are in reality furthering the OBJ

doing so. we lessen by just so much
the probability of more patients being

FRANKLIN T0PAY
S25O,0DO DIVIDEND
Disbursement of Bank to
Start Tuesday to Certifi-
cate Holders.

Depositors in the former Franklin
National Bank are to receive a divi-
dend of $3.50, 900, which is Is per cent
of the unpaid balance of IS per cent,
according to announcement by the
trustees Of the Franklin Liquidating
Trust.
Payments will start Tuesday morn
ing at the Departmental Bank Build
ing, 1925 Pennsylvania avenue, all de-
positors being required to present
their Certificates of participation" in
order to get their money.
The Is per cent disbursement will
bring total dividends paid since the
bank was closed to 8212 per cent. As
this is not the final dividend, it seems
probable that the depositors even
tually will receive practically 100 per
cent of their original deposits, al
though this statement is not official.
Samuel NJ Thrift, executive Secre-
tary of the Franklin Liquidating
Trust, said today that the Depart
ment Bank Building will be open
from to every business day ex-
cept Saturdays, when office hours will
be from to IL noon.
When the Franklin National Bank
went into the merger which resulted
in the present City Bank, the affairs
of the original bank were placed in
the hands of three trustees, William
F. Kelly. Lindsey p. Rawley and Henry
j. Sterzer.

ran in Police Court today and re-
leased in the custody of a representa-
tive Of the Washington Council of So

The youth, who was committed to

ing Police Court Judge Robert E. Mat
tingly. who sentenced him to serve l20
days on charges of drunkenness and
disorderly conduct, attracted Judge
Curran's attention to his case by plead
ing for his liberty to the four Police
Court judges when they visited Oc-
coquan in q body a week ago.
At that time Starnes had been
placed in solitary confinement by Jail
officials to thwart his several attempts
to escape. Investigation disclosed the

and when Judge Curran received as
surance from the welfare agency of a
job he effected his release.

SECURITIES LAW
INDICTMENT VOID
. ON TECHN|CAL|T|ES
Charges Against Continental
Corp. Men Held Not Spe.
cific Enough.
U. S. WILL TRY AGAIN '
BY APPEAL OR NEW BILL
False Statements Alleged in Value
and Description Of
Property.

Justice Peyton Gordon OF District
Court today held invalid the indict-
ment charging a well-known Wash.
ington attorney and two New Workers
with conspiracy to violate the securi-
ties act Of 1888 in connection with
registration of the Continental Dis.
tillers & importers Corp.
The accused were Dan F. Reynolds,
member Of prominent law firm here:
Harry E. Hanes, general manager Of
the Standard Appraisal Co. of New
York. and Milton Janis. salesman for
q New York stock underwriting con.
Germ.
Although the question of the consti-
tutionality Of the securities act was
raised in the demurrer to the indict-
ment, Justice Gordon decided the case
on purely technical grounds. He held
the true bill did not state the offense
charged with sufficient particularly.
He said 1t failed to set out in full each
of the statements alleged to be false
and also failed to state specifically
what required information was
omitted.
U. s. to Try Again.
Chief Assistant United States At
torney David A. Pine said the Gov
eminent does not intend to drop the
case. Either an appeal will be taken
or a new indictment sought, he said,
adding that it may be decided to pur-
sue both courses.
The argument attacking the indict-
ment was made by Attorney William
E. Leahy. Although the Continental
Distillers g. Importers Corp. never
began operation, some $4,000 Of its
stock was sold, officials declared.
The alleged false statements con-
cerned the value and description Of
the corporations property at Shrews-
bury, Pa. Officials said buildings on
the property were not suited for dis
tilling purposes.
Others We're Directors.
Several prominent persons were di-
rectors of the firm, although not con-
nected in any way with the alleged
conspiracy. They included former
Senator Marion H. Butler of North
Carolina; Harry z. Hull, former COM
missioner of immigration, and the
late DR.. James r. Coupal, private
physician to President Coolidge.
