NEW STATUTE ON | PAY ATTACHMENT
Credit Bureau Acquaints Local Members With
 New Court Features

The Waterbury Credit Rating Bu- reau, in letters to its members to- day, calls attention to a new state statute regarding garnishment of wages. The law, modifying an act of two years ago which forbade the attachment of wages, provides that a creditor may secure an execution order in court allowing the placing of a lien on the wages of debtor.
 Previously, a creditor could hale 8 debtor into court and secure a pay ment order. However, if the debtor did not pay as ordered, the only ac- ton that could be taken against him would be on the basis of contempt of court.
 After an execution is secured, If the debtor has not previously com piled with the court order against him, the lien shall be a continuing one, and part of the debtors wages must be paid on the bill weekly until the bill has been paid in full. The new act provides that applica- tions for modification of payment orders may be made by either party.
 The act provides for repeal of Sec- tion 864-D of the 1887 supplement to the General Statutes.
