PARK BANK UPHELD
IN SUIT FOR BOND
Liability Of Surety Company
to Pay $50,00O Is
Affirmed.

The right Of John F. Moran. re-
ceiver of the Park Savings Bank, to
collect $50. 900 bond which became due
as a result of "defalcatior by Robert
S. Stunz' was affirmed today by the
Court of Appeals.
The American Surety Co. of New
York, which was liable on the bond
claimed 1t was not legally bound to
pay the money because the bank con-
tinued in business after its charter
had expired 1t was contended the
action taken by the banking corpora
tion after the date of the expiration
was in excess of its powers, and that
the surety company, therefore, could
not be held liable.
The court, however, held the surety
company knew as a matter OF law
that the charter had expired. that 1t
continued to accept premiums on the
bond and that it knew the corpora
ton was continuing in business and
was not in process OF liquidation.
Under these circumstances, 1t was de-
cided, the surety company could not
escape liability.
The receiver advanced his claim
after the discovery Of alleged short
ages in the accounts Of Robert S.
Stunz, vice president. who committed
suicide shortly after the banking hoh-
day was declared. The receiver was
represented by Attorneys j. Bruce
Kremer, George B. Springston and
Herbert M. Bingham.
The surety company previously had
paid a primary bond of 100000 to
the receiver. If the $50.O00 bond is
paid it can be used for future
dividend for depositors,

NEW NAVAL TALKS
| HELD MANDATORY
Conference Is Required by
London Treaty-Davis
Here to Report.
By CONSTANTINE BROWN.


A new naval conference will have to
be held this year, despite the Japa-
nese denunciation of the Washington
naval agreement, it was learned today.
The London naval treaty of 1880.
dealing with ships other than capital
ships and large airplane carriers,
makes such a conference mandatory,
its drafters not having considered the
possibility that one of the signatorie5
Of the Washington treaty might de-
eide to scrap it.
Norman H. Davis, President Roose-
velt's ambassador at large and chief
delegate to the shipwrecked London
parleys, is in Washington to present
a full report to the President and
to Secretary Of State Hull about
the prospects of that new conference
and the facts which led to the fall
ure of the London parleys.
New Ships Planned.
In the meantime each of the five
signatorieS of both treaties are pre-
pairing to build new ships, big and
small.
The British admiralty has informed
the American delegates privately that
two battleships of 10000 tons each
will be put on the ways in 1885.
These vessels are requirements of
average ships. When they are ready
two battleships built in 1912 will be
scrapped. Under the circumstances
1t Is probable that the American
Navy will replace at least one obso-
lete battleship in 1886 and probably
another one in 1887.
The Japanese, who have completed
the full quota Of auxiliary vessels al
lowed them by the London treaty,
need not engage in any important
shipbuilding program. But the naval
experts await with interest the next
step Japan will make 1t is possible
that she, too, will begin to replace
some of her old battleships, as it is
possible that she will begin to build
warshipS for Manchoukuo.
The Italians are building at present
two battleships of $4,000 tons each
which will be the last word in naval
engineering.
The French are going to follow the
Italian lead. Ambassador Andre de
Laboulaye has presented the State De-
partment an official note from his
government in reply to Americas
notification that Japan has decided to
terminate the Washington naval agree
ment.
Frances Stand Outlined.
In this note the French government
outlined in precise language Frances
stand growing out of Japan's denun-
citation of the flve-power agreement,
saying that the French Parliament
when it ratified that treaty expressed
its wish that it shall not be continued
beyond 1896.
The French government expresses
its hope that a new agreement may
be negotiated to replace the Wash
ington treaty, but drew America
Government attention to the fact that
since 1920 the world situation has
changed materially. Other nations
which at the time when the Wash
ington agreement was negotiated and
signed had no navies, did not par
ticipate then in the negotiations. To-
day, such nations have warships the
existence Of which France cannot
overlook.
The French note is interpreted to
mean that at the next conference
the French government will demand
an increase of its present heavy ships
ratio in order to maintain its su-
premacy in relation to the Italian
and the German navieS.

An added complication Is the fact
that the regular budget is not seq

Roosevelt was moved to make these

mendolls pressure for budget balanc-

time every one realizes the budget
can not be balanced, and the pressure
is now limited largely to curtailment
of heavy relief expenditures. The pro-
pram he offered to Congress Friday
was supposed to assuage the curtail-
ment pressure, by anticipating cur
tailment of relief rolls.
Different situations require differ

The "Brown System"
You might call Mr.. Roosevelt's new
technique "the Brown budget sys-
tenn" Ordinary bookkeepers mark
their excess emergency expenditures
in red ink and nominal expenditures
in black ink. Mr.. Roosevelt has COM
bined them.
Artists will tell you that the result
of combining black and red make a
rather vague and uncertain color OF
brown, but that does not destroy the
aptnesS of the metaphor.
OF course, some critics will be

Roosevelt is color blind as far as red

You can see where that puts the
bonus CongreSsmen. Right in front
of the taxpayers buzz saw. There are
more people in every congressional dis
trict who will have to pay the in
creased taxes than there are people
who would benefit from the bonus.
They will yell just as loudly against
the bonus as the veterans are yelling
for it. if they are properly organized
in time.
The trouble Is that the White
House did not get started soon enough.
Mr.. Roosevelts first announcement
was made only a few days before
Congress convened. Taxpayers have
no organization which can swing
into action on Congressman like the
efficient veterans lobby.
May Stop 1t Yet.
As things now stand, the cash
bonus (without new taxes) will pass
with sufficient congressional support
to override q veto. Mr.. Roosevelt
can yet stop it If he tries hard enough
and all indications are that he will
ultimately throw the full energy Of
the White House into it.
The laugh is certainly not on
Senators Minton and Truman for

toned in this space a te,D days ago.
The Senators did not ,orite those

New Budget System of
Roosevelt Defes
Critical Analysis.
BY PAUL MALLON.


A BUDGET is a simple thing
~ You figure how much money
~ you expect to have coming in
4 4 and how much you expect to
spend.
President Roosevelt figures his in
come next year will be little higher
because business will be little better
and more taxes will be coming in
He expects his expenses will be about
the same, because what little econo-
mics he can make in unemployment
relief must 60 to improve the ma
tional defense and other things.
On that basis he accounts himself
as being $4,800,O00,000 behind this
year and predicts he will be $4,500,-
100000 behind next year.
That is all you need to kno,o
; about the budget. At least, it is
about all you will find out. il you
dig through the 81 printed budget
pages (size of G large dictionary
from noU until doomSday.
With Mr.. Roosevelt, budget making
is at once a science and an art. He
became interested in the subject when
he was Governor of New York, and
those around him can see that he
likes it.
Not So Easy Now.
Last year he introduced the dou-
ble-entry bookkeeping system. He
counted his income in one column
but his expenses in two columns, one
for real expenses and one for emer-
gency expenses.
His adversaries figured that one
out easily. They added up the two
expense columns. This year they
will not find it so easy. He has
moved some Of the emergency items

back into the regular budget column
He has started to combine his two
expense columns, so it is extremely
difficult to tell which Is which.
