BANKERS At
INQUIRY
Cites Hoover Philosophy That
Public Is to Be Exploited
As Cause of Crash

DETROIT, Aug. % GN.SJ.
The philosophy that bank de-
positors are lambs to be shown"
"a philosophy which descended
from Adam Smith and John
Stuart Mill down to the Honor
able Herbert Hoover" was re-
sponsible for the nations bank
crash of last February.
This was the statement put
into the record of Judge Harry B.
Keidan's one-man grand jury hear
ing today by the Rev. Charles E.
Coughlin, radio pastor" of De-
troit.
Quotes Hoover Articles
Father Coughlin produced a
copy of an article he said was
written by Mr.. Hoover for the
Salisbury Press, of London, Eng
land, in May, 1912. He said:
"The article attempts to
show the philosophy of why the
bankers were protected against
the common people. 1t was
written by Herbert Hoover,
then a voting resident of En-
gland. but not a citizen. 1t
shows the attitude of the pro-
mOter toward the promoted.
"The article states there are
three ways in which money is
expended to float a mining
project; for equipment and
property, $5OO,OOO; salaries,
$25,OOO; for brokers, jObbers
and others, $4,000. That makes
a total expenditure of 100000.
The mine is then capitalized at
$5,OOO,OOO. The last invest
ment, the S5,OOO,OOO, was ex-
pended by the promoter.
"If the venture was a failure,
I quote:
OUTSIDERS IDIOTS"
at is quite possible that the
$4,4OO,OOO is not a loss. If
capitalized at S5,OOO,O 900 and the
shares sold at $4,4OO, 900, the
wealth is transferred from one
person to another. Insiders can
invest it better than idiots, the
outsiders who parted with it!'"
Q.-"Didn't he mean that the
one group could make wiser in
veStments with the money than
the other grOup?"
Ale meant the outsiders
exist for the benefit of the in
Siders."
Q.-"With reference to the
100000 was that specific
mine?"
At was any mine. Cap
italize it at $5,OOO,OOO, let it fail,
then pocket the money"
Father Coughlin's voice rose as
he said:
II am not trying to damn
Mr.. Hoover. 1 am trying to
exculpate the man. am
damning his philosophy. This
expression was the result of the
philosophy of exploiting the
poor, making them starve in a
country that was ever flowing
with plenty.'
Lets get together and put
across the new deal and see
that there is no division of
wealth on any Socialistic or
communist plan but in the
ChriSt-like manner. Until we
get a new philosophy instead
Of this paganism there is moth
ing but chaos ahead"

The wind here reached a We

With the barmoeter dropping

Weather Bureau officials said
that the wind might grow
stronger as the center of the
storm approached.
At North Beach, Chesapeake

night to repair the havoc of the
storm.
Linemen Work in Storm
Telephone crews were working
valiently to repair the fallen lines,
but their work was hampered as
the storm continued and more
were brought down by fallen
trees and limbs.
Country roads in Maryland and
Virginia were rendered impossible
by the heavy rains.
It was feared that if the rain
continues a number of bridges
will be washed out.

ORIGINAL KEY
 HOUSE PROBLEM
Colonel F. s. Key Will Not Consent to Call Building
 the Original

Washington - (UP) - How to restore an ancient structure which has only the foundation and two walls remaining is the problem facing the national capital park and planning commission.
 The project under consideration is the restoration of the Francis Scott Key house, one-time home of the man who wrote the "Star- Spangled Banner" located in the historic Georgetown section of Washington.
 As far as the commission is concerned. plans are prepared and work will begin as soon as funds can be obtained. But a snag has appeared in the person of Lieut., grandson. of the War of 1872 pat riot.
 Colonel Key, who more than a quarter of century ago origi- mated an unsuccessful movement to restore the house. says that the only parts of the present structure which are original are the east and south walls and the founda- tion. And. he says, he never will consent to calling the building a restoration. If the sponsors of the plan will call a "reprOdMction of the original" then that will be all right. otherwise, no.
 Contractors, who remodeled the Georgetown home 20 years ago, disagree with Key. They say that much of the material in the build- ing is original. They do admit, however, to having removed a great deal of the house and to having used new parts as replace ments.
 Which is right, and what to do about it. is up to the commission to decide, inasmuch as they are the owners of the house. e--.

Nevada Led Nation in
 Prohibition Enforcement

Carson City, Nev. (UP)-Neva- da, despite its reputation for ignor- ing tho prohibition law, leads the nation in prohibition enforcement, statistics compiled by Federal Judge Frank Norcross, show.
 Ninety per cent of the arrests underline prohibition law resulted in convictions.
 Records show Nevada from 100 per cent to 1000 per cent higher in it's per capital liquor law en- ,forcement than the remainder of the country.
 During the year ended June 31, 1882, the federal government col lected approximately $5,00O,OO0 in prohibition fines. But if the entire nation had paid fines in proportion to those. assessed in Nevada, the figure would have been ,$35, 900, 900, Judge Norcross said.
 The most startling comparison came in the study of abatements.
 Onsa per capital basis, Nevada's records of federal padlocking is 1,200 per cent above the nations average.
