Charles A. Temple- ton's Fast Day proclamation are be- ing sent out to churches from the office of City Clerk A. L. Thompson at the request of the governor. The proclamation is: “Five years ago we were at war. Today we find ourselves prosperous and at peace while former associates still lie devastated and impoverished. It behooves us to give thanks for our blessings. It also behooves us to stop and think, to remind; ourselves of the lessons which in those dark days we learned of patriotism, of obedi- ence to law, of mutual helpfulness, of tolerance or seif sacrifice, “In pursuance of a wise and an- cient custom I designate Friday the thirtieth day of March as a day of fasting and prayer. Sanctioned by civil and religious usage, this day commemorates the death, for others, of the Saviour of the World. I recommend that, on this day, in our places of worship and in our homes, we pause from our daily occupations to contemplate His sacrifice; to pray for deliverance from those sins of prosperity, selfishness, softness and arrogance, which through history have brought nations to their ; to consider the needs of others and especially of those who, abroad and in our own midst, have lost health and substance in the com- | mon cause of right. And I recom- | mend that, having prayed and thought, we do not neglect to speak and act.” | AMERIGAN HUMORIST IS PARIS WIRELESS JOKER Interrupts Eiffel Tower Broadcasting | ana Shoots Jazz Into Classical | Selections { Paris, March 22.

NATION'S BUSINESS IS ’ GOING AT GOOD PACE | | Government Review Shows That All | Lines Are Doing Well at | Present. | Washington, March 22.-—All of the |production statements and business | records available to the commerce de- {partment indicated that business in |the United States during February was proceeding at the rapid pace noted earlier in the year, according |to a summary of these issued today. | Building, manufacturing and railroad freight movement the department's statement said all continued to reflect the stimulation. “Retail sales kept up to January's mark,” the review declared, “in spite of the shorter month, while the !transportation system showed signs of [overcrowding in the large carloadings and increased shortage of freight cars: The wholesale price index ad- vanced one point and again the de- cline in coal prices prevented a fur- ther rise. I"ood prices, both at whole- sale and retail, declined. Increased prosperity is confirmed by the marked decline in business failures and the continued rise in stock prices. “In the textile field the increasing {rate of cotton consumption reduced total stocks of raw cotton at the end of February to the lowest point re- ported at this season of the year since 1914. Wool receipts with one exception were higher in February than in any month since April, 1921; while silk consumption, also with one exception, was the largest since 1919. “Building contracts awarded in February amounted <to 41,611,000 square feet showing an increase over January in place of the expected sea- sonal decline.” PHILLIPS T0 ADDRESS ELK Secretary of New York Lodge En. gaged to Address Banqueters at An- niversary Excrcises on April 2, William T.

Now at Constantinople Washington, March 22.—Many in- teresting experiences are being en- joyed by the U. S. marines stationed aboard the cruiser Pittsburgh, now lying at anchor at Constantinople, ac- cording to recent advices from that vessel. Among the members of the marine guard aboard the cruiser is Thomas Willlam Katzung, who was aboard the Pittsburgh last October when that vessel left for' a two years' cruise aboard. He is a son of Willlam Katzung, 131 Main street, New Brit- ain, Conn. Thé marines have made themselves thoroughly at home in the Turkish capital. They frequently go ashore and view the old mosques, or visit the bazaars in search of curlos. The marines are being paid in ’J'urk-‘ ish money, which at the present low rate of exchange allows them to pur- chasg articles well below the ordinary price. Wherever they go they find much to interest them in observing the many different types of people in that cosmopolitan eity. Katzung joined the U. 8. marines at Hartford, No- vember 6, 1920, ana for several | months svas stationed at Paris Island, 8. C. Later he was assigned to duty |as a member of the U. 8. marine guard on the Pittsburgh. That vessel visited the Canary Islands and Gibral- |tar before going to Constantinople, where it has been lying at anchor since last November. DAN BREEN WOUNDED. Dublin, March 22.

SING SHAN SONGS Alderman Wells and Conncilman King Make Farewell Speeches At the March meeting of the com- mon council, held last night, it was voted to ask the general assembly' to amend the clty's charter to provide for a new commission to_manage the municipal garage. The actlon was taken after the garage committee had submitted such awrecommendation. The council members listened to farewell speeches by Alderman George H. Wells and Councilman M. I, King, who were attending their last sessions. Mayor Paonessa in replying to re- marks of two members took occasin to remark that he has been mayor not enly in name, but also in fact, and that he would continue to be although he realized that one could not as- sume such an attitude and yet seek re-election. Check Up on Danberg's Salary Councilman D, L. Nair moved that the minutes of the last meeting be changed to include Mayor A. M, Pao- nessa's promise that Clerk E. J. Dan- berg would receive a salary raise. He felt it was a matter that should be re- corded. It was so voted. As the minutes were submitted there was no mention of the promise. Several petitions were received and were referred to commissions by Al- derman George H. Wells, who pre- sided at the meeting. The ordinance committee submitted ordinances to govern the salaries of several officials and employes that were recently increased. Mayor A, M, Paonessa notified the council that it will be possible to pay Clerk Danberg his increased salary on April 1. On motion of Alderman J. 17, Gill it was voted to draft a new ordinance. Report on Garage. The garage committee submitted a report recommending establishment of a garage commission by charter amendment, effective in 1924. Alderman Wells explained the pro- posal. He said a council committee cannot give the necessary time to the work and he felt a commission would accomplish more. *Chairman E. F. Hall of the charter amendment committee advised -action at once if it is to be brought in with the amendments now pending. Councilman M. 8. Porter and Ar- thur Crusherg spoke in favor of a commission. Mayor Paonessa wanted the amend- ment to be effectivgfas soon as passed. He said he would be pleased to name Alderman Wells as chairman to take up the work with the new fiscal year. To accomplish that purpose Coun- cilman §. A. Lynch moved that the dates be stricken out. The matter was tabled temporarily. Contract With' Linder On motion of a sub committee it was voted to enter into a contract with Thomas Linder for five years at $4,500 a year with the understanding that he will move to New Britain. Reports of the board of compen- sation and assessment and of the board of public works were approved. A resolution to require the owners ot property at 217 Broad street to in- stall sidewalks was referred to the board of public works with power. City Engineer J. D. Williams told the council that mud slides down on the walk, Alderman F. L. Conlon felt the city could require the walk kept clear of mud., Daylight Saving Ordinance Tabled A ‘“daylight saving” ordinance to e effective from April 29 to Septem- ber 23 was submitted by Councilman Porter, who said the plan is the same as that of last year. Councilman Crusberg wanted the ordinance laid on the table one month. He thought there might be opposition. Alderman, Wells was opposed to this ordinance, “You can't fool yourself,” the al- derman reminded the council. He said many women having children going to school are opposed to any changes. Councilman Porter said are likely to adopt the idea. Councilman F, 8. Cadwell reminded the council that the war time emer- gencies that made daylight saving necessary do not mow exist and he was opposed. Councilman M. I, King was in fav- or of holding up action: one month. He told the council that he values that extra hour in bed.

The ordinance was tabled by unani- Mmous vote. ‘While waiting for Judge Kirkham to prepare a proposed amendment to the charter creating a garage com- mission, which was adopted, Alder- man Wells and Councilman King made their farewell speeches, Coun- cilman Nair, Alderman Gill and Con- lon and Mayor Paonessa replied. Al- derman Conlon for the minority side of the house, thanked the republicans for their cooperation during the year. The mayor expressed appreciation for cooperation given him. He said the success of his first year as mayor was due in a great measure to the council. He assured the members that he had been and would continue to be the mayor in fact, not only in name, although he knew that one could not do so and be preparing for reelection. He hoped that politics would be forgotten in the council. Conlon Raps Legislators During a discussion of the proposed amendment for the establishment of & garage commission, Alderman Wells asked if the senator and representa- tives from this district would be like- ly to oppose the bill in {ts present form. ‘“Judging from their actions recent. ly, I should say it is quite likely that they would," Alderman Conlon re- plied. Councilman Nair rose to his feet and defended the senator and repre- sentatives, In their appearance be- fore legislative committees to oppose certain amendments to the charter they-acted as individuals, the council- man told Alderman Conlon. The sixth warder then reminded his first ward colleague that at a meeting of the charter revision com- mittee, the senator and representa- tives had served notice that they would not be bound by any action of the charter revisionists, Weak Arches Do they bother you?
