BANKRUPT HEIRESS
spent HER WEALTH
Dissipated S25O,0OO Fortune in
-Four Years

New York, July ia petition In
bankruptcy was filed yesterday by
Mrs. Marie Eugene Fallon in the fed
eral district court showing liabilities
of $36,25s and no assets. Mrs. Fallon
four years ago inherited s250,ooo
from the estate of her father, Charles
d. Ely, president Of the Clyde Glass
Works of Clyde, N Y. The family
was known in this city and her credit
was good at the stores in which she
maintained large accounts.
She was not to be found yesterday
at her address, 24o West Ninety
eighth street. Attendants in the
apartment house said that she had
not been seen there for several weeks.
She was supposed also to have suite
at the Hotel Commodore, but she was
not registered there. She was found
late last night in the Embassy hotel,
but refused to see anyone.
Due to her fathers prominence and
the amount of her inheritance, Fifth
avenue merchants did not question
her credit. The list of creditors in
cludes B. Altman & Co., s2,035; Tiff
fanny & Co., $3.50; Dreicer & Co.,
$751; Black, Starr & Frost, $3.50;
c. o. Gunther's Sons, s1,2o6, and
James G. Warren, a lawyer with Of
fees in the Times Building, $500.
She apparently is penniless. She is
represented in the legal proceedings
by Olcott, Bonynge, McManus G.
Ernst Her creditors believe her fl
nancial embarrassment is caused by
the fact that although she was ex-
hausting her principal, she made no
curtaiment In her domestic manage
ment. 1t is understood that the fam
lily fortune had diminished consider
ably in the past few years. making
It impossible for her to maintain her
self in the accustomed manner of her /
income. Credit men were astonished
yesterday at the f1ling of the petition.

TEACHER IS GIVEN
BACK HER RIGHTS
Also Will Receive $i6,661 in
Back Pay in New York

New York, July 1S.-The board OF

by an order of the supreme court,
signed by Justice Cohalan, to rein
state Miss Lena M. Zipfel, a teacher.

ture acted adversely on her petitions
until lass year, when a bin for her
reinstatement passed both houses,
but was vetoed by Gov. Miller. This
year she tried again, appearing at the
opening of the Legislative session and
personally interviewed each assem-
blyman and senator A bill was
passed and signed by Gov. Smith
which authorized review of the case
by the civil courts. e
The petitioner was denied fair
and impartial trial upon the charges
which resulted in her dismissal.
The charges were not proved.
All charges and proceedings now
on file against the petitioner with the
beard OF education of the city OF
New York were groundless and un-
substantial and should be annulled
with the same force and effect as If
the same had never been brought or
preferred against the said petitioner.

ruled: ., ,' a .r
That the dismissal of the petit
toner, Lena. NJ. Zipfel, from her po-
sition as a teacher in the employ
ment of the board of education of
the city of New York oil June 2S
,2l6. was unjust and unlawful.

SEES MENACE IN CRUSHING
 INDIVIDUALITY OF WORKERS

MONTREAL, May 29-(Bv Asso- ciated Press )-The individual is the worlds biggest problem, Robert B Wolf, New York engineer. and in- dustrialist. declared today in an address on Management Engineering in the Paper Industry at the spring metaing of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
 Tn no other period of the world S history has tho group spirit found such material expression as in this 20th century development of corror- ate industry" said Mir. Wolf, who was member of the Hoover Committee on Elimination of Waste in Industry of the Federated American Engineer ing Societies.
 'In the past men have combined into groups for productive purposes but never before have we seen such grouping of groups and these larger groups into still larger corporate units, and the startling fact is that most of this has taken place within tho lifetime of the men who are still in active charge of ind1stry.
 "What is the meaning of it all and what is to become of the dn- diyidual men in the process? This, believe to be the most momentous problem confronting modern civiliza- tion, for if it is not solved, civiliza- tfon as now constituted cannot last. To crush out the individuality of the workman is fatal to human prog. ress and it is also fatal to destroy the individuality of our manufacturing or producing units.
 "The individual must be under stood, and the whole problem of in. dustry resolves itself into finding out man, to become conscious of his re- lationship to the alliincluding group individual, the plant.
 ''The secret socms to lie in stimu- lating group consciousness within the organic whole of tho plant by con- tinuously recording the groups rela- tionship to the plant on the one hand. and the man on the other, and the immediate need seems to be for the education of foremen to inteNli- gently direct the groups
