| Schultz Speaks of New Britain At Realtors’ State Convention; Tells of Industrial Resources Real Estate Dealer Repre-l sents Local Board atl Greenwich State Gather- ing—Points Out Advan- tages of “Hardware City of the World.” E. W. Schultz, a veteran real es- | tate and insurance man, paid tribute to New Britain at the state conven- | tion of realtors at Greenwich today. | Mr. Schultz had been selected by the New Britain Real Estate board to represent it at the meeting and to| explain to the assembled delegates| New Britain's position in the manu- | facturing world. Others from this city who attended were William G.| Dunn, Harry Hancock, Harry P. O'Connor, Frank Holmes, Willlam | Cowlishaw, Vincent Ringrose and Louis R. Raphael. | Mr. Schultz's talk was as follows: “New Britain is the hardware city of the world, where more and better builders' hardware is made than in any other city of the world. “It matters not where you may travel, whather it be through a me- ropolis of America or a hamlet in Siberia, a village in Sweden or a town in Australia, you will see a ‘made in New Britain’ product. “An industrial community of the first class of almost 70,000 people with the progressive spirit of the west, yet nestled among the hills of New England. ““A cosmopolitan city in which the down trodden of the nations of the old world have settled and becoms good Americans and by their indus- try and thrift acquired their o homes and saved for the rainy day one savings bank alone having de- posits of over 20 million dollars. “It is an inland city, handicapped by lack of water transportation, far from the sources of raw material, off the main line of a railroad, vet through the energy, the industry and the initlative of its people it has grown until now it has 35 man- | ufacturing concerns with a capitali- zation of over forty million dollars. “A moment to the wisdom and energy and foresight of its founders and the enterprise and scientific | skill of its industrial leaders of to- day. We owe a great debt to the Harts and the Stanleys and the Norths and the Talcotts, the Corbins, the Landers, the Russells and Er- wins and the Judds for what they did fn the early days. Little did those pioneers dream when they toiled to build a foundation for their humble village and home, that some day the village would become a mu- nicipality famed the world over for its products. “Go to the Empire building in New York when it is finished, the tallest building in the world and you will find Corbin locks and hinges. “Go to the new Waldorf when it is completed. You will find Russwin locks and hinges, some finished in gold, all made in New Britain. “The Stanley Works, the oldest and largest manufacturers of wrought steel hardware is located in New Britain. The Stanley Rule & Level Company, one of its subsidi- aries, produces the world famed 'Stanley Tools' and carpenters im- plements. The North & Judd Mfg. Co. has made saddlery hardware for a hundred years. Now they make hardware for automobiles also. Landers, Frary & Clark—you may have heard of the Universal brand. That factory produces some of the finest cutlery and household electri- cal appliances made anywhere in the world in immense quantities. “The Fafnir Bearing Company make the ball bearings for all the Studebaker automobiles and have begun the manufacture of ball bear- ings for freight cars. “Hart & Cooley, the Skinner Chuck, the Union Mfg.

Mayor Quigley, serving his fourth term—a progressive and aggressive public official. “When I came to New Britain from New York to live, the trees along the streets and the woods in the distance made a great impres- sion on me and they are a great as- set to any community. “New Britain is a clean city. We| are not selfish and we invite the thrifty, the industrious and the am- | bitious of other communities and | |the factories less favorably located | to come to our city and look us over | and if they will locate with us, help | [to make New Britain a bigger and | |a better city. | : | “Labor troubles are unknown. | articles, hence the business does N0t | new Britain is a good place to live | have the violent fluctuation due t0|,nq g good place to work. | change of industrial conditions. “We people of New Britain are| W.

The Italian government has razed buildings that encroached upon :t and has excavated its ancient treas- ures of temples and buildings. Oc- tober 28, anniversary of the fascist march on Rome, Mussolini will open the historic section to public view. Rare Finds Unearthed During the excavations many rare structures and pieces of sculpture were unearthed. Chiet of these was an imperial edifice, dating from the last years of the Roman empire. A bathroom of this structure, practi- cally intact, has walls covered with frescoes, statues in niches, and a mosaic floor. Nearby was a large female head in marble whose au- thorship archaeologists are seeking to determine. Also nearby was a structure with stupendous founda- “Our industrial leaders have their | homes in our city and there 1s little | possibility of their transfer to some distant city. i T must mention in passing, C.
