Berlin News WANT HAIL BOXES 70 BODST SERVICE Resideats of Novtbern Section| Seck New Facilities BARRETT PROMISES AID Residents Anmnounce Support of Carter for Selectman—New Brit- ain Police Uneover Watery Comn- ditions Here—Other Items. Many residents .in the nerthern ipart of town have expressed a need| for the installation of ‘mail boxes’ ‘above the Farmington avenue inter- 'sectton. With tfte removal of the| \post office southerly, Berlinites who| ilive above the old site are required to walk a long distance to the pres- lent location in the town hall in or- ‘der to post mail. The local post office was losing patronage continually and that Ber- lin mail was beginning to filter into !the New Britain office instead of be- fing mailed from this town. As the ocal office is partly on a commis- slon basis, the result of this practice; :would reflect on the receipts of the 1ocal office and chances for govern- iment patronage in the possible build-} ‘ing of a new office would be re-| ‘duced. Bustness at the Worthington ridge ‘post office has been less than the) amount formerly transacted at the Jold office but it is generally believed by authorities in charge that the ‘sudden change iIn quarters combined 'with the annual mid-summer slump has been responsible. Constdering| ‘the make-shift quarters which are beginning to get straightened out, ‘activities are running as smoothly as can be expected, officials say. Pastmaster Ambrose Barrettshas said that he will install mail hoxes in the northern part of town as soon as he can locate the bests site for ithe receptacles. e requests that ‘the townspeople bear with the local ‘oftice for a short period and prom- es that the mail boxes will care for all parts of town in the near future. No complaints have been register- ed at the Kensington post office. Postmaster Sidney M. Cowles stated. Tt is generally believed that the rail- ‘road district is adequately supplied. Fast Berlin is also satisfled with fts present system, residents say. Carter Poom With the recent announcement that it was probable that First 'Selectman George B. Carter would seek reelection, considerable agita- tion for his support is afoot. Prominent republicans today ex- pressed the opinion that Carter would have no difficulty in obtaining his ninth nomination. Baseball Tonight The Berlin Juniors baseball team will meet the East Berlin Boys' club this evening according to Manager Schultz of the Worthington ridge squad. This ‘will be the postponed encounter with the down-easters which was scheduled to take place on’ Tues- day evening and which was balked |the Hardware City “bobbies” as car | disclosures of the New Britain force | at East Berlin, | by Jupiter Pluvius. With today's | sunshine, it is hoped that the game | will take place with no further niis- understandings such as have marred | the activities of the Legion league | in the past. g Police Uncover Conditions That it is sometimes necessary for | this town to bring in outside aid in the uncovering of deplorable condi- tions was made cvident last evening when the New Britain police tound unbelievable conditions existing at the Berlin underpass “pond” ves- terday afternoon as they were| traveling to Meriden to meet the | Silver City police baseball team. Kensington was nearly the host of baseball players swished through the lagoon under the railroad tradks. Water depths | at that time were estimated agthree feet by the sleuths from New Brit- ain an@ while Kensingtonians are suspicious that this might have been an exaggeration they back up the after car of in their general expressions of amazement. Whether the discovery of the water way under the bridge by the | police had any bearing on the mat- | ter or mot, workmen were at the | spot early this morning and, form- ing a bueket brigade, succeeded in lowering the water level consider- | ably. Marriage License Joseph J. Cavallo of North Haven and Miss Mary Angeline Brosso of Kensington have made application for a marriage license to Town Clerk ! Arthur L. Woodruff. | Returning to Oklahoma H T. H. Lillystand and family, who | have been summering at the Sage | residence, will leave for their home in Oklahoma tomorrow morning, making the trp by motor. Mr. Lilly- strand is engaged in the oil indus- try in that state and has received busigess news which has cut short his stay in this town. While here, the family made many friends and his premature departure is widely | regretted. ‘What's Tts Name Everett Cole, proprictor of the Cole general store of Worthington ridge, is In a quandary. Customers have noticed a preoccupied wrinkle on his braw for the past few days and this morning the secret was dis- closed. Cole has purchased a Ger- man police pup, which is one of the finest examples of the hreed ever seen in town. The dog will be used as a watchdog to prevent any re- occurrences of the recent looting of the store by burglars. Now the auestion revolves about a suitable name for the dog. Every customer is invited to make a suggestion. At present the animal is called “Rex” but that is tempor- ary title and will be changed as soon as a better cognomen is found. What They're Doing John McCahe of Kensington and Arthur Benson of East Berlin left vesterday for a fishing trip in Long Island sound. Blackfish are the quarry of the two local nimrods.

Second Selectman James Simpson today announced that he would be a candidate for the republican nom- ination as first selectman at the par- ty caucus to be held next month, a large number of people having ask- ed him to seek the nomination and promised to support him in the event that he did. Mr. Simpson has been active in local politics for a number of years. At one time he was a member of the board of relief, and he has also served as fire commissioner. For the past five years he has been sec- ond selectman, holding this position during the terms of the late William J. Johnson and of John J. Kimmel. He has been engaged in the provi- sion business here for many years. Last summer Mr. Simpson's friends urged him to seek the party ticket leadership, but he was ill for several months and did not feel that he would be able to fill the first selectman’s dutles it elected. He therefore contented himself with a renomination and reelection as sec- ond selectman. Now he has regain- ed his health and will make an at- tempt to step up to the higher of- fice. Mr. Kimmel has already announc- ed that he would accept another term if the voters wanted him, and, despite rumblings of opposition in several quarters, he is admitted to have a large following. A spirited contest is expected for the nomina- tion. Interest is also focusing on the oftice of town clerk, which will be left vacant by the retirement of Miss May Morgan. While Town Treas- urer William. H. Wilson is most prominently mentioned to succeed her, a boom has been developing for the naming of George Bartlett.

Baseball Tonight The Businessmen and Peck Spring Co. will meet on the aiamond to- night and battle to break the tie existing for first place in the Indus- trial baseball league. The teams had two rained out games left at the conclusion of the season, and the first one was drowned out again Tuesday night. With fair weather today, prospects for a great battle ‘were excellent.

MYSTERY IN DROWNING OF BOSTON REALTOR Man Disappeared From Cabin of Steamer and Was Later Seen Swimming Toward Shore Fall River, Mass., Aug. 25 (UP)— A mystery that may never be solved is the story of the death of Warren B. Thomas, Boston real estate agent. Thomas had sailed from New York on the steamer Providence of the Fall River line. When the boat arrived here Thomas was not in his stateroom. Eight hours after the Providence had docked. three boys, fishing near Howe’s farm, Bristol, R. 1., heard a cry for help and saw a man swim- ming about 300 yards off shore. They summoned Post Captain Paul Herzig, who put out in a boat. Herzig found the man but he was floating unconsciouse. He brought the body ashore and after an hour” {attempted resuscitation pronounced him dead. The dead man was fully dressed and in his pocket were papers in- dicating he was W. B. Thomas of Devonshire street, Boston. Thomas was connected with the Burwash corporation, a firm dealing in Boston and Springfield real estate. He was said to have had a residence in New York. | Believe Murder and Suicide in Shooting Bartlesville, Okla., Aug. 25 (A— R. J.

Bristol News EPORT PETITION FOR PAY INGREASE Higher Salaries for Mayor an Councilmen Proposed NO INTEREST IN PRIMARY New Departure Mfg. Co. Plant to Close—Mrs. John Kielman Suc- cimbs to Injuries—Amateur Boxing Tourney Tomorrow Night. It was rumored today that a pe- | tition sponsored by several promi- nent business men was being circu- | lated asking that a vote be taken at the coming city election to increase the salary of the mayor from $2,000 to $4,000 and of the members of the | council from $200 to $600. This peti- tion will be presented to the eity council for action at the meeting on Tuesday evening, September 6. The salary of the city’s chief offl- clal was at one time $1,200 and was increased a few years ago to the present figure. The councilmen’s salary, practi-! cally everyone in the city has will- ingly admitted, is entirely too low. The councilman ordinarily is called upon to serve on committees which take up a large amount of his time during the day, and he is obliged to attend the regular meetings which are held monthly. Mayor John F. Wade at a recent council meeting called attention to the salary pald members of the council and at that time he stated that he strongly favored making the annual stipend $500. Although several business men ad- mitted having heard the rumor in connection with the petition, none of them had as yet seen the petition. | No Primary Contests Loom With only 16 days left in which written nomination papers, stating the name and post office address of candidates for the city primary to be held on Tuesday, September 20, may be filed in the office of the city clerk, a check of the situation today showed that up to the present time no such papers had been filed. For the position of mayor, there looms only one candidate up to the present time and that is the incum- bent, John F. Wade. Willlam Hayes, a member of the city council and former postmaster, whose name was mentioned a few weeks ago, has de- clined to have his name entered in the mayoralty contest. W. Raymond Crumb, also a member of the council and a police commissioner, stated emphatically today that he was not a candidate for mayor and was uncertain whether he would seek re- election to the council. 1t is understood that Councilmen | William Hough, Charles R. An- derson, E. Merrill and William A. | Hayes will seek re-election. Council- | man Homer H. Judd a few days ago 1 I'stated that he was uncertain as to|the impact of the whether he would run this year. It is sald that Frank Dutton, who served several terms on the council and who at one time ran for mayor, will be a candidate for the council at the primaries. As in past years, it Is expected that there will be but one candi-| date for the berth of city clerk. | That will be the incumbent, Thom- as B. Steele, a republican. Two assessors are to be elected | this year. Daniel E. Heffernan, who | has served the city more than a qnuarter of a century in this capa- city, will seek re-election. A second assessor will also have to be elect- ed. Sidney M. Barnard, a democrat, who served for several terms, moved away from the city last fall and will not be a candidate for re- election. Names already suggested are those of Rolfe E. Rowe, local newspaperman, Carl V. Rosen, Junius Douglass and Brayton H. Goodwin. Nomination papers must each be signed by an elector of the city and indorsed and subscribed by at least 25 electors. At the primary election the polls will be opened at the usual voting places as follows: Town hall in the rst voting district, Firemen's hall in the second voting district, Uncas Hose house No. 2 in the third vot- ing district, and Federal Hill school in the fourth voting district, The polls will open at 11 o'clock a. m.. standard time, and close at 9 o'clock p. m., standard time.
