ger asked some questions of Castoria
who pushed him out of the ROOM.
According to the police Castoria and
his friends continued their onyer
sation when Gardner is said to have
heard some noise IN the corridor.
Opening the door the stranger who
was later identified as Angelo De-
losso, of Port Reading, fired at Cas-
toria twice injuring his right wrist.

CARTERET, April 12.-Chief of
Police Henry J. Harrington calmly
received the Jews of the decision of
Supreme Court Justice James ].

Torrance of my duties as chief.
There was never any hard feeling
towards anyone. Little things usu-
ally come up in the towns busl-

orders. The chief here also limited

able people and the present situa-
ton is prompting him for renewed

Point in bargaining.

and then calls attention to the bad
condition of tire the logical way
to meet the bargaining process is to
offer to make allowance for new

fairer deal and thus makes him more
enthusiastic in offering his wares
with the result that the prospect
catches his spirit and buys more
readily.

in selling cars to their friends find it
is advisable to have the buyer thor
oughly understand what he is getting
into so that there will be no come

If a dealer wants to accept the car
as part payment for new one, and if
the allowance seems fair enough. one
has but to consider the effect Of the
deal, and similar deals, on the deal
er's business. Ii he has a live used
car department and there Is demand
for what he handles one is safe
enough in disposing of the car that
way. But if it is plain that the car
is going to be a shelf-hanger the deal
er's offer should be declined and the
car disposed of to an individual. To
accept his allowance might mean
helping him get overstocked with
used cars to an extent where he
might fail and depreciate the new car
locally.

car business more or less, and moth
