German Bank Funds
Seized in Suit by
Dispossessed Jew
Refugee in Chicago Gets
Writ for Impounding
Of Deposits
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, April 29.-Credits and
funds of the Deutsche Bank of Ber-
lin, Germany, on deposit in nine
Chicago banks were impounded to-
day as result of writ Of attach
ment and garnishment obtained in
Circuit Court by Jacob Chankin,
b2-year- -old Jewish refugee.
Chankin's attorney, Sol A. Hoff-
man. said his client was once a pros
porous fruit importer in Berlin whose
deposits in the Deutsche Bank had
been confiscated by the NaZi gov
eminent before he and his wife fled
Germany last fall.
The suit alleged Chankin's busi-
ness was valued at $250,000 in 1888
before the Nazi government began
to assess penalties against his de-
posits. Last October, the suit con-
tended, a 81 per cent penalty was
levied in retaliation for the fatal
shooting of an attache of the Ger
man Embassy in Paris by Jewish
youth, leaving Chankin virtually
without funds.
Hoffman said he was empowered
by law to proceed against the
Deutsche Bank because it surren-
dered Chankin's deposits to the gov
ernment but actually still had the
funds in its possession because it was
q corporation under the control of
the Reichsbank, or official state
bank.
Hoffman said the amount of money
1mpounded by the suit had not been
estimated.

Sage and Soil
BY Mrs. Paul Schdller

1t seems that everything is
just right these days.
There are young onions, not
strong, unlady-like things that
r. spoken of in whispers.
The radiSheS are Succulent
little nothings that add so mucn
to meals that might otherwise
seem flat in spring.
The chard is just right for
every dish in which you wish
to use greens.
The peas are podding.
Once again I am glad I can
dig around in the soil.
This week I found myself
lamenting the fact that a small
flour sitter I have used for the
past 16 years just broke down.
The new one is good enough
in it's way, but it is an awk-
ward piece of machinery in my
hands.
Benefits are interesting bits
of experience. To the people
who helped us-thanks!
The little girls who will bene-
fit from the funds of the dance
will have a glorious three-day
vacation in a All club camp.
I have some happy neighbors
the past few days.
Their children and grand
children have come home to Wis
it.
It almost means meeting a
brand new person, after a boy
or girl has had a years exper-
fence in school, training of some
other kind, or employment
away from home. All of these
things have made their i'm
prints on these fine young
people.
There was a brand-new
grandson-a new and thrilling
experience Cor his granddad.

along when you visit these lively az

On such occasions, there is al

things are happening one can find
subjects for pictures. Especially do
these events offer opportunities for
