account as soon as possible. after
the State Department of Banking
had assumed control of the Peoples’
Bank. He said he had received
the loan in cash.
Hoffman recalled that the $11,-
000 given to him by his mother was
in the form of certificates, some of
which he cashed immediately. Part
of the money, he declared, was used
to defray his household expenses,
had been given to his father and
mother. A part of the $11,000 was
used to purchase stock certificates
in the Peoples’ Bank.
When questioned by B. J. Myers
relative to the final disposition of
part of the certificates, Hoffman
said he had given some to a Mr.
Marks, of Philadelphia, who said
he would dispose of them. Marks
had been an accountant for the
Hoffmans, ore
Unable to Find Marks
The witness was unable to “state
definitely if Marks had sold any of
the certificates, explaining he was
unable to locate the accountant
when he was in Philadelphia last
week.
The attorney then asked Hoff-
man to present a detailed account
of his personal and traveling ex-
penses, the number and amount of
certificates he gave to Marks, and
how much money he possessed
when the petition in bankruptey
was filed, at the next hearing.
The certificate for 71 shares of
Columbia Body Corporation stock,
in the name of M. R. Hoffman,
but held by N. R. Hoffman, was
turned over to the referee.
It was announced that A. B.
Hess, president of ‘the Hess-Purdy
Company, of which M. R. Hoffman
Sr., is a stockholder, would give a
detailed statement of its financial
condition at the next meeting.
Stock Holdings Listed
M. R. Hoffman Sr., stated he
was a stockholder in the Hess-Pur-
dy Company, of Louisiana, holding
296 shares. He thought it a good
investment as the stock was sold
at $100 per share. The firm is en-
gaged in timber business.
Hoffman said he was a stockhold
er in the E. R. Miller Company,
of Webb City, Mo,. but he knew
nothing about the They
manufacture cigars. He had about
$25,000 invested.
In the firm of Smalz and Com-
pany, of Womelsdorf, Pa., he held
220 shares of stock. He was ask-
ed to obtain a statement of the
condition of the firm and present
it at the next meeting.
Adjournment was taken until
next Tuesday afternoon at 2 P. M.
A Violent Storm
In This Section
(From page One)
Lancaster, stopped for shelter un-
der a large maple tree. The tree
was broken in half when struck
by lightning and a large limb fell
over the top of his machine. The
occupants managed to get out of
the car uninjured. After the
storm subsided the wrecking der-
rick of the Forney Brothers garage
removed the tree. The only dam-
age caused was the large hole brok-
en in the top of the car.
The most damage was done by
the hail which were very plentiful
the size of a hen’s egg, while the
smaller ones could be shoveled up
as the ground was white as though
it had snowed.
Along the Scravel pike, leading
from Falmouth east, thru Newville
to Elizabethtown, the hail storm
was the worst. The corn fields
were butchered and tobacco and
potatoes were badly cut.
The writer happened to be in
the worst of this storm, seeking
shelter in the shed at the church
west of Newville. He saw several
autos, the tops of which looked az
though shot thru with shrapnel. He
saw half a dozen hail stones the
size of a base ball. This seems
exaggerated but it is nevertheless
true. Among others who saw them
that size were Jacob M. _Schroll,
Misses Pearl and Dorothy Schroll,
Mrs. R. R. Lauer, and a number
of people at Elizabethtown.
Damage at Salunga
In the vicinity of Salunga
storm was the worst in years,
rin flooding cellars and the
stones breaking window
the same time that the lightning
was playing all around, although
not doing any great damage. The
tobacco plants are shredded and
the corn crop in the vicinity is bad
ly damaged, although it is impos-
sible to secure a dollars and cents
estimate eof the loss.
Petersburg Suffers
the
the
hail-
panes at
fered heavily from the hail. Fields
of growing vegetables were badly
damaged and the tobacco fields suf-
fered heavily. The tobacco in that
vicinity was as far advanced as
any in the county. Fruit farms in
that ‘section report damage to their
trees, some of which were washed
out or blown over.
Tobacco Crop Ruined
The tobacco crop of Mr. Abram
Long, along the concrete highway
east of Landisville, which was the
finest in that section, was badly
damaged.

by a bill in equity, was adopted

And whereas, there is grave
doubt as to the legal authority in
the County Commissioners of Lan-
caster county to expend taxpayer's
money ‘for the erection and main-
tenance if light houses along: the
highways contrdlled and maintain-
ed by the State Highway Depart-
ment.
Therefore, be it resolved that a
committee of five be appointed by
the President of the Lancaster
Automobile Club to protect the
taxpayers of Lancaster county
from the expenditure of any mon-
ey for such purposes; and that said
committee be authorized and em-

powered, if necessary, to file a bill
in equity in behalf of all of the
taxpayers of Lancaster ‘county to |
enjoin the County Commissioners |
of Lancaster county from so doing. |
Want Roads Freed |
The freeing of the remaining toll |
roads of the county came under !
fire likewise, and a resolution pre- |
sented by S. Edward Gable, presi- |
dent, urging immediate action to |
this end by the county commission-
ers was unanimously adopted.
The resolution presented by Mr.
Gable is:
Whereas: Lancaster county com:
monly known as the Garden Spot
of the United States still has a few
toll roads within its borders, the
most important which are (1st),
the Lancaster and Lititz and (2nd)
the Lancaster’ and Mechanicsburg,
whereon free transportation is not
enjoyed ‘and which roads are relics
of the past ages, and
Whereas: These remaining toll
roads are practically the only ones
left in the State of Pennsylvania,
or even in the United States, and
of right should be free avenues of
public transportation, and
Whereas: We are now celebrat-
ing the liberty and freedom of 17-
76 which our forefathers so nobly
attained for us.
Therefore, be it resolved, that
we urge the County Commissioners
of Lancaster county to join in this
celebration of liberty and freedom
by freeing all the remaining toll
roads in Lancaster county this
vear, thereby giving equal freedom
of travel to citizens living along
these roads or others using them
together with all others living on
other free roads all of which pay
taxes in equal proportion and hence
deserve equal rights, i. e. free
roads.
‘And be it further resolved: That
we recommend after October 15,
1926, markers. be placed alpng any
toll road or roads still existing in
this county explaining the reason
why such bondage still exists in
the Garden Spot.
On motion of
0000
Secretary J. G.
Forney, a committee consisting of
two members living along the Lit-
itz turnpike. and two otrers,
be appointed to confer with State
Highway officials, to urge State ac-
tion -on the freeing of this road.
Picnic at Reading
Plans for the annual club picnic
to be held this year at Carsonia
Park, Reading, on August 12, were
diseussed. President Gable an-
nounced that instead of the club
purchasing a lot of souvenirs and
trinkets for the children, strip tick
ets good on every amusement of
the park will be given them.
Mr. Gable also urged that the
alleged ‘humorous’ signs common-
Ny affixed to the license plates of
thé\carvbe removed by club mem-
bers. The New Jersey Highway
Commission has ruled that they
are dangerous -as they distract the
attention of a following motorist,
and it is expected that Pennsylvan-
ia will soon make a similar ruling.
He also warned the membBers
that bogus insurance men are reap-
ing a harvest from the unwary in
the outlying districts of county.
Frank J. Blair reported that the
intersection of the New Danville
Pike and Long Lane is dangerous
and the sign committee was order-
ed to erect the necessary warning
signs.
One hundred and twenty-three
new members were elected.
A social session followed the
business meeting during which the
luncheon was served by Ladies’ Aid
Society of the Methodist church.
It was announced that the next
meeting of the club would be held
at Holtwood, where the members
will be given an opportunity to in-
spect the plant of the Pennsylvan-
ia Hater and Power Company.

LET GOVERNMENT CONFINE
ITSELF TO GOVERNING
The headlines tc a Washington
dispatch dated June 19, say, “Con-
gress worried by Muscle’ Shoals--
Skeleton in closet begins to rattle.”
The article then goes “on to say,
“Congress has authorized expendi-
tures at Muscle Shoals amounting to
about $110,000,000, since 1830.”
If $110,000,000 have been expen-
ded in 96 years trying to develop
government water power project,
how many more millions will have to
be expended, and how long will the
public have to wait to get service
under such a system
