j. s. SAVINGS BANK
ESTIMATE Backed
Backed 8 Races from the Book Of Style
Officials Report Shows
Forecast of IS Per Cent
Payment Correct.

Conforming with previous estimates
that they will be able to pay off
about IS per cent Of depositors'
claims, officials handling the receiv-
ership of the United States Savings
Bank figure in a quarterly report to
the controller of the currency that
the total remaining assets of that
institution were 81 1912 on March 81.
Outstanding obligations against
these assets are deposit claims totaling
about $677,000 and about $670,000
more in obligations to the Recon-
struction Finance Corp. The r. F. G.
loans amounted to 81 1,445,7 1893 origi-
nally, but $771,193 has been repaid.
The quarterly report shows $28l ,846
in cash now in the hands of the re.
ceiver and controller, this amount
having been realized principally
through liquidation of Home Owners
Loan Corp. holdings.
Meanwhile, reports filed by the
Neutrality-suspicious. Savings and
Commercial Bank indicate that that
institution will be able eventually to
carry out its plans to pay of depositors
in full. It's book assets were figured
at S296, ,973 March 81. About $162 900
will be needed to pay depositors in
entirety. Approximately $4,000 more
will be needed to pay off the remainder
Of an r. F. c. obligation.
No date has been set in either case
for the next dividend or for compile
ton Of liquidation proceedings. AS
sets will not be sacrificed in an effort
to speed liquidation. it was explained
at both institutions. The average
time necessary for clearing the affairs
of closed banks has been five years,
the Treasury Department has found.
Sixty-f1ve per cent of the dollar
value Of deposit claims at the United
States Savings Bank were paid off
previously, while the Woodbridge
Langdon has paid off so per cent.

DRASWELL DRUE DEEM is a
ID sad but wiser young man.
The gangling Georgian has
learned what any old-timer could
have told him. that cheers and
plaudits do not necessarily mean
votes.
Deem is the House member who
suddenly skyrocketed out of the
obscurity of the back benches
with a rip-snorting demand for
the shelving of the Presidents tax
program and the prompt adj
iournment of Congress. The
speech and his picture made the
front pages in Washington. A
cannier politician would have
stopped right there, we'll content
with the publicity.
But the inexperienced Georgian.
inflamed with the sound of his
own little-heard voice, cast aside
caution and raised the banner of
revolt. He offered a resolution for
adjournment. thereby sealing his
doom.
Unquestionably. a majority of
the House Democrats want to
quit. and if left to their own de-
vices would do so pronto. But
with the President demanding ac-
ton on his tax program. the boys
don't dare kick over the traces.
So after hurrahing Deem to the
echo when he talked adjourn
ment, they hastily cuffed him into
place when he took them seri-
ously and offered an adjournment
motion.
Deem is a school teacher. small
town banker and country weekly
editor. who had a 100 per cent
Nea Deal record until his ad-
journment outbreak.
Now. Deems friends say, he Is
very much worried. His district
in Georgia Is strongly pro-Roose-
welt, and he fears his slip may
bring embarrassing reverberations.

Tntent7 What Is That

TT goes without saying and without challenge that
i none of the great swindlers in the field referred
to here ever undertook job without first consulting
his lawyers to make certain that the documents to
which he was about to commit his signature pro-
tected him from the penalty which he knew he de-
served The intent of course was plain to the attor
neyS, but they not concerned with the intent,
being hired only to say, out of their expert knowl
edge whether the client had exposed himself to
criminal or civil liability They knew how, and their
knowledge in such cases turned to much
destructive than all the ambulancechaSing and
all the comma hunting and penny-ante jury-hxing
of all the criminal lawyers in the courts.
1t is good, rough rOuSing reading when some one
from the Department of Justice the upper reaches
of the bar hoists up at trade-unon conference of
the legal profession to denounCe the ambulance
chaser and other vermin vaguely described shys-
ters But these denunciations are all of a piece
with the editorial denouncing the common cold
wrestlers and lax morality in the young.
Even if the ambulance chaser and the hoodlums
mouthpiece we're ignored and allowed to proceed
subject only to the normal risks of their loW-ved
trade, the of all their crimes would hardly
match the consequences of those legal services by
the aristocrats not only promoted the great dis
aster but, far more than any misconduct of the
smal-time lawyer, brought the law into the con-
tempt of the people.

Today S Science
RY DAVID DIETZ.

THE successful treatment of case of one of the
i most dreadful diseases known to medical science
is reported by group of American doctors. The
disease known as hyperparathyrodism. is condi-
ton ceused by too much activity upon the part of
the parathyroid glands four tiny bodies located be-
hnd the thyroid gland W the neck each one the size
of grain Of wheat
The present success recalls the famous case in
medical history of Capt. Charles Martell the cap
tain who shrank" Martell. originally six feet tall
and captain of convoy during the World War
tuay shrank in size became pigeon breasted finally
losing foot in height. His bones became brittle and
broke frequently. his muscles eventually became so
weak that he could not stand.
Seven operations proved that his condition was
caused by tumorS of the parathyroid glands but
came late to his life. 1t was said then that
he mad not died in vain and the just reported

proves the truth of the statement.

In 1925 the patient complained of trouble with
his knee and X-ray pictures showed changes were
taking place in the bone. year later. he broke
both legs and spent six months in hospital
With the progress of the years his condition got
worse and in 1929 he was admitted to the Philadel-
phis General Hospital. He had Shrunk 45 inches in
height and every bone of the body showed degenera
tive changes

such that IL decided TO attempt straighten the
defoImties which the disease had caused in his legs
Two such operations we're performed.

Up at fantastic Ponca City, gen.
ial Lou Wentz, oil duke and the
fifth richest bachelor in the world,
said: There are five Have Nots

that, how can Roosevelt be de-

Down in Huey's home town of

Stenographer shook her fist when
she said to me: Il can't think
up enough bad things to say about
that man. He's got everybody

scared to death"
In Richfeld, Utah, an old cod
ger getting his car fixed in the
garage across the street from the
hotel allowed with chuckle:
IF we hadn't a got rain this

This is a Republican country but

In the bright sunshine of Los

Times is still plenty hard, but l
don't know what more Roosevelt
can do. Reckon he'll cary this
state"
In western Indiana 4 storekeep-
er propounded his views: Looks
to me as if young Col. Roosevelt
would be the best man the Re-
publicans could nominate. but 1
don't guess it would do him much
good. Way l size up the situation

said to me: Il voted for Hoover

In Minneapolis the editor of a

ton: Governors more or less
have to play along in order to
get their share of the Federal
money. When F. D. r. is off

stops preaching-the people stop
believing in him so ardently,"
At Ames, Ia. a professor in

In fair omaha Otto Swanson,
able business man, said: Last
