TRUSTEE LOSES
IN PROPERTY
APPEAL

"A Judgment in favor of Lou
renee P. Holman for damages suf.
fered when his property was fore
closed by N. E. Ryon, trustee, is
to be entered in District Supreme
Court today. under an order
handed down yesterday in the
District Court of Appeals.
The foreclosure was made to
satisfy trust in favor of Mrs.
Ryon, who had made a loan on
the property out of her private
funds, it was pointed out, and
Ryon was made trustee.
Relation Unknown
Holman did not know OF the
relation between lender and
trustee, it was said, and when
the property was sold under a
foreclosure it was purchased by
Mrs. Ryon.
The courts ruling does not
award Holman the entire amount
Of the value of the property,
which was assessed at $4,000 and
for which Mrs. Ryon paid $7OO
at the foreclosure sale.
The amount of the loan, fixed
at $1,000, is to be deducted and
the case referred to an auditor
for proper accounting.
Must Not Conflict
In rendering it's decision, the
Appellate Court remarked that it
is the duty of a trustee under a
deed of trust to conduct himself
In such a manner that his

DENMARK MAY
 GET BIG BOOST

London (UP)--Denmark, the lit- tie country which furnishes butter for Britains bread, may gain as much from the Ottawa conference as King Georges dominions them selves.
 Butter is the bigges itmen on the huge grocery bill that Great Britain annually pays abroad. It amounted last year to f46,358,000. And Den- mark is the chief source of supply.
 If Britain refuses to make fur ther agreements with the Irish Free State, all the butter that comes from that country will come up against a tariff wall. The Free State, Denmark's main competitor for Britich trade, will not be ex- exempt from this country's tariffs after Nov 15 unless the agreements are made, and Britain is insisting she will not make them.
 Little Denmark, therefore, will fall heir to a large part of the Free State's market for dairy products If the Anglo-I Irish crisis resolves itself into a real economic war Denmark will sell not only more butter, but more bacon, eggs and cream. The whole f126,O00,0Ol market for dairy products in this country will be opened to her more freely than ever before.

MOVE STARTED TO REVIVE OLD
 DRIVING CLUBS
Old Sport of Harness Racing Given New
 Impetus

Goshen. N. Y.-(UP)-The grand old sport of light harness racing took another long stride to- ward the glory 1t knew at the turn of the present century. in an nouncement of the decision of Will liam H. Cane, president of the Goshen Mile Track association, to attempt revival of the once famous League of Amateur Driving clubs,
 Thirty-two years ago, that or ganization, with affiliated clubs in New York, Cleveland, Boston, Pitts burgh, Chicago, Memphis, Syracuse and Columbus, bestowed on the trotting horse the greatest prestige it knew in more than a century's $ existence as sporting figure.
 Canes decision to revive the movement among the many prom inent men whose hobby is light harness racing, is another signifi- cant step in the recreation of pub lie interest in the sport.
 The Driving Clubs. which brought together in intercity match races. the various clubs in the league, have had no parallel in any of the modern sports.
 Many of the prominent men. who, 30 years ago, were active in the affairs of the League of Anna teur Driving Clubs, still are en- gagged is breeding and racing, trot- ting and pacing horses. They in- clude Henry Oliver of Pittsburgh; c. K. G. Billings. of New York; H. A.. Waterson, of Cleveland; George A. Graves and Harry c. Thayre, of Boston, and many others.
 The League of Amateur Driving Clubs was organized in 1900 after a number of individual organizations had proven the widespread interest in the movement,

THREE LAW SUITS ARE
 DECIDED
State Supreme Court Found Error in Two LO= cal Cases and No Error in One-Were All Tried in Courts Here

Hartford, Aug 3-(UP)-Error was found by the state supreme court to-day and the cause re- manded with direction in the case of Rose Senzamici against the Wa terbury Castings company and others, an appeal from the com pensation commissioner for the 5th Congressional district, brought in the superior court for New Haven county, where judgment was entered and the cause re- manded to the comniis toner with to the claimant.
 The claimant was the wife of the late Frank Senzamici, who died April 13, 1928 from influenza which resulted in pneumonia. He was up to the time of his illness employed by the defendant company but the compensation commissioner held that the claimant did not show that the illness was not casually connected with his employment. The supreme court finds that the commissioner could not be prevent ed from givin gcredence to medical testimony offered by the plaintiff which was conflicting and. that "the finding of the commissioner, based upon this conflicting evil dence, must stand, and neither the superior court nor this court can disturb it. The high tribunal di- |rects the superior court to enter judgment dismissing the appeal.
 Hartford, Aug 3-(UP)-Error was found by the state supreme court and new trial ordered in the action for an accounting of profits in general business enter prise and for other relief, brought in the court of common pleas for New Haven county at Waterbury by Catherine Vaszauskas against Joseph Vaszauskas in which the court gave judgment for the de- fendant. The plaintiff brought this action against her husband, asking for an accounting of the profits made in their joint business during their married life and for a decree

Judge Beardsley's Ruling Found Faulty
 By Supreme Court
Catherine Vascaukas Will Be Given Another Op- portunity for Division of Profits Realized From Illegal Liquor Business in Which She and Eius- band Were Partners

in which they were partners.
 In the common pleas court for mer Judge Harry J. Beardsley, who was on the bench at the time, rul- ed that Mrs Vascauskas could not recover because she was engaged in an illegal business. He ordered the action dismissed.
 The supreme court ruled today that while the business might have been illegal Mrs Vasacuskas was entitled to recover for any services she might have rendered in con- nection with. the business. This means that the suit must be tried in the common pleas court and that Judge Beardsley's ruling is overruled.
 Attorneys Michael V. Blansfield and Herman B. Engelman repre- sent the plaintiff. They appeared in the supreme court on the motion to overrule Judge Beardsley's decision. Their victory now means that when the September civil term is opened the action will be set down for another hearing by Judge Edward J. Finn or Deputy Judge Miles F. McNiff.

for 200 feet and over. This ap- plies to the use of every kind of pleasure boat and is expected to yield $500.00O a year.
 Using very modest prices, let's see what a fisherman would pay in tax on a new outfit: Figure his rod and reel at $10, a half dozen casting baits at s6, a fly rod at $10, a reel for the same at S2, flies at $2 and tackle at $5. That's total of $35, on which the tax Is 10 per cent of the manufac- turer's sale price, though many merchants collect 1t on the basis of the retail price.
 The hunter pays about $25 for double-bar shotgun, on which the tax is 10 per cent. On a days hunt, he may shoot a box of shells which cost him about $1 and on which the tax is also 10 per cent.
 Apparently, Uncle Sam doesn't overlook the gangster since the tax on firearms specifically in- cludes machine guns. Pistols and revolvers are exempt from this tax, since they are covered by an older tax. However, the new tax ap- plies to ammunition for all wea- pons. Treasury experts estimated the new tax on firearms and am- munition will yield $2,000,000 q year.
