Letters 10 Depositors
Present Plan 10 End
Bank Receivership
Shareholder Committee
Of United Stotes Sovinqs
Asks Claim Assignments

Depositors Of the United States
Savings Bank today are receiving
letters from the Shareholder Com
mittee Of the bank, headed by Wade
H. Cooper, former president, pre-
senting the plan for early termina-
ton Of the receivership.
Depositors are being furnished
assignments Of claim" whereby
they are asked to assign 70 the
Shareholders Committee all assets
Of the bank over and above . Der
cent.
The plan, which previously had
been explained In detail BY Re-
ceiver Frederick J. Young IN
communication TO the depositors,
provides that the depositors get 3
per cent on their dividends of 100
cents on the dollar.
The Shareholders Committee has
established an Office at 2100 Four
teenth street NV, where Wilbur
H. Zepp, former vice president of
the bank, now member Of the
committee, Is ready to explain fur
ther details Of the plan.
Would Terminate Litigation.
II the depositors agree to the
proposal they will receive 3 per
cent soon, all pending litigation
Will be ended and the receivershio
can be terminated.
In their letter to depositors, the
shareholders point out that since
the closing Of the bank, which oc-
CURED eight years ago, the depositors
have been paid, or there is available
for payment to them. the full amount
OF their deposits. The shareholders.
however, not only have received
nothing since the closing Of the
bank, but also each shareholder has
lost the entire amount Of his In
vestment."
See Assets Reduced.
There Is dispute as to whether
the depositors should receive interest
at the rate of 6 per cent out of the
remaining assets or whether these
assets belong to the shareholders.
II the shareholders succeed in liti-
CATION which has been pending sew
eral years, the depositors will re-
ceive nothing further. In any event.
If the litigation continues, 1t will be
several years before the receiver
would make any payments. Mean
while, the assets are being reduced
by the expenses OF litigation. Fur
ther, even If the receiver should
prevail In the court of last resort
In this litigation, it Is doubtful
whether the ultimate realization
would be sufficient to pay the full
amount Of the interest which is
claimed on behalf Of the depositors.
The letter further points out that
the purpose of the compromise"
plan is to pay the depositors the
per cent, which "in substance liz
an amount of interest which will be
equal to or in excess Of the average
rate of interest paid to savings de-
positors during the period Of the
receivership by going banks in the
District of Columbia" Furthermore
it is explained that the percentage
obviously will be in excess Of that
paid on commercial accounts, which
in the absence Of special agreement
is nothing"
Counsel for the Stockholderg Com
mittee are William z. Richardson
and Norman Fischer.

Carl Lovedoy, l9, Seen
As Biggest Threat to
Champion Freeman

The badminton player most likely
to halt the reign of National Cham
pion Dave Freeman today entered
the Atlantic Coast tournament
scheduled for Kensington Armory
this week end. He is Carl Loveday,
the countrys fourth ranking bad
mintoner, who learned the game on
the Pacific Coast, but who now
lives in Montclair, N. j.
Only 10 years old, Loveday has
been playing badminton for four
years and last year reached the
semif1nals of the nationals at Sc
attic. where he lost to Freeman
But tournament records show that
he gave the champ the hardest fight
of any competitor, not excepting the
losing finalist.
In addition to being remarkably
fast and having near-perfect foot
work. Loveday is noted for his
comeback qualities. Recently, in
the Pennsylvania open tournament
he was down, 0-10 to Ken Qulgley
in the deciding game, but rallied
to win, 17-15. Quigley, well known
to Washington fans and the third
nationally ranked racketer, already
had beaten Walter Kramer, former
national champion, this season.
Both Quigley and Kramer are
expected to be on hand for the tour
nament, starting Friday. Entries
from other outstanding players of
all sections of the country are pour
