THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FIVE STATES BEGIN | [Adolph:S. Ochs Wed 50 Years | |, . FUND BILL UP NOTED PUBLISHER OBSERVING ANNIVERSARY IN FLORIDA. BANKING REFORMS Pennsylvania, Ohio, Arkan- sas, Delaware and Kentucky Act in Emergencies. DETROIT, February 28 (#).—The | Detroit News today said that compli- cations have arisen in the plan for the establishment of two new banks in Detroit by Henry and Edsel Ford which will at least delay the project and may entail a change on the previously announced program. ° By the Assoclated Press. Banks in Pennsylvania and Ohio opened for business today fortified by emergency legislation passed since the close of business yesterday. By a resolution passed and signed at midnight, Pennsylvania banks received power to regulate withdrawals, with the approval of the State banking secretary. The restrictions, it was provided, will mot apply to deposits made after a bank invokes the emergency powers. Gov. Gifford Pinchot declared the resolu- tion “makes it unnecessary to declare & moratorium.” “The people of Pennsylvania may safely draw from their banks the money they need for current expenses,” he said. “Cashing checks for this pur- pose is not what endangers the banks. It is the demand for large sums for hoarding which makes the trouble. “This action is taken to safeguard the mass of Pennsylvania depositors from suffering from the needless desire of hysterical depositors to withdraw their funds. It should also preclude the immediate calling of money loans and the hasty foreclosure of many mortgages Which otherwise would be unavoidable.” Ohio Limits Deposits. Ohio passed two laws giving the x;ermcendem. of banks unprecedented wers to control withdrawals and slash red tape in liquidation or reopen- ing of closed banks. The laws provide E;;tecclon for new depositors. Several ks in the State joined the list re- stricting withdrawals, bnnginz the number taking such action in Ohio to over 150. Those banks which had imposed the Yestriction in advance were given for- mal approval for their action. All of the State’s largest cities except Toledo were among the threescore centers where depositors were placed | on a restricted basis. In none was any ‘unusual excitement noted. Toledo banks were reorganized last Summer. The cities affected included Cleve- land, Columbus, Cincinnati, Youngs- town and Canton as well as Dayton. In some other States, too, moves werel made to strengthen the banking situa- tion. In Little Rock and North Little Rock, Ark., banks restricted withdrawals to 5 per cent or $15, depending on which is the larger. Authority was given other banks to follow suit. The Delaware Legislature passed a bill empowering the banking commis- sioner to suspend or postpone payment of acecunts by banks if he deems it necessary. Ford Banks Szeeded. Five banks in Covington, Ky., across the river from Cincinnati, decided to limit withdrawals to 5 per cent a month. In Michigan the bookkeeping task involved in getting the two new Ford- backed banks in operation was going ahead, with clerks working in shifts around the clock in an effort to segre- gate the 1700,000 accounts that are to be transferred to the new banks. It had been hoped the banks would be opened tomorrow, but the bookkeeping task may necessitate a delay. The new banks will start business with assets 100 per cent liquid. As the slower assets of the old banks are liquidated, they, too, will be transferred to the new banks. Transfer of millions of dollars from Federal Reserve vaults and the importa- tion from Washington and Chicago of $78,000,000 lent by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation will precede the opening of the new banks. SURGEON GENERAL HURT Maj. Gen. Robert U. Patterson, sur- geon general of the Army, is being treated at Walter Reed Hospital for a sprained back, suffered yesterday while playing golf. Lieut. Col. O. H. Quade, executive officer of the hospital, said the general's condition, while painful, is not serious. Army Recruiting Suspended. All Army recruiting in the 3d Corps IArea will be suspended temporarily until further notice, it was announced today. Only discharged soldiers whose re-en- listment within three months is au- thorized by Army regulations will be accepted at present. SPECIAL NOTICE:!

RITCHIE PROLONGS HOLIDAY OF BANKS Public Funds to Be Exempt From Restrictions Placed on Deposits. By the Associated Press. | BALTIMORE, February 28.— Gov. | Albert C. Ritchie said today the banking holiday in Maryland would be cxtended but he declined to say when he thought it could be terminated. | ‘The original plan was to end it today. | ‘The Governor's statement was made | after the bill designed to protect bank deposits was completed and was being made ready for presentation to the General Assembly at Annapolis. One of the major provisions is to ex- empt all public funds from any limi- tation on withdrawals, a clause that Mayor Howard W. Jackson of Baltimore had sought to prevent a default on city bonds which come due tomorrow. Under provisions of the measure, the State bagk commissioner Will be given broad powers over administration of State banks, irrespective of their liquid- ity, and will be able to fix the per- | centage of withdrawals. Any bank may exempt itself from provisions of the bill if it obtains sanction from the State. MAY LIMIT WITHDRAWALS. New Deposits Not to Be Affected by New Bank Regulations. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ANNAPOLIS, Md., February 28.— ‘The bank commissioner of Maryland will be virtually a dictator to banking institutions in the State under the pro- posed administration measure planned to care for the present banking crisis, it was learned when Maj. E. Brooke Lee of the State Roads Commission ex- plained the tenor of the proposed bill last night in an informal conference with leaders in both branches of the General Assembly. All new deposits, including naval offi- cers’ allotments, made after the pas- sage of the emergency act, will be sub- ject to withdrawal without restriction Gov. Albert C. Ritchie wired Ernest Lee Jahncke, Assistant Secretary of the Navy. Ritchie’s Telegram. ‘The telegram forwarded at the re- 2 large number of officers’ allotments follows: “The emergency banking Ilegislation which is now being prepared for intro- duction in the Maryland Legislature provides that all new deposits made after the passage of the act (and this, of course, includes naval officers’ al- lotments) will either be segregated for given priority over all existing deposits and in either event be subject to with- drawal without restriction, and this bank resumes unrestricted payment of all deposits and with the approval of the bank commissioner is discharged |. from all the provisions of the emer- gency legislation. “The above information is furnished you at the request of the banks at Annapolis.” ‘The administration plans to vest in the commissioner authority to limit withdrawals from any bank in the State. He is to work in conjunction with officials of the banks affected. ‘The rate of withdrawals throughout the State are estimated at being from 5 to 100 per cent, at the discretion of the commissioner. ‘The percentage of withdrawal will be at the same rate in each city or county, it is believed, but this is at the dis- cretion of the commissioner. Sliding Scale Expected. It is not now known how long this emergency act is to be in effect, but it is expected that the rate of withdrawals will be fixed on a sliding scale, whereby the commissioner can increase the rate of withdrawals from time to time. ‘The general plan is to provide for the full protection of the weaker banks of the State, the stronger banks hav- ing to abide by the rule that will affect the weaker banks alone undet ordinary All deposits will be frozen. Under the new law not even pay rolls can bs withdrawn above the fixed percentage, but a provision will be made in the measure whereby concerns with good credit and with their pay roll known to the bank will be able to borrow suf- ncltlem money to meet their current pay roll. It is generally believed that the bill the General Assembly today. Explains Salient Points. The conference last night was held by Maj. Lee with members of the House of Delegates and the Senate to ex- plain the salient features of the meas- ure in order that there would be no dlssem\lon when it came up for passage. A caucus of House Senate last night lhoted tlme op- posttion tion and emergency measure. It was learned that a number of Republican bankers had assisted the administration in drafting the bill Expecting legislation which would free Maryland banks from the holiday restriction, crowds thronged the gal- leries of the House and Senate last night to watch for the expected ap- pearance of the banking measure, but all they heard was discussion of local measures.

Faltering footsteps on the front porch, a scratching sound as the key searched for the lock and then a click which told Nina Parrish, listening in- tently at the door of her bed room, that her husband, though inebriated, had finally located the keyhole, Her eyes were wide with fear as the front door banged closed and Stanton Parrish staggered down the corridor to the dining room —and a decanter of whisky! Creeping to the top of the stairs, she peered over the banister. house was in dark- ness! She re-en- tered her room. Three minutes "g:omd Then the echo of a shot rang ugh the house! In a state of hysteria, Nina reached for the phone and called headquarters. Mrs, Parrish flooded the corridor with light, which shone on through the partly opened door onto_the porch, as Inspector Kelley and Prof. Fordney stopped the squad car in front of the house. They entered just as she was desgending the stairs. “My _ husband in the dining she gasped. room, I believe . “Why didn’t you investigate after hearing the shot?” demanded Kelley an ‘hour later. “I . . . too frightened!” “leuc you ere ‘ire 16 was your hus- “¥Yes.

Committee Approves More Paving and New Bridge. e (Continued FProm First Page.) 8go. The jtem in the pending n mld have been the District’s third annual refund installment. Maximum Cab Rates Fixed. The Senate committee struck from the bill the House rider which seeks to mnm the Utilitles Commission from meters on taxicabs, but pro- vided it if the meter system is es- tablished the rates shall be not more than 25 cents for the first 2 miles and not more than 10 cents for each addi- tional mile or fraction thereof. This is the same initial rate contemplated by the commission, but is different for the longer distances. The commission rate of 5 cents for each one- hird of a mile beyond the 2-mile limit, which would have been at the rate of 15 cents per additional mile. Senator Bingham said the committee wrote in maximum rates because it wanted to make sure that rates would not be as high as they once were under the meter system some years ago. Other important changes made by the Senate group included the following: Restored authority for the operation of the two new incinerators for the de- struction of city refuse, recently com- pleted, and which would have been idle after July 1 under the House bill. This put $185,000 back in the bill and saved the District from having to return to the ?ublic dump method of refuse dis- posal, Restored the necessary appropriation and authority for the operation of the industries used to keep prisoners oc- cupled at the Occoquan Work House and Lorton Reformatory. The products are used by the Federal and District gov- ernments. ‘These prison activities are more than self-sustaining, but the Com- missioners attached greater importance to the possible harm that might result from leaving the inmates idle. Relief Item Approved. Struck out the House rider which would have discriminated against sev- eral thousand District employes in the system of filling vacancies under the classification act. The House provision meant that if a $1,620 job became va- cant and a perso! ready in the service in a lower grade was reallocated to the higher grade he could not be paid the higher salary. If the place were filled by a new appointment, however, the higher salary could be paid. ‘The Senate Committee approved the $625,000 item allowed by the House for continuing emergency relief work for needy families after July 1, but re- wrote the explanatory language to cor- | respond to the existing appropriation act. This was suggested by the Com- missioners, who pointed out that the House provision did not define how much could be spent for administrative | expense and did not outline the methods | by which relief could be provided. The Senate amendment for building a new P Street Bridge across Rock Creek was put in because Senators were anxious to see the connecting link be- twen Rock Creek and Potomac Parks completed. It was brought out at the hemnga that one section of the road- way to connect the parks could not be carried through until the P Street Bridge is reconstructed. When the | committee found the plans for the bridge were ready and that there would be money kept over in the gas fund next year, it decided to include the bridge as an expenditure from that | fund. The bridge is to cost $250.000. ‘The committee also restored the limit | of cost for the Bridge to the budget figure of $1,250, 000, instead of the House limit of $750. 000. The Commissioners stressed the need for immediate replacement of this | bridge and expressed doubt that a con- | tract could be let if the House limit stood. The amount to be spent next year in starting the structure is $500,000. Mosquito Fund Restored. ‘The House provision to prevent the | Highway D:pnnmem, from continuing | to maintain a testing laboratory was eliminated. ‘The Senate Committee approved $28,- 800 to continue the war on mosquitoes in the District, which was inaugurated in 1931. It is expected, however, that Senator Glass of Virginia, who regards the item as unnecessary, will x')-gpme it. The amount is $12,000 less than the current appropriation. A request of civic groups in North- east Washington for enough money to rade and condition a playground site %emz acquired in that section was granted. Under the heading of public schools, the Senate Committee allowed $15,000 more than the House for equipping the Phelps Vocational. School. Funds also were added for the pur- chase of land at the Phelps School for elementary school Eurposes and land adjacent fo the Syphax School. These two land items were added to the col- ored school program to maintain the ratio between white and colored proj- ]e::.xs based on the colored school popu- jon. The Senate Committee put the limit of cost for the proposed Woodrow Wil- son Senior High School back to the budget figure of $1,300,000, the House new Calvert Strefl‘ having cut it to $1,000,000. The amount to be spent the first year was left at $500,000. It is to be built in the Reno section at Forty-first and Chesapeake streets. House Tuition Plan Rejected. Regarding non-resident school puplils, the Senate knocked out the House pro- vision which said that no children from outside the District could be admitted without tuition, except those enrolled on the ‘day this bill becomes law. The Senate m& then inserted last year's language, which provides that the chil- dren of men in the Army, Navy and Marine Corps and the children of other employes of the United States, sta- tioned outside the District, could be ad- mitted without tuition. For the Police and Fire Departments the committee restored Budget Bureau items for uniforms and equipment, and for repair of fire apparatus, which had been cut out by the House. In the Health Department the com- mittee also put back sums cut from the budget Szures in the House and also allowed $2,000 for the social hy- giene service. Under the Board of Public Welfare, the Senators allowed items which the House had cut from the operating funds of several institutions, including the Tuberculosis Hospital, the Chil- dren’s Tuberculosis Sanatorium, the District Training School, the Industrial Home School and the Industrial Home School for Colored. Additional funds were placed in the bill for continuing the building pro- gram at the Lorton Reformatory. ‘Water Items Put Back. ‘The House reduced the budget figures for various activities of the Water De- partment, despite the fact that such ac- tion would leave an unexpended balance in the water fund at the end of next year, which could not be used for any other purpose. The Senate Committee, therefore, restored these Water Depart- ment items. There will be ample money collected from water users to meet these appropriations, it was sald, even atter allowing for the saving to con- sumers’ through a House provision granting a 10 per cent discount on all water bills paid within 15 days from rendition. The various allowances for the Dis- trict Militia eliminated from the budget estimates by the House were restored by the Senate Committee. The committee also allowed funds the House cut from the estimate of the Public Buildings and Public Parks Of- fice for the Anacostia Park development. The question of whether taxicabs in ‘Washington should continue to operate on the flat-rate zone system or be me- tered was vigorously debated at the Senate hearings. The Utllities Com- mission some time ago issued a meter order, which was sustained in court, but which has been kept from going into effect by a restriction in the cur- rent appropriation act. The House re- newed the ban in this bill, and the Senate knocked it out to permit meters, subject to the rate limitation referred to. New Work Listed. In addition to the new bridge over Rock Creek at P street, the Senate Committee added more than 30 new street paving jobs and increased some of the lump-sum work of the Highway Department, the net result of which raises the gasoline tax program from $1. 350 to $2,849,350.
