BERTA WALZ, Appellant, v. PAUL HELFER, INC., Respondent.

Per Curiam.

The record presents issues of fact concerning negligence and freedom from contributory negligence. The washing of the floor of a store during business hours presents a different situation from the cleaning of the stairs of an apartment house ( Samuels v. Terry Holding Co., 253 N.Y. 593) or the floor of a railroad station ( Curtiss v. Lehigh Valley R.R. Co., 233 N.Y. 554).

The judgments should be reversed and a new trial granted, with costs to the appellant to abide the event. (See 286 N.Y. 700.)

LOUGHRAN, FINCH, RIPPEY, LEWIS, CONWAY and DESMOND, JJ., concur; LEHMAN, Ch. J., dissents.
