2. In his Answer, defendant admitted the obligation and merely stated that he was asking to be given an extension of time to pay his obligation but that plaintiff instead filed the Complaint;
3. Said Answer has not tendered any issue and in fact it can be read therefrom that defendant admitted the obligation; consequently, a judgment on the pleadings may be rendered.
