P — A Big Year For Nationally Advertised Goods Mr. Merchant, this message is written after a careful and exhaustive study of trade con- ditions all over the country. This is going to be a big year for standard goods of rec- ognized quality because the man- ufacturers are going to make more determined efforts to push them than ever hefore. Newspaper advertising in newspapers such as this will be largely used. And it is going to be pushed with the greatest vigor, and bring the best results in the places where the local merchants are ready to co- operate. The manufacturers are willing to spend money to make a market at your doorstep, but they want you to let the people know that the goods can be had in your store, They will send the trade your way if you are willing to care for it when it comes. When such a condition exists, the live merchant should need no urging to do his share. Let us suggest that you get in touch with the, manufacturers whose lines you' carry, and let them know juet what you are prepared to do in the way of co-operative work. It will mean betler business for both of you, The Burean of Advertising, Ameriean Newspaper Publishers Association, World Building, New York, will be glad to ankwer any questions about co-operative work with dealers in newspaper advertising campaigns, Booklet on request. NORWICH BULLETIN SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1914 INSTANTLY KILLED AT PAPER MILL A Milton D. Anderson Drawn Into Machinery at American', Strawboard Co. Plant at Thamesville—Young Man Was at Work When He Probably Fell and His Clothing, Caught in Cog Wheel. At the local plant of the American Strawbord company, in Thamesvilie, Milton D, Anderson, 19 years of age, was instantly killed Friday morning shortly before 9 o'clock,when his cloth- ing was evidently caught in a cogwheel and he was thrown over the wheel and crushed between that and a heavy wooden pillar. The sleeyes of his coat were caught in the wheel so firmly that Anderson’s body _was drawn into al space of 91-2 inches between the cog- wheel and the wooden pillar. His body was found by Roy White, who imme- diately gave the alarm and with the assistance of Robert Golstein and Har- ry Hilderbrand cut the belt on the pul- ley, which was fastened to a large pul- ley, so that the lifeless body could be removed: The body was frightfully crushed about the chest and lacerated on tie lower part of the right hip, and lay Hcross the shaft. Medical assist- ance was telephoned for, and Dr. J. J. Donohue responded.. Medical Eaminer Kimball and Coroner Brown were call- ed and examined the body in the of- fice, to which it had been taken, and the latter gave Undertaker Gager per- mission to remove the body. Anderson was trying to place some nuts on one of the big pumps which lets water into one of the vats. The pump machinery was shut down while he was making the repairs. He was obliged to walk over an elevated plank over the shafting from one tank to an- other in order to fix the necessary re- pairs. The opinion of Coroner Brown is that this plank was greasy and he slipped, probably falling against the cog wheel. Supt. F. W. Briggs says that Anderson was one of the most In- telligent men of the factory and that the young man took a great interest in his work and was a careful em- ploye, much interested in his work. The father of Anderson, Allen An- derson, arrived in town about 1.45 o'clock ¥riday afternoon to make ar- rangements for his burial. His burial most likely will take place in Packer. The deceased was born in Packer, Conn., 19 years ago. He was educated in Moosup and later went to Spring- fleld to learn the machinist trade. Two Vears ago he came to Norwich to work for the Sterling Machine company. He entered the employ of the American Strawboard company about a year ago to learn to be a millwright. He leaves a father and mother, Allen Anderson and Sarah A. (Tarbox) Anderson; four sisters, Mrs. W. Asplund of New Lon- don, Mrs. Fred Harrington and Mrs. Walter Harrington of Westerly and Miss Bertha Anderson of Moosup, and one brother, Allen Anderson of Spring- field. He was one of twins, the other, Miss Mildred, died about three years ago. The accident is the first fatal one which has occurred in this congres- sional district since the new workmen's compensation law has been in effect. Dr. J. Donohue, who was first called when the man was found, is the com- pensation commissioner for this dis- trict. BANKERS ASK AMENDMENT TO INCOME TAX LAW Gives Rise to Many Complications and Much Expense. A petition asking for an amendment to the federal income tax law has been circulated among the banks of Hart- ford and has been signed by thirteen of the fifteen members of the Hart- ford clearing house association. 'Che petition refers particularly to that sec- tion concerning information at the| source and says: “The present method of collection at the source adds many | unnecessary complications to bondhold- ers and other investors: it has added enormously to the expense of banks, bankers and trust companies and the labor in investigating and making re- funds will yearly cost the government vast sums of mony, all of which can be avoided. Under a plan of informa- tion at the source, all of these com- plications and unnecessary expenses aggregating up into the hundreds of thousands of doliars annually will be eliminated and the government will be in possession of more information for the verification of the returns of in- dividuals and corporations than under the law as it now stands. “We further petition that in the event that the law is not speedily amended as above that an annual appropriation be made by congress for the reim- bursement of banks, bankers and tru companies for the extra expenses which they are subject in acting as agents for the government in the col- lection of tne income tax.” The petition originated with American Bankers' assoclation, the BACK FROM TRIP i TO CANAL ZONE | Judge Brown With His Brother and | Son Visited Panama, Judge Lucius Brown, with his broth- er, Charles H. Brown, and his son,Dan- | el L. Brown, returned Thursday even- ing from a 17 day trip to the Panama canal, which was a delightful experi- ence for all of the party For Judge Brown and his son it was their first visit to the Isthmus, but for his brot er it was the third time he has seen| the big canal work. : | Twelve days of the time, six each way, were occupied in travel between New York and Colon by steamer, with out stops anywhere, and they had fivel days on the Isthmus. in speaking of the trip Fridav night, Judge Brown referred particularly to | the wonderful work in sanitation done during the American occupation of the canal zone, and sald ther was not a mosquito or a fly to be seen. The party traveled ac the isth- mus by the raliroad, which has been relocated, and they had opportunity to stop off at points where they desired. The temperature in the daytime about 80, but at night they slept un- der blankets. The work now in progress on the canal is in the Culebra cut, which was recently partiaily fil by by an earthquake, and there is also a big un- dertaking at Balboa, where a drydock 1,000 feet long is to be bullt. 5 At the Culebra cut they saw Benj min Armstrong, formerly of this city, who is now in charge of the Y. M. C. A. building at this point. SPECIMENS OF WRITING FROM NORWCH SCHOOLS. Will Be Sent to Education Association Meeting at Richmond. School Supt. E. J.

(Special to The Bulletin.) Washington, Feb. 6.—The house com- mittee on naval affairs is of the opin- ion that some steps should be taken to- wards the erection of an armor plant at some point along the Atlantic cost As far as the committee is concerned, the secretary of the navy has won a victory in the advocacy of the con- struction of a government owned plant, and it has been decided to attach an amendment to the naval appropriation bill providing for the appointment of an_armor plant commission. The amendment has been carefully drawn, and provides that a commis. sion shall be appointed by iho secre- | tary of the navy with instructions to select the best available site for the proposed plant. This commission will probably be composed of naval officers and civilian iron and steel experts. A portion 6f the naval committee favor the appropriation of sufficlent money to allow the commission to purchase a site, but the majority are of the opin- fon that only enough to pay the ex- penses of the commission should be appropriated at this session. The com- mission will be Instructed to report to session of congress. It is understood that the amendment will provide for the erection of a plant with a capacity of from 10,000 to 20,- 000 tons of armor plate. The commis- sion will be required to report on the probable cost of the erection of the plant at various locations, the trans- portation facilities, the labor market, and the available material. It will also be asked to go into probable cost producing plate at a government fac- tory. The majority of the members of the committee are of the opinion that in reporting out the amendment they should go as far towards authorizing the construction of a plant as it is possible to, and at the same time pro- tect the government against waste of funds in carrying out the project. It is admitted that there is a year's work for a very strong commission in doing the preliminary work for the passage of the necessary legislation for the plant. The commission will be expected to visit all the suggested the plant. If will not only make an investigation on its own account, but will conduct hearings at which repre- sentatives of local interests will be asked to appear. Representative Mahan was before the naval affairs committee yesterday when his bill for the appointment of this commission was under discussion. Mr. Mahan was very optimistic con- cerning the location of the proposed plant at New London. He s of the opinion that after a thorough exam- ination by a competent commission they will agree that New London pre- sents advantages offered by no other point along the coast. In the first place the site is already owned by the gov- ernment, and must be used for naval purposes. There is plenty of deep wa- ter and the harbor is always free from locations for ice, and the transportation facilities are equalled by no other point along the Atlantic coast. Lying midway be- tween the cities of New York and Bos- ton, New London is in the very center of the greatest labor market in the world, and it is protected by the most powerful fortifications along the coast.

DRUG HABIT SUCCESSFULLY TREATED. — WOMAN SHOT DOWN BY VEILED VISITOR. Husband of Victim and a Woman Un- der Arrest. h._G.*As Mrs. Har- Newark, N. J., Fel riet Manning, 28, struck a match to- night in her parlor to light the room for a veiled ‘woman who had an- nounced herself to Mrs. Manni mother as “a friend from Philadel- phia,” she was shot down by the vis- itor, who, when the woman had col- lapsed against a couch, finished her deadly work by a shot in the back, and then fled, firing -twice at the dead woman’s mother and sister, who were rushing toward the parlor. The mys- terious woman then disappeared, and at a late hour the police had not been able to get a clew as to her igentity. The woman asked at the dodr wheth- er Mrs. Manning was at home and was invited into the parlor by Mrs. Harriet Cobb, mother of the dead woman, who then called her daughter. As the lat- ter tried to light the lamp she was shot down. Mrs. Cobb and her daughter favor the theory that Mrs. Manning's death may have been the result of jealousy, believing that the veiled woman was a friend of a man whom Mrs. Manning knew. Charles 1. Manning, 30 years old, husband of the murdered woman, was arrested late tonight at Verona, where he is a proprietor of a garage. He and his wife have not lived together for two vears. He was brought here by Newark detectives, who are anxious to question him. The police later admitted that they had also arrested a woman, whose ame they declined to give at th time, in connection with the murder. The arrest was made in or near Mont- clair, about the time they placed Man- ning under arr The woman also was brought to Newark for question- ing. ITALY OBJECTS TO IMMIGRATION BILL.

Lightning is said to have its pre- ferences among different kind of trees. Some vears ago Mr. McNab, a fellow of the Botanical Society of Edinburgh, investigated into the generally re- ceived opinion that neither the beech nor the birch is ever struck by light- ning. He collected information re- garding lightning struck trees through- out Great Britain, and found no single instance of either of these species be- ing struck. Investigation in North America gave similar resuits. He found, indeed, that in the forest re- zions ‘there a beech tree was regarded as the safest place in 2 thunder storm. The New York Edison company has perfected an apparatus for eliminat- ing the smoke and cinder nuisance at its great Waterside station, New York.
