Young, representing a finance company of /Ciberty^ijle as the plaintiff, Huemann was represented bj!" Attorney Russell Allen of^VlcIIenry county and \ oung had as hisSUwyyer Attorney Scheeley of Lake county. The suit was brought over payment for a radio for a car which Huemann had obtained from a company, in Elgin wit*i the understanding that if he sold five others he would receive a radio free. When Huemann went t<J Elgin to make settlements he found that the company had disappeared, evidently going out of business. Allen's argument, being generally accepted as the real facts of the case, was that Young was really one-of the firm that sold the radio and that the whole thing was a skin game. After much 'argument on both sides a jury was called and after some deliberation decided in favor of the defendant. who was put under $1,200 bonds with Yoytig'under $600 bonds. Although Young1 threatened to appeal the case it is expected that a satis^ factory settlement will be madeout* side of court.

"Every workman from this company is supplied with an identification card. As an additional precaution to prevent the possible misuse of these cards, each bears a photograph of its rightful owner.
