IiL. Plant. It has been reported that the Ameri- can Strawboard Co., formerly the Un- cas Paper Co., in Thamesville, were about to move their plant from Thamesville, to Quincy, Tll, on ac- count of labor conditions in this vi- cinity which at present seem preva- lent among -Montville_concerns. In an interview Friday evening, ames J. Iyvd, local manager of the American Strawboard Co., gave out the statement that the company is not having any labor troubles whatever. In reference to the report of the re- moval of the plant, Manager Boyd ted the real situation. He said: “For several years the Uncas plant has failed to return to their stock- holders any returns for their invest- ment, and as the demand for corrug- ited straw board had increased en- ormously in the past two years, we had decided to dismantle our ma- chines and_ship them to Quincy, IL ‘ortunately however, the ~ increased demang for paper box board made this move unnes ry for the present. By the hearty co-operation of our em- ployes with the new management and the introduction of _better business methods, we have been able to make . profit on our product. It has given us great pleasure to have our em- American Strawboard Go. Will Rema Mm’lager James J.

We have increased the wages of our men con- siderably in the past three months and also helieve our employes are satis- fied and contented.” In_ speaking of the dismantling of machinery Mr. Boyd ‘stated that while it is a fact that one of the machines is being dismantled, and will be ship- ped to the new ‘plant, now in the course of construction at Quincy, 11, they do not expect to send all our ma- chines west. By co-operation of our employes, said Mr. Boyd, we can guarantee steady work for some ttme to come, as we expect to open up a new field for our production. We realize that boom times are nearly over and it is our aim ta equip our mill so that we can run it in competition with* other mills, when the present industrial ac- tivity wanes. But should there be la- bor demands made on us that would make it a physical impossibility to comply with we would of necessity be forced to move our plant to a field that promises greater monetary attractions to our stockholder: The majority of our employes do not wish to organize, in spite of the fact that there is a movement on foot stated Mr. Boyd.

ITELLS OF GREAT NEED IN SERBIA Miss Julia Sabine Addressed Audience in Town Hall. Before a fair sized audience, con- sidering the weather conditions, Miss Julia Sabine of Lyme and New York, who has been doing very effective work among the soldiers in Serbia, gave a public stereopticon jecture in the town hall Mayor Allyn L. Brown presided and introduced the speaker. Miss Sabine told a little bit of the history of Serbia, the condition of the country and what the people are suf- ferinz. She depicted very vividly hor- ror-stricken sceres. Miss Sabine at the time the war broke out was in England and through friends she was requested to aid in Serbia. She told of refugees fleeins from Bulgarian soldiers and how the Serbians were Killed on invasions. She cited several cases of how women walked at least 20 miles with children in retreat from the invading soldlers. Interestingly she told of how fever- stricken soldiers requested the relief corps to lend aid to the women and children first. When sick and wounded _soldiers were being taken off trains they were made to walk owing to the roushness of the populace. One relief worker who is of a Dutch descent came to me, said Miss Sabine, and suggested forming a chair to carry the wounded and sick men which we did. This little act was a perfect reveliation to them and things like that we have tried to learn them and they are easy to _learn. Serbia has always been fighting for liberty and in about 1850 they became Christianized and in 1878 they becamo o free country. The country in cer- tain sections in quite fertile and has minerals. There have always been others who have tried to get the best of her. Ser- bia is a country of peasant people and for that reason they do not advertise themselves. They have asked only a Little money from America and they have suffered more than the Belgians. While other countries aided Belgium their sufferings by surrounding ountries, Serbia is so located that Greece would be looked for aid but Greece did not help and as for a country Greece does not have re- sources of her own. Serbia. has been invaded four times within the last two years and the last with an army of about 200,000 men the Serbians had to withstand an invading army of 600,000. She had to save her small army bLy recreating in front of the, enemy. The army re- treated through the Serbian moun- tains, through the Albanian moun- tains, leaving ammunition ana food behind. In consequence they had nothing to begin over with azain. The army was taken in hand by the French who rehabilitated it, provid- ing uniforms and took the army by water to Salonica which is considered wonderful feat. They are now fight- ing without any hospital supplies, doc- tors or nurses. The French have given what they could but which amounted to practically nothing. The Serbian Red Cross has sent out a plea for a hospital, doctors and nurses and we are sending over in two or three weeks a umit to zo to the front. -We need an ambulance and money desperately. We cannot send ouf the hospital without $2,900 which must be raised within two weeks. Charles H. Phelps of the Merchants National bank in your cit will gladly receive all contribution whether large or small for this work. The Serbian army will die out if help is not sent immediately. The French have cabled for the hospital ana would t have done so unless it was urgent. Miss Sabine, who worked last sum- mer in was driven out In the rettreat and has been working among the soldiers. She saw many Adesper- | ate ana_horror-stricken sights which | will undoubtedly she will never for- | get. The lecture was {llustrated by about | 60 stereopticon views.

Dorsey, state bursing agent for the federal gov- ernment, with offices at the armory in Hartford, went to New laven this week in order to take over and give 1 receipt for the equipment of t Yale batteries. The organizations are Batteries A, B, C and D of the Tenth Militia Field Artillery, and not only their equipment. from the quarter master’s department, but also their ordnance must be taken over by Col- onel Dorsey and inventoried. Adju- tant General George M. Cole said he expected this duty to occupy the col- onel for several days, even with a large staff of assistants. The equipment will be stored in the old mess halls at the state camp ground at Niantic, General Cole said, there being no facilities for storing it in New Haven or elsewhere. General Cole has written several times to the war department for in- formation as to the date when the batteries will be discharged from the National guard, but has received no reply. “I cannot imagine what the tions of the government may regards the batteries, for at present they are ordered merely to be mus- tered out of the federal service, and revert to their former standing as ional guard units,” he said. General Cole’s perplexity was due to the fact that in August the govern- ment ordered that the batteries be discharged from the National guard when they left the federal service. inten- be as DON'T FORGET REGULARS. National Headquarters Sends Letters to All Chapters, A letter sent to all chapters of the Red Cross hy national headquarters in Washington reminding the chapters not to forget in their enthusiasm for the needs of their respective national guardsmen that the regulars also have similar needs has been received by lo- cal chapters. The point is emphasized in the let- ter that the regulars have been on a hard campaign on actual Mexican soil for months, ard in the border country for an even longer period. While, of course, more seasoned than the guards- men, these regulars have many needs in the way of comforts and accessories and they would deeply appreciate even a few remembrances. ‘Chapters are asked to provide boxes to be. sent to the regulars and their contents will be similar to those which 20 to the guardsmen. Civil War Veteran Nead Death. Robert B. Smith, of 7 Huntington street, New London a veteran of the Civil war, is critically il at the Mem- orial hospital, where he has been 2 pa- tient several days. “His condition is so grave that his recovery is not ex- pected -~ Mr. Smith has heen the vic- tim of several shocks which have crippled him and a few days ago com- plications developed which necessitat- ed his removal to the hospital. He is Toe AVILY FINED FOR SHORT AUTO RIDE. Fort Wright Soldied Took Uninvited Ride in Stolen Machine. A ride of less than one-eighth of a mile taken by Leo J. Wilson, a sol- dier stationed at Fort Wright, in a stolen automobile Thursday evening, cost him a fine of $85 and costs, when he appeared before Associate Judge Crandall in the New London police court Friday morning charged with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor. Wilson was _arrested on Masonic Istreet about 9.30 o'clock Thursday evening after he had taken a machine belonging to _Edward E. Lathrop of Brooklyn, N. Y., a summer resident at 495 Montauk avenue. The soldier was on leave last evening, having re- cently returned from service on the Mexican ‘INrder. That he Wsited several refreshment emporiums before appropriating Mr. Lathrop's automobile was admitted in courf when he entered a plea of guilty to the charge of intoxication. He had no explanation to make to Judge Crandall ‘s to his reasons for taking the car. J. H. Conley, a conductor employed by the New iHaven road, saw Wilson jump into the car, while it was stand- ing in front of the Gager-Crawford Co. in State street, near the corner of Main. Conley had previously seen the soldier trying several other ma- chines, which apparently were too complicated for him to operate. According to the story furnished the police, Wilson hoppéd into the Lathrop' machine and started on a zig zag tour, around the- corner of State and Main street and thence to Ma- sonic street.
