difficult to collect. Certain big debt
ors actually let themselves be sued
before they will pay, while others will
settle after the matter has been
brought almost to the doorstep of the
courthouse. l have known OF cases
where women of social prominence
have actually left the city for long
periods when they have been sought
by collectors. just to show the credf-
tor stores where to get on 1t is
not because they could not meet their
obligations but. apparently feeling Sc
cured against any real annoyance by
their social position, because they
would not until they felt like 1t.
ct have known OF other cases in
which some of the city's best people
have deliberately threatened stores
that have turned over bills to collec-
tors with loss of business IL they did
not call the collectors off. Not only
have they threatened to stop patron
izing the offending store. but they
have said they would advise their
friends also to trade elsewhere.
while on the subject of best peo-
pis' II may be apropos to relate an
experience one of my collectors had
with a man who liz well known here.
After several unsuccessful attempts to
reach this man, my collector went ia
his house early one morning and got
past the butler on some pretext or
other. The man he sought was moi
up yet, so the collector sat down and
waited for him. After quite wait
the object of his quest entered the
room. The collector made known his
business, and very soon afterward dis
covered himself in a heap at the foot
Of the front steps. He had been pro-
PEELED there by the strong right arm
of the debtor. Finding himself not
hurt, he returned to the office and
reported The next day the creditor
store told us that check in payment
for the full account had been received
so the coup OF the collector, while
painful, was successful.
Another class of claims that are

The reason for this is that the aver
age woman, because she does not
realize the seriousness of 1t. has not
the dislike of court proceedings that
characterizes the average man. Fur
ther than this. the average woman has
a feeling that store will not go to
court for so small a matter as her
little unpaid account
Consistent dunning Is the only way
to obtain payments from this type of
women, not a few of whom live in
sumptuous apartment houses and are
very hard for a collector to reach in
person. However there are certain
strategies which can be employed
against that class of women which
sets out deliberately to cheat a store
or to cause a maximum amount of
trouble for everybody concerned be-
fore they pay up. These are the kind
of accounts that no good store wants,
so little objection Is made to the COL
lection methods that are used on
them. Legal proceedings are of lit
tie value I'm such cases, as many of
these debtors have already unsatis-
fed judgments against them.
Zone way have found successful

ally inaccessible is to call them UP

Can you imagine any woman being

this kind. without preliminary inqui-

type OF woman who uses friend az
a means of opening an account usually
owes money all over the city. II has
also been found that getting Sudg'

as the persons involved, living purely
on bluff. cannot satisfy them.

It IS NOT ALWAYS
EASY TO COLLECT
TYPICAL Experiences of Those Who
Try to Make Delinquent
Debtors Pay Up.

Some interesting sidelights on now
the ways of transgressors are made
hard-especially Of those who do not
bay with q fair degree of promptness
the bills they have contracted on
charge accounts--were cast yesterday
by Herman Steinberg, of New York
city. Mr.. Steinberg operates collec-
ton and claim record service that Is
used by many of the big local depart
ment stores and speciality shops.
While the individual claims that
come to my attention" he said, run
all the way from SIS to s35. 900. 1t is
not an unusual thing for some of the
Fifth avenue shops TO show a single
account as large as s250,000. In one
ease know of, In which the account
was given to an agent for collection.
the amount involved was s175.000.
Not only are the amounts of the
claims turned In for collection larger
in many cases than the average per-
son would suspect, but there are also
more of them. However, with the
improved methods of determining the
credit risks of persons who Apply for
accounts that are now available. II Is
highly probable that both the mum Der
and amounts of unpaid bills will be-
come smaller as time goes on.
That the retail credit man has been
hampered In the past by a lack of
facilities in obtaining adverse infor-
nation regarding applicants for ac-
counts is shown BY this instance: Not
long ago n certain Fifth avenue es-
Enlistment extended $4,000 credit to
4 patron who wss introduced by a
customer whose financial and social
standing Is unauestioned. The char
Acter of the introduction was In itself

the house. in following it's usual pol
icy, made its own investigation and
found that the applicant was socially
connected with some of the best fami-
lies in the city. Nothing derogatory
TO his credit and financial standing
Was found.
AT the time the credit was granted
however, my files showed two claims
for collection against this man. one
Of which had been paid. The other

Shortly thereafter three other claims
came into my office against the same
man. Not long ago II developed that

that live credit men are now making
use of every opportunity afforded
them for finding out unsatisfactory
things about an applicant for an ac'
count before II Is granted. in case Il
