SEEK TO CANCEL PORTION OF KLAN MEMBERS' DEBT Attorney Seeks To Wipe Insurance Subscriptions Off Accounts Receivable RAVENNA MAN IS SUED Members of Summit County Klan No. 27, who visioned a vast auditorium on Fir st.

five years ago, and backed up their faith in the Klan by taking stock in the Summit County Auditorium may have a portion of their debt burden lifted if an application filed in bankruptcy court is approved by Harry L. Snyder, local federal bankruptcy referee. The application to cancel a portion 1 of the debt has been filed by Harold Slabaugh, trustee of the Auditorium covering the stock subscriptions involving insurance policies. The Auditorium Co. promoters had several types of subscriptions to the project, one of which was coupled with an insurance policy.

The subscriber was to receive insurance double the amount of his stock subscription. Disposes of Question The insurance plan fell apart with the rest of the financial structure of the Auditorium Co. and the subscribers never got the insurance which went with the stock. Wiping the insurance subscriptions off the accounts receivable disposes of the question of the validity of the agreement, which was raised. Snyder has set no date for passing on the application.

On the other accounts of the Auditorium however, the collection system started following the bankruptcy heavings before Snyder last fall, is being continued. Payment is being sought on the basis of 60 per cent of the amount of the notes for outright stock subscriptions. The collection process is a slow one, as there were thousands of these subscriptions, Nearly 400 suits have been filed in municipal court, all for small amounts, the majority of the subscriptions running from $50 to $200. The stock sold for $25 a share. List Is Covered The list of subscribers is being slowly covered, and where collection is not by letter, a suit is prepared and filed." The first suit in Portage county, against William Taylor, 120 E.

Spruce Ravenna, was filed Friday. It seeks collection of $120, the unpaid portion of a subscription for eight shares of stock. Most of the stock subscriptions came from Summit county men and women. TWO AKRON EAGLES ATTEND CONVENTION Dr. G.
