Beam, an attorney of the Western Electric Company, Manhattan, spoke at yesterday's meeting of the Jamaica Kiwanis Club at the Central Queens Branch Y. M. C.

A. He told of the patent system and said it was an incentive to youthful Inventors as well as business. "Always look forward to the future," he said, "for you may be another Edison, Marconi or Bell. If you do invent something, be sure and have it patented. There are many inventors starving today because they failed to have their inventions patented.

They refused to sell their works for small prices, and because they carried no patent, someone else came along and made identical inventions. No Job Too Big!

London Stenogs Now Boast Snake Skin Shoes and Furs DELAYS BANKING 1 TO SAVE DOTS HERE Assemblyman Story Hold's Up Bill at Request of City Trust Group. Rustle nurrna.

Capitol Iliillrtinir. By CLINTON L. MOSIIER. Albany, March 12 Assemblyman Robert K. Story, thd lone Republican from Brooklyn, announced today that his bill to appoint a commission to investigate the State Banking Department will be held In abeyance pending the outcome of negotiations to rehabilitate the closed City Trust Company through the formation of a new bank with capital funds of $5,000,000.

Story said last week the failure of three banks In Brooklyn within a comparatively short time war ranted an investigation of the Banking Department, headed bs Frank H. Warder, the Democrat elected to the post of superintendent by former Governor Smith when George V. McLaughlin quit that job to become Police Commissioner of the City of New York. Committee Urges Action. "Yesterday afternoon," said Story, "a committee claiming to represent 41.000 individual depositors in the City Trust Company called at my home with the request that final steps to create a commission to investigate the Banking Department be withheld pending the completion of the negotiations whereby they have been assured 100 cents on the dollar reimbursement." Former Supreme Court Justice Jeremiah T.

Mahoney, counsel to Warder, said on Saturday that a "banking group," the names of which he declined to disclose, had pledged $5,000,000 In new funds to take over the accounts of the City Trust, and to set up a new institution. He said it would require at least a month to complete the deal. Of the committee of depositors that called on him, Story said. "The request was not for the abolition of the intended investigation, but merely for temporary delay to prevent possible distrust on the part of the depositors in other institutions, causing probable runs on banks whose officers have agreed to make up the City Trust deficit." "Should such runs occur, it would, It was claimed, tie the hands of those who have offered to assist the losers In the Trust Company failure. Since I am convinced from investigation that depositors in other institutions are safe in continued confidence in their banks, and the proposed investigation Is aimed solely at the methods employed by the banking department itself, it is only fair to those who have already suffered a loss that the temporary withholding of immediate action be conceded, thus affording the Individual losers an opportunity to recoup." Governor Considers Plea.

Governor Roosevelt has "under advisement" a request from Frank Saitta. a Brooklyn attorney and depositor in the City Trust, for an investigation of the Banking Department. The Governor has said his primary interest is the possibility of the depositors regaining their money and that he will take no action pending negotiations for the transfer of the accounts to a new bank. If Story subsequently Introduces his bill and it appears to have the backing of the majority, the chances are the Governor would be forced to beat the Republicans to it by appointing a Moreland Act commissioner to investigate the banking department.

Governor Roosevelt follows the general lines of the proposals by Governor Smith.

These corporations are to be guar anteed a fair return on actually In vested capital not on capital wa tercd and rewatered by new stock Issues and holding company chi caneries. Rates are to be agreed upon by contract between the Water Power Trustees and the corporations buying the power. The Public Service Commission is to have nothing to do with fixing rates. The Governor points out that Federal Courts by their arbitrary one-sided decisions have dealt very unfairly with the people in rate matters.

HAYS HITS WHALEN WAR ON CRIMINAL The present method of warfare against the criminal Is tending to set a dangerous precedent, Arthur Gar field Hays, the lawyer and founder of the American Civil Liberties Union, stated last night at the meet ing of the Young Israel of Brooklyn at 563 Bedford ave. Police Commissioner Grover A. Whalen's attempt at law enforcement is a violation of every citizen's constitutional rights, he declared. "There is a movement on loot by the Whalen crowd to get permission to arrest the 'potential Mr.

Hays said. "Since a criminal is one who commits a crime, under dozens of laws, we are criminals every day. Given the right conditions, most of us are potential criminals. Whalen simply wants to maintain order by getting rid of all those outside a certain class in society." Mr. Hays, in closing, said: "Pun ishment is not for retribution.

Men who have chosen such lives should be helped. When they get out of Jail it should not be made difficult for them to get along. They should be given a chance."

The trend of the times is toward continued public ownership of the few natural resources which still remain in Government hands. With every year that passes there Is less chance that these resources will be alienated from public control. Valuable water power is now going to waste.

No one who has witnessed personally the reckless, wasteful, disastrous exploitation of the forest lands of the Northwest has much sympathy with those who seek to frighten us with the cry of socialism against commonsense conservation.
