Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

BECM/SE he had kept no accounts, the vendor of a one-man haulage business was compelled to visit all his 1956 customers, in company with the purchaser, to obtain proof of earnings.

Mr. J. H. A. Randolph, Yorkshire Deputy Licensing Authority, was told this at Leeds, last week, when he granted an application by Mr. C. Oddy, York, to take over an A licence held by Mr. A. Langan, for a 3i-ton tipper.

Mr. P. Kenny, for the applicant, said Mr. Langan and his brother had been in haulage since 1933. After the dissolution of their partnership he was left with one vehicle which became decrepit and he obtained permission to hire. The vehicle now in use was, in fact, the applicant's, and Mr. Oddy had agreed to pay £650 for the goodwill. He was satisfied there was plenty of work available.

Mr. Randolph said that although the business was not large he 'thought it • was adequate considering the type of work.
