US. SAVINGS BANK
SUIT WEIGHED.
Payment of $256, 500 to De-
positors Hangs on Justice
Wheat's Decision.

Payment of S256,500 in dividends to
depositors of the closed United States
Savings Bank hangs on the decision OF
Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat OF Dis
trict Supreme Court, in a case brought
before him late yesterday.
This was disclosed by George p.
Barse, general counsel of the Treasury
Departments Division of msoivent
National Banks, at the conclusion OF
hearing on a motion to dismiss the
suit brought by the bank to compel
the Controller of the Currency ana
the Secretary of the Treasury to lift
the receivership of the bank and re-
store it to its officers.
Distribution of Is per cent dlvl-
dend to depositors, who already have
received a IS per cent payment, has
been made possible through Recon-
struction Finance Corp. loan. and Is
being delayed by the suit. which rep
resents the latest effort of Col. Wade
H. Cooper, former president. to regain
control of the bank he once headed,
Barse declared.
Chief Justice Wheat took the motion
under advisement after Barse and his
associate, George B. SpringSton, had
argued that all substantial issues in
volved in the suit already had been
passed on by the local courts.
Philip H. Marcum, bank attorney,
contends the courts never have had
before them the question of the banks
solvency at the time it was placed in
the hands of a receiver. He claimed
this action by the controller was uu-
justified and intended to destroy the
institution. A report of the receiver
Carter B. Keene, last Summer. showed
the bank not only is solvent, but also
has sufficient funds to restore its
capital structure, Marcum stated.

MISS PERKINS HITS
INDUSTRY ATTITUDE
Charges Unwillingness to Meet
Labor Halfway in Quest of
Better Standards.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LANSING, Mich, October 18.-
Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, in
an address here last night, charged
American industry has shown IAN un-
willingness to cooperate with labor
and meet 1t halfway in quest for
adequate living standards and working
conditions.
Secretary Perkins said "the last two
years have seen an improvement in
this condition, largely due to the Gov
ernment's encouragement of workers
in exercising the right to organize into
labor unions"
Miss Perkins defined the New Deal
social security programs goal as "a
good life for the average man and
woman" Such a standard, she said,
twill have as its slogan the truism
that man is entitled to the right to
live in return for the work he has
done rather than the old one that
man must work to live"
She declared capitalism, as it exists
today, places labor in role not far
different from serfdom because man
is not master of himself-he is not in
dependent. He has no voice in set
ting his daily wage and he cannot de-
eide whether it shall continue beyond
today"

King and st. Asaph streets.
Recalling earlier days Of the his
toric city, old timers suggested the
well was either an ice storage vault,
used when ice was cut from the
Potomac river in Winter and stored
for Summer use; q fire well, used
when hand-pumper engines were en-
ployed to extinguish fires as the
grandfather of present fire plugs; a
public pump similar to others that
dotted Alexandria's street corners a
hundred years ago, or an old-time
septic tank.
No one remembered when the well
had been in use. City workmen
dumped more than 20 truck loads OF
dirt and rocks into the shaft to fill 1t.

MAN s WINGS
SUCCESSFUL

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, Feb. %.
W.P}-Man at last has scared on
bird-like wings under his own pow
er, fulfilling dreams that have ex-
ercised mans ingenuity since the
dawn Of history.
Glenn Sohn. parachute jumper,
made few notifications in his
homemade wings today, eager for
another experiment in flying as
birds fly.
Late yesterday he jumped off an
airplane 10000 feet above the earth.
He wore wings across his shoulders
and attached to his arms and wrists.
His legs supported webbing which,
when spread gave him the plane
surface of a birds tail.
For 1000 feet he dropped as a
dead weight, his arms at his side
which held his wings in a folded
position. He spread out his arms,
checking his descent. For while
he glided, testing the wings. Then
he zoomed, first to left, then to
right, leveling out, shooting upward
and downward. He looped three
times.
At 5000 feet he pulled the rip
cord of his parachute and settled to
earth.
Aviation experts did not see much
practical value in his achievement.
His wings. they said. made him into
glider. They did not believe he
could fly any great distance under
his own power.

HARRISONBURG, Va, July &C.
Deputy Sheriff S. F. Newman of
Grottoes, Rockingham County, today
looked for Augusta County authori-
ties to arrest a man whom Matt
Goens, 38-year-old mountaineer, said
poured an infiammable fluid on his
clothes and fired them while he lay
asleep Friday night.
The incident occurred at Goens'
home in Augusta County, the noun
taineer, badly burned and suffering
from exposure, told the deputy. Goens
is now at the home of brother-in-
law, Dan Rannells, in Grottoes.
Newman quoted Goens as saying he
was alone at his home in the Black
Rock Spring section of the Blue
Ridge Mountains, 2 miles from here,
when he awakened with his clothes
blazing. Though the skin on his back
was burned almost completely off,
Goens said he tried to make his way
to a neighbor's house for aid. How
ever, he collapsed in the woods, where
he was found Sunday night.
GoenS was in such serious condi-
ton last night when he first told his
story to Newman he could not recite
all details of the affair, but did tell the
officer the man he charged deliber-
ately fired his clothing.
