There were only 73 bankruptcies in this State in 1938 compared with 114 during the previous year. The United States shows a 27 percent decrease from the fiscal year 1936-37. There were 1,799 farm failures reported in 1938 compared with 2479 in 1937. Farmer bankruptcies during that time decreased in each of the ma- jor geographie regions of the coun- try. There were small increases, however, in a few states, including as a whole and Nevada. There was no change in Rhode Island, Indiana and New Mexico. All other states showed declines, the largest occurring in Alabama, with a drop from 126 in 1937 to 38 in 1938. re ems ices LLOYD KLINE SPOKE TO USHERS’ LEAGUE Lloyd Kline, of Lancaster, mer president of the Ushers’ Lea- of St. Mark’s United Breth- ren church here, addressed the group at a meeting Thursday ev- ening at the home of Norman Sprecher, on Delta Street.
