COUNTY AGENT SELECTED F. C. Warner of Sunderland, Mass., Engaged for Year by New London County Improvement League—Will Take the Position May 1st, Succeeding Murray D. Lincoln. At a meeting of the officers and di~ rectors of the New London County Im- provement league Saturday afternoon at 2.15 in the rooms of ths Norwich Chamber of Commerce in the trans- portation company bullding, F. C. Warner of Sunderland, Mase, was chosen for the position of county agent under the league, succeeding Murray D. Lincoln, who recently resigned to accept a position in the farm mortgage department of the Plymouth Colony Trust company of Brockton. Mr. Warner will assume his duties on the first of May, having been en- gaged for a yoar at the salary of $1,600, which is an advance of $800 over what Mr, Lincoln received. Prosident C. D. Whitman of ‘Water- ford opened the meeting and after the roll call and the monthly reports there was ‘a discussion - upon membership, and the directors. were urged to pur- sue this side of the league activity to keep up the membership of the socle- ty, retaining the old ones whose mem- bership may be expiring and enlisting new members. ,I. E. Crouch, director from the town'of Groton, offered his STATE BANKS PROTEST REVENUE DEPT. REQUEST Not File Returns on Their In- comes. will Members of the Connecticut Bank- ers’ association have resolved to re- fuse to filé the amended returns of income of their banks for the past five years, asked for by the internal revenue department at Washington, The department contends that the banks are not entitled to deduct the state tax from their income, on the ground that the tax is a tax upon stockholders and not upon the cor- poration. Resolutions to refuse to amend their returns were adopted at a meeting of the association at the Hartford club, Thursday afternoon, presided over by President N. D. Prince of Danielson. : The banks are contesting the action of the department on a question of principle and will probably have to pay the additional tax under protest, as the collectors of the department will doubtless make the amended re- turns themselves, and the banks are expected to sue for refund in the courts. In other states the government has won its case in the courts, bul the Connecticut bankers say the cor- poration tax law of this state is dif- ferent in that it gives the banks no resource to their stockholders for the payment of the state tax, but places the burden upon the banks. Insurance companies have also been deducting the state tax from income, thus reducing their federal tax, and probably they will soon be tasked to amend their returns. Trust companies have also been asked to make amend- ed returns. '‘EXTENDING QUARANTINE ON GYPSY MOTH Proposed to Include Many More New England Towns Under It. ‘Washington, April 25.—With a view to the extension of the federal quar- antine against the gypsy moth in new areas in the New FEngland states which have recently been found to be infected, the department of agrieul- ture announced today that a public hearing on the proposal would be held here May 6.

Orrington, WILL MAKE PLANS FOR TERMINAL SUPERSTRUCTURE New London Harbor Commission to Consider Buildings Needed. Chairman F. Valentine Chappell of the New London harbor commission has stated that a meeting of that body would be called shortly to con- sider numerous details of the con- struction of the state steamship ter- minal. Preliminary sketches of the superstructure of the big pier will be examined by the commissioners at that time. The buildings which will be es- sential to the operation of the terminal include warehouses, sheds and offices. Following the period of inactivity due to unsuitable weather, work is now being rushed on the terminal. Stone laying is going ahead rapidly, an ample supply of material now be- ing available from the quarries. With the elimination of danger from frost, the making of the concrete units whieh will constitute the surface of the pier has been resumed. It will probably be well along in the summer before the building of the superstructure of the pler -will be completed, but before that time it will ‘be possible to start: operations on the buildings to be placed upon it, THE FIRST COMMANDMENT. Rev. Myles P. Galvin Continues in Series of Sermons at St. Patrick’s Church, Continuing his serles of sermons on the Ten Commandments,” Rev, Myles P. Galvin spoke at St Patrick's chusch at the high mass Sunday on Faith, in connection with keeping the First' Commandment. n contrast to the positive obliga- tlons of Faith, 1 e, that it must bo universal, steadfast and lively, he di- rected attention to the negative qual- itles, considering heresy, lukewarm- ness and indifference. Incidentally the preacher spoke of bad books, papers, magazines and the llke which attack or seek to controvert matters of faith, superstition, such as fortune telling, which is forbldden by the Catholic church, the sloth and indifference of nominal Catholics who make excuses for remaining away from church, eto, He also uttered -a word of caution to young men who join organizations which, while carrying out thelr avowed purposes, surround thelr members Wwith a pronouncedly non-Catholic at- mosphere. tion was & Satuteris Hosria pune v n B ostla, sung Miss Dufresno. James Crow, a broker of New Ha- ven, has leased the James Palmer es- tate at Wequetequock, and has taken Dossession, 3 resighation on the ground of pressure of other business, and it was accepted. One of the matters discussed was a suggestion offered by R. D, Hill that the league open a bureau or exchange where farmers who are members of the league might list their stock or farm articles for sale or exchange. The establishment of such an exchange, he urged, might serve as an inducement for larger membership among the tarmers. Out of six or seven applicants for the position of county agent, two were most favorably considered, and these were both present at the meeting, F. K. Crandall of Westerly and F. C. Warner of Sunderland. The latter was the cholce for the place. Mr. Warner, who is about 28 years old and married, is a graduate from Amberst in 1909 and has had business experience in both the west and south since his graduation. He has recently been in the employ of the government in Florida in connection with drainage and reclamation work and is consider- ed well qualified to take up the im-~ provement league work here. “CHRISTIAN SERVICE” WAS MEN’S RALLY TOPIC Address at Y. M, C, A. by Rev. H. T. Arnold. v At the men’s meeting Sunday after- noon at the Young Men's Christian association after several enjoyable se- lections by the orchestra and the sing- ing of familiar hymns, Rev. Henry T. Arnold delivered a very helpful ad- dress on the subject Christian Ser- vice. The speaker divided the topic into three parts, first, the value of Christian _service; second, the Mas- ter we serve, and third, how we serve Him. Mr. Austin emphasized the thought that Jesus came to serve the race and that service was the exact oppo- site of selfishness and that all real ser- vice was Christian service; that Jesus in the autumn before He was taken from us emphasized the thoughts that the truly great man was he who served, and in the following spring he spoke of it, and also the night of the last supper, Then the greatness of the Master we serve; others have been great in certain realms, but Christ was great in the spiritual realm, and He is worthy of our loyalty. How shall I serve Him? this best by imitating Him, I continue to imitate and follow Him I will really serve my brother men and one day received His “Well done.” General Secretary Edwin Hill _had charge ' of the service and offered prayer. URGING MULLIGAN TO ACCEPT REELECTION. Knights of Columbus Recognizing State Doputy’s Creditable Work. The Knights of Columbus through- out Connecticut will show a large in- crease in membership when the state convention convenes at Hartford _on May 11th. This year the increase has not been confined to_the large cities, as in the past, and this is credited to the_unfaltering efforts of State Depu- ty Willlam J. Mulligan, who has ac- ceptod every opportunity to visit prac- tically every council in the state. During April not less _than 500 members will receive the third degree in New Haven, Hartford, Waterbury, Bridgeport, New London, Norwich, Meriden and Torrington. Many matters of importance will come up at the state convention, and the state officers are busy preparing their Teports. Numerous people throughout the state are urging Mr. Mulligan to.ac- cept a reelection, believing that such action would be the means of having Connecticut represented on the su- preme board of directors at the next annual meeting, RECEPTION TO A, O.

I can do and_as Contributons varying from $5,000 to a: two-cent Stamp have made up a total of more. than $85,000 toward the $400,000 Emergency fund which the Domestic and Foreign Missionary so- ciety of the Episcopal church has un- dertaken to raise in addition to its reg- ular revenue, according to announce- ment made Saturday. ‘The Missionary society started the campaign for the fund so that its an- nual budget of :$1,700,000 might be met this year without a deficit, and the committee in charge of the work has expressed gratification over the pro- gress that has bgen made. The policy has been to ask each Episcopalian in America to contribute “one day's wage or income” in addi- tion to his usual contribution for mis- sions, and the response to this appeal in general has been generous. Of the money raised the Diocese of New York to date has contributed more than $186,000. In connection with the raising of money in this country for missions it has been discovered that in spite of the war, the bélligerent nations have contributed more_heavily to misslons this year than ever before. The Church of England has exceeded all records of the last 200 years, and in Germany five of the seven missionary societies have exceeded their contributions of last year, “The budget of the American Mission- ary soclety provides for the support of 1,400 missionaries in the United States aming the Indlans, negroes and Esiimos, and 800 Omerican mission- aries and 1,000 native assistants at work in Brasil, Mexico, China, Japan and other countries, Smoke Csused.

' JAMES COSTANDI SHOT IN S8PARTA, GREECE. Former Norwich Merchant Killed by Man Whe Wanted to Berrow Money: In a Jetter received here on Saturday Peter Costandi of No. 235 Frankiin street received the sad intelligence that his brother, James Costandl, who for= merly conducted a confectionery store here in the Steiner building, had been shat and instontly killed on March 1dth at Sparta, Greece.
