REHEARING IS DENIED IN GOV. SMALL CASE (Continued from page 1.) "Neither this decision nor the decree of the Sangamon county court," the governor said, "has determined what, if any, specific sums shall be paid by me, but that sum, if there is a sum, will be determined by subsequent hearings before the master in chancery." Hearing to Be Set. As soon as the supreme court issues a mandate affirming the decision of Judge Frank W. Burton 10 the circuit court, under whose decree an accounting was ordered, the accounting will be had before Master in Chancery Charles G. Briggle, Attorneys on both sides will agree as to the time and place of the hearings.

After Master Briggle reports the amount which Governor Small must return to the state, the governor's attorneys will probably make exceptions to the master's report, but in these exceptions only matters relative to the amount can be taken up. The issues of the interest suits cannot be revived. Today's action is final. After Judge Burton issues his final decree as to the amount which the governor must pay back to the state, an appeal may be had to the supreme court only as to the amount. This narrows the issue down only to dollars and cents--something over a million dollars--so the accounting may get back to the Supreme court by the June term and the final decree issued to compel the governor to make payment.

Say Bank Not a Bank. CONGRESS IS WORRIED ABOUT COAL STRIKE (Continued from page 1.) In the majority opinion, which is sustained by the court in its denial of a re-hearing, it is held that the Grant Park bank was not in fact a bank. and that no deposits Were made in such a bank: Grant Park bank was a mere name used by Governor Small and late Senator E. C. Curtis and C.

V. Curtis to conceal the loans made from the state treasury to the packers; that these private dealings in state funds were concealed by noting the amounts so used as "safe account," thes giving the impression that that capital was in the safe or vault, and that there was nothing in the treasury to show that it was loaned to anyone. The total amount collected from the as discount or interest packers, from the treasury was about $1,100,000, according to the majority opinion, and the total collected from the banks with definite interest contracts, and from State Audtior Russel's bank at Jacksonville, which had a $3,000,000 deposit on an interest contract (which Governor Small explain), was about $450.000. Substantially, the latter amount had been paid over by Small, leav1ng the million dollars collected from the packers for, according to the finding of the majority of the court. which says specifically that "tabulation shows that thru the device called the 'Grant Park the Curtisses, with the cooperation of Small, withdrew from the state treasury and invested in packers' $16,448,500, and that the innotes vestments and amounted to more than $30.000,000 during Small's term." of party to the contract or as a mediator.

The representatives of the federal government were simply unofficial observers. Yet, ever since then the leaders of the mining unions have been saying that the federal government was morally responsible for the agreement and should see that it was enforced. The president and Secretary Hoover have said in reply that if a contract is violated the complainant should have course to the federal courts. Under the circumstances, federal mediation has been made difficult. Congress, oft the other hand, feels the pinch of the coal famine, espefrom the eastern seaboard.

cially Party lines have vanished and the for some sort of action is pressure growing daily. It may be that members of congress will Feel they have satistied their constituents by merely raising a fuss about the In action of the administration. Rut the truth is the whole thing may develop real political issue in the east. ASKS MORE ACTION ON FOOD MERGERS Washington.
