Adkms Prmtm Co. 66 Church: Street [HE’S THE NEW BIISS IS CAPTAIN JACK Several Changes Take Place in the. Waterbury Detective Burean Waterbury, Dec. 7.—Lieutenant John A. Kennaugh, recognized as ono of the best detectives in this section of New England, has been named as head of the local detectlve bureau, succeeding Captain Thomas Dadds, for thirty-nine years the chief of the bu- reau. The elevation of Lieutenant Kennaugh came as a big surprise, but met with universal favor, albeit the retirement of Captain Dodds by the safety board did not meet with popu- lar approval. Jack Kennaugh will make good at the head of the depart- ment, without a doubt, as he is un- doubtedly cne of the ablest men who ever took the oath of office in this city. He has to his record many arrests of desperate characters—men Who would as soon fill your hide full of lead as to sit down to dinner. Afraid of no man, always courteous, shrewd, and with an insight into human na- ture that would be hard to equal, the new captain will give a good account of himself. To be frank, Captain Kennaugh is not a motion picture sleuth. He doesn't carry any goat- hair false whiskers in his pockets and his shoes do not squeak. And he isn't forever looking for publicity. He does his work conscientiously and well, and his advancement’is a well- deserved tribute to his abilities. Sergeant Bill Keegan will succeed the lieutenant.

"Phone 728. 193 MAIN STREET has been a member of the depart- ment for vears and he, too, has a good record—so good, in fact, that he was the only man who was mentioned to flll Kennaugh's shoes. Patrolman John Donahue, always energetic and willing, is now a sergeant, taking Keegan's place. Detective-Sergeant Donahue has been assisting the detec- tive bureau for several years on vari- ous cases, particularly counterfeiting, and has always ‘come across” with the goods. Those who have studied the police department admit that the new detective is the best selection the safety commissioners could have made to fill the gap in the detective bureau. Captain Dodds, retired, is an inter- ested student of fingerprints and has been for years in direct communica- tion with the National Bureau of Identification. Patrolman Martin Moore was re- tired at the same time as Captain Dodds, and this retirement, too, came as a surprise. FOOD SITUATION OVER IN NORWAY Those in Authority Say People Have Been Too Optimistic Christiania, 19.—(Corres- pondence of The Associated Press)— The food situatian in Norway has grown from bad to worse, especially since the American embargo was im- posed. So long as the commercial re- lations could be maintained between Norway and the United States, the im- poTt of foad was about big enough to meet the consumers’ demand. Except for the steadily increasing prices of all articles of food, evervthing could be bought as before, the only form of rationing being sugar, which could anly be bought from government stores two pounds at a time. As a matter of fact, the government and especially the food minister had been too optimistic. When cable- grams from Washington stated that the American government was going to place an embargo on different ar- ticles, the answer from the Norwegian government to the press, asking how this would affect Norway, was that it only meant that Norway should guar- antee that nothing would be re- exported to Germany, and then Nor- way would get all it needed. At last, during the past two months 1t has dawned on the gavernment that Uncle Sam means business and that Nov. . Norway cannot expect special favors as a favorite friend. After the importation of grain and flour stopped, the government estab- lished a grain monopoly, taking charge of all grain imported and pro- duced here. The farmers are not al- lowed to sell but the government and at a fixed price. The nation will be put on flour | or bread rations—every person, adult or child, being allowed 25 pounds of bread monthly, or 16 pounds of unsift- ed flour. The people, however, instructed to mix potatoes in the bread dough. With this vear's crop and the imported grain Norway has enough flour till February or March. Tt is hoped here that the United States will grant export li- there by Norwegian importers and and Norwegian government which now is ready for shipment. Norway is dependent on imported sugar, as no sugar is produced here. The consumption of sugar is still un- limited. Candy factaries turn out as much candy as before and no sugar card n use here, as in Sweden. Last summer an ordinance passed Dutting motor vehicles motor craft on rations of ga was and used more freely than ever. The American embargo again forced the authorities to action and the sale of gasoline for use in private ears was i Have you lost a sum of money?
