Berlin News TRAFFIC OFFICER 15 STRUCK BY AUTO Frank Brown Seriously Injured Following Accident PIONESSK IS SPEAKER Tells Italians That They Should Not Flay Their But Should Try to Help Them—Fiscal Town Officers Year Fnds Thursday—DBriefs. Traffic Officer Frank Brown, of Kensington, was seriously injured while on duty at the corner of Farm- ington road and Berlin street last eve- ning when he was struck by an auto- moblle and carried for a distance of 50 feet on the bumper of the machine. He was taken to the New Britain gen- eral hospital this morning where it had been planned to have an X-ray picture taken to discover the extent of his injuries. The machine which struck Officer Brown, was owned and driven by John Burrows of 71 Lafayette street, New Britain, who was arrested and has been ordered to appear bhefore Judge George Griswold in the local court on Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock. When seen this morning, Mr. Brown was able to tell of the accident and said that he, as usual, was doing traffic duty at the Blake and Wood- ruff corner when he saw an automo- bile coming frem the direction of Meriden with another machine com- ing from Hartford. He put up his hand as a signal for the northbound machine to stop as he was going to allow the southbound car to go ahead, The north bound car did not stop, however, and struck Mr. Rrown, with the result that he was thrown on the bumper and his left shoulder struck the radiator of the car with great force. Officer Brown asserts that the car was traveling at an excessive rate of speed because of the fact that the driver was unable to stop the car un- til he had gone for a distance of about 50 feet. Mr. Brown was badly bruised about the shoulders as well as on the legs. He was taken to the home of Mrs. John Pinches of Berlin street and was attended by Dr. T. C. Hodgson. The accident occurred at about § o'clock, when Mr. Brown was prepar- ing to leave his post of duty and to take the 8 o'clock trolley home. He asserts that the driver of the machine said that the headlights on the south bound machine were so strong that they blinded him and he couldn't see the officer until it was too late. The argument for a traffic post or guide at this point appears to be win- ning favor among several residents of the town and is strengthened with the accident of last night. It has been said for some time that some sort of & post is needed at this corner because of the intersection of Farm- ington road to New Britain which makes it dangerous for a traffic po- liceman to stand in the road to direct traffic and particularly at night when 1t is dark.

C. F. Lewis, tax collector, is also preparing a report of the money which has been collected in taxes this past year. It is understood that Mr. Lewis has secured a large amount in back taxes which have heen due {he town for several years. A special drive for this was made by bim ear- lier in the year when the taxes were first due.

Plainville News JOHNSON SAYS HE'S | INRECEPTIVE HooD Would Run for Ofiice for Tenth Year if Nominated SHAKER FARNS QUTING Addison Ives Marries Granby Girl Saturday Afternoon—Two Men Ar- rested For Drunkenness, Trial To- night—Legion Circus Lnds, Willlam J. Johnson, for the past nine years selectman of the town, is in a vreceptive mood for the office again this year providing he is nom- inated at the coming caucus, “Yes'", sald Selectman Johnson this morning when approached on the sub- jiect, “I will run for the office again this term if the party sees fit to nom- inatp me at the caucus. I don't know how the feeling is this year as I haye not had the opportunity to hear what the reports are. However, I will be in the race if 1 am the peo- ple's choice.” Selectman Johnson will round out his ninth consecutive year in October and during that time. His c clenti- ous work has met with the ;:Epm\al of a majority of the residents and he is largely responsible for much of the Improvement seen during the past few years in this town. The selegtman’s office does not re- quire all: the time of the man per- forming the duties, but Mr. Johnson spends the greater part of the day at his work. This term he was instru- mental in paring the estimated ex- penses down considerably, with a saving of thousands of dollas which however, the school board needed. It is understood from good author- ity, that a man will be put up by the republican party this year to oppose Selectman Johnson for the office. Last year, after Mr. Johnson had won out, it leaked out that some of the G. O. P. heads had been considering an- other man instead of Selectman John son but their attempt failed. Selectman Johnson predicts many *hanges this election and looks for- ward to a general shake-up in the ranks of both parties. Assisting Mr. Johnson on the selectman's board are “harles H. Calor, republican, and Frederick Spencer, democrat. Judge Edward P. Prior, who was put up by the democrats last term for the select- man's office, was defeated by one .ote by Mr. Spencer. The caucuses for the town elections will be announced soon as they must he held at least 27 days before the late set for the casting of the bal- lots. Shaker ¥Farm Outing.
