OOHEN DISCHARGED IN POLICE COURT Not Required to Take Out ltin- erant Yendor’s License Louis Cohen of Hartford, one of the officers of Cohen Brothers, deal- ers in candy, novelties, fireworks, cte., was discharged by Judge Henry | P. Roche in police court today, the ruling of the court being that the statutes did not require Cohen to be licensed as an itinerant vendor. The evidence and arguments in the case were presented yesterday, Judge F. B. Hungerford representing Cohen and claiming that the statutes did not cover the particular case, while Prosccuting Attorney Woods' con- tention was that Cohen must be li- censed under the statutes. Judge Roche made his finding verbally, pointing out that Cehen Brothers are a concern whose regu- lar business included the sale of fire- works, whercas the statute under which the case was brought has been interpreted to apply to vendors who to place. Cohen Brothers have been wholesaling fire- works from their store at 45 Arch street, and on advice of Judge Hun- gerford, did not take out a license under the itinerant vendors act, The case was in the nature of a test of the act. The reckless driving charge against Paul Balomyzy, aged 21, of 18 alle street, was nolled by Prosccuting Attorney Woods, who told Judge Saxe an investigation into the facts of an accident at Stanley and Allen streets on June 20, which resulted in the arrest, indicated that the elements necessary to a success- ful prosecution in the criminal ! courts were not present.

C. Russian War Debt and Collateral in Bank of England Not Included in Fund. Paris, June 28 (M — Heavy gold backing of the new French franc of | over 40 per cent is shown in the first weekly Bank of France statement under the gold standard which was issued today. The statement reveals that the bank's books have been entirely cleared of bad accounts such as the Russian war debt and have been cleared also of the French gold held in the Bank of England as collateral on war loan, Under the monetary law a gold reserve of only 35 per cent was re- quired. The United States Federal Reserve bank is credited in a semi-official statement with much aid in accum- ulating the gold stock. All pre-war gold reserve, previous- ly carried on the basis of valuation in Nupoleon’s time, is calculated at the new rate under the stabilization law.
