The bank, he said, would not be 1 in; competition with private banks in making loans to individuals or corporations but its purpose would be to act as a clearing house for the funds of state government divisions. “The magnitude of this bank may be visualized when we consider that through it would flow annually approximately 3250,000,000 a» in- ‘ come to the state subdivisions in license tees, taxes, fines and other ' sources," he said. “It could become a reservoir for ' estates and trust funds pending fin--1 al settlement and should be open--1 to receive deposits of citizens who ' prefer the low rate of interest with ! absolute safety of principal. "The loans to be made by the bank, instead of going to private citizens and corporations, would go to public government units, such as cities, towns, counties, townships 1 state boards and commissions or de- : partments fully protected by law."

Young Arnold was arrested last night in a restaurant at Stockton, 111., a small town 130 miles west of here near the Mississippi river. He was pealing potatoes to earn; a meal. This fact disproved the! robbery motive which authorities' had favored earlier. He was taken to the county jail at Mount Carroll where, it was said, he confessed readily and said he was “glad it is over.” The youth had been suspected I since shortly after his “grandmother's" body w r as found in the cistern Friday. His father, C. B. Arnold, wealthy manufacturer, attended a theater with his wife, Bert’s stepmother, that night. Returning home, they discovered signs of a struggle, called police, and traced a trial of blood from a couch in the living room, through the kitchen and to the cistern.
