DAMAGES
SOUGHT IN COURT

A suit for $4,000 damages has
been brought by Rose Machamkis
and Nathan Prominger. trading as
the Perth Amboy Biscuit company
against David Goldsmith, Rose
Goldsmith and jacob Jarof. VIII
liam Newcorn represents the plain
tiff, while Jaroff is represented by
Morris Goldberger and Mr.. and Mrs.
Goldsmith by H. X. Golenbock of the
law firm of Wight. Wight & Golen-
book.
The suit is the outcome of the
sale of the Perth Amboy Biscuit
company by Goldsmith to Macham-
kis & Prominger. When the deal was
put through, Goldsmith is alleged
to have agreed not to enter directly
or indirectly in the biscuit or
ker business again.
Shortly after the business had
been sold. Goldsmith broke his
agreement by entering the Raritan
Biscuit company. his wife being in
charge instead of himself. The mat
ter was taken to the court of chan
Gerry by the Perth Amboy Biscuit
company, where a decision was rem
dered restraining the Goldsmiths
from doing business. The action for
damages is a direct outcome of the
decision rendered in the court of
cEancery.
