BANKS HAL TED.
DIVIDENDS To
SHAREHOLDER .
By International News Service


Legal advice averted trouble
from a minor stockholder during
the complex merger Of the First
National Bank and the Peoples
Wayne County Bank Of Detroit,
the Senate Banking Committee
learned today.
Thomas G. Long, attorney for
the First National Bank, testified
he was called upon to draft a
carefully worded resolution passed
by the board of directors. 1t au-
thorized a one and one-half mil
lion dollar liquidation dividend,
but said it was not to be paid to
any shareholder.
It was to be used to make up
debts incurred in buying 10 Michi-
gan banks, according to the evi-
dence.
FOreStalled Legal Action
Long was summoned to word the
resolution to forestall legal action
by the stockholder.
Ferdinand Pecora, committee
counsel, tried to establish the
point that the Detroit Bankers
Company, the largest banking or
ganization in Michigan, owned all
the stock in the First National,
but the one share held by the
dissenting stockholder.
However, the witness said he
did not know whether that con-
dition existed when the resolu-
ton was drawn.

CHAMBER
CONSIDERING
INCOME TAX
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
In a final effort to modify the
soak business" provisions Of the
270-million-dollar income tax bill
drafted by the House Ways and
Means Investigating Committee,
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morgenthau today held a confer
ence with the committee behind
closed doors.
While the House committee was
ready to yield on some of the in
come tax revisions proposed in
addition to closing loopholeS
through which the wealthy have
avoided taxes, some members in
sisted on the drastic program.
The Democratic majority on the
committee had tentatively agreed
to make some concessions to the
Treasury. Modification of the
proposal to reduce arbitrarily de-
probation allowances IS per cent
and continue consolidated returns
was tentatively approved.
Under the latter plan, however,
the committee would increase the
penalty for consolidated returns
to 2 per cent.
The Treasury was insistent
upon a requirement that single
tax returns be required for hus-
bands and wives, which the Treas
ury estimates would yield forty
millions additional revenue a year.
Before a final decision is
reached a showdown will be forced
upon the amendment of Represen-
tative Crowther (R.) Of New
York for a 2 per cent manufac-
turers' excise tax to yield $50 to
400 millions,

The amber lights which out

Pete Macias' music continues to

Miss Pennington will be remem-

to help him make a success Of
it.
The girl had none Of the
characteristics Of a golddigger,
even from the first. At times
she protested because she felt
that jerome was spending his
money too freely. When that
happened, the man laughed
heartily and flourished the
bankroll again.
Whats q few dollars" he
demanded. Ito a man like me?
If it's gonna make you like me,
I don't care how much spend.
You do like me some, don't you,
Mary?"
She confessed willingly that
she did.
Jerome felt sure that she
meant what she said, and at the
end of the second week, he was
all set for the proposal. Mary
had encouraged him in many
little ways, and when she con-
Sented to have supper in his
hotel suite, he knew that his
opportunity had come.
While they were alone, he
wouHd ask her to marry him.
Perhaps he would tell her the
truth. Tell her that he wasn't
rich, not a man of means, but
a poor plodder who loved her
and wanted her to share his
life's dream. If she really loved
him, it wouldn't matter.
Before the dinner was served,
Mary persuaded Jerome to have
a drink. And for a man to
whom liquor had never been
anything but the subject of a
temperance lecture, he did a
fairly good job on it.
Jerome never did taste that
dinner. He felt himself grow
ing extremely drowsy, and a
moment later, he was COM
pletely out of the picture.
When he awoke a short time
later, dizzy and with a roaring
h d a e, Mary was gone.
Gone, too, was Jeromes wallet
containing every cent he owned
in the world.
1t is needless to describe the
mans feelings. The shock
of disilluSionment was tough
enough, but there was the
added knowledge that he had
nothing now. No security for
the future, no farm, no free
dom. He would have to go
back to the despised job and
start all over again.
Tough, very, very tough.
Mary was many miles away
by that time. She was on a
train heading West, holding
the hand of sickly youth who
sat beside her.
II would have done any
thing. Eddie" she told him, Ito
get you out where you'd have
a chance to get well. Any
thing, even to lifting a guys
roll. I don't even feel like I
done wrong, doing that.
IF he was some poor dope
that needed the dough, I never
would have been able to do it.
But a big spender like him,
flashing a roll that'd choke an
elephant every time seen him
I knew he'd never miss a few
thousand bucks
