piles of the founding fathers Of our
Republic"

Seeks LIST Of Jobs

Director william z. Leahy Of Dis.
trict selective service today appealed
to Washington employers who need

with the draft unemployment Office
in the old National Guard Armory
on Pennsylvania avenue.
"All cases of unemployed District

cilitates cooperation with employers
to make intelligent distribution Of
this additional manpower for ma
tional defense production. The first
and important obligation Of the en-
ployer is to advise the office fully

former position or position of like
seniority, status and pay. many men
completing service in Regular Army,
Navy and Marine Corps, as we'll ~
selectees, were unemployed when
they began training.

Insolvenf Bank
Must Pay Tax
Liability for D. c.
Levy Upheld in
WurdeIICuse

In case that may establish i'm.
portant precedents as to the tax
liability Of insolvent banks, the Su-
preme Court refused today to review
decision of the United States
Court of Appeals Of the District
which requires that Justus S. War;
dell, receiver for the District Ma
tional Bank, pay the District busi-
ness privilege tax on rentals derived
from bank properties administered
by the receiver
In denying the review, the Su-
preme Court left the decision Of
the Court of Appeals in effect
The District National Bank as
sessment, amounting to about $500,
was challenged by Mr.. Wardell, who
contended that the tax--Which has
since been repealed-did not apply
to him as the receiver for an in
solvent national bank and that fur
ther to pay the tax would diminish
the assets of the bank and make
that much less available for cred.
itors.
Important Precedent Involved.
The receiver was upheld in Dis
trict Court but the Court of Appeals
reversed the verdict. ruling that in
solvent national banks in receiver
ship are exempt from Federal tax
alton only In urging review by
the Supreme Court, the receiver
said the question presented 'is Of
great importance" not only in the
District but elsewhere, as the ulti-
mate decision would set an i'm
portant precedent in taxing in.
solvent banks.
1t was pointed out also that the
Court of Appeals decision is being
used as a precedent for collecting
other local taxes from those banks
which failed to open after the holi-
day in 1888. The District govern.
ment opposed the view.
In another case. Leroy Abbott,
former filling station proprietor OF
1893 Meridian place NV, moved
step nearer the recovery of $50 500
which he said disappeared from a
safe deposit box in the Takoma Park
Md Bank, when the Supreme
Court refused to review a decision
of the Maryland Court of Appeals
holding him entitled TO reimburse
ment for the cash, which included
fifty ST 900 gold certificates.
Discovers $4,000 Loss.
According to Mr.. Abbotts testi-
mony, when the suit was tried in
Westminster, Md, he placed the
certificates in the box with some
other cash in 1886. When he first
discovered the s5O00o in a sealed
envelope, given him 10 years be-
fore by his aunt. Mrs. Caroline
Points of Washington. who re-
marked that the contents might be
important later on in life" On
December IA, 1887, he continued, he
found the box and money were
gone.
Bank attorneys argued that as
gold certificates had beenscalled in
by the Government in 1888. they
were illegal currency when Mr.. ABB
bott placed them in the safe de-
posit box and that he consequently
had no property right in them. Tho
trial court ruled for the plaintiff.
however, and the Court Of Appeals
sustained this finding, saying that
the bank was conducting a safe de-
post business and could not deny
the right of the owner Of the Ger.
tificates.

meeting was taken over by Inspector
l.. A. Hince, one Of the group sent
to London, who will be in charge of
the two-day course. He explained
the basic responsibility OF police is
protection of life, limb and prop
erty, and whenever these are threat
ened, as in an air raid, police are
expected to take charge.

tives police are of greatest value
during an air raid as Symbol of

Drug Stores Offered
As First-Aid Stations
For Emergencies
Commissioner Young,
Defense Co-ordinotor,
Accepts Proposal

Commissioner Young. co-ordina-
tor for District civilian defense. to-
day accepted the offer of the Com
mittee on Civilian Defense Of the
District Pharmaceutical Association
to make available the 379 drug stores
OF the city as emergency aid sta
tions in case of civilian crisis.
The suggestion was transmitted
to Commissioner Young by w. Paul
Briggs. dean Of the School of Phar-
macy at George Washington Univer-
sity, chairman of the committee.
In offering the drug store facilities
the committee pointed out that the
drug stores are strategically located.
and open during the greater part of
each day. 1t was pointed out that
many such stores operate delivery
trucks which in an emergency could
be converted TO serve as ambulances.
In addition. it was said, each drug
store has at least one telephone,
which would provide communication
service with central headquarters,
as we'll as with doctors. nurses and
hospitals. The committee said most
drugstores Also have radio receiv-
ing sets
There are about $50 practicing
pharmacists in the city, the report
declared These are acquainted
with the use of emergency drugs
and the application of surgical dress
ings, and are familiar with the basic
procedures of emergency care of
sick and wounded, as well as the
needs Of physicians.
The drugstores are in a position
to distribute defense information,
the report said. 1t was pointed out
that most types of gas masks re-
quire recharging with chemicals, and
that such supplies would be avail
able in the durgstores along with
the pharmacists knowledge Of the
chemicals
Storage of large supplies of
emergency drugs in central depot
would present a considerable hazard
in the event Of bombings, in the
opinion of the committee, and de-
centralization Of these stocks,
through distribution to drug stores,
would prevent major losses.
