Telephons 'DANIELSON urers Making the Best of the Situation — Some Utilizing: Water Power—Not Keen to Continue Wag- es—Funeral of Edwin M. M. Marlor —Cove of Assawaga River Frozen Solid. s Recovering from the first shock of the order to closs down their plants forthwith and adjusting themselves to the drastic conditions imposed upor them so unexpectedly, the manufac- turers of the town of Killingly were engaged, in several imstances Friday in an endeavor to arrange business in accordance with some modifications of the shut-down ruling, and to do the best work possible under the circum- stances. Friday a few bright: spots began to appear in a situation that a few hours before had looked as black as night. For instance, a engaged on government work, received permis- sion to operate at full capacity during the general five days' shut-down pe- riod. . Officials of the company began at once to reassemble their employes and many of them were back at their ma- chines Friday afternoon. This morning it is hoped that all emploves of the plant will have been gotten in touch with and that the mill will be operat- ing at full capacity, as it will continue to do throughout the coming week, in- cluding Monday. The mill will be closed, however, on the following 9 Mondays. Norwich-Owned Mills idle. Not a wheel was turning at the mills in Attawaugan, Ballouville and Pine- ville.” These plants are operated by the Attawaugan company, which has its headquarters office in Norwich. Water Power at Goodyear. Over at Goodyear such machinery of the plant as could be kept in op- eration through the use of 400 horse power developed from the water sup- ply was in use, this representing about ecne-quarter of the mill’'s’ power re- quiements. Ordinarily the water power of this plant will develop up to 800 horse, but the flashboards have been knocked off the dam by ice and a full water pressure.cannot be main- tained. Agent R. W. Boys said that he will run night and day on what water power is available, overating first the machines. that do the pre- naratorv werk and then, on succeeding davs, the machines that produce the cloth and do the finishing work. In this way of overating, all of the em- ployes will get some work. Hoping For Exemption. The biz plant of the . Connecticut Mills company was _ entirelv closed down Friday, but officials of the con- cern, which depends upon . electric rower for the operation of the plant. were endeavoring to get verification of puhlished statements that mills oper- ating on zovernment work are to be exempted from the ruling. {7 No Coal Used. Two other very important manufac- turing concerns in Danielson, the Quinebaug company and the Danielson Cotton company were keepinz - as much of their machinery running as was possible with. the water power that was ayailable. The same was trie at the plant of the Wauregan company in’ Wauregan. No coal was being used for power at any of these plants. Other Mills Idle. Among others of Killingly's mills that are entirely closed down are the River Weaving comnany, the White- <toane Worsted company, the Killingly Worsted companv, the Davis and Brown Woolen company, the Interna- fional Cotton company. With the ex- ception of the River Weaving com- nany, which uses electricitv for now- er and is located in Danielson, these mills are strung along the = stream from E~st Killinely down to Eim- ville. Under ordinary circumstances. this series of mills would have gond water power, but the ereatly diminish- ed rainfall of the past few weeks and the heavy ice has so reduced the available sunply as to make it of al- most neeligible value, and every plant has been closed, as fuel cannot be used. Limited Operation Possible. Killingly’s consolation, slizht as it is, lles in the fact that a few of its concerns have some water power to depend on and can operate on a limit- ed schedule. Not Keen to Pav Wages. Dr. Garfield’s suggestion that . the manufacturers continue to pay em- ploves during the shut-down period was reearded here by the representa- tives of some mills as on a par with the muddle in which the plants have been placed by his drastic order. One manufacturer said: “Garfield Las made a mess of the whole situa- ion, has sotten the eastern half of the country in a hole and he now has the effrontery to ask the manufacturers to nay for the mistakes that have been made. If the situation wasn’t so se- rious, his suggestion would be a joke. We suggest that as the government is responsible, the government make zood the wage losses to the employes. This would only be just.” FUNERALS, Edwin M. M. Marlor, At his home in Brooklyn Friday aft- ernoon funeral services for E. M. M. Marler were conducted by Rev. Jo- seph Allen. Burial was in the Brook- lyn cemetery. The bearers were Will- iam Clewly, Nathan D. Prince, Na- thaniel Willlams, Frederick Miller, Judge Oscar F. Atwood and Willis Kenyon. A. F. Wood was the fu- neral director. Thomas B. Watson. Funeral services for Thomas B. Watson of North Foster were held at the North Foster church, Rev. Searls Young officiating. Burial was at East Killingly. Relatives acted as LIVES 200 YEARS!

Private James Moran, a selected man from this district and whose home is in Dayville, has never failed on a day since he was called into the service early last fall to write a let- ter to his mother, who is a resident of Dayville, and his record of remem- brances includes all Sundays and hol- idays. Mrs. Moran is rightfully proud of the devotion that her son s show- ing her. Evening Services Suspended. In the interest of conmserving fuel and light, it has been voted by mem- bers of the church to suspend tempor- arily evening services at St. Philip's church, Back From France. Freq Lafontaine, who is serving in the navy and who has recently re- turned from another trip to France, is spending a few days’ furlough here. He is one of the Putnam boys who is becominf famliar with the experience of running the German submarine blockade and doesn’t seem to mind the risk the least bit. Double Holiday. When the stores in Putnam close tonight it will be for a double holi- day, in accordance with the recent Garfield order declaring the next ten Mondays. legal holidays. This means that shoppers will have to get bLusy and do trading today sufficient to meet the needs of the next two days. The closing of stores wll be quite general, but of course, will not inciude certain ones ‘that are exempted under the ruling.

Comment on Dr. Garfield’s five days’ order for paralysis of business was inducing any more complimentary re- marks here Friday than was the case on Thursday. As a matter ‘of fact the caustic criticism grew in volume until there seemed to be a steady cho- rus of it. Hundreds of mill workers who have been temporarily thrown out of em- ployment were particularly bitter and they pointed out more than a score of different reasons why they felt the ac- tion taken was unjust to them. There isn’t any indication that man- ufacturers here are any more favora- ble to following Dr. Garfield's sugges- tion relative to payving employes for time lost than there is in hundreds of other towns and cities n the coun- try, and the employes realize that they are going to fose a lot of prospective earnings of which they have real need. Putnam’s manufacturing industries ‘|were practically stilled Friday as the result of the order, though some con- cerns that have water power avail- able were running some machinery and giving work to some employes.
