RETURNED BANKER
STILL HAY ON TRIP

Chicago FinanCier.

BY the Associated Press.
EAST CHICAGO, Ind, September
27.-Hazel K. Groves, bank president
and county treasurer, has returned to
his home, but his disappearance is as
much of a mystery as 1t was during
the week he was gone.
Groves, who dropped out of sight
September 10, returned early today and
issued statement through his son say
ing he could remember nothing from
last Saturday until yesterday, when he
awoke in a Peoria, ILL.,, hotel. He re-
fused to see reporters, but held a short
conference with business associates, at
which it was said the proposed merger
of Groves and another East Chicago
bank was discussed.
Missed Similar Meeting.
1t was a similar conference on the
merger which Groves failed to attend
September 10, causing great alarm for
his safety. He had been seen en- route
to the meeting, but he did not arrive
and could not be found.
A wiGe search resulted in but one
clue-Groves was reported seen at a
Cedar Lake, Ind, resort the day after
the scheduled bank meeting. Then all
trace of him was lost. Fearing a run
on the bank directors of the American
State Bank Immediately closed the
institution and asked the State Bank
ing Department to examine the books
The bank was found to be in salts
factory condition, despite slight ir-
regularities." Groves books as Lake
County treasurer we're also examined
and found to be in good shape.
Gives Meager Details.
Groves story, as related by his son.
was that he suffered lapse of memory
after party at Cedar Lake, September
20. He remembered nothing from the
time of the party until yesterday morn
ing, when he awoke in hotel room in
Peoria. He did not know how he got
to Peoria, how long he had been there
or whether he had been in any other
towns during his weeks absence.
He had not been robbed, bat still had
money when he awoke yesterday. He
called his brother, Harry Groves of
Springfield. ILL.,, and the latter brought
him to East Chicago.
An automobile bearing the license
plates isued to Groves was reported to-
day to have been seen several times last
week in Canton, Ill, about 40 miles
from Peoria. The last time the license
plates were noted in Canton was We'd
nesday.

LONDON, September 27-One of the

THE OLD MONEY

It is scarcely necessary to call attention to the fact that there is scarcely any of the old bills left in circulation fereabouts. The old bills, once so necessary part of every ones equipment when headed to- ward store, are no more.
 But the West is not like the East; and thus we discover from no less an authority than the U. s. Treas ury Department that s1,S3s, s,ooO,o 900 of the :5,120,ooo,o0 in old-type currency are still in circulation; and that they are confined almost ex- clusively to the West.
 It appears that in the West there is a strong disinclination to let so the old bills; and western banks, which are supposed to turn them in to the Government when they ge hold of them, must be neglecting their duty.
 As matter of fact, it is unlikely that all of the old currency will ever return back to Washington to roost The collectors are busy and a con- siderable part of it will remain in their archives" It might be added, too, that some of the old currency of the Civil War days also is still outstanding g'-in the hands of col lectors.
 Fifty years from now one of the old greenbacks we used to handle will amaze anyone looking at 1t through the glass of museum exhibit.

OUR DIFFICULT TIME WITH THE FARMERS

Persuading American farmers to agree upon a ten per cent reduction in the acreage of wheat, so as to avoid adding materially to the sur plus on hand, is one of the major difficulties of the Federal Farm Board.
 The farmers, expecting to enjoy the benefits of what they are wont to call guaranteed price, with the Government holding the bag, are hard to convince it is & good time to grow less instead of more spring wheat.
 That is one of the evils oi the farm relief legislation as it has been passed. At a time when the gran aries of the world are bulging with surplus wheat production increases as if no surplus existed, and the so- called guaranteed price inevitably aids in adding to the surplus.
 The Farm Board naturally also asks reduced acreage in cotton. dairy products and tobacco. The idea, of course, is sound. The trou- ble is to get the producers to re- duce the acreage. Reports to the board are said to be gratifying, but tl.ere is no way of knowing whether all farmers, instead of only those identified with the organizations, will the persuasion of the board.
