BANKRUPTCY LAWS THEME OF ADDRESS (Continued from Page 1.) bankrupt proceedings by the creditors assets before the creditors participate. This is not the fault of the lawyers but of the system and it has resulted in lawyer control of bankruptcy proceedings instead of creditor control. Mr. Billig then explained how in New York those lawyers who specialize in bankrupts go gunning for them. When they find a business man who is near the edge they sce that he 1a pushed over the precipice and theff fee splitting starts.

The receiver, the trustee and all others are lawyers, and everybody, including the creditors, is represented by 8. lawyer and before they get through the estate is pretty thoroughly plucked and there is little left for the creditors. The Donovan report suggests the l1- censing of trustees and placing them under the control of the federal commissioner as a means of getting control of the estates out the hands of the lawyers. The licensing system is in use in England and was formerly used in Canada. Would Consult Creditors.

The Donovan report, Mr. Billig said, recommends an immediate appointment in each case of a trustee with regard as far as practicable to the wishes of the creditors. Such a reform would mean that 8 responsible liquidator would be in charge of the case from the beginning and it would mean the cutting down Another recominendation in the report which seeks to remedy abuses arising from the breakdown of creditor control is the provision to have inspectors or a creditors' committee named by the creditors. This body would have virtually the supreme power in charting the course of the liquidation. The Donovan report would committee power to act without court authority, would serve with out compensation and they would then see to it that the interests of the creditors are cared for.

It would get rid of lawyers and their fees with a vengeance. He pointed out that lawyers' fees have taken 14 per cent of the assets in Chicago, 10 per cent in New York and 6 per cent in Pittsburgh and Donovan committee would confine the duties 'of the attorneys to matters of a purely legal nature. Would Reduce Time. bankruptcy act as now constituted provides that a bankrupt, after the expiration of one month from his adjudication and within twelve months thereafter, muy upply for his disA further extension of six months muy be given. The Donovan commission would reduce the twelve period to six and the alx months' perlod to three.

"The report further recommends that the trustee be permitted to interpose objections to the bankrupt's discharge on his own motion." Mr. Billig auld that Donovan port strongly favored the immediate sale of stocks of goods of bankrupta. In many cases rents, maurance, almost entirely eat up their value and thus by the time the long drawn out proceedings are ended the creditor gets nothing. In concluding his address Mr. Billig pointed out that the Donovan roforms must be passed by congress before they can become a part of the bankruptey lawa and that it is the duty of the business men to acquaint their senators and congressmen with the situution 90 when the proposed billa are presented they may be passed without delay, Mr.

Billig was tendered a rising vote of thanks for his address which was received with rapt attention and approval by the business men in attendance. Others Make Addresses. Mr. Coffey In his introductory remurks said that the local credit body formed function in April last year. It began immediately and with such gratifying results to all concerned that it was decided to hold an anniversary celebration.

He first introduced Mr. Kerln, local manager, who briefly reviewed the work that has been done during year and of the steady growth of the service. Mr. Demmler, who is chairman of the adjustment bureau committee and a director of the National Association of Credit Men, showed how the work of the association is being extended and how the members are cooperating and helping each other. He urged that all make use of the system to the end that the number of business failures may bu redured and that those who fraudulently for fuil may be adequately punished their misdeeds.

He urged all to attend the national convention that will be held at Dallas, Tex. Mr. MacQueen in his remarks commended locul credit men for the loyal support and couperation they have extended. He then introduced Mr. Billig, whom he has known intimately for inany years.

Thirty-five years ago today the Altoona paid fire department was established. Prior to May 1, 1895,, the city was protected by a volunteer service. The change from a volunteer to a paid service WAS not made without a great deal of controversy and when the legislation WAS before aouncils there was strong opposition to overcome. The volunteers constituted a rather potent political factor in the city, for membership in the companies was by no means confined to those who actually part in the work of fighting the fires. It had become apparent, however, that the service would have to be placed on a more stable basis and.

88 a result the city took over the stations and the equipment. Most of the men who went into the paid Are department had seen service among the volunteers. of them are still in active service. The late Samuel M. Hoyer was then mayor and he requested Chief of Police J.

N. Tillard to organize the paid fire department. He assumed the responsibility and thus became the first chief of the department. He served for a year and was succeeded by W. P.

Pimlott who after a service of six years ceeded by the present chief, T. W. retired in 1902 and WAS Allemann. H. C.

Graybill has served Ag sistant chief ever since that office was created. He had been and came into the paid department 8 few days after it was established. The firemen still in service who started at the -beginning thirty-fve years ago are Harry Wolf, W. H. Baker and Joseph Cruse.

The paid department started with five companies or stations, manned by fourteen men. There 'are, now seven, while the two Pennsylvania railroad statione, known Nos. 7 and 8, regularly respond to city alarms. Three new fire stations have been built in the Intervening years and the personnel numbers about seventy men. It has long since been motorized.

Duo to annexations the beginning of last year, en 8 portion of the present city territory, focluding Juniata, Roselawn and Lakemont Terrace, is now served. by volunteer companies. Council has not yet established the paid service in those areas. ALTOONA DISPENSARY Ethel, D. 3, Bookchammer, was treated aged at 14, the of Al- Altoona hospital dispensary for abrasions of the left elbow and an abdominal contusion received in a fall.

Henry McConnoll, aged 13, son of Joseph McConnell of 1915 Fourteenth avenue, fractured his right elbow and had the injury attended to in the dispensary. Frank Dutrow, aged 17, a school boy living at 109 Lexington avenue, stepped on a nail, causing a wound of the right foot. The injury was treated in the hospital dispensary. The boy is a son of Mra. Bertha Dutrow, Pauline Guida, 4-month-old tot whose parents live in East Altoona, was treated for a rash on the face.

BITTER DISPUTE REACHES CLIMAX (Continued from Page 1.) is yet to be accompilshed in organizing the farmer to control production and that ultimately every commodity organization 85 It gains strength and exporience, will "become entirely of government aid and supervision." He gaid the farm board hoped to help the farmers organize "go that in the future in the marketing of their crops." He they will be able to protect themselves added that the farm board asks the "support of you business men, not as a generous act of charity to someone else, but because it is to your own best interests." Under the organization of the Chantber of Commerce various groups have the right to propose a resolution which reflects the sentiment of those particugroups, but It is not always possible to commit the entire membership of the Chamber of Commerce to a pal'ticular resolution. In tact the ber as a rule submits to referendum of its members resolutions on important mattera.

His opposition to the federal farm board policies has been revealed to congressional committees, and the a9- sumption is that he differs with Mr. Hoover as the latter is believed to be squarely behind the farm board and ita operations. Nevertheless the revoke in the ChantCommerve is signilicant of the difficulties that lie ahead for the furi board, particularly as the job of getting farmer support is not so readily accomplished in the face of competition and hostility from private groups operating in the grain market.

(Speciat to Altoona Mirror.) BEDFORD, May Pinchot, Republican candidate for governor, invaded Bedford county Tuesday. Twenty-five automobiles, loaded with friends and supporters from Bedford county, formed a welcoming caravan which met Pinchot at McConnellaburg and escorted him Into this county. The Breezewood band accompanied the party and added much to the program than at McConnellaburg, where more 1,000 persons gathered to hear the former governor. Tho Arst stop at Breezewood sons had gathered and the band was where a da crowd of more than 200 perplaying as arrived. Pinchot clasped the hands those who crowded around him and then made 8 brief but very effective talk from the porch of Boor's store.

was given 8. most hearty reception applause. the street lined up sides with At Everett, the escorting, cars found automobiles and the sidewalks crowded with persons awaiting Pinchot's arrival. The candidate was taken at once to the Stuckey theatre, the use of which had been generously donated by Mr. Stuckey.

W. D. Blackburn, chairman of the Pinchot county committee, presented Hon. George W. Derrick, who introduced former Governor Pinchot.

The drum corps of the American Legion of Everett furnished the music and added to the enthuslasm. Pinchot was the guest of honor at 8 banquet at Hotel Pennsylvania in Bedford Tuesday eventng. More than 200 guests were present, gathered from all parts of the county to honor candidate and among the number were many men and women of the county, prominent in its affairs. Following a verso of "America," led by Fred S. Sammel and the orchestra, Dr.

E. M. Stevens returned thanks. At the close of the excellent repast, Attorney Simon H. Sell, in a very fitting and able manner praised Governor Pinchot's fidelity to the people, his integrity, ability could be depended upon to and courage and said the people's rights the governor's office.

Mr. Sell then introduced ex-Governor Pinchot who, after the applanse had subsided, stated that he was scheduled for speech at the courthouse at 8 o'clock but in the brief time at his disposal he discussed the necessity of control and regulation of public utilities. Pinchot made reference to the demands upon Bedford by the state for new disposal plant and sewage system, stating that, while he was unalterably opposed to stream pollution, such pollution had to be considered In the sense of its harmfulness and in the light of the information he had on the subject, situations doing the greatest harm should be dealt with first, rather than comparatively minor conditions such as in Bedford. When Pinchot arrived at the courthouse he found it jammed with what was probably the largest and most enthusiastic crowd ever gathered there. Every seat was filled, the aisles were ante packed rooms solidly were filled, the space inand the library and side the rail being taken up with benches and chairs, It was necessary for candidate to take a position on the bench entering through the judge's chambers, A8 it was impossible for him to get down the main atale.

W. D. Blackburn presided very ably and called upon N. F. Richards of the Bedford County Grange, who spoke very effectively of Pinchot's stand in the interest of the farmer.

Following Mr. Richards, Attorney B. F. Madore traced his association with Pinchot back to Roosevelt days and suid that Pinchot stood now, and always stood for a Roosevelt square deal. Following the introduction of ex-Governor Pinchot by Mr.

Madore, the entire audlence rose and applauded loudly and enthusiastically for some time, as Mr. Pinchot rose to make his speech. The candidate discussed his platform planks, step by step, and in a clear, decisive manner made plain his position on every issue before the people. For more than an hour he held the close attention of the audience--an earnest audience of men and women who eagerly listened to his emphatic statements of campaign issues and very frequently burst into spontaneous applause. In conclusion, Pinchot said, "Whether or not you agree with me in all I say, you must agree that I have dodged nothing." Tremendous and prolonged applause greeted the conclusion of the speech, after which hundreds of persons fled past the candidate, greeting and shak-1 ing hands with him and giving asyurances of their support.

Music by the Bedford hand added to the enthusiasm preceding the gathering at the courthouse. Ex-Governor Pinchot took a day off at Bedford on Wednesday, saying that he needed this to get caught up with his correspondence and to get some rest and recreation, In the afternoon, accompanied by Fred S. Sammel, Dr. E. M.

Stevens, Milton Sammel and others, he went fishing in the country. returning to Bedford for the night and leaving this morning to continue his speaking tour.
