Mr. Young, in Detroit, said he was convinced that the painting sold by his firm to Mr. Fisher was not the original listed in catalogues of the complete works of George Romney. He said his London agent obtained the painting from the mother-in-law of the duchess, and'that 1t was sold to Mr. Fisher as the original. He then learned on January 6 from the agent that the The Government was saved approxi- mately $6,500,000 yesterday by a deci- sion of the District Court of Appeals in sustaining the refusal of the District Supreme Court to grant a writ of man- damus compelling Secretary of the ‘Treasury Mellon and Robert J. Grant, director of the mint, from buying 14,589,730.13 ounces - of silver bullion at $1 an ounce from the American Silver Producers’ Association, the Della S. Consolidated Mines Co. and the Spar Consolidated Mines Co. of Colorado. ‘The association and its co-plaintiffs in seeking the writ had invoked the|" Pittman act of April 23, 1918, which directed the Secretary of the Treasury to melt or break up not in excess of 350,000,000 silver dollars, authorized the sale of this bullion at the rate of §i per vunce, and provided for the pur- chase by the Secretary, through the director of the mint, of an ounce of new domestic silver for every ounce of old silver coin. Complaint was made to the court by the three plaintiffs that the terms of the Pittman cat have not been complied with and that the Gov- ernment has yet to buy 14,589,730.13 ounces of silver. Secretary’ Mellon in answer to the suit was opposed to paying $1 an ounce for silver when the market price as of September 30 was 5512 cents an ounce. To compel the Treasury to buy silver now at $1 an ounce, United States At- torney Leo A. Rover argued in the case, would be equivalent to making the producers a gift of $6,493,529.91, repre- senting the difference in the market Regular $45 Clear-Finished Worsted SUITS 97 Remember that we are not offering merely a ‘SPECIAL’—but a VALUE that represents $45 worth of style, quality and value.

Justice Van Orsdel of the appellate court upheld the refusal of Justice Stafford to issue the writ of mandamus on the ground that the American Silver Producers’ Association did not allege in its petition that it had any silver to sell, and therefore would not benefit. There is nothing in the Pittman act, the decjsion held, to compel the Gov- ernment to buy silver from the two mine companies. “ROMNEY” PORTRAIT SOLDIN U. S.
