TEST WILD LEASE
Refuse to Accept Savings
Concern Rental.

Court action to determine if the
State Savings and Trust CompanyS
lease on banking rooms Of the de-
funct J. p. Wild e. Co. State bank in
the Wild building, 1913 East Market
street, is valid, will be filed soon, it
was learned today. The lease was
made by Richard Lowther, bank re-
ceiver.
Circuit Judge Harry o. Chamber
lin granted a petition of Edgar M.
Blessing, receiver of the Wild Realty
Company, which operates the build
ing, permitting him to refuse to &C
cept further rentals from the occu-
pants. The petition stated that sub
SeQuent moves to determine validity
of the lease will be taken, probably
by the savings company.
One of the foremost points Of the
litigation will be whether LoWther,
as bank receiver, had authority to
lease property of the realty COM
pany, a separate concern, operating
the bank structure.

Rupture is not tear, but purely mus

not strengthen them-on the contrary, the

WASHINGTON, Lay 2.-Secrc-
tary of Treasury Mellon testified
in his deposition in a civil suit last
year that he was not generally con
suited about the business of the
Aluminium Company of America
:" but if there was anything of i'm
portance in the way of policy or
something that way 'nink l usual
ly was.'
Melons phase IN connection with
Aluminium Company activities Il;
been made an issue in the Senate
judiciary Committee which held :
fifth session today to determine f
the secretary's stock holdings con
stitute an interest in trade or com
merce which should bar him from of
flee under the law. This testimony,
in the custody of Senator Walsh, of
Montana, who discovered it, was
made available today for publiea-
tion, upon request.
The issue as admitted by botl
sides is whether Mellon 5 stock
ownership in the aluminium and 9th
er coMOanics constitutes an in
terest.
The deposition was taken in {
New York hotel, july ,, 1928, il
connection with suit brought
against the James B. Duke and
Mellon interests. 1t is essential tC
the present case only because it is
being used as an argument by Mel
lon s opponents to show that he was
involved in the Aluminium Com
pany business and therefore he
should be excluded from office.
The Senate Judiciary Committee
which has been arguing the cas-
for four days, started today its
fifth day of argument. The ques
ton seemed to be whether it shoulc
report to the senate on the point
of law involved in his continuance
in office.
The committee held an hour ano
half session but was unable tC
reach a vote on the question OF
Melons !eligibil}ty, and adjourn

SHULER ADMITS
KNOWING OATH
WAS FALSE ONE

Los ANGELES, May .. U.P) --
The second trial of Rev. r. p.
" Bob Shulcr on charges of Grim
inal libel of the fourth degree
Knights of Columbus reached a
dramatic climax in municipal court
here today when Rev. Shulcr's at
torney admitted the minister knew
an "oath' > he printed in his maga-
zine during the iaat presidential
campaign never had been taken by
any member of the fratcrna; order
The prosecution, apparently salts
fled il had established an impor-
tant point, furnished another sur
prise when it rested its case after
calling two witnesses to the stand.
The witnesses were William G..
Mckinley, national secretary of the
Knights of Columbus, and Grant V
Jenkins, chief complaining witness
against Shulcr.
Both testified that the so-callcd
"bloody oath' was not part Of
the ritual of the Knights of CoIum-
bus order.
Wished to Call Judges
The admission on the part of Paul
Orr, Shulcr s attorney, came when
David Cannon, special prosecutor for
the district attorneys office, of
fered to call four superior judges
of Los Angeles courts to the stand
and have them testify that they
were members of the order IN,
never had taken such an oath as
Shuler printed.
At this point DOT arose anC
said that both he and Rev. Shuler
were aware of the falsity of the
printed "oath."
AS soon as the prosecution clos
ed, the defense started reading the
entire booklet, "Al Smith, in
which the "oath' appeared.
D'Orr said that he hoped to prove
by the reading that, taken in its
entirety, the booklet did not con
stitute libel against the Knights
of Columbus but served merely as
a political pamphlet during Il heat
cd campaign.
