FARMERS lNTERROGATE MRS.
GREENWAY

uOCuIA. 1SdU0Ild OEGSu way +,
candidate for congress. has set
forth her views in detail on the
seven leading farm problems as
propounded to her by President
Samuel S. Wallace of the Ari
zona State Farm Bureau FEEDER.
alton in letter he wrote her at
the direction of this federation.
II was requested" be inform
ed her. to ascertain your views
on the following questions:
| 1. Tariff on copper.
2. Tariff on Pima cotton.
| 3. Extension of loans to pur
chase dairy herds from three to
five years.
f. Cooperative marketing.
5. Imported butter substi
tutes.
6 Imported canned meats.
z. Desirability of appointing <
a local personnel oil farmers to
administer loans to take up farm
mortgages.
To these seven interrogatories,
the su distance of Mrs Green ways
replies were:
l. Tariff on copper.
Make the tariff high enough
to keep out all cheap foreign
copper. All Arizonians should
be in favor of this. The United
States normally consumes 80 per
cent of her own copper. We
must safeguard our home market
for the benefit of our own peo
Pile. We must maintain our own
living conditions that have made
US the standard bearers of civil
ization.
2. Tariff on Pima cotton:
I am heartily in favor Of a
tariff on this cotton. To ask our
farmers to grow this cotton with
J out tariff protection is equivalent
to asking them to lower their
standards Of living to equal that
of the Egyptian laborer who
tolls for a wage Of 20 cants a
day.
3. Loans on dairy cattle.
/ cannot see how farmers can
be expected to begin paying on
principal in less than three
years. Profits on dairy cows
cannot be expected to begin un
til the increase of those cows
come into production.
4. Cooperative marketing.
1t is my opinion that agricul
tural co operative marketing is
a principle that must be sustain
ed not only by the farmers them
selves buy by our state and
federal governments.
5. Butter substitutes.
We should protect our dairy
industry from the importation of
foreign butter substitutes, and
in so doing we at the same time
insure the health of our children
| and families.
8. Imported meat.
We must oppose the competi
tive importation of foreign meats
that would reduce the now ex
listing small margin of profit in
all phases of the livestock 10
dustry.
z. Person 1el Of Farm Loan
Boards.
[ believe that a liberal number
of farmers should be put on those
boards. This is essential to &C
CON plish the underlying purpose

GeoIogist Has New Theory
on Scotch, Swedish
Mountains.

Bg Science Serrice
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Wash-
ings of sand and silt from a vast
northern continent, completely
vanished for more than half
billion years, form large parts of the
mountains of Sweden and Scotland,
as well as parts of preesnt-day
North America, in the opinion of
Professor Albert Gilligan, noted
British geologist, Professor Gilligan's
discussion of the subject appears in
the current annual report OF the
Smithsonian Institution.
Some of the most ancient rocks
of the lands around the northern
end of the earth, Professor Gilligan
notes, originally were sands and
muds, washed down from a higher
land somewhere by great rivers and
deposited on the sea bottom, as the
Mississippi delta is being formed to-
day. Subsequently they hardened
into stone, and later still were lifted
into plateaus and mountains.
The great thickness and extent
of these ancient sedimentary rocks
in the chain of northern lands has
convinced Professor Gilligan that a
land mass of major continental
size, drained by rivers of many times
the silt-carrying power of the
present Mississippi, must have ex-
listed around the North pole in
remotely past time.

State BANK
CLOSED DOORS
Cashier Slabodnik Attempts
Suicide When State OFF,
cials Find Shortage.

At meeting of the directors of the
First State Bank held Wednesday
morning, a decision was made to sus-
pend operations at the bank pending
liquidation of the assets. The last two
years of depression has worked havoc
with the assets of the bank and while
it was thought that the assets were
sufficient, in the shape of mortgages
and securities, to cover liabilities, they
are not in liquid form and are termed
frozen assets.
Immediately following the closing of
the bank, Jacob Riggs and j. F. Angels,
representing the state banking depart
ment, began a thorough check of the
books of the institution and during the
day uncovered shortage announced
as $14,500, in the funds of the bank.
In the meantime, Leonard Slabodnik,
cashier, had disappeared and the
sheriff was ordered to locate him for
questioning.
Deputy Sheriffs jeff Cusson and
Chick Murphy remained through the
late afternoon in the vicinity of the
home of Slabodnik, waiting for him to
return, but it was not until after dark
that their vigil was rewarded. They
followed him into the house to find that
he had gone at once to the basement.
Before they reached him he had shot
himself in the breast He was immedi-
ately rushed to the hospital, where an
officer was left to watch him. The
wound, inflicted, according to hospital
authorities, is not expected to prove
fatal unless complications set in but at
the present time he is in a very serious
condition
Sam Owens, st. Louis County sheriff,
and Frank Rosemier, assistant county
attorney, were in the city yesterday and
issued warrant for the arrest of
Slabodnik to give information concern
ing the affairs of the bank with which
he had been connected since its for
nation in 1912, first as assistant cashier,
and for thirteen years as cashier.
He was promoted when George L.
Brozich, one of the organizers of the
institution, was retired from the
POoROlOll OldDOOlllh Ildo dSSOCl-
ated with Brozich in the insurance
business prior to the opening of the
bank.
The notice of the closing of the bank
was posted on the door by the board of
directors late Wednesday morning The
institution has a capital stock of
$4,000 and a surplus of $4,000 The
deposits were about $250,0O0, according
to the last bank statement published in
September. The bank will remain
closed while the state banking depart
ment continues its probe of the affairs
of the bank estimated to take about
ten days.
Although the doors are closed the
affairs of the bank will be administered
in such manner as to pay depositors
as rapidly as possible and every effort
will be put forth to nquidate assets in
such "a manner as to preclude a loss
for the depositors, according to the
bank officials.

COURT MOVE TO
GUST OFFICIAL
Alderman Tau4ell Wants the
Place Now Held by Secre-
tary ZbIasnik.

Quo warranto proceedings were
entered in District Gourt at Virginia
Saturday to determine the right OF
Anton zbasnik to hoId the position OF
supreme secretary of the South Slavonic
Catholic Union by alderman Ivan
Tauzell and Henry N. Benson as states
attorney general. Judge Edward Free
man signed an order directing Secre-
tary Zbasnik to appear in court at
$3.50 A. M, on January 18th, to show
cause why he should not be ousted
from the position in favor of Tauzell
In bringing THE proceedings, Tauzell
claims that at the convention of the
association in August, 1928, he was
named alternate supreme secretary and
that upon the death of Supreme Sec
rotary Joseph PiShler on Sept. %, 1881,
he was entitled to assume the Office
for the remainder of the term accord
ing to the constitution of the Union
He further states that the Union was
founded in this city and incorporated
under the laws of the State of Mime
sofa and now has branches of the order
in nearly every state of the Union.
Supreme headquarters are located in
this city. Upon the death of Secretary
Pishler, Tauzeu stated that the chair
man of the board of trustees came to
Ely and took over the duties of the
deceased secretary and on Nov. l, 1881,
zbasnik was appointed to the office, he,
Tauzell, was entitled to by rights of the
constitution.
Mr.. Tauzel also charges in his court
proceedings that he repeatedly de-
manded that he be permitted to assume
the position but was told that he had
previously resigned as alternate secre-
tary. He also alleges That when the
last convention of the order was held
last July, he carried his appeal to the
floor of the convention. The stand of
the trustees and Zbasniz was upheld
by the convention and that without
oral or written notice of any charges
against him, he was expelled from the
Union
