The depositors would receive their

waiting months or years. as was
the case in the former method of
liquidation. This is not only a bene-
fit to the depositOrs, but il saves the

old former Tennessee insurance COM
missioner, on a charge OF stealing
s1O0.O of bonds from the insurance
department and fixed his punishment
at not more than 10 years imprison-
ment the maximum provided by
statute.
The verdict was reached in 26
minutes after a trial lasting nearly
seven weeks. Four ballots were taken.
Reece was summoned from a cor
ridor outside the court room, where
he had gone soon after the jury re-
tired. when the II middle-aged men
filed in to report.
jeff McCarn of defense counsel an
nounced that motion for a new
trial would be made and that 80 days
were allowed for this purpose The
defendant was released under his
original bond of 10000, pending the
making of a new bond today.

dean sat quietly with his counsel
when w. H. Cato, the foreman, read
the verdict finding him guilty. He

torneys, his brother, Lem L. Reece OF
Elizabethton, and Mrs. Lem Reece.
The jurors also departed for the
homes they left February Z.

mentS
The statutes provide an indetermi-
nate sentence of from to 10 years
for grand larceny, the jury fixing the
maximum penalty at any period be-
tween 3 and 10. Under the parole
system, however, person convicted
of grand larceny is eligible for parole
after serving the minimum time,
which, with time off for good be-
havior, is two years. But granting OF
a parole is within the discretion of
the parole board. which has author
ity to refuse one and require the
maximum sentence fixed by the jury
to be served

Shoreham Stars

The carioca, native dance Of
South America and more truly
characteristic of the land than the
tango and the rumba, is being pre-
sented on the terrace at the Shore
ham Hotel this week by two of it's
leading exponents in this country,
none other than Joyce Coles and
Jack ReeS, who have come to
Washington direct from two and
a half years on Broadway.
This team is presenting at the
Shoreham terrace another popu
lar Manhattan feature, a musical
comedy strut to the tune Of "You
Nasty Man." A classical waltz
number completes their routine.
The society dance favorites,
Hall and Salvador, who have
pleased Washington audiences so
well that they have been retained
another week at the Terrace, are
staging a new group Of their own
dance interpretations, and Miss
Eileen O'Connor, Americas young
est prima ballerina, recently fea-
tured in Student Prince" THE
Moon Rises" and Hold Your
Horses" is featured in two toe
dance numbers that are bringing
her increased applause each night

There is one exception to the
old saying, "You can't improve
on nature" and that exception is
the Lotus Restaurant, at Four

The Lotus has one Of the largest
and most modern refrigerated
cooling systems in the city OF
Washington. The temperature is
always comfortable, never too hot
or too cold, no matter how hot
it is outside.
And while we are on the sub
ject of nature, be sure to see this
weeks floor show. The Lotus
presents the Brittell Twins, a
clever little team coming direct
from Montreal, Canada, where they
broke all records in Anatole Fried
lands show, Fifty Million French
men," Their specialtieS are: Aero
batic high kick and a rhythm
tap dance. When you see them
you will agree, there can be no
improvement on nature, here.
Bill Strickland and his Capt.

their very clever and amusing

indication of being funnier and
more popular than any Of their
