 "The bank commissioner will in- vestigate and if he finds that the pro- posed bank is needed and lives up to rules and regulations most probably he will grant the charter, but If he finds this is not the case he certainly will not grant the charter"

LONELIEST OUTPOST
SET UP IN KARA SEA
2 Soviet Scientists Get Supplies
Once A Year

= LENINGRAD, April 19.-(By the
Associated Press. What is said to be
the most lonesome outpost in the world
for human beings has been set up at
Karsk, on the Kara sea, an arm of the
Arctic, in the form of wireless and
Observation-Disclosures station. The Kara
sea is blocked by ice the greater part
of the year, being passable for ships
during only a few weeks in summer.
The Academy of Sciences in Lenin-
grad announced recently that four
smaller stations also had been estab-
lished on the Kara sea by the Soviet
government, each of these being COM
bined with a o-meteorological bu-
reau. The wireless station at Karsk
keeps in touch with vessels in Polar
waters and sends out weather forecasts
regularly. There are but two men at
the station and, because of the ice and
weather conditions, it is possible to
send them supplies only once every
year. The chief recreation of the
meteorologists and wireless operators
is hunting and fishing.

LONDON CAPERS

Usual Holy Week Observ-

This Year

LONDON, April 19.-(By the As
ISOLATED Press. Holy Week, formerly
observed with religious quiet in LON

brimful of amusements as any ordinary
week in the year. All but two theatres
held their usual Thursday and Satur-
day matinee performance, and one
went so far as to advertise an after
noon performance on Good Friday, but
this was not carried out.
The only theatres which continued the
old custom of closing its doors for the
entire period of Holy Week was Drury
Lane Theater, which is as conservative
and devoted to tradition as Bucking-
ham Palace or Westminster Abbey. His
Majestys another theatre that hsa
seen generations come and go, had no
performances either on Holy Thursday
or Holy Saturday.
Elsewhere in the theater district the
Primrose Path that used to be closed
for spiritual repairs at the end of Lent,
has been wide open all week. In the
cabarets and night clubs the popping gof
champagne corks. the blaring Of saxo-
phones, the rhythmic gliding of light
slippered feet and the laughter of
merry-making men and women went on
without pause.
Some Of the old customs survived but
they were mostly such as to enrich few.
and to bring at least a moderate pleas
ure to many. Good Friday for exam.

AVOID LUXURES,
KEEP FAMILY TIES,
PLEAD SHINES
Merchant Prince Sought
To Insure Continuance
Of His Work

Copyright 1924 for The Age-Herald.)
BERLIN, April 19.-Hugo SHINES
bequeathed two things to his family
which he believed would perpetuate his
influence-his enormous estate and a
set of maxims which he exhorts his
heirs to apply in administering it.
On the eve of his elaborate funeral
was obtained the industrial emperor
crisp code of life, which was repeated
to his entire family before his death.
Hugo SHINES, merchant" he signed
himself, but it was apparent he re-
garded himself as Hugo SHINES, mer-
chant prince. with an industrial king
dom that was about to pass out of his
reluctant hands.
Family -Fact0ry.State
The family-the factory--the state
These chapters were the all-inclusiye
sum of human experience to him. The
family was to be one united entity, be-
cause only as such could it build for
the factory. Building for the factory
meant building for the state. Money
was merely material for further work.
1t was never to be used for the gratifi-
cation of personal desires.
Shortly before his death the family
gathered about him and he repeated !:
Remember, no quarrels. To each
one your place has been assigned. There
shall be 10 divergent interests. If
any question arises, your mother shall
be the sole judge and final arbiter.
You are united to build. What
have gathered l consider merely as a
foundation for the structure you. and
those who come after you, will erect.
Let no personal considerations sway
you from the goal. Marriages must
not interfere and must not disrupt
family unity. As you have been to-
gether with me, so you will be together
after am gone
Announces Cabinet
SHINES looked sppealingly at his son
Edmund, who, with Hugo. Jr., will as
sumo most of the responsibility in the
family. Edmund had wanted to study
philosophy and had manifested no in
terest in commerce. Edmund nodded
his head.
1t was then that SHINES announced
his cabinet-Voegler for coal. Fehrman
for oil, Dehtars for ships and Calver-
han in Russia and the Orient.
From his words it is apparent he left
no individual in the family any money
as such.s
His passion for family unity is ex-
planned by his fear that his family
will disintegrate as did the Roths-
childs. In his standardized mind he
had room for one sentiment-pride in
race.
His views on charity, which led to
the assumption there viii be no chari-
table provisions in the will, are simple
don't waste money. He regarded him
self as a benefactor because he gave
employment. He was willing to pay
heavily, especially for extraordinary
service, but, as he told his family, char
ity meant giving to the useless
