Spanjer, who was discharged from a previous bankruptcy on June 24, 1959, bought a milk bar-dairy business ta 1960. His wife was to run it while he continued to work. However, his wife was unable to carry on after about six weeks and he had to take over, said his statement In addition, 350 houses which were to have been built in the area had not yet been erected and business was not sufficient to keep him out of debt. He was forced to sell on May 17 of this year. Mr Clancy formally closed the meeting.
