PULLAR & NIVEN RECEIVERSHIP T0 BE STAVED OFF nterborongh Rapid Transit Co. Has New Plan Now New York, Aug. nent of a program by which the nterborough Rapid = Transit Co. 1opes to stave off receivership de- nanded -in two court actions, was ixpected today following the regu- ar meeting of the company’s board if directors. Solvency of the Interborough, vhich operates most of New York's wbway and elevated lines, was chal- enged first on Saturday in a re- reivership proceeding brought by the y\merican Brake Shoe Co. a creditor. Slarence H. Venner president of the Continental Hycunities Co. which j0lds Interborough securities fol- owed yesterday with a suit which jemanded not only receivership but jivorcement from the Interborough »f the Manhattan Railway Co. the jubsidary company operating the slevated lines and appointment of a ‘eceiver for that line also. Politics entered into the situation with a charge by Mayor Hylan, that he receivership had been brought tbout by “traction interests” as part »f a plan to force higher fares. Both Mayor Hylan and his republican- tusion opponent Henry H. Curran jave five cent fare planks in their slatforms. The fact thati a $38,000,000 is- sue of 7 per cent Interborough notes falls dAue on Thursday is said to jave been one of ‘the factors pre- sipitating the receivership proceed- ings at this time. Frank Hedley, sresident of the company was ex- sected to report to the directors to- jay on steps taken to obtain an ex- :ension of these notes at 8 per cent. Vew ngtes have been deposited with I. P. Morgan and Co. and are being sffered to present holders of the 7 ser cent paper. About half the note jolders are reported to have agreed to the extension. The new notes 30.—Announce- also were lisjted yesterday on the New York stock exchange and of- ficials of the company are optimistic that they will find ready acceptance. IS SELF SUPPORTING Junior Jolly Workers <Club Shows ‘What Others Can Do and Are Do- ing in New Britain. That junior achievement clubs in tiiis and other cities are self support- ing, as the objects of the organiza- tion at large provide that they should be, is shown in a report made public by Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Williams, who head the Jolly Workers' Junior Achievement club in this city, along with several others they have organ- 1zed. The report shows that the club was organized on July 27, at the daily vacation Bible school by the Rev. Frederick H. Wilkins, with Mrs. Wil- liams as leader. There were 12 mem- bers at that time. Under the capable leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Williams the club has grown to 23 members. Since its creation the club has raised $7.50 unaided by outsiders. Of this sum, two-thirds went to the members as commissfon, and the other third was turned into the club treasury. All told $5.88 was paid out, including the purchase of supplies, and there still remains $1.62 as a balance. Every boy bought his own tools, except in a few cases where clamps were provided by Rev. Mr. Wilkins. GREAT GRANDCHILD BORN. A daughter, Shirley Elizabeth, was born at the New Britain General hos- pital vesterday to Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Capen of 7 Newberry street.
