he DOTTED the leather apron, but be-
came the wealthy citizen again as he
sprang into his automobile and drove
to his home for luncheon. In the aft

The reason for the reduction OF

The resaon for the reduction OF

Monday the Central Leather company

Quired the Harrington works. Georges
resignation of his $4,000 position was
demanded and promptly refused, be-
cause he holds a salary contract good

The action Of the trust was swift and
radical. It was discovered by the
trust officials that the contract was
valid until June 10, SO it was deter
mined to force out George by other
