Eight Year Legal Battle
Will Be Continued to De-
eide Loss Responsibility
Judge Signs Judgment
300 Defendants Held Liable
to Depositors; Appeals
Are Predicted

Assistant District Attorney Louis
Goldstein of Kings, acting on behalf
of the depositors or the defunct Union
Bank of Brooklyn, filed yesterday with
the County Clerk a judgment for
$1,0O0,000 against the stockholders of
the institution. The Judgment was
signed by Supreme Court Justice CAL
laghan.
The recording of the judgment margs
another step in legal battle already
of eight years duration--since the
bank closed its doors, April A, 1910
to determine the responsibility for de-
positors' losses. In June of this year.
following trial, Supreme Court JUS
tice Callaghan decided the stockholder RS
were liable personally.
Mr.. Goldstein, who also is special
counsel for the Banking Department,
said after filing the judgment that he
intended to instruct Sheriff Griffin to
collect from the stockholders their pro
rata share of the judgment. There are
about 800 persons to whom the iudg-
ment applies.
1t is doubtful if the efforts of the
Sheriff will result in the collection Of
considerable portion of the judg-
ment. 1t is likely that the majority
Of the stockholders will file an appeal

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O.-In order to
return every soldier of the United
States army to his home city without
any cost to the individual the War De-
partment is now formulating a general
Plan that will avoid annoyance or finan-
clai outlay to the men.
Sleeping cars will be provided. a
kltchen car will be attached to each
tram, and while travelling the men will
pc Ted the customary army rations.
Where possible. men living along the
route Of travel of the special trains
VIII be selected and they will have the
privilege of being dropped at their
home stations. AS each man leaves the
train he will receive his discharge ami
all pay due him. thus enabling the
authorities to muster out great num-
Der of men at their very doors.
Those on special trains who 90 to
the destination, which will be the
camps throughout the country. will be
permltted to participate in the pro
posed victory parades at the large
cltles near the camps and then will be
discharged. and their fare paid to their
nome cities, at the prevailing allow
ances of 81 cents mile.
Inc return to their homes from
American camps will be handled in a
similar way.

something which will be fitting and
appropriate, and, in so far as it is
possible, adequate to the men and
achievement this memorial is to COM
memorate. To this end we shall spare
no pains nor effort"
Mr.. Wanamaker added that the COM
mlttee would welcome suggestions from
the public. What sort of memorial
would they prefer? What location
would they choose for it?
In the discussions on the subject
Madison Square has been frequently
mentioned as the most appropriate
site.
In this connection mention is being
made of a plan for an Altar of the
Nations. drawn Up some time ago by
Thomas Hastings, the architect, which
would encompass practically the whole
of what is now Madison Square Park.
"The difficulty here is that so elabo-
rate project could not be put through
in time," it was said at headquarters.
What we shall probably have to do
is to put up temporary arch in plas-
ter for the parade and then carry out
permanent plans later"
Finance Is Problem
The large cost of the Altar of Ma
tions may also initiate against that
suggestion. AS yet no specific plans
have been made for financing the me-
mortal. That is another point the
committee said, on which it would vel
come suggestions. Should the cost be
met by popular subscription, so that
every, one may have some share in the
building? Should it be through the
donations of few wealthy citizens ?
Or should the city foot the bill In the
first phase of the committees being
all these points remain hazy.
What is certain, though, is that New
York is going to have a Victory Arch
for the boys, and that it is going to be
as worthy one as the skill, talent and
admiration of this city can achieve
meanwhile the open season for sugges-
tions is on
New-York tribune., 1918-11-21

New York artists, especially those
associated with the National Sculpture
Society, were aroused yesterday at the
unheralded appearance of what pur-
ported to be sketch of the proposed
Victory Arch, with which this city is
planning to span the line Of march of
the victorious American troops a few
months hence, when they come back
for the biggest parade in the nations
history
In theory, said these artists, the idea
for Victory Arch is one of the very
best little ideas ever promulgated in
these parts. In fact, it was such a good
idea, they declared, that they them
selves originated it months ago, and
privately agitated in it's favor, and
even went so far as to draw tentative
plans and specifications for the me-
mortal. But in practice. said they. as
embodied in the sketch put out by the
Mayors specially appointed commit

And then they clutched their hail
and pointed tragicaIly to said sketch
and groaned long and miserably
Who made the thing, they wanted tc
know. And what did he mean by max
ing an arch without consulting any.
body? And what did the Mayors spe-
cially appointed committee mean by
accepting an arch without first con.
sultlng somebody who knew something
about arches? And finally and above
all what the merry democracy kind OF
an arch was that anyway for a self
respecting and victorious army to come
nome and have to walk under-ie1
alone for New York City to have te
endure as permanent memorial?
There was some check in the pro
testations when it became known that
the man responsible for the sketch
was Paul Bartlett, president of the
National Sculpture Society. But the
final and conclusive response of the
Mayors committee is that the pub
lished sketch of the Victory Arch i.

hasn't even come together in forma

At the committees headquarters yes.
terday it was said that there is nc
definite plan yet as to the design OF
