May Extend Deposits For Public Moneys On Deposit
Secretary Shaw suggested possible extensions for returning public funds on deposit in national banks. Initial $25,000,000 distributed last September could return around February 1, with subsequent deposits of $6,000,000 and $12,000,000 under staggered deadlines. A separate $29,000,000 faced no fixed return date, and the Treasury may permit continued retention where feasible amid strong revenue excess.

Lawyer Sues Hitchcock to Admit Him as Interior Attorney
Attorney Frank D. Blackistone, examiner in chancery for the District Supreme Court, has filed a mandamus action in the District Supreme Court to force Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock to admit him to practice as an attorney in the Interior Department. He states he was admitted to the District Supreme Court on December 27, 1896 and has served as an examiner in chancery since 1900. He applied for Interior Department admission on July 7, 1903, but was rejected on September 8, 1914 by Assistant Secretary Thomas Ryan, who said his chancery examiner status invalidated his application. Blackistone argues the objection is improper.
