H Expect Bank to Pay. | The removal of the three officials of | the bank also resulted in withdrawal | of $1,000,000 by depositors, although a | statement was issued saying the insti- | tution was in good condition. Directors said closing of the bank was the best | way to protect depositors, and investi- | gators sald every obligation probably ‘would be met. The Provident Savings Bank & Trust Co. also experienced a heavy run yes- | terday, but kept open over time to satisfy depositors. _State Director of | Commerce Edward D. Shorr announced no other banks were involved by Shafer, and Cincinnati Clearing House As- socia promised support of all the rest of the county's banks. The Brotherhood Bank was estab- lished in 1923 by the Brotherhood of Railway and Steamship Clerks, and 51 per cent of the stock was owned b members of the union.

TYPICAL WINTER STORM HITS ICELAND ' Visitors Gathered to Celebrate 1,000th Parliament Anniversary Confronted by Snow and Sleet. naval ¥y In- By the Assaciated Press | THINGVELLIR, Iceland, June 27— Torrents of rain. sleet and snow fell| " over Iceland during the night, and iey cold prevailing y reminded between | 30.¢ and 40,000 foreign visitors here | for the 1,000th anniversary of the founding of the Icelandic Parliament that little island might live up to| its name. | After & memorably beautiful day for the celebration here yesterday the weather broke suddenly. Thousands of the visitors were caught in the churned- up rosds vainly attempting to gain cover from the unpleasant conditions, shelters were soon overcrowded and as there were too few motor cars the situ- ation soon took the aspect of panic lnd{ ght. Never in the history of Iceland were 80 many cablegrams handed in for tr: fon as yesterday and night. The telegraph service became congested, and one journalist had to hire an airplane to take his messages to Reykjavik. The Bank that Makes You | bills passed as substitutes for measures exactly parallel to the present has de- %7 | veloped T the last | at all, The agreement in advance that the President’s veto would be sustained in the House with the understanding that he would accept a substitute bill cor- roborates the predictions made by this writer that Mr. Hoover would win out, but it also will exert an influence bn the relations hereafter between the President_and Congress. Most Presidents have notified con- gressional committees of their views on pending legislation while the measures were in the committee stage, and this has enabled the Senate and House to shape legislation in accordance with the desires of the Executive or so defi- nitely in opposition to his views that a veto has not occasioned surprise. Avoids Taking Part. But in view of the criticism of Execu- tive usurpation of legislative power in recent years, Mr. Hoover has leaned backward to avoid participation in the legislative _process. Most leaders of Congress, however, are inclined to the view now that Executive co-operation is essential and that the case of veterans’ bill proves it. Mr, Hoover did succeed finally in preventing a bill from becoming law which would have upset the budget cal- culations, but he was able to do 1t only after allowing the legislative ma- chinery to go through the final roll alls. Mr. Hoover alone has assumed re- sponsibility for killing the vterans' bill that was passed by both houses. Most members of the House who sup- ported the President did so on the theory that their votes on the veterans’ bill in defense of the veto would not be used against them because a sub- stitute measure acceptable - to the President would become law before the end of the present session. Occurrence Is Rare. It is rare that a President's veto is sustained as a consequence of an agree- ment to substitute new legislation. In fact it cannot be recalled just when like 1t has occurred in the There have been new vetoed by the President, but no case loped “in which understanding that & new bill would be approved. was reached in formal conference with the leaders prior to the veto. The solution of the present tangle is regarded as g fortunate one from a po- litical standpoint, as it enables members of Congress to go out before their eon- stituencies with a record of having some veterans' legislation, and, at the same time, the Treasury's esti- mates of the surplus will not have been seriously disturbed. <Incidentally. Congress is not cleaning up the odds and ends of its sessions as quickly as it believed would be the case when the tariff bill became law. The 1st of July is at hand, and Con- gress has at least two weeks more work before both houses ean adjourn.
