The matter is in the hands of Judge Bernard I'. Gaffney who, in his official capacity of town counsel, is drawing up a quit claim deed to meet the critical eye of the town which has already refused one re- lease submitted by Jordon & Selick, owners of the Treasure Y¥ields pro- perty about a month ago. At the time of the return of the deed to the Bridgeport concern, it was pointed out by the town fathers that cer- tain boundaries mentioned on the deed were not sufficiently identi- fied to prevent misunderstauding. Jordon & Sellick then gave the mat- ter to the town to dispose of, stating that any quit claim deed regarding the property in question would be signed by them if drawn up in the proper form by the'town itself. The firm also had some pithy statements regarding the whole transaction, stating that other towns and cities had accepted the regular form of quit claim deed submitted and that no question had been raised regard- ing boundaries. The Treasure Fields problem has dragged on for a considerable length of time and the near approach of the laying of the new highway has not eased the minds of the residents of that section. voters of the dis- trict claiming that unless rapid ac- tion is indulged in, the new con- crete thoroughfare will block any proposed extension for some time. Hints that deliberate delay is caus- ing the postponement of the accept- ance are numerous among Treasure Fields citizens and a general feeling of discontent regarding the move is widespread. Conrad Zisk of Boston, who has acted as counsel for the district since the Inauguration of the: move for ac- ceptance last fall, is anxious that action take place to prevent the highway blocking the much-needed extension of sewage and water fa- cilities, He has made several visits to the section in question in an ef- fort to speed up legal steps but re- ports that a feeling of reluctance in taking the necessary steps scems prevalent among local officials. It is probable that the quit claim deed will be completed within the next week, local officials state, and will be submitted to the Bridgeport owners immediately upon comple- tion. the Lawn Fete The Woman's Home Missionary socicty of the Berlin Congregational church will hold a lawn fete on Fri- day afternoon, July 29, at 2 o'clock on the grounds of the Worthington Community House. ‘Worthington ridge.

In one of the stormiest sessions of the congress the doctrine was char- acterized yesterday as an instrument of American “imperialism” by Ri- cardo A. Martincz, delegate from Veneczuela. But President William A. Green, of the American Federa- tion of Labor and chairman of the American delegation, roundly de- fended the doctrine, declaring it to be “the fixed and unalterable poli of the United States.” The attack by Martinez was coup- led with a general censure on the! Latin-American policies of the Unit- | ¢ States while the Venezuelan was | advocating support of a resolution | wanted the congress to adopt harshly eriticizing the doctrine. A substitute resolution on the doc- | trine had been introduced by Mat- thew Woll, an American delegate and was later adopted, but during its discussion Martinez had declarcd he had not approved the substitute. | Woll said Martinez licd in denying his approval. The substitute resclution disagreed with the contention that the Monroe | doctrine “proclaims that the person and property of a citizen of the United States are a part of the gen- cral domain of the United States as | a nation, even when abroad “the original resolution by Martinez had { characterized the doctrine to be the instrument, never concurred in by {Latin-America, for United States impe ism." In his defense of the doctrine, Mr. Green declared “it is unanimously approved and accepted by the prople of the United States and helieving in America for Americans, it will never be changed.” Mr. Green rebuked the Latin- American delegates for denouncing doctrine, declaring that “It ms to me that representatives of every weak nation in South and Central America should say we want the American government to stand ir- revocably for the principle.”” Delegates from Peru, Guatemala, Panama and Cuba differed with the views expressed by Martinez, but the Nicaraguan delegate, Salomon De Ta Selva, who has sought action by the congress opposing intervention by America in his country, supported the Veneczuelan.
