although counsel for the bank said 1T
was not agreeable"
In granting the continuance, Justice
Mccoy extended the restraining order
against the officials of the Treasury
to the new date, there being injunc-
lions against them on nine different
counts.
Many Sensations Coming.
There were hints both at the Treas
urT and on behalf of the banks that
there would be sensations in plenty
before this trial is concluded. Which
ever side loses in the preliminary
skirmish Of the legal fight, an appeal
VIII be taken. 1t was suggested that
it might take two years before the
case is finally decided by the Supreme
Court of the United States. in which
court everybody comedies il will land
eventually. The bank officials say
they are determined, If there is a legal
possibility of doing it, to have that
court of last resort definitely and final
ly pass upon the character and scope
of the powers Of the Comptroller of
the Currency
At the Riggs Bank it was said more
than 500 letters and kilograms had
been received from various parts of
the country indicating tho moral sup
port of other financial institutions.

Initial Hearing Postponed Un-

Coy Yesterday.
MAYENGAGE UNTERMYER
United States May Have New York
Man as Its Chief CONSOLIDATING
istration Behind Treasury.

The suit Of the Riggs Bank against the
United States Treasury officials was dis
cussed at the Cabinet meeting yesterday.
Attorney General Gregory. as he. left the
White House. said that no new steps had
been decided upon. There was plain
lintimation, however. that the PRESIDENT
and his administration generally would
stand behind the Treasury Department.
At the request of counsel for the gov
eminent, the District Supreme Court yes
terday morning postponed until May l.
the preliminary hearing In the injunction
proceedings Of the Riggs National Bank
against Secretary McAdoo, Comptroller
of the Currency John Skeiton Williams,
and United States Treasurer Burke.
VIII Carefully Plan Defense.
Lawyers present commended that the ap-
1 plication for a continuance for practi-
cally a month indicated that Treasury
officials realized that the bill filed by
the bank contains too many charges of
serious import to be defended without
careful legal preparation. The request
| for so much time, however, came as a
surprise.
There was a report that samuel Inter

BOARD DODGES DEBATE
ON TEACHER QUESTION
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

Mrs. Logan told the board that on her
wav to the hearing a little schoolgirl
ran up to her and said:
Mrs. Logan. I think it's shame this
rr1e A Is in existence. I just saw my
teacher walking down the street with
handsome gentleman. Now. suppose she
would get married. I wouldn't have her
| for a teacher any more. and she's so
nice"
The teacher referred to was Miss E!iz-
sbeth V. Brown, director of primary in
struction. She was present and laughed
heartily.
The argument has been advanced that
repeal of rule 45 would prevent many
| Normal School graduates from obtaining
positions" said Mrs. Albert N. Wood
1.-The board has nothing to do with the
unemployment situation. The schooi
board is not an eleemosynary institution
Established to find employment for job
Hess graduates The board should CONNIE
itself solely to the question OF the eHi-
lciencv of teachers. 1t has no right to
interfere with the economic conditions
Surrounding the teachers. II it did have.
then II could prescribe that teachers
should attend church on Sunday. thar
they should dress in such manner, ana
that they should eat this or that KIND OF
food. Such interference is ridiculous.
| Il can't understand why you board
members are so Backward. said Mrs.
| clara B. Colby. Not another city
in the world would tolerate this me-
| diaeyal attitude. Instead or as
| couraging marriage you should en-
courage it. Oh, my friends-but no. l
suppose / shouldn't call you this. AT
any rate, I urge you to wake up. Tor
/ times are changing"
| Among others who spoke in favor
Of repeal were Miss Mary Brennan,
prominent educator and club woman.
and Miss Mary O'Toole. secretary Of
| the College Women's Equal Suffrage
League.
| Several resolutions from organiza l.
lions favoring rule As were referred
to by Mr.. Blair.
