Our products bear a fine reputation in the trade and are in good demand. “There are several ments going through our experi- mental department which gives promise of sales in increasing vol- ume to other lines not hitherto reached. Our engineering depaft- ment also is making many plant surveys to determine new counter possibilities, and we are well equip- ped for work of this kind.

Ofticer Peter Sklerkowskl found an automobile in front of 331 Chest- nut street last night and drove it to police headquarters, as it had no markers. An investigation to deter- mine the ownership was being made today. Chief W. C. Hart of the police de- partment attended a meeting of the heads of police departments about the state, with the state highway commissioner and the commissioner of motor vehicles, at the Hotel Garde, Hartford, today. Ideas per- taining to standardizing traffic reg- ulations and other matter of impor- tance were exchanged.

These included | the communist party, the national- ists, the anti-imperialistic league, and the nationalist union. He said anti-government parties had been formed throughout the land under the name of “local government.” These partics, he said, did not hesi- tate to term themselves, “new Cuban revolutionaries." He charged their activities extend- cd to forcign countries, a reference in which some sec a connection with the activities of Jose Antonio Meila, Cuban student agitator who was as- sassinated in Mexico City recently, Had Help From Abroad “With this revolution completely organized,” Fors charged, “they had appointed notable delegations in for- eign countries for the purpose of | raising money to finance the re- volt.” It was reported police had in their possession a document ostensibly ad- dressed to President-Elect Hoover asking for intervention by the Unite States on the ground that “Cuba is unable to govern herself.” The men arrested here last night were: Dr. Alejandro Vergara Leon- ard, Francisco Vilabrie Corderos, Dr. Jose A.
