|0f Father Of 5
Allows Man Some Of
His Wages After
Hearing Of Plight

a father OF five children and
a janitor with arthritis yesterday
got sympathetic consideration
from Municipal Court Judge
Milton s. Kronheim. jr.
The 37-year-old Rockville
tMd.) father who works in a
District bakery testified that his
employer held back $72 from
his pay after a court-ordered
garnishment in favor of Marvins
Credit Store Of the TOO block
of Seventh street NV.
! After the S72 was held back,
the father said he could not pay
his bills and his cooking gas was
shut OF. He said his wife was
lin a mental hospital and he did
the family cooking on an electric
hot plate.
/ "I1l do anything 7 can to help
feed this mans five children, "
said Judge Kronheim. The
Judge asked Jack Politz. lawyer
for Marvins, to release the $72
to the bakery worker since he
was paying the store IS q week
on his $3.50 debt.
/ But Mr.. Politz said the bakery
worker was not entitled to the
money even though he was max
ling the weekly SIS payments.
4 William j. Donnelly. jr., court
appointed lawyer for the bakery
worker. told the court: with
$48 he can pay his gas BILL"
S32 Of Pay Released
4 Finally Mr.. Politz agreed to
release $32 to the worker on con-
Idition that he continue the SIS
weekly payments. The remain
ing $40 is still held by the bak-
cry for Marvin's.
In the case Of the $50-a-
month janitor. Judge Kronheim
warned the janitor's employer
that the present District law puts
the burden Of proof on an en-
ployer to show that advance pay
ments to a worker are not to
avoid garnishment action.
/ IT don't think you paid this
man in advance to avoid paying
these garnishments," the Judge
told Harry D. Gordon. The
Judge denied a motion by Holly
lwood Credit Clothing Store OF
the 700 block of Seventh street
NV. to force Mr.. Gordon te
pay the janitor's debt.
Lawyer Defends Law
/ "In every garnishment which
has been issued in this case. you
have advanced this man money
before his regular pay was due. .
said Mr.. Politz. lawyer for the
Hollywood store.
/ IF ] had known that was
illegal. I would have advanced
the man money out OF my own
pocket" said Mr.. Gordon.
] I'VE don't have substantial
Justice here" said Slater Clark,
lawyer for the janitor. I'VE have
Justice under law"
But Mr.. Politz. who represents
most credit stores in many Mu-
lnicipal Court cases. defended
the law.
I'VE look at this from the
standpoint of those who made
the law. good or bad though 1t
may be-" said Mr.. Politz. THE
law is in favor Of the payment
lof the Judgment.
Doubts Harassment
Judge Kronheim agreed that
the law was on the side Of Mr.
Politz. The judge ordered struck
from the record all testimony
about the bakery workers wife,
children and hot plate. The
judge also ordered struck from
the record testimony about the
janitors arthritis.
THE arthritis is not properly
in evidence" Judge Kronheim
told Mr.. Gordon. These people
wouldn't dream of harassine
you. but they're certainly going
to enforce their legal rights"
Mr.. Gordon agreed to hold
back money regularly from the
janitor's pay to satisfy the gar
nishment order by the court for
the Hollywood concern.
