Healey, former vice- President of the United States bank at Hartford, has been relesaed from jall and placed in probation of Sheriff George H. Gabb. Healey was sen- tenced last March n superior court to serve one year, and a fine of $1,00 on charge of embezzlement of $8 075.38 from that bank. Judge Haines however, has forwarded a written ap- plication, made out by States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn, ordering the release of Healey. Healey had served almost seven months of his sentence and ‘his conduct at the jail had been of the best. Full restitution has been made at the bank and also for the alleged shortage of the exact amount to the funds of the local Red Cross treasury. Healey resigned as local treasurer and was succeeded by Leon A. Sprague when an accounting of the books un- covered the shortage here. His plans for the future are undetermined. BIG CANADIAN FORD PROFITS. $2,121,501:11 on $37,826,473.40 Busi- ness for Year Ended July 31. Detroit, Sept. 30.—The Ford Motor company of Canada did business to the amount of $37,836,473.40 in the year ended July 31, 1921, according to a report issued by Gordon M.

ROAD BUILDING COSTS State Commissioner Has Been Able to Save About 25 Per Cent on All Highway Contracts. Hartford, Sept. 30.—Changes in costs for road constructions have come so rapidly in Connecticut since the logislature adjourned in June that State Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett has been able to save 25 per cent on contracts for concrete pavement on his estimates submitted and on which his departmental al- lowances were made in the state budget for the next two years. The expense of one section in the highway system had been estimated at $60,000 a mile but the contract was placed at $45,000. As Connecticut spent $7,127,960 on its highways for the fiscal year ending July 1, the low- er cost is expected to mean an ex- panded program for developing the highways across the state over which a great volume of traffic flows in both directions between New*York and the New England states. IRISH REPLY T0 G0 OUT THIS EVENING Little Activity Marks Meeting| of Sinn Feiners Dublin, Sept. 30.—(By Associated Press)—Sinn Fein Ireland’s answer to the British government's invitation to a conference to be held in London on October 11 was expected to be ready for the Dail Eireann cabinet when it assembled here today. Eamon De Val- era, leader of the Irish republicans, conferred with colleagues yvesterday after receiving Premier Lloyd George's note, and it was generally believed that the Irish reply was virtually de- cided upon during the afternoon. Satisfaction with the tone of the prime minister's communication ex- mressed by Sinn Fein leaders vester- day following its receipt gave the pub- lic reason to believe that the cabinet would accept the invitation to the Lon- don conference. Mr. Lloyd George made it clear that the British government would receive the Irish delegates as “spokesmen for the people they represented,” but his note seemed to place no other condi- tions on the holding of the confer- ence. The very phrase quoted, however, appeared to be regarded in some quar- ters as giving ground for criticism. The critics of this phraseology here regarded it as ambiguous and as pos- sibly limiting the status of the dele- gates. ‘The Dail cabinet meeting was set for three o'clock this afternoon. It was not expected that the reply to Lloyd Georgs would be dispatched before 6 would not be given out for publication until some time afterward. There was no especial activity at the Mansion House this morning, Mr. De Valera and the other leaders not ar- riving until afternoon. GRABECK APPOINTED Building Commission Appoints Him As Second Assistant City Electri- cian—Salary $1,500 Per Year. William J. Grabeck, appointed last night by the building commission as second assistant city elec- trician, will begin his duties on Oct. 1. The salary recommended is $1,- 500 per year.
