EMPEROR'S BROTHER WILL WED COMMONER (Continued trom First Page.) on the engagement of his daughter, Sctsu, to Prince Chichibu, Miss Matsudaira, who is 17 years old, is well known to Washington society though she has not been for- mally presented in a debut. She has moved about freely in the sub-deb strata of social life and on many oc- casions accompanied her mother to official functions. Like her mother, Miss Matsudaira is a poctess. She is considered ac- complished at writing poetry in the Japanese language and during her three years' stay here has added much to her mastery of the English language. The romance is thought te have had its inception in December & vear ago when Erince Chichibu spent several days in Washington. During his stay, which was marked by & private audience with President Coolidge, the prince lived at the home of Ambassador Matsudaira on ing country with a breok running through it, an old mill site, an fce pond and rolling fields, The third parcel lies east of Stan. ley Quarter, Hartford road. This part of the farm is in genersl a flat plateau, very well adapted for pub- ! lic golf links. It has been under| cultlvation for farm crops and is thought by golf experts to be the most available undeveloped golf course prospect in the city of New Britain. Several years ago, Mr. 8tan- ley had the whole land studied by {80l architects with a view to "its| use for golf purposes and they were all enthusidgstic about its availability for golf links. Historical Interest It 18 of more than usual historical interest to learn that this farm came into the hands of Mr, Stanley’s fam. ily in colonial days. John Stanley was onc of the original proprietors of the town of Farmington and te him was allotted, as was customary in thosc daye, a section of land, soon after its purchase from the Indians. New Britain at that time was a part of the townof Farmingten, and we find in the Farmington land records, the original deed to John Stanley, an one of the original proprietors in 164¢. In King Philip’s war he was a lleutenant and a captain, from which he obtained the appellation by which he was most commonly known, of “Capt. John Btanley,” and as a reward for his services, recelv- ed a grant of 120 acrea of land from the general court in 1674 and anoth- er in 1687. This was the beginning of the Stanley land holdings in what is now New Britain. Of no less interest, it is noted that another by the name of Btanley, & direct descendant of Capt. John, was occupying this land at the time of the Revolutionary war, and im- mediately devoted all of his efforts |to the cause of the' colonists. This was Col, Gad Stanley, who was one nor interfered with Mr. Stanley's generous plan of perpet- uat the Stanley name, in the park system of his native city. ' The proposal as it now atands contains the exchange of letters be- tween Mr. Stanley and friends in New Britain. He is ready to execute and deliver deeds of all this prop- erty to the city of New Britain when- ever the city has assented to the conditions which friends have pro- posed to safeguard his own intere: The corporation counsel has drafted deeds in aecordance with these let- ters and they are ready to submit to the common councll for considera- tion and acceptance.

Appeal —— Changes in the schedule of the New York, New Haven and Hartford llroad affecting the New Britain- Berlin branch have been made in compliance of efforts of Ralph H. Benson, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, according to a letter received by Mr, Benson from rallroad officials. The changes which take effect at once were made following Mr. Ben- son's protest against inconveniences caused by the previous schedule, ., Train No. 1914, which formerly left New Britain at 9:43 a. m,, ar- riving in Berlin at 9:50 a. m,. one minute toe late to connect with the train golng north which leaves Ber- Iin st 49, has been changed to leave here at 9:40, arriving in Berlin at 04, .

(Continued from First Page) stallation of sprinklers in this city. The Commercial Co. was given the opportunity of conducting an inves- tigation and to bring in a similar report which would be acted upon at the same time In a statement to the Herald to- day Mr. Day declared that it was not his contention that the city should cancel insurance on all school build- ings, but that only the re-resistive buildings be excluded. Answers Critics He has heard considerable discus- sion relative to the fact that since a #chool in this city was visited by a fire, his fight for cancellation of in- surance is a hopeless one. He argues that he was not anxious to put the city in any danger, but he believes | it unnecessary to place insurance on building which are fireproof. Ac- cording to Mr. Day the Isracl Put- nam school is not among the build- ings which he believed to be of fire- resiative structure. His statement follows: “There has been some adverse comment on the street and in the papers relative to | tion act broadly in erder to effectu- jate its purpose.” {FRENCH WORLB PEACE NOTE RATHER DUBIOUS (Continued from First Page) be an impressive example to all the nations of the world and might very well lead them to subscribe in theje turn to the same pact, thus bringing |into effect as among all the nations of the world an arrangement which at first was only suggésted as be- tween France and'the United h Acting on thix principle the sald that France would be wilitig to conclude a treaty which “would condemn war, would contain a deg- laration to renounce it as an instry- ment of national policy and would substitute therefore the pacific set. | tlement of disputes between nations.” France, the note continued, ap- proved Secretary Kellogg's sugges- the effect the [tion that upon the basis outlined im burning of the Israel Putnam school 'Mr, Kellogg's note to December 28. would have on my cfforts to save |conversations be opened with other money for the taxpayers by reducing |nations with & view to leading to the amount pand for insurance pre- an anti-war treaty which could be miums. “I would like to take this oppor- tunity to make my position clear, Two Plans Explained *“Two suggestions were made to the school committee which are now being considered by the special sub- committee to whom the matter was'| referred. The first was to cancel the policies on fire-resistive structures, and continuing to carry insurance on combustible buildings. By putting the¢ money thus saved into a sinking fund, within 15 years there would be sufficlent money on deposit to provide income to pay the premiums on the insurance on the cambustible bulldings. A supplementary sugges- tion was that as the fund was grad- ually bullt up some of the policies might be cancelled and by the ad- ditional saving the fund would be accumulated more quickly, None-of the insurance on the combustible buildings was to be cancelled, how- ever, before the fund was sufficient- ly large to cover the cost of the largest building which we have in |approprittely signed | by the major nations of the werld. ¥ The French note, howewer, stipw- lated In this connection that Franoe 1s disposed to propess jolntly with the United States such a treaty to all nations of the world provided that under ita terms “the Righ con- tracting parties.shall resounce all war of aggression and shall declare that' for the settiement of differ ences of whatever nature which may arise between, them they will employ all pacific means.* No explanation was centained | the note of the reasens prompted the Fremch gevernment |to restrict the effect of the anti-war covenant to wara of aggression. “The government of the republie is convinced that the principles thus proclaimed cannot but be recelved with gratitude by the entire world," the note concluded, “and it dow not doubt that the efferts of the two governments to insure univer. sal adoption will be erowned with full succesa.” at the time that he might at some ifuture day turn it over to his na- tive city as a single farm, for the use of the public. claim that the defendant contracted to erect a three story house for them and that he falled to finish the roof {of the structure and refused to do 80, in spite of the fact that the time Nimit set for the completion of the our school system.

Th2 conditions which he imposes upon his gift have been suggested and approved by these friends, and by various other pegple interested In the park system. It has seemed to all, with the imyme- diate expense necessary to fully develop Willow Brook and the pres. ent Btanley Quarter park, it is not either necessary or desirable to fm- mediately occupy the proposed park which will undoubtedly be called “Stanley Park.” Further- more, Mr. Stantey and his wife de- sire to retain their lcgal residence in New Britain, and the proposal, therefore, is that Mr. Stanley con- | vey the property to she city at this time, and retain the occupation of it during his pleasure, and If he so -~-l sires, during his life, and the life of Lis wife.
