Sister Hysterical
On Losing Fight
For Fathers Body
Court Awards Burial to
Daughter Who Pro-
vided Home.

Screaming Historically, one daughter
of the late Maurice E. Grimes, who died
two days ago, was carried from the
District Supreme Court Building today,
while her sister, winner of legal battle
for the right to bury the father, pro-
ceeded with plans for a funeral in Fred
erick County, Nd, this afternoon.
Grimes, q 60-year-old gardener, was
overcome by the heat while at work
Wednesday. His body was removed to
the Morgue. Shortly thereafter his wife,
Mrs, virginia Grimes of Baltimore, OBJ
tanned q permit from the acting coroner
to remove her husbands body for burial.
On the same day, Mrs. Beatrice
Wyatt, 1922 West Virginia avenue
northeast, daughter, applied to the
court for an injunction to prevent her
mother from arranging for the funeral:
She said the couple had been separated
for IT years and that her father had
lived with her during that time. Justice
recting the acting coroner to show cause
why the body should not be released to
Mrs. Wyatt.
In the meantime another daughter,
Mrs. Evelyn Matheney, also Of Balti-
more. came to Washington and she
sided with her mother.
After hearing arguments today Jus
tice Luhring decided that In view OF
the separation between the husband
and wife the daughter who had pro-
yided . home for him was entitled to
the privilege of arranging the funeral.

Origin Of Mountains.
All the earth's mountains have been
built up by three titanic forces, ac-
cording to a paper presented by the
japanese geologist, Dr. T. Tokuda OF
Toxic. These are sliding of parts Of
the earths crust into the sea, drifting"
of continents and upheavals in ancient
seas.
Each of the three great mountain
systems of the world, he said, is due
to a different one Of these forces.
Thus the Rockies. the Andes and the
Appalachians have been folded into
their present positions by the SLOW
probably through some force related
to the earth's rotation. In this drift
the continents have smashed against
the great, immovable mass Of heavy
rock forming the bottom Of the Pa
cific. It was a case of the irresistible
force meeting the inmoyable object
and the light rocks were crumbled be-
tween them.
The mountain ranges in Eastern Asia,
he believes, were due to a gigantic
landslide into the Pacific. A vast Sec
ton of the earth's crust at some time
was torn loose from the continent and
has been sliding down toward the CEN
ter of the Pacific It is still going on
and may explain the recent earth
quakes Of Japan. It has pushed up
mountain ranges In the sea, including
what are now the East Indian Islands.

CLAIMS FLOWING
TO MERGED BANKS
Date of Hamilton Opening
Not Yet Settled, Says
President Graham.

A flood Of letters has begun to pour
back into the eight member banks OF
the Hamilton National merger as de-
positors file their proofs of claim with
a speed that is surprising bank officials
This was indicated today by Edwin C.
Graham, president of the proposed
merger, who has ben calling in person
at the various branches of the Ham
ilton
Although this speed on the part OF
depositors has gratified officials of the
merger, President Graham today said
the opening date Of the bank still could
not be fixed because of several impor-
tant moves which must be completed
first.
Loaps Important Factor.
Among these important factors is the
reorganization of loans between the
member banks of the merger and the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
This was believed today to be nearing
final stages Of approval.
Meantime depositors in the member
banks have been coming in person to
many Of the branches to file their
proofs Of claim and to ask questions
concerning the opening of the Hamil-
ton merger.
Outstanding among these questions
has been the one: If get so cents on
the dollar made available when the
Hamilton Bank opens, what about the
other so cents?"
To Get Over 50 Per Cent.
The answer to this question rests in
the hands Of conservators of the eight
member banks, who have in their hands
the assets Of the banks remaining after
sufficient assets have been turned over
to the merger to make available the
first so cents All depositorS in the
Hamilton merger will receive more than
so cents on the dollar, according to
both President Graham and Capt.
Chester Wells, chairman of the Sub
scription Committee.
The proportion of the second so cents
which the depositor will get probably
will vary with the different banks. OFF,
cials of some banks in the merger are
all of his second so cents How much
of 1t the depositor will get depends in
each case on the amount of the money
the conservator will be able to realize
on the remaining assets of the bank
in his hands.
President Graham indicated today
that he was expecting soon to come to
an agreement on leases for the 9 bank
ing houses to be used by the Hamilton
Bank.
Two Important Points.
Two important points Of information
for depositors were stressed today by
conservators. In the first place, persons
with joint accounts we're advised that
it is necessary to have on all papers the
signatures Of both persons. In the
second place, conservators emphasized
that the bank pass book is not necessary
in presenting a proof Of claim on a
checking account, but pass books, and
other documents such as savings ac-
count books, Christmas savings &C
count books. certificates of deposits,
drafts, cashiers checks and similar
items must be brought into the con-
servator or mailed to him along with
the proof Of claim in order to verify
the claim 50 that the depositor can
have his money made available.

Church Federation Makes Plea
For Dismissed y. S. Employees
Ministers Cite Increase in
Centeel Poverty in
Washington.

The Washington Federation Of
Churches today sent an earnest appeal
to President Roosevelt in behalf Of the
many Government employees of long
years service and experience now being
dismissed. The President was asked to
instruct old and new Government agen-
cies alike to give "every possible pref
erence' In employment to persons who
have served long and faithfully and are
now dismissed or furloughed.
From the intimate knowledge Of the
lives Of their parishioners, the clergy
men composing the federation inform
the President that greater stress and
anxiety now exist among the people of
Washington than at any time within
the past so years. A large amount OF
genteel poverty has come into being
here. the President was told, by the
combined effects of the general depres-
sion, the unfortunate failures Of several
the "surprisingly long time" it has
taken to adjust the difficulties Of the
banks which closed last March.
The Federation's communication is
signed BY President William o. Tufts.
q layman who has been for many years
superintendent of the Sunday School
and q member Of the official board of
the Mount Pleasant Congregational
Church.
Text of Letter. u
The letter follows:
Dear Mr.. President:
THE Intimate knowledge Of Wash
ington Life possessed by the pastors and
religious workers of the city has led
US to the conclusion that greater stress
and anxiety now exists among our
population than at any time during
the past so years. Several Of the
clergymen of the city have made 1t a
special duty to call upon those recently
sepa.a ated from the Government service
and have unanimously reached the
above conclusion.
"A vast amount of genteel poverty
came into existence in Washington
through the general depression and
several unfortunate failures In real
estate investment firms This difficulty
was greatly increased by the closing of
the banks In March and the surpris-
ingly long period which has been re-
quired to adjust the banking difficulties
This distressing condition mas now been
augmented by the numerous separations
from the Government service, reduc-
tions In pay that was already meager
and the indefinite furloughs that have
been made. Many Of these men and
women have given their lives to the
Government service and are expert
specialists In their particular field. It is
practically impossible for them to find
new employment under present-day con-
ditions

BY the Associated Press.
The Interpretation which the Re-
covery Administration will place upon
the section of President Roosevelt's
blanket wage and hour agreement,
dealing with increased pay for employees
now receiving more than the minimum.
was awaited today by thousands Of en-
ployers.
A dozen or more formal opinions
upon various sections of the agreement
were said to be ready for PRONUNCIATION,
but would not be issued until the
troublesome cluase seven had been an
alyzed.
The return of Hugh S. johnson, the
administrator, from Detroit was awaited
before final decision was reached and
there were indications President Roose-
velt himself might be asked to consider
the question which was blocking agree
ments by many business houses.
The section to which employers were
asked to subscribe reads:
mot to reduce the compensation for
employment now in excess of the mini
mum wages hereby agreed to (potwitn-
standing that the hours worked in such
employment may be hereby reduced)
and to increase the pay for such en-
ployment by an equitable readjustment
Of all pay schedules"
Many employers have presented con-
tentions to the administration that by
providing equitable readjustment" of
the upper brackets, those firms which
have maintained the highest wages
would be penalized.
For instance, they assert, business
which had not decreased pay as much
as others, paying perhaps 81 an hour
as compared with 80 cents, would under
q 10 per cent increase be paying $1.10
while the wage cutter of the past would
enjoy an even wider differential.
Dozens Of other questions, including
the extent to- which railroads would
come under the Presidents agreement.
were being left for settlement after the
first group Of interpretations are issued.

We still have that to guide us
throughout next years race, if
we have no other guidance. AS
to the series recently ended, I
must say it was unusual to say
the least.
The Giants got off to an ex-
cellent start when they won those
two games in New York. This
made the task a very tough one
to overcome and it was more
than natural, I guess, that the
Giants were able to win so quickly
during the three games which
were played at Griffith Stadium.
Before the series started we
heard plenty about the great
pitching they were going to put
forth. Although a hit here or
there would have beaten everyone
of their hurlers in the games, we
were forced to realize in the end
that they had plenty Of pitching
strength from Hubbell down to
Luque, the latter who worked Sc
splendidly as relief man in Sat
urday's finale.
The only man who didn't give
us a great deal of trouble was
Freddy Fitzsimmons. We smackeo
him viciously in that third game
and I happened to be fortunate
enough to be his foe that day.
AS to the fighting spirit,
never saw two teams with any
more of it. A bit of it left the
Giants after the series progressed
as they naturally turned into 9
team full Of confidence. But II
rose up again when the going was
toughest, particularly on those
occasions when we fought men tc
the bases in 11th-hour bids FOL
final victory.
Now, in our cause, I'll say we
fought just as much, If not more
so than the Giants. We dldnt
quit for an instant, but as fate
would have it, we just couldn't
down a team that seemingly was
destined to become the champs
no matter what we had to say OF
do about the matter.
I understand Terry said after
Saturdays game that he hoped
that we'd meet again in next
years series. I hope so, too, ano
| I believe next time we'll beat 'en
and beat 'em good and proper, al
I still think the best team in the
world was defeated this year
And I don't say that in a spirit Of
stubbornness either. I sincerely
mean it.
