HIS PROBATION
ALL TOO BRIEF

George Arone, 81, of the Mans

day that he is a much-wanted
man.
His presence is sought not only
in washington, but in Baltimore
and Atlantic City, N. j., because
he is alleged to have signed the
wrong name to checks.
Arone thought his troubles were
over yesterday when Judge Gus
A. Schuldt in Police Court re-
leased him on probation from
Gallinger Hospital.
Immediately following his re-
lease yesterday he was retaken
on a charge of false pretenses. 1t
was also discovered that he is a

The salaries of Leroy A. Hal

McCarl held the increases con-

ordered Halbert and his employees
to return the increases they re-
ceived last week.
The investigation by the Fed

Administrator Harry L. Hopkins,
when he learned part of the pay
increases were to come from Fed

angered by the District Commls-
sioners approving the increases

HERE SINCE.
JULY |
NRA Check Shows 733 More
Will Soon Get Jobs; $1,000
Total Now in D. C. Trades

Estimates of the number OF per-
sons put back to work in WASH;
ington since July l crept upward
to $4,000 today as additional re-
ports from local employers were
received in the checkup OF re-
employment here being made by
District NRA forces.
To date, 1877 local business
firms have reported that they en-
ployed 23,310 people on July l.
and have added 4,130 since then
and will shortly hire 733 more.
Using these figures as basis,
NRA officials have estimated that
employment has now increased to
$4,000 persons in those trades
which can come under the Blue
Eagle, as compared with $4,000
persons at work on July l.
This is an increase OF about
% per cent in the space of only
three months.
The normal number of workers
in trades to which the Blue
Eagle can apply is about $4,000.
Accuracy of the estimates is
claimed by local NRA officials
because of the fact that the
firms that have already reported
in the unemployment survey rep
resented on July l, over one

BANK
NEARLY READY
To REOPEN
Treasury Speeds Up Case;
Plan Calls for Payment, in
Part, to. Many Depositors

The local banking situation as
it concerns closed institutions be-
gan to clear today with the an
nouncement at the Treasury that
considerable progress has been
made in a plan to reopen the
Franklin National Bank.
This announcement, following
the approval yesterday of a
plan whereby the Mt. Vernon
Savings Bank will release nearly
$1,0O0,0O0 in frozen deposits
through a sale of assets to the
Washington Mechanics and Sav-
ings Bank, will leave but few
other closed banks in the city.
Shuman'S Big Job
So far has the work of reorgan-
ization progressed, that Maj. w.
Irving Shuman, special represen-
tative of the Comptroller, who has
engineered both the Hamilton
merger, the Chevy Case sale and
the Mt. Vernon bank agreement,
in connection with his task of re-
organizing closed local banks, has
resigned to join the new Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Of the Franklin reopening plan
it was understood that it contem-
plates the payment of a substan-
tial per cent of depositors' ac-
counts with payment in full to
come.
Cooper Case Halted
Only the United States Savings
Bank, of which Col. Wade H
Cooper is president, and the In
dustrial Savings Bank, colored
institution, will remain closed
after the Franklin plan is finally
approved. The Treasury has al.
ready stated publicly that before
January /, all banks will either
be reopened through some plan
or placed in receivership.
Colonel Cooper today in Dis
trict Supreme Court was tenn
porarily halted in his effort to
force the Treasury approval of
his plan when his suit was post

ZONERS LISTEN
TOC|V|CGR0UP

The Zoning Commission today
received a group of citizens who
asked that the site Of a proposed
apartment house be reZoned so as
to prevent alteration of the build
ing after it is constructed, or its
replacement if it is demolished.
The property in question is
bounded by Sixth, Seventh and
Nicholson Streets N. w. and a
publicly owned area north of Con-
cord Avenue, through which the
projected Fort Drive will pass.
The owner of the property,
Israel Diamond, already has filed
application for a building permit
for the apartment and rezoning
of the property now would not
prohibit its construction. How
ever, such action would prohibit
altering the building, and when
the structure is demolished it
could be replaced only with de-
tached or semi-detached dwell
ings. The petition for the recon-
ing was presented by delegation
from the BrightWood Citizens
