Got Drunk to Get Hls Money

Columbus.--A postal savings bank

get drunk in order to withdraw his de-
posit of $40. HE made his deposit
several weeks ago when he was decid-
edly intoxicated" said Supt. Geren,
"and his identification signature was
rather peculiar When he applied to
withdraw the signature he gave was
nothing like the first one. He was
told that he would have to furnish
some other evidence Of his identity.
In short time he came back pretty
well jagged, asked to try his signature
again, and that time it was exactly
like the original He had deliberately
got drunk to make his signature ac-
ceptable."
