Up and down the land ‘went organizers urging public spirited citizens in cities all over the country to establish units and raise funds for hospital equipment, As this meant in each instance the rais- ing of from $28§,000 to '$30,000 " for something whose usefulness- was in the minds of the general public very problematical, the task was no light one. 5 maintained a reticent and largely de- flant attitude, Gecse Missing, Beats Wife. \ ".A'?lmnnnl that he had frequently ited his wife and did so yester- day morning because two geess were missing from the poultry yard with< out a satisfactory explanation being. siven, Martin Karmininsky of an un- ngmed street running off Farmington avenue was fined $10 and costs ana sentenced to 15 days in jail. He was caught this morning shortly aft. er 5:30 by Policeman John L. Carl- son, following a chase across lots up- on the arrival of the patrol, sent to the ascene by Sergeant George -J. Kelly in response to a telephone call received headquartérs alleging trouble. The call wis received from 15 Farmington avenue. Mrs. Karm- ininsky, frail looking, showing the strain of harrowing experiences and much’ care-worn, testified that her husband brutally assaulted her yes- terday morning about the side, hands -and chest, using hands and feet in doing 0. She also testified that he does as a regular thing. Chuck- ling to himself and seemingly conwid- ering the allegations as a huge joke until sentence was pronounced, the accused manifested much penitence afterwards. No probationary super- vision was recommended in his case. Guida Perplexes Authorities. One of the most perplexing prob- lems presented for disposition before the local court for many & month, Bonislaw Guida, aged 18 vears, of 191 Broad street was presented upon continued arralgnment, one of an al- most daily type this week. Originally committed to the state reform school at Meriden on an aggrevated theft charge it was discovered that he ex- ceeded the age limit for admission to that institution. tion relative to what can be done rel- ative to his disposition the case has been continued. Prosecuting ‘Attor- ney Kiett announced that he had tried, to get in touch with Btate’s At- torney Hugh M. Alcorn in superjor court vesterday but had been unable to do so because of the press of work under consideration by the state of- ficial, in view of unexpected develap- ments connected with -several cases on trial. He informed Judge Kirk- ham that there: will ds a consulta- tion with State’s Attorney Alcorn to- day relative to the issuance of a bench warrant so the accused may be legally arraigned and his case dis- posed of. Falling down a flight of stairs st the plant of the Union Mfg. Co. last night, Stanislaw Miklowski of 539 Main street suffered a seriously sprained left :houldor and oulor in- Surjes, . ‘“To the general indictment | “Bitter oppositions were met with. ‘Why' contribute such a big sum to be tied up In mme'.hlu that will rot in storage?’ was 'the burden of the ‘protest. “But the workers persisted. As a result, when this country declared war the Red Cross was prepared and has already organized forty-four base ‘hospital units, thirty-nine for the army and five for the navy, which will be ready to be turned over to the gov- ernment with their equipment as fast as they are asked for. Already seven of these have been sent abroad for the use of the allies and the balance are ready to go at a day’s notice. ‘There is much popular misconcep- tion regarding the base hospital. Many think of it as a huge tent or series of tents containing little hedside cots and emergency equipment. Such & notion more nearly describes the fleld hospital, which is an entire- 1y different affair, located two or three miles back of the firing line and LUTHER LEAGUE LAWN PARTY.
