One of the worst automobile acci- dents.of the year on the Berlin turn- pike occurred last eyening at about 7 o'clock at a peint about 200 yards north of the Meriden town line when a Stutz four-passenger touring car, owned by W.

Although nothing definite was ex- pressed the' writer hints that if noth- ing is done to ease the situation within a short time, and there is no chance for adequate freight service, it would not be difficult for the people to see that it would be useless for the shop to continue. | The editorial also takes a slam at | the workers in the factory and con- tinues as follows: “With consequent lack of employ- ment and an enforced idleness on the part of our employees, the rock bot- tom reason would be that a com- | paratively small number of men were unwilling to be fair with you and | were quick to seize upon an oppor- tunity of taking undue advantage of you. What is true of this factory is true of all facteries and practically . a hundred million people.” The factory now, however, is work- ing on full time and there are even several departments operating on night shifts.

Highway Hearing Soon. | Pending the return of Referee The- odore Case of Hartford, who is away on his vacation, there will be a hear- ing on the proposed Casting company highway in the local court.

The | Hartford car was not badly damaged, as the front wheel on the left hand side was the only part of it smashed, althaugh one of the mud guards was badly bent and twisted. Hartford Driver Explains Cronjn, the driver of the Hartford machine, said that he was proceeding along the road on his way to New Haven to meet Mr. Fuller and that he was on the right side of the road.
