One 'Case That Was Easily
Settled Out of Court
"TTERE," said a man angrily
Tl to the railroad official, "I
got a cinder in my eye from one
of your engines, and it cost me $5
for a doctor to have it taken out
and the eye dressed, what are
yu going to do about it?"
"Nothing, my dear sir, nothing,"
the official replied suavely. "W
have no further use for the cinder
and you are quite welcome to it.
From a legal point or view, xne
cinder was not yours, and no
doubt you could be proceeded
against for removing our property.
But vou can rest assured, we will
take no steps in the matter."

lower one, a Liberator, was shot down in Germany. Both were badly
