Andrews On stand
 Andrews. d resident of this city ! for 55 years and of Stanley Quarter l for 35 years, built the store nearly a quarter of a century ago. and fOr more than 10 years conducted q gen. i ,ral provision business there. In i 1915, the Kolodney interests leaS d Ithc premises. and in 1919, a 10 years lease was given Zoning came in 1925. placing the district under in" provisions of residence areas. Tn" store Was continued q non-Comorm ing use, which permitted it's con tinuancc provided it was net aban- doned for q period of more than a year. When Andrews sought 10 }o' open the place in July, he was ml with the argume1 Tt that it could not be occupied because it had not been used for more than 3r. to when he countered with a declaration that it has been in continuous use up to the time of the expiration of the lease, last July. It was on this issu2 that the case went to trial before Judge Jennings.
 Clerk Thomas Iindcr of the board Of adjustment, and J. E. Comstock,
 in whose name the appeal was brought. were heard yesterday. To- day, the hearing opened with Sam ucl kolodney on the stand.
 He identified q lease giving him
 the use of the building for a period of 10 years for q store, gasoline fill
 ing station and storage building. In 1925, he testified, the store was
 closed but for two years thereafter
 it was used fer storage purposes
 then discontinued because it Was

Police court today took on the appearance and developed the at mosphere of a metropolitan court- room at the conclusion of an i'm portant murder trial, when Judge Stanley J. Traceski discharged An ihony Casella, 30, of l05 Linden street, who was charged with en- beZzlement Of $1,73S.IS. The crowd cd gallery broke into applause and a sister of Casella rushed 10 his arms, sobbing and moaning with Joy, while hls estrangcd wife smiled with joy, and other female friends who had sat through the trial for more than two hours, cried with de- light.
 DubOwy Denounced
 Judge 1raccski, :n one Of the most severe alraignlncnts he has ever made of L complainant or other person appearing before him since lie has been on inc bench, scored the firm of DuboWy Brothers of 1O4 Commercial street, on whose cor plaint Casella was arrested. 'Thu criminal courts of this state have steadily refused to allow themselves 10 be ucd as collection agencies" he began. This case appears 10 tn , court to be a deliberate attempt on the part of the Dubowy Brothers to use It as such an agency and the at tempt i5 fragrant. The court con- Gemns embezzlement and will deal with it severely when properly pre- scnted and proved.
 In this case" he continued. "Mr. Duhowy has not been fair with the court. and his testimony has been a mass of contradictions. However. he clearly admits that he ncgotiat- cd settlement of this claim and at tempted to collect 1t before turning 1t over to the prosecuting authori- ties, and even threatened pr0secu- tion if settlement were not made. Punch Boards Factor
 ''TherC is further the element of an attempt to use the criminal court to collect for punch boards, illegal contrivanCes. The entire case is 1raught with clements contradictory to the purposes Of a criminal court of justice. The state has failed to prove it's case to the court and therefore discharge the accuscd." The demonstration in the gallery did not meet with the approval of Judge Traccski and he told the spectators so. Quiet was restored but as soon as he left the bench and court adjourned. the outbreak seemed 10 take on renewed en- thusiasm. Casella being surrounded

Find a Job.
It's Golden
Rule Week
BY CHARLES STELZLE
OF the Golden Rule Foundation


THERE are dozens Of things
u that need to be done in your
plant, in your home, or in your
neighborhood that would give jobs
to the unemployed.
This is a good time to keep your
plant, your house, your neigh
borhood from running down at
the heels"
Landlords might inspect their
property to see what 1t requires.
What about plumbing, painting,
papering, carpentering, cleaning?
Look at cellars. chimneys, side
walks, roofs. and area ways.
Storekeepers might take inyen-
tory of their stock. remove pack
ing cases from the cellar, paint
The woodwork. build those extra
shelves, have accounts audited, and
attend to cellar elevator.
Office managers might bring old
files up to date, rearrange parti-
tions, copy records. classify or
catalogue old material now lying
on shelves, and make new lists OF
old customers.
Housekeepers might clean attics
and closets, polish floors and fur
niture, have doors and locks adj
iusted, have carpets beaten,
tighten windows, mend library
books, clean garage. polish brass
work and silverware, and repair
windown shades and light fixtures.
These suggestions are by no
means exhaustive. They are
offered merely to start your mind
working on this very important
task.
This is Golden Rule week. If you
were out of job, what would you
have some other man do for you?
