Korman, whose client, Bernard Goldstein, sought to | obtain priority over the F. H. A. in | collecting a debt from a bankrupt. The man had obtained a bank loan, which was insured by the | F. H. A. and later defaulted. The F. H. A. paid the loan back to the bank and received an assignment. Later the debtor was declared bank. | rupt and the F. H. A. sought pri ‘ ority in collecting the money owned | under the provision of the law for | | “debts due the United States.” Mr. Korman claimed the agency did not have the standing as a United States agency which would | entitle it to any priority over his | client’s claim. District Court over- ruled his contention and approved the F. H. A. claim, bringing on the appeal The Government was represented by David A. Pine, then United States attorney. and by Assistant United | States Attorney Grace Brown Stiles. The Court of Appeals decision to- day was written by Associate Justice | Fred M. Vinson, with Chief Justice | D. Lawrence Groner and Associate | | Justice Justin Miller concurring. The court held that the F. H.

Deputy Coroner | Christopher Murphy said an au- topsy would be performed before a certificate was issued. Mr. Lubar, a World War veteran, was found seated in his car, which he had driven into a garage owned by his nephew, Max L. Jeweler, 7405 Fourteenth street N.W. The doors of the garage, which Mr. Jeweler had left open, were closed. The auto engine was stopped, although the ignition was on and the motor was still warm. Efforts to revive Mr. Lubar when the body | was discovered about 7 a.m. were | futile. | Police said that he had been in poor health recently. i and COLOR 19 m— E QUALITY DECK or PORCH CHAIR wi arm rests; hardwood fram large roomy seat: heavy fabric, durable and attractive; excep- tional at this price.
