- P~ City Rejects Claims for Damage To Property By Storm Last July Taking the stand that ghe city was not, liable*for the damage caused to buildings, gardens, lawns and the drowning of baby chicks by the heavy _rainstorm of July 6, the claims committee of the Sommon council voted last night to recom- mend that nine petitioners be given leave to withdraw. The claimants- were heard at length, all of them living on Clinton street, Burritt street, Farmington . avenude, and Troad street, and they related that the water flowed over the catch basins and into their yards, sweep- ing dirt and debris before it, flood- ing cellars in some.instances and weakening house foundations in others. Driveways were washed away and deep .gulleys dug by the force of the, water. ! Assistant City Engineer George Molleur and Inspector Fred Murphy of the public works department ex- plained™the location of the proper- ties on a map, and Mr. Molleur said the gauge on the roof of City Hall registered 1.8 . inches of rain in something less than one hour on the day in question. He said the ftorm water sewer in the vicinity of the damaged property was large enough ta,care for ordinary storms, and it would be impractical to construct sewers of sufficient size to carry off water falling as hard as it did on July 6. By installing curbs and pavement ont Albany avenue and Clinton street, the situation would be | relieved, he pointed out, because the | water would then flow more readily | into the catch basins and there | would be less possibility of washing dirt from the surface of the road into the mouth of the basins, block* ing them and forcing the water to | pour across the sidewalks and into the yards. The claimants were the following: Joseph Kowalczyk, asking $100 for | damage at 246 Brritt street; Antoni | Lozinski, represented by his wife, | claiming $25 for damage at 236 Bur- | ritt street; Stanislaw Jablonski, | claiming $50 for damage at 367 | Broad street; Mrs. Rose Ruczezyk. claiming $65 for damage at Broad Kaminsky, claiming $1,500 for dam- age at 1 Farmington avenue: Gale liaus Lazzerini, claiming $4,000 for damageé at 26 Clinton street: Wil- liam Kowalszik, claiming $2,000 for damage at 36 Clinton street; Peter Bardeck and M. Zajdel, claiming $30 for damage at 365 Broad atreet; Luigi Fabale, claiming 390_for dam- age at 242 Burritt street. The claims totalled $7,860. The claims committee filed the fol- | lowing recommendations with, the city cldrk today for action at the council meeting next week: Claim of Joseph Wratschko of 30 Norden | street for $93.75 for damage to au- tomobile by reason of alleged defect in highway on Linwood street; full | amount allowed: Mrs. Nellie Kar- lon of 98 Willow street, leave to withdraw claim for compensation for injuries sustained in fall on al- leged slippery sidewalk at 623 Main street. | | | PEACENARER SHOT INLIQUOR QUARREL Grant Powers Slain-By Random | Bullet in Apartment Philadelphia, Sept. 11 (P—His at- tempt to gct as peacemaker in what police term a “bottleggers’ quarrel,” resulted in the fatal shooting vester- day of Grant Powers, member of a well known Philadelphia family. The slain man was 37 years old, & war veteran and the son of the late Thorpas J. Powers, former cor- oner angd at one time banking com- missioner of Pennsylvania. He was not involved in bootlegging or any similar racket, police raid. Shot At Apartment. Powers was shot in the third floor apartment of John Cannon, an. alleged liquor seller, for whom po- lice are searching. They arrested Samuel Kay, alleged bootlegger, with whom Cannon had quarreled and Roger Loney, who shares Kay's apartment, as material witnesses. Kay's wife and Ella Connelly, who were fornd in Kay's apartment soon after tho chooting, were also held for questioning.

No special equipment is necessary and pure cane sugar and fruit are so low in price that a large quantity can be purchased without upsetting the weekly food budget. ‘When winter comes; the value of a cupboard well stocked with jellies, jams and preserves will be most apparent. Every glass or jar that you select for your table will be already paid for. What is more, you have a' délicious home-made product that wins the praise of everybody. Canned fruit belongs in tiu bal- anced diet. Most of them are rich in vitamins and decidedly appro- priate for children. Menu-planning, especially the dessert problem, is simplified when there are plenty of preserves within reach. A bit of sweet makes the meal complete. The Sugar Institute.

Their Appointment As Franchised Dealers For HE new line of Majestic Receivers very closely approaches the - ultimate possible in ease of tuning and perfection of reproduc- tion. The Super-Screen Grid Chassis used in Models 130; 131, 132 and 233 and which includes 3 stages of screen grid tube radio fre- quency amplification, screen grid power detection and a push-pull stage of audio frequency amplification, is tuned with but a single Lnob, there bheing no “compensators” or “trimmers” requiring secondary adjustments. The new Super-Colotura Speaker handles the entire musical range without favoritism and with a fidelity to the Colorful Tong of the original reproduction at one time thought impossible. There are five tuned circuits giving a degree of selec- tivity beyond anything previously attained in the Radio art. To transfer from radio to phonograph in Model 233, all that is ne- cessary is the turn of a knob which instantly switches all the cir- cuits so that the electric pick-up which makes contact with rec- ords passes its impulses through 3 tubes of the chassis, and repro- duction is through the Super-Colotura Speaker. Volume is varied by the same knob as that which handles the volume when using the machine as a Radio.
