The total purchase price in the
contract for all outstanding shares
of stock was at the rate of S120
per share and amounted to S30,120.
He said the amount of S17,500 could
not be conceived by him to repre-
sent liquidated damages even in
d case such as this where the ac-
tual amount of damages is diff
cult to ascertain"
He added that there was no evil
dencc or testimony to convince
him that there was a genuine pre-
estimate of such damages made by
the parties to the contract, and
that in his opinion the amount
was exceedingly high to be con-
sidered liquidated damages
He therefore said he would rule
that this provision of the contract
would not be enforced and the
amount stipulated construed as
penalty or forfeiture rather than
liquidated damages.
He said the undisputed testimony
clearly showed an actual loss of
5000 on the sale of stock as a
result of the breach and further

relief in having the contract de-
clared valid and binding and the
sum of SIT 500 to be considered as
liquidated damages and paid as
such to the respondents in the
event of the breach of contract
The other three respondents in the
transaction besides Zepp were
Karl Kahl, John Lilley and Dean
CoWie.
Judge Hamill, in his opinion,
pointed out that as a matter of law
there was not sufficient evidence
produced on behalf of the COM
plainant to sustain the allegation
of fraud or false misrepresenta-
ton and for that reason the pray
ers of the bill of complaint would
be denied
He said that testimony had clear
ly shown that the contract had been
preached by the complainant with
out fault or blame on the part of
the respondents who were ready to
fulfill their obligations under the
contract.
He said the only remaining point
was to decide whether paragraph
8 constituted penalty or liqui-
dated damages.

This time next year your favorite
reading Notwithstanding many
newspapers and agazines-may
not be around to continue the valu-
able contribution it makes to your
pleasure. information, culture and
knowledge
The reason? The House of Repre-
sentatives has passed a postal rate
increase bill which could-if fav-
ored by the Senate-mean the death
of many publications and conse-
quent unemployment for thousands
of loyal employees.
The Representatives who voted
for this confiscatory bill knew full
we'll that scores of small newspapers
and at least 80 magazines have been
forced to fold during the last dec
ade because of rising costs, Of
which postal rates played an i'm
portant part Consequently. they
cast their votes behind a cloak If
anonymity by agreeing that there
would be no roll call Facing re-
election in November. they did not
want their constituents to know
that they favored this onerous rate
bike.
Those who voted against the bill
IN most instances knew that the
measure would not accomplish its
purpose of increasing revenues. be-
cause it follows that if the sources
of income are dried up, the in
creases on the remaining sources
would not be sufficient to make up
the deficit.
Not only does the post office
budget overstate the so-called def
cit and fail to appropriate sufficient
funds for public services which
have nothing to do with carrying
mail, it also does not call for large
scale modernization to make hand
ling of the mails more efficient al
though it notes that mOdernization
is desirable Nor does it mention
that newspapers and magazines do
most of the mail handling under
their second class permits to elm
mate as much work as possible for
the most office of origin
The House bill at best will raise
only part of the revenue needed to
clear up the deficit; at worst, it will
increase the ranks of the unem-
ployed by decimating publications
and small businesses.
1t is to be hoped that the Sen
ate Post Office Committee will hold
hearings on the measure and, as a
consequence, modify it to preserve
the nations newspapers, magazines
and other businesses which depend
on the mails to make important
contributions to the gross national
product This is the only fair thing
to do
Meanwhile, everyone who enjoys
reading a good newspaper or maya
zine should let his Senators know
that the exhorbitant postal rates in
H. r. 1927 are a death tax" for

Meanwhile Weatherly took off.
Thereafter the breaks all went
against the challenger.
Weatherly, holding the wind
better, opened up a tremendous
lead while Gretel in desperate
CANDLES tried three different
Spinnakers with diminishing
returns. The defender had a
23-minute lead at the end of
the first round of the wind
ward-leeward course, which on
its second round became simply
two reaches due to a wind
shift. A freshening breeze in
the last 8 miles aided Gretel
in reducing the edge to 8 min
utes plus and from to 2 miles
in distance.
There was one personnel
change on Weatherly yesterday
