SERVIGE BUREAU MAY GLOSE DOORS Indifference to Red Gross Cam- paign Is Blamed The Municipal Home service bu- reau probably will close in this city, because of the failure of the Red Cross roll call, according to a state- ment made today by Leon A. Sprague, treasurer. Not only is it likely that the Home service bureau will close its work here, that of looking after needy veterans and their families, furnishing food and clothing, and all kinds of service for the veterans and their families, but the annual Christ- mas kits to soldiers may have to be dispensed with for th: same reason. In addition to all this the nutrition work in the schools is in danger of being dropped or seriously curtailed, according to Mr. Sprague. “While we will try and kp up the nutrition work as long as pos- sible,” said Mr. Sprague, we have not nearly enough money for that work and not a cent for anything else. “When the wall crashed at the North and Judd plant the Red Cross had some money in the treasury and we were enabled to supply coffee and sandwiches to the firemen and po- licemen and to look after familles of the victims. Today if there were a disaster here we would not have a cent for this purpose.” Mr. Sprague explains that the Red Cross usually has a balance of up to $5,000 in its treasury for emer- gencies. TLis year there is nothing in the treasury and the annual roll call has netted slightly over $1,900 when $6,000 w s asked. He says there will be »>thing for the Red Cross to do excert drop all its ac- tivities, close the Home service bu- reau, cancel plans for Christmas kits for soldiers and “Splash Week" next summer, hold onto the nutrition program until the money gives out and then quit entirely. Very little money is coming in in the drive. Women in bank lobbies | are selling few memberships and | from TFriday noon until Monday a total of $156.05 was received. The larger amounts include $5 from the employes of the Southern New England Telephone Co., $9 from the American Legion, $21 from the cmployes of the New Britain Gas| Light Co., $14 from the employes of the New Britain National bank, $18 from the South Congregational church; $23.05 from the All Saints’ church; $9 from the Stanley Me- morial church and $6.05 in gifts. The report from noon yesterday | until noon today brought into the; coffers of the organization but| $300.85 more. The Besse-Leland store came through with a 100 per cent report, | {he cmployes having turned in 45| subscriptions. The New Britain | Woodworking Co., also turned in 33, | making this concern a 100 per cent| firm. Others who have contributed | included Grant’s Ready-to-Wear | store $1, New Britain Rec- ord $21; Adkins Printing Co., $24; Connecticut Light and Power $19; Andrews, Swift and So.. $27; Walk- over Shoe store $4 and $69 by mnfl.] The latest list of contributors in- cluded the O'Neil Tire and aBttery Co., $10, the Sacred Heart church and school $15.85, ($38.65 of th‘si was from the school); H.

Motor Sales, $5. The Humphrey Manufacturing company employes have joined the 100 per cent group. This is not enough to effect the local situation whatever, according to Mr. Sprague.

Ochs Oakes, editor of Current History magazine, in an ad- dress defending the attitude of this country. After referring to the "crusade:of furious dislike” which, he declared, reached a climax last summer when everything American aboard seemed to be in disrepute, Mr. Oakes de- clared: “Qur attitude was the most unsel- fish act of a powerful natjon record- ed in history.” NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1926, DEHAND SHONDOWN ON EXICAN LAND American Citizens fo Ignore Calles’ Property Laws .Wuhlnxton. Nov. 24 (P)—Four notes published today by the state department without comment dis- close the United States and Mexico approaching a showdown on the is- sue of American property rights and the Mexican government's policy of natlonalizing oil and mineral re- sources. This phase of the troubled rela- tions between the two governments hinges chiefly on the requirement in New Mexican land laws requiring alien owners of such property to Wellesley Advances | Graduation Grade Wellesley, Mass., Nov. 24 (P — Wellesley college stiffened its re- | quirements for graduation today.

The council presumably met to name five delegates to meet a simi- lar group from the New Jersey insti- tution and to discuss ways and means to restore good feeling and sports competition after the recent athletio brush between the Crimson znd the Tiger. But when the meeting was over, | and a protracted session that fol- lowed at which Leo Daley, president and half a dozen others were in con- ference had broken up, Daley said he was sorry but nothing could be given out. He was asked if a committee to meet Princeton had been appointed, if Harvard would go through with tho peace move, or if there had been a hitch, and If there was any state- ment that could be made. The only comment he would make was that another meeting of the council had been called for Friday. Daley and Joseph Prendergast, head of the Princeton student body, met in New Haven last Saturday and agreed to appoint undergraduate “peace delegates” for a later con- ference. Harvard-Princeton peace move had recelved impetus earlier this week when the board of overseers of Harvard adopted a resolution nam- ing a committee to confer with the athletle committes and the student council to discuss the situation. Princeton severed all athletic rela- tions with Harvard following the Princeton victory at the stadium when it was told by Harvard that the.Yale football game was the only fixture on the schedule. Princeton had minated the Big Three of eastern collegiate fame. Bucharest, Rumania, Nov. 24 (P —Late accounts of the condition of King Ferdinand say he has taken a | turn for the better. Members of the royal houschold reported today, with evident satisfaction, that the king was devoloping something like an appetite and was able to digest his food more easily. The physican in attendance, says the newspaper Dimineata, are so satisfied with his condition that they have telegraphed the French sur- geon, Dr. Le Senne at Paris not to come to Bucharest. A' French radiologist, however, 18 due to arrive tomorrow and take an X-ray picture of the king.
