Rally Convicted on Usury Charge in Local Case
Vierre A. Ralty a jeweler and pawnbroker at 5 North Stone Avenue was found guilty of usury by Justice of the Peace Pease. The misdemeanor verdict came with sentence deferred until Thursday. Ralty defended himself and later engaged lawyer Hilzinger who filed a notice of appeal. Evidence showed he charged 7.50 interest monthly on a 70 loan between December 1917 and September 1918. numeral indorsements on checks indicated refunds reducing the actual proceeds within legal two percent monthly rate. Selleck testified he continued payments despite suspect terms, while other remarks tied the matter to broader financial schemes involving county officials.
