neport. His keeper, Deputy Sheriff
Fred E. Muchmore. was compelled to
assist him to his feet. When the
words "Not guilty" were uttered Hall
swayed. but was prevented from fall~
ing by the Deputy. Then Judge Wil~
son pronmmced the formal discharge
of the prisoner from custody and
Hall slipped heavily into his chair. He
responded weakly to the congratula-
tions of his counsel, the members or
his family and others in the crowd
which immediately surrounded him.
Without much delay Hall, accom-
wanted by his aged mother, Mrs. Zeim
Hall; his brother, Zemro, and his sis-
ter, Mary, started down the stairs to-
ward the exit. He was still showing
evidence of weakness from the nerv-
ous strain and his chief counsel.
George L. J. Emery. assisted him by
placing an arm around his shoulders.
Hall’s mother also had to be asalsted.
TO PLACE NATIONAL l
BANK TRUST DEPARTMENTS l
UNDER‘ STATE SUPERVISION
Attorney General Advises That Legis-
lation Be Sought.
In reply to a question submitted by
llank Commissioner Everett J. Sturgcs
as to whether under the act of Con-
gress. authorizing national banks to
open trust departments he has the au-
thority to examine the trust depart-
ments when organized. Attorney
General Frank E. Healy suggests that
the commissioner apply in the present
session of the General Assembly for
legislation which will place national
banks having trust departments under
his supervision.
The attorney general said that the
laws of this state do not permit na-
tional banks to combat a trust depart-
ment, and there is no existing law an-
thorizing the bank commissioner to
make an examination of such a departu
meat and to charge part of the ex-
pense to the national bank so examin-
ed. As it is_lhc settled policy of the.
state to regulate the investment of the
commissioner's department to examine
. such departments to see that they con-
form to the law, he suggests that the
legislation be sought which would
place such departments under the su-
pervision of the department as is now
by law obtained over state banks and
trust companies.

of the office force during a period of r i «
few weeks, automobile drivers are in-i
