The pro- gram as tentatively planned will in- clude the entire day and evening. In the morning there will be a seminar ses- sion on the general subject of Tax Problems in the Creation and Winding Up of a Closely-Held Business. The guest speaker will be the well-known tax speaker Leonard Sarner, Esquire, of Philadelphia, who addressed a Bar As- sociation Institute in 1953. Mr. Sarner. a member of the firm of Welkin, Sar- ner and Cooper, is the author of 'Or- uanizational Problems of Small Busi- nesses,'' a publication of the Committee on Continuing Legal Education of the American Law Institute collaborating with the American Bar Association. He is a frequent lecturer at law institutes and conferences and it is expected that his discussion will prove stimulating and informative. In addition to the principal spraker, there will be a dis- cussion panel of outstanding local tax practitioners. It is anticipated that the emphasis will be mor on the wind-up aspects of a closely-held business than on Lhe organizational problems. Luncheon will constitute part of the program. and in the afternoon a semi- nor is scheduled on the subject of Pre- Trial and Discovery Procedure. The guest speakers on this subject will be Donald J. Farage, Esquire. of Philadel- phia. and Claude B. Cross, Esquire, of Providence. Mr. Farage is a member of the firm of Richter, Lord & Farage ,and has also lectured extensively in this field. This subject is of great in- terest, not only in Rhode Island but nationwide, because of the increasing volume of litigation and consequent congestion of court calendars. It is felt that effective pre-trial and discovery procedures substantially hell in re- ducing such congestion. In the evening the annual dinner of the Association will be held, preceded by the usual business meeting and also by a social hour.
