CIVIC LEAGUE FEELS GREATLY SATISFIED Thinks That It Has Accomplished Much in “Cleaning Up” City That the Civic League s deter- mined In every way to aid State's At- torney Hugh M. Alcorn in dismantling the saloons and so-called “foodless” restaurants in New Britain, was de- cided at a meeting of the executive committee of the league held last night when it was voted to register complaints. with Chief Wiliam C. Hart and the state's attorney’s office ifany of the saloon proprietors or owners fail to comply with the dis- mantling orders recently lssued by Mr. Alcorn through County Detective Edward Hickey, Detective Risley and Detective Sergeant William P. McCue of the local police department. The committes, as a whole, re- ported itself as generally pleased with the action taken by Mr. Alcorn in dis- mantling the saloon although - in- dividual members fee] that there will be some proprietors and owners who will still feel free to disobey the law and continue to sell liquor., A ma- jority are pleased with the action so far, however, and are inclined to be- lieve that it is the beginning of the doing away with all saloons in this city. Members of the league feel as though they are largely responsible for the general cleanup in the city be- cause of their visit to the state's at- torney's office several weeks ago, when they asked that the liquor situ- ation and law enforcement situ- ation be looked into in New Britain. Buel B. Bassette stated this morning, however, that no visits were made to Hartford without first consulting or notifying Chief Hart. Tentative plans were made last night by the committee to have a public meeting of the league some- time in September. Where the meet- ing will be held has not been decided upon but the president has been asked to secure a noted speaker who will probably have as his subject “Law Enforcement” as regards the liquor situation at that time.

Detroit, Mich., Aug. 9.-—Edsel Ford announced that the Ford Motor com- pany will ask an injunction restrain- ing the city from placing an order with the Cadillac Motor company for six touring cars and one chassis to be used as police flyers. “It is not a matter of needing the business, but of principle,”” he sald. “The Lincoln car won the speed tests conducted by the “division of motor transportation and the specifications said that the result would be taken into consideration in awarding the contract for the.flyers.” | After the council awarded the con. | tract to the Cadillac, Mayor Dore- mum vetoed the action and declared it illegal. Last night the council overruled him by a vote of 6 to 2. As a result of the mix-up, Edsel Ford intimated that the Ford Motor company, of which he is president, is not likely to be interested in the further financing of the city.

Hodge of the bank who had advised Mr. Philbrick to have the police hold Maddox on the basis of three forged checks returned to. the bank and which Mr. Philbrick had made good. It had happened that a constable here and Deputy Sheriff F. J. Hosford of New Preston were on the watch for Maddox on the warrants charging him with forging checks.

The officers had intended to try and pab him in the house, The murder of Trinyle came just as plans to get Maddox had been completed.
