WOMAN'S COURAGE FOILS BANDITS Grapples With Armed Robbers Who Attempt to Hold Up Her Bank. UNARMED, WINS LONG FIGHT One Bandit Killed and Other Wounded When Man Come to Rescue—Story Told at National Meeting of Bankers. . When the wave of crime against banks, which baa reached unprec - edented proportions, was under discussion at the recent meeting of the American Bankers Association at Chicago. and defense measures were up for consideration, the bankers were told how one resolute woman defended herself against two armed despera does in her little Western bank. The woman was Mrs Mary Garlingbouse. cashier of the State Bank of Vera. Oklahoma, which she conducts single- ■ handed. Her own story, as she told It In a report to the protective authorities of the Association, follows "While I was posting my ledger with my back to the door. I heard a commotion. When 1 turned around .there were two men back of the coon ter/ with handkerchiefs over.lheir faces. The larger made a jump for mr gun. before I realised -what was happening. The robbers each had a ■gun pointed at me. and one said TAy . ’down or I will shoot you!’ I said. 1 ■will not lay down and yon will not shoot me.’ This conversation was repeated several times. I told them to cut out their foolishness. '; “A man who was In the corridor when the bandits came laid down on the floor, face down I tried to argue with the robbers and they began to . ;get rough, but something within .me seemed to realize that they were get- ' ting confused I kept thinking that j some one would come In or see us , “The larger man got busy with the! money, while the smaller one took , care of me. He jerked me to my i knees and bit me over the head. This • jolted my glasses and 1 lifted my hand ■ waring It In front of big face and telling him to wait a minute. I took •my glasses off and put them on the ; table. Lifting my hand causod this iman to look up and he saw we were observed from across the street- Then . he saw Constable Mosby. ★ith his I gun* and said to the man who was | gathering the money. ’Don. we are; seen, we must make our getaway*’! He then grabbed me rather roughly rand said: ’Come on here! You are icoming along!’ Struggles With Robber "Here fa where our struggle betrnn AH the time we fought over his gun. •J did not try to tafce it away from him. but kept moving It from one side tn the other, and of course he was determined to point It straight at me. I told him. ’I will not go and I am not afraid of you You will not shoot me!’ | "We fought to the back door of tbs .bank. When we got there, he raised his arm to Are at Mosby. I grabbed him around the neck, and he fired before I could get his hsmd. lam posh .live that this man was never hugged so tightly, nor ever will be. as } hugged him. realizing that 1 must fight for my life.

STRAIGHT TALKS WITH AUNT EMMY ON SAVING AND INVESTING Aunt Emmy and Maud were talking about saving money “What does a savings bank do with the money people put in it. Aunt Emmy f" inquired Maud. “It is invested in sound mortgages, perhaps, or government and corporation securities. You see. the men who tun savings tanks are trained financiers. They know what securities are good and what are questionable, so they Invest the tank’s funds —that is. the money they receive from their depositors—in the beat securities tn such away that they will be able to pay you interest on your deposits and be able to return your money to you when you want it. In order to do that they must invest In securities that pay a higher rate of interest than they give you to cover the bank expenses and set aside a surplus against emergen cies." “But, Aunty. If the tanks invest our money, why can t we Invest It our selves ?“ “We could if we knew as much about investments as the tank does. Bankers are not likely to make the mistakes made by the ordinary person. They are not deceived by impressive looking stock certificates, plausible letters from brokers or charming voices over the telephone urging them to buy this or that. Your tanker is a hard-headed business man who inypstigatfcs thoroughly before he invests the tank’s money. For this reason many conservative persons prefer to keep their savings in a savings bank, knowing that their money Is in wise hands and that even though the rate of interest they get may be moderate their money Is far safer than It would be if it were invested less skillfully." "Surely, though, it must be possible to get more than 4 per cent on your money and yet be safe,” Maud said. “It is under certain conditions." Aunt Emmy agreed. “The trouble ie that so few people are frank about their money matters with men who really can be trusted for advice. They would rather take the advice of a glib stock salesman. No matter how small a sum a person Is thinking of investing, advice should be sought, from a trust company or bank. Women especially don’t seem to realize this. “The savings bank Is always safe. It is a good plan to keep putting money in the sayings bank until you have a good sum. Then withdraw part and invest it in some security paying a higher rate of interest. But be sure to seek good advice before you buy. In this way you can always have some cash on hand in the bank, yet gradually convert most of your savings into high grade securities.” — ANNS B. Aymks. THE BURDEN OF GOVERNMENT The finairtlßl burden of government has become increasingly heavy in recent years. It has. at times, reached the point of oppression. The Federal tax of 1920 aggregated more than five and one-half billion dollars. This year, after strenuous efforts to reduce the war-time peak, the total still exceeds three billion dollars —a sum far greater than tbe entire harden of funded debt accumulated qs a result of the Civil War. State and local taxes have increased at an even greater rate. Taxation has become more than a problem; it is • threat, of impending disaster. Nor is the burden of government limited to taxation. We are oppressed by a multiplicity of restrictive laws and administrative regulations. It is estimated that there are over two million laws and ordinances in the records of nation, states and municipalities. One adult person out ot every twenty engaged In business or industry is a government official, agent or employee. In the face of this record, despite the general recognition of the overwhelming burden of government, we find ourselves constantly waging a defensive battle against plans and programs which would transfer still greater duties to government, which would hamper individual initiative still further, which will —if put into practice—crush individual ambition and destroy individual opportunity. Under these circumstances it is our right—it is our duty—to affirm and defend sound principles of political faith as we have, on othef occasions, supported sound principles of ecoaomic progress. The Constitution of the United States has stood tor 135 years as the bulwark, of our individual and our collective liberties. The Constitution has been and Is now the greatest existing restraint upon an arrogant majority. It has been and is now the greatest existing defence of the very minorities which, at this time, are being led to denounce its reatrtetiona t One of our greatest needs Is to repel the attacks now being made spqp the Integrity of this charter of onr freedom. We should—we must—oppose vigorously all efforts to give Con grass the power to override decisions of the Supreme Court—and thereby destroy the division of governmental power which is the inherent strength bf onr constitutional system.—Walter W.

It superseded the state of North Carolina which dropped several places in the list, and gave wayin turn to Minnesota whose export trade for the three months took an amazing jump. Automobiles, lard, hams and shoulders, and bacon, c ntinued to be the principal export commodities for the quarter under review. Automobiles and parts were shipped to the extent of $2,810,327; lard followed with $1,772,868, and then came hams and shoulders with valuations of $1,660,813. Bactn was exported to the amount of $1,086,179. and ores, metals and manufactures of. except machinery and vehicles totaled $1,034,255. Grand totals for the first jiine months of the year give Indiana experts of $41,859,510, and nineteenth place in the entire list of states. Although Indiana lagged behind North Carolina to the amount of approximately $1,500,000, it clearly topped Missouri, its nearest competitor by over $8,000,000. EMBARGOS I NJUSTIFIED Chicago, 111., Jan. 2.—That Illinois poultrymen consider the New York City and state embargo. placed on all poultry shipments from Illinois and other Midwesit States, as a rank injustice, is shown by letters and telegrams of protest from all sections. Directors of the Illinois Pcultpr and Egg Shippers’ Association believe Illinois was placed on the embargo list very largely because of promiscuous shipments out of Chicago, made up of rejects from the West and 'Northwest. The epidemic is a light form of roup and normally breaks out in undernourished fowls that have been weakened by long shipments in adverse weather conditions. o SWALLOW LIGHT Bl LB Trenton, N.

When the light was missed young Scherer remembered he nad swallowed it several hours before, and he was rushed to the Princeton hospital, where it was removed. o OH!

FEES TOTAL $150,000 — Chicago, Hl.—The lawyers who saved Richard Loeb and Nathan Leopold, Jr,, from the gallows when they pleaded, guilty to kidnaping and killing Ro>bert Franks, will receive $150,000 for their services; it became known last week. Clarence Darrow, veteran criminal lawyer, and Benjamin and Walter Bachrach, brothers, share in the fee, though the proportion of the division has not been made public. The lawyers, it is stated, asked for $200,000 at the conclusion of the trial, and though the Leopold family made no objection, the Loeb family thought the amount excessive. After some discussion the $150,000 was agreed upon. o “Princesq Nellie.” a circus midwt whose home is in Syracuse, N. Y„ has a ten months’ old baby daughter more than half as tail as the mother. F.
