In the list of questions &n answers given below, which is just one of the many amusing ways in which these applications are filed cut, the man’s name has been left out purposely and that of John Doe suib- stituted. The application follows: Name—John Doe. Ago—58, 16 May past 1921. Sex—American-German — Thank Sod. Resndence——street No.— Single or Married—I ,am widow 8 vears. ‘Where born—Pleasant Valley, D. C. N. Y. ’ How long in New ‘Britain—20 years. Children—if sd, how many—Onse &irl not working. Any dependents—John Doe. Are you a voter—I am. _ Were you a service man—No work everything. Are you receiving government ajd— Ne. Smte aid—No. Is there anybody in fa.mlly working —No. What are earnings per Whatever I can get. How long have you work—4 month little. What were your earnings per week —Difference prices. Where were you employed—J. Doe, carpenter work. ‘Why are you out of work—Long tme—cannot get any. ‘What was your factory number— No. What was your regular trade— Mason, brick, stone, plastering. Are you able bodied or defective— Able bodied. Are you tenant or boarder—Neither one—board myself. Do you own any property—No. . Have you money in banks—No. This is a true statement, Stgned, John Doe. About 115 applications are being re- ce.ved each week at the labor bureau office in the rear of city hall. About 100 jobs are given out in & week, r.ahy of the men alternating every other week so as to accommodate a larger crowd and help keep men from starving. There are about 1,700 ap- plications on file for work, only 106 cf which can be accommodated at any one time. Work is given only to the destitute. . If there is any suspickon ed in the case of an application vestigation is made before the man is given work. Many men apply fcr work which cannot be given them because they are not fitted for the kind of work the city has to give out. Clerks from stores, office helpers and others who have been employed all their lives at clerical work apply for iobsand are told there is nothing but pick and shovel work. It is pathetic to see the men who apparently never did any laboring work in their lives, bravely offer to go out with a pick and shovel. Men, who judging from appearances would not last half a day.

The New Britain Motary club mem- bers have been invited to a big sheep- bake to be held by the Hartford Ro- tary members in that city next Mon- day.

Casper Said to Have Been Shot by Officer Philadelphia, Aug. 11.—Information that there had been a slaying on board the U. 8. Shipping Board steamer Cas- per, now en route from Bordeaux, France to this port, was received at the local district attorney’s office yes- terday.

Bolton Ken- nedy, broker, at his summer cottage in Beverly Glen, near here, is schedui- ed to be begun by a county grand jury here this afternoon. x The evidence in the case, involving Madelynne Obenchain, Kennedy's companion the night of the slaying, and Arthur C. Burch, her former col- lege mate and acquaintance of Ken- nedy, both held in jail, the latter un- der suspicion of murder, may not all be presented, it was indicated by of- ficials. Thomas Lee Woolwine, dlstrlct at- torney indicated that among the wit- nesses to be called will.be Dick Par- sons, garage man, who identified Burch as having rented an automobile from him the night d¥ the killing. The tires of the car correspond, officials said, to the tracks made by a machige parked on that night, near the scane of the shooting.’ Search for the shotgun used in the slaying, conducted for severa days had up to this morning, been unavailing. A feature of late yesterday’s devel- opments was the purported visit to the district attorney’s office of a foung hardware clerk of his city, who was understood to have sbld shotgun shells to a stranger in his store about ten days ago. It was understood an at- tempt was made to identify Burch as the man to whom the clerk sold shells’ corresponding to the two discharged ones found in the bushes near the scene of the killing. Assistant District Attorney Keyes, .declined to say what information he ‘had contribued to the investigation. The large black leather, bag sent from San Francisco yesterday to Mrs. Obenchain in care of the hotel at which she was staying before her de- tention by ther authorities, yielded nothing of value to the investigation, it was said. A strict censorship of ‘information coming from the district attorney’s office was declared by Mr. Woolwine today. “We have some good leads” he said “but they cannot be discussed now.” He promised action within 24 hours. BIG OIL SHIPMENTS. SENT FROM MEXICO During Month of June Seventecn Mil- lion Barrels Were Shipped At Tampico. ‘Washington, Aug. 11.—Petroleur shipments from the Tampico, Mex., oil flelds in June aggregating 17,000,000 barrels reached the greatest volume of shipments for any months this yeaf, excepting the record month of Janu- ary, according toge report to the com- merce department today from Vice- Consul Hickerson.

In the divis.on of shipments he reported the Un’tad itates received 12,- 557,000 barrels Au.cing June, approxim- three million more. than in May and 75 per cent of the totzl net ship- ments. KU-KLUX KLANSMAN DEFENDS HIS ORDER Atlanta Clergyman Explains it is to Protect Weak and Keep White Race Supreme Tulsa, Okla., Aug. 11.—Many crimes have been committed by the coward- 1y, in the name of the Ku Klux Klan, but the order, of which he is a mem- ber is composed of law abiding citi- zens, Dr. Caleb A. Ridley, Atlanta, Ga., minister, declared in an address on the aims and organization of the “invisible empire” here last night gt Convention Hall. The purpose of the Ku Klux, the speaker said, is three fold, to protect the weak, innocent and defenseless from the outrages of the violent, the lawless and the brutal; to protect and defend the constitution of the United States; and to aid in the execution of all constitutional law. The proviso of its membership, ba,r- ring negroes, Jews and Catholics, has led many people to believe, according to Dr. Ridley, that the Klan is nega- tive not positive in its claims. Dr. Ridley said he was not a paid lecturer, but was spending his vaca- tion “between Sundays” speaking for it, in order to combat “insidiots propaganda,” which he said has been circulated against it. “A white ‘man is a white man, whether he lives in New Jersey, In- diana, Oklahoma or Georgia” the speaker said, and a white man’s job is to see that civilization comes uder the dominion of no inferior race so long as he ives.” N GIRLS!
