PERSHING WARNS OF CRODKEDNESS Says Downfall of U. §. Comes When Elections Are Bonght Chicago, Nov. 11 (#—The down- fall of the United States, will not be far off, “if the time ever comes when public offices can be virtually bought and sold, either directly or indirect- ly,” General John J. Pershing, war- time commander of the American Expeditionary force, declared today before a meeting of Kiwanis clubs here. “In the light of recent events in certain states” he sald, “some of our citizens would modify the meth= ods of selecting candidates for of- fice. If the presen system encourages or permits the contributions of inor- dinate sums by wealthy candidates or their supporters, it should re- celve the most careful scrutiny by honest citizens. “The presumption that large ex- penditures for campaign purposes may be made without ulterior mo- tive does not appear to be warrant- ed. To sanction the expenditure of excessive amounts of money to se- cure the nomination of candidates for office would be to exclude un- justly all but the wealthy from such contests.” General Pershing asserted that the “great part taken by our country hastened the favorable conclusion” of the World war, adding that “there is little doubt that the contest would have terminated otherwise, had it not been that the extraordinary as- sistance sent by America arrived at the critical moment.” He made a plea for preparedness, contending that *“if we could have| armed and equipped even half a million men and sent them to Fance carly in 1917, the probabilities are that the war could have been won that year.” He also appealed for the main-| tenance of law and order, quonng{ statistics to prove the existence of | “‘a, veritable reign of terror in many | places” in the United States.

SHOE tarlft system | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, -THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1526, FLASHES OF LIFE; LOW COLLAR AND BLUE COAT FOR AFTERNOON STYLE GHILD SHOT DOWN IN GHICAGO STREET Victim May Have Been Mistaken| for Another Girl Nov. was Chicago, 11.—{#)— Shot down as she hurrying home through the dusk from a violin les- son, fifteen year old Victoria Dele- mata was slain, police believed to- day, as a result of mistaken identity. The girl's mother heard her cry as she fell mortally, wounded in the middle of the street near her step- father's delicatessen store. A theory that the girl, a pupll in the Chicago Heights High school, was slain when she fled from the advances of some loiterer was dis- credited when it was discovered that two shots had been fired from as far away as the sidewalk. Police argued that such an assallant would be unlikely to fire more than once it at all, and the girl apparently had not been harmed before she was mortally wounded. Detectives then learned that Victoria very much resembled a Miss Helen Lagura, who lives near the delicatessen and who a short time ago received a threatening let- ter from a suitor she dismissed. Also it was found that an un- | identified man who forced his way into the girl’'s home to look at the | body, had become very agitated and had fled to a waiting automobile | when attempts were made to ques- tion him.

Less than 8 per cent of the motor in Connecticut for this year have been offered for the for vehicles registered registration for the year 1927, statement says. Since Oct. 1, the department has been issuing registration certificates for the coming calendar year, in an distribute the registration several weeks and avoid congestion in the final- days of 1926 and the opening days of the new year. The response | has been greater than it was in !hel corresponding period of last year, but the average distribation in the effort to burden over a period of the offices in w Haven, Bridgeport, ‘Waterbury, New London and Stam- ford in addition to the main office in this city.

The rule that motor vehicle own- ers who Wesire to retain the regis- tration numbers assigned to them for 1926 must file application with the required fee before Nov. 15 is believed to have influenced early registration of many cars for which the department has given out 1927 markers. The 1927 number plate, which have a maroon backgrounda with | white letters, are being given out as cars are registered, with instructions that they must not be displayed un- til the last week of December, 1926. “SEMI-ELOPEMENT” SAY PARENTS OF THE BRIDE Mr. and Mrs. Ditmars Admit Their Daughter Is Bride of Yale Student.
