REGARDED AS IMPORTANT.
Ruling Of Chief Justice Clabaugh in
Bankruptcy Case.

Chief Justice Cfabaush yesterday decided
what was recognized as an interesting
and important point under the federal
bankruptcy law. He held that q trustee
In bankruptcy Is entitled TO the surrender
held by the bankrupt, even though the
beneficiary named in the policies is the
wife Of the bankrupt.
The question arose on the demand Of
VIM. A. Hall. the trustee in bankruptcy
of E. G. Rowzee. a local cigar dealer, for
the surrender Of the life insurance of
Rowzee. in which his wife Is named as
beneficiary. or in lieu thereof Of the pay
ment by the bankrupt Of the ascertained
value Of the polocies.
Rowzee denied the right of the trustee
to the possession of the policies or their
value. and claimed them to be exempt
under the bankruptcy law.
Arguments were first made before Ref
cree Edwin s. McCalmont. who decided In
favor of the trustee. Rowzee had the
question certified to Chief Justice Cha.
who sustained the ruling Of the referee.
Mr. Rowzee's contention is that the
policies are exempt under the code, and
as the bankruptcy NV provides ex-
emptions when made by local statute,
these policies should not go to the trustee.
emption law was Sufficiently broad to
cover the policies in question. The latter
view was taken by the CHIEF Justice.

JOHNSON ASKS $50, 900, 900.
Would Have the Ohio Legislature
Aid Municipal Ownership Plan.

CLEVELAND, Ohio December 31.-T,he
Ohio legislature is to be asked by Mayor
Tom L. Johnson, through the Cuyahoga
county delegation, to open the way to his
realization of his municipal ownership
program by raising the barriers on bond
issues that he may obtain $6oOOO.O0O
Members of the delegation asserted
a belief that combinations could be
made in this winters session for
one of two methods of raising the money
needed to finance the electric lighting,
sasmaking and piping and street rail-
way operations by the city that the
mayor recently announced he would bring
about.
One of the methods. the one to be
sought first is the amending Of the
Longworth act. which limits bond is
sues by cities to | per cent. of the tax
duplicate each year and to an absolute
limit of per cent. to the end that q
higher limit be fixed. With this a joint
amendment to the act governing ap-
pofntment of tax value fixing boa rds will
be urged that the mayor may name the
Cleveland board and boost the duplicate
at will
The alternative scheme is to authorize
the issue of industrial bonds. bonds whose
security shall be the city's property. light
and gas plants and street railways. not
the credit of the taxpayers property.
This is an old scheme. but never has
been urged before the legislature.
