NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1930. MONROE STORE 10 CLOSE IN'2 WEEKS Chain Branch in This City to Leave Local Field Announcement was made today by William H. Long. manager of the Monroe store in the Leonard build- ing on Main street, that the estab- | lishment will close within two weeks. The Monroe Stores, Inc., will re- tain the lease on the store and may rublease it at a later date. The build- ing is owned by Louis R. Raphael. The store opened at a time when business was beginning to ease off, | and while the manager says it has not had a harder struggle than any other business of its kind, the over- head of carrying it has been such | that the owners have declded to close | it The remaining 11 stores will con- tinue to operate. The local store opened 20, 1928. Mr. Long was the first manager. He remained here for a short time and then entered the buy- ing department at headquarters in Quincy, Mass. He probably will re-| turn to the same position. The en- tire personnel of the store will re- main throughout the coming two | weeks, and there is a possibility that | several department heads may be | transferred to other stores October BYRD COMES HOME - TONATIVE BOSTON Thousands See Explorer Re- ceive Honors of State and City (P —Rear Ad- miral Richard E.
