It is reported that a New Britain real estate dealer has bought consid- erable land near the church and will proceed to develop said land, erect- ing dwelling houses there, The trus- tees of the church have decided that now i8 a good time to settle the mat- ter of acquiring more land for the church and actlion will be taken by the meeting of the members Friday evening. | “No definite idea has been formed as to what will be done with said land, beyond the fact that the trustees feel that this property should be bought and held by the church in case ad- ditions to the buildings are needed. If the land becomes tied up, it will be much more difficult for the church to purchase it if the need for additions arises, The chairman of the board of trus- | tees is Thomas W. Emerson and the clerk is Harold W. Upson. Other members of the board are Miss Mar- Claude W. Stevens. A member of the board in coms menting on the proposed purchase this morning stated that it is not probable that a great deal of land will be acquired, but the trustees can- not go ahead and act alone.

IMMIGRANTS ARRIVING 14,000 Aliens Waiting To Rush Into America—Many Will Have To Be Sent Back to Old Country | New York, July 31.—Thousands of aliens from a score of European and Aslatic countries hung over the rails of ocean liners in Gravesend bay to- day, whiling away the weary hours before midnight when the immigra- tion quota for August opens.

Driver Cleared of Blame Following an investigation of the accident on East Main street yester- day in which Tony Scarfe of High ' | street, New Britain was bruised when a bicycle he was riding was smashel {by a Ford car, the driver has been found blameless by the authorities. Eyewitnesses of the affair gave as their opinion that Scarfe in attempt- ing to make the corner, became caught in the trolley tracks. The wheels on the bicycle skidded and threw the youth into the path of the oncoming Ford. The automobile was traveling at a slow rate of speed, and although the bicycle was smashed, it was more the way in which it was hit than the force of the impact which demolished it. The driver of the Ford brought Scarfe to the office of Dr. J. N. Bull and then gave his version of the affair to the police. He is held to be blameless in the accldent and no cause was found for arrest.

The concensus of opinion is that France is immovable in her position and that she has the support of Bel- gium as far as passive resistance and the continuation of the Ruhr occupa- tion are concerned. It is understood, however, that the Belgian note ex- pressed a wish for a solution of the tangle and also announces a willing- ness to agree to the appointment of an expert commission to consider Ger- many's ability to pay. Belgium is also said to have made certain con- structive suggestions which are the subject of considerable speculation. Reports differ as to the attitude of the Italian government. Some ru- mors have it that Premier Mussolini has sent or is sending a note cover- ing the situation. Others say that Italy is contenting herself with oral ex- changes of views, and that she, in the main, is sympathetic with the British position. RETURNED TO VIRGINIA Mary Algis or Mary Oliver, she uses both names, who has been held by the police for the past several weeks, was today sent back to her native state of Virginla.
