An impcrtant decision in the welter | of litigation arising from the collapse of the Swartzell. Rhcem & Hensey Co was rendered yesterday when Justice Daniel W. O'Donoghue in District Su- preme Court dismissed a suit seeking reinstatement of original trusts which ! had been released by the mortgege firm | This is one of a large number of milar suits brought by noteholders under original first trusts on butldings financed through the brokerage con- cern. Refuses to Reinstate Fund. The court held that Swartzell, Rheem | & Hensey Co. acted as re) atatives of the ncteholders under tr relezsed by the compan: pay- ment to the noteh and not as agent for the pers corporations lending money under the new trusts The court, thercfore, refused to ro instate a released encumbrance of $375.000 on the Ponce de Leon Apa ments, Connecticut avenue and App! ton street The suit was brought b a number of the original notcholde seeking to have that encumbrar precedence aver & trust of $ held by the New York Life In Co., and & second trust of $44 by Mrs. Margaret Stitt May Sue Later at Law, The court pointed out that Stern, the builder of the had made the first loan teed the payment of the a common Jaw lability as the equity it m: tained merely to enfore common law money liability, the suit also must be dismissed as to him. The dismissal as to Stern, the c id, is not to prejudice the noteholders from suing at law to recover from Stern, or from preventing Stern making defense, both Jegal and equitable, to any such pro- | ceeding. The effect of the decision is to hold the noteholders under the released deeds of trust to bear the brunt of the loss over and above whatever they may be able to get out of the barkrupt affairs of the brokerage company. The plaintifis in the dismissed suit noted an appeal from the decision to the Court of Appeais. 10 HOMES ENTERED; ROBBER GETS $50 Hungry Burglar Takes Slice of Pie From One in Chevy Chase Area. without notes. if at not a all, and be main- Bs & Staff Correspondent of The Star. | BETHESDA, Md, March 17.—Ten, houses in the exclustve Chevy Chase, Bethesda and Battery Park sections of suburban Montgomery County were entered early today by a burglar who got less than $50 in cash. a slice of fe and a few miscellaneous articles or his trouble, according to reports made to police here. The officers. who investigated believe all the homes were entered by the | same person, who, they believe, worked in his stocking feet. The nature of footprints in the snow outside several windows makes this seem likely. The thief entered through an un- locked window or door in every in- stance, according to the police report. Those whose homes were entered included: E. J. House, 406 Fairfax road, nothing missing; J. A. Wharton. 4506 Ridge street, pocketbook containing sbout §11 taken, W. B. Eitzel 4525 Walsh street, nothing missing; Mrs. R ‘W. Beall, 4539 Montgomery avenue, wheré a lady’s pocketbook. glasses, fountain pen and a small amount of change were reported missing P. J.

PATRICK Merg‘er of Free State ments Urged by President—Whole Nation Celebrates. DUBLIN, March 17.—The wearing of the green had a double significance in n today: It was the 1.500th anniver- sary of St. Patrick's landing and it brought a new plan for unton of the North and South of Ireland Eamonn de Valera, new President of the Free State, announced last night on the eve of the St. Patrick's day celebrations, A four-point program for his administration, one point of which was an eventual merger of the Free State and Ulster governments, age-old division of Irish affairs. Other points were abolition of the oath of allegiance to King George and of the more than $10.000,000 a year in iand annuities paid to the British gov- crnment, as well as suspension of the military courts set up by the Cosgrave regime to try Irishmen for offenses against the government. Giant Statue to Rise. The center of the day's ceremonies in | honor of St. Patrick today was at Saul in County Down. where a giant statue of the saint is to be erected imme- diately on the Mountain of Slieve Wil- lin, 400 feet above the shore where he landed in 432 A. D. to begin his mis- sionary work There is also to be a great altar on the site, which commands a magnifi- cent view of the Irish Sea and the Mourne Mountains. The statue will be visible tor many miles, looking toward memories of Slieve Donard on the south, Strangford Lough and even far- away Slethish, in County Antrim, on the North. The ancient custom. of “drowning the Shamrock” was restricted today o homes only. The public houses were closed again this year, as they have been on St. Patrick's day for many years. “I hope unnatural and South to see the boundaries between North Ireland broken down,” President De Valera said, explaining his new gov- ernmental program. He hoped. he said, to see the office of governor general of Ireland merged in time into the office of President of the Irish Republic, Necessary, He Says. He pointed out that even on grounds of economy such & Move Was Necessary in his opinion. “Ireland has to support two prime ministers.” he said, “and 1wo ministers of every kind, apart from the great inconvenience because of the cus- toms. We must have a united Ireland One of the first acts of the new Dail Eirann, he said, would be to abolish the oath of allegiance to the British King. The oath, he said, is not obligatory ac- cording to the terms of the treaty of 10 years ago with England, following whica the Free State was formed “It is our intention.” he added to make ancther payment (of the annuities) to Great Britain, and until any negotiations can take place the onus is on the British goverr to present its case for the annuities.” Pope Plus XI bestowed the apostolic blessing on the Irish people in a mes- ge to President De Valera, signed by papal_secretary of state, Cardinal Pacelli. The messa s in reply to one from De Valera expressing the hope that cordial relation tween Ireland and the Vatican might continue.
