Court of Appeals of the State of New York.

Decided June 1, 1951


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edwin M. Otterbourg, Frederic P. Houston and Richard A. Holman for appellant.

Robert Moers for Tocosa Corporation, amicus curiæ, in support of appellant's position.

Julius B. Sheftel for respondent.

LOUGHRAN, Ch. J., LEWIS, CONWAY, DESMOND, DYE, FULD and FROESSEL, JJ., concur.


Per Curiam.

Laws, § 8552). The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs, and the question certified answered in the affirmative.
