By the Associated Press. The Federal Roads Bureau an- | nounced yesterday it was advising the | Georgia Highway Board it might proceed with construction of road projects “to the extent of $1,000 000 or more.” This was understood to be the first bureau sanction of projects in Georgia since the termination of its long dis- pute with the State board over as- serted inadequacy of the Georgia road-building organization. A bureau spokesman said State au- | thorities submitted a complete re- vised program for the entire $5113,- 000 allotted Georgia from public works funds, including all projects on which approval previously had been given and also necessary substi- tutions to replace projects under- taken with State funds during the dispute.

It happened at a civic meeting in College Park the other night. Mr. A, a leading light in the or- ganization, requested the privilege of the floor for his “good friend, Dr. B of Bladensburg.” The privilege was graciously ez- tended and a cordial introduction Jfollowed by the Dr.’s sponsor. Rising for his address, the guest speaker said, “first, however, let me get the record straight. My name is C, not B; I am not a doctor, but a preacher, and I live in Capitol Heights, not Bladens- burg.” * x * x NOTE ON JUSTICE. WHEN customers in a certain chain restaurant here walk out without paying their checks the man- agement takes the sum from the slim wages of the cashier while at the same time warning her not to be too in- sistent about collecting lest the com- pany be sued. “Hey! Hey!” called the cashier in a weak and embarrassed voice the other noon as two big women who had eaten heartily stakled by her cage without so much as a nod. The girl sighed, “There goes $1.50 out of my pay for the second time this week.” Employes are not allowed to follow | defaulting customers to the street be- cause they might make a mistake which would subject the company to damages. * K ok % THE WOMAN QUESTION. Although members of the female sex do not control the Government, figures show that of the 100,000 civil officers and employes in the executive branch of the Govern- ment working in Washington, 40 per cent are women. The Treasury Department has the largest num- ber of women, 9,951 to 7,415 men, while the Veterans’ Administra- tion has the largest ratio of female T ation take-off. Lower photo shows —Copyright, A.

In the field, however, the | men outnumber the women by nearly siz to one, or 598,663 to | 120777, the high ratio being ac- counted for principally by Post Office Department with 235226 men employed and only 22,960 | women, * * ok % PUZZLED. ‘HE other day The Star and Sta- tion WJSV of the Columbia | Broadcasting System had arranged a | little radio program for the school children at the Thomson School in | the interests of safety. | The little tots came to the micro- phone and gave their parents and teachers advice about crossing the street.

The commission began to receive complaints that a prospective ap- pointee was barred by the non-resi- dence proscription and, as is custo- mary, dispatched an examiner to the scene to investigate. The candidate was approached and asked about the difficulty. “Well, I'll tell you,” he said, in effect, “I was born and raised here, lived here all my life.

By the Associated Press. TRENTON, N. J., October 12.—The Interstate Conference on Crime today indorsed universal fingerprinting and recommended creation in each State of a bureau of criminal identification and a unit of criminal intelligence. Numerous resolutions, approved by delegates from 30 States at the closing session of a two-day meeting, also urged the use of sound moving pictures in the identification of criminals and the enactment of reciprocal legislation for subpoenaing out-of-State wit- nesses in criminal trial. The conference indorsed the use of compacts as an effective means of su- pervising persons on probation and pa- role. Judge Hartshorne Elected. Judge Richard Hartshorne of New- ark, chairman of the Commission on Interstate Co-operation, was elected chairman of the Interstate Crime Commission, created yesterday to make effective interstate agreements de- signed to aid in the pursuit, appre- hension and trial of criminals. ‘The Executive Committee of seven, which elected Judge Hartshorne, also chose Clarence V. Beck, Kansas attor- ney general, and S. Pierre Robineau, Florida legislator, as vice chairmen. Other members of the Executive Com- mittee are Attorneys General Joseph Chez, Utah; John J. Bennett, New York, and Otto Kerner, Illinois, and Justin Miller, Assistant Attorney Gen- eral of the United States. Bates Urges Compacts. Sanford Bates, Federal director of prisons, advocated at last night's banquet compacts or reciprocal legisla- tion to improve supervision of parolees. “The formation of interstate com- pacts or reciprocal arrangements for the improved supervision and control of the minor criminals who cannot be sent to prison, but who must be under discipline and whom we call proba- tioners, seems to be an obvious duty of the State governments,” he said. “Likewise these culprits who, having finished their allotted term in prison and who must for our own protection be assisted over the difficult period of readjustment into society, should not be lost sight of merely because it is necessary for them to move from one State to another.” Cites Need of Agreement. Gov. Harold G. Hoffman of New Jersey and Gov. Herbert H. Lehman of New York outlined the need for mu- tual agreement on anti-crime meas- | ures. The new Interstate Crime Commis- sion, created quickly after it was sug- gested by Henry W. Toll of Denver, is to direct interstate crime agreements. | It will be composed of one representa- tive from each State who will choose an Executive Committee of seven. In addition to supervising existing compacts, the commission will sponsor new agreements and continue interest in interstate co-operation.

C, LARGEST PAYMENT Bradford Depositors to Get Approximately $1,000,000 From U. S. Agency. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Payment by the Federal Deposits In- surance Corp. of the largest obliga- tion since it was founded is about to be started, officials report. Approxi- mately $1,000,000 will be distributed to depositors in the Commercial Na- tional Bank, Bradford, Pa., recently closed because of alleged defalcations. The insured accounts totaled $2,- 600,000 out of deposits of $4,200,000. ‘The exact amount the Federal Deposit Insurance will have to put out will be known as soon as examiners sent from ‘Washington complete their investiga- tion. ‘The pay-off will be the twenty-fifth made by the Goverament's insurance corporation. This and one other are now pending. In the other 23 cases, depositors in these banks have re- ceived $4,700,000 or 95.4 per cent of their money. ‘The reason that all the depositors were not paid in full was because a small amount of the money was in deposits that were restricted and some deposits were for more than $5,000, the amount that is fully insured. Prompt Check Service Asked. President Roosevelt has asked the banks to render prompt service in cashing all pay checks in connection with the works program. Copies of his letter to the Federal Reserve Board have just been forwarded by the Fed- eral Reserve Bank of Richmond to all banking institutions in the Fifth district. The letter says: “The Nation-wide works program which the Federal Government has launched in order to give employ- ment to men and women on the relief rolls is now under way. The program will naturally involve the issuance of a large number of pay checks, which SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, checks will be drawn on the Treasurer of the United States by Federal dis- bursing officers in the States. “In order to prevent delays in the payment of wages, and in order that these workers, practically all of whom have been on the relief rolls, may re- ceive the fullest benefit from their em- | ployment, it is essential that our banks throughout the country extend every possible co-operation by cashing these checks at par upon proper iden- tification, which will in most cases be | the identification card given the payee by the employing office. I urge bank- ers to extend to this program the full- est co-operation to the end that these checks will be cashed promptly and in full” Bank Loses Valued Cashier. General regret is expressed in the | banking district over the death of | Samuel R. Baulsir, since 1920 cashier of the Security Savings & Commercial Bank. He had been having serious | trouble with his heart for some time | so that his death was not a surprise to his closest friends. He was 59 years old. Before joining the staff of the Se- curity Savings & Commercial he was | connected with the National Bank of | ‘Washington, so that his activity in the financial district covered a long period of years. Mr. Baulsir was a conserva- tive, capable and up-to-date banker and rendered very valuable service to the institution with which he was con- nected. Francis G. Addison, jr., president of | the bank, and the other officers, paid | him high tributes. Many planned to attend the funeral services at his late | residence this afternoon. Known to 1l the members of the District Bank- | ers’ Association, he will be missed at future meetings. Landis Sticks to Own Work. From his New York statement, it is evident that Chairman James M. Lan- dis of the Securities and Exchange Commission intends for the commis- sion to stick strictly to the job of protecting investors from worthless or semi-worthless securities. He is frank | to say that in case there should be serious inflation, it would be the duty of the Federal Reserve Board to take care of it. The Reserve Board has the proper machinery, he says. In the brokerage houses here yes- terday's sharp advances in many | issues on “inflation” talk and bright business reports, took market follow- ers by surprise. What President Charles R. Gay of the exchange said was given as the cause of the upturn. His note of warning was considered timely. So far, however, little worry is expressed here over inflation possi- bilities in securities, quotations being so far below the 1929 marks. Bond salesmen say stocks are now selling pretty close to their real values. Cus- tomers’ men in the board rooms believe a good many stocks can go quite a lot higher without being inflated. Two interesting opposing views. Check Sums Startle Bankers. On August 27 a member of the Harrisburg, Pa., Clearing House As- sociation brought in checks on other banks amounting to $18,822.68 and received from other banks checks on it totaling exactly the same amount, it has been reported to the American Bankers' Association, with a request for information as to sim- ilar coincidences. “In our 29 years of operation” A. K. Thomas, secretary of the clearing house, wrote to the associa- tion, “this has never happened be- fore. Do you know if it has ever happened anywhere eise? It seems 4 | almost uncanny and I am curious to It was found that the New York Clearing House has a record of one bank which on September 22, 1862, came within 1 cent of a balance. Also, on December 16, 1873, a bank brought in checks totaling $1,605,- 603.42 and received checks totaling $1,605,603.32, making a credit balance of only 10 cents. Again, on May 23, 1902, a member bank submitted checks totaling $661,847.01 and received checks aggregating $661,847.11, leav- ing a debit balance of a dime. PRIVATE BUILDING RISES.
