I found myself called upon to make the best settlement possible under the circumstances and I agreed to pay the sum of $1,250 and the costs in the case. This has been accepted and if this settlement meets with your approv- al kindly have a warant drawn in favor of Kane and Cooney, attor- neys for Dora Peck, the mother of this child who has been legally ap- pointed her guardian, and also a war- rant in the sum of $14.15 in favor of R. P. Marshall, Clerk of the Dis- trict Court. The warrant should not be deliv- ered until the guardian has been duly appointed and order of Court is submitted. Respectfully submitted, M. H.

For information of Municipal Offic- ials in Iowa: MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT AND ADMINISTRATION IN IOWA There are more than nine hundred incorporated muncipalities within the State of Iowa. For these cities and town the Iowa law provides sevens different forms of government. There are also variations based on population and location. The State Historical Society of Iowa has undertaken the compilation and publication of a comprehensive study of these several forms of mu- nicipal government in Iowa. Under the direction of the Society, thirteen persons have co- operated in the pre- paration of twenty -four chapters which are to be published in two volumes of approximately 600 pages each. Volume I deals with the legal stat- us, forms, and functions of municipal government, and with the powers and duties of municipal officials. The second volume is devoted exclusive- ly to administrative problems. To obtain first hand information on the problems of Iowa municipal- ities and the procedure followed in actual administration, the writers have made many personal visits to cities and towns of the State. They have studied the operation of mu- nicipal governments, consulted mu- nicipal officials, and attended meet- ings where municipal affairs have been discussed. The writers of these volumes have made a careful study of the laws, de- cisions of courts, and official reports relating to cities and towns in Iowa. Since this work has been carried on in the hope that its results would be helpful to municipal officials, the State Historical Society of Iowa is offering the two volumes to munici- palities and municipal officials at the nominal price of $3.00 for the set of two volumes. To other purchas- ers the price is $6.00 for the set. The volumes may be ordered by municipalities or by individual mu- nicipal officials, at the special price quoted, by filling out the order blank and mailing it to the State Historical Society of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, )n or before December 1, 1929.
