LONG 'PHONE TALKS. The Telephone Compaany has a rule, more or impossible of enforce- ment, that telephone conversations should not last more than five min- utes. The rule is flexible, of course, and only the demands or courtesy and sometimes urgency can compel its en- forcement. The company issues a letter tme to time, or when complaints are made that cer- tain persons on party lines are monop- olizing those lines to the inconven- ience of others on the same line, call- ing attention to this rule. Even If every subscriber were for- less circular from tunate enough to have a single wire it would be wise for the telephone user to limit his or her conversations to things necessary to be said with all due regard to politeness. This, for the reason that someone else may be wait- ing to call the person who is prolong- ing a talk beyond reasonable limits. And this second call may be far more important than the first. But unfortunately tn New Britain several subscribers are forced to use | the same line. This complicates mat- ters. Out of consideration the other users of such party line anyone thereon should be particularly care- ful not to extend conversations be- yond five minutes.

I most emphatically deny that the Private Walter J. Smith Post, V. F. W. had anything whatsoever to do with the publication or the malling of the anonymous communication mailed to the ex-servicemen on Saturday, Oct. 30, referred to in their attack. It was at the suggestion of Lt. Caldwell Colt Robinson Post, V. F. W, of Hartford that the local post of the V. F. W. requested the local candi- dates for statements as to their atti- tudes towards the proposed bonus ! which bill was offered the last session of the General Assembly by this or- ganization. Upon receiving replies from all of the candidates it was de- cided that the ex-servicemen in gen- eral should be acquainted with the at- titude of the various candidates and for this purpose a mass meeting was called on Friday, Oct, 29 and was at tended by over 200 ex-servicemen representing every organization in the city. The letters were then read and voted upon from the floor and all were endorsed with the exception of Mr. Hall whose opposition at the time was vague and indefinite. He dia not commit himself definitely in his letter and, furthermore, he told the S. | writer that he would not hesitate to g0 on record as being opposed to the measure. (From developments this day 1 am inclined to think that his statement was a bluff). In view of the above the meeting went on record as being opyposed to the election of Mr. Hall and a com- mittee of eight was appointed to carry out the reccomendation of the meet- ing. Only two members of this com- mittee were representatives of the V. F. W, This committee was not re- sponsible for the anonymous com- munications. Had Mr. Hall come out and said the last state convention of the Amer- definitely that “he’ll vote for it again as per the advertisement in tonight's Herald he would have been en- dorsed along with the other can- didates. The ex-servicemen had been “expecting” too long for the Gener- al assembly to act to tolerate Mr. Hall's “wobbly” expression that he “expected to vote,” as a pledge. All the ex-servicemen do not stoop to sell their friends for a job. Are the signers of the charge against the V. F. W, sincere some of them are maybe they did not have the facts, as for others they are notorious anti-bonus men.—One Hell- berg, for instance, was a delegate to ican Legion and when this question was on the floor he was as dumb as tne proverbial oyster. 1 am indeed pleased, however, that however unpleasant the controversy has been Mr. Hall's bluff has been called, and, from developments yes- terday, we have that gentleman lined | up with the regulars and have the | word of the Republican Town com- mittee that he'll vote for the bonus— a job well done. Yours respectively The Private Walter J. Smith, Post No. 511 V. F, W. JAMES McKENNA Command~r Note—We do not wish to be- come involved in the controversy but in all justice to Mr. Hall—he stat- . ed to a reporter for this paper and | to the public, through us, that he would favor a bonus. This was before the mas mecting in question. We have no guarantee, of course, that he will keep his word but have sufficient | faith in him to take his statement to us at its face value. | | i | 1 Ed. TO HAVE DANCE.
