their demands for either shorter hours
or higher wages before the National
Recovery Administration in Washington
They charged nCn-conformanca with
the code. but this was denied by the
companies. So was the claim that as
high as 95 per cent OF the skilled work.
men had quit.
H. H Curtice. head of the A. C..
Spark Plug Co., declared that every
president and general auditor of the
Chevrolet Motor Co., said that so per
cent of the men reported involved in
the strike were on the job yesterday.
Coyle said that, since there are 15,-
600 men on the pay roll. "97 per cent
OF our employees recognize that we are
paying the maximum wages possible
under the present production schedule"
The company, he said. feels unable to
raise wages in view of the per cent
increase granted on May and an ad-
ditioral Is per cent given the men on
August l.
The disputed wage rate was not dis
closed, but one executive said it was
nearly the same as was paid in 1929
The striking workmen are affiliated with

out that, with $8O0,000,000 sur
plus in the Governments gen.

of Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration loans, the huge sum for

HARTMAN BANK
ALLIES FIGHT
j, 8. SUIT

NEW YORK, Dec. % G.N.S0.
Immediate drafting of a reply to
the suit of the Federal Govern
ment seeking to force the New
York Clearing House Association
and its 20 member banks to pay
in full depositors of the bankrupt
Hartman National Bank and
Trust Company was planned to-
day by attorneys for the banks
and the clearing house.
First action of its kind ever
undertaken by the Federal
Government, the suit filed in
supreme court here by Comp
troller of the Currency ]. F. T.
O'Connor asks payment OF
approximately $9.375,00O to de-
poSitors of the closed institution.
Persuasion Useless
Action of the comptroller fol
lowed fruitless effort by the
Government to persuade the
clearing house banks to make
payment to the Hartman de-
positors in accordance with writ
ten guarantees given on their be-
half by the clearing house COM
mittee during the critical banking
period in 1882 and 1888 when
the committee arranged with the
then currency comptroller not to
close the Hartman Bank lest 1t
precipitate crisis for other clear
ing house members.
The Governments suit also
named as defendants eight mem
bers of the clearing house execu-
tive committee and asked the
court to determine which de-
PENDANTS are liable, and to what
extent, to depositors in the Harrl-
man institution.
Pledge Seen Violated
Either the clearing house banks
failed to protect the Hartman
depositors to the extent implicit
in their pledge, the Government
charged, or the executive COM
mittee members "miSrepreSented
the facts and preached their
warranty" to the detriment OF
the depositors."
The individuals named in the
suit are Charles S. Mccain, Harry
E. Ward, George w. Dawson, H.
P. Howell, Gordon S. Rentschler,
Percy H. Johnston, William c.
Potter, and Mortimer N. Buckner,
president of the clearing house
association.
