BANK RECEIVER
CUTS EXPENSES

Frederick J. Young, receiver
for three of Washington'S closed
banks, the Bank of BrightWood,
the international Exchange Bank
and the U. S. Savings Bank, has
combined the office of the receiver
ship in the old U. S. Savings Bank
building at Fourteenth and U
Streets, where the affairs OF the
closed institutions will be carried
on.
This move will reduce expenses
and make possible the sale or
rental of the old international EX-
change and the Bank OF Bright
wood buildings.
The Bank of Brightwood was
placed in receivership July 13,
1882, and has paid SIS per cent to
depositors. The International EX-
change Bank which was placed IN
receivership July IA, 1882, has paid
81 per cent, and the U. S. Savings,
which was placed in receivership
February 10, 1884, has paid 80 per
cent.
Further disbursements are ex-
pected from all three recelvershlps
and it is understood efforts are
being made now to pay the final
10 per cent to United States Say
Ings Bank depoSitors.

Piping Rock Horse ShOW
To Hold Moore Memorial
Fans of Turf
To Honor
Leader
SHOW TOMORROW
By HARRY COSTELLO

10y lfAASASA VIVA A1NAO
Wherever in America the horse
is known, Frederic P. Moore Is re-
membered as one Of Americas
outstanding sportsmen.
For many years he was treas
urer of the Piping Rock Club and
the Piping Rock Horse Show AS
ISOLATION. He was Stalwart fig
ure in Long Island sporting circles,
a gracious host and welcomed
guest in Long Island society. Al
ways he was the gentleman and
the sportsman.
Frederic Moore passed away
early this year. The foxhuntin'
people of the nation probably
mourn him more than any other
group outside his immediate fam
lily, for they knew him and loved
him. He championed the cause
of the working hunter in the horse
show, and true to the sporting
code he was charitable, tolerant,
kind, thoughtful of others and un.
ostentatious in victory, courageous
in defeat.
COMPLETE ARRANGEMENTS
It is good to know that his
mates of the Piping Rock Club
have completed arrangements for
the Frederic P. Moore Memorial
Trophy, a prize which will be
awarded annually in the Piping
Rock Horse Show. Most appropri-
ately, the Frederic P. Moore Mem.
orial Trophy will go to the win
ner of the Class for Working
Hunters: he would want it so, for
he loved those tried and true ami
mails who carry the load in the
hunting field, and carry it with
fortitude and with honor.
The thirty-fifth annual Piping
Rock Horse Show, which will be
held at Locust Valley, L. l., from
Wednesday to Saturday, lists
many prizes and trophies Of I'M
usual distinction, but one which
will attract the attention of sports
men in the Virginia-M maryland fox
huntin' area is the Frederic P.
Moore Memorial Trophy, and his
closest friends, the men and
women who donated the trophy,
will soon discover that this prize
is one Of the most coveted the
Piping Rock Horse Show offers.
PRIZE TO OWNER
Incidentally, a prize of more
than ordinary distinction annually

the teams fourteenth and brought
to light the talent of Willie Bote-

THINK OF FOOTBALL
The Hillcrests have football in
their minds next. Private Bendure
plans to start practice sessions
within the next two weeks, and
will have Willie Boteler, Harmon
Boteler, AL Cohill and William
Mosley as experienced players.
The remainder of the lineup will
be developed from the club proper.
Incidentally, the Hillcrests will
be known as the Anacostia Motors
both in football and baseball from
now on. Frank Small, local sports
man and president of the Ana

ali interest in the boys and has
decided to back them to the limit.

NEW HOME BUILDING IS TO BE STIMULATED

For the purpose of aiding pros pective home owners in Douglas, group of citizens got together last night and discussed details of the proposition.
 Plans whereby the building of small cottages could be expedited by relieving the future owners of the details connected with getting the units under way was one of the principal points considered.
 The homes can be built under the Federal Housing Administration and, with the assistance of local sponsors, the future owner could gain possession with his first rent ,installment when the house was ready for occupancy.
 With the city's free lots available and FILA and city loans, prospec- tive home builders will be able to begin owning their homes in Doug las with their first payment which will be like rent

Dele gate Dimond supported enactment of the bill as introduced in the House, but objected to approval of the bill as amended in the Senate on the score that the Senate amend ments were not in harmony with the expressed desires and interests of most of the native reindeer own CTS.

SALMON PROTECTION

In conformity with his plan as outlined in speech made on the floor of the House some days ago, Delegate Dimond introduced bill on June IT to protect the salmon fishery of Alaska against the Jap anese or other foreign nationals.
 The bill follows the Anti-smug- gling Act of 1885 in it's plan to main tain jurisdiction of the United States over the waters adjacent to the coast of Alaska to an off-shore distance of 12 nautical miles. And in addition it would give the Pres ident the right to declare salmon fishery enforcement areas in aNy of the waters adjacent to the Alaska coast of the international boundary between Russia and AL aska where the water is less than 100 fathoms deep. In any such salmon fishery law-enforcement area any vessels found lowering, to- gether with nets and gear, which appear to be engaged in fishing for Alaska salmon may be seized and forfeited. The proposed law also provides that any salmon taken or packed in contravenation to its pro- visions may be seized and forfeited if brought into the United States.
 CLAIMS
 One section of the bill provides that if the vessels of another na- tion are used in the taking of AL aska salmon, claim for the value cf the pack shall be made upon that nation and if payment is not made, the United States will collect such amount by withholding it from pay ments due that nation by the Unit ed States from any account. In the case of Japan this deduction could properly be made from moneys due that nation under the seal treaty

LIGHT PLANT TAXES

In order to provide equitable equalization of tax burdens on light plants in Alaska, on June IT Dele gate Dimond introduced a bill in the House to amend that part of the Federal tax law of Alaska which imposes a tax on electric light plants furnishing light or power for sale. The present tax is $500 per year without regard to the size of the plant, and some of the smaller plants with limited market for their power find it impossible to pay this tax.
 Under the proposed legislation electric light plants should pay the same graduated tax which is i'm posed by Federal law on mercantile establishments, which is dependent on the gross business done. The li- cense tax under this plan would be as follows:
