In announcing his plan this morning, the mayor stated that it 15 not his intentfon to recom- mend that the pay of men now serving in the department be re- duced: ncither does he intend to urge that favorable action be taken, but he feels that the im- portance of the present financial problem warrants consideration with a view to econcmizing.— New Rritain Herald, Aug. 18.

His views need not necessarily coincide with those of the man who appointed him and if he has the courage of his convictions he will follow his own judgment even though such action brings him into <onflict with his superior. Mr. Macomber, deposed chairman of the Board of Fire Commissioners, :nust have followed such a coure,con- sciously or unconsciously, when he tecided to make articulate the vote of the people at the city mseting to ostall a' two-platoon system in the t¢ department. As the chairman of «he board, the responsibility of car- rving out the will of the voters fell on him and he proceeded fearlessly aith full knowledge that he was in- iiting removal from office. He is to he commended for his manly refusalto hecome subservient to a political master. Mr. Donahue, who remained loyal to Mr. Macomber, and who re- signed rather than serve in such a listasteful berth, is also ®to be com- mended. They stand before the peo- ple fally vindicated for doing what they did. On the other hand, what a sorry sight the Mayor presents! His first statement following the dismissal of Mr. Macomber was that the two-pla- toon system should not become effec- tive because of the “hard times. Ilardly had his words become cold than he reversed his position and stat- ed that a modified two-platoon sys- tem would be installed, this, in spite of the fact that he had forced Mr. Macomber out for attempting to do the, very same thing. Such inconsistency has frequently arked the administration of Mr. Cur- tiz and no one is really surprised. But it will be a pleasant relief when his term is at an end, and it is to be de- voutly hoped that he has grace encugh not to go through the motions of seeking a renomination. It wouldn't be at all nice for the republican party to play another practical joke lik: ihat on New Britain. In view of later developments, Mayor Curtis must feel that he erred in summarily dismissing Chairman Macomber. The fact that the under- writers had approved the program of Mr. Macomber and the old board forces the conclusion that it must have been a good program. It is said that August Bergstrom, a tormer building inspector, is in a re- ceptive mood for Mr. Donahue’s place. Mr. Bergstrom, it will be re- called, was a staunch friend of ex- Mayor George A. Quigley, but be- eme dissatisfied and went over to the Curtis faction. y declaresj 1921, THE OBSERVER MAKES RANDOM O3SERVATIONS — ON — D ITS PEOPLE. \ builde hardware” and makes a report on what he learned. He writes that stocks in factories ars not large and that when the construc- tion of homes and buisness build- ings is resumed on a wide scale the demand for hardware may be far in excess of the supp e of the great interest in i this subject, the report of “Hardware Age” man is reprinted in full: “A persona] visit to some of plants manufacturing builders’ hardware discloses the fact that stock on hand is not nearly as large generally supposed. The aver- manufacturing firm is well stocked with high-priced raw ma- terial on which losses have been written off. Prices on the finished materials are perhaps 10 to 20 per cent, under the peak level. Further price reductions possibly are in the making, but if they are the chances are they will not come for some time. Because of the character of the goods produced, manufacturing costs, due to reductions in working hours, in operating forces and in raw material inventories, are tremely difficult to figure. Price re- ductions already established really were made in anticipation of lower manufacturing costs, which in at least some in:tances have not de veloped. As to stocks in manufs turers’ hands it is authorifatively stated that any fair sized buying movement on the part of the hard- ware jobber and retail dealer prob- ably would soon result in short- age. Most manufActurers agree that southern California is the brightest builders’ hardware market at the In this section of .he wholesale and retail stocks are believed to be small.” the age Accustomed as it to the spec- tacle of public service corporations sometimes overstepping propriety in jealously guarding their own inter- ests, the public was treated to an unusual thrill Thursday night when the Herald published an account of the hearing on the proposed jitney line between Meriden and this city It seemed utterly beyond imagina tion that the Connecticut company should adopt such a ‘dog in tbe manger” attitude toward the peti- tioner and the people whom he would serve. Such an attitude brings into bold relief, more clearly than any- thing which has happened heret fore, the “grab everything in sigh policy of those who control the des tines of the company. Between Meriden an this city live many families who are now witho transportation facilities of any kind other than those they provide themselves. They are miles frem trolley terminals and are not served by the railroad. If the women of the family wish to go shopping in New Britain or in Meriden, it is necessary for them to walk or, in case of fortunates, drive in an auto- mobile or hehind a horse. Fully cognizant of the true state of affairs, the Connecticut company had the temerity to appear in re- monstrance against the petition of Mr. French of this city for permis- sion to operate husses between Meri- dent and this city via Cat Hole Pass route. The trolley company cannot help the pcople in that district and it is determined that no one else shall help them because it fears a de- crease in its revenue over a very short stretch of track which would be parallelled by the jitney route. During the hearing it was vain- sloriously stated hy representatives of the company that there is now suffi- cient service facilities between the two cities. That is a gross misrepre- entation of the real facts. Cars leave spective termini half hourly. sover the distance in an hour and 35 min- utes and the fare charged is fifty cents.

The management of the Palace the- ater comes forth at this time with un announcement regarding the tractions booked for the fall season, starting next week. The Palace pa- trons are assured of the biggest and best attractions in the amusement world and the management considers itself very fortunate,in securing these big teatures for New Britain. A rep- resentative of the B. F. Keith circuit of vaudeville theaters, of which tho Palace has the honor to be a member, has just visited the Palace ow the an- nual tour of inspection and has as- sured the management of the best and biggest acts for the coming sea- son. As a special announcement the management requests everyone to watch for the excellent photoplays booked for an early showing. Among them are the biggest productions made for the fall season, and of a calibre that the Palace stands back of for quality of production. The first ones include Allen Holubar's spec- tacle, “Man-Woman-Marriage”; Pola Negri, the famous star of “Passion, in “Gypsy Blood”; Marshall Neilan's production, “Bob Hampton of Plac- er’; “The Old Nest,” that will be one of the big hits of the season; and “The Affairs of Anatol” the biggest production since the birth of photo- plays. The last named has a cast of nine famous stars including Wallace Reid, Elliot Dexter, Gloria Swanson, Bebe Danials, Wanda Hawley, Theo- dore Roberts and others equally as famous. Excellent music is now be- ing arranged for these wonderful pic. tures by the orchestra, whose motto for the coming fall season is “Bet- ter Mu The Palace also holds the franchise for t National pic tures which means that Charles R Anita Stewart, Norma Talmadsge Kathryn MacDenald, Richard Bartle- Wallace Reid, Dorothy Phillips.
