call it to have been that the appoint

and that at any time that the deposit

and the appointment of some one else
in his stead the court would be glad
to entertain such petition ard appoint

fact does in no way reflect upon the

The appointment of FIR Lockhart

receiving congratulations of many
upon his appointment, all believing
taat great results will and can be
accomplished by the new receiver.
While nothing directly has been
