u. S. Workers Ban
Strikes, Picketing,
Despite Protest
By q stan Correspondent of The Star.

By Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
NEW YORK, September 12.-Over
the vigorous protest of a minority
group led by John L. Donovan, presi-
dent of N. r. A. Lodge, the American
Federation Of Government Employees
today adopted constitutional amend
ment barring strikes and picketing.
The convention went into executive
session to consider the proposal,
which had its origin in the picketing
resorted to by sympathizers of Dom
ovan while he was out Of service on
the Labor Advisory Board after q
clash with Hugh 8. johnson.
The Donovan faction also lost an
other fight when second amendment
was adopted limiting the size of griev-
ance committees to five members.
This was in line with President Bab-
cocks argument before the convention
against exhibitions of physical
strength" in presenting complaints.
Donovan headed a group of IS when
he was dismissed by johnson.

Seventh Street Savings Re-
ceiver Begins Action in
Supreme Court.
SHAREHOLDERS FACING
100 PCT. ASSESSMENT
Ida L. Berling, Named in Com
plant, One of 1923 Involv.
ing 100000.

In order to test the right of the
controller Of the currency and his re-
ceiver to collect a 100 per cent assess
holders of the insolvent Seventh Street
Savings Bank, suit was filed in Dis
trict Supreme Court today by the re-
ceiver, Norman r. Hamilton, seeking
to collect from Ida L. Bergling, 1885
Kearney street northeast, an assess
ment of $4,000 on her 20 shares of
stock.
Through his attorneys, Angus w.
Mclean and Charles E. Wainwright,
the receiver contended he is authorized
to collect the assessment both by the
powers Of Federal law and the law of
West Virginia, where the bank re-
ceived its charter. The defendant will
be represented by william E. Rich
ardson.
Banks History Reviewed.
The declaration in the receivers suit
to recover the $4,000 outlines the
story Of the Seventh Street Savings
Bank. It was organized under a
charter of July 2, 1912, closed during
the bank holiday in March, 1888, re-
fused a license to reopen and later
declared insolvent December 81, 1898
The best assets of the Seventh Street
Savings Bank were sold to the Ham,
ilton National Bank, which declared
and paid dividend of SO per cent
to creditors.
When the bank was refused license
to reopen, a conservator was placed In
charge, but this conservator was
changed to a receiver, and later il
was determined by the controller, the
declaration points out, that the as
sessment be levied against all share
holders, due August Is. Demand had
been made of all shareholders for theil
assessment, it was declared, and In
the case of the defendant, Bergling
payment had been refused.
Payment Of the $4,000 is asked, with
interest at 6 per cent, from the due
date of August 13.
Refers 10 Both Regulations.
The receivers declaration refers
both to Federal law, claimed to give
the controller complete Jurisdiction
| over the institution, and the West Vir-
ginia law; seonoarning liability OF
stockholders.
The Seventh Street Savings Bank,
It is explained, after being organized
in West Virginia, opened for business
at 1916 Seventh street, and did nc
business anywhere else.
The West Virginia law on liability
Of shareholders declares each stock
holder Of any banking institution, or
ganized under the laws Of this State,
in addition to the liability imposed
upon him as a stockholder of a cor
poration under the provisions of ar
ticle l of this chapter. shall be liable
to the creditors of the banking insti-
tutions on obligations accruing while
he is a shareholder, to an amount
equal to the par value of the shares
of stock held by him; and no sale or
transfer Of the shares of stock made by
any such stockholder, after the liabil-
ity Of the banking institution origin
ated or accrued, shall relieve the stock
holder from the liability of stockhold-
ers imposed by this section, may be
prosecuted severally against any one
stockholder or jointly against any
number Of stockholders"

Attendance at Church h e s Large in Northwest Says
 Lutheran Pastor

After a stay of slightly over two months in the Pacific Northwest, the Rev. Erling K Olafson, Pastor of the Resurrection Lu ther n Church, and Mrs. Olafson returned | to Juneau on the Princess Char lotte
 Shortly after their arrival in the south, the Rev, and Mrs. Olaf son attended the Pacific Synod of the United Lutheran Church which took place in Bellingham, Wash ington, the latter part of May. The Synod, which was attended by representatives from the entire Pa cific Northwest district, was most interesting and many splendid talks were heard, the Rev. Olafson said.
 Following the Synod, they spent some time in Point Roberts, Wash- Ington, and visited Mrs. Olafson's family in Blaine, Washington, for about one month. 9er
 Religious Interest Keen
 While they were south the Rev. Olafson delivered sermons in a number of places they visited and attended services in every city or community they stopped in. It was most encouraging and not 8 little surprising to see the tremend- ous interest that is being taken in religion. Atendances were large at every church in which heard services. Interest was particularly keen in the Oxford Group of mis- sionaries, a non d e nominational group which were holding meetings throughout the Northwest. I at- tended group meeting in Bell lingham and was more impressed by their outlook and the work they are doing than in any other re- ligious movement I encountered while south,' Rev. Olafson de- clared. He plans to deliver a series of explanatory sermons on the Ox- ford Group during the next month.
 A considerable part of the time they were south was pent by both the Rev. Olafson and Mrs. Olafson under the care of physicians and both have returned here feeling much improved in health. lsl- The Rev. Olafson and Mrs. Olaf son encountered several former Ju- neauites while they were away in, cluding the Rev. Harry Allan, formerly pastor of the Lutheran Church here and now located $ in Seattle; the Rev. o. C.. Saunders, in charge of the Northern Light Presbyterian Church here until 1882, now living near Spokane, Washington, and the Rev. G. E. James, formerly with the Metro politan Methodist Church of Ju- neau, who is now in Blaine, Wash ington. The Rev. Allan and the Rev. Saunders were seen in Seattle and the Rev. James at his home in Blaine. All sent regards to their many friends in Juneau and with out exception said that while they missed Juneau they were happily located in their work at present.
