New Message of
 the President
(Continued from Page D

There is, however. an obligation upon us to insist that every issue of new securities to be sold in in- terstate commerce shall be accom- panied by full publicity and infor- nation, and that no essentially im- portant element attending the issue shall be concealed from the buying public.
 This proposal adds to the ancient rule of caveat ennptor. the further doctrine "let the seller also be- ware" It puts the burden of telling the whole truth on the seller. It should give impetus to honest deal- ing in securities and thereby bring back public confidence.
 Tho purpose of tho legislation l suggest is to protect the public with tho least possible interference to honest business.
 This is but one step in our broad purpose of protecting investors and depositors. It should be followed by legislation relating to the better su. pervision of the purchase and salo of all property dealt in on ex- changes, and by legislation to cor- rect unethica1 and unsafe practices on the part of officers and direct ors of banks an dotEer corpora tions.
 What we seek is a return to a clearer understanding of the an- clent truth that those who manage banks. corporations and other agencies handling or using other peoples money are trustees acting for others.
 FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT.

 Message

Sydney. N. s., March 29.--(UP) +-John MarteIl, lighthouse keeper Flashed dramatic message to shore early to-day, over the mile and q half of grinding ice that Fills the narrow channel between Flint Island and Cape Breton, that one of his children was dead.
 For more than week, while ice- breakers strovc to crash their way to the storm wrecked lighthouse where Martell, his wife and their nine children have been marooned watchers on shore have known that tragedy had come to the isolated 4sIand.
 A flag. flying at half mast, could be seen thruogh occasional rifts in the fog. Through spy glasses, rela- tives of the lighthouse keeper could zee his sons walk from the house 10 the shore, inspect q small boat caught in the ice jam, and return to their home.
 A biinding blizzard shut the island from view two days ago This was followed by a dense fog The ice breaker Montcalm plunged through heavy floes to within q
 
 to turn back after three courageous attempts.
 Gordon and Howard Peach 1ephews of Martell, maintained q vigil on the mainland, sweeping the island with binoculars. N Marteli knew no telegraphic code whereby he might flash word oi his distress. Through 50 hours oi Anxiety q small radio get at Port Worien repeated instructions for 6 crude signal system of lights that he might use. MartelPs little ra. fdio finally picked up the instruc- lions, and yesterday, the first re- Hponse came through.
 Watchers on shore disagreed depending on their point of want age, whether Martell signalled with 431ree flashes--which would have meant sickness in the family-or Two flashes, meaning death. TheiI Speculation was ended shortly aftei 1nidnight to-day, when the fof lifting, the signals came through AclearIy.
 ss Marteif flashed the fatal number "two", three times, showing under the arranged code that one of the sGhildren had died.

 In Army Of 250, 900
Applications Come From Many Sources, Including Broken Businessmen and PenniIess Cefgymen Com Can Put 1000 Men to Work If It Gets Funds

The jobless relief plan is de- signed to provide work for a quar- ter of q million men in the national forests or on other federal projects. with sufficient pay to maintain their dependents. It Is one unit in e program which includes creation of a $500. 100000 fund for direct distress relief in the state. Debate on the latter measure will begin in the senate today or tomorrow.
 Tn reforestration bill comes be- fore the house at noon with the ways cleared and greased for speedy passage.
 Yesterday 1t swept through the senate in record time without the formality of a roll call vote. House opposition will be no more substan- tial. Leaders predicted that before adjournment tonight 1t will be written into the statutes of the United States = the fourth major step in the presidents plan for economic recovery.
 A compromise eliminating the mandatory and much-disputed $1- a-day wage destroyed most of the once substantial opposition. It took the sting out of the assaults of the American Federation of Labor, which maintained the wage scale would destroy free labor and chorused "Hitlerism" at the provis- ion for enlistment and discipline.
 Hartford, Conn, March 29-(U P)-If funds are made available by the federal government more than 2.000 men can be put to work immediately on reforestation work in Connecticut, Austin r. Hawes state forester, said today.

It is his earnest conviction that betting on horse races outside the state now 1s en- gagged in promitcuously with the state not deriving one cent of rev. enue from the same. He there- fore believes that it is time Con- necticut availed itself of an op- portunlty to increase it's revenue | by legitimate means. such as the pari-mutuel system of betting pro- vides.

 How did you feel when the plane came down, MT Shaw?"

It is expected that Mayor Frank Hayes and other Waterbury of- ficials will appear before the Ju- dietary committee to argue for the bill. The attitude of the local officials is that the position is un- necessary and only adds to the an- nual expense of the taxpayers of Waterbury. However, 1t was learned on good authority to-day that the judiciary committee will not return a favorable report on the measure and hence permit Wa terbury to fight over the three prosecutorships and decide them any way local political leaders see fit.
 Republican Town Chairman Theobold b. Conway of Waterbury was in conference with House and senate republicans in Hartford to- day and 1t was hinted that his visit was purely in the interest of the third prosecutorship wrangle, now threatening to split the repub- lican party of Waterbury into three distinct camps.

Receiver for Two
 Local Banks
(Continued from Page 1)

sanditz & Traurig Bank expenses during that period amount to $14,- 407.65. Expenses in the Kazemekas Bank receivership amount to &24,. 194.44, the reports shows. Total cash received by the receiver in the Sanditz 6 Traurig receivership amounted to $40,988.40, of which approximately $15,000 was paid out to depositors in 10 per cent dividend. About $8,000 remains on hand according to tho monthly rec port for February. Cash received in the Kazemekas & Co. Bank dur ing the receivership amounted to $48,537.61. No dividend has been paid as yet. The receiver, accord. ing to the February report has ap- proximately $22,000 on hand.
 An unusual fact in both receiv- erships is that the cost of main- taining the property accounts tn- cluded as assets, amounts to more than half the total expenses. In the Kazemekas case, the cost of maintaining the property is given as $15,731.99. The cost In the San. ditz & Traurig account of maintain- ing the properties included among the assets of the closed bank Is klVeH db &tpUor.oV.
 The reason for the large cost is seen in the amounts paid the City of Waterbury for taxes. In the sanditz & Traurig case. the re- ceiver paid out $3,533.73 in taxes and water rents. Tn the Kazene. kas & Go. case, the receiver paid out $9.061.14 in taxes and water rent.
 Other items under maintenanc0 of property which were paid in. clude telephone, light and power. insurance, repairs, plumbing ans cleaning, fuel, janitor service, cost of rent collecting and interest to first mortgages.
 Salaries paid out in the Kazemea kas & Co. case amounted to $1,1e0s Tn the Sanditz G Traurig case, $730. Appraisers fees for appraising ass sets in both closed banks amounts ed to $2,060. Legal expenses iA both cases amounted to $4,008.39, This item included the fees paiA to Attorney l. Russell Carter, colin- sel for the receiver, amounting to $3,000, as authorized by superior court. Stationery and printing a. mounted to $57.75, in both cases. Advertising amounted to S117.91. Preferred claims of salaries due employees amounted to $385.
 Expenses of the Waterbury Ma. tional Bank including salaries of officers (part time) auditor, clerks (part timel stationery, supplies, expenses amounted to $5,550. Mis- cellaneous items amounted in both cases to $1S9.43.
 Another interesting account in the report is the amount paid to the state bank department for the cost of bank examination in Decem- Der of 1881. The receiver p0id out $161.63 for the work in the Rag emekas & Go. bank and 9S6S.14 in the Sanditz 6 Traurig hank. The three members of the bank dspart- ment spent about a weeks time in completing their examination.

1 ating under article seven Of the international convention" to pre-. vent the sending of matter regard cd as "against the interests of the country"
 Kurt Loewenthal, a German citi- zen, and member of the Interna- tional News Service stan in Ber- lin, was arrested Monday night, 1t was revealed today, in connection with what the government terms "atrocity propaganda" and has been held incommunicado since.
 Other members of the Interna- tional News Service bureau were to be questioned today.
 In Essen, home of the famous Krupp armament works, proprie- tors of Jewish department stores, closed their establishments hur- riedly, on orders of the Brown Shirts. Tn Wittenberg and the Province of Brandenburg, Hitler's storm troopers picketed Jewish shops and forced them to close. Boycotts of many chain stores were effective. All stores owned by Jewish proprietors were closed voluntarily closed during the morn- ing and found their places of busi- ness officially closed by the new dictator's storm troops when they sought to open them in the after- noon.
 Differences between the NaziS and the Steel Helmets in Bruns- wick appeared to be nearing an amicable agreement. The govern. ment lifted its ban against the War Veterans organization. The Steel Helmet organization announced that henceforth no applications from men adhering to socialistic principles would be accepted, and that applications for membership by followers of Karl Marx now pending would be ignored.
 Twelve hundred Steel Helmets arrested at Brunswick have been released, 1t was announced, but 1b0 leaders of the organization, iDclud- ing many anti-Hitlerites, remained in custody.
 Franz Seldete, leader of the Steel Helmets and Minister of Labor in lin last night.
 The German press continued It's defense of the governments de. termination to meet "unexampled mcnuaClLy OL WOTIu JeWTy cJ charging plots against the reich.
 "The stories of artocity," the Angrlff said, "are calculated to islander the German people in the eyes of the world. The Germans' forebearance is now ended. In the course of 8 national revolution. the German people have treated the Jews with exemplary consideration. It's thanks have been to see world Jewry organized for crimi- nal propaganda"
 we are q people," the Angriff continued, Accustomed not only to defending ourselves. but of taking the offensive. If German goods are boycotted abroad, we Germans know how to create 8 situation where no Jew will find employ ment, where nothing will be bought from Jews, where Jewish stores will be summed, and where Jewish newspapers will no longer be read"
 The German press received the news of American protests with some irony and an ostensible feel ing of "relief'' that attacks on the anti-Jewish policy were not more vigorous.
