NEWINGTON IRATE ATMANY MISHAPS Third Pedestrian Struck by Kuto at Center Last Night (Special to the Herald) Newington, Oct. 17.—John Katz- ung of Main street was struck last evening at 7:45 o'clock by a car owned by Anthony Brodziach of 812 Stanley street, New Britain. Mr. Katzung had just left his home to visit a neighbor across the street ‘when the allegedly fast rate of speed, hit him end carried him several feet. The driver applied the brakes, causing the machine to skid to the left side of the road 66 feet before coming to a stop, according to measure- ments of Constable Arthur Olesen | who investigated the accident. Mr. Bodziach was on his way to| the Hartford hospital to visit a patient there. Mr. Katzung was picked up unconscious, placed in Brodziach's car, and taken to the Hartford hospital, where an exam- ination revealed that no bones had been broken, but he suffered cuts and bruises about the face, hands and legs. X-rays were to be taken today to ascertain whether there were any internal injuries. This was the third serious acci- dent on Main street within a dis- tance of 500 feet in which persons had been struck by cars. Residents are highly incensed over the alleged lack of interest by the town au- thorities in not having the street posted in order to curb the speed- ing of cars. Children going to school are in continual danger as there are no sidewalks in the center of“the town, it is claimed. Legion Plans Dance May-Davis-Stotzer post, American Y.egion, is making arrangements for a dance to be held at Grange hall on Monday, November 10, the eve- ning before Armistice Day. 'The post will endeavor to make this a gala event. The committee in charge consists of Robert Tracy, chairman; Lieut. James F. Simpson, and Joseph Rowland. POLICE CAR FIGURES IN TRIPLE SMASH John Boyle's Truck Damaged as Are Other Two Automobiles in Collision. ‘Automobiles driven by Arno G. Kerber, of 304 Maple street; Max Stavnezer of 80 Hartford avenue and a police car being operated by Offi- cer David Doty figured in a collision Just before 1 o'clock today about 200 feet south of Main street on Frank- lin Square. Officer David Doty was driving mnorth on Franklin Square returning from a fire on Warlock street and Stavnezer was going in the opposite direction. As the two cars were al- most. opposite each other a traffic jam caused by the traffic light at the corner of Main and Elm streets forced the officer to slow down. Kerber, who was following behind the police car, was unable to stop the truck he was driving and which was owned by the John Boyle Co. ‘As he turned out to avoid striking the police car he collided with the one driven by Stavnezer. The truck then caromed off the left rear fen- der of the former car and into the left rear fender of the police car. The Boyle Co. truck suffered a flat tire while the damage to the other two vehicles was a little more extensive. The police car was dam- aged about the rear left fender, the | stop light was broken and the left | rear bumper was bent. The Stavnez- er machine also suffered a badly GUY- CAMBRIA Vi, MICHAEL J.

DAYS OF HIGH HAT APPEAR NUMBERED (Auto Believed Chief Cause of Silk Topper's Decling Philadelphia, Oct. 17 (UP)—The “high hat,” once the proud posses- sion of every well dressed man, is slowly disappearing, the victim of the march of time and the automo- bile, according to James Rodgers, a veteran salesman in one of the lead- ing hat shops here. Rodgers, reminiscing on the “gay nineties” and the early days of the |twentieth century, gives the auto- | mobile as the chief cause for the disappearance of the “silk topper.” He says that in those days a man | would come into the store and pur- |chase a silk hat for himself and |one for his coachman but the | chauffeur now wears a cap and the | man finds a soft felt hat more serv- |fceable for fast driving in the auto- ;mobila | A slight revival in the use of the |silk hat was noticed by Rodgers | during last winter and he says that |this year the demand is even great- |er. Flowing dresses, which have be- {come so popular with the women, |are given as the reason for the in- | crease in demand, the hatter stat- |ing that he believes the men are |trying to “‘dress up” to the ladies. | 'The number of men making the |hats also has decreased from 100 | workers in the city fity years ago |until now there are only about a |dozen men doing this sort of work | here. Silkc hats, at one time made in |a number of cities, now are manu- factured in New York and Phila- delphia alone, thdse two cities sup- plying the entire country. | Rodgers does not think, however. | cven with the increase in popu- larity of the “topper” for evening |wear, that they will ever regain |their former place in the wardrobe |of the man-about-town. Many of the former purchasers have disap- peared. The coachman is mnow a thing of the past, undertakers dress like normal people, no longer wear- ing the silk hat, somber sult and long face, the uniform of their posi- [tion for so many vears, and the | “dandy” no longer promenades the streets in the afternoon. HAVE NARROW ESCAPE Mrs. John Herry and Mrs. Michael | Welsh of this city narrowly escaped serious injuries shortly before 3 o'clock this afternoon when their car overturned two or three time near the Paragon Inn, The acci- dent is reported to have taken place when the car operated by the wom- an, tried to avoid a bus and was hit by another machine. The injured women were taken to the home of John Kalinowski of Winter street. Dr. A, J. Savard examined the women and found them badly shaken up and in a high nervous state. He has them under observation.

WILLIAM H. DAY, {than doubled NEW GULTURE AIDS HUGE CELERY FARM Square Mile of Single Product Near Stockton, Gal. Stockton, Cal., Oct. 17 (P—More than a square mile of celery in a single'‘bed—approximately 21,450,000 bunches in all—and each one plant- ed by hand. That comprises what is called the world's largest individual celery {farm. This acreage, furthermore, is more by neaby tracts also controlled by J. C. Maurer and his four sons near here. If all celery plants grown by fath- er and sons were in a single row, spaced the customary six inches, it would stretch more than 7,180 miles—more than twice the distance across the contirent. In 40 years' celery experience in New York state, Maurer accumulated some ideas about how celery could be grown in California. They were rather unique and wholly theoretical, but he was eager to try them. Five years ago he succeeded fn interesting his sons in a western migration. Two abandoned careers to participate in the family venture. They started with 140 acres and added to it yearly, yet the achieve- ment is more one of innovation and method than of mere magnitude. Unlike New York, Michigan or other celery-producing areas, rains cannot be expected at planting time to keep plants in the transplanting season in the San Joaquin valley. So the Mrurers adopted a method of flooding land under inches to a foot of water. The soil is peat sediment, so trenching has to be done when the ground is so soft that horses frequently bog. After much experimentation, an average of 120 crates per acre has been achieved for the farm as a whole, with 250 crates an acre for some of the tract. Through tmproved methods of culture, blanching and packing, the California product is able to com- pete in the New York market—the world’s largest for celery—despite the long freight haul. AMERIGAN CRUISER SAILING TO BRAZIL (Continged From First Page) that in many localities the troops were encountering no resistance, Rebel troops were said in Rio De Janeiro dispatches to have aban- doned Santa Rita Do Jacutinga and retreated to Imbuziero. Many Prisoners Taken The dispatches said that many prisoners had been taken by the federals in the Juiz I'v Fora sector, which is located in the southeastern part of the state, about 50 miles southeast of Sao Joao D'El-Rey, now occupied by rebels. The Rio De Janeiro sources also said that there had been another attack on Itarare, important rail- head, on the border of Parana, in Sao Paulo, and that 300 prisoners had been taken. Two hundred of these arrived at Sao Paulo by special train, Rebels Claim Victories Montevideo, Uruguay, Oct. 17 (@ —Brazilian revolutionary quarters today claimed scattering successes for their troops. There was little information, how- ever, from the Parana-Sao Paulo frontier, where, it appears, a series of engagements are proceeding which may determine fate of the rich state of Sao Paulo. An official revolutionary com- mique said that the entire eleventh regiment of infantry, which has been operating in the state of Minas Geraes, had surrendered uncondi- tionally to rebel troops, which had kept them in a state of siege. Federal attempts to land troops along the Santa Catharina border, both to relieve pressure on the port of Florianapolis, where there is a small federal garrison, and to form the nucleus of an army to operate in the rear of the rebels defending the Parana-Sao Paulo frontier, are con- tinuing, but have proved fruitless. Gomez Repulses Force Colonel Luis Gomez, with a greatly reinforced contingent, repulsed a force which the destroyer Parana sent ashore at Imbituba, small port south of Florianapolis. This was the second time within the past few days that an attempt had been made to land troops at this point. Sixty soldiers formerly attached to federal garrisons in the state of Santa Catharina, and their com- manding officer, Captain Marjo Car- valho, surrendered to revolutionary forces commanded by Colonel Eliz- ario Pain Filho, and have been in- | corporated into thke ,revolutionary army. They surrendered two ma- chine guns and supplies. New Rebel Attack Dispatches from Rio De Janeiro said there had been a new rebel at- tack on Itarare, important railway point on the prisoners had been taken. The min- ister of justice in an official com- munique said calm prevailed in the capital and that the positions of government troops on all fronts re- | mained unchanged. At Porto Alegre, state of Rio Grande Do Sul, revolutionary an- nouncement said Captain Juarez Ta- vora, commanding troops from Per- nambuco and Parahyba, was far across the Sao Francisco river into the state of Sergipe and was moving on the capital, Aracaju. He intended to march on Bahia, after Sergipe was invested by the rebel forces. LAST DAY Tomorrow (Saturday) Our Second Anniversary Sale BEACON BOOK AND GIFT SHOP 85 WEST MAIN ST. K.

Prime bonds were generally firm, although second and third grade is- |sues of domestic corporations were mixed, but as in the previous ses- |sions this week showed no market tendency one way or the other. | There was less activity in the for- | cign group. Issues that have moved up most sharply were thinly traded but generally higher. Many Latin- American issues are now selling from 10 to 15 points above the record low levels reached in the wave of liquidation that unsettled the market last week. Bargain hunters were | attracted to the buying side follow ing the sharp reductions which | brought sharp increases in the yield on dollar issues. | New financing for the week end- | ed today showed a small increase | tover the previous six day period, | despite the holiday on Monday. Of- ferings totaled $1 8,000 com pared with $119,739,000 last week when the bulk of the financing was in one issue, the $100,000,000 | Canadian loan. The principal issue | today was one of §$20,000,000 in 5! per cent convertible debentures for | the Gillette Safety Razor Co. which | plans to retire its bank indebtedness | with the proceeds. | Bolivian 7s of 1958 advanced | sharply on good buying to reach 60, and Brazilian 6 1-2s, Chile Mortgage bank 6 1-2s, Chile 6s, and Rio de | Janeiro 8s were among Latin Amer- fcan issues that gained a point or more. Standard foreign issues were firm, but some medium grade issues | moved the other way. Poland 8s re- acted after rallying in yesterday's | session. The firming of domestic bonds has been a slow but gradual process this week. Prime bonds while not great- ly affected by the liquidation still are | selling somewhat below the best | levels of the year, and the daily | gains have been narrow. Deaths | Mrs. Wiliam P.

York, Oct. 17 (P-—The pro- the trickles of secondary liquidation wr today's stock where it was left off yesterday and share prices continued to work lower in a placid market. After such a violent selling move- ment as that of last week is checked by a technical rally, the recovery is frequently lost as hangover liquida tion is disposed of some days late 0 the action of the market was not regarded as surprising. Small Losses Numerous Losses of 1 to 5 points were numerous, but trading held close to the narrow limits of yesterday. A few shares broke into new low ground, including General Electric, United Gas Improvement, American Water Works, Union Pacific, New York Central and Colorado Fuel, the last named influenced by unfavorable carnings estimates. U. §. Steel, Du- pont and Air Reduction declined about 3 points, and North American, Eastman, Westinghous Manville, about 4 to dropped nearly 7, and Allied Chem- ical nearly 2. Utilities and Rails were particularly heavy Business news was mixed, and in the main not of a character to bol- ster stocks. The weckly federal re- serve reports were interpreted fav- orably, however, particularly the $10,000,000 increase in circulation, making a gain of more than $60,- in the past three weeks, which is accepted as a sign of in- creasing demands of trade. The de- cline of $153,000,000 in broke loans was no larger than expected, and Wall street was to sec the condition statement of member banks, to be issued next week, to learn if liquidation of bank process of mopping up in mark loans against security collateral had | again exceeded the drop in brokers' loans. Monetary conditions were practically unchanged, with loans holding officially at 2 per cent. Further Decline Buying Broke reported further ment buying of stocks on decline estimate placed institutional buying at 00,000 and $60,000- 000 in the past 10 days. Investment trusts and others, however, were in- clined to move cautiously, pending the further testing of recent price levels. ‘While the greater caution shown by the bears has been widely re- garded as a stabilizing influence, some brokers pointed out that the scarcity of stocks for loaning pur- poses seemed to be more artificial than real and the annalist prelimi- nary indices of business activity for September, adjusted for seasonal in- | fluences, were announced at new {lows for the current depression, and such exhibits tend to hold investment | buying in check, although they rep- resent water under the mill. Fresh declines in crude oil and gasoline prices, and copper produc- tion figures showing a slight in- crease in September were further in- dications of the difficulties of indus- tries troubled with over-production, although normal consumption of the copper might quickly bring that in- dustry into balance.
