Butts States That Improved Conditions Are Indicated, BELIEVES IN A BANK GUARANTEE foetal Savings and tack of Confidence Takes Money Ont of the Community. Guy M. Butts of Wesley was an Algona visitor last Wednesday and In conversation expressed himself as favoring a depositors' guarantee law Most bankers, he said, oppose this because of the expense connected with It, but Mr.

Butts stated that he carried deposits of many of his customers in corresponding banks and that he felt the responsibility of these deposits and he would feel much better if these deposits in other banks were protected. Reconstruction Finance Corporation, he said, would no doubt benefit all localities. The large corresponding banks refuse to accept farm mortgages as collateral except In emergency cases. The Finance Corporation will accept them on loans for six months with the promise to renew them up to three years at per cent. Tills, Mr.

Butts stated Is too high and the rate of interest should be about three per cent. He stated that the Wesley post office is a postal savings office but that lie refused to qualify to accept these deposits. The government requires as collateral, acceptable bonds but for every $1000 deposited bonds must be deposited with the department for about $1200. These bonds would have to be purchased and where $1000 was left in the bank by the post office, about $1200'would have to be sent out of the community for the bonds and he felt that he would be doing his bank an injustice py accepting these funds. With a guarantee deposit law and better prices for farm products he says the nation would again be restored to confidence and prosperity.

DR. M. J. KENEFICK DIES SUDDENLY (Continued from First Page). good in the world without the.

thought of piling up wealth. It made no difference to him whether people had money or not. He treated every one the same and his good and kind deeds would fill many pages. Many old people in the county can look back to the ime he administered to them for years and received nothing for it and refused to present a bill to the county, even refusing to accept fees when the patients themselves scraped together enough to pay. The doctor was uncompromising in his efforts to keep the medical profession on the high plane that it is and did all in his power to eliminate the quacks and grafters from the profession.

When he first came here he was active in cleaning up the medical profession in the county which at that had somewhat of a bad reputation in the state. Highly Respected. No one loved to joke any more than tie and he always had time to talk with his friends. He was full of Irish wit and could always be depended upon to see the humorous side of life as well as the serious side. There was not more highly respected man in the county than Dr.

Kenefick. His friends were numbered by his acquaintances and he had many. Old timers will tell of the times when he battled the snows and colds of many winters uncomplainingly to administer the sick, knowing that in all probability he would get nothing for hie efforts. This made no difference to him, however, he administered to the pauper just as willingly as he did to the rich. Started Hospital.

In 1907 Dr. Kenefick started the first nospital in this part of the state and kept it going until about two years ago when he sold the building to the Masonic chapter in Algona. A number of young doctors served their in- terneship there, among whom was Dr. Frank Rohner of Iowa City, now one of the best known diagnosticians in the state. A few years ago he took in Dr.

E. O. Hartman of Algona as a partner and this continued until four or five years ago when Dr. Hartman moved to Janesville, Wisconsin. Dr.

R. H. Crawford of Des Molnes came then and was here until a year or so ago when he went to Indianapolis and Dr. John Keneflck came to carry on with the doctor. Honored By Society.

In October of last year the Austin- Flint Medical society met here and In the evening gtwe a banquet in honor of Dr. Kenefick at which there were about eighty-five doctors and other guests present. It will be a long time before any one will take the place of Dr. Kene- flck in the hearts of his townspeople and of his medical associates. His work and kind deeds will linger on until thio generation has passed on and a new generation comes in.

Doctors Present. Among the out of county doctors who attended the funeral were Doctors Charming Smith of Des Molnes, president of the state medical society, Woodward, Long and Crabbe of Mason City; Bowen of Fort Dodge; Robert L. Parker of Des Moines; McLaughlin and OToole of Eagle Grove; Jepson, McLaughlin and Lynch of Sioux City and Dr. and Mrs. Bierring of Des Moines.

The latter was a classmate of Dr. Kenefick. Harvey Ingham, editor of the Des Moines Register and Tribune, was also in attendance at the funeral. Weather Comfortable For Past Week. The weather for the past week has been quite comfortable but the lack of rain has made the lawns quite brcwn.
