Rev. Father Altri, Spanish priest, who has been appealinz to Americani- zation Director James E. O'Brien for help, is becoming discouraged. Amer- canization directors are the first per- sons usually to extend the glad hand of welcome to the newcomer of any na- ticnality and foreign born residents al- ways feel that the director of Ameri- canization is their best personal friend. It is for this reason men of many races in this city take their troubles to Mr, O"Brien, and it is for this reason that Rev. Altri has gone to the latter with his troubles, revers- ing the order and making the layman & sort of a convenient father confessor ard advisor to the priest. Looks To California. Since early in the summer, when the city refused to employ Spaniards cn municipal jobs, by order of Mayor 0. F. Curtis, upon the latter's ruling that they were not citizens of New Uiitain or ‘here long enough to entitle hem to preference over long time res- ulents, the priest has been tryinz to ot his people away from this part of ¢ country. He has had as his ob- jeetive the sunny slopes of California, the climate there resemblnig to a con- silerable extent that of his natice land. Some time ago Jose Riera, a local Spaniard, received a letter from the Miguel Ripodas company, an export- ing and importing firm in southern California, stating that there was pienty of work in the fields and on farms, the kind of work Spaniards are smiliar with. If the employers out there could be prevailed upon to pro- ide transportation the local Spanish colony .voted to pick up bag‘and bag- gw3e and depart. A committee of three was selected o investigate the matter more fully. "he committee was sent to California with instructions to look over the field. inake what arrangements where neces- sary, stand sponsors for the others 1nd arrange for transportation if pos- ible. The commiittee found conditions avorable, there was plenty of work nd a scarcity of men, but the em- NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27 HARDING NAMES COTTON “PRINCESS” Miss Mary Adams Stevens carniyal irom the Bistrict of Columbia. of Washington, descendant of John Quincy Adams, named by President Harding to attend the r“Queen of the Cotton” at Waco, Texas, as ‘princess” night letter, Mr. Frank A.

The proposition made by the ocal Spaniards was to work the arms on a commission basis, two hirds of the prodv~e going to the la- Jorer and one third to the owner, no actual cash being paid. It is under. :tood that this is a familiar custom in Tat ‘state. Much Work, No Money It was at this point that Rev. Al- tri, disappointed over the failure » his committee, appealed to Mr. rBrien. There was only one thing he lafter could do and he did it. Ho mmeédiately wrote to Chicago and Northwestern Railway officials and the matter was taken up by Railw Agent C: W. Gray who sent investi- gators to California to look into the situation. The report by the railway investigators corroborated the report by the committee of Spaniards, the work was there but there was no money for transportation. ‘Then Rev. Altri thought he might met his men started on the way to California by finding them work in the farms in the middle west, and again Mr. O'Brien at the = request of the priest, communicated with Mr. Gray. Mr. Gray’s Letter On October 16, Mr. Gray wrote the ollowing letter: “I notice in tonight's paper where 1,000 corn huskers are wanted in Nebraska, which usually last three and a half months, clippings enclosed for your: observation. “Having come from that part of the country the idea struck me at once that you might interest the Spaniards, as it appears to me that is just the kind of work that would appeal to them. “1 imagine after a couple of days’ try-out they could earn about $4 to $5 per day and their board included, which means 6 to 7 dollars per day. The fare to Omaha, Neb., via Springfleld B. & A.—N. Y. C—C. N.

NEW HUPMOBILE PRICES EFFECTIVE TODAY The following telegram was re- ceived by A. M. Paonessa, proprietor og City Service Station yesterday aft- ernoon giving him the reduction on Hupmobiles as follows: “Effective, today Hupmobile st prices are as follows f.o.b. factory: Touring car and roadster reduced 1o $1,250; sedan, reduced to $2,150; coupe, reduced to $2,100; chassis, re- duced to $1,100.” There has been a total reduction of $435 on the open model; §650 on the sedan, and $625 on thé coupe since May 1, 1921. At these prices the Hupmobile stands out stronger than ever as the greater dollar for dollar value on the market today. These reductions ring the Hupmobile from $100 to 250 lower than this model has ever sold for. In addition, the cars are equipped with cord tires, windshield cleaners, nd motometers. as standard equip- ment on the open models, and in ad- dition to the above the closed cars ome through equipped with heater, rubber step mats, rubber pedal and our Gabriel snubbers. It is a notable fact that the Hupp Motor Car Corporation has beent one of the very few automobile cora- panies that have. been able to do an increased 'business during this year. They are in production and have the ready cash to discount all bills pay- able each month, and among the \any improvements it is notable hat they are now able to purchasoc he very best grade of leather for up- olstering for less than they paid for in inferior grade lust year; also able to equip thpir cars with Marshall prings, which is the highest srade ttainable for less than they paid for in inferior grade a year ago; cord tires for less than they paid for ‘abric tires; better grades of top ma- terial, etc., etc.. until today they are roducing a car that is far superior ‘o any car that they have ever pro- duced. Instead of giving the dealer a trad- ng aliowance, or in other - words using a fictitious list, they are giving he public the benefit of their in- creased facilities and buying powers to the very limit. With the interna- tioral revutation which the Hupmo- vi'e has established in all parts of the world we are conseryative‘in stat- ing that every year is a Hupmobile year and .that every model of Hup- mobile that the Hupp Motor Car Cor- peration have ever built has always tecn a wonderful model and it is with great pride that the City Service Sta- tion states to the public of New Brit- ain that they know that the Hupn.o- bile is the fliest car of its class in the world.

Roosevel’s Birthday Will Be Celebrated Tomorrow New York, Ogt. 27.—Three letters in the handwriting of Theodsre Roosevelt, presented recently to the Roosevelt Memorial association, throw interesting light on the early character of the fu- ture president, whose birthday will be celebrated tomorrow throughout the country. The great American’s modesty as a young man, verging nearly on timidity, is disclosed in a note accepting the of- fer of \a trusteeship of the New York Infant asylum. The letter was written to Dr_ Henry D. Nicoll, then head of the asylum, in 1881, the year when Roosevelt, then 23 years old, took his His “*‘absolute inexperience,”” Roose- velt wrote, would prevent his ‘‘being of much use,”” but, with a determina- tion also evidenced in another letter to Dr. Nicoll, he promised to ‘‘try my best.** Ten months later, in 1882, he wrote Dr, Nicoll again, expressing pleasure in accepting the position as trustee, but adding: ““I only fear that I will by no means come up to your expectations, But I shall do my best.” Roosevelt's early love for qutdoor life, a characteristic which had much to do with the molding of his later life, and his admiration for picturesque charac- ters in frontier history, come to the front in the third letter, written in 1890 to Richard Watson Gilder, editor of Century magazine. The letter is in 4 nervous, hasty seript and, was written from Washing- ton, where Roosevelt was holding his first federal office, that of civil service commissiqner. missioner. In it he appealed to Mr. Gilder to have a biography or sketch of Kit Car- son’s life written and pointed out that Carson and his comrades were ‘‘men of real mark’ and their work ‘‘of ut- most consequence and should not be al- lowed to be forgotten'’—the same ap- peal now being sent out broadcast by the Roosevelt Memorial association for contributions to perpetuate the memory of Theodore Roosevelt. He suggested that Mr. Gilder, obtain an article on civil service reform from ‘‘Cabot Lodge,”’ who, he said, was ‘‘a man of note and a rising one in his party.’” At that time Senator Lodge was a representative in congress. At Roose- velt's suggestion the articles were writ- ten by Mr_T.odge in the magazine dur-. ing that and the following year. In 1890, Roosevelt was a prolific writer of stories of hunting and of wild animal life and he concluded his. letter in the spirit of the literary freelunce, keea to sell his stories. | “fwill buckle down: to the taree| hunting articles for bear, moose, pan- ther, ete., and I will bring in the “Turk’ story,’”’ he wrote, and added the stuggestion, "My bear scrape wouid, I think, make =2 good picture, if you thought it worth while; also the death of the mountain bison, and of the bull | moose."” The two Nicoll letters were presented | to the Roosevelt Memorial Association | by Mrs_Henry D. Nicoll and the Gilder | letter by the publishers of. Century Magazine. —DENTISTS— A. B. Johnson, D. D. S. T. R. Johnson, D. D. S.
