RULES BANKS MAY
CLOSE SATURDAY

Any bank in Washington can close
Saturday IL lit wants to take the
chance Of standing responsible for
losses to clients by reason of such
action, according to an opinion handed
down today by Benjamin +. Bucha-
nan, counsel for the office OF the
Comptroller Of the Currency. under
whose jurisdiction all banks OF the
District come.
There Is no restriction as Tar as the
national aoA is concerned. according
to Mr. Buchanan. There is a wide
spread belief in banking circles that
closing ON any day but a legal holt
day Is illegal. There is also belief
that collaborative action of all banks
is necessary to close for any period,
but such is not the case.
The matter Of closing all banks for
the halliday Saturday was embodied
in a resolution adopted at the bankers
convention at Deer Park last week,
with the proviso that the associations
counsel deemed 1t legal The mat
ter was turned over to J. ]. Darling
ton, who, in an opinion expressed yes
terday afternoon. declared that there
were certain cases in which a bank
might be held responsible by reason
of not being open Saturday.
Mr. Buchanan stated, that as was
the case OF a decision given last
year when the question OF closing
the banks Wednesday afternoons dur
ing the summer months was taken up
IL was held that unless this was
such a widespread custom that It,
was recognized by the public, the
banks would be held responsible for
losses incurred. In the case of the
Mexican border raids. he said, Il was
held THAI banks could close at any
time It was necessary for the safety
OF their personnel on account of acts
Of common enemy.
Although there is a desire on the
part OF bank officials to allow their
employees a full three-day holiday
instead Of requiring them to come
back to work for a half day Satur-
day, It is not believed that this will
be done on account OF possible legal
tangles which may result Washing
ton has no representative govern
ment with power to declare the day
a legal holiday as Is the case in the
States where inhabitants are citizens
A call fro mthe Comptroller OF the
Currency for the financial condition
of banks as of June 30, is expected
Monday by local bankers. Preliminary
forms were received this morning.
A call was made last year as OF June
30, the close OF the fiscal year, as
they have run true to form" 50 far
during 1919 it is believed that the
coming call will be for the last Mon
day.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov 5.-Al
though there was an unmistakable
sentiment among those in close touch
with the United Mine Workers head
quarters here that the strike of Goa
miners would be of short duration, nc
tangible foundation for this belle
could be found today.
No proposals have been made by the
department of labor toward lifting the
restraining order on condition miners
would submit the issues to federal
arbitration board, 1t was stated posi-

Joint bargaining" is the only means
for strike settlement pointed out by
Acting, President John l.. Lewis, in the
only statement he has issued since
the strike was called.
Miners chiefs were waiting today
for either the government or the coal
operators to set the machinery of Joint
that either the government or oper.
ators would do so could be discovered
here. An important meeting of mine
operators Of Indiana fields was seized
uled to be held at Terre Haute, In.
diana today. The purpose of the meet
ing was not disclosed, but some an
swer was expected to claims made by
Ed Stewart, president of the Indiana
coal miners that he had received pro
posals tending toward settlement of
the strike from few operators.
Phil Penna, spokesman for the op-
orators, set at rest all reports t.
the meeting would plan to reopen the
coal mines. In view of the situation
Penna stated, it would be foolhardy
to even think Of opening the mines.
The plan mapped out by attorneys
for the United Mine Workers to fight
the government Injunction suit in fed
eral court today was approved by the
officers of the union.
The fight will center on the appeal
by the government for court order
union leaders to withdraw
til cir, strike call and also on the plan
ned appeal Of the miners for modifica-
ton of the restraining order so that
strike benefits may be paid.
Fear that the public will form con-
illusions on issues in the strike OF
coal miners without hearing the
miners viewpoint, was expressed by
OF the United Mine Workers
of America today.

Ellis Searles, union spokesman
said:
Letters and kilograms from news
papers and periodicals throughout the
country have been received at head
quarters of the United Mine Workers
requesting information in regard to
the Issues involved in the controversy
between the miners and the opera

However, It might be claimed that
the federal Injunction, issued at thA
request of the government, prevents
the miners from presenting their side
of the case to the public at this time.
