J.. Knoch, former pastor OF 81
Stephens church, has pointed the
way to make both ends meet.
He has turned to selling beer:
The Rev Mr. Knoch now owhs and

district. Beer signs are displayed
prominently.
The reverend, however. has

DENY APPLICATION
TO BUY DEPOSIT
One-FOurth of Value Offer
ed in Bankruptcy
Court
SEVERAL PROTEST i,

Referee Walter F. Torrance de.
MED an application presented in
the United States bankruptcy
court to-day which sought to pur-.
chase a deposit in the Merchants
Trust Co for one-fourth of its
value. The application was pre-
sented by Attorney Max D. Traurig
in behalf of creditor.
Attorney Traurig offered to pur-
chase for $3.50 cash the $2,6G1.85
deposit of Arthur Winer in the
Merchants Trust Co. Winer is
in bankruptcy and any action per-
tanning to his estate must be
brought in that court.
Attorney Herman j. Weisman,
trustee for the estate, objected to
the application of Attorney Trau-
rig on the grounds that the estate
had waited two years for two 10
per cent dividend payments and
that a further wait would hurt
no one.
Attorney Andrew D. Dawson,
counsel for the bankrupt, brought
the matter to the courts attention
Attorney Phillip N. Bernstein also
objected to the proposition in be.
