Although both stocks had already suffered during the break, last week's decline had its own reason-"friendly" receivers were appointed as the result of a petition by Bethlehem Steel Corp., said to be a $400,000 creditor. In this receivership there was not evident the aftermath of the market's break, as had been true in the Fox trusteeship (TIME, Dec. 16), nor of poor trade conditions as in the American Piano receivership (see p. 30).
