DENIES HE SAID ~ FORD PAID BILLS Kyres Discusses Expulsion From Marie's Train Denver, Col, Nov. 10 (A—J, B. Ayres, representative of the Ford Motor company, in New York, was “rebuked and expelled” from Queen Marie's train at Seattle, “like a naughty school boy for simply try- ing to be human,” the Denver Times quotes him as saying. A statement attributed to Ayres, | which he denled, that the Ford Mo- tor company was paying incidental expenses of the Rumanian party's tour, led to his dismissal. Ayres said he wanted to give Col. John H. Carroll, in charge of the queen’s journey, credit “for acting as a perfect gentleman and doing only what he believed his duty dic- tated.” [ Ayres pointed out that he was the advance man who saw to it that the crown prince and crown princess of Sweden and before them the Prince of Wales, had Ford- made automobiles ready and wait- ing at each stop. “With all that experience, I cer- tainly should know my place and my business” said Ayres, “but ap- parently Colonel Carroll doesn’t think so.” Ayres is arranging transportation for the royal party when it arrives here today at Colonel Carroll's re- quest. he said. Avres denied he carried Thuge bouquets to Marle or carried the prince’s sword and other things at- tributed to him. He also denied he was alone with Princess Ileana at the California-Washington game at Qeattle Saturday. He sald he con- sidered it a part of his duties to accompany the party to the game.

POLICE PENALIZED FOR MISSING CALLS But Discipline Committee Finds No Charge Against Bloomaquist Policeman Ernest Bloomquist, who was reported by Street Sergeant Michael Flynn for being in a house on High street longer than the ser- geant thought necessary, was exon- erated by the discipline committee in a report to the board of police com- missioners at the monthly meeting last night. The report stated that the sole reason the sergeant report- ed the officer was that he believed the complaint that caused the latter to go into the house was so trivial it should have been attended to in a much shorter period than the of- ficer took. Policeman James Sullivan was fined four days’ pay for failing to put in a duty call, the discipline committee feeling that he should be punished in view of the fact that he had committed the same offense be- fore. Policeman Vincenzo Santucel was fined two days’ vacation for being late on a duty call. In the cases of Supernumerary Policemen Gigliott! and Muszynski, the committee reported that no ac- tion was necessary, as the com- plaints in both Instances were of a minor nature. The scheduled hear- ing on the case of Policeman John O'Keefe was not held because of the absence of Commissioner R. W. Chamberlain. A special meeting will probably be held to act on his case. Surgeon Urged to Be Carcful Dr. E. R. Curran, police surgeon, attended the meeting by request of the commissioners and was notified that in the future great care must be cxercised In measuring and welghing applieants for placés in the department, Discrepancles were found in his reports of the physical examination of two applicants and he explained that it is possible he was careless and it is also possible that the scales at police headquar- ters, which were used to check up on his report, may be out of align- ment with bis scales. Relative to the reports as to ‘the men’s height, he said he had no measuring apparatus in his office until recently. He sald it is possible for persons to streteh a fraction of an inch when stand- ing erect. Dr. Curran sald he was not aware when he took over his duties, that applicants wers to be measured in their stocking feet, as candidates for insurance are measured with their shoes oh. He was given a copy of the rules relative to appointment of policemen. Commissioner M. W. Bannan told Dr. Curran that men have been re- jected because their height was a fraction of an inch below the re- quirement and it must be borne in mind that every applicant will be given equal treatment. Nobody should be passed by the examiner unless the requirements are com- plied with, the commissioner sald. Chalrman Pajewski added that the board and the police surgeon should have a closer contact than they have had. Dr. Curran sald he would re- examine one of the applicants whe was rejected as he belleves the man can meet the requirements as to height. Holiday Hardware Sales Likely to Be Excellent New York, Nov. 10.—Demand for holiday merchandise is beginning.to assume large proportions in the fm- portant hardware market centers, Hardware Age will say tomorrow in its weekly hardware market sum- mary. “Many dealers have already received shipments of gift lines and have them on display. The hardware trade generally predicts a good Christmas trade. Orders to date on this class merchandise encourage this opinion. . “Staple lines show satisfactory ac- | tivity throughout the country, with | city and town business showing the | greatest reported improvement. Fall | lines are moving well. Cold weather in many sections has stimulated the movement of fall and winter hard- ware, The collection situation shows little change. Prices generally are firm, with a few competitive items showing small declines.” |READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS | FOR BEST RESULTS | | LOSS OF SLEEP SPEEDS UP BRAIN But at Same Time Body Strength Dies Down — New York, Nov. 10.—(P—TLoss ot sleep promotes rather than de- creases the efficlency of the brain, but takes it out on the body, it has been shown by recent experiments in the psychologist's laboratory. Results of these experiments, started at Yale and carried on at Colgate university, are published in the current {ssue of Industrial psy- chology.- Colgate university depart- ment of psychology publication. The article, by Donald A. Laird, head of the department, and William Wheeler, jr., of the college of physi- clans and surgeons, New York, tells conclsely “what it' costs to lose sleep.” Three young men and fifteen daily difficult multiplication prob- lems were the primary materials of the experiment.. Also included in the laboratory equipment were the alarm clocks waking the students after two hours less sleep than thelr habitual quota, a stop-watch to time their multiplication exercises, a mathematical expert to check thelr results for errors, and an ap- paratus measuring thelr oxygen consumption. It was found that while each yaung man did his sums from sev- eral seconds to more than a minute more quickly, and with no more mistakes on the shorter sleep ration, he used up from two to three times as much energy in the act. Answering the question: additional energy- burned due to the more severe conditions can be made up in food, why should the energy cost be considered?” the writers state: “The analogy of the automobile wiil answer this. Using additional fuel the car be driven in low gear. The distance is covered, the added cost of gasoline is not enormous— but the machine will not be in good condition after many miles have been traveled.” “It the The Magnificent Strand A Tremendous Compliment to the People of New Britain A Veritable Palace— Sincerely Artistic—Beautifully Practical To the Very Last Doo'r Knob the Builders’ Hardware Used, is CORBIN EXCLUSIVELY The Logical Choice Meets the Demands of Beauty— Defeats the Ravages of Time A Word to the Wise: CORBINIZE Sole New Britain Selling Agency 73 ARCH STREET Telephone 106 “Hardware Meant' for Hardwear} THIS FIRM SOLD TO HOFFMAN BROS.
