Court decision after reviewing the Bank guaranty plan and the Legal entanglements entailed by the closing of fifteen Banks in 1s21 and 1922. Which temporarily overdraw the depositors guaranty fund or. Crawford reached the Climax of his address by stating that the highest court in the United states the United states supreme court had held in the famous Dartmouth College Case that Legislatures Are powerless to upset contracts not fulfilled. The Contention on which the depositors plan to proceed is that the guaranty Law is a contract As yet unfulfilled As certain funds collected under the Bank guaranty Law for payment to depositors of failed Banks have not been paid out. Other cornices represented people from All walks of life attended the meeting which packed the downstairs of the auditorium. Surrounding counties were also represented by closed Bank depositors. Preliminary to his talk or. Crawford declared that he had not been retained As an attorney to represent the James Valley Bank depositors of Huron Many of whom have joined a group to Lead the fight against the repeal of the Law. His interest in the Case is As a depositor he said. Or. Crawford cited the history of the Bank guaranty Law recalling its passage in 1915. A the idea Wras not new in the United states. Iowa had tried it and in a Case carried to the United states supreme court the Law was held constitutional. Objections were raised with More vigor As the Banks began to fail that Good Banks had to help pay the losses of bad Banks. That is True of All types of insure Chi cd. Quot the Law called for an annual assessment of on fourth of one percent of the aver a deadly deposits. Such deposits for All state Banks amounted to Between $95,000,000 and $175,000,000, for twelve or. Crawford then cited the Case which is he says the stumbling Block to litigation seeking recovery by depositors of Money Quot still held in the fund but diverted now to depositors of the surplus fund exhausted in 1921 and 1922. The speaker declared. Fifteen Banks failed. A the $3,000,000 fund stored up for depositors was paid out in claims. In March 1923. The Stock growers Bank. Of it. Pierre failed. Certificates of Deposit were issued due in 1924. Other Banks failed and certificates of Deposit were issued falling de the same Day. Depositors of the it. Pierre Bank were paid first.

Mailing thirty eleven Are in and in i of Way to blame it finds itself ruled off floor with others papers surprised Point in the of Fallon Case whether the railroads of the United states shall be valued at roughly Twenty three billion dollars or roughly thirty eight billion dollars. The former figure is roughly the valuation put upon the roads by the interstate Commerce commission. The latter is roughly the valuation claimed by the railroads. The decision in the o Fallon Case does not sustain either valuation. Just How far the decision goes will Only be Clear after painstaking study of the full text of the written majority opinion by six justices. All that Justice Mcreynolds a for the majority actually said in court on monday was z Brief Oral summary of the Maiori Ity opinion. That is All the Public could have Access to until after the later printing of the full text of the decision. The essence of what Justice Mcreynolds said was that the action of the interstate Commerce commission about the of Fallon Railroad was annulled. Based on that fact standing alone Hasty interpretations were made which were strongly favourable to these interpretations was undoubtedly justified. Close consideration however of All that Justice Mcreynolds said gave Rise in some qualification of the Hasty interpretations. Yet further Quali Filaton will be made after there has been Opportunity for experts to study the full text of the decision. Question of formula what was in question in the of Fallon Case Wras the method followed by the interstate Commerce commission in fixing a value for the o Fallon Road and for All the roads in the country. That method stated with the i exactness and incompleteness of enforced Brevity was As follows the commission started with the value of the Road As of june 30, 1914, when the Dollar had its full Normal buying capacity of one Hundred cents. To this sum the commission added the amount actually expended on the Road from june 30. 1914, to the present. This formula for valuation. Which is Here stated loosely without qualification of depreciation etc., would give to All the railroads of the country a total valuation of aleut Twenty three billion dollars.

C., May 23�? up a surrounded by utmost secrecy a conference of the Republican membership of the House began today in an Effort to smooth out differences Over the pending Tariff Bill. The purpose of the gathering the second of its kind since the Republican Tariff measure was introduced May 7. Was to agree upon a Rule to expedite passage of the measure by placing restrictions on amendments. Republican leaders were hoping to win United support for a Rule which would permit amendments to be offered Only by Republican members of the ways and Means committee who framed the measure but such an agreement hinged upon the concessions which the Tariff framers have agreed to make to those dissatisfied with certain proposed rates. Many amendments scores of amendments Many of them involving important rates were placed before the Republican House membership by the republicans of the ways and Means committee in an Effort to allay dissatisfaction among members Over the pending Tariff Bill. One amendment would provide a duty of i per cent and Valorme on hides. Another would make leather dutiable at rates ranging from 12 1-2 to 3 per cent. A third would place a duty of 20 per cent on boots and shoes. The Tariff Bill As originally reported left these articles in the free list. Would raise cattle still another amendment would raise the present duty on live cattle to two cents a Pound on animals weighing less than 800 pounds and 2 i-2c on cattle above that weight.

Crawford to take cars of future depositors but Quot no legislature can take away Protection by retroactive Quot yet there is $1,000,000 in the depositors fund not yet paid out under the prior Protection Law.

State Banks required no surety under the old Quot what is to be done is up to you or. Crawford said in closing. He declared he had not been informed the name of the lawyer on whose opinion the repeal will be attacked but that study of the Laws and reports of the banking department had brought him to the belief that the repeal was illegal and unjustified.

The railroads formula would give to the railroads the edit of the Rise in prices of goods brought about by the change in the value of the Dollar during the War and since. The railroads of the country total a valuation of about thirty eight billion dollars. Must consider present costs tile majority opinion of the supreme court in the of Fallon Case As summarized by Justice Mcreynolds went no further than to say that the interstate Commerce commissions formula for valuation was not full satisfactory. The decision most emphatically did not Sav that the Railroad s formula is right any inference from the decision that the country s railroads will ultimately be valued officially at roughly thirty eight billion dollars is far fetched and unlikely to be justified by time and future Catlie decision pointed out that the interstate Commerce commission under the statute underwing it operates is required to give Quot due consideration to Quot present reproduction the decision says Quot present reproduction value is a one of the elements in an official valuation for rate making purposes. The decision markedly did not spa that Quot present reproduction value is the Only element or the principal element.

In order to permit members of the House members of the agricultural committee to attend the Republican caucus on the Tariff the farm Relief conference committee postponed its session until tomorrow. In the meantime top latest move of the farm Relief conference committee to Settle the Export debenture controversy Between the House and Senate appeared today to be on the verge of failure. Garner indicates failure this was indicated when representative Garner of Texas the democratic Leader announced he had decided against moving to re commit the Tariff Bill to the ways and Means committee with instructions to include the debenture plan. Senate conferees had sought this action by Garner in the Hope it would satisfy the Senate a demand that the House vote on the debenture proposition before it be asked to recede from to position favouring it. A number of senators have insisted that the House be permitted to express itself on the debenture plan As a part of farm legislation. The democratic House Leader said he would have no objections to offering the debenture Section of the Tariff Bill As an amendment but since the Republican majority was expected to limit amendments one proposing debentures was considered unlikely to be authorized. Want Maxim uni support democratic leaders in the House Justice Mcreynolds stated specify j have taken the Yiew that Inas Caile that is to Manv railroads it a might readily be that their value for rate making and other off Cal purposes would be less than their reproduction value. The decision seems merely to Sav that on the record of the Case it appears that the interstate Commerce commission disregarded of failed to give due consideration to a present reproduction value on one of several elements. Greatest suit in history tile lightness of the derision As a basis for hone on the part of the railroads is suggested by the nature of the dissenting opinions by Justice Holmes. Brandeis and Stone. Justice branded seemed to say that it was enough if the interstate Commerce commission gave consideration to present reproduction in the same sense in which and Hirv bases its verdict on consideration of any and Aff Paris of the evidence. Both Justice Brandeis and Justice Stone seemed to say that the amount of consideration Given to reproduction Cost As an element. In vain Quot Quot the of Fallon Railroad was sufficient.

Quot i am sure that most senators already know that the information regarding a secret Senate session recently published by the United Presa could have been obtained by us but that no Effort was made to compile it for publication we refrained from such publication because a had reason to believe that the in Formatter available was Likely in the nature Olathe Case to be inaccurate and a we Felt that under no circumstances should we publish a Roll Call which would misrepresent the position of any senator. It now has appeared that this surmise was Correct. Accuracy is aim Quot i invite attention to the fact that accuracy was the compelling consideration. And that the Washington Bureau of the associated press never has and does not now subscribe to any theory that publication of secret proceedings if he alb cation is accurate is in any Wise beyond the legitimate function of a free press. Quot what action the Senate May see fit to take against a press Agency which describes Senate proceedings inaccurately is of course a matter Between the Senate and that particular Agency. The associated press therefore expresses no opinion on the Quot merits of the Case involving recent publication of a purported Senate Roll Call. But it does protest vigorously against sharing Ven by implication the blame Conan incident in which it deliberately declined to have any part.
