Bouncing Checks Hit
Retail Store Trade
FORT WORTH, Tex. (UP Re
tail stores today are receiving more
checks that bounce because people
don't have money in the bank as
they did in war years, credit men
were told here by L. S. Crowder,
general manager-treasurer of the
National Retail Credit Assn.
It doesn't mean they are trying
to defraud, but that they are stall
ing for time to pay their bills,
Crowder said. "They think they
will have the money when they get
their next pay check, so they write
a check.'' he explained.

jQuecr Streets Enliven
Life in Hollywood
' LOS ANGELES (UP) A bodge-
podge of street names ;ind num
bers is what makes Los Angeles
drivers wild.
The only way to find a place in
this town is to follow the search
light beams to premieres and
grand market openings. Streets
wander about dninkeiily, changing
names every block, and numbers
jump from block to block.
Take, for example. Winona
Street, running between Franklin
and Fountain. At Fountain it be
comes Ardinore A little later it's
Norinandie Place. Then a brief
(ling at Ardinore again, followed
haphazardly by Irolo, Congress
Brighton and llalldale.
On Pico Boulevard street num
bers go to 1)100 west. The' next
block begins with 1(5(10. On ltimpau
Boulevard three blocks are jammed
into three neighboring houses
numbered 5120. 5202 and 530(i.
Even if you can find the house,
you sometimes can't read the num
ber. A city ordinance prohibits
painting the number on the curb.
