in the United States for which
they are taxed under the United

ing at any one time. For the privilege of buying in this manner the public pays a carrying charge of about F per cent, according to Mr. Bueick. He said that the saturation point in the automobile industry will be reached soon and then there will be stability.
 If man pays cash for his goods, he may go somewhere else when he buys next time, but if he has an open account at one store he is more likely to return, MT. Bueick said. therefore merchants want 10 have their customers buy on the deferred payment plan. This usually applies to men only because women have their favorite stores and will go there whether they have an account or not.
 MT. Bueick said that there is al- ways a social connection which i've cannot get away from. which is brought out by the expression keeping up with the Joneses.' h. stallment buying must overcome our hereditary horror of getting in debt"
 After Mir. Bueick had spoken, an informal discussion was held and members of the chapter asked diff ferent questions.

BUYING ON CREDIT STIMULATES TRADE
Situation Nothing to Worry About, Expert Tells Bankers

"Installment buying is nothing to worry about" said Marshall D.. Bueick, manager of the public re- lations department of the National association of credit men of New York. at a forum meeting of New Britain chapter, A. I. B., at the Burritt hotel last evening. Mir Bueick said that installment buy ing appeals to characteristic of the people which he called "con- spicuous consumption"
 It was the first forum meeting ever held by the New Britain chapter of the American Institute of Banking. There were about 40 present including bankers from Plainville. and Hartford.
 Mir. Bueck said that the most prosperous industries today are those which depend on installment buying. The doctor, butcher, and coal man lose out and are among those who are complaining of the evils of this practice. During the past year there has been s6,500,- 000,000 of goods sold on this plan in the country. Of this amount there is never over 42 per cent outstand-

body and that he would like to see the court carry out a fitting cere- mony as a climax to well done tasks.
 Executive Erickson believes the present system is an injustice to the court, to the boys. and to the men of the community. The court is loaded with the work of questioning each applicant to pass upon his fit ness. The scouts are passed by non- experts and are deprived of the chance to make actual contacts with men holding responsible positions in the fields covered by merit badges. These men are also deprived of the chance to meet the boys and be- come interested in the scouting movement.
 A tentative list of experts has been drawn up. and Executive Erickson is now seeking to secure the services of these men.

 The duke for some time has at tended the Roman Catholic church of St. Aloysius at Oxford. The Roman Catholic authority is said to have declared that nothing more can be done for a duke than for a tramp so far as the church is con- cerned.
 Consuelo Vanderbilt Is a daughter of the late William K. Vanderbilt of New York. Her wedding to Charles Richards John Spencer Churchill, ninth duke of Marlborough was solemnized in St. Thomas church in New York. It was regarded love match. Consuelo was beautiful and wealthy.
 The desire of the duke to join the Roman Catholic faith by having the Holy See annul his first marriage illeiy Dc lllt cl toll- flict with the Oxford diocese of the Church of England. In 1922 the Bishop of Oxford wrote the duke requesting him not to attend the Oxford diocesan conference. The bishop informed the duke that he could not admit that the nobleman had the status of q communicant as the law of the church made it clear that it did not recognize di- vorce.
 s The divorce law reform union. however, took the attitude that the church had no right to override the laws of the country. It contended that Marlborough had been legally remarried whereas the law of the church declared that he had con- tracted an illegitimate union.
