Prof. Warren D.

The lnteroat of the North Ameri cana In Bout.. America he Justfled by the following reason : First, Mour four-and-a- half billion dollar In vestment In South America, much of which either has been or may be lost;" second, "the difference In cul ture between North and South America." and "third, the lessons In need to learn from the South Americans." Alter explaining te great differ ences In the historical background of the two peoples, Prof. Smith went on to discuss the significance of the Pan-Latin movement, which cuts across this country's own Pan -Americanism. Among the topics dwelt upon was Che interesting experiment in applied sociology carried on by La Prema, the great Buenos Aires newspaper. Professor Smith told the Rotarlana about his visits to Rotary clubs In Valparalson, Santiago, Buenos Aires and Uruguay, and of the things Vie Rotarlans there were doing toward the betterment of their communities. He was in South America at the time of the recent revolution and visited six of the most important countries, Rotnrlan W. P.

AU membera of the lodge a.d aux llary are requested to be In attend ance on time. is problematical, and depends largely upon local economic conditions. The action of the state bank heads in consummating the transfer of the funds and thereby making available for local business and circulation $760,000 In deposits that might have otherwise been idle for an Indefinite period acted as a tonic on conditions. The move also averted a possible run, or application for receivership. Airplane Brings Currenry An airplane with $1,000,000 In cur rency arrived Monday afternoon for distribution In Jackson county banks as a precautionary measure. The shipment came from Portland upon orders from the Federal Reserve bank of Son Francisco. Arrival of the treasure was not known until It had been stored away In bank vaults. Collapse of the Jackson County bank, established In 1888, was the cause of wide regret and was em piratically attributed to a "whisper ing campaign." The deposit with drawals started early this year and reached their peak Friday and Sat urday morning. Public opinion has already started to manifest an aver sion to rumors and fattllng on a wholesale basis. Liy Probe "Whispers" There Is a federal and state law making circulation of false state ments about the condition of a bank a felony with a heavy prison sen tence as a penalty. No Information upon any possible legal action against "whisperers" has been revealed by authorities. It Is predicted It will be called to the attention of both state and federal grand Juries at an early date for a probing. No decision .has been reached upon the disposition of the Jackson Coun ty bank building or Its fixtures and equipment.
