Worthless Checks
Halt Spectators
At ROckaWay. N. Y.

New York, Aug. 4.-(AP)-A flood
Of worthless checks returned by Rock
away banks today dampened the fam
ing enthusiasm of thousands of spec
ulators~ trying to become rich over
night through the land boom which
started two weeks ago when an or
dinance assuring Rockaway of a ST.
100000 municipal boardwalk was
passed.
Real estate operators fear that many
contracts will be voided because they
were originally hoated on worthless
checks.
In the early days Of the boom url-
certified checks were accepted as first
payments on lots. Many deliberately
gave checks for which they had no
funds in the hope that they could
quickly resell and cover them.
Spectators today were demanding
certified checks or cash as first pay
mentS.
