To Knead Dough.

For the first kneading the board
Is lightly Toured. When kneading
begins the dough is rather sticky,
but this dose not indicate that too
little flour has been used. As knead-
ing continues the dough becomes
smooth and satiny. This is due to
the development of the gluten which
helps build good dough structure.

KIDNAPPING PROBE
TO Be CONTINUED
Attorney General Cummings
/. congratuIates Those
Who Took Part.

Attorney General Cummings today
announced that investigation Of the
Cash kidnapping case in Florida will
be continued by the Federal Bureau
Of Investigation and that in the
meantime q conference Of Federal and
State officials will be held to deter
mine prosecutive jurisdiction.
In a telegram to y. Edgar Hoovsr,
Director of the r. B. l.. MIR. Cum
mings congratulated the G-men on q
brilliant piece Of work" and asked
Mr.. Hoover to convey to States At
torney G. A. Worley, Sheriff d. c..
Coleman and other local oficers and
citizens the departments thanks for
their whole hearted and "indefat-
igable assistance"
Solved In IL Days.
Mr.. Cummings expressed gratifica-
ton that within IL days Of the kid
naping OF little James Cash "the body
has been found, the ransom has been
recovered and the recipient of the
ransom has confessed his part in the
crime"
Since the Cash child was not trans
ported across State lines and none OF
the ransom notes were sent through
the mails, he said, 1t. will be neces-
sary to discuss with State and local
authorities the next legal steps in the
case. The Lindbergh law applies only
when there is interstate transporta-
ton of the victim or use of interstate
methods Of communication in de-
manding ransom.
Text Of Telegram.
The Attorney Generals telegram to
Mr.. Hoover follows:
II congratulate you and your as
sociates most heartily on your success
in the Cash kidnapping case. 1t was
brilliant piece Of work. Please
convey my sincere appreciation and
thanks to States Attorney G. A. Wor-
ley and to D. G. Coleman, sheriff of
Dade County, and their assistants
who co-operated so indefatigably with
you. I also commend the excellent
work of your assistant, Clye A. Tolson.
and Inspector e. J. Connelley and
Special Agent Myron Gurnea and
other r. B. I. men who worked on
the case.
Il desire also to express to citizens
of the community my profound ap-
probation for the thorough and gen.
erous manner in which they con-
tributed to the solution of the case.
The result is a striking illustration
of what can be accomplished through
cooperation of Federal and local Of
ficers. with wholehearted aid of the
public"
Evening star., 1938-06-09


Of the banks and trust companies in
the District is strong. both from the
standpoint of liquidity and their ca
pacity to make sound loans to busi-
ness, he said. Deposits OF all kinds
were $685.. .000. 900 on May is, 1887, and
1928, 900, 900 on May Is, 1898, a de-
cline Of $l1 100000 during the year.
The decline in deposits is rejected in
the security holdings of the banks,
which also showed a decrease of
ll, 100000 from the previous year.
The primary and secondary reserve
position of these institutions on May
Is, 1888, indicated that Washington
banks are prepared to meet all sound
business demands. he added.
Charges on Lending Hit
Mr. Groom asserted that charges
that the banks are unwilling to loan
money are not based On facts. Com
petition for secured and unsecured
loans among public and private lend
ing agencies, he said, has brought for
ward the question of how to lend
funds both safely and profitably. The
implied blame placed on bankers for
the failure OF business borrowing to
expand is unjustifed. The funda-
mental cause is not the lack of willing
lenders among the banks, but the lack
OF willing borrowers among prudent
business men because Of their lack of
confidence in the business future.
Banks must have loans in order to
pay expenses but they must have
bankable loans that will be repaid.
Glancing at the national business
picture. Mr.. Groom noted that re-
discount rates have been lowered. re-
discount privileges have been broad
ened, marginal requirements have
been liberalised, gold acquisitions de-
sterilized. reserves reduced, and a
huge spending program has been an
nounced. This Is the administra-
tion's plan Of combating the recess
sion in business and getting the
masses Of unemployed back to work.
Whether the pump-priming program
will be controlling influence on re-
covery remains tb be seen. The plan
is 50 stupendous that its import is
dificult to comprehend, Mr.. Groom
said. e
& Store Sales Down.
Referring again to the Washington
business situation, Mr.. Groom said
department store sales, usually ac-
cepted as the best indication Of re-
tail business, have witnessed some de-
cline. Clearing house figures, which
reflect the volume and velocity Of
business transactions, are lower. al
though the month-to-montht trend this
year, with the exception of February.
has been upward.
Building permits issued in the Dis
trict of Columbia have shown a drop
each week over the same month of
1887, but nearby Virginia and Mary
land communities have been expand
ing rapidly. 1t seems apparent, Mr..
Groom commented, that for various
reasons future residential home con-
struction will see its greatest expan-
sion in areas adjacent to the Capital.
Government pay rolls have been
fairly consistent, though there has
been q drop, the bank official added.
At the change of the fiscal year, June
Evening star., 1938-06-09

80, 1887. there was reduction Of
approximately 1000 employees In the
Federal departments in the District.
This trend continued through Oc-
tober. when the lowest number in
recent years, 1882 were employed.
Since that time there has been
slow but steady increase and at pres
ent there are approximately 113, 900
Federal employees In Washington.
Takes Optimistic View.
In an optimistic view Of the future,
Mr., Groom declared that there Is no
particular reason why conditions in
Washington should be unusually bad,
as it does not appear that earning
power and employment have been af-
fected to any large extent in the
present recession. II would seem that
the Capital is merely following, in
its customary fashion, a reflection of
conditions previously developed In
other parts of the country.
Pointing to the work Of the Dis
trict Bankers Association during the
past year, Mr.. Groom said two out
standing accomplishments had been
q program Of better public relations
and q more scientific approach to
problems of bank management. The
new speakers unit had much to dc
with improving public relations, he
asserted.
In cooperation with the Govern
ment's recovery program the bankers
association participated in co-opera-
tive advertising campaign for loans
under terms Of Title I OF the Federal
Housing Act. The results were out
standing; the banks obtained many
sound loans; real estate was improved
and many jobs were created.
Savings Account Mortality.
During the year the banks found
they were losing good deal of money
in collecting public utility bills, Off
cials Of the companies, upon request,

ton made a survey of the mortality

REVISED MARINE ACT
Seeks Rejection of Conference
Report, Charging Commission
Policy Is Anti-Labor.

Rejection of the conference report
on the bill amending the Merchant
Marine Act of 1886 was asked today
by the Joint Maritime Legislative
Committee. representing maritime
units of the Committee for Industrial
Organization.
Principal objection of the committee,
according to letter sent to members
of Congress, is that the section deal
ing with proposed training of seamen
for the American merchant marine
has been so revised as to allow i'm
mediate introduction of training
system under the Maritime Commits
sion.
Charging that the commission has
adopted an anti-labor policy and
that they are now fully intent on de-
stroying collective bargaining for all
maritime workers." the Legislative
Committee asks that this whole train
ing project be held in allegiance until
further study.
The committee objects also to the
setting up of a special mediation
board for he maritime industry.
