Depositors of Defunct Bank to Recover Money \merican Stat<* May Be Taken Over by Group of Oma bans ami Operated Under New Charter. Dep.'hitori In the defunct American State bank may lie enabled to obtain their money within the n<xt four or five days by the claim system, which makes it possible for them to receive credit at some other bank for the iunount they had on deposit at the failed inst.tution. Fred E. Lodia, who was appointed receiver of the bank by District Judge Troup Monday night, said yesterday morning he hoped to be able to begin serif- ng claims of the depositors in the next few days. In the meantime a group of Oma ha men headed by F. D. Wead are work ng to buy- over the bank, thus acquiring deposits amounting to $1,100,000. If this Is accomplished, operation of the bank will be con tinued under a new charter. SJSO.OflO Needed. It la estimated that $250,000 will be required to swing the deal, and It Is reported that these interests have re reived assurance that a new charter can be obtained today if the reorgani zation goes through. The bank will be capitalized ut $200,000 under the now charter. Receiver Ilodie, who handled the affairs of the Hanking House of C'as tetter at Blair, explained that all his actions would be guided by district court..

Prohibition does not prohibit in Omaha, according to figures compiled by Julius Stigge, clerk In the office of Chief of Police Dempsey. These figures show 1922 tho "wettest” year In the city's history, with 4,802 per sons arrested for intoxication in the II months. Mr. Stigge searched the records in the effort to get something to equal this before tho prohibitory amend ment went into effect. He failed. The worst year he could find was 1915, with 4,084 arrests for drunken ness In tho 1'2 months, 718 fewer than In the first 11 months^f 1922. "We used to have 300 saloons in Omaha. Now we have 3.00A.” de clared A. V. Nelson of Sergt. Frank I Williams" booze squad. "There is more liquor in Omaha today than be fore the prohibitory amendment. In I spite of all the City, state and fed I oral officers are doing. Tho young | generation is learning to drink faster j than ever. Girls and boys think it is smart to carry tho flask.” I Bishop E. V. Shayler declared the I figures "appalling." "They are symp toms of a devouring disease, contempt for law. It heralds the anarchism of society as it heralded the French ami the Russian revolutions.” 1 Bo ' °f “Lightnin”’ Star Passes Through Omaha The body of Frank Bacon, famous star of “Lightnin',” passed through Omaha yesterday on the Overland Limited en route to its final resting place in Alta Mesa.

M* Riv al Concerns in Legal Battle Two Radio Companies Fight in Courts for Right to Make Audion Tubes. The recent decision of Judge Hugh M. Morris in the Delaware district court awarding the Radio Audion com pany $5,750 counsel fees from the Radio Corporation of America In con tempt of court proceedings, ts expected to have an Important bearing In the litigation going on between the two concerns. Moreover, it, is of particular inter est to every radio owner us the Radio Audion company is the only inde pendent organization manufacturing and distributing tlie famous nudion vacuum lubes which are popularly known to radio amateurs as "Myers tubes." Legal efforts by the Radio Corporation of America to restrain them on the ground that they were Infringing the Klomlng patent were unsuccessful so far as the audion used as an amplifier or generator of high, frequency oscillations is con cerned. The decree of contempt of court grew out of a circular letter dis I tributed on July 1 by the Radio Corporation of America warning peo ple against the audion tubes being manufactured from other sources .'.ltd intimating that dealers and | agents were liable to prosecution for handling such tubes which, it was • declared, infringed certain patents ex ! cluslvely controlled by them. Judge Morris described the letter I as ■’improper, misleading anud decep tive with respect to the Radio Audion ( 1 company” and not only enjoined the i corporation from issuing other copies | of same but ordered them to tile with I the clerk of the court a complete list of all those to whom the letter was] ] sent so that the clerk f'onld mail a J copy of the court order to every j person who received the letter. Mr. Elman B. Myers who invented and designed the Myers type of audion which is the product of the Radio Audion company, was selected by Dr. De Forest and put in entire charge of the manufacture of audion tubes by the De Forest company for the government during the war.
