Quinn of New Haven in his report | to the annual convention of thé Con- necticut Liquor Dealers’ associaton, which opened a two days’ session here today. “The constant attacks by those op- rosed to our business,” said Mr. Quinn, “the unjust treatment by those who seem to fear it, ad the persecutions cf the fanatic will, in my opinion, cease, if we, as an organization, con- tinue to stand for those things per- taining to the liquor business that a decided majority of the people of our great liftle state seem to want. We must, by our own conduct, merit the | confidence that Connecticut has placed irc us and help along every good cause that will tend to strengthen that con- fidence. “There are many fields upon which your activities can be made effective liesides those of the liquor business, financial, manufacturing, commercial, agricultural and, in fact, nearly every line of endeavor where goods are bought and sald, receive benefits from the millions of dollars invested in the liquor business in this state. We have a right then to expect fair treatment from a state and its people that re- ceives so much from us, and there is ro doubt in my mind that when once awakened ta the dangers of prohibi- Uon_the peaple of Connecticut will continue repudiating it. “The members of this assoclation can do a great deal towards this| awakening movement by pointing out to those with whom you do business the danger of financial and other in- terests that prohibition would surely bring. Let every member do his full duty by considering himself a work- ing part of this association and as- sisting in the work which we trust will bring benefits to all. Da not wait for the so-called wave -of prohibition to subside, face it like the men I know you to be, and at every opportunity drag from this monster its cloak of deception that an innocent people may be warned of its dangers.” Sale of Liquor in “Dry” States.

The victim is Helen Badgar, another seven month old baby, the parents living at 73 Orange street. She is paralyzed in all four limbs. Her recovery is regarded as practically hopeless. The child had been ill for three or four days, but it was not until late yes- terday that a physician was called to the case and the nature of the disease established. ~ There are no other children in the family.

Although Buddy Faulkes and Young McAuliffe will be the center of attraction there is more than the usual interest being shown in the semi-final tilt which bring together Jimmy Fasane and Harry Willlams. Tasane is looked upon as a tough bird, and is picked to defeat Wil- liams. The former will be working under a big handicap In weight, but to make the sacrifice so that he can demand a bout with Chick Brown, Local promoters have been prone overlook Fasane because he has never been a box office attraction. As a fighter, however, it is admitted that he is the most likely candidate to shear Chick Brown of his title. Fasane is working out daily in preparation for the bout. He claims he will defeat Willlams and then challenge Brown to a 20-round bout lovers are to | declared ‘silly” teday by Dr. Ira Lan- states than in wet, frequently ad- vanced by the saloon interests, was drith, prohibition candidate for vice president at the last meeting of the “dry’” special train campaigners in New Mexico, “Do you think for a minute that if the ertion were true the liquer in- terests would be fighting prohibition he asked. “Wauldn't it be good busi- ness for them to make every endeavor to increase in ‘dry’ territory if their seles increased proportionately?
