About 25 property owners along| Whiting street turned out last évening to attend the hearing of the Town Plan commission regarding the estab- lshing “of bullding lines ‘along Whit- ing street and a great deal of interest was shown by them in the proposed changes on both sides of the street, A map of the street was exhibited showing the bullding lines as they were proposed, and after a general discussion, no real objection could be found by those present, One change in the plans was suggested by A. H. Condell, and that was that the line from Hamlin to Broad streets should be brought out to be even with Hart's garage. This was brought up because the garage Is already established be- yond the lines proposed by the com- mission but it had no direct bearing on the plans with regard to any other part of the street, Jmmediately after the hearing, the commission held a meeting to take action on the question. After a short discussion, it was voted to approve the bullding lines as shown on the map. The building line to be established therefore, is as follows: Iast side of ‘Whiting street, from Central Square beginning at the Nerl block and ex- ending to Hart's corner, a building 16 feet, West side of Whiting street, to Broad street, a building and ver- anda line of fect already estab- ished and from Broad street to the trolley turnout, a building ‘line of 25 teet and a veranda line of 27 feet. Regarding the suggestion set forth y Mr. Condell, if It is the sentiment »f the property owners along the sec- ion mentioned between Broad and 27 been witnessed since the innovation has been started, Miss Peradino of New Hritain, sister to the dancing In- atructor, with her parlnor. carried off the coveted prize, Fire Hydrants, It has been suggested that those property owners who have fire hy- drants in front of their property, take it upon themselves to clean a spa around the hydrants, 'The town o ficlals have been doing their utmos to take care of these matters, but It will be a long time before all the hy- drants In town will be cleared. Prop- erty owners, for thelr own benefit, are asked as a co-operative measure, to clear a space around the hydrants in order that there might be no tieup In case of a fire, This will not only pro- tect themselves, but will also ald the officlals of the town a great deal. Mrs. Martha Blodgett, The funeral of Mrs. Martha Fliza- beth Blodgett was held this afternoon with prayer service at her home at 1:30 o'clock conducted by Rev, A, B, DuBerry, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal chureh, and from the church at 2 o'clock, Burial was in West cemetery, Raskethall Game The town basketball team romped away from the Crescents of New Britain in the New Britain Boys' club gymnasium Thursday night by the score of 51 to 22, At no time were the local hoys hard pressed by the Hardware City team and after the first few minutes of play, it was evi- dent that the result would be a walk- away for the locals. The management has been making efforts to fix up a good schedule for the season and for that reason, games with any teams about the state are heing sought. Trolleys Blocked Great difficulty is being experienc- »d in town by large trucks getting stalled in the trolley tracks and thereby blocking the lines, Time aft- er time, because of the large banks of snow in the gutters of the streets, rucks making de'iveries to the stores tbout town have been forced to fol- ow the trolley lines which have been leared, and have been forced to stoy heir vehicles in the paths of the trol- ¢y8. This has been throwing the rolleys off of schedule in many in. itances, and no relief from the sit 'ation is looked forward to. Many complaints are being heard ibout the town also concerning th: :ondition of the crosswalks, At the wresent time, no snow haa been clear d from the cross walks and peop re forced to wade through ban! vhich reach over their shoe top e town officials hope to have ti ondition remedied in the near futur Bowling Alleys The bowling alleys in town are ‘earing completion and Hart's alley ‘il most probably be finished abou he third week in January. Work i lamlin streets to put this change into ifect, a petiticn may be offered to wut the matter through and the town olan commission will act on it ac rordingly. If there is'no appeal from he decision of. the commission, then he building lines as stated will b yut into effect. The following members of the com nission were present at the meeting ohn i.amb, chairman; F. F. Wheel- r, secretar, John P. McCarthy ames’ Simpson, R. G. Hart, First jelectman William J.

Co. plant started a loud and long blast. Many stopped to listen for a ire alarm, but no box number was heard. TInstead, the whistie kept blowing steadily and town firemen hurried to their stations expecting a call. Rumors about town this morning sald that there had been a fire in the plant but inquiry there revealed the fact that the whistle was being tuned up yesterday and in some unex- plained manner, it began blowing last night. According to the officials of the plant, there was no fire. Kiddics' Night Tonight.

As Ismet Pasha and his associates awaited further instructions from their government at Angora it seemed certain that a settlement of even one of the troublesome problems on the agenda could not take place this year. It is believed that Ismet in a report to his government called special at- tention to the declaration of Lord Curzon that the British government insisted upon recognition of its man- ,date over the Mosul vilayet. Action by the allies on the Armen- fan plea for a national home in Tur- :key was expected today.

Unfavoraple and unexpected develop- ments in the political and economic generally con- sidered as the only probable obstacles to arrest the improvement in the bus- iness and financial world which be- gan in the summer of 1921 and has i continued with few temporary inter- ruptions until the present time. Prosperity Predictions. The prediction of further business prosperity is based on several known Foremost among these is the casiness of the money market and the huge sums avallable for commercial credit. In addition most stocks of merchandise are low. Rallroad traffic is close to record levels, exports are increasing, the principal European exchanges are heading back to par and the Europ- ean economic situation shows signs of improvement. Exports 'are in- creasing and unfilled orders for rail- road equipment are the largest in vears. Other favorable signs are seen in the facts that no big strikes are threatened or pending a great amount of construction work is still in arrears despite a record breaking year of ac- tivity in the bullding industry; auto- mobile production reached a new peak, which probably will be exceed- ed next year, while gasoline con- sumption has been the highest in his- tory and electric companies are do- ing a record business. Great Stock Sales, Sales of stocks during the year to- iled approximately 260,000,000 ‘hares as compared with 171,000,000 ast year, 223,000,000 in 1920 and 107,800,000 in the record-breaking ear of 1919. Bond sales this year eached the unprecedented total of 1pproximately $4,155,000,000 as 'gainst $3,505,000,000 in 1921. The reak of bond prices for the year was veached in the middle of September nd the lowest level early in January. dne of the features of the bond mar- et was the return of U. 8. govern- ment bonds to par. The widest fluctuation in the stock narket took place in shares of the \tlantic Refining Co., seldom dealt in vhich ranged from a low of $900 to high of $1,575 or $675 difference. Industrial Issues, Among the active industrial issues Mexican Petroleum provided the chief feature, getting as low as 1063 and as high as 322 or a range of 215 1-4 points. Approximately 95 per cent. of this stock has been acquired, through conversion, by the Pan- American Petroleum and Transport Co., thus virtually removing it as a market factor. Among the railroad shares Michigan Central fluctuated the most selling between 156 and 330 or 174 points. The smallest fluctua- tion took place in Alaska gold mines which ‘sold between 7-8 and 1-4 off. Other interesting develop.nents in the stock market was the declaration of stock dividends totalling more than $2,000,000,000, While most industries showed sub- stantial recovery from post war infla- tion, the number of failures during he year was the largest ever record- ed. Severe labor troubles particu- larly the miners and shopmen’s strike | also had disastrous effects, costing each of the principal railroad sys- tems millions of dollars and even more to business generally. For the first time on record there was a marked shortage of manual labor due in part to the restriction of immigra- tion. Crops, with few exceptions, were of record size and the higheér prices brought vastly greater purchasing power to the agricultural regions par- ticularly the south.
