Silva watched the case on behalf of one of the partners in Canton and Mr. Peter H. Sin represented the largest creditor.

Mr. Loseby said that the debt had been proved at the last bear- ing, when the suggestion was made that the debtor firm and one of the creditors were colluding. The question also arose as to whether one of the several partners could fle the petition on behalf of the Arm and Mr. Loseby said that as he held that could not be done. he advised the partner concerned to get one of the creditors to file the petition, which was accordingly done.

If indeed that was collusion, then there had been collusion.

Lau Man-kin. under cross- examination by Mr. Silva said that the firm owed him about $800 and he did not press for payment be- fore because he had hoped that the arm would be able to find a good footing again.
