authorized to certify feed shipments for the 50 per cent freight rate reduction. Agents will be responsible for seeing that the farmer obtains benefit of the reduced rates, Hyde said.
