COMMITTEE HALTS
CAMPAIGN PROBE
Senate Inquiry Into Fund Ex.
penditures Delayed Until
After Election.

There seemed little possibility today
of further hearings by the Senate Cam
paign Funds Committee before election
day, when 1t became known the mem
bership was unable to give more atten-
ton to the work.
Chairman Nye had intended to re-
turn to Nebraska before the elections
to inquire further into the circum-
stances leading up to the attempt of
George w. Norris, the grocer, to file
against Senator Norris for the Republic
can senatorial nomination.
However, Senator Dale, Republican,
Vermont, who conducted the first Ne
braska inquiry with Senator Nye, made
it clear today he would be unable to
return to the State before election.
Senator Nye has indicated to his Office
here that he may go alone into Nebras-
ka and Colorado after the Tennessee
hearings to arrange the work for the
committees attention later
New troubles confronted the commit
tee today. 1t was learned at headquar-
tiers that one of the field investigators
had been suspended for improper con-
duct 1t was said, however, that the
complaint against the investigator had
nothing to do with the charges made
in Illinois that committee agents had
engaged in overlapping.

BANK PLEA ATTACKS
ANTI-MERGER SUIT
Petition to Dismiss Points Out
That Federal-American Would
Assume Liabilities.

(From the $50 Edition of Yesterdays Starr
The Merchants Bank 81 Trust Co.
today asked the District Supreme Court
to dismiss the suit recently fled against
the company, Peter A. Drury, chairman
of its board, and others to prevent the
merger with the Federal Ma
tional Bank until the court has de-
termined suit of Joseph w. Nc
Reynolds, local automobile dealer, to
vacate note of $4,000 which the.
company is seeking to collect.
McReynolds charged that in trans
fer Of property last January he took
over two promissory notes totaling
S125, 900 which Drury is said to have
assured him were made by a responsible
persons, when he claims Drury knew
that the maker of the notes had suf-
fered financial losses and probably
would not be able to pay. On the Sc
curity Of these notes they advanced him
$50, 1000, he told the court, which they
now seek to collect.
Through Attorneys Ellis 81 Fergs:-
son the trust company points out That
the merger should not be halted De-
cause one of its provisions is that the
Federal-American National Bank as
sumes all the liabilities of the Mer-
chants Bank & Trust Co. and Mercy
nolds could enforce any, right he might
have against the assuming bank. The
court may not enjoin the negotiation
of the notes in question because they
are already overdue and the plaintiff
has made no tender of repayment Of
the $4,000, which he admits he re-
ceived from the trust company, the
lawyers contend.
McReynolds was represented by ATT
torney George A. Berry and bearing was
held before Justice Joseph w. Cox, who
is expected to take the matter under
consideration.
