1Opinion of the CourtJennings, J.
The trustee in bankruptcy of Bochan Brothers, Inc., brought suit to recover the value of a quantity of paper which Bochan had returned to the defendant for credit, claiming that the transaction amounted to a voidable preference under § 60b of the Bankruptcy Act. 52 Stat. 870, 11 U. S. C. § 96 (b). Under the act, a preference is voidable if the creditor who receives property of the bankrupt has, at the time of the transfer, “reasonable cause to believe that the debtor is insolvent.” The trial court rendered judgment for the defendant and the plaintiff appealed.
