WE ARE HEADQUARTERS FOII‘ |82 State St. Hartford “Under Grants” | Static was extremely heavy last evening, a balance being created by |tory. Of course, we couldn't tune in | anything we wanted to, the noise ef- fectively preventing any too-ambi- | tious efforts on our part. The static | was real, business-like interference | and it crashed around our place like the well known ton of coal and the coal chute, to employ the familiar | |simile. We don’t know whether or {not there was any fading; we were oo busy trying to hang on to the stations we brought fin. s e The Voters' Service program over | WTIC was exeremely interesting. Senator Bob Lal'ollette of Wiscon- | sin and William Green, president of | the American Federation of Labor, \ were the speakers. LaFolette spoiled the early part of his talk by speak- |ing so rapidly and in such a high, monotonous tone of voice that a great deal of what he said was lost. He gave a regular stump speech. He took his time after a while and | | started to put more expression into | | his voice. And then we sat up and | took notice. He called attention to several phases of the coming cam- | pajgn, pulling the present admin-| istration over the coals in several in- stances, The talk was our idea of a red-hot speech and he wound up by Lringing the name of a Nebraska senator into the limelight. Green de- {livared an excellent talk regarding | the status of the federation in pres- | idential campaigns. He said the fed- eration is always on the side of the people and he described the part played by that organization in cam- | paigns. He proved to be a slow, pre- cise speaker with a pleasing voice | and a keen understanding of the situation evidenced by his re- marks. For those who want to know what's going on in Washington and in politics all over the country, we heartily recommend the Voters' service each Tuesday evening. Rep- | resentatives of the many branches of the federal government are heard and the many valuable viewpoints are aired. It's great stuff. PR WNAC, Boston, for some unex- plained reason, came through loud and clear during the early part of | evening. Regarding later hours we | don’t know, since we left the broad- ! caster to work out his own salvation. But while we were listening, things | were 0. K. “When the Moon Comes | Peeping Through’ was played as a Ednnce number, o e e | An orchestra out at WLW, Cin- |cinnati, played “After Dawn” and 1 “Dancing Shadows.” If the members of the group had known how much | trouble the radio impulses had in | getting through to New England, | they would have quit on the spot. In | other words, there was quite a bit ! of noise, as we have mentioned be- | fore, it we're not mistaken, Wwhich jwe hope we're not, and we usually | are. That's a habit of ours. { P | “Main Street Sketches” from | | WOR, Newark, was a scream. And | | when we say ‘scream” we mean we | laughed. We chuckled, we howled, | we roared. Seldom has a program |struck us so funny. It was one of | |the cleverest dramatizations we have heard in a long time. It was a com- | edy-drama and concerned a new | | radio set in the village store. The| | trouble the operator had Wwith the set was certainly true to life. He| |brought in England, Havana and other stations, the music of which could be heard, and then’he brought in two stations at one time. From | |one of them setting up exercises | | were being broadcast and from the | other a woman was giving out cook- |ing recipes. The entire village gath- !ered around to hear the set and 'some of the remarks were side- ! | splitting. Finally the battery started | |to go down and the villager decided {to put on the charger, with the re- |sult that he blew out all the tubes in the set and all the lights in the village. That ended the radio ses- | sion for that group. Next week | “Main Street Sketches” will concern a village social in the basement of the church. It should be good for | plenty of laughs. | » i | . e Vernon Dalhart, presenting his incomparable southern mountaineer songs, sang from WEAF last eve- | ning, accompanied by a fiddler, sweet potato and harmonica, or | some such rustic combination which added a great deal to the songs themselves.

J, Feb. 15 M — A verdict of $8,000,000, one largest ever awarded an individual. was on record .in federal court m-’ day against the estate of the late | James B. Duke, tobacco magnate. ‘The damages were awarded | George D. Haskell, Springfield, Mass., manufacturer, who charged Duke with entering into an ar- rangement with him for the exploi- tation of great aluminum properties | 'and then selling out to the Alumi- | num Company of America. Haskell had asked $45,000,000 damages. Mr. Duke's 14 year old daughter, Doris, to whom he left the bulk of his $53,000,000 estate on his death, | 1925, would be tne| chief sufferer from the verdict. Testimony was introduced to !show Mr. Duke had profited to the extent of $25,000,000 by joining his interests with those of the Alumi- num company. Mr. Haskell claimed | $15,000,000 actual damages but sued for $45,000,000 under the section of the Sherman act which allows triple damages to a man injured by a conspiracy in restraint of trade. Homer 8. Cummings, former chair- man of the democratic national committee, who represented Mr. Haskell, said he would appear in court later in the week and ask that the verdict be multiplied by three to give his client $24,000,000. For many years Mr. Haskell had | been making a survey in this coun- try and Canada to locate bauxite, ! or aluminum deposits, it was brought out at the trial. Tn 1924 he had made tentative arrange- | ments with financiers for exploiting | deposits which he had made. He decided, however, he could hest start operations with water power controlled by Mr. {along the Saguenay river in Quebec. He testified at the trial that he had entered into an agreement with Mr. Duke for the use of this power. Before operations started, Mr. Has- kell sald, the Aluminum company entered into negotiations with Mr. | Duke and the tobacco magnate went over to that company, taking with him not only his water power tion it was alleged Duke received ian amount of stock equal to a one-month interest in the Aluminum company and worth $25,000,000. During the progress of the suit, which started December 8, experts from many foreign countries were called on to testify. The jury required six hours to| reach its verdict. A leap year is skipped, in order | to keep the calendar straight, at the | close of each century when the year | is not divisible by 400. | READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS | Oroggisks of the | Duke | intormation relat- | |ing to the bauxite deposits which | {Haskell had located.

Me- Elhone, district manager of the Connecticut Light and Power Co. at the weekly meeting of the Ex: |change club held last evening at the »Burrln hotel. The speaker was in- | troduced by Cyril Gaftney, who told |of Mr. McElhone's experience be- {fore coming to New Britain three vears ago. The speaker's address in ‘part is as follows: “The Connecticut- Light and Power Co. is governed by the pub- \lic utilities commission. This means that company is governed by the publh: itself which is told of every move made by the company. The utilities commission sets the prices {and passes on all other detailscon- |cerning the company such as set- ting up new line, ete. “The purpose of the company is manyfold and can be stated in four ways: First, to give good service; | second, to give service to all who | want it; third, to show no discrimi- nation, and lastly, to charge fair |and reasonable prices, | “The company has lines all over town. The main sub-station is lo- |cated at Black Rock avenue. Power | for Plainville is provided from this | station. Light for the center of the jcity comes from a station on Church street. Lines running along Park and Stanley streets furnish | the power for Berlin. There are five lines running to the station at | Black Rock avenue. Two lines come from the Waterbury, two from | Hartford and one from Farmington. | In case of a severe storm, the city will never be without lights. It one line goes out of order, the company | immediately falls back to one of the | five other lines. “The company also looks forward | to the growth of the city and plans its work 15 years in advance. Study is made of the average growth of Uho city in every five years, and the company builds new lines and | establishes and {installs new equip- ment nearly 15 years before they | are needed. Previous experience of the company gives it an accurate idea of the amount of power that | will be needed within the mext 15 vears and plans are lald according- Iy .
