Four Actions Started in
Claims Court Before

Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The door was locked today OH per-
sons seeking damages from the Gov.
ernment for its refusal to pay its
obligations in gold.
The Court OF Claims reported four
gold suits were entered just before the
deadline More than a score of legal
actions have been instituted since the
Supreme Courts famous gold decision
of last February.
Three hours after the Court of
Claims closed at / pm. yesterday
bondholder asked District Supreme
Court to direct the Secretary of the
Treasury to pay gold for $4,000 in
Liberty bonds.
Colombia Firm Appeals.
Earlier in the day the Compania de
Inversiones Internacionales of Colom-
bia appealed in the highest tribunal
from a New York State court decision
that it could recover only the face
value of s3135 in gold bonds from the
Industrial Mortgage Bank of Finland.
The Government cannot be sued
without its consent, and an act Of
Congress last session set the January
! deadline on gold suits.
At the eleventh hour Otis Beall
Kent. a Washington attorney. filed a
petition for payment of a 100000
Government bond in gold or the equiv
a'ent amount of devalued currency.
The latter is estimated at $l69 for
each gold dollar
Before filing his suit Kent presented
his 100000 bond to the registrar Of
the Treasury. but was refused pay
ment in gold or the pre- e-devalued dol
lar equivalent-Sl69,00 900.

Recently Herr Goebbels made a
speech before an enthusiastic audi
ence in which he admitted the hard
ships. The German nation has to go
through many more hardships before
1t sees its wishes accomplished. He
stated: I'VE have no butter and only
little meat. but we have airplanes and
tanks. 1t Is not for fun that we are
building them. There are still a few
soft individuals who complain that
they have not enough to eat But in
the evening when they hear the dron-
ming of the motors of our bombers
they must be happy to say, These are
German airplanes' and their hunger
should thus be stilled. The Reich is
finally independent and strong" And
the 10000 men and women in the
audience appla with frenzy.
When a few months ago Ambassa-
dor Dodd told Hitler he was suspected
in America of wanting to spread
Nazism throughout the world in the
same manner Moscow wants to spread
communism. the Reichsfuehrer shrug-
ged his shoulders with contempt.
How childish" he replied. we are
not as pusillanimous as that. Ma
tional socialism makes nation
strong. We do not want to serve tn s
kind of tonic to any other nation"

AT TLORTON URGED
Reimbursement Plan for
Federal Prisoner Upkeep
Studied by King.

An instance of financial inequity
between the Federal and District Gov
ernments in the maintenance at Lor-
ton Reformatory of prisoners who are
convicted here of purely Federal Of
fenseS is being looked into by Chair
man King of the Senate District
Committee.
The Senator pointed out today that
when persons are convicted in the
States of violating statutes that are
wholly Federal and apply to the
eral penitentiaries. Declaring the
District should be on basis of
equality with the States in this re-
spect, King took the view that when
similar convictions occur here some
adjustment should be made by the
Federal Government to cover the cost
of maintaining such prisoners in a
District penal institution.
Prettyman Studies Situation.
At Kings request, Corporation
Counsel E. Barrett Prettyman is
studying the question to see what
legislation should be suggested. The
Utah Senator said he thought the
Government should be billed for this
expense and expressed the view it
would result in substantial saving
to the District.
In a New Year message to the people
of the District, Senator King predicted
a marked improvement in economic
and financial conditions, here as well
as elsewhere. The Senator declared
Washington has one of the best city
governments in the country.
Sees School Need.
In listing some of the objectives that
should be sought this year, the Senator
mentioned the need for additional
school buildings and highway and
sewer improvements.
Every effort should be made to solve
the city's traffic problems in 1886. he
said He suggested the need for more
garages to relieve street congestion and
thereby reduce accidents.

ARMOUR IS NAMED
IN SUIT FILED HERE
Meat Packing Firm Accused of
Consent Decree Violation
by Stakeholder

Armour g. Co. of Illinois, one of
the Nations largest meat-packlng
houses, was charged yesterday after
noon in District Supreme Court of
violating the packers consent decree
of 1920, which enjoined certain mo-
nopolistic practices.
The allegation was made in a pc
tition filed by Fred j. Leuckel OF
Trenton, N. j., one of the companys
five largest stockholders, who sought
an order directing the company, its
officers and directors to divest them
selves of their allegedly improper
holdings.
Leuckel said he brought his pc
tition as a taxpayer, a stockholder
and friend of the court. If the
present holdings of the company were
reported to the Attorney General. he
said, it might be found to be operating
in restraint of trade.
The company is violating the con-
sent decree, Leuckel contended, by
directly or indirectly controlling pub
lie stockyard market companies and
stockyard terminal railroads. He
asked that the company and its Of
ficials make a complete disclosure
of their holdings to the court.
The packers consent decree was
entered in settlement of antitrust
proceedings brought by the Federal
Government against five large pack
ing concerns.
