HIGHEST COURT
OPENS LATE

For the first time in many years
the United States Supreme Court
yesterday failed to convene at its
usual time. Lack of a quorum
held up the session for Is minutes,
which is scheduled to meet
promptly at noon. Following yes.
terday's decisions session, the court
recessed until November 25.
In an important case involving
the rights of stockholders in land
banks and farm loan associations.
the court ruled that receivers an.
pointed by the Federal Farm Loan
Board cannot enforce by law pay,
} ment Of 100 per cent assessment
on bank stockholders.
The ruling was given in a case
appealed by j. r. Wheeler, Mil,
waukee, who contended only cred
1tors of the bank could enforce
this liability and that the Federal
board has exceeded it's authority
in this case through Howard
Greene, receiver of the Milwaukee
Joint-Stock land bank.
A number of joint-stock land
banks. Federal land banks and
farm loan associations with az
gregate liabilities of more than
$1,000,0O0,000 now are in the
hands of receivers appointed by
the Farm Loan Board.

TANG[E
THREATENS

Architects and designers OF the
proposed triangle in the improve
ment program for the Capital
made a serious error in failing
to consider the handlin Of
traffic.
This charge was made by the
board of directors of the Wash
ington Board of Trade in a
meeting yesterday, and immediate
investigation Of the situation was
recommended.
The charge Of an error on the
part Of those in charge of the
improvement program was made
by George v. Graham, chairman
of the committee on streets and
avenues of the Board of Trade.
Graham, whose charges were
based on the report of the COM
mittee, said that the most serious
error is the proposal to close
Thirteenth Street south of Penn
sylvania Avenue.
This closing, it was pointed
out, would be brought about by
the extension of two of the new
buildings across the street. A
suggested remedy for the trouble
was converting of a coIonnade
between the two buildings into
aSstreet, making possible the con-
tinuation Of Thirteenth Street to
B Street. Failure to do this, it
was declared, would cause a
serious traffic tangle.
The board also pointed out that
Thirteenth Street has just been
widened at the expense of Dis
trict taxpayers, and that this ex-
rense will be useless If the street
is blocked off.
A report on the matter is to be
made at the next meeting of the
full membership of the board,
when it is expected that action
will be recommended to the Dis
trict officials.
Increase of pay for members
of the police and fire depart
mentS was also recommended by
the board.
