PLOT CHARGES
BY BANNISTER
HOLD ! MEN

NEW YORK, July Is Q.N.S0
Two men faced arraignment on
eXtortion charges here today fol
lowing Harry Bannister's disclo-
sure that he paid them $4,000
to suppress an immortality" as
cuSation.
Ignoring consequences his reVela-
ton might have on his legal battle
with Ann Harding for custody Of
their daughter, Bannister followed
the lead of Alfred E. Smith, jr.,
who started exposure of "shake-
down" practices on prominent
men, who took his case to Assist
ant District Attorney Harold w.
Hastings.
AS a result, two men, Jerome
Jacobs, New York attorney already
charged with a similar crime, and
Ray Derringer, IS, also of New
York, were arrested. Jacobs has
been at liberty under $4,000 bail
on an eXtortion charge preferred
by Paul BonWit, New York mer-
chant.
Feared Spying
Bannister, whose battle with his
W
over custody of their daughter,
Jane, z, has ragged in courts from
California to Canada, revealed he
had been led to believe that Miss
Harding had employed detectives
to spy on him. Later he discoV-
cred this was not true.
After a conference with Ban
mister, Hastings said:
HE (BanniSter) made a state
ment that in November, 1894,
Jerome Jacobs and Ray Der
ringer, acting in concert with
two unknown men, obtained
$4,000 from him on the threat
to expose him to disgrace. Their
story was that detectives had
been retained by Ann Harding
to find out what BanniSter was
doing and to secure evidence of
certain immoral acts.
REVEALED AS FRAUD
at was represented to Ban
mister that the detectives had
secured a damaging affidavit,
but that they, in concert with
Jacobs and Derringer, were will
ing to sell out Miss Harding
and give up the affidavit in
payment for $4,000.

Mutual Savings Banks

Greatest Number of DepOsitors in l2O Years Water
 bury Savings Bank Rated 62nd in Nation

At the end of the year 1885 the Waterbury Savings Bank had de- posits of $33, ,132,002 and was the 62d largest mutual savings institu- ton in the United States, accord- ing to Q report of the National As- sociation of Mutual Savings Banks. The local bank followed the nation wide trend during 1885 by increas- ing in deposits, depositors, assets and surplus accounts.
 The largest mutual savings bank in the country at the end of the year was the Bowery Savings Bank of New York, with deposits of more than 405 million dollars. Sixteen mutual savings banks have deposits of more than 100 million dollars.
 At the year end deposits of mutual institutions, operating in 18 states, reached the sum of $0,9i7,813 ,052. 6 gain for the last six months of @47,- 76l, ,032, and for the year $160. .l22,- 118. This figure closely approached the all-time peak of January l, 1882, when deposits were SIG, ,030 O14 ,365.
 Greatest I'm 120 Years
 The gain in number of new ac- counts was at a rate even more sat- isfactory, the increase for the last six months being 8i.208, and for the year, 24O.037. These additions brought total depositors to l4,O77. 812, the greatest number ever serv- ed by mutual savings banks in l2O years of operation. Also 1t was noted that new accounts increased faster in the last half year, than in the first.
 Assets in the second six months mounted by 953. 3.263. .36D and for the year 41S6,004, ,062, to Q new record total of $11,2l2,303. .04e.

 Doherty conservatively estimates that the national annual loss from infantile paralysis includes at least $500, 100000 in lost incomes, while $60, 100000 is needed each year fol curative work alone.
 As Q signal contribution to the nations fight to stamp out the dis ease, Doherty, who has known the president for many yearsfi conceived the idea of the mammoth birthday party after Roosevelt took office. DOHERTY SPONSORED PLAN.
 Doherty saw that the Warm Springs Foundation was the presi- dents only outside interest and he detrznined to further is as being close to the chief executives heart
 To realize what Warm Springs means to President Roosevelt, one must remember that 300,000 of the nations cripples today can trace their affiiction to infantile paraly- sis.

 Six thousand American towns and cities will join hands Jan. 30 at birthday balls to celebrate the 64th anniversary of President Franklin D. Roosevelt with a fresh outpour- ing of funds for the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation.
 Thus for the third time since Roosevelt took office, his anniver- sary will be made the occasion for nation wide drive against the ravages of infantile paralysis.
 As the date draws near this year, reports from every state and from territorial possessions indicate the celebration will surpass the two preceding ones.
 Last year 5000 birthday balls were held. This year from $500 to 5000 are definitely planned. Bermu- da will hold It's first ball this year, under auspices of Lady Cubitt, wife of the governor general. Sir Thomas Astley Cubitt. There will be one also, for the first time, in the Virgin Islands; six in Alaska and three in Hawaii.
 ONE BALL IN "A TRAILER And down in the Florida Ever glades Charley Hartog, born in Holland and still Q citizen of that country, will hold the country's smallest Roosevelt ball. He'll be host in his 6x18 automobile trailer. Hartog will conduct his ball ur- der the same rules that the rest of the country follows. These rules stipulate that 70 per cent of all proceeds are to be retained for To- cal campaigns against the dread disease while the remaining 30 per cent will be sent to Warm Springs.
 That plan was found satisfactory last year, as Warm Springs can ac- commodate only 100 patients and the 70 per cent of funds raised is needed more acutely in local com- munities.
 The first nationwide birthday ball in 1884 raised $1,003, 1000 and the 1935 celebration cleared $l,07l,- GOO.

 Treatment at the springs, which always are at 80 degrees tenpera- ture, is based on the principle that a body weighs as much less in wa- ter as the amount of fluid 1t dis places. Thus paralysis-weakened muscles may be better exercised in water than where they would have no outside support.
