 Fender Unused

Coroner John J. Phelan today filed a finding in the death of Anna Par adeina, aged 5, of Walnut St., Stam- ford, killed on December 6, when she was struck by a Connecticut Com pany's car on Walnut street that. city as she attempted to run across the street.

 It was found that the ear was eqiupped with a fender to guard against such accidents, but that the motorrnan had failed to drop it in position.
 After consideration of the question as to whether the. child would have been saved had this precaution been taken, the coroner finds that La rive was remiss and holds him respon- sible for the death. He has notified the prosecutor at Stamford of=his de- cisiOn and Larive will formally be charged with manslaughter.

Greenwich, Conn, Dec. 13-From the point of view of the officers of the Greenwich Savings Bank, which in- stitution was temporarily closed by the state bank commissioners to per- init of an audit of the books and ac- counts under their supervision yes terday, any supposed shortage in the funds is due to faulty bookkeeping.
 Officers stated today that the sup posed discrepancy has been reduced to $2,80O. Old methods of keeping the books, old style of bookkeeping and failure to be up-to-date in keep ing track of transactions are given as explanations.
 It is pointed out that some years ago a bookkeeper was over 80 years of age and he had his own way of keeping books, which was a little old fashioned. No question was ever raised, say the officers, about the ac- curacy of the bookkeeping and none
