President A. F. Rockwell of the Standard Steel and Bearings com- pany, stated definitely that the plant would not open up for real opera- tions before the end of this month. Plans are for gradually getting the factory on a working schedule and not to open it at a definite date set. There have been however, a few toolmakers and other men employad and some of the machines are work- ing on small orders. The announce- ment that the factory would open about the first of June, was based on a probability. Changes, however, have compelled the officials to keep the plant closed from active opera- tions until the first part of July. This does not mean that a large force of men will be employed nor does it mean that the factory will throw open its doors and comtinue work as was the custom there. The fact that the automobile induatry has reached its lowest ebb, will probably mean- forthcoming orders which the plan may work on A small force of men will commence operations and each week others will be added to that number until a fair sized payroll will be in force. No help is wanted at the plant at this immediate time, state the of- ficials, but app#.cations have been pouring in since the last announce- ment was made. The doors of the employment bureau werg thronged daily with persons looking for work and several hundred have called from time to time. \ Hayes Case Heard. Justipe Meritt O. Ryder and Grand Juror Stanley S. Gwillim held a hear- ing in the town court last night on the case of Paul Hayes and Mrs. Hannah Hayes. The case concerned the support of the two small chil- dren. Mrs. Hayes had been keeping the children at Mrs. Brimley's farm at Shuttle Meadow. She decided, however, to keep them nearer her home here and had them moved to the home of Mrs. Charles Klatt of East street. Paul Hayes, however, refused to allow the children to live with Mrs. Klatt and would not pay their board, which amounts to $10 a week. The case was threshed out and the coirt gave Paul Hayes two weeks to finl a suitable place for the chiliren which would be agree- able to both sides. The case will come up again on June 24. Fined for Fishing. Two New Britain lads were, baled into the local court last night by Game Wardens Smyrk of New Brit- ain and Alstead of Granby. They were charged with fishing with more than one line and having undersized fish. The game wardens canght them at Loon Lake. Justice Meritt O. Ryder and Stanley S. Gwillim heard their case. The lads were fined $1 and costs which amounted to $19. Bundle Day Responses. The Boy Scouts started on their round of collecting old clothes for the poor of the town and the Near East Relief at 9 o'clock this morn- ing. Several large bundles were re- ceived and it looked as if the drive would be a success. Any persons who were missed and the bundles not called for, are asked to (eave them at the Neri block where a room has been secured for drive headquar- ters. Senator Trumbull's Party Senator John H.
