HAYNES ANSWERS
TWO CIVIL ACTIONS
Former Bank President Re-
plies to Suits Charging
Funds Dissipated.

Harry v Haynes. former president
OF the Farmers and Mechanics Ma
tional Bank, today filed In the District
Supreme Court answer to two suits re-
Gently brought against him by Mrs.
Louise T. Chambers. Wardman Park
Hotel, who charged that he dissipated
$4,000 worth of stock, for which she
asks an accounting, and that he failed
to account to her for stock transactions
totaling $T3, 1854.
The banker declares that the woman
lost her money through stock transac-
lions and asserts that the suits have
been filed against him to diScredit him
in the mind of the public, so that he
might not be able to obtain a Just trial
of the criminal charges against him.
Haynes is under Indictment charging
Justification of bank entries, conversion
and embezzlement of funds Of the in
Stitution.
Through Attorney H. Winship Wheat
ley, the former bank president denies
that Mrs. Chambers in 1922 had for
safekeeping in the Vaults of the bank
1000 shares of the stock of Rogers Peet
Co. valued at $140 per share. He says
that on January 1, 1922, she owed the
bank $4,000 and the bank held the GER
tificates of stock as collateral. On jan
uary !, 1923, her loans had been in
creased to $4,000 and by January /,
1928, had reached $5o,775. When he
resigned as president in September
1928, Haynes declares, Mrs. Chamber
owed $59.610.24.
The banker admits making stock In
vestmentS for the account of Mrs.
Chambers, but asserts all were made at
her order or were confirmed by her.
Many of the transactions were under q
power Of attorney given him by her he
AYERS, and he has no objection to the

Haynes tells the court that the q. 8.
Attorney is In possession Of records
needed by him in the civil proceedings

Miss Collett went up at the ninth,

wet sand to the edge Of the green. She
held this margin Of 2 up through the
fourteenth, which was halved In Is.
Miss Collett seemed to have her
match we'll in hand, but she dropped
the fifteenth and sixteenth so suddenly
to Miss Gourlay that the American sup.
porters shivered. The fifteenth was lost
through q missed putt and the sixteenth

At the seventeenth the American

her brassie into the crowd and her
mashie found q bunker. She came out

Miss Gourlay, however. missed four

never had q chance after topping her
drive into a bunker. She was over the

safely on In 8. The English girl then
rushed across the green to congratulate

down under the Washington treaty at
a cost of $500, 100000 would not be laid
down in that time.
Senator Hale pointed out that the
French and Italians were permitted to
go ahead and build 10000 tons of bat
tleships If they wished. He wanted to
know II this fact did not endanger the
ratio OF battleShips and whether, If these
nations should construct 10000 tons

1urther building by Great Britain.
should think that the chance was
remote" replied Secretary Adams,
Senator Hale questioned Secretary
Adams about the clause in the treaty
which permitted unlimited construction
OF surface vessels from 600,0 900 to 20O,-
900 tons, bringing out that Japan was
particularly anxious for this provision.
Adams Doubts Value.
Secretary Adams said that he did
not think any navy would wish to
waste much money on this character
OF vessel, although Senator Hale in
sisted that they might be effective
against American commerce. There Is
a restriction on the character of arna-
nent which these vessels may carry
These vessels are chiefly tenders and
oilers.
Senator Hale also brought out that
Japan had asked for a provision that
no aircraft carrier of 10000 tons or
less mounting gun above 6.10 inch
caliber shall be acquired by any Of the
high contracting parties. He also
showed that under the treaty Japan is
permitted to build two new 5,000-ton
mine layers. This, Secretary Adams
admitted, was q concession to Japan.
He added the United States could have
had the. same privilege, but did not
want II.
Senator Hale questioned Secretary
Adams closely about the naval ratio
of the United States and Japan under
the London treaty. The chairman in
sisted that Japan had won concessions
which gave her larger ratio under the
new treaty than under the Washing
ton SIS agreement. Secretary Adams
pointed out, however, that at the WASH
ington conference Japan had agreed to
nothing in regard to auxiliary craft,
including cruisers, submarines and de-
stroyers.
Senator Hale maintained that Japan
was really getting a 1o-7 ratio In
regard to 8-inch gun cruisers, a 1877
ratio with destroyers, a l0-7 ratio for
battleships and 1877 ratio. for light
cruisers, and equality in submarines.
Secretary Adams insisted that the
arrangement with Japan was entirely
fair one.

PORTO R|CAN NEEDS

Gov. Roosevelt to Stress
Particularly Effects of
Hurricane.

Gov. Theodore Roosevelt Of Porto
Rico is to deliver an address dealing
with the problems which confront the
people of that island possession of the
United States in the National Radio
Forum tomorrow night at $50 pm.
The Forum is arranged by The Wash
ington Star and sponsored by the
Columbia Broadcasting System and will
be heard locally through w M A l..
The Governor of Porto Rico is in the
National Capital to urge strongly upon
Congress the need of appropriating
money TO aid the people of Porto Rico
to help themselves. The need arises
out of the conditions which have fol-
lowed the last disastrous hurricane
which swept Porto Rico Due to the
effects of that hurricane 1t is estimated
that so per cent of the working popu-
lation of Porto Rico is today unem-
ployed. Crops were ruined and build
ings and equipment were lost on a
large scale.
Gov. Roosevelt feels one of the i'm
mediate needs is the development OF a
system of roads to facilitate the market
ing of products of the Porto Ricans.
The governor was appointed by
President Hoover last year.
