BANK CONTROL SUIT
DISMISSED in Court
]. M. Baker Loses Case Out of
Which Grew Charges Against
Justice Wright.
FLAWS PICKED in CONTRACT

The suit of James NJ. Baker against
Wade II. Cooper, out Of which grew the
latter's charges against Justice Wright.
OF the District Supreme Court, recently
filed with President Wilson, yesterday
was dismissed by Justice Stafford, OF the
same court.
The bill was to enforce specific per-
formance of a contract relating to the
ownership and control of certain stock
OF the bank. Justice Stafford held that
the contract sought to be enforced by
Baker is one which a court OF equity
should not look upon with favor sum-
cient to compel performance. The
court criticises the nature Of the agree
ment on account of the words, operate
the bank for their joint interests"
'I feel certain" says Justice Stafford,
that the contract testified to by the
plaintiff, when carefully weighed, is one
which a court of equity cannot approve
and enforce. Nor in my Judgment is it
possible to separate, approve, and enforce
that part OF the agreement by which it
is claimed that Cooper undertook to pur-
chase the Garrick shares for the plaintiff.
/ cannot but think that the approval and
enforcement of such a contract as this
would be contrary to the principles Of
equity. the contract itself, being, in my
opinion. IL not Illegal, at least inequitable,
in respect to minority stockholders and
depositors, and of evil tendency"
Commenting on the decision, Mr..
Cooper, who is president of the United
States Savings Bank. said: 1T settles
in my favor the suit in which Justice
Wright testified. 1t leaves my friends
and myself in control of the bank. After
was elected president Of the bank.
Justice Wright, Mr.. Baker and myself
differed about certain policies, which
resulted in a fight for control Later Mr..
Baker filed a suit, supported by an af-
fidavit from Justice Wright claiming
that there was a certain additional verbal
stipulation in my agreement with Baker.

AINEY RESOLUTION
ON MEXICO FAILS
Members of House Committee Favor
Letting Administration Work
Out Problem.

It was disclosed yesterday at q meet.
ing Of the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs that an overwhelming majority
of that body Is opposed to taking action
on any resolution Of Inquiry that may b
introduced bearing on the Mexican situa-
ton The committee believes that the
administration should be left with . free
hand to work out the Mexican problem
In Its own way.
This sentiment was developed apropos
Of the consideration given a resolution Of.
fered by Representative Ainey, of Penn
sylvania, calling on the President to for.
ward to the House all information rela-
tive to conditions In Mexico. Mr. Ainey
appeared in support of the resolution
Representatives Levy. Of New York.
and Vaughn. of Texas. defended the
administration. They opposed the Ainey
resolution on the ground that a report
on II might lead to debates/that would
embarrass seriously the administration
In its endeavors to adjust the Mexican
troubles in a peaceful way.
Representative Fairchild, Of New York.
who has property interests near the Mex
lean border, declared the American peo-
pie were not advised fully OF develop
ments in and about Mexico. and that II
they were the administration might be
forced to intervene.
The discussion developed that Repre-
sentatives Ainey and Fairchiid are the
only members of the committee who be-
lieve that a resolution such as that in
troduced by Mr.. Ainey should be passed.
As a result of the dissatisfaction eX-
pressed over the failure OF administrs-
tion officials to confer with the commit
tee relative to conditions in Mexico 1t
was decided to ask Secretary Bryan to
appear. Accordingly. a resolution was
adopted inviting Mr.. Bryan to attend
the committee meeting Monday.
