BANKRUPTCY LA 3000 YEARS 01D Relerse Hoadley of New Haven Tells Lions About It The bankruptoy law iy 8,000 years old and was made to protect the honest business man who suffers losses and wants to make a new start, according to Carleton E. Hoadley, of New Haven, ree in bankruptey, who spoke to the mem- bers of the Lions' club at the Bur- ritt hotel at noon today. Mr., Hoadley intimated that bank- ruptcies are ofttimes the fault of creditors who make it too easy for small businessmen to get credit and that many small business places prove fallures eventually. He sald the bankruptey law ante- dates the reign of Solomon and David when it was the custom of the Jewish people that every seven years all debts were eliminated, “It is making & new starting point in a business man's life,” he ex- plaincd, defining the bankruptey law, “The first reason we need a bank- ruptey law is to prevent business- men themselves from robbing each other,” he said. He sald the law became necessary when it was found possible to con- serve the assots of a businessman who met honestly With reverses, stating that “it gives the honest man an opportunity to be free from his debts and to start again.” “The result of that law, which started among the Hebrews 3,000 years ago, is that the Jewish people have a majority in business and commercial life in the world today,” he added. He cited an illustration df what makes a bankrupt. He said a young man works for another man and sces the other man making money. He saves until he gets $1,000, Then he rents a place on Main street, opens a store, pays $200 cash and puts in $10,000 worth of goods, pays his rent a month in advance and the balance of his $1,000 goes for stock and fixtures. Then a chain store opens up near- by and sells condensed milk for 11 cens atcan which costs him 11%. He sells it for 10 to meet competl- tion, gets In some cash, pays some- thing on his bills and another month’s rent and thinks he is mak- ing money. 75 Per Cent in Dark “The result of this system is a lot of unsuccessful businessmen,” he added, ‘“Seventy-five per cent of the smaller businessmen in the United Etates today have absolutely no idea Where they s “It Is not fhe'fault of the bunk- rupt that your dividends are too small. You creditors let your debtor §0 too far, You let him go llke a man with a toothache when he finds the dentist is not in. He goes home and next time he sees the dentist loses the tooth-——it has gone too fai The s a debtor clal difficulty 1y the time for ereditors to take notice, “A little place, small caplital, high rent, close competition and elght out of 10 will be failures,”" he added. He sald 80 per cent of the fallures are absolutely honest. ‘“They are men who have no right to go fnto business and never should get any credit.” He cited an Instance of a man who filed a petition in bankruptey today. “He was out of touch, atter belng in business for 30 yehrs” he sald. “He did not progress with the times." He sald the bankruptey law is to help the honest man, “The world holds out a helping hand, what are you in it for if -not to help each Other?” It was announced that Dave Young was going td leave New Brit- aln to accept a ' positioh in New Haven and that Robert Loomls, boys' secretary at the Y, M, C, A, would be the new song leader. Mr, Loomis sang several solos during the meeting. Mrs. E. B. Stone spoke on hehalf of the Y. W, C. A, drive.

HOLD HEARING ON BRISTOL ARMORY Proponents Explain Why Build- ing Should-Be Erected (8pecial to The Herald,) Hartford, Feb. 17.—An appropri- ation for $185,000 for a state armory was asked by representatives of the city of Bristol at a meeting of the military affairs committee at the capitol this afternoon. The request includes an appropriation of $25,000 for a lot and the palance for the building of an armory. The delegation included Represen- tative Epaphroditis Peck, Post- master Merrill, Earl J. Arnold, sec- retary of the Chamber of Commerce; L. A. Wheeler, R. K. Lindsley, of- fice manager of the Bristol-Plainville Tramway Co.; Captain LaRoque of Company L, Frederick G. Hughes, vice-president of the New Departure Co.; Frank Dutton, city counoilor; Wallace Krumb, park commissioner, and J. H. Chidsey. Representative Peck explained that Bristol was the largest city in Connecticut without an armory. He said the members of the natlonal guard now are meeting in the Red Men’s hall and have to store their guns in the cellar. After the recent floods the cellar had eix inches of water in it. The others all testjfied in favor of an armory. Brigadler General Payne was called upon and eald he told former Representative Merrill that if Bris- tol had a military organization it would have a better chance to get an appropriation. He said they had formed two, 80 as to have something tangible to which to point. He sald there was no question from a military standpoint that Bris- tol should have an armory. He sald it has as much right as in any other city in the state for requesting it. He saill that a little unde $3,000 & year rental is being paid and it would be good business ta bulld an armory. 1., A IRIVE GETS UNDER WAY Campaign Outlined at Supper Served in Gymnasium The Y. W.

Noble of the fire department to complain about the actions of a member of the fire department last Saturday night. He was accompan- ed by a young woman he introduc- d to Chief Noble s *“Miss Willlams" who was alleged to have been fol- lowed by a member of the fire de- partment last Saturday night. The investigator extraordinary met Chairman Keevérs on West Main street and made the complaint to him, but Keevers immediately refer- red him to Chief Noble. Chief Noble was then communicated with by “Mr. X" who made an appointment with the chief to meet him on Main street as he sald the young woman did not relish the idea of appearing at the fire headquarters. The appointment was kept and the circumstances of the incident of which the complaint was made were related to the chief. The name of the fireman was not known but a description of him was given the chief so that no difficulty was found in locating him as he was very ready to tell the chief of the incident. It appeared that the fireman was on the street Saturday night with his machine when he met a friend who told him that the mysterious Wall Street Briefs The recommendation of the port of Now York guthority that the Penn- sylvania and New Haven rallroads open their $60,000,000 Hell Ga bridge route Into Long Island to the New York Central rallroad is expect- od to precipitate a long drawn legal ht.

STEALS GORN FOR LOVE IS FREED Thet Tarns Out to Be a Custom; Loser Glad Budapest, Feb, 17.—One of the most unusual cases ever heard in Hungary recently was before the court in the little provincial town of Osli, when eight farmer boys, caught in the act, were charged with walk- ing off with 20 pounds of corn stol- en from a widow named Voeroes. They not only pleaded not guilty despite the fact that they admitted the theft, but produced a sealed document from the widow in which she declared that “she and her daughter Sarika counted it an honor that Franz Kiraly (the ringleader of the elght) had considered their house worthy of this distinction.” The judge was nonplussed. suppose the widow fears your venge?” he asked. “No, your honor,” Franz Kiraly replied, speaking for the group. “You see, in our part of the country there is a custom by which every year, after the corn has been har- vested, a large pot of corn meal is placed on the stove in houses where there are grown-up unmar- ried daughters. The lover of the oldest daughter must steal this corn. To facilitate the theft the family leaves the house for half an hour after the corn meal has been placed on the stove.
