Hartford, July 28.—-No emergency exists in the present situation of rent profiteering and if a need exists to correct by law excessive rents such laws can be enacted at the next ses- n of the General Assembly. Is the of Geovernor Helcomb's reply to the municipal rent commission which on Monday presented to him a peti- tion signed by about 5,000 persons asking him to call a speclal session of the legislature to curb rent profi- teering. The governor's reply sent to John J. Coleman, chairman of the commission is in part as follows: “T have examined the petitions left with me on Monday by vourself and vour associate from ew Britain, which requested me to call a special mession of the General Assembly to consider the alleged rent profiteering by certain landlords in this state. I do not doubt that excessive rents are charged by some landlords. Profiteer- ing existed at and before the last Geperal Amsembly was in session. There no special emergency per- taining to rent charg “There has been a large increase in the price charged for all food products. Some increase in the price of rent must be expected.

The local army® recruiting office looks toward high standing among enlistment offices in this district for the month of July. New Britain a city of over 60,000 compares favor- ably in its enlistment records with Worcester a city of 180,000. A total of 28 men have been seht from this city by Sergeant James Gormley with- in the past 18 days. Of that number 21 were aoccepted for service and seven returned to try in asghort while again. The record would n a man a day if figured for the 28 days in July, a very good record, but these 28 men have all been recruited and sent to service since July 10 and that will add greatly to this city’s record dur- ing the compilation of standings. Joseph Mossicski of 195 Burton street, Hartford has been accepted by the local office for enlistment for three vears in the cavalry. He was sent to Fort Ethan Allen, Vermont this morning. Cris Arnos of 466 Main street was reading the bulletin at the Union station concerning army education work. He was approached, explain- ed the details of the army life, and left within two hours for Camp Upton, N. Y. where he will be in the school connected with the army educational centers, now established throughout the country. RECORDS HIS WILL ON TALKING MACHINE Des Moines, Iowa, Man Makes Will Which He Says Cannot Be Tampered With. Des Moines, Ia., July he says he believes to be a ‘fraud proof” will has been made and filed in the office of the clerk of Polk county, Iowa, by Theodore Mantz. a Des Moines lawyer. Mr. Mantz dic- tated his will into a talking machine and had it recorded in wax. At the end of the dictation, C, H. Miller, a lawyer, and H. W. Brandt, a court reporter, testified into the ma- chine they were witnesses to the “making” of the will, and spelled their names in full as the witnesses. The record then was put on a machine and repz:nduved the voices. Being pronounted correct by Mr. Mantz, he took it to the clerk’s office, had the box containing it sealed in wax and filed. Mr. Mantz has instructed Mrs. Mantz to take the case to the highest court of the country if the validity of the will should be questioned. he will on a record is believed by its maker to be the first of its kind in the country. Lawyers say a pos- sible objection to wills on talking ma- chine records is an Iowa statute which says conveyances of property worth more than $200 must be in writing. Mantz says he will go before the next session of the Iowa legislature and en- deavor to get a bill through which will legalize spoken wills when record- ed as his is. Mantz says he believes the future will see greater uses of talking ma- chines and records, and in his opin- ion it would be much more difficult to “tamper with a spoken will than a written one.
