Men's Brotherhood Speaker The annual meeting cf the Men's Drotherhood of the Swedish Luth- eran church, which will be held tonight will have as a speaker the beef hanging that it was impossible to observe the theft, but Neuman was seen leaving the plant with a bag filled with meat, and when some onc called to him he is said to have run in tha direction of. New- ington, after which he circled back again and drove away in his auto- mobile. The bag of meat he had thrown into a truck, according to he report the police received. Captain Kelly was notified of the occurrence at 3 o'clock and sus- picion was directed towards Neu- man because of the registration on the car. 3 CENT FARE WAR ON IN NEW YORY (Continued from First Page) as practiced in many American cities, as well as London and Paris, has never been suggested, however, due to the city’s imperative need ot preventing congestion in Manhat- tan. A penalty on long hauls would tend to discourage moving to the outlying sections. The courts, therefore, probably will have to decide whether a pas- senger can be carried anywhere in far-flung great New York for five cents at a reasonable profit. FRANGE WILL NOT REPUDIATE DEBTS (Continued from First Page) socialists Blum and Vincent Aurfol by saying he had destroyed their theories and invalidated thefr pre- dictions. Three-quarters of the members cheered him frequently. The premier pointed out that dur- ing the last two years the budget had been passed on time, and said it was a sign that financial order hadl been restored.
