Head Of Motion Picture Industry in
Address at Pittsburgh Says "Good
Times" Are Just Around
The Corner.

Pittsburgh, May 26. Prosperity
is right ahead of us, and it is time to

ducers and Distributors of America,
asserted today, addressing an audi
ence at Carnegie Institute here.
Let us lay bricks. not throw
them" he said.
I'VE have not been in a period of
hard times coming, but of soft times
going. A lot of business has been
staggering with the shellshock of war,
after the debauch of extravaganza, but
there has been a good deal more busi-
ness merely malingering. There have
ben commercial slackers."
Hays spoke briefly on the subject of
censorship, declaring the public the
real censor for the motion picture,
"just as it for the press and the pull
pit"

BONDING COMPANY
MUST PAY BOND OF
|. Y. WILLIAMS
Judgment Rendered Compelling Bond
Company to Pay Loan Association
Defaultlng Secretary's
Bond.
(Ripley Bee.)

NhiPASy DSS.J
The important case of Chambers
Baird, receiver Of the Peoples Build
ing and Loan Co., of Ripley, against
l.. V. Williams and American Guaran-
tee Co., of Columbus, Ohio, on the
surety bond for $4,000 of Williams as
defaulting secretary of the Building
and Loan Company, was on trial last
week in the Common Pleas Court, at
Georgetown, before a jury and Judge
Jas. w. Tarbell.
The trial lasted from Monday morn
ing until Friday evening and was Bit
terly contested.
The jury returned judgment
against Williams and the American
Guaranty Co. for the full amount of
the bond of $4,000.
Messrs. E. r. Young, of Ripley. and
o. f Young. of Georgetown, were at
torneys for the receiver, and Mr.. R.
L. Fite, of Georgetown, and Mr.. Kahle,
Of Columbus, were attorneys for the
defendants. The receiver was also
assisted in the trial by Mr.. Nicholas
Risch. OF Cincinnati, former State Ex-
aminer Of building and loan associa-
tions, who discovered the shortage in
October, 1920, and by Mr., Edward l..
Campbell. Of Ripley. These two gen.
tlemen performed most of the heavy
work in preparing for the trial and
presenting the proofs of the embezzle-
ment All of the books and property
of the Peoples Building and Loan Co.,
making truck load, was transported
to GEORGETOWN and used in the court
room, making the largest amount of
documentary material ever presented
in a case in this court.
The surety bond for $4,000 on
which suit was entered was dated
March Z, 1916 and the receiver was
limited to making proof of shortage
since that time to October, 1920, when
Williams gave himself up.
A shortage of over $1,000 was
claimed, and proof of over $51 1000 was
finally presented to the jury. A large
number OF witnesses were called and
heard. The defense of the American
Guaranty Company, was entirely tech
nical. as they could not deny the
proofs fthe large shortage. Their
chief claim of defense was that at the
time when they issued their first bond
of s2,500 for L. V. Williams as secre-
tary in 1913, a statement Of the affairs
and condition Of the Peoples Building
and Loan Co. was made by the COM
pany showing that it was in good
shape and that no shortage then exist
ed. It was claimed that this statement
was untrue, and that as the Guaranty
Co. relied on 1t they were not liable
ON the bond. But no proof was offered
not admitted that the officers of the
Peoples Building and Loan Co., other
than l.. v. Williams had any knowl-
edge of any crookedness. In addition
L. v. Williams, who made application
for the bond and who was the only
guilty party, was also the agent of the
Surety Company. Thus their only
material defense failed, and the jury
promptly returned a judgment against
them.

yond question OF doubt that Troy actually
existed and thnt the war with Greece was
an historical occurrence.
Strange as II may SEEM the exact loca-
tion OF the city had been forgotten. and
II was only when the great mound OF
Iiissnrik was uncovered that scientists
accepted this spot as the place where tho
many.gated Troy once stood.
No less than nine strata OF ruins have
been gradually unenrthed Fortunately for
the investigator, tho ancient builders did
not clear away the ruins when they wanted
TO rebuild, but erected their structures on
the remains beneath.
The lowest stratum goes back almost TO
the cayeman age. Stone axes and rude
bronze instruments were found. Other
strata show advancing stages OF civiliza-
tiOn. up 10 comparatively modern Greek
city which was destroyed In the year 85
B. G.
The sixth stratum IA the one identified
with the Troy of Homer, and Ia supposed
10 date from about 1000 D. G.. II shows
the remains OF great wall and OF palace
erected on the Acropolis, and even gives
evidence that the city was destroyed by
a violent contlaaration such as Homer de-
scribed.
Among these ruins the archaeologists
have discovered vases, painted pottery.
magnificent vessels Of gold, silver and
bronze. They have found weapons, armor.
jewelry; gold aud silver bracelets, somo
OF them massive ana beautiful, OF the very
kind that Helen wore, but chainless;
