RECEIVER ASKED | FOR STOCK GROUP Three Declare They Are Un- ahle to Learn Condition of Company’s Affairs. .Frank H. Edmonds, 915 l"ifleenthi street; Edward G. Siebert, 1801 I street, and O. B. Hopkins, 1450 N street, yes- | terday filed suit in the District Supreme | Court against the Commercial American | Underwriters, Inc.; the Riggs National Bank, the Commercial National Bank | and the Lincoln National Bank for the | appointment of a receiver of the fll’st-; named corporation, in the formation of | which Roy L. Neuhauser was engaged at the time of his death, October 8. The plaintiffs say they subscribed to the issue of the stock and made initial payments,” but have been unable t’i learn the condition of the company's affairs. Neuhauser, the court is advised, was the only active person in the affairs of the corporation, and since his death the company has been at a standstill and none of the other officers has any exact information as to the affairs or | plans of the corporation. The Riggs National Bank, as executor of the estate | of Neuhauser, is in possession of the books of the company, it is stated, but refuses to surrender them to any one but an officer of the company and the plaintiffs have been unable to get any officer to take action. Funds col- lected from initial payments on stock subscriptions amount to $5,000, it is stated, which is on deposit in the Com- mercial and Lincoln Banks. Through Attorneys H. Ralph Burton and T. T. Marye, the court is advised that Neuhauser about May 1 under- took to form the company to invest in the stock of corporations engaged in writing insurance and a charter was obtained in Virginia authorizing a cap- ital of 500,000 shares of A stock of $10 par value of 500,000 shares of B stock of no par value, to be sold at $12.50 per share. Edmonds subscribed, he says, to 500 shares, Siebert to 120 shares and Hopkins to 100 shares, on which first payments had been made and the plaintiffs say subscriptions to the extent of $20,000 had been obtained. The plaintiffs declare they have no definite information as to the stock- holders, but the officers of the com- pany.are said to have been: Edward S. Brashears, president; Roy L. Neu- hauser and Eugene A. Smith, vice pres- idents, and Anton Stephan, secretary and treasurer. The court is asked to name a receiver who will take over the books from the Riggs Bank and collect the funds from the other two banks and hold them subject to the court’s orders. ARLINGTON COUNTY .

DINNER SPECTACLE PLANNED BY BOARD Trade Groups to Provide Montmartre Setting at Annual Event. ‘The annual midwinter dinner of the Washington Board of Trade will be held Saturday, February 1, at the New Wil- lard Hotel, it was announced yesterday following a meeting of the committee in charge under the general chairmanship of Jerome F. Bernard. Because of the success of the “Cruise- Around-the-World,” at the last dinner, at which Capt. George Fried, hero of Atlantic rescues, was guest of honor, the committee has decided to carry out the theme idea for the next dinner. A synop- sis has been written and approved, and the event will be called “Inside the Red Mill,” the scene to be.iaid in Montmartre, Parls. Arrangements have already been made with professional scene painters and stage designers to turn the large ball room of the Willard Hotel iInto the appropriate setting, to erect the nec- tive scheme and design. Mr. Barnard and Fred East, chairman of the enter- tainment committee, are planning a trip to New York within the next few || days to confer with several theatrical producers for the purpose of selecting and engaging the acts necessary to fit in with the general idea of the event.

HOYT SUES FOR DIVORGE {Second Marriage to Son of Late Solicitor General Leads to Court. By the Associated Press. RENO, Nev., December 7.—The sec- ond marriage’ of Eugenia Bankhead, granddaughter of former Scnator J. H. Bankhead of Alabama_and daughter of Representative W. B. Bankhead of Ala- | bama, and Morton McMichael Hoyt has gone on the rocks again. Mrs. Hoyt has filed suit for her sec- ond divorce in the Reno courts. Hoyts were divorced here about three years ago and some time later Hoyt gained notoriety when he jumped from an Atlantic liner and was rescued. On December 27, 1928, they were remarried and came to Reno to make their home. Mrs. Hoyt, in her latest complaint, charges her husband with being cold and indifferent, with calling her vile names and being otherwise abusive. He told her, she charges, that he had made a mistake and should have re- mained ' single and accused her of extravagance. He was jealous of her friends and objected to her entertaining company. Bankhead, actress. Mrs. Hoyt attended Holy Cross Acad- emy. She made her debut in Washing- ton and was one of the popular social buds of the year. Mr. Hoyt is the son of Mrs. Hoyt and the late Henry M. Hoyt, United States solicitor general in the Taft ad- ministration.. He is the brother of Mrs. Edward D. Curtis, formerly Miss Nancy Hoyt, an authoress of note. Mrs. Curtis was, before her second marriage, Mrz Gerald A. Wynne of England. Young Mr. Hoyt's, elder sister, whose pen name was Blinor Wylie, dled about a year ago. Roman Toy Found.

After agitating for eight years, resi- dents of the Woodridge community suc- ceeded in having established a sub- branch library, and Friday evening Dis- | trict officials and others joined in for- | mally opening the institution at Twenty second and Rhode Island avenue. Now, within 48 hours of the opening, the | library faces a shortage of books. “In three or four days there will not | be a book on the shelves,” Dr. George F. Bowerman, librarian of the Wash- ington Public Library, said yesterday. Dr. Bowerman, who took part in the exercises, Friday night, said that the number of requests for books on the first day had taken 350 of the 2,000 volumes available and that it appeared that instead of being a boon the library would prove to be an aggravation. ‘There were registered Saturday 156 am satisfied the demand will be greater than we can . _While there are 340,000 volumes on tHe shelves of the Public Library we are hard pressed to supplement the new branch "-.nd can 111 afford to give up our books.’ “Current appropriations, which will be available July 1 next, will enable the Public Library to give about u.qoo a year to the Woodridge sub-branch,” Dr. Bowerman sald. “For an educated, book-hungry popuation, such as the ‘Woodridge community, 2,000 volumes is entirely inadequate,” Dr. Bowerman commented. “We should be able to furnish the branch with at least 20,000 and have $5,000 a year to carry on the work.” The librarian said he had no idea that enthusiasm for books was so marked in the Woodbridge section, which has a population of about 25,000. He expressed regret that the public library would not be able to meet the demands of the section. 0dd Notice Hangs in Cafe.

CAPITALIST’S WIFE LOSES LIFE IN PLUNGE OFF DOCK Mrs. William Pitt Trimble Held " in Car. Two Sons Escape After Accident. By the Associated Press. SEATTLE, Wash,, December 7.— Trapped in a closed car which plunged off a dock into Elliott Bay, Mrs. Wil- liam Pitt Trimble, wife of the Seat:ls capitalist, was drowned late today. The harbor patrol tried frantically to bring the machine to the surface. Her son, Jim Trimble, managed tn get out of a window of the machine when it came to a halt at a depth of 30 feet and escaped after a vain effort to rescue the woman. Another son, Ford Trimble, who was standing by the car adjusting the motor, was carried into the water when it suddenly plunged through a guard rail, but also escaped drowning. His brother, who was at the wheel of the machine, had stepped on the starter while the car was apparently in gear, sending it leaping toward the water, ‘The woman's still form could be seen propped in the back seat as rescuers grappled with the machine. In accordance with his wish, former Police Constable T. W. V. Creamer or Folkstone, England, who formerly serveu on a submarine, ‘'was recently buried at sea. Rayon Pillow pillows!
