CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, Dec. 49,
The recent collapse of the stock
market was believed responsible to-
day for the bursting of another
"Ponzi" financial bubble, the myS-
FERROUS So per cent dividend business
Of Elmer S. Huckins and his son,
George.
An unpaid $4,000 note, passing of
the regular dividend date and dis
appearance of both financierS indi-
Gated that the scheme, which sue
ceSsfuIly bore investigation by postal
authorities some months ago, was in
difficulties.
Court fights brought the Huckins
Investment company into national
prominence last summer. Fraud
charges, brought h. the postofice
department, were dropped when a
federal court found nothing illegal
about the payment of So per cent
dividends. The nature of the invest
ments never was disclosed.
Inquiry at banks here and in
Hancock, Wis, home of the elder
Huckins, revealed that he and his
SON had withdrawn $250,000 within
the last two weeks and that bal
ances remaining we're not suffi-
cient to pay the $4,000 note.
Neither the father nor the son
could be located.

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, Dec.
13.-The return to duty Of forty
striking Haitian members of the fac
ulty of Damien Agricultural school
and loosening in a minor detail of
the strict military rule lent Gre
dence today to the belief that the
marine enforced martial law, de-
clared in Haiti last week after stu
dent strike riots, would be lifted
soon.
There was no official comment on
the subject.
The strike of the students of the
Damien school continued today, al
though Justin H. Sam. leader of the
students, explained that under the
provisions Of the martial law the
students were forbidden to gather,
and for that reason could not meet
to vote for an end Of their strike.
All students are willing to return,
Sam said.
The loosening of the martial law
was only in regard to the curfew
law. which was changed from 9 to
$50 p. m.
