SO Chicago Banks
Terminate Holiday

CHICAGO, March 13 G.N.S).
Thirty-three Chicago banks, in
cluding IA national and 10 State
institutions, reopened today with
no untoward incidents marking
the return to normal business.
The usual Monday morning
rush was noted on all bank floors.
Large quantities of gold and gold
certificates were deposited or
changed to some other forms of
currency. Extra StaffS of clerks
plunged with swift efficiency into
the task of bringing the flow of
exchange back to normal.
At the Continental Illinois Bank
and Trust Company, the largest
bank west of New York city, the
doors were opened an hour ahead
of the regular time. Both the
commercial and savings depart
mentS indicated that business was
brisk, with lines about equally di-
vided at the paying and receiving
windows.

BLANTON OPENS
PAY GUT FIGHT

Renewing his fight to reduce
salaries Of Federal and District
employees who receive more than
$1,000 annually, Representative
Thomas L. Blanton (D) Of Texas
today introduced a bill in the
House which would repeal the
1923 classification act and also
subsequent amendments.
Under the bill, all salaries in
cluded nit would automatically
go back to the same status they
held prior to the effectiveness of
the classification act.
Blanton, in the measure, in
cluded a list of So-called high
Salaried jobs in the Federal
service and declared:
There numerous efficient and
worthy employees drawing salaries
below $1,000 who have zealously
worked for the Government for
years, who have not had a raise
in salary for 10 years, the ap-
preparations designed to relieve
them having been used in getting
preferential classification and re-
rtAinings to pet heads Of units"

ROOSEVELT ASKS
BEERAT ONCE

CONTINUED from Page One)
the multitude of beer bills al
ready introduced, refer it to the
Ways and Means Committee, and
then pass it. No hearings will be
held, he said.
The House will pass the bill
prior 10 the expected recess on
Wednesday, but it is doubtful if
an attempt will be made to push
it through the Senate before the
legislators reconvene after the re-
cess.
It's passage through both
houses is assured, for the Demo
Gratis are overwhelmingly in con-
troll and 1egalization Of beer was
one of their most popular cam
paign pledges and issues.
What the dryS will do remains
to be seen. Many Of them have
given up all hope of stopping
beer since the election, and what
fight they have may put up prob
ably will be of a desultory char
acter.
The first sentence of the Presi-
dents message had not been COM
pleted in the House before the
reading was interrupted by ap-
plause and cheers.
AS the message ended, the DEM
onStration was repeated with
scores Of Representatives on both
sides shouting "vote" and demand
ing an immediate show down.
Speaker Rainey referred the
message to the Ways and Means
Committee.
Points Out PitfaH
Representative O'Connor CD
of New York urged the commit
tee to avoid repeating the Collier
beer bill, which passed the last
House. He pointed out:
"It was done in great haste
and there was no opportunity
for amendment. For one thing
it required the manufacturer
of nOnintOxicating beer to Sc
cure a license from the Pro
hibitiOn Bureau instead of the
Internal Revenue Bureau, and
it imposed the same penalties
for violation as those imposed
upon manufacturers Of intOxi-
eating liquor"
Representative Kahn RO, Cali
fornia, asked:
did that bill make any pro-
vision for light wines?"
"It should have but it was
found to be impracticable. Any
how l don't believe 3.2 per cent
wine would be very interesting"
O'Connor was answered by
Representative Blanton CD Of
Texas, a last ditch dry, who cited
the statements of many Repre-
sentativeS of both parties that
80 beer actually is intoxicating,
and that they could not vote for
it without violating their oaths of
office.

POSTAL CLERKS
PROTEST GUT

The United National Association
Of Post Office Clerks has entered
q protest against further wage
cuts in a letter from Thomas F.
Dolan, president of the organiza.
ton, to President Roosevelt.
Mr.. Dolan points out further
that the postal worker has &C
cepted a life of devotion to duty,
and in return security of position
and stabilization of pay are only
reasonable expectations. He con-
tinueS:
''If these safeguards are re-
moved, or if the modest pay of
such employees is SIashed with
every economic disturbance,
then this practically means the
end of the civil service, and it
also removes the incentive for
men to give their lives to the
public service or the national
defense"

MRS.ROOSEvELT
To HAVE REST

The job Of being mistress OF the
White House looks like a vacation
to Mrs. Roosevelt.
Once she has arranged the fam
ily's own furniture and hung
"Franklin's" pictures to suit him.
she feels she is going to have her
first "easy time in years"
Incidentally, speaking of the
President, she says Franklin" or
my husband" She claims that
sometime" she rememberes the
more formal "the President" but
at her press conferenc this morn
ing she didn't remember once.
Hanging the Presidents beloved
collection of naval pictures is the
big job at present confronting the
new First Lady. He is. she says,
very particular about their hang
ing and finds time only around
midnight to say where he wants
'em hung.
The Presidents collection is one
of the most complete in the
world. He has been collecting
them ever since he was Ii and
they are everywhere.
Mrs. Roosevelt herself does not
collect" Being the wife of a
rabid enthusiast, she has found,
keeps her sufficiently busy.

ROPER'S SLASH
AWAITED

The Commerce Department was
a center of excitement today, as
a result of announcement that
the Commerce Department would
be reorganized in the effort to
cut it's expenses Is per cent.
Naturally, employees Of the
Commerce Department are much
concerned over their jobs, and
are eagerly awaiting a possible
elaboration of information re-
garding the proposed reorganiza-
ton by Secretary Daniel c. Roper
tomorrow. Thus far, no definite
news has come forth as to his
plans.
It is understood, however, that
the department, which was Presi-
dent Hoover's pride, is not so
highly regarded by the new Ad-
ministration, and that it's actiVi-
ties will be considerably curtailed.
One feature of its Set-up that
has aroused considerable antag-
onism is the far-reaching foreign
activity Of the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce. The
officials of this organization
abroad, it is contended. not only
draw down fancy salaries but
duplicate in considerable meas
ure the work of the State De-
partment.
There are also current roper
cussions regarding the situation
of the Radio Commission and the
Power Commission, but the final
outcome. so far as these units
are concerned, is still up in the
air.

VATICAN CITY, March 13
G.N.S0.-Pope Plus XII nomi-
mated six new cardinals in the
secret Holy Year consistory TO-
day and afterwards delivered an
allocution in which he made spe-
cial reference to the economic
crisis and voiced disapproval OF
the orthodox baptism of Princess
Maria Luisa of Bulgaria.
Among the six new cardinals
nominated was Msgr. Villeneuve,
archbishop of Quebec.
The others were Monsignor
Fumasoni-Biondi, apostolic dele
gate to Washington; Angelo
Dolci, former papal nuncio to
Bucharest; Maurilio Fossah,
archbishop of Turin; Theodor
Innitzer, archbishop Of Vienna;
and Ella Dalla Costa, archbishop
of Florence.
AssaiIs Boris
In referring to the economic
crisis, the Pope deplored the
widespread unemployment.
Voicing sharp criticism Of King
Boris of Bulgaria for the ortho-
dox baptism of the little Prin,
cess, who was born in January,
the Pontiff declared:

the painful surprise we can
not help feeling at the bap-
tism of this royal infant by .

falls neither to our duty nor

Urges Prayer
Speaking of the economic at.
fairs of the world, the Pontitt
said:
Unemployment means great
anxiety for those responsible for
public order and security and
involves material anu moral Suf-
fering. for millions of working
men, deprived not merely Of
wages justly earned but also Of
work, and reduced to . state
containing many perilS and
temptations"
The critical international sit
uation is rendered uncertain by
reciprocal suspicious and exag-
gerated, unjust nationalism, the
Pontiff declared, in the new as
well as the old world. He said:
"The clash of fratricidal
strife is unfortunately heard,
while from the contaminated,
devastated earth the voice and
blood of brother rise to heaven"

NEW YORK, March 13 IN.S0
Now that the banking crisis is
beginning to lift, a half dozen
or so points stand out Of the
general confusion Of the last 10
days.
/. Real leadership has devel-
oped in Washington and Wall
Street.
2. The country will emerge
from the present difficulties
with a sound, unified banking
system.
3. The first real steps toward
economy in national govern
ment and a balanced budget
have been taken.
4. Unemployment is being
attacked aggressively on ma
tional scale for the first time.
5. The United States is being
placed on a gold bullion, rather
than a gold coinage, basis.
6. Controlled currency expan-
sion seems in prospect rather
than initiation.
Z. The final phase Of the
deflation of the last three and
. half years is being witnessed.
Leadership, Big Thing
The big thing has been the
leadership. Franklin D. Roosevelt
has brought it to national af
fairs, and here Winthrop W. Aid
rich, backed up by the Rocke
feller millions, is offering it to
Wall Street.
Both Washington and Wall
Street have been lacking in real
leadership for months. and in the
latter case it has actually been
q matter Of years.
There promises to be a battle
one Of the greatest in Wall Street
history-over leadership of the
financial district, for Aldrich's
views are diametrically opposed
to those of j. P. Morgan & Co.
that have persisted for more than
so years.
Under the Roosevelt banking
program, every bank opening in
the next few months will have
the Governments stamp of ap
proval. This will apply to banks
that open Immediately, and those
thot open later due to Treasury
Department delays in checking
assets and to needed reorganiza.
ton.
Turning Point Seen
The present should mark the
turning point. There are still
some large situations yet to be
cleaned up. One or two of these
may result in some "shocks," but
they will be more in the nature OF
anti ti-climaxeS.
One Of the situations is the rail
roads. Another is some of the
overcapitalized public utilities. In
both cases the security markets
already have discounted the news
If and when it comes. Bonds at
10, 20, and 80 cents on the dollar
tell the story.
The new bankruptcy bill, which
became a law just before the
banking news broke, will speed
the railroad and utility cleanup
It will permit speedy, inexpensive
reorganization.

sary to the ordinary conduct OF
business or of personal uses, Sec.
retary Of the Treasury Woodin
declared.
To guide the banks in their
conduct of business, Woodin is
sued a series Of regulations de-
signed to keep the banking bust
ness on an even keel and to pro-
tect the banks against runs or
any other conditions which made
the holiday necessary.
First Duty to People
The Secretary of the Treasury
said:
"The first duty of the banks
reOpening under license of the
Secretary of the Treasury for
the performance of their usual
functions is to see that the pri-
mary needs Of the people for
funds for the necessities Of life
and for normal business under
takingS are met.
Accordingly Withdrawals for
boarding have been prohibited
and the Secretary of the Treas
ury suggests that until more
normal conditions have been es-
tablished transfers of funds by
banks or their customers be
limited to necessary purposes"
Regulations issued by the Treas.
ury allow private banks, building
and loan associations in States
having no commonwealth super
vision, pawn brokers and auto
mobile and other financing insti-
tutions to open today under the
same restrictions as banks as re-
CARDS boarding, gold, and other
safeguards.
"Unusual'' Sums Barred
Banks may refuse to pay out
a large or unusual sum of cur
rency, by authority Of this regu-
lation:
''No banking institution shall
permit any withdrawal by any
person when such institution,
acting in good faith. shall deem
the withdrawal is intended for
boarding.
"Any banking institution, be-
fore permitting the withdrawal
OF large or unusual amounts of
currency. may require from the
person requesting such with
drawal. a full statement under
oath Of the purposes for which.
the currency is required"
President Roosevelt made
ringing plea to the country over
a national radio hookup last
night preceding today's reopen
ingS.
Roosevelt BegS Faith
He explained the steps the
Federal Government has taken
to protect depositors, and asked
for confidence. He said:
you people must have faith.
You must not be stampeded
by rumOrS and gueSSeS. We
have provided the machinery
to restore our financial syS-
tenn; it is up to you to support
il and make it work.
