In ordér ta complete the detailing and laying out of the work to be done, four engineers have been put to work and it is expected that Wednesday nlgl\L will see the survey completed. Contractors will begin the Berlin end of the work about April 1. Both the East Berlin and ‘“pike” | roads are expected to be opcned to traffic by November 1. Detour for the Hartford highway will be by way of New Britain, autos going north leav- ing the thoroughfa at Woodruff's corner. Machines from Hartford can lecave by any of the highways leading to New Britain. Machines from Mid- dletown en route to Berlin will have to detour by way of Savage hill com- ing out on the main highway at Col. C. M. Jarvis’ farm. It was reported yesterday that the company hauling the stone for the new. highwa: asking $1.50 per ton fer haulage instead of $1, the price which has been in force since last fall. Not many trucks were ip use yesterday, the reason given being that a decision on the price increase was pending. From the number on the road today it is supposed that the in- crease has been granted. At this rate it will be possible to realize from $30 to $50 on a truck.

T0 DISCUSS MATTER OF BETTER SERVIGE | Double Tracking Method Proposed by Businessmen’s Association | MEET TOMORROW NIGHT Trolley Superintendent Beardsley Cal- led to Mecting to Talk Over Pro-| position—Will Discuss Americanizas | tion at Church. The Plainville Business and Im- | provement associafion will hold a special meeting tomorrow evening at the club rooms at 8 o'clock. Super- intendent Beardsley of the Connecti- cut company has been asked to at- tend the meeting and cenfer with the members of the board of directors in the matter of laying double tracks: from Trumbull's factory to Sharp's station near Westwood park. The matter has been the subject of considerable agitation for the past few years. It was planned to take ! it up with the trolley company three | years ago but the outbreak of the! war spoiled the plans and the short- | age of labor and the high cost of | materials made it impossible to under- take the work during the war. During the past two months Business Men's association has had | considerable correspondence with the | officials of the Connecticut company in this matter and the meeting to- niorrow evening will show the results of the latest agitation. The members | are expected to attend in force as| they have all been interested in the question for some time. The prime movers in the attempt to have the company make this im- | provement are the local maufacturers. | They complain that the gperatives from New Sritain and points on the line are late nearly every day and that the source of the trouble is the | delays encountered by riding on the trole; The lack of a double track between Sharp’s and Trumbull’s sta- toms has been considered the sore spot for some time and the manu- facturers demand that the trouble be remedied. The manufacturers are receiving the heartiest support of all local patrons of the company’s lines. Superintendent Beardsley, when asked this morning about the pro- posed double track, said, “I have bee nasked to attend the meeting but T do not believe the company has money enough to carry out the proposed improvement of the Plainville-New Britain line.” The double-tracking of the line would, no doubt, be a difficult matter and would put the company to con- siderable expense. There are ‘several stumbling blocks in the way of early completion of such an improvement, principally the fact that several places along the line would have to be filled in with sand and gravel, and another being the trestle at Johnson’s station, where, it is said, it is almost too nar- row to allow -the installation of an- other track. - The laying of the tracks is not im- sible, however. and the local pa- feel that after several years of waiting some recompense is due to them for the inconveniences caused by delays at the two stations men- tioned. It has been known to afford considerable amusement to strangers in this locality when waiting at Sharp’s station for cars to arrive from Plainville ‘to hear regular patrons registering the usual kicks about the service. This condition has existed for a lonz time—too long. in the opin- ion of commuters—and the Business Men's association will recéive the heartiest hacking at the meeting to- morrow night. To Discuss Am “The Relation School Teacher tion Movement' the canization. of the Grammar to the ‘Americaniza- will be the subject of discussion Sunday morning at the weekly meeting of the Congregational Brotherhood. The leaders of the dis- cussion will be Orrin L. Judd, of Southington, principal of the Plain- ville Grammar school, and Schuyler P. Williams, a former principal of the local schools. The subject will be out- lined by the leaders and the discus- sion will include the manner in which the school teacher may aid in Amer- icanizing the children of foreign-born parents and what plans are in opera- tion or are suggested for the advance- ment of the worthy movement. Rev, E. L. Wismer to Speak. The sixth and last of the Sunday evening community services in which members of the Comzregational and Episcopal churches have been parti- cipating during the season of Lent will be held Sunday evening in the Congregational church. Rev. E..L. Wismer, of Bristol, will be the speaker. Rev. Mr. Wismer placed himself in good standing as a speaker during the Liberty Loan campaigns when he spoke at mass meetings in this town. He is an eloquent speaker and it expected a large congrezation will greet him wpon his appearance Sun- day evening. Wins Two Cups. Nathan check Boy Stevenson, championship of the Scout troop, was victor inter-troop games in the New Britain X Bl last evening and was wwarded two cups as trophies.

ENTHUSIASTS are 'MEET IN NEW HAVEN (Continued from FKirst Page) To Approve Roll. The state central committee was to meet late in the afternoon to approve roll of the convention which Major John Buckley, the secre- tary, has prepared. This temporary roll later will go to the credentials committee and should there be a con- from Stratford as has been indicated, that committee will give a hearing tonight to the par- ties in interest. Many selections of members of convention committees have already been made and about half the new state central committee has been chosen by districts. The committee will probably be completed tonight and the 35 nominations con- firmed by the convention tomorrow. It has been customary for the new committee to meet after the conven- tion adjourns. Delegates from Wind- ham county brought word that there was a possibility of Mayor Charles A. Gates of Willimantic being chosen chairman of the new committee in suc- Roraback. Noth- ing appeared to be known, however, of Mr. Roraback’s intention not to to ,\Ir.‘; 3-d2x | explanation given by some delegates was that Mr. Roraback may be chosen ! national committeeman in succession to John T. King of Bridgeport, and may not care to hold both places. The discussion among delegates to- day was chiefly as to make-up of the delegation of fourteen to the Chicago convention and the wording of the resolutions. Tt has been customary to make this a short-document touching on few matters and without the spe- cific declarations contained in the platform of the fall convention which lay stress upon state affairs. It is an- ticipated that the session of the reso- lutions cammittee tonight will be of interest because of the equal suffrage issue. A forecast of the convention’s act is that the delegation will be unpledged and the resolutions will be brief. WANT §8.00 A DAY Granite Cutters Want Wage Adjust- meat So All Will Earn This Amount in Eight Hours. Boston, March 23.—Demands for a readjustment of wages intended to bring to virtually all the granite cut- ters of the country on April 2 a uni- form wage of $1 an nour for an eight hour day have been presented by the Granite Cutters’ International association. The employers, as repre- sented by the International Monu- mental Granite Producers’ associa- tion, will consider the demands through a committee of each organ- ization at meetings here Tuesday. James Duncan of Quincy, president of the Granite Cutters’ association said that the demands as now made affect directly 6,000 workers, em- prloyed principally in New England. the south and middle west. Eight thousand other cutters " will receive the rate agreed upon at the confer- ence here. Some have already been promised the $8 day rate effective April 1, according to Mr. Duncan. The present agreement which con- trols the cutters’ wage is based on a sliding scale under which they would receive $6.40 a day on April 1 next and $6.80 on 'April 1, 1921, Other workers in the industry are not affected by the demands. GERMANY LACKS POWER. Officials Admit That They Are Unable to Cope With Situation There. Berlin, March 22.—Admission was made today that the central German zovernment lacks power to Trestore normal conditions in Westphalia where fighting continues and where only a small proportion of the miners have returned to work. It is denied however, that bolshevism has entered into the situation which has arisen there as a result of workers setting up their own government and it is de- clared the miners favor a constitu- tional form of government and want to establish an independent state. Herr Giesberts, minister of posts and telegraphs, has gone into the Ruhr district to try to re-establish governmental authority.
