SAVINGS
CASE WONBY BANK
Court Rules Trustees Are
to Return $454, 900
in Bonds.

Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat Of
District Court ruled today that the
trustees of the Postal Savings System
must return to the insolvent Wood
lawn Trust & Savings Bank OF Chi
cago approximately s454,000 in bonds
posted by the bank to secure pos
tai savings funds on deposit when
the bank closed in June, 1892.
The Government agency is expect
ed to appeal.
The ruling was the first in a local
court on secured deposit case in
volving a State bank. However, q
number Of similar suits involving Ma
tional banks, both here and in other
cities, have been decided in District
Court in favor of the banks and
against various other governmental
agencies.
Bank Taken Over in 1892.
The WoodlaWn bank was taken over
by the Illinois auditor of public &C
counts in June, 1882, and placed in
the hands of a receiver. At that time,
there were S454,000 in postal savings
funds on deposit in the bank, which
had been depository Of the postal
savings system since 1911. This
money was secured by an equal
amount of collateral placed by the
bank with the postal savings trus-
tees, who were the Postmaster Cen
eral, the Secretary of the Treasury
and the Attorney General. The treas
urer of the United States was treas
urer Of the Board of Trustees.
When the bank closed the trustees
retained possession Of the collateral
to reimburse themselves for the loss
Of their deposits.
The bank receiver filed suit here,
contending the bank had no author
ity under its charter to pledge the
bonds to secure the deposits.
Court Takes Banks View.
After a trial, in which Attorneys
ILewellyn A. Luce Of Washington and
Homer D. Dimes of Chicago appeared
for the receiver, Chief Justice Wheat
adopted the banks view and indi-
Gated he would sign a decree in its
favor
The decree is expected to allow a
deduction from the full amount OF
the deposit, representing a 80 per
cent dividend already paid to general
depositors by the Chicago institu-
ton. The Postal Savings System
probably Will be ordered. however, to
reimburse the bank for all interest
collected from the bonds since 1882.

STEEL OPERATIONS
UP TO 36 PER CENT
Level Is Highest Attained by
Industry Since November,
Says Magazine.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, March 31.-Reflect-
ing slight seasonal demand, steel
making operations have advanced to
36 per cent Of capacity, the highest
level attained since the second week
Of last November, Daily Metal Trade
said today.
Further increase is expected over
coming weeks though the spring up
turn is developing at a disappointing
rate" it reported. Miscellaneous
manufacturing consumers are being
forced to enter the market for sup
plies, with their inventories depleted.
"Automotive tonnage is small, but
hopes are held for some pickup next
month. The outlook for active de-
mand from the railroads is not en-
couraging. Seasonal building expan-
sion is being reflected in a slight
squirt in orders from that field"

Follow ny q month Of seasonal ex-

depressing way to start the New Year
but to alleviate this e little we hope
to offer 9 few suggestions viii CHI will
be Of help. We have been asked to
publish a series Of ta ks on the
budget, how to make one and how to
follow it.
First Of all q budget is not an
expense account. 1t is plan Of
future spending only and because it is
q plan it must be flexible enough to
allow for unusual expenses which occur.
No budget plan published ever
hope to fit the needs Of particular
family. To be successful it must be
used only as a guide.
In our December 22nd issue Mrs.
Brewer informs US that the average
income for family Of four is $l34
a month. We will then form our budget
plan on the basis Of these figures.
Before any plan can be made we must
know how much we spend in q month for
various things. The easiest way to do
this is to jot down each item Of ex-
penditure for & months time. With
this list, group the various items
FILLING under specific heads. For
exc nple cigarettes might be termed
en- incidental or miscellaneous expense
or mi ght be termed anus oment or recre-
alton. The headings for your expenses
matter very little as long os they are
