DEATH OF ALLIES
MOURNEDRv
BANKERS
INTENSELY Human" Is Their
Characterization OF Life
of Financier
By RICHARD HATTON

Washington financial circles re-
ceived distinct shock in the an
nouncement yesterday Of the sud
den death of President Milton e,
Allies, of the Riggs National Bank.
Comment among bankers today was
to the effect that not alone Wash
ington, but the financial world OF
the nation, had lost an able out
standing figure. Mr.. Allies was re-
garded with affection by fellow
bankers as well as by a host of
personal friends which extended
from coast to coast and which
included the highest and the humb-
lest in the land.
While Mr.. Allies early training
was not that of technical banker
as he did not pass through the
usual long years of bank work that
lead to q. executive position, his
unusual mentality, his exceptional
vision and his insight into human
nature and quick grasp of essential
details made him, according to those
with whom he came into intimate
contact in his work in Washington,
one Of the keenest and most far
seeing bank executives in the coun
try.
In speaking OF Mr.. Allies today
many bankers recalled incidents of
his life here which indicated bis
complete democracy of character
and his deep interest in those who
served with him. Younger mem.
bers of the banking profession who
have had occasion to consult with
Mr.. Allies speak with deep feeling
Of his kindly human interest in
their affairs. This interest was not
confined to the official personnel
Of his bank but extended to the
humblest employee. and many lowly
citizens of Washington are, today,
mourning a sincere friend whose
kindness and assistance made life
more worth living at some critical
period when encouragement and
help was required.
It is said Of Mr.. Allies by those
who have worked with him that he
never uttered a harsh word of com.
plant or Of criticism, but gave ad.
vice in a kindly manner which
seemed to include himself in the
situation that called forth the re-
buke or the correction.
While Mr.. Allies was stern in his
personal attention to his duties he
was, also, a lover Of the out.of.
doors and spent as much time as
was possible on the golf links or
hunting. It Is said of him that.
although g. poor shot, he was indie
fatigable ia his hunting and en-
joyed nothing better than a day
with shotgun and dogs even IL the
game bag was not filled.
Possibly the most frequently ex-
pressed opinion OF Mr.. Allies, both
by business friends and acquaint.
ances and by those who had known
him in a less intimate manner, was
that he was intensely human"
AS one prominent Washington
banker said today: ITO honestly
earn the reputation Of being hu-
man Is, In itself, no small achieve
ment in this day of practical bust.
ness philosophy"
Appropriate action upon the
death Of Mr.. Allies will be taken
by the District Of Columbia Bank.
ers Association and by other clubs
and organizations Of which he was
q member. President Francis M.
Addison Of the District Of Columbia
Bankers Association took immediate
steps to call the association to.

passing Of Mr.. Allies.

quest Of additional large and small

"armor plated" rhinoceros district.
The Roosevelts, it is presumed. were

BOBCATS, BEARCATS
TO TANGLE FRIDAY

SAN MARCOS. Nov. 1.-THE Bob
cats OF the Southwest Texas Teach
ers' College will play the Bearcats of
the Sam Houston Teachers College
Friday in Huntsville. Neither team
has shown very much this season, but
the Bobcats victory over the ST. Ed
wards team last Friday gives them a
little edge in the dope over their OPP
ponents. 1t seems that both teams
have been slow i'll getting started and
are now at their best. In the games
of previous years the dope bucket has
been spilled when these two teams
meet. At home. the Bearcats usually
give the Bobcats a close call. but when
the game is in San Marcos the Bob
cats always have emerged victors.
The Bobcats played their best game
of the season against Coach Mcagher's
Saints last Friday. outcharging, out
fighting, and outplaying them in al
most every department of the game.
The showing of Thompson, Morton,
Knispel and Arnold in this game was
very pleasing TO the coaches, and
helped to fill some of the weak places
on the team. With all of the regu
lars about recovered from their in

SEEK ACCURATE
VELOCITY
Of LIGHT

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 11.-P)-
If DIR. A. A. Nicholson succeeds in
establishing the accurate velocity of
light he will deem the achievement
sufficient for the career Of one scien-
fist.
The head Of the department of phys
les at the University of Chicago told
the National Academy of Sciences
this in announcing he had come within
plus or minus" 20 miles n second of
establishing the true velocity and that
determination TO a minute degree of
accuracy was a possibility.
Experiments with octagon mirrors
in two mountains in the Sierra Ne
vadas in 1924, produced his present
results. Next spring the scientist will
attempt to reduce the degree of ac-
curacy to within "plus or minus" five
miles second of the true figures and
then the true velocity in later ex-
pertinent.
The academy. which ends its three
day session tonight with a visit to
Icrkes observatory at Williams Bay.
has been thrilled this year by two i'm
portant announcements, that of DIR.
Nicholson and the discovery by DIR.
A. Millikan of the California Institute
of Technology, of the existence of new
rays stronger than ultra Mays and
1000 times greater in frequency. Sci
entists here were of the opinion that
the rays should bear the name of their
discOverer.
