MARYLAND BANK
HOLIDAY STARTS
Three-Day Closing Ordered,
to Stabilize Financial
StruCture.'
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press STAFF Correspondent

BALTIMORE. Feb. 25.-Mary-
lands 205 banking institutions and
the Baltimore Stock Exchange were
closed today as the state began a
three-day bank holiday, proclaimed
as a means of stabilizing a financial
structure endangered by a week of
heavy Withdrawals.
Baltimore, which contains half
the states population of approx
mately 100000, was outwardly
calm.
Stores and other business houses
were open as usual, while news
papers, in front page editorials en-
treated the public to take it easy
during the banking crisis.
The Baltimore Stock Exchange
was closed until further notice"
Harry Fahnestock, president of the
exchange, said the governors agreed
upon the closing only few minutes
before the scheduled time of re-
opening. All deliveries of stock
were suspended.
The holiday ordered by Governor
Albert G. Ritchie temporarily tied
up more than $500, 900, GOO, most of it
in Baltimore. 1t will continue at
least through next Tuesday, while
state legislature, now in session at
Annapolis, frames emergency bank
ing legislation.

Hull Pledges T. S. Aid for World Peace;
Pleads for International Good Faith

This nation henceforth must
play its full part in effecting the
normal restoration of national eco
nomic relationships, and in world
commercial rehabilitation from
which alone business recovery in
satisfactory measure can be hoped
for" He added that in all this
the war debts owed the United
States are but single factor.
Senator Hull's is the first formal
statement from President Elect
Franklin D. Roosevelt's official fam
lily. 1t is the first statement on
broad foreign policy yet made by the
incoming administration. Accord
ingly, it was eagerly. if not anx-
iously awaited in foreign diplomat
ic circles.
BY coincidence, or otherwise, 1t
came on the very day Japan for
mally broke with the League or
Nations and virtually told the
world that, come what may, she will
never give up Manchuria, and THAI
further advances into China are to
be expected.
BY vote AZ to 1, the league as
sembly had voted against Japan,
and the next step will largely de-
pend upon the attitude of the Roose-
velt administration.

vision as the one grand cure-al for
what ailS the world.
He clearly intimated that many
other things are the matter, and
that unless these are Strengthened
out too, mere clearing up the debt
situation will have little effect.
That the war debts owed this
government are but one factor" he
said, will not be controverted.
"All persons must recognize" he
said at the outset, that demorali-
cation and chaos, including the
complete dislocation of the economic
relationship of nations, characterize
many vital phases of political and
economic affairs everywhere.
There has been, too, a general
letting down since the war of moral
and political standards by both
peoples and governments. There
should be no laxity on the part of
this or any other nation in the OBJ
servsnce of both the letter and spirit
of treaties and of international good
faith.
There should be sane and real
istic international cooperation,
keeping in mind our traditions and
our constitution, to aid in pre-
serving the peace of the world.

The residents of the most beautiful

OXYGEN USED
IN EFFORT TO
Save CERMAK
Seek to Stimulate Failing
Heart; Blood TRANSMISSION
Is Arranged.
By United Press

By United Press
MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 25.-Mayor An
ton j. Cermak of Chicago was
placed under an oxygen tent at
noon today, in an attempt to stimu-
late his failing heat action.
The cumbersome apparatus, with
funnel-like canvas cover and ising
glass window, was called into action
after a consultation of the six ply
sicians now attempting to build up
the mayors resistance to Giuseppi
Zangaras poStol shot.
The valves were turned on at
once, and the oxygen, it was hoped,
would relieve the mayors rapidly
firing lungs and heart.
Mayor Cermak will be given blood
transfusions this afternoon, DR..
Frederick Tice, Chicago specialist,
said shortly afternoon.
Doctors Cling to Hope
DR.. Tice said that a donor had
been found and that DR.. j. w.
Snyder would supervise the trans
fusion.
DR.. Tice also said as he came
from the sick room that he had
far from given up hope that the
mayor might pull through. He is
responding fine from the oxygen
treatment
DR.. Frank Jirka, son-in-law of
Cermak and one of his staff of
doctors, said the mayors eyes looked
better this morning despite a some
what restless night, and added:
DO you know what my honest
opinion is? I believe he absolutely
is going to sail along now. He has
a good chance"
DR.. E. S. Nichol had said an hour
earlier, after long examination,
that he feared che mayor had little
chance. He added that he might
be too pessimiStic.
Mind Remains Sharp
DR.. Jirka and Alderman James B.
Bowler of Chicago, who is in con-
slant attendance, said Cermak' s
mind remained sharp.
That's the trouble, his mind is
too active" Bowler said, and DR..
Jirka commented that as he con-
versed in whispers with nurse,
Cermak asked what he was saying.
Cermak has lost about ten pounds
since he was wounded by a bullet
intended for President Elect Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, his doctors said
His only nourishment in the last
few days has been obtained by glu-
cose solution injections. A heart
stimulant also is being administered.

against the background of blazing

diplomats here attach unusual i'm
portance to the first public state

state, Senator Cordell Hull.
Leaving his sick bed to meet the

the faithful observance of treaties
and OF international good faith and
to promise American cooperation
in the pre- ~rvation of world peace.
This policy" he declares, lis

principal foreign policies in the
years to come. he said, will be de-

would include our own commerce at
home, and its aid in maintaining
world peace under the fundamental
policy of right and justice"
AS to the war debts, the incoming
secretary of state made it perfectly
plain that the Roosevelt admins

GIVEN 10 YEARS
Five Years Added by Dis
play of Temper, Threats
of 1Revenge.'

Threats alleged to have been
made while en- route to prison and
an antagonistic attitude displayed
in federal court today caused SEN
tence of Claude Smith, Cincinnati,
to be increased five years on a mar
cotic charge.
AS result of alleged attempts to
signal to Smith in court, two
other men were arrested and held

charges on orders of District Attor-
ney George R. Jeffrey.
Smith, branded as the dope
king of Cincinnati" was sentenced
to serve five years in prison last
Saturday by Federal Judge Robert
c. Baltzell, when he pleaded guilty
to receiving heroin concealed under
postage stamps while in Jail on an
other charge.
Later Baltzell learned that while
Smith was being taken from the
courtroom to jail here he threatened
revenge on government agents.
Baltzell ordered him returned today
and instructed narcotic agents to
investigate his activities further.
After hearing evidence today, Bait

FALL FATAL TO
AGED WOMAN
Resident of City for Half
Century Strikes Head
on Stove.

Falling from chair when
stricken with paralysis Thursday
night in her home at 6501 North
California street, Miss Mary Dowl-
ing, 81, resident of the city for
more than half a century, was in
jured fatally when her head struck
stove. She died today at st. Vim
cents hospital.
The injured woman apparently
had lain for hours in an uncon-
scious condition before she was
found Friday by neighbors. Miss
Bowling, for years a SeamStress for
the L. S. Ayres & Co, lived alone
Police at first believed the aged
woman may have been victim of
robbers, but investigation disclosed
none of her possessions had been
disturbed.
The tragedy first was discovered
by Mrs. Fred Shert, $40 West North
street, friend, who opened transom
of a door and saw the body of Miss
Bowling on the floor.
Autopsy performed by DR.. John
Salt, deputy coroner, showed the
woman suffered skull fracture in
the fall. Neighbors said they be-
lieved Miss Bowling was stricken

Bowling came to Indianapolis with
her parents when a child. For years
the family resided on the south side,

Chester Perkins, S. Bend
Member Resigns Senate
Berth; Ldshes Cur Rule
Legislator Quits Post at
End of Fiery Address,
Playing Mob Spirit.

Charging the Indiana senate is
"gravitating to mob" Senator
Chester A. Perkins Dem, South
Bend, opponent of the administra-
tons steam roller, today resigned
his post in the legislature, in tense
and dramatic scene.
His voice quivering with emotion,
Perkins hurled his defiance to the
entire upper house, declaring that
the mob is a monster I never
could abide"
The silence of the senators was
unbroken as Perkins pleaded that
he did not want to see democracy
die"
The only response to Perkins, who
previously had accused the senate
of being bought" in the fight over
the reorganization bill, came from
Senator Anderson Ketchum, Demo-
cratic floor leader, at the close of
Perkins TRADE.
"TaTa," Says Ketchum
From his presiding officers chair,
Ketchum said:
''Ta-ta
Perkins seemed to be laboring I'M
der an emotional strain as he first
said goodbye to the senators and
then turned toward the press table
with:
Goodbye, boys"
With Ketchum's "ta-ta" in his
ears, the senator from northern In
diana strobe down the senate aisle
and out of the statehouse. He mad
ended career that began when
the Democratic party, shortly after
the World war, struggled to gain a
foothold against the Republican
forces, dominated by Klanism and
the Watsonian type of politics.
Perkins, as chairman of the rules
committee, has been in the public
eye since the session opened, first
because of his opposition to the
steam roller tactics of the admin
istration, and, second, because of
his insistence that senate rules be
followed rather than ignored.
Statement Is Issued
His statement, in part, follows:
MY power to control myself is
tested to the breaking point when
I see justice outraged and right
ground so ruthlessly into the dust
I feel myself being overcome by
desperation and loss of self control
The future does not look good to
me.
1T appears to me as though we
are gravitating to mob. The mob
is a monster I never could abide
1 detest the whole CT 1t as a case
of ignorance, presumption, malice
and brutality which must pay its
own penalty.
Il have fought lone fight. You
have borne me down ruthlessly. You
have scorned me, jeered me, ano
defeated me. You have power tc
do that, not the right. I have the
power to be scorned, jeered, and de-
feated here, but I have the right
not to be so treated. So I will stay
no longer.
Il would do anything for you as
individuals but, collectively, I am
against you. 1 hate the forces you
represent. I always shall oppose
them to the utmost of my ability.
Therefore, while reason yet 6
ems me, let me retire. AS repe-
sentative of opposing forces, let us
part as enemies. AS individual fell
low citizens of a great state, let us
part as friends"
