A former vice president of

Herman Price, made better
than a so per cent gross profit
on the sale of Americans stock
within a month period
when he was still vice preSi-

This was part of the evil
dence brought out yesterday at
a Security and Exchange Com
mission hearing on charges
that a District broker-dealer,
Lloyd, Miller and Co., fraudu-
lently mislead purchasers of
Americans stock and sold the
stock in violation of SEC
registration requirements.
Mr.. Price, an owner of the
Occidental Restaurant which is
not involved in the SEC pro-
ceedings, testified that he ac-
quired American class A COM
mon stock around the time of
the company'S formation in
October, 1860.

Court Keeps
Loan Firm in
ReceiVership

Prince Georges Circuit Court
today denied a motion by Free
State Savings & Loan ASsocla-
ton, Inc, to dismiss a receiver
ship petition filed against it
by the Maryland attorney gen.
eral.
Judge Ralph w. Powers
ordered the hearing to con-
tinue in Upper Marlboro after
James P. Garland, assistant at
torney general, defended the
constitutionality of the States
new savings and loan regula-
tory law.
The validity of the law
was challenged by William E
Brooke, attorney for the savings
and loan association, located al
2310 Iverson street, Hillcrest
Heights. Judge John B. Gray
ir., a week ago froze with
drawals at Free State pending
today's receivership hearing.
Arguing against Mr.. Brooke''
charge that there was no emer'
gency which justified the State''
receivership petition, Mr.. Gar
land said a company statement
of last September 80 noted
loss of $29,383.
He said the States emergency
argument was supported by thu
fact that Free State made
loan of $79,473 to District 1nves
tors Inc, which appeared to bt
the sole controlling stockholde,
of Free State. He said an un
secured loan of $50,000 wa
made to the Silver Spring
Building & Supply Co.
Mr.. Garland added Free
State has not kept adequate
books and records.
This money is in immediatu
jeopardy without control of tn
court" Mr.. Garland said.
He added the State had no
been informed of any Ere,
State reorganization, as re
quired by law. Mr.. Brook
earlier said the firm is unde

SEC Hears Testimony
Of Sovings-Loon Profit

$3.75 to 81 a share for a total
of $40, 0,750.
These were all shares he
bought for $3.50 each or a
total of $13,500, he later told
a reporter. His gross profit on
the 5,400 shares, therefore, was
$3.50 or approximately a 54
per cent return.
In answer to questions by
Assistant Administrator Alex
ander j. Brown, jr., of the
SECS Washington regional Of
flee, Herman Price gave the fol-
lowing information on the
operations of American and
Lloyd, Miller:
He became associated with
American after being ap-
preached by Attorney Marshall
l. Stewart. The formation of
American was Mr.. Stewards
idea.
AS vice president and also as
a director of American he "at-
tended meetings of the di-
rectors and listened to what
was going on" He could not
recall how often the directors
met nor whether the financial
condition of the company was
discussed. He remembered that
a Lou Larsen was president of
the company and that j. Ray
mond Stewart attended COM
pany meetings.
I He was forced to resign as
a director in mid-1961 when a
Maryland State ruling provided
that only Maryland residents
could be directors of the COM
pany. Mr.. Price said he lives
in the District. He was vice
president from the inception of
the company to late last year.
He leases space to Lloyd, Mil
Ter at 1411 Pennsylvania ave-
nue. NV, the building where
his restaurant is located. He
denied having interest in Lloyd,
Miller outside of being a Gus
toner and landlord"
Knew President
/ He knew Howard Mallek,
president of the broker-dealer
firm since November, 1860, for
about a year. In news stories
Mr.. Mallek was identified as
recently as last August as the
president of American. Paul A.
Lukas of Baltimore became
Americans president Decem-
ber 7, 1861.
American turned over 5000
shares of stock to him in ex-
change for a $4,000 mortgage
held by another corporation he
conCrolS on property IN BROOK
lyn, N. Y. The corporation is
1920 Mcdonald Corp. and is
based in Delaware or the Dis
trict. He could not recall where.
The stock was pro-rated at
$3.50 a share.
The hearing was recessed
yesterday after two days of tes-
timony until January %. The
hearing is being held to deter
mine whether Lloyd, Miller's

ing of four Maryland associa-
tlonS and the court trouble of
another dozen or so.
These are the thousands of
shareholders in Maryland saw
ingS and loan institutions of
all types who are frightened by
the publicity and the charges
surrounding the present law en-
forcement campaign.

but the bona-fide, we'll run in

may be hesitant to admit pub
licly that not a few of their
customers are making over

Mr.. Case makes no bones
about his being a Democrat and
an appointee of Gov. TaWes on
several State boards.
Headed Tax Study
He also served as chairman
of a special committee study
ing the State tax program in
1949 to 1851. He has headed a
committee in Baltimore County
on tax revision.
Currently he is a member of
the board of regents of the
University of Maryland. He also
is attorney for Mr.. Ward who
is conservator of a small Balti-
more savings and loan associa-
ton, hit early in the current
enforcement campaign.
These considerations have
kept him from speaking up, but
the battle is getting hotter, his
patience thinner, and the sharp
in-fighter is expected to say so.

S.-ond-L. Law Author
Drafts Blast for Foes
BY ROBERT GRUENBERG
star staff Writer

A principal architect Of Mary
lands new savings and loan
law is readying a blast at those
he feels are political oppor-
tunists who have injected them
selves in the current savings
loan enforcement campaign.
Richard w. Case, 43-year-
old Baltimore attorney, is an
,gered over developments in the
last several WeekS-Specifically
the welter of attacks stirred up
by application of the new law.
The attacks have come from
political figures of both parties
against Gov. TaWes and his
chief lieutenant in the current
Savings-loan fight, Attorney
General Thomas P. Finan.
1t has been Mr.. Finan, along
with Albert w. Ward, chief of
the Department of Assessments
and Taxation, who have been
pushing the application of the
law passed by a special session
Of the 1861 Legislature.
,s Readied in 1860
1t was a law, amended and
reamended, which Mr.. Case as
head of a 15-man special COM
mission, spent six months put
ting together, presenting it
early in December, 1860.
In the following months, un-
til June IL, when it took effect,
Mr.. Case and others backing
it. were the center of bitter po-
litical attacks.
Since last October, when Mr..
Finan and Mr.. Ward swung
into action, critics of the Gov
ernor-Some say, with one eye
on the May primary - have
lashed at him for his veto of a
1860 SaVings-loan regulatory
bill, and have asked for an over
all investigation of the savings
loan lobby and related areas.
The Governor has replied that
he vetoed the 1860 bill, intro
duced by Delegate Joseph Tyd-
ings, now United States Attor-
ney in Baltimore, because it was
a too-Weak stop-gap measure.
AS for Investigations, the
Governor said last week he
would welcome" one by a COM
petent government agency as
long as it didn't turn into a
witch hunt"

Austrian School Principal
Turns rQveI Adventurer

DR.. Kellner holds a mast
er'S degree in sociology from
the University Of Vienna. She
also went in for a doctorate
on the same subject. Her
thesis was a study of social
upheavels since the days Of
King Hammurabi, the con-
temporary of Prophet Abra-
ham.
Nowadays, when I travel
to a county, the first thing
I do is to make a study Of
social relations there.
But even before I leave
I read up on that country.
Thus, for instance, when I
went to Africa and Egypt,
I made a careful study of
the Koran. the sacred book
of the MoSlems.
Such a prior study is
most essential, especially for
a woman, in order to avoid
bad situations" DR.. Kellner
said.
Travels Light
The visitor travels with
only two light suit cases.
One is full of books. The
other has clothes in it.
Her travel wardrobe con-
sists of just native Austrian
dresses and one black cock
tail dress for formal occa-
SionS.
II travel alone, and stay at
moderate-sized hotels. I've
had no difficulty with food
from various countries. Food
apart, my observation is that
peole basically are good
everywhere.
zone day I will write a
book about all this" she
said.
