BANK POOL TO
BUY BONDS FOR
PROFITS ONLY
Disclaimer Against Move to
Act as StabiIizer Is
Announced.
By United Press

DH OWAff0 EFfhA
NEW YORK, June 4.-Operation
on the principle OF purchasing
bonds for profit without being a
rescue party" to business was the
announced policy today Of the newly
formed s10O,000.O00 corporation OF
twenty leading banking institutions
OF New York.
This frank policy in disclsiming
any intention Of acting as price
stabilizer." but standing ready to
supply bids for high gra lie bonds,
was considered by Wall Street OBJ
servers as setting up bulwark
which would prevent vice breaks
in the market, ordinarily caused by
the offering Of few issues.
Bidding by these bankers, OBJ
servers calculated, would bring q
large number of outsiders into the
market, and consequently bonds
would win over a great many new
friends.
The bond market has been suf-
fering for months from a paucity
Of bids.
Morgan Is Operator
The new company is to be known
as the American Securities Invest
ing Corporation, with its operation
carried out by j. P. Morgan g. Co
Application for a charter probably
will be filed in Albany today.
The corporations executive COM
mittee is drawn from the member
ship Of the Young committee OF
bankers and industrialists, which
was appointed on May 10 by George
L. Harrison, Governor Of the Fed
eral Reserve bank of New York, to
get bank credit useful afTirmatively
in developing bank credit"
It's activities, observers pointed
out, will fit in nicely with the fed
eral reserves aims and the Young
committee. With the new corpora
ton, all city banks will be on an
equal footing, with profits or losses
10 be shared by each. There is a
strong feeling in banking circles
that the new corporation will make
money"
Lamont at Head
Thomas w. Lamont of the Nor
gan house will head the corpora
ton. He emphasized that the policy
manifestly must be based in large
measure upon its confidence in final
action by congress in effectively bal
ancing the federal budget.
The corporation set-up will be
similar to that of National Credit
Corporation formed last fall to
make advances to needy banks. 1t
will have a purely nominal capital
and will obtain its funds through
the sale to banks or income deben-
lures.
Those on the executive commmit-
tee, which is headed by George
Whitney of the Morgan firm, are:
Albert H. Virgins, chairman of
the governing board of the Chase
National bank; Charles E. Mitchell,
chairman of National City bank
William c. Potter, president of the
Guaranty Trust Company; Jackson
E. Reynolds, president Of First Ma
tional bank, and Albert A. Tilney,
chairman of board Of the Bankers
Trust Company.
Other officers of the corporation
are Lansing P. Reed, partner Of law

of your motor car squeaks by just
riding with you and feeling the

FEAST DAY FRIDAY
ShabuOth Celebration Starts at
Shutdown Thursday.

Indianapolis Jews, like Jews
throughout the world, will observe
Shabuoth, the feast of weeks, next
Friday, and, as is traditional, the
holiday will start with shutdown
Thursday.
Shabuoth, sometimes called Pente-
cost, often is called the feast of
harvest" 1t is linked with the
early agricultural life of the Jews,
who brought to the temple in Je-
rusalem the first ripe fruits Of the
wheat harvest.
With the decline in the agricuI-
tural life Of the Jews, new stress
was laid upon this season at the
time when the ten commandments
were given at Sinai.

CHICAGO, June 4-Seventeen
years ago there appeared in the
want ad columns OF the Chicago
newspapers the following notice:
"Wanted-A perfect husband. One
who wants the happiness not of a

Today, John T. Mellish, 46, rose
from his cell in the Geneva CIll)
Jail and proceeded, as he has each
morning since his arrest, nine

Wood.
But Mellish was not Just as
wrapped up in me as in his work"
Science has been his master and
he serves 1t still in his daily trips
from jail. II was his wife who
placed him behind the bars with
a complaint on which the grand
jury acted. Also she has brought
suit for divorce charging cruelty
and claiming he forced her TO bear
eleven children, thereby endanger-
ing her health.
Happiness, not OF day, but of
a lifetime" has not come. Mrs.
Mellish lives with her youngest
children in the cottage next to the
laboratory in which her husband
works, but they have no communi-
cation. The older children are in
the custody Of juvenile authorities
He's a Genius
His science alone has taken in
tereSt in the plight Of Mellish, who
faces twenty years Imprisonment
on conviction of the charge to
which he has pleaded not guilty,
though Prosecutor George Carbary
said the attack on a 15-year-old
girl was admitted.
Mellish. who had just started his
astronomical research at the time

is a genius in rare art, astrono-
merS say. He discovered four comets
