Harris of the Su- \preme Court of Buffalo, N, Y, an- -mounced today he would sign an order naming receivers for the F. H. Smith ©Co. and fix their bonds on or before April 14, ‘This announcement, contained in a dispatch from Buffalo, followed closely after his decision Monday, when he up- held the petition of the attorney gen- eral of New York that the Smith com- pany be barred from making further sales of a bond issue on the Fairfax Apartment Hotel in Buffalo. The in- Junciion forbidding the sale of the bonds also named Henry C.

Smith Co. be- cause “the affairs of the two are so in- termingled that such action was neces- ary to protect the purchasers of bonds.” | First Civil Loss. "This decision marks the first time the mith Co. has lost in a civil action, re- ests for appointments of receivers in Washington and Wilmington, Del., hav- Mg been denied. Attorneys for the pany anncunced they would appeal the Buffalo ruiing. One of the important questions in- volved in the Buffalo case was whether anticipated earnings could be used as a tasis of an appraisal for loan purposes without communicating this fact to prospective bond purchasers. The petition for the injunction was brought by the attorney general of New York, who contended that the $1,500,000 bond issue on the apartment was in excess of the true value of the property. Fraud Is Charged. ‘The Attorney General when the case was argued alleged the company’s ad- vertising was fraudulent under the Mar- tin law in that a valuation of $2,250.000 was placed on the property in floating a $1,550,000 bond issue to refund a first mortgage. Percival V. Bowen, Buffalo real estate operator, testified for the State that the property is worth $1,115,250. Representative S. Wallace Dempsey of counsel for the Smith company read into the record the following appraisals of the property: $1,746,000 by Adam H. Cormack, former president of the Buf- falo Real Estate Board: $1,850,000 by William W. Reed of Buffalo, and $2.- 245,000 by Philip M. Jullien, a Wash- ington architect. “The loan was for $1,550,000." said Dempsey. “The appraisals are all above that amount, providing good, sound se- curity.” MOONEY PROPAGANDA MRS. RUTH HANNA McCORMICK. HEARING RESUMED OND.C. MONEYBIL Arguments Made Before Committee for House of De- tention Appropriation. i Hearings on the District appropria- tion bill, which were discontinued last week because of the pressure of other senatorial business, were resumed to- day for the purpose of winding up the taking of testimony on a few re- maining items. A delegation of civic leaders came to the subcommittee today to request that the House of Detention be per- mitted to continue with its present facilities. As passed by the House, the appropriation bill did not carry any funds for payment of rent for the de- tention home, which would necessitate moving the institution into some prop- erty being acquired by the District in the municipal center. Those who appeared to request that the House of Detention be not required to move were: Charles W. Darr, presi- dent of the Chamber of Commerce; E. J. Murphy, president of the Board of Trade, and Mark Lansburgh, president of the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Association. A number of other District officials were on hand this morning to |give further information to the sub- | committee on other features of the bill. iThe subcommittee is headed by Senator Bingham, Republican, of Connecticut.

(Continued From First Page.) He had voted for the Jones “five and ten” law and she had not voted on that measure. Illinois had a referendum on the sub- Ject of permitting manufacture and sale of light wines and beer. It went *‘wet” in this election by something over 408,- 000 votes. The drys insist, however, that they did not get out their full strength in this referendum, and it is doubtful that they did. That was back in 1922 Court Supporters Are Hit. Mrs. McCormick made her big issue in the campaign the World Court. She took a firm stand against American adherence to the court on the ground that the court is merely a “League of Nations Court.” She announced that if elected to the Senate she would vote against court adherence if the issue is presented during her term. President Hoover already has an- nounced that when opportunity pre- sented, he would submit a protocol calling for American adherence with the “Root formula.” The victory of Mrs. McCormick on this issue is a blow for the supporters of the court. Lewis also has announced his oppo- sition to adherence to the World Court. McCormick may lose the advantage she otherwise might have reaped in the coming campaign, if that were an issue. On the other hand, Mrs. McCormick doubtless will seek to learn whether Lewis ever supported the League of Nations when that was brought before the country by President Wilson. Illinois Is G. O. P. Stronghold. Illinois for years has been over- whelmingly Republican in State and national elections. The late George Brénnan, Democratic boss of Chlcago, in 1926, running as a wet against Frank L. Smith, the Republican nominee, who had the indorsement of the Anti-Saloon League, lost in the contest for the Senate. It is true that Smith’s lead was only 47,000 over the vote cast for Brennan. But Magill, an independent dry Republican, polled 156,000 -otes in the same election. Smith was under the handicap of the Senate campaign fund investigation of that year, which revealed the fact that in his primary campaign, while he was president of the State public utilities board, he had accepted $125,000 in con- tributions from Insull and other public utility magnates. Smith was denied a seat in the Senate later because of these revelations. In 1928, too, Illinois had the chance of voting for a wet candidate for Presi- dent, Alfred E. Smith, but Illinois was carried by President Hoover by 456,000. If past performances count, Mrs. Mc- Cormick should win in November, de- spite the wet issue presented by Lewls Lewis Will Be Strong. Lewis’ candidacy, however, is a dif- ferent proposition from that of George Brennan. He probably will have the Democrats of the State more solidly back of him. He is the only Democrat Lewis having decne so this early, Mrs. | on Victorio By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 9.—Early hours of the morning came, and newspaper men gathered around the victorlous Ruth Hanna McCormick, first of her sex ever to run and first ever to be nominated to the United States Senate. The hotel suite was crowded with well-wishers and campaign helpers, with Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, life- long friend of the nominee, in the offing. Mrs. McCormick sat calm and smiling, her slender figure represent- ing vigor and a sort of new dignity in politics. “I know what you want,” said Mark daughter. “You want human chorused the newspaper men. “Well—" the nominee tried to look them all in the eye at once, “I don't want any human interest.

That committee is headed by Senator Deneen. It is quite clear that Senator Deneen may be put in an embarrassing | position if there is a demand made for {an investigation into the expenditures in the Illinois election, in which he was defeated. But the creation of the investigating committee in some form or other seems assured. Mrs. McCormick and Senator Deneen have declared they are ready for any senatorial investigation of their cam- paigns and that all of their expendi- tures have been legitimate. ‘The victory of Mrs. McCormick over Senator Deneen in the senatorial pri- mary marks a tremendous turnover in the popular sentiment.

When she returns home, she said, she will commence a campaign for election as vigorous as that which preceded yesterday’s primary. Frank L. Smith, thrice denied a seat in the United States Senate, and Rich- ard Yates, incumbent, appeared to have won the two places on the Republican ticket for Representative at large. There were 21 other candidates. i POLITIGS SCHOOL 10 HONOR GURTIS Will Entertain Tomorrow at Reception for Vice Presi- dent and Sister. _'The Republican School of Politics, be- ing conducted this week in the Willard Hotel under direction of Mrs. Virginia White Speel, Republican national com- mitteewoman for the District, will en- tertain at a reception tomorrow after- noon in honor of Vice President Curtis and his sister and official hostess, Mrs. Edward Everett Gann.

The woman told hospital au- thorities she had tried to take her life because she feared vengeance at the hands of the fire racketeers. Mrs. Dawson, hospital authorities said. swallowed poison. Two men who were found in her home were taken to the police station for questioning. The woman was to be questioned in detail as soon as her condition would permit. Mrs, Dawson lives next door to Chris- tian Consiglio and his wife, who had been arrested on arson charges, and po- lice believed that she had stumbled upon information in connection with an alleged incendiary fire in the Consiglio home. Detective Sergt. Simon J. Callinan said today that his investigations of th: operation of the arson racket had disclosed a well organized plan of blackmail and intimidation, which might have resulted in at least one mur- der and several assaults within the past year. During the night Callinan received indirect word of an alleged plan to connect a bomb to the self-starter of his automobile in an attempt to put an end to his investigations of the alleged incendiary fires. | | | GIVE HER A RING FOR EASTER OR A 80od_ watch or a modern setting for that 000 in seven years, attempted suicide | | abroad, and also eriticized Vincent Massey, Canadian Minister to Washing- ton.
