ECHO OF APPS
CASE in COURT
II. C. Wade Trying to Straighten
Out Financial Tangle Caused
by Local "Wallingford"

An echo of the high finance op-
erations OF Frederick Apps, Detroits
most successful et-Rich-Quick Wal
lingford," was sounded in circuit
court Monday, when a hearing was
begun in the case of the Michigan
State Life Insurance Co. against its
founder, Apps
While this was the title of the case,
il was really an effort on the part OF
Howard c. Wade. general manager OF
the company, to get his affairs

The hearing did not progress be-
yond a few questions aimed at Wade,
who was on the stand Judge Hosmer
declared that from the information he
had that i'm his opinion the matter
could be settled out of court. The at
torneys agreed 10 this, and the case
was adjourned pending a settlement
out OF court.
Apps organized and held controlling
interest IN the lie insurance COHipdhl
and In Frederick Apps & Co, the Gen

and the General Securities Co When
the insurance company was organized
Apps offered Wade the position OF
general manager at a salary OF $4,000
a year and certain commissions. bo-
muses. and renewal premiums.
Needing money TO launch the rev
concern, Apps is alleged 20 have
drawn on Frederick Apps & Co. with
the understanding that the Apps con
cern was 30 collect premiums and bo-
muses. and pay Wade's salary, and in
return was TO receive share ~ the
profits. A wild tangle resulted with
claims and counter claims arising be
tween the Apps Co. and Wade, and
after APPS disappearance the com
plication became even more involved,
