j. s. SAVINGS BANK
TO PAY $170,0)O
Third Dividend, Amounting
to 10 Per Cent, Authorized
by Controller O'Connor.

A third dividend, Of 10 per cent.
amounting to $4,000. was authorized
today by the controller of the cur
rency to be paid to $500 depositors
of the United States Savings Bank.
This brings the total of three divi-
dends to 80 per cent, amounting to
1887 $3.50, made available to depos-
itors.
The new dividend was made possible
through an additional loan obtained
from the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
on the remaining assets of the bank.
This loan was obtained several months
ago, but the dividend had to be with
held until determination of suit filed
by Col. Wade H. Cooper, former presi-
dent Of the bank, to force the Secretary
of the Treasury and the controller of
the currency to dissolve the receiver
ship. The Court of Appeals recently
dismissed Col. Cooper's suit, and this
paved the way for payment of the
dividend.
The dividend will be made avail
able by Receiver Carter B. Keene at
the bank, Fourteenth and U streets.
Payment Of the new dividend began
this afternoon. In order, however, to
make the payment in an orderly man.
ner, depositors were asked to wait un-
til they are notified by mail to call
for their money. The receiver is

FATHER COUGHL|N
TO HOLD SILENCE
Associates Say He Pre-.
pared Apology Before Re-
ported Telephone Talk.
Hy the Associated Press.

DETROIT, July 24.-Associates of
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin said today
that he probably will have no COM
ment whatever to make" regarding re-
ports that a telephone conversation
with the Vatican preceded publication
of the priests public apology for hav-
ing called President Roosevelt a "liar." {"
They said they did not know whether
such a call had been made and de-
clared that Father Coughlin began
preparation of the apology immedi-
ately after his return from Cleveland,
where he made the attack on President
Roosevelt July 16.
In the same open letter which con-
tanned the apology Father Coughlin
expressed an intention to do all pos
sible to defeat President Roosevelt for
reelection.
In a subsequent interview at his
Shrine of the Little Flower, Father
Coughlin said that II have no per-
sonal quarrel with the President, and
I believe he is well-intentioned, but
he succeeds in surrounding himself
with crackpots."
The formal statement was published
under the heading "An Open Letter
of Apology to President Roosevelt" in
the July q issue of Social Justice,
organ of Father Coughlin's National
Union for Social Justice.
Signed by Father Coughlin, it said
that he spoke "in righteous anger"
when II addressed to the President Of
the United States in a speech at
Cleveland July Is the word liar"
and "for that action now offer to
the President my sincere apology"
Shall Work for Defeat.
The same open letter said that "as
my President still respect you; as
fellow citizen and as a man I still
regard you highly, but as an execu-
tive, despite your excellency's fine
intentions, deem it best for the well
fare of our common country that you
be supplanted in Office. To that end,
in a gentlemanly and courageous
manner, shall strive"
The possibility existed that Father
Coughlin's efforts toward that end
might be restrained.
An American prelate in Rome said
the church was considering action
to curtail the Royal Oak priests po-
litical activities, which have included
Endorsement of Representative VIII
liam Lemke as candidate of the Union
party for President. Any such action
awaits the arrival at Rome of Bishop
Michael Gallagher, Father Coughlin's
ecclesiastical superior at Detroit.
Father Coughlin said that what
ever orders come from Rome curtail-
ing my preaching social justice,

Vandenberg Says Action by White
House Decree Instead of Law
Is Typically Rooseveltian.

Ey the Associated Press.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, July "a.
Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg. Re-
publican, of Michigan issued q pre-
pared statement today criticizing
President Roosevelt's executive order
placing postmasters under civil serv-
ice rs "a neat scheme to give life
jobs to existing Farley incumbents." :"
"TypicaIly Rooseveltian Is the fact
that this. thing Is done by executive
order on the eve Of an election, rather
than by legislation. Thus it can be
changed again any time the White
House nods," Vandenberg said.
"The entire post Office system
should be put on the basis of COM
petitive examinations wherever exist
ing terms of political incumbents ex-
pire. The fact that previous
Republican administrations have
failed this fortnight formula is be-
side the present point. It does not
excuse sham reform today"

Governor Urges Unity in Recovery

Last Night.
Hdndon tert Page A-6.J
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,

otau correspondent OF The Star.
TOPEKA, Kans., July 24.-Gov. ALI
M. Landon, Republican nominee for
President, acclaimed by millions Of
his followers, who had only praise
for his speech Of acceptance, got down
to business today outlining with his
campaign manager, John Hamilton,
his future course. The Governor
would not amplify his discussion Of
the farm problem, in which he
pledged cash benefit payments to the
farmers, nor would he discuss other
subjects more fully. He plans to make
further campaign speeches dealing
separately and in detail with the farm
problem, the merit system, taxation
and budget balancing and Government
waste, reciprocal trade agreements,
the currency and other important
subjects after his conference with
Hamilton. 1t is expected that some
announcement will be made regard
ing his coming swing into the East.
Messages Pour In.
Thousands of kilograms and mes
sages poured in on the Governor today
congratulating him on his address
last night, in which he called united
American citizenry to turn the coun-
try to recovery and prosperity along
American lines, with freedom of op-
portunity for all, and demanded that
the 'fumbling" of the New Deal ad-
ministration with recovery be ended.
Senator Arthur M. Vandenberg of
Michigan, who was a potential candi-
date for the presidential nomination
and whose selection as running mate
for Landon was ardently advocated at
the Republican National Convention,
is coming here to confer with Gov.
Landon early next week. Early today
Harry F. Guggenheim of the Guggen-
helm Foundation conferred with the
Republican candidate fo three-quar-
ters of an hour
Urges United Nation.
Gov. Landon stands today commit
ted to the proposition that all Amer
leans must go forward together for
permanent recovery.
THE time has come to pull to-
gether." he said, addressing a huge
crowd which hung upon his words
last night as he formally accepted
the Presidential nomination.
If we are to go forward perma-
nently, it must be with a united
Nation-not with a people torn by
appeals to prejudice and divided by
class feeling"
And so the Republican candidate
lifted the gage flung down by Presi-
dent Roosevelt in his speech accepting
the Democratic nomination in Phila-
delphia-a speech which has been in
terpreted as arraying class against
class.
The Republican candidate stands
committed also to the proposition that
the American form of Government
must endure with powers divided be-
tween the States and the Federal
Government, and that there must be
no usurpation of powers by the execu-
tive branch of the Federal Govern
ment
He stands committed, too, to the
proposition that those who need re-
lief in this country must have it. He
said:
'Let me emphasize that, while We
propose to follow policy of economy
in Government expenditures, those
who need relief will get it.

u. s. TAKES SUIT
TO SUPREME COURT
Attacks Ruling by Appellate
Body in Holding Com
pany Case.

Attacking the ruling of the United
States Court of Appeals for the Dis
trict, the Government today filed with
the United States Supreme Court a
petition for writs of certiorari in the
holding company suits brought by the
North American Co. and the Ameri-
can Water Works & Electric Co.
against the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The two cases were among seven
brought in this Jurisdiction, but in
which action was stayed by the Dis
trict Court after Attorney General
Cummings had made a personal ap-
peal for holding the suits in allegiance
until a decision could be reached In
the Electric Bond & Share case filed
in New York.
Subsequently, however. the Appeals
Court over-ruled the District Court
stay in the two cases specified. The
Attorney Generals contention that
the issues were the same in these
cases as in that Of the Electric Bond
81 Share Co. was refuted in the Cir
cult Courts opinion, and it was stated
that companies involved should be
allowed their own opportunity for
court settlement.
Government Argument.
In presenting the petitions today
the Government advanced the follow
ing argument as its first reason for
granting the writs:
THE Court of Appeals for the Dis
trict Of Columbia has decided q ques-
ton of far-reaching importance af-
fecting procedure in the Federal
courts. The Court of Appeals has
held that a Federal court is without
discretion to stay its own proceedings
pending the final disposition of an
other suit involving similar issues Of
law and fact instituted in the same
or another Federal court. 1t has
held, in effect, that power to grant
such a stay does not exist unless the
issues and parties in both suits are
identical and the disposition Of one
suit will render the other res adju-
dicata. However wasteful of the time
and labor of an already overburdened
court trials of numerous cases in
volving substantially similar issues
may be, the trial court is deprived
of the right in the exercise OF its
