West Philadelphians Sprout Whiskers
Perforce Because of New Rules.

Men living in West Philadelphia who
don't shave themselves are in guam
dary They have to get shaved before 5
o'clock at night or go scrubby-faced to
the office next morning. 1t is true that
they could get shaved in the morning,
but as the shops do not open until s

tween and Q, they won't take chances
of getting a hurried shave from a sleepy
barger in a bad humor.
It's all due to the Master BARRIERS As
sociation. The members contend that a
1o-hour day, a. m. to S p. m., is long
enough fot any man to work, and point
out that bricklayers and plumbers work
only eight.
To show that they meant business, the
12-hour BARRIERS paraded through West
Philadelphia last night with banners.
Some were to the point. The barber
has to cut all day. give him a chance
to cut up at night; I'VE get in a good

would you like to work forever? If
not, why us?" That's how some OF the
announcements ran. The men conducted
themselves we'll and won hundreds OF
sympathizers en- route.
Then, too, the organization had practi-
cal effect. At one shop where three or
four men were in the midst of shave.

ATTORNEY, ACCUSED
OF EMBEZZLEMENT,
TAKES DISBARMENT
Richard A. Baron Request
That Ruling Against Him
Be Made Absolute Grant
ed by Court.

Judge Barratt of Court of Common
Pleas No. 2, today made absolute rule
taken for the disbarment of Richard a.
Barron, an attorney with offices in the
Real Estate Trust Building. He was be-
fore the Board of Censors charged with
embezzlement of funds from an estate of
which Justice Robert NJ. Won Moschzisker
of the Supreme Court, and Henry T.
Blackburne are trustees. Barron studied
law in the same office with Justice Won
Moschzisker several years ago.
The proceedings for Barrons disbar-
ment originated in a complaint sent the
Board OF Censors in letter dated July
20 by Justice Won Moschzsker and his CO.
trustee Blackburne. The estate in which
Barron misappropriated funds was not
disclosed but it is believed to be the
Blackburne Estate. The protest against
Barron continuing the practice of an at
torney was as follows.
I'VE complain against Richard A. Bar
ron, of the Philadelphia bar, who has
represented an estate for which we are
trustees, in the capacity of an attorney
and agent for some years. 1t has re-
Gently been ascertained and brought to
our attention that Mr.. Barron has de-
llberately embezzled funds of said estate,
which fact he has admitted in written
statement showing his defalcation; he
has also been guilty of other mlsap-
propriations of funds entrusted to his
care; therefore, we pray that proper
proceedings may be taken for his dis
barment as one untitled to occupy the
position of attorney at law
The letter was signed by Robert M Won
MoschZisker and Henry 2. Blackburne
On the same day Barron wrote to the
board, stating, "a rule to show cause
in disbarment proceedings against me
will be presented to the proper court.
l have no answer to make, and request
the court having charge OF the matter
to make the rule absolute"
Judge Barratt before taking action gave
Barron opportunity to appear and purge
himself of the charges. The judge stated
that while an example should be made
of an attorney faithless In his trust TO
his client and the State. opportunity
should be afforded him to make an eN-
PLANTATION or show eXtenuating circum-
stances. The order of disbarment Is as
follows: "And now, September %, 1914,
upon consideration of the foregoing peti-
ton and answer. the court makes the
rule absolute and orders the prothonotary
to send copy of the rule and this
decree to all the courts
(Signed) Morris S. Barratt, j.
The petitioners for Barron's disbar-
ment were represented by A. T. Johnson,
S1s Real Estate Trust Building. This Is
one of the few instances where the prose-
cution Of faithless attorneys Is continued
by the Board of Censors to the point OF
actual disbarment. In several instances
attorneys have been suspended from prac-
tice for stated periods.
