FROM EXCHANGES
Continued from Page A.


above mentioned sum have been in
process of liquidation for years, in
many cases, and the best of the frozen
assets had been picked over before Mr.
Benson took charge. That the bank
commissioner was able to salvage sc
much out of the mere residue adds
much to the credit due him.
Another factor is the fact that this
splendid achievement was accom-
plished without any harsh or oppres-
sive measures against the debtors
Mr.. Benson approached the task in a
spirit of good will toward all and a
willingness to cooperate in every way
possible with those owing the closed
banks.
Liquidation is now being conducted
throughout the state in this manner,
and the interests of the depOsitors re-
ceiving first consideration. The work
is speeded as quickly as possible and
not dragged out as under the Republi-
can regime to prolong fat jobs for lame
duck henchmen. In some cases the
jobholders hung on to a single bank
for ten years and ate up the deposit
tors substance.

A TWO.SIDED PROPOSITION
Montgomery Messenger)

If you are fond of pot-hunting in
the dictionary, you might occupy some
of your leisure time looking up the
word cooperate. You will find it is
derived from the prefix CO, signifying
with, together, in conjunction or joint
ly, and the Latin root operari, to
work. Co plus operari, to work to-
gether, in conjunction with or jointly
1t might be well for everyone in the
community to memorize that defini-
tion, and to bear in mind at all times
that it takes at least two to make co
operation, just as much as it does to
make a quarrel, a prize fight or a
horse race. If you want cooperation
from the other fellow, you'll have to
give some yourself. If you are dis
satisfied with the way things are go
ing on in the community, you will do
well to go into a huddle with yourself
and figure out whether you are doing
your share of cooperating. Remem-
Der cooperation is two-sided propo-
sition and you'll have to be at one end
in order to bring about results.

Wisconsin Is Trying
Unusual Experiment

Rhinelander, Wis, June 2.-(P)-Al-
most one-third OF Oneida county, sit
uated in the heart Of wisconsin,
north woods region. has been closed
to ordinary human habitation.
No new pioneering farmers will be
permitted to acquire homes in the
wilderness. Some of the existing
clearings are being given back to ma
ture. Thousands Of precisely bound
ed acres are to be safe for the trees
The new order is the result Of the
county coming ordinance, which has
just gone into effect. Oneida coun-
ty has started an experiment thought
to be novel in the nation, and It's
operation is being watched closely
by conservationists.
The ordinance divides all county
lands into two observation-disclosures ia
b edeveloped to recreation and forest
industries, and the other to be devel-
oped without restrictions.
