Hammill Starts On Second Term
Des Moines Iowa January 23 John Hammill of Britt was sworn in for a second term as governor of Iowa. Chief Justice William D Evans administered the oath as Clem Kimball also took the oath as lieutenant governor. The inaugural crowd filled the house chamber as Hammill delivered the message focusing on banking and highway policy. He opposed the Guaranty of Deposits Act and signaled possible bond issues with legislative support. He proposed abolishing the valuation department of the railroad commission and combining the office of counsel with the department of justice prompting a rebuttal from railroad commissioner Dwight Lewis. The capitol ball that night would end the ceremonies before lawmakers begin a new session.

Stockholders Resist 100 Percent Assessment at Thornton Bank
In Mason City Iowa 25 Partners Savings Bank stockholders contest a 100 percent assessment order by the receiver. They claim notes and checks paid under a state order were held in trust to cover the capital and would not be bank assets until full 15 000 capital was fully assessed. The stockholders say the receiver wrongfully seized these instruments and treated them as bank assets without authorization.
