NEW STEP IN FAILURE.
Cleveland Discount Company May
Have to Reveal Accounts.

CLEVELAND. Ohio. October L.
Carl ID. Friebolin. special master, has
in effect recommended to Federal
Judge d. G. Westenhaver that the
federal court determine whether the
Cleveland Discount Company is bank
rupt.
The findings Of Mr.. Friebolin. pro-
vided they are sustained BY Judge
Westenhaver, open the way for cred
itors of the discount company, which
is now in receiyership. to have full
hearing on the merits of petition in
bankruptcy filed by three statesmen
as creditors when the company went
into receivershfp last winter.
If the creditors who interyened can
prove the statements IN their petit
tion, the company can be declared
bankrupt under federal laws, and the
receivershfp which has been admin
istering the company's complicated
affairs since February % may give
way to trustee in bankruptcy.
The decision, in effect, holds it pos
sible for the federal bankruptcy court
to require the discount company to
reveal its exact financial condition.
