FAKE FIRE CALL BUG
SENT TO GALLINGER
Judge Given Orders Mental Test
for William Webb, Pleading
Guilty en- False Alarms.

Police Court Judge Ralph Given to-
day said he did not believe William
David Webb's motive for turning in 10
false fire alarms early yesterday was
al ogether due to being lonely"
So he sent Webb a retail worker, to
Gallinger Hospital for Today mental
test after the prisoner had entered a
guilty plea to one of the charges placed
against him yesterday by police. SEN
tence was held in allegiance until the
court has received report from the
hospital authorities.
Webb insisted to police that his men,
tai faculties were normal and that he
was ready to take his punishment.
Judge Given, however, believed that
WebbS stunt was so unusual that a
medical examination should be made
before sending the 13-year-old man to
prison.
The metal worker, according to his
story, arrived at home early yesterday
after he spent part of the night on
"Jamboree. He said he quarreled with
members Of his family and left the
house, 1928 street southeast, very
mad and lonely
He then sought solace in making the
fire apparatus run. In less than two
hours he had pulled 10 fire alarm boxes
and had broken the glass in two more.
His last box and the last he said he
intended to pull before leaving Wash
ington forever was at Ninth and D
streets. There he was practically caught
in the act by Police Sergt. w. II.
Thomas. He was held without bail for
trial.

indicated the action Of Germany's cap
tains of industry and finance made an
excellent impression in other countries,
especially England
IL is expected in official circles that
concrete negotiations for long-term
foreign credits on a large scale will be
started Immediately.
The drastic decision to undertake a
joint guarantee of individual foreign
credits was announced by Hans Luther,
president of the Reichsbank, at mid
night, after it had become apparent
during the day that the demand for
foreign currencies continued strong,
despite the signing of the Hoover plan.
Give Collateral Guarantees.
Technically, the action of the indus
trialists was to place at the disposal
of the German Gold Discount Bank
a collateral guarantee of 500, 000, 900
marks fer which the signers, each of
whom has assets of at least 100000
marks, are responsible.
Meanwhile the gold discount bank
must borrow the 500,o0o,ooo marks
abroad. which presumably will not be
difficult on the basis of the collateral
guarantee. The same foreign banks
who are unwilling to extend the short
term credit of an individual company
may be expected to take different
attitude toward the united security of
a thousand firms.
Having obtained the loan. the Gold
Discount Bank then could provide
credit assistance to German concerns
temporarily distressed by the sudden
calling of their Short-term loans. Most
important. however. is the fact that
as soon as foreign lenders realize that
German industry is upholding the in
tegrity of private debts it is believed
they will cease calling their loans and
capital will flow into Germany, instead
of out.
Herr Luther read letter from the
firms represented, saying: I'VE hope
now that the signing of the pact by ell
the powers concerned will furnish the
basis for a sure, even though dificult,
restoration. Our goal. meanwhile,
must be to restore confidence in Ger
many and also the confidence Of Ger
mans.
Too Sudden for Comment.
"Of course, this guarantee of ours
can take practical effect only If the
Reichsbank directorate, in cooperation
with the various foreign banks of issue,
succeeds in providing the necessary re-
lief for German industry and credit
through the foreign banking world"
When asked If the credit already had
been arranged on the basis OF this
move. Herr Luther only smiled uncom-
municatively.
The action came too suddenly for
comment in most morning papers, but
the Industrialist Deutsch Allgemeine
Zeitung applauded it as "proof to the
world that economic and political
forces, ready to spring into the breach
where the common good is involved, are
not lacking in Germany"
