"truce' in the interests of recOv- cry. The situation resulting from this suggestion cannot, of course. be regarded as permanent. A last ing remedy for the acute unsettle- ment of recent months must await a clarification of the labor clauses of the recovery act, which the events of the last few weeks have done little to bring about. For the time being, however. the presi- dents proposal seems to have modified the aggressive attitude of labor groups and given some re- assurance.
 Perhaps more substantial ground for encouragement is to be found in Nrecent financial de- velopment. Loans of weekly re- porting member banks of the fed- eral reserve system, other than loans secured by stocks and bonds, have increased without interrup- tion for thirteen successive weeks. The aggregate gain amounts to $325, 100000, or 7.3 per cent. Dur ing the same period, loans secured by stocks and bonds have declined $439, 100000. resulting in a mod crate decline in total loans.
 The most favorable interpretation that can be placed upon the situa- tion is that the banks have made further progress in liquidating semi-frozen collateral loans and have placed the bulk of the pro- ceeds in commercial advances. To the extent that this is the case, it indicates that the re-absorption of banking funds In sound commer- cial projects, one of the major ob- jectives of the federal recovery program and one of the most diff ficult problems of business revival, Is gradually being effected.
 The most striking change in the position of the banks. although not the most rcent. Is the increase in demand deposits. This trend has been under way, with only minor interruptions, for more than a year.
 Trends in the long-term capital market. unfortunately. are much less encouraging. Aside from the large government issues, new flo- tations are still at an extremely low level. Most of the new secur- tiles. moreover, are those of local governments, not of corporations, and thus reflect deficit financing by states and municipalities, rather than corporate capital expansion. Of the corporate offerings, more- over, the bulk consists of refund ing issues. not of new capital.
 In view of these conditions, 1t is not surprising to find continued stagnation in the durable goods in- dustries. despite the efforts of the government to stimulate activity in these branches of business and the investment of large amounts of public funds for this purpose. The amount of new construction con- tracts awarded last month was the lowest since last February and was considerably below the figure year ago. with publicly financed projects representing nearly two- thirds of the total.

Gloria Vanderbilt to Mrs Harry Payne
Whitney
Mrs. Vanderbilt's attorney has al

her petition for a writ of habeas
corpus, original basis for the sensa-
tional hearing.

When member of her legal staff at
tempted to file them, however. ne
learned the higher court would receive
motion papers only on the day the
motion calendar is called-next Fri
day.
The contents of the AFFIDAVIT were
not made public.
The question to be decided by the
appellate division is whether Justice
Carew's decision is final" Mrs. VAN
derbilt's attorney argues that it is not
final and that therefore he cannot
proceed with Mrs. Vanderbilt's plan
to appeal to every court In the United

Justice Carew, who wrote the words
final order" on the papers, has as
serted that his words mean what they

STORES ON GUARD
FORCOUNTERFE|TS|
Business Men Spot $40 Bills
Made on Dallas Bank.
Arrests May Be Near.

With the United States Secret Serv-
ice drive against countertelters prlng-
ing forcibly to public attention last
week the danger from bogus money
here in the National Capital. business
men are now on their guard, particu-
larly against $40 notes on the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of Dallas, Tex,
which have deceived number OF in
nocent people here, and caused con-
siderable loss.
1t is believed that the Secret Serv-
Ice has picked up all OF the $lOO
bills laid down" by paSsers here
from a supply out of the big Tenaf1y.
N. j., counterfeiters' ring plant, which
was seized by the Secret Service CO.
operating with State police. But other
spurious money is believed to be still
in circulation here from other sources.
Most suspicious are the $40 and $40
bills.
The one particular and most de-
ceptive one, however. merchants have
been told is the $40 note on the Dali
las Federal Reserve Bank.

that kind OF bill are warned 10

careless handler of money. 1t Is SAID
the back is less expertly forged. The
green color of the White House is
paler. lighter green than the ink on
the face.
Arrests Believed Near.
Police and the secret service still
are on the lookout for certain passers
of counterfeit money here. and it was
believed last night that arrests might
be near.
Most of the counterfeit money OF
bad execution usually has come into
through merchants hands into the
banks. But some of the more SKILL
fully made innocently may be passed
around for a long time.
This has caused sharp warlness on
the part of tradesmen throughout the
city.
Not all passers of counterfeit money
are engaged in the manufacture, as the
underworld has regular system
through which known characters can
buv well-made counterfeits at a price.
The price is always below the face
value, generally averaging not more
than 80 cents on the dollar. A gang
will buy up lot of this counterfeit
paper from the source of supply and
risk arrest for the profit represented
by the 70 cents or more difference be-
tween the price and the face value.

push over a touchdown in the final
quarter and keep their coast unde-
feated record intact here yesterday.
The score was to 0.
The national professional football
champions scored their fourth coast
victory in the last 10 minutes of
play. Cliff Battles, Bear halfback,
shot a forward pass to Bill Karr
who tossed a lateral to Bill Hewitt,
left end, from the 25-yard stripe.
Hewitt scampered 10 yards to
score and Jack Manders kicked
goal.
Pinckert s squad was greatly out
gained but put up a valiant fight
to ward off previous scoring
threats. Battles turned in the most
sensational running play of the day
with a 50-yard canter that started
from his own 8-yard stripe in the
second quarter. The All-Stars broke
up the Bears passing attack re-
peatedly by interruptions.
Presnell and Musick bore the
brunt of the Stars offensive at
tempts but failed to impress the
easterners.
