Facsimilies of the minutes of this organization were given to guests at the local banquet. In a letter to C, Clinton James of Wi , past president of the United States Building and Loan League, the sponsor for the nation-wide celebra- tion observances, President Hoover sai “I will be obliged if you will express my cordial greetings to the Building Loan Council at their dinner on Janu- ary 3d, and my deep sense of the im portance of the work of the building loan associations in facilitating the ownership of homes.” League President Speaks. R. Holtby Myers, president of the United States League, in a message read at the banquet, said it was proper that respect be paid to the memory of the millions of men who had served as directors and employes of building and loan institutions, through and by which, it is estimated, more than 8,000,000 families have been brought into the enobling influence of home ownership.” Millions of other families, Mr. Myers - added, have been encouraged to follow licies of thrift and systematic saving g adopting the building and loan plan. Philip Lieber, national chairman of the group in charge of the centennial anniversary program, in a wire to the local group, expressed appreciation for the rzcognition of and encouragement t0 the work of ths building and loan bodies given by Federal administra- tions of the past 40 years and ex- tended a wish that the observance of the centennial would succesd in touch- ing a responsive chord among people 50 that our national, patriotic-making business of thrift and home ownership carry on with renewed vigor and im- petus and service throughout the tuture. Recounting the history of the building and loan movement in this country, Mr. James described the remarkable growth from the initial institution, which started with assets of $244, to the present day, when the system handles a business totaling approximately $9,000,- 000,000.

Special Dispatch to The Star. WINCHESTER, Va., January 3.— Frederick County farmers and others owning horses are urged by Dr. | H. C. Given, State veterinarian, to keep all such animals in barns and stables | and not permit them to eat dead pas- | ture grass. He was here to investigate the death of about 45 horses in the last week or two, resulting from forage pois- oning, a form of spinal meningitis. The fact that snow has covered the ground for two weeks and made it im- possible to turn horses into grass fields saved many others from contracting the disease, the State veterinarian said. He said there was no nutriment in the dead grass anyway and horse owners were warned against permitting their animals to eat the ‘grass, which has become moldy. Stories which had caused consider- able alarm here, to the effect that car- casses of dead horses had been fed to hogs and the latter subsequently butch- ered and sold here, were investigated and officially denied. Dr. E. W. Miller, local meat inspector, said there had been few additional horse deaths in the county since so many had died within a short time. Dr. Given sald the disease was not contagious and that no cases had been reported this Winter in Virginia outside of Frederick County.

B—§ 2090 DEEDS FILED INGOUNTY IN 1330 1,616 Mortgages and Trust Instruments Aiso Handled in Prince Georges. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. UPPER MARLBORO, Md, January 3.—A total of 2,090 deeds were recorded in the court house here during 1930, according to figures compiled in the office of the clerk of the Circult Court yesterday. Mortgages and deeds of trust num- bering 1,616 were handled during the r, while chattel mortgages and con- ts totaled 3,361. Releases recorded during the year numbered 1,386. The fact that the number of re- leases was almost as great as the num- ber of mortgages is taken as indicating a a;nenny strong financial condition, with most of the residents of the county able to meet their obligations. The business before the Circuit Court continued heavy, 375 equity cases being filed. By working overtime, however, the court has kept abreast of the liti- gation, all cases receiving prompt at- tention. Deputy Clerk James Wallace reported dggo marriage licenses were issued in 1930.

Assets Gain Through Depression. “Notwithstanding the general busi- Tess depression and the crash in the stock market last October, entailing heavy withdrawals from many building and loan associations,” he said, “the building_and loan associations of the United States showed a gain in assets of more than $50.000,000.” “The associations have stood the storm and stress of 100 years of busi- ess life with credit to themselves and with profit to their patrons and their secord in the more recent financial panics of 1893, 1907, 1916 and 1929, is especially creditable,” Mr. James de- glared “The building and loan associations and savings and loan associations stand closer to the common people than any other form of financial institution. It goes ot trusts, nor create combinations in re- straint of trade. Its field is local and §ts mission is to the piain people. It gathers the savings of the thrifty and 2s°s them to build up its own com- munity by the creation of that most valuable asset of this Republic, the American home.” i OLD TOLEDO CHURCH DAMAGED BY FLAMES Irreplaceable Catholic Vestments Destroyed in Fire—Worshipers All Rescued. B the Associated Press. TOLEDO, Ohio, January 3—Flames tonight threatened to destroy the St Frances De Sales Cathedral at Cherry and Superior streets, the oldest Catholic Church structure in Toledo. Flames first started in the basement next 1o the boiler room about 5:30 p.m., then swept up the rear wall and raged across the roof by 6:30. Every piece of downtown fire apparatus rushed to the scene. Hundreds of spectators were endan- gered when an explosion tore away part of the slate roof. One man was cut by falling glass as he rushed into the church to help priests in a vain effort to save the sacrament.
