DEMANDS
AUDIT BY
BANKERS
Vandegrift Asks Cover
nor To Request Probe
Of His Bond Activities.
DENIES STATE LOSS
Controller Opposed Deal
ing In Market On Spe-
culative Basis.

SACRAMENTO, Oct. Is. U.P)-
Against a background of threaten
ed legislative and grand jury in
yeStigations, ROLAND A. Vande-
grift, state director of finance. to-
day took the initiative in bringing
about an audit of his bond trans
actions in behalf of the state.
vandegrift requested Governor
Rolph to invite the California
group of the Investment Bankers
of America to examine his invest
ment of state funds.
The inquiry, Vandegrift declar-
ed, would disclose he had made
profit for the state of more than
$500,000, rather than a loss of
100000 as charged by State Treas
urer Charles G.. Johnson
| a letter to James L. Lockheed of
San Francisco, secretary of the
Investment Bankers of America,
asking that the investigation be
made.
At the same time Rolph ex-
pressed confidence in Vandegrift,
declaring him to be "as honest as
the day is long"
Commenting on the fact he had
first directed Governor Rolph's at
tention to the bond deals, State
Controller Ray L. Riley said:
I'm my judgment the state has
no business engaging in an anti
cipation of profits in the bond
market. The state buys for invest
ment. Therefore, a continuous
process of purchases and sales is
not in consonance with proper
state policies"
Riley declined to indicate wheth-
er he has any evidence of losses
sustained by the state in bond pur-
chases.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. Is. U.P)
joining the state political con-
troversies which arose when Gov.
James Rolph ousted two appointees
from the department of public
works, Charles g.. Johnson, state
treasurer, today charged that Rol-
land A. Vandegrift, director of
finance, deposited 100000 of
California state money in a small
Sacramento bank without interest
or security.
He said the money was deposit
ed in the Merchants National
bank, which he characterized as
the smallest capitalized banking
house in Sacramento" The bank,
| he added, is headed by Joseph H.
Stephens, "close confident of Gov
ernor Rolph and a Sacramento po-
litical figure who is drawing $4,000
year from the state as member
of the board of prison terms and
paroles, a position to which Rolph
appointed him."
The 100000 deposit, johnson
said, was 10 times the amount of
capitol stock of the bank. He as
serted that the bank paid the state
no interest for the use of the
money, and gave no securities
guaranteeing the safety OF the de-
posit.

Washington, D. C,
 June 13,1932

June 13, 1852
 On June 10 the House con- sidered the bill to create Fed eral home loan banks, which provides that continental Unit ed States and the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii shall be di- vided into 12 districts by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board. These banks are to function as reserve agency whereby building and loan and other institutions can raise funds on their seasoned home mortgage loans. A motion was made to strike out of the bill, which had been advocated by president Hoover, the words land the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii" Delegates Wick ersham and Houston, as we'll as others, spoke against the amendment, which was finally voted down. Delegate Wick ersham said: Alaska is the one commonwealth under the American flag that has no debt. We have had no failure of banks in Alaska. We are in the best financial condition of any part of the United States. We want, however, to continue to develop and build up the Territory. I have listened to the speeches in favor of this bill today in the hope it would pass and that we in Alaska could get the benefit of it. 1 hope you will not strike out these Territories, but will let us have an opportunity to build them up and make them what what they are now-great as sets of the United States"

Another bill intro duced in the Senate which has not been reported out, would license the fish traps operated within the Territorial waters by the Secretary of Commerce. Each license would apply to but one trap and would be for a period of five years.

ALASKA INTERESTS AT

By Will. A. Steel

The Delegate has been in- formed that the Department of Agriculture is now giving ser ious thought to the preparation of regulations for the open season on migratory birds for 1882. It is expected that soon after July 1 the Secretary will announce h e conclusions reached. Assurance is given that the desires of Alaska on this subject are being carefully considered, with the probabif- '-ty that two different periods will be fixed for the shooting of birds, to conform with the different time of flight in northern and southern Alaska. Senator Wolcott's Special Con- mittee on the Conservation of Wild Life Resources has rec commended that the open seas on be either 45 or 60 days, be- tween October 1 and January IS, bag limit 15; the exact date for each state to be determined by the Biological Survey after consultation with the game of- ficials of each state.

IN a mean house on a mean street
i on Staten Island. in New York
Harbor, Jim Mutrie is living out his
life. Once he was the hero of old
Broadway Once those handlebar
mustachios of his were known
where the bright lights flashed
around the old Hoffman House and
the famous Brunswick.
For Jim Mutrie was the first man.
ager of the New York Giants.
Mutrie was the man who put New
York back in the National League,
which it entered on its organization
in 1876, and quit until Jim put the
old town in the old circuit again in
1888.
In poverty, almost blind, you will
find Mutrie living out his days,
dreaming of the glories that used to
be his when the Giants played at
the original Polo Grounds, the field
on which the first polo matches in
this country were played, in Harlem.
Mutrie coined the phrase, I'VE are
the people," referring to his Giants.
Mutrie coined the very name
Giants. He had a lot of big fellows,
and one day, while on the coaching
lines, he shouted, Look at them
Giants. They can not be stopped"
The crowd took it up. Giants they
have been to this day.
Now Jim Mutrie, winner of pen
nantS with the Giants in 1888 and
1889, lives in poverty-and his
dreams.
