Cox that a receiver can not be named for partial assets of the Union National Savings and Loan Association, 20 West Ohio street, was announced today. He denied petition of Gertrude Bowles asking appointment of a receiver for one-lialf the receipt's of the association. Asserting she had obeyed a ninety-day notification of withdrawal provision of the company, the petitioner alleged its officials had refused to allow her to withdraw $4,326. Action for receiver of a savings and loan association must be brought either by the state banking examiner or majority of stockholders and directors. Cox asserted. }t is not possible for a creditor to pet a receiver appointed for 50 per cm of the receipts of the association." his ruling *’ated. "It the bank commissioner and directors should fail to act.” Cox pointed out, "action clearly would be one of mandate to compel these various entities to perform their legal duty." RELEASE PROTESTED.

INDIANAPOLIS WEEKLY LIVESTOCK REVIEW

For Week Ending Thursday, March 2. By U. S. Dept, of Agriculture —Cattle— The general price trend at Indianapolis was similar ;a most respects to that in effect last week. There was a rather urgent inauirv tor finished steers for eastern sniptnent and the small auota of these available sold readily at slightly higher figures. The advance in some cases amounted to 25 cents or more and some substitutes hardly good enough for tins trade sold strong. However, the week's supply consisted largely of medium to near good descriptions and few if any o£ these were able to seat steady prices. Weighty offerings received more consideration this week than heretofore and evidenced some reaction from recent relatively low levels. Noticeable sales this week were two loac.s of 1.150-nound lightweights at 56.00. some 1 223 and 1.262-pound bullocks at 55.00 and a load ol 1.332 pounders at $1.90. The extreme top was awarded to a load of 965-pound yearlings which went over at $6.50. Aside from the foregoing transactions most of the supply was of duality and condition to sell from s4(as. Killing duality as a whole was not as satisfactory as last week and common killers sold dowm to $3.00 and $3.50. Market for she stock was no more than steady at any time. Weakness was most apparent on Tuesday when some better grade cows and most heifers ruled weak to lower, but not enough to jutisfv a revision in Quotations. There was some later reaction but some bargains were reported ail along the line, probably as much as 25c lower in some instances. For the week, most heifers sold from S3-<;5 (it 4.50. with a few at $4.75 and $5. Better grades were conspicuously absent but were considered salable up to $5.50 and possibly above. Extremely thin common kinds ranged downward to $2.50. Desirable beef cows bulked from s2.2r>© 3. extreme top $3.25. Sales above $2.75 were less freauent than last week and the tendency was a little in favor of the In; vine side. Low cutters and cutters cashed from SI .75® 2. usually $1.5002. local supplies of all classes were considerably less than durnie the corresponding four davs last week, and the same was true of the twelve market total. Fluctuations in the vealer trade were eomparativelv mild, never more than 50 cents and sometimes less. For the Thursday to Thursday period, good and choice offerings bulked from 56 457 and closed with an extreme top of $6.50 Thursday. Common and -medium kinds cashed generally from $3.504? 5.50. with immature light weights under the $3 mark. HOGS Daily marketings dropped to an average of less than 4,000, but changes in the price list were of a minor character. Light supplies and restricted movement into regular trade channels were attributed in part to emergency banking restrictions which affected this and ail other branches of the trade. Compared witft last Thursday the price list shows a loss of 15c, but since Monday’s low spot a 10c to 15c, advance appeared. For the four-day period good and choice 160 to 300-pound selections bulked from $3.45fu 3.70 with weights from 160 to 225 pounds listed at the top Quotation. Some shift tn favor of stronger weights was apparent and averages from 190 to 210 pounds usually received first call. Thursday's top of $3.75 as well as other peak prieps during the period was paid for such weight selections. Underweights scaling from 140 to 160 pounds cleared from 53.25 'u3.50 and lighter descriptions cashed from S3 '7 3.25. Good packing sows sold generally from $2,504(3 with a few smooth lightweights around 53.10 and plain heavy roughs down to $2.25 and less. Thursday's schedule follows: 160 to 225 pounds $3.70, top 53.75: 225 to 250 pounds. 53.65; 250 to 275 pounds. 53.60: 275 to 300 pounds. $3.55: 300 to 325 pounds. $3.50: 325 to 350 pounds. $3.45: 350 to 400 pounds. 53.40: 150 to 160 pounds. $3.50: 140 to 150 pounds. 53.40; 130 to 140 pounds. $3.30; 120 to 130 pounds, S3 20: 100 to 120 pounds, $3; packing sows, $2.50(u 3.10. Sheep There was little change in the local laniD market this week, but prices were inclined to work lower and were maintained with difficulty. The outside Quotation of $5.75 in effect late last week was not attainable since Monday, but other sales in a spread of $5,504(5.65 were close to steadv. quality and sorting considered. Marketings were increased around 1.000 over last week's four-day total, but the twelve market supply was little changed. During the past four days fed westerns, which made up most of the avaiiabie supply bulked from $5.40® 5.65. Weight was still a factor, but less pronounced than some outside reports indicate. While weights under 90 pounds are most dpsired some 92 to 100-pound offerings sold up to $5.50. Late sessions were so frequent that little action is expected before late in the forenoon and sometimes after middav. In fact early trading seems to be definitely abandoned at least for this spring marketing. Unfinished lambs and tl rewouts were little changed in a range of $3.5045 5 with skips under S3. Ewes were scarce as usual and cleared mostly from 51.75fi2.15. lightweights to $2 50 and better. heavies and aged ewes Sl® 1.50. Births Bovs Homer and Ethel Jones. 534 Centennial.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TRIES

Just 390 years ago, Galileo published a book, in which he stated that the earth revolved about the sun, and no sooner was it published than he was ordered to report to Rome. Because the Scriptures said, “The earth hath He established that it shall not be moved,” this new theory, now known to be a fact, could not be tolerated. Other men had been burned at the stake for unorthodox views, and Galileo, rather than suffer a like fate, signed papers of abjuration. Next—What fish drowns, if kept under water for any great length of time?

CREDIT COMES TO RELIEF OF SWINETRADERS Small Speculator, Operator Wiped Out by Bank Restrictions. BY JOHN HAWKINS Times Financial editor Small traders and speculators operating on slim margins of capital virtually were wiped out in livestock trading at the Union Stockyards this week. With restrictions placed on banking accommodations last Monday, many farmers and livestock owners with cattle, hogs and sheep for sale found themselves in the peculiar position of having something which purchasers wanted and were willing to buy, but for which a sale could not be consummated. Cash was at a premium and the trade with a little ready money found an open market for ’-is operations. With cessation of checks on funds deposited prior to Monday, trade immediately stopped. Tuesday the market displayed a more normal tone, as operators were given a chance Monday and Monday night to find a little cash to open new accounts in the bank. The plan as worked out during the remaining days of the week by the bank consists largely of a credit transaction. The seller of livestock is given a check by the commission house or order buyer and urged to deposit it in his home bank. The check is cleared in this way and creates a system of credit between banks concerned that paves the way for increasing livestock trade. Owing to the general tightness of the situation, shipments going east are handled only as collection items on arrival, foreign or outstate checks being looked upon with disfavor. Barring unforeseen events, the market will be operating in a normal manner soon, observers say, on account of the wide credit being pumped into the entire system. In the Air Weather condition at 9 a. m.: Northeast wind, 16 miles an hour; temperature, 33; barometric pressure, 30.37 at sea level; general condition, overcast; ceiling, estimated 1,500 feet; visibility, 10 miles; field, good.

Cummings in Cabinet Post Is Surprise to Politicians

Great Contrast to Late Senator Walsh, Originally Named to Post. BY RAY TUCKER Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, March 4.—The appointment of Homer Stille Cummings as attorney-general was a complete surprise to politicians here today because of the contrast between him and the man originally named for that important office—the late Senator Thomas J. Walsh of Montana. Although a good lawyer, the man from Connecticut was not ranked with the late senator in legal circles. Although deep in politics since admission to the bar in his home town of Stamford in 1893. and a former chairman of the Democratic national committee, he never won any of his attempts to enter congress. One of William G. McAdoo's managers in the bitter clash with Alfred E. Smith at Madison Square Garden, he has been in virtual retirement during the Smith-Raskob control of the party. He came back to fight for Franklin D. Roosevelt last year, and some reward was j certain. Friends for Years If, as reported, he remains only long enough to organize the depart- j ment, it further emphasizes the next; President's desire to have a firm grip on all executive branches. He and Mr. Cummings have been; friends for years. This selection and that of Daniel C. Roper of South Carolina for ■ secretary of commerce show Mr. J Roosevelt's leanings to old, personal i friends. It aggravates the feeling in some quarters that the appointment may not sit kindly with many New England groups which supported Smith.' Cummings does not represent the j extremely wet crowd which used to; cheer and weep over Al. The late Senator Walsh's appoint- j ment was taken to mean the new ! administration would aggressively enforce anti-trust laws, but Cum- j mings’ record and attitude on such j questions are not known. Denounced Tariff Boosts Though no militant liberal, Cum- I mings can not be classed as a conservative. In the 1928 campaign he ! declared that Connecticut had lost control of its water power resources, and warned other states they would suffer the same fate under Republican rule. He praised the “courage end leadership ' of Smith in handling this problem while Governor of New York. Cummings denounced the Haw-ley-Smoot tariff bill as “unsound and unjustifiable.” He said it had increased the tax burden, injured business and industry and led to international warfare in the economic field. He has been an ardent supporter of the world court and other Wilsonian policies. The farm board, in his opinion, has “accentuated the misfortune of Enumerable farmers” who followed its advice. Educated at Yale Cummings is a tall, rather bulky figure, with bald head and large, blue eyes. He talks slowly, weighing his words carefully. He was born in Chicago in 1870, and educated at Yale, beginning practice at Stamford, where he still lives. He has held public office for many years. He was mayor of Stamford! from 1901 to corporation

SAVES HER SISTER

■ AHI jk

"I don't hurt—l saved my sister. didn't I?" Betty Lee Master, 8, shown above in an Athens (O.) hospital, spoke those words unmindful of the seven fingers she sacrificed in saving her little sister, Rita, 6, from death beneath a train. Rita had been playing under a freight car. When it started to move, Betty crawled under, pushed her sister free just as a wheel crushed her hands.

DRASTIC ORDERS AFFECT STOCKS Securities Markets Frozen at Friday Night's Close. Major and minor stock, bond, grain and commodity exchanges were closed today with drastic orders in effect prohibiting any broker to accept or execute any orders pertaining to securities. Increasing spread of bank restrictions throughout the United States brought about the trade suspension orders. Open orders in he stock market, where the would-be purchaser or seller has designated a point to either sell or buy a certain stock or share were being cancelled as fast as brokers could look up the orders. This cancellation of open orders was a measure to protect both trader and broker against drastic changes in event of wide swings in the stock market when it reopens. Securities prices were frozen at the levels of Friday night’s close. Rumors were current in financial circles of some drastic action that may be taken by Franklin D. Roosevelt immediately after assuming office as President.

counsel from 1908 to 1912, county attorney from 1914 to 1924.

M’NUTT ASCENT TO POWER ENOS PETTICOAT ROLE Fine Hand of Fair Lady No Longer Dominates State’s Policies. BY DANIEL KIDNEY Advent of Governor Paul V. McNutt and his young Democrat and American Legion cohorts has marked the end of "poUicoat government" in the statehouse. This plainly was evident in pictures showing the signing and repeal of the Wright "bone dry" law. t\ hen the first dry measure v, as being signed by former Governor Janies P. Goodrich, if was in the midst of women, with a sprinkling of men who didn't smoke or drink No women were in the picture when the "obnoxious" Wright law was repealed early this week. That the masculine hand is on the throttle is shown also by tho nature of the bills passed that formerly were frowned upon by members of tho committee on public morals, under G. O. P . \v. c T U and Anti-Saloon League domination. Even Gambling Legalized For instance, Indiana is tho first state to set up beer control machinery, before beer even had been authorized nationally. Both houses also are on record for legalized gambling bv the use of pari-mutuel betting machines. Only difference between house and senate was on whether the betting should or should not be confined to horse racing. Even the appearance of the legislative halls have changed. Where formerly women abounded and were obeyed (usually by contrite legislators with hang-overs), there are few on hand now and they receive courteous treatment, but no truckling Representative Bess Robbins <Dem., Indianapolis) is the only woman member of either house this session. In deference to her sex. her house colleagues passed a bill making fathers financially responsible for illegitimate children. Sad Witness to Death She followed the bill over to the senate, only to witness its death at the hands of the 100 per cent male membership. Miss Emma May. Terre Haute is the only woman state official holding office under the Democrats. She is reporter of the supreme and appellate courts. Her office is on the top floor in the northwest corner of the building and so she j s far from being as prominent in the picture as was Mrs. Grace Banta Reynolds, last Republican state treasurer. The treasurer’s office is on the mam floor. But under the Democrats.
