BILL LMAYPROH|B|T
CREDIT TO SOV|ETS
Johnson Measure Would
Make Claims Agreement
Necessary.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
No credits will be extended to Soviet
Russia through the export-import
bank If the johnson bill becomes a
law, until debt and claims funding
agreement has been negotiated be-
tween the United States and Russia
and approved by President Roosevelt
High officials here fully concur in
that Interpretation placed on the
johnson bill by William c. Bullitt
American Ambassador to Russia.
The debt and claims funding agree
ment. now under discussion between
Alexander Troyanovsky and State De-
paTtment officials, is to arrange for
payment on approximately s325.OOO,-
600 in claims of the United States
Government and American citizens
and corporations.
Of the total. Sl87 900 900 is a direct
government obligation for loans made
the short-lived Kerensky provisional
government in 1917. before that re-
gime was overthrown by the bolshe-
visits.
The negotiations have been in prog
resS since recognition Of the Soviets
by President Roosevelt A definite
settlement is expected soon by officials
The exportimport hank was or
ganized to promote trade with Soviet
Russia through extending credits to
American manufacturers and ex-
porterS.
The Johnson bill, now before the
House, after Senate passage, would
prohibit the granting Of any credits
to any nation defaulting in debts
owed the United States Government.
Soviet Russia does not regard itself
as in default to the United States, as
the bolshevists, upon assuming power,
specifically diSavowed the obligations
of the Czarist, Kerensky and other
preceding governments.
The State Department holds to the
contrary, and considers the Soviets,
as the successor Of other Russian
governments. obligated for the debts
of those governments.
Under that policy. it had been
definitely decided not to make any
distinction between Russia and other
defaulting nations.

PROPOSED BOILER LAW
PROVISIONS PROTESTED
Property Owners Claim License
Fees in Certain Cases Would
Be Increased.

Vigorous protests against some pro-
visions of the proposed new boiler
inspection law were placed before the
District Commissioners yesterday by a
delegation from the Building Owners
and Managers Association, represent
ing owners of a large amount of
Washington real estate.
The delegation. headed by James
Med. Shea, protested that the pro-
posed new law, as it now stands, would
cause a considerable increase in
license fees in cases of inspections of
certain classes and protested that in
the cases of apartment houses inspec-
tions should be made free of charge
because of the provision of law
passed two years ago requiring the
licensing of all apartment houses, the
fees in such cases running up to SIS
annually.
The group declared that in cases of
certain kinds of boilers, the fees would
be doubled and if inspections were
made on Sundays or holidays the fee
would be four times the present rate.

SHORE CANAL QUESTION
REVIVED BY RADCLIFFE

George L. Radcliffe, Democratic
Senatorial nominee, emerged from the
White House after his first visit to
the President during the campaign
and announced that the long-languish-
ing Chesapeake and Delaware Canal
project would be put on the preferred
list of the PWA.
He was accompanied to the White
House by Senator Tydings-who after
wards described the President as Every

penditure of $12,00O.0O to modernize
the canal and open it to ocean-going
traffic.
Enough funds will not be available
to permit the entire project to be car

Westover and up to the "Y" with the
contractors beginning to pour concrete
on the final lap Tuesday morning Of
last week. Upon completion of the
road, which is expected to be in about
ten days, work will be begun at once
on the shoulders and the entire stretch
is expected to be opened to traffic in
the near future. ,
Owing to the fact that the road
is being torn up and concrete being
laid on the lower end this week, all
traffic through Westover has been
compelled to detour at the northern
railroad crossing at Westover and re-
enter the main highway at Chamber
lains Garage, at the southern railroad
crossing.
When the extremely bad weather
of the early spring and the constant
rains during September are taken into
consideration, the contractors, if they
complete the work before cold wealth
err, have done a wonderful piece of
work and deserve the commentator

SCHOOL CHILDREN UNDER
STATE EXAMINATION

Medical examinations of all East
ern Shore school children have begun
DR.. Ralph G. Beachley, Deputy State
Health Officer, has announced.
Attention will be concentrated first
on younger children in the nine coun-
ties under his jurisdiction, DR.. Beach
ley said. Particular attention will be
paid to the general health of children
in the first three grades. it was stated
close examinations being made of teeth
tonsils, heart, lungs, hearing, skin
condition and weight.
DR.. Beachely said the program he
has planned for the examinations will
have two purposes to correct con-
ditions which might lead to illness
or physical handicap in later life, and
to point out corrective measures
which are needed to parents, so fam
lily physicians may be consulted for
necessary treatment.
Examinations of older children will
be in the nature Of fellowship on prev
ious tests, he explained.
Last year, 44,081 school children in
Maryland counties were examined, as
were 6.OO4 children who reached school
age during the year.

CHESAPEAKE CAPTAIN
MAKES ANOTHER RESCUE

Capt. Wash Woodall entered another
rescue in the log of his Love Point
Ferry so called watch dog Of the
Chesapeake, early Sunday morning
when the crew Of the Ferry picked
up seven men from a disabled boat
that had been adrift in heavy sea
for fifteen hours.
The party including E. G. Atkinson
J. A. Dexter, F. J. Harten, E. w. Har-
lebein, George Filler, R. c. Collins
and John Seabrook had left Baltimore
Saturday afternoon in a small yacht
for a weekend fishing trip off the
Kent County shore near colchester.
Upon reaching the Eastern Shore side
of the bay the tiller rope parted and
the engine went dead. Rolling heavy
in the sea the part cast anchor but the
heavy wind and sea carried them stead
lily out in the bay.
Wrapped in blankets the party set
through the chilling night watching
for a passing boat that might rescue
them. A white flag was unfurled to
the breeze early Sunday morning
which caught the eye Of Capt. Wood
all and the rescue resulted.
Apart from sea sickness there were
no serious consequences though several
of the party stated they had caught
ND on their fishing for the rest of
the season. One said mo more trip
on the water for me-" The Ferry
towed the disabled boat to Love Point
and the fishermen returned by Ferry
a little later to Baltimore.

GAME PRESERVE FOR
SOMERSET is ASSURED

A game preserve, or refuge, for
Somerset county became a fact on
Wednesday Of last week, when the
State Game Department completed
negotiations for the lease Of huge
area in this county.
The property secured, and already
turned over to the Department under
terms of the lease, is the Cameron
property, located n Paramount Dis
trict, and is said to include some 1900
acres of land. This farm is admir-
ably suited for a game refuge, accord
ing to those who know the type of
land best adapted to this purpose.
Plenty of cover for all kinds of small
game, and it has the added advantage
that for years there has been little
or no cunning allowed on the prem
Uses.
Already it is said this area con-
tains more small game than any SIM
liar area in the county, and it is the
purpose of the Game Division to stock
the farm with pheasants, quail and
similar game birds, as well as rab-
bits, just as soon as the restrictions
against the shipping of these animals
has been removed.
It is understood that the State
Game Divisions lease on the Cameron
farm is to run for five years, and ac-
cording to Deputy Game Warden R.
M. Carey the farm will be posted i'm
mediately, and no hunting of any
character will be permitted during the
life of the lease.

DECISION NEARS
ON SILVER
BY International News Service

ny AnCcFHdIIOndI news service
President Roosevelt neared a
public decision on the silver issue
today as the Senate silver bloc
threatened a showdown on the
question of bimetallism.
On the eve of a conference with
the President, leaders of the sill
yer bloc sponsored an amendment
to pending Senate legislation, pro-
posing a new three-fold silver
program, parts of which were re-
ported Objectionable to the Presi-
dent.
The President already has in
dicated he would start a silver
purchasing campaign shortly, the
silver so bought to be used as the
pasiS for silver certificates. This
form of bimetallism is acceptable
to the silver leaders, even though
it fails to go as far as they pro-
pose.
The silver issue was brought to
a climax by Senator Thomas DO
of Oklahoma, who introduced the
new silver program as an amend
ment to the Glass bill providing
Federal loans to private industries.

OFFICERS
BLAMED FOR
FAILURES
Unsound Practices and Salary
Raids Revealed by Pecora
In Cleveland Collapse
BY International News Service

UnSound pracClceS ana mis-
management" caused the collapse
of the huge Guardian Trust Co.
of Cleveland, Ohio, Ferdinand
Pecora, special counsel. charged
in a report made to the Senate
Banking Committee today.
While the specific charges in
the report related only to the
Guardian group, Pecora mentioned
that similar practices accounted
for the failure of the Union Trust
Co., another large Cleveland bank
ing chain.
Big Speculative Loans
The Guardian Company and
its subsidiaries comprised 26
separate corporations.
Speculative and unwise loans
to the Van Sweringen Railroad
interests, totalling $4,306,324, and
to the Eaton Utility groups,
amounting to $4.546,426, were
made by the Guardian Bank, ac-
cording to the report.
Officers permitted the bank to
be "milked" by subsidiaries, the
report said. Gradually. the bank
became engaged in the operation
Of an office building, a chain of
hotels. coal mine. a product
market house, residential. apart.
ment and business property, the
holding of vacant allotment prop
erty and speculation in stocks and
bonds.
Salary Raids BY Officers
Meanwhile. officers voted huge
salaries and bonuses to themselves
while the bank was losing money.
The bank officials likewise made
large loans from the institution.
In 1929 and 1880, salaries and
bonuses to officers amounted to
100000 and the salaries con-
tinued throughout the depression
until the bank was closed in 1882,
according to the report.
Mr.. Pecora charged that the
Michigan and national bank holi-
days and general economic condi-
tionS had little to do with the
banking collapse.
Six Causes Listed
He listed the following spe-
cific reasons for the failure:
/. An unwiSe loan policy.
2. An unsound investment
policy.
3. Due to the loan policy,
the bank was forced into a posi-
ton Of being a large holder of
real estate through foreclosure.
4. InadeQuacy of reserves.
S. Too liberal dividend pol
icy.
6 The engagement in prac-
tically every type of business
along with the banking bust
ness.
