WITNESSES HEARD
in NWARDMAN PROBE
Government Begins Investi.
cation in Milwaukee of
Defunct Company.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE,, Wis, September 30
Fifteen witnesses appeared before the
Federal grand jury here yesterday as
the Government started an investtga-
tion of the sale by Halsey, Stuart 6S
Co. of about 100000 in Wardman
Properties, Inc. bonds to Wisconsin
residents.
Most Of the witnesses were employees
or former employees Of Halsey Stuart
g. Co. James D. Hobbs of WASH
ington, former vice president of one
of the Wardman investment companies,
remained in the jury room more than
an hour
Authorities said the purpose Of the
probe, coming after months of work by
the United States Bureau of 1nvestiga-
ton, Is to determine whether high
pressure" methods of selling Wardman
securities constitute violation of the law
or use of the mails to defraud.
The Wardman bond issue of S13 $780,
900 was floated by syndicate of invest
ment houses to refinance II buildings
in Washington, including the Wardman
Park Hotel. The issue was underwritten
and sold by Halsey. Stuart & Co. The
bonds originally sold at 100, defaulted
in interest and principal and now are
quoted at 10.
Hearing of evidence probably will be
finished today, according to Forest A.
Harness. Washington, special prosecu-
tor. The case was brought to Mil
waukee because a substantial number
of bonds were sold in this section and
numerous complaints were received
from losing investors here.

GREEN IS PLEASED
BY JOBS INCREASE
August and September Show.
ing Best Since 1929 in
Union, He Says.

The gain "in employment in Septem-
ber is encouraging" President William
Green of the American Federation OF
Labor said today in his monthly report.
He pointed out this was the first time
since 1929 that employment had gained
both in August and September among
union men.
While the improvement is not
enough to show definite upturn," Mr..
Green said, restoration of the normal
seasonal trend suggests returning con-
fidence."
Despite the showing presented in re-
ports received at headquarters here
from State federations. however, Presi-
dent Green's statement said unemploy-
ment increased by 100000 in August for
the country as whole. The cause was
attributed to wage earners being laid
off in smaller industries.
Contrary to expectations based on
trade union reports" Mr.. Green said,
"our estimation of total unemployment
in the United States. based on Govern
ment figures. shows more out of work in
August. For the country as whole,
11,400,000 we're out of work in July and
1l,5UO.UOO IN August.
100000 Farm Men Released.
This increase is due to the fact that
many of the smaller industries, which
do not feature in the news. but which
nevertheless control jobs for wage earn
ernS, have laid off men. In agriculture
alone nearly 100000 farm laborers were
released after the July harvest.
Government indices show that while
employment improved in some of our
major industries, the gains have not
yet spread throughout. In manufac-
turing and in mining, workers were
taken out, but on the whole. not in
large numbers, compared to the num-
ber unemployed"
Mr.. Green warned that the employ
ment gains were seasonal in character
with few exceptions, and I'VE cannot
count on large numbers going back to
work through normal channels, unless
measures are taken to create jobs"
He cited the recent report, Of the
Labor Department that general relief
given in July in 125 cities was more
than double last years payments
"'Unquestionably the Winter ahead Of
us holds suffering never before expert
enced in this country" Mr.. Green as
serted. land no adequate means are yet
IN SlgHC 10 prevent IL.
Federal Plans Pushed.
Leaders of the Government recon-
struction program are hard at work on
schemes to create jobs, but getting
men back to work by the million is
necessarily a slow task and, unless
progress is speeded, by whole-hearted
cooperation of all, millions of families
will have to be supported by charity.
We estimate the depression has
dragged 100000 persons below mini
mum standards for health and eff
cheney, including workers and those
dependent upon them. Starva-
tion, illness. the moral evils of unem-
ployment, are eating away the very
fiber of our national being.
I'VE can prevent much Of this de-
terioration if we have the will to do it.
There is still time to stave off the
Winters unemployment if business
men. financiers, workers and all citizens
in every community will cooperate to
shorten work hours. create jobs and
raise money for relief. The present
emergency calls for patriotism of the
highest order Let us not fall short"

FEW CITIES HIT
BY BANK TROUBLE
New Analysis of Adjustments
Fixes 80 Per Cent as
Those Affected.
By the Associated Press.

by Tie hSSOCldIeu FTeSS.
CHICAGO, September 30-A new
analysis of banking adjustments in the
United States reveals that SO per cent
Of all towns and cities have experienced
mo bank trouble whatever" since jan
uary. 1880.
OF the Nations 10275 cities and
towns with population Of 1000 or
more, the survey says, only 420 of those
which had banks in 1927 are without
banks today.
This review Of bank adjustments will
be published tomorrow in the Bankers
Monthly.
MANY people think bank adjust
mentS have been universal" the maga-
zine will say. THE truth is that
trouble has been concentrated in less
than one-third of the cities and towns
with banks"
In 1921, the survey points out. there
was bank for every 1000 people in
the United States, while today there
Is one bank for every 5000 people.

we are better off with 5000 people per
bank than with $4,000 Gas in 188O,"
the analysis states, "but it does seem
reasonable to assume that we are bet
ter off with 5000 than we were with
1000 per bank.
The really good news and the news
that ought to stop every calamity
monger is that no bank trouble has
been recorded in 68 per cent OF all the
cities and town in the United States
since the first of 1880.
There have been no banks closed in
those towns; tl.ere have been no
mergers or consultations; no bank has
been taken over by another or reor-
ganized There have been no banking
adjustments of any kind.
THE forced readjustments have been
concentrated in 1895 cities and towns
out of 1874 which had banks in 1880.
Some of those towns that did have
trouble of course. are really in better
shape today. from a banking stand
point, than they were two and one-half
years ago Excessive competition has
been eliminated"
Bank Trouble in Five States.
In only five States, the survey re-
ports, have as many as half the towns
reported bank trouble.
In Arizona so per cent reported such
trouble. in North Carolina, 81 per cent;
in Arkansas, SO per cent; in North
Dakota, 50 per cent, and in South Caro-
lima. 81 per cent. All other States had
lower percentages.
In contrast, the analysis continues,
Rhode Island reports 96 per cent OF its
banking towns without any trouble
since January, 1880. Other high per-
centages were reported by Vermont.

shire, 90; Massachusetts,, SO; New York.
IS; California. "a: Maine, "a; Wis
consin, 3d. New Mexico, 70; Louisiana,
79, and New Jersey, 78.
Banks of today are larger than ever
before, the survey says, citing figures
to show that the average resources for
all banks have grown from S1.6l2,0 900 in
1921 to S3.020,200 in July, 1882.
