Mayor Gardner C. Weld and ex- Mayor Angelo M. Paonessa locked horns today over the problem of sewage disposal. The latter issued a statement to the press yesterday in which he supported ex-Mayor George A. Quigley, who opposed experiment- ul expenditures by the city of New Britgin. “I consider Mr. Paonessa’s statement in last evening’s papers the opening gun in a campalgn for the mayoralty,” Mayor Weld told re- porters today. The statement by Mayor Weld was made upon his arrival in his office this morning when he was questioned by newspaper men. The mayor ad- mitted that the former mayor, his predecessor in office, had held a con- ference with him on the day of his inauguration, but that he wanted to find out for himself what the sewage situation was, “I believe the city will know \about this matter before any action is taken, but anyone acquainted with the city’s finances will know that rothing can be done at the present time or for the next year,” the mayor declared. *Just because $2,000,000 was ap- propriated is no indication that the entire amount will be spent,” he add- ed. When informed that Mavor Weld had said he considered his statement as the opening gun in a campaign for the mayoralty, ex-Mayor Paones- sa made the following statement to- day: (Continued on Page 15.)

The question became acute when the time the American club an- nounced it had arranged a banquet in honor of the visiting mayor at the Kaiserhof hotel tonight. The authorities declared a boycott as concerns official functions, against this establishment and others which consistently fail to fly the republi- jcan colors. The burgomaster, Gus- {tave Boess, announced his intention to remain away from the function. “I am not concerned with the jnumber or assortment of their flags,” Mayor Walker said, “I want to see Berlin,” was the only com- jment he had to offer. “I'd rather don a slouch hat and hike around the town to seec things for * myself,” he interjected when shown the formal itinerary for his visit.

The burgomaster is a typical German official, with bulky frame and serious attitude. Nevertheless they were soon chat- ting and chaffing ggimatedly, in a strange rixture of English and German.

Dam- ages of $10,000 are also sought in the action, and in a separate action an appeal is taken by Neubauer Mrom the finding of the board of ad- Justment of this city when the plain- tiff's appeal from the action of the | building inspector in granting a per- mit for erection of a shed to house the apparatus was denied and dis- missed.

Fred Winkle served the papers this afternoon. Neubauer sets forth in his appli- cation for an injunction that Kot- kin's junk yard permits an accumu- lation of junk and filth and the in- stallation of the shearing machine added to the noise of trucks about the caused offensive noises and con- tributes to the discomfiture of the plaintiff. Tenaits in the plaintift’s house have co.iplained and have moved and threatened to move, it alleged, and the effect of the alleged nuisance is to render the house unfit for human habitation. Because the superior court Is not in session at the present time, At- ing to the zoning ordinances, an ap- peal from the decision of the board of adjustment has a deterrent effect and the operation of the alleged of- fensive apparatus must cease pend- ing a hearing in superlor court on the appeal, according to Attorney Greensteln. A few months ago, the board of adjustment was appealed to by Neu- bauer and the other property own- ers, but because the junk yard was in operation prior to the enactment of the zoning ordinances, the board refused to grant the petition.

Charles A. Lindbergh's home town is his host today for the first time since he hopped across the At« lantic to France. He llved here from the time he was two years old until he was twenty, and the home folks were ready with the welcome only home folks can give. Besides former neighbors and friends, there were a host of inani- mate things Col. Lindbergh has been wanting to see. Mainly, there was the old “place”—100 acres of farm land and a 10-room house on it. It is the house in which Colonel Lindbergh spent his youth. Relic hunters had sought it out long since, and it wears the scars they inflicted. Years, too, have left their marks, for the house was built in 1904 by the late Congressman Charles Lindbergh, the fiyer's father, Though it was a congressman’s home, it was just a farmhouse until the boy who once played about on its floors achicved great fame, Over= night it became a place of historic significance. Col. Lindbergh and Mrs. Evange« line Lindbergh, his mother, are ex- pected to confer while here with N. N.
