CUSIP NO. 233 326         SCHEDULE 13G     Page 7 of 13 Pages

Item 4.  Ownership.

     The DST ESOP may be deemed to beneficially own certain shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock held by the DST ESOP.  UMB serves as trustee of the
DST ESOP.  The DST ESOP participants exercise voting and certain dispositive
powers over the shares of Common Stock held in the DST ESOP that are
allocated to their accounts as they have the right to direct the voting of
such shares and the tendering of such shares in response to a tender offer or
other offer.  To the extent that participants in the DST ESOP do not give
voting instructions to UMB, as trustee of the DST ESOP, such shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock held by the DST ESOP are voted by the trustee in the
same proportions as shares for which the trustee has received instructions.
As of the date of this statement, certain shares of the Issuer's Common Stock
are allocated under the DST ESOP, and beneficial ownership is disclaimed as to
those shares.  All unallocated DST ESOP shares are to be voted by the trustee
in the same proportions as allocated shares.  The shares of the Issuer's
Common Stock held by the DST ESOP that are allocated to participants' accounts
are disposed of in response to a tender offer, exchange offer, or other offer
to purchase at the direction of the participants, but if disposition
instructions in response to such an offer are not given by the participants
in the DST ESOP to UMB, as trustee, then UMB, as trustee of the DST ESOP, will
dispose of such shares and all unallocated shares in the same proportion as
shares for which the trustee has received instructions.

     Therefore, the DST ESOP may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock as follows:

     (a)  Amount Beneficially Owned:  3,187,568.  Beneficial ownership is
       disclaimed as to all shares allocated to the accounts of
       participants under the DST ESOP.

     (b)  Percent of Class:  6.5%

     (c)  Number of shares as to which the DST ESOP has:

          (i)  sole power to vote or to direct the vote:  -0-

          (ii)  shared power to vote or to direct the vote:  -0-

<PAGE>


















CUSIP NO. 233 326         SCHEDULE 13G     Page 8 of 13 Pages

          (iii)  sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:  -0-

          (iv)  shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:
                3,187,568.  Beneficial ownership is disclaimed as to shares
                allocated to the accounts of participants under the DST
                ESOP.

     UMB may be deemed to beneficially own certain shares of the Issuer's
Common Stock including the shares of Common Stock held by the DST
 ESOP and shares of Common Stock held in other capacities.  As trustee,
UMB may be deemed to have shared dispositive power over the shares of
Common Stock held by the DST ESOP, although UMB disclaims
beneficial ownership over such shares that are allocated to the DST ESOP
participant's accounts.  With respect to the shares of Common Stock held
in other capacities, UMB may also be deemed to have either sole or shared
voting power and/or either sole or dispositive power over certain of such
shares.  With respect to shares of the Issuer's Common Stock held by
UMB in custodial and other capacities over which UMB has no voting or
dispositive power (either by itself or with others), UMB disclaims
beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock and has not
included such shares in this Schedule 13G.

     Therefore, UMB may be deemed to beneficially own shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock as follows:

     (a)  Amount Beneficially Owned:  3,188,858.  UMB disclaims beneficial
          ownership of these shares, which are held as trustee under the
          DST ESOP.  This amount does not include 86,759 shares of the
          Issuer's Common Stock held by UMB in custody accounts for
          which UMB has no voting or dispositive power.

     (b)  Percent of Class:  6.5%

     (c)  Number of shares as to which UMB has:

          (i)  sole power to vote or to direct the vote:  -0-

          (ii)  shared power to vote or to direct the vote:  1,290

CUSIP NO. 233 326         SCHEDULE 13G     Page 9 of 13 Pages

          (iii)  sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: -0-

          (iv)  shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:
                3,188,858.  UMB disclaims beneficial ownership in these
                shares, 3,187,568 of which are held as trustee under the
                DST ESOP.

     UMBFC does not own of record any shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock and does not exercise or direct the exercise of any voting or
dispositive power over the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock reported
herein and is precluded by applicable law from directing the exercise of
such power over said shares of the Issuer's Common Stock held by UMB.

Item 5  Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.

        Not Applicable.

Item 6  Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another
        Person.

     Although the DST ESOP participants generally have no direct
rights or powers with respect to dividends paid on or the proceeds from
the sale of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock held by the DST
ESOP, participants have the right to receive vested amounts
representing dividends on the shares allocated to their accounts and to
elect to receive cash from proceeds in their DST ESOP accounts upon
distribution thereof in accordance with the terms of the DST ESOP.

Item 7  Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary which Acquired
        the Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company.

        UMBFC, is presented above.
