5000 10 Be Listed
For Park Savings
Special Dividend
Complete Audit Made
~Of 49, 900 Accounts
By Special Master

About 5000 depositors Of the
closed Park Savings Bank will be
recommended to District Court for
share in the special dividend to
be paid those who retained money
in the bank from the date its char
ter expired August 80, 1929, 1t was
learned today.
The recommendation probably will
be made to court late this month
by. James G. Wilkes, special master
appointed by the court to supervise
a careful audit Of accounts for this
purpose.
Mr.. Wilkes explained notices had
been sent to approximately $4,000
depositors notifying them to pre-
sent claims. The special master
heard about 5000 persons who
wished to clear up some point about
their accounts. About 125 were able
to present evidence establishing
their claim to part of the dividend,
although they had not been on the
special list prepared from data in
the bank. Old records had to be
investigated to substantiate these
claims.
$4,000 Accounts Audited.
The special master and his au-
ditors at an Office in Police Court
Building made a complete audit of
more than $4,000 accounts in the
bank, owners of which appeared
to have some claim to the special
dividend. This dividend is payable
as result of a court decision hold
ing the directors liable as trustees
of the bank when the charter ex-
pired in 1929 The directors finally
paid $5OO,OO0 to settle all claims.
OF this $15OO00 went into the gen.
eral fund for dividend to all
creditors of the bank, and the re-
naming $350,0OO will be used first
to pay expenses of litigation and
other expenses, and to pay special
dividend to deporitors who main
tanned a balance in the bank be-
tween August 80, 1929, and the time
the bank closed in 1888
Details Of how much each de-
positor will receive has to be worked
out after approval of the recon-
mended schedule to the court, and |
allowance of claims. Among the |
claims are those by the depositors' |
committee, the counsel for the
committee, William E. Richardson !
and E. Hilton Jackson. and the dis
bursing agent, John F. Moran, who
also Is receiver of the bank How |
much these allowed claims will be
cannot be disclosed until the special
masters report is submitted to the
court.
Dep0sitors to Be Notified.
After the report goes to the court,
the procedure, it Is understood, will |
be for the court to notify all the |
5000 depositors that the case Is
before the court, and they may be
heard If they care to appear. It |
Is believed, however, the special
master has cleared 5up all these
cases, and the time taken by the
court in handling the matter may
be reduced to a comparatively short |
time. All phases of the matter
must be approved finally by the
court.
The accounts then will be turned
over to the disbursing agent, John
F. Moran, for calculation Of the
dividend, drawing of the checks and
distribution of the dividend.

LISTEN TO THIS
By Hobart T. Mitchell

On the Soil of Germany: At the
eleventh hour of the eleventh day
of the eleventh month of 1918, the
order came to cease firing. The 92nd
Division of Negro troops stood at
Thanh and before Metz, in advance
of the progress of troops of all
America. The ground which they
trod had not been occupied by other
than German troops in 40 years.
The Elephant and the Donkey:
The elephant was first used as SYM
Dol of the Republican party by its
originator, Thomas Mast, in Har-
per's Weekly of November z, 1874.
Mast had created the donkey as the
symbol Of the Democratic party
four years previously.
Kentucy's Soldiers: Kentucky had
the greatest number of Negro
troops (23,7O3) in the Civil War.
October IL, 1892: Pedro Alfonso
Nino, Negro, was pilot of one
of the famous three vessels of Co.
lumbus when he landed upon Amer
lean shores.
Prohibited: The enlistment of
white men in colored regiments is
prohibited by implication by Sec
ton 253 and Section 282 of the
Code of the Laws of the United
States-Title 10-Army.

Brotherhood

Brotherhood lived is born of love
Love that is born of inspiration,
For mankind stays moulded
together
When shown there's no recession.
Keep constantly before US
Our duty to our fellowmen,
Each day be a crusader
Against a host in the DEVILS den.
Be true worker in the field,
Take all men into the fold,
For Loves all embracing protection
Makes souls as pure as gold.
"Let your lights so shine,"
That others will want to be
Around you at all times,
Since right examples make
others see.
Be inspired to help your brother.
Let him see you really mean it,
For words don't mean anything
If demonstration can't in it fit.
Brotherhood is sorely needed today.
World events make the dove of
peace
Flutter bewilderingly here and
there,
AS hatred appears to be on the
increase.
