OF the American Bankers Associa-
zion in which he stressed the
recognition among Washington
bankers of the benefits of getting
together for the discussion of
common problems.
The local association, according
20 McQuade, inaugurated the
weekly luncheons in order to
orlng about more intimate and
more frequent contacts. He is
quoted thus: ..l

Catherine Dale Owen plays the
wife who flinches at the first
touch Of hard luck. Accustomed
to champagne parties, unlimited
credit. costly jewels, foreign cars
and the luxuries of wealth, she is
appalled, at the prospect Of pov'
erty and beginning all over again.
A friend suggests that she capa-
tiliZe on her beauty and charms
in the easiest and most CONNER
cial way. Accordingly while the
husband tries to rebuild his
fortunes as a used car salesman
the wife is surreptiously treadins
the rose path Of deceit. Eventually
Fred discovers his wife is q
cheater, the revelation drives him
temporarily insane and he resorts
to the pistol for a solution.
