S CHARTER CHANGES SMITH ADVOCATES Proposss Addifions o Slate Dralted by Gty Committee Declaring that the charter re- vision committee has proposed noth- ing that is benefit to the city of New Britain, Henry A. 8mith of ¢4 South High street, for a time can- didate for the republican mayoralty nomination last spring, has written Senator Ernest W. Christ proposing a new slate of amendments to the city charter. A He includes the recommendations bearing' upon city audits, monthly deposits by the tax collector with the city treasurer, and fixing of sal- aries by the common council, which are a part of the revision commit- tee's report, s ‘Would Abolish Council Mr. Smith suggests that the com- mon council be abolished and that a board of aldermen, to consist of 15 members, be created, member- ship to be apportioned on.the pres- ent voting list, as follows: First ward, 3,869 voters, three aldermen; Second ward, 2,738 voters, two aldermen; Third ward, 3,953 voters, three aldermen; Fourth ward, 2,348 voters, two aldermen; Fifth ward, 3,392 voters, two aldermen; B8ixth ward, 4,546 voters, three aldermen. He suggests that this system be put in effect in April, 1930 and that the aldermen serve for two years. Under the 8mith plan, the board of aldermen would elect a president to serve for a period of two years, and each member would receive a salary of $300 a year. The president of the board would act as mayor in the absence of the mayor, ..nd would preside at meet- ings to be held semi-monthly, ex- cepting during the months of July, August and September, when they would meet ounce a month, One Man Commissions One-man commissions for police, fire, bullding and public works de- partments are urged, with the pro- vision that each of these commis- sioners would have a deputy to eerve in his absence, and each would be provided with a secretary. A city auditor to be elected by the public for terms of two years is pro- posed, this official to be charged with the auditing of all accounts and records. The action of the ordinance com- mittee in refusing the fire board's re- quest that the position of assistant master mechanic be created, does not meet Mr. Smith's approval, and he asks that the office be created by the legislature, as “absolutely necessary.” ‘With reference to police and fire department pensions, he approves the present system of retiring on half pay, those incapacitated while in the performance of duty. Men of either departments killed in duty will entitle their widows to half pay during life, and if they are single, the same compensation i to be paid their mothers, provided they are de- pendent widows, Weekly Removal of Ashes Removal of ashes and rubbish weekly, by a department of street cleaning, which is to include this duty with the task of keeping the highways clean, is suggested. This department would be under the di- rection of a superintendent of street cleaning. With reference to purchases, he asks that bids be advertised for whenever the amount is in excess of | 8250, and that a bond be required of the successful bidder to guarantee execution of the agreement. Increase in the personnel of the police department to make possible a three-platoon system, creation of This New Jersey Man Gained 28 Pounds One Atlantic City man who need- ed 28 more pounds took McCoy's Tablets for 8 weeks and gained the flesh he wanted. One thin woman gained 15 pounds in five weeks thanks to McCoy's and a young woman from Alabama writes that her weight jumped from 109 to 125 after taking only three goxes of Mc- Coy's. McCoy takes all the risk—Renad this ironclad guarantee. If after tak- ing 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn’t gain at least 5 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health— your money will be returned. Just ask for McCoy's Tablets at Fair Drug Dept. or any drug store in America. Aveid Too Much Dosing For Flu Saylhysicans Its Toxins Upset Stomach and Constant Dosing Fur- ther Disturbs Digestion. According to health authoritics, a peculiarity of influenza is that its toxins upset the digestive sys- tem, especially in the case of children.

Favors Public Atrport Mr. Smith would include in the i charter a provision that a munici- | pal airport be established without further delay. . In his letter to Senator Christ, Mr. Smith expressed regret at the absence of combined efforts on the part of republicans to keep their party in power and work for the| good of the voters. In part, he| writes: “The governor of Connecticut is a republican. The legislature of the state is republican in both branches. The senator and two members of the legislature from New Britain are re- publicans and have been, to my knowledge, for the past five years conditions closely and yet I have failed to see anything done so far that has brought any benefit to Now Britain, Three out of four elections | the democratic party has elected its mayor and the last mayor elected by ! the republican party was by the! amall majority of 215 votes.” GREAT BRITAIN'S AIR FORGE LARGE Olicers and M Washington, Jan, 30 (®—The naval man power of the nations in the Washington arms conference ‘was considered by the house appro- priations committee in allocating money for the :xpenses of the navy in the annual supply bill.

Warner, assistant sec- retary of the navy in charge of aeronautics, told a house appropria- tions navy subcommittee in testi- the nmavy would need at least 8§00 commiasioned fliers four years ihence, it now has only 469, one fewer than it had two years ago. “1 cannot. feel any confidence in the prospect of securing from the regular ranks of graduates of the naval academy in the regular way enough aviation material to meet our expanding need for aviators over the next six or eight years,” he said. Warner sald that 50 reserve offl- cers were on active duty at the present fime and it was planned to use 70 during the coming year. In addition to the 469 officer pilota. Warner said, there are almost 300 enlisted pilots. Captain Erncst J. King, assistant chief of the bureau of aeronautics, outlined a new system of gaining enlisted pilots which has been the Pensacola training station. Under this plan, King said, re- Cruits entering the service would undergo an aviation physical ex- amination after which they would be sent to Hampton Roads or San Diego for a flight elimination trial, Upon passage of this examination they would go to the Great Lakes to attend the mechanics school for 10 .weeks. At the end of that time they would be assigned either to the Lexington or the Saratoga for six months after which they would be sent to Pensacola for further train- WARINE FLVERS SET HGH HARK Standard in Nicaragua Never Equalled in History ‘Washington, Jan. 30 (PM—Marine corps fliers in Nicaragua set a standard that has never before been equalled by any other’ organigation in the world, Major E. H. Brainard, of the marine corps told a house navy appropriation sub-committee in testimony made public today in the house. Since November 21, 1927, Brain- ard said, the squadrons in Nicara- gua have flown 9,000 hours in a few more than 5,700 flights. They have transported 8,000 passengers, he added, and cairied more than 1,752,457 pounds of freight. In addition, he added, the marine corps airmen have made 84 con- tacts with hostile forces, with only the loss of one pilot and an ob- server. Much of this flying, Major Brain- ard said, was made in mountainous and wooded country where flying conditions were not generally favor- able, The mission, he said, “has been to furnish the brigade with observa- tion service, and with passenger and freight service, as well as to carry out independent air operations against the enemy.” In China, Major Brainard added, the marine corps planes stayed aloft 2,454 hours during the year with a total of 3,818 flights and without a fatal accident, although the planes were hit seven times by hostile fire. 0il F‘igilters Sniping Into Opponent’s Camp fight for control of the Standard O company of Indiana has passed the mobilization and reached the attri- into the other’s camp.

The communication states that in the last serious fire, the nearest fire apparatus, No. 4, never reached the blaze and it was neces- sary for someone to send for No. 1. It is pointed out by those who are interested that considerable damage would be done by a fire with any kind of a start in Barnesdale before No. ¢ company. the ncarest appara- tus could get there. This company would have to go over Burritt street for considerable distance, a road which never is in very good condi- tion, pass two railroad crossings and several sharp turns, then go west on ‘Wooster street, usually in an almost impassable condition, a distance of fully two miles a large portion of the route being over bad roads.

PLAN SAFE SUBS INU.S. FLEET Experiments Being Condacted to Do Away With Accidents Washington, Jan. 30 U — The navy plans to make its four score submarines safe. Extensive experiments are being carried on with numerous devices which are expected to result in the avoidance of all accidents other than these which might happen to or- | dinary surface vessels, This was told to the house appro- priation committee by Rear Admiral J.

At the same time, Secretary Wil- bur told the committee the fact that the B-4 recently was raised in a comparatively short time after be- ing purposely sunk, should not be taken by the public to mean that such salvage operation could be re- peated in an emergency. Rear Admiral Beuret said that since the collision was the greatest danger to undersea craft because of their operations, running lights and their small reserve buoyancy, tests were being made toward correcting these deficiencies as much as pos- sible in addition to devising means of raising sunken vessels. submarine lifting pontoons, are be- operate with the various submarine fleets, Beuret said.
