CONDUCTORS 60 NORWICH BULLETIN, MONDAY, AUGUST 12, 1918 BACK TO WORK Shore Line Trolley Was Crippled in New London on Slhlr-} day—Company = Agrees to Investigate Complaints Against Rooke Register—Men Resumed Work Sunday of Register. Shore Line trolley conductors in New London went back to work on the cars there on Sunday morning after a day of idleness on Saturday, when they refused to work with the Rooke hand registers. As the result of several conferences on Saturday between the representatives of the conductors and the trolley officials, the men agreed to return to work the next day, still using the Rooke registefs, while the company has agreed to in- vestigate any complaints which the conduetors may make against the registers. It is understood that an impartial committee is to watch and pass upon the operatien of the registers in actu- al service and that each side will abide by the decision of the commit- tee. The New, London local lines were the only ones that were affected by the agreement that the conductors had made with each other not to work if the company did not withdraw the Rooke register. On the Norwich lines, officials of the.company said last POULTRYMEN SAVE BY KILLING SLACKER HENS Prove It By Exveriments in Stafford Springs and Somers Flocks The food committee of the Connecti- cut State Council of Defense announe- ed today the results of the first three demoustrations conducted in the eam- paign to eliminate slacker hens and thus save the poultrymen of the state $100,000,000 a month that it is costing to feed hens that don't lay. Forty per cent of the hens in the average flock are sure to lie down and quit during August and September. These are neither the best layers nor the best breeders There is no earthly reoson for kecping them: they ought to be slaughiered if the chicken man can only be sure he knows which hen to «ill and which one to keep. e M Ta:ders, Cha o wn cf the F'oud Commitiee, was at first skepucal about the whole proposition but his poultry specialists today submitted facts that were absolutely convincing. Mr. Landers said the poultry farmer ‘was asked to keep a record of the num- ber of esrs he got for one week be- fore the demonstration and ior one week following, so there is no guess warkbout it G. F. Shepard of Staf- ford Springs got 526 eggs in a week from 270 white Wyandottes, a vield of 28 per cent. The demonstrator looked these hens over carefully ané picked out 130 that were culls. By this own count, Mr Shepard got 510 eggs the next week from the remafning 140 hens, or a vield of 52 per cent, word: In other these 120 slackers were laying cos! ng $8.00 a week to feed them. The flocks and the feed bills were cut in half, the income from the eggs was reduuced only five per cent. Another instance cited was that of Al £m:th of Somers, who hadi a flock of 47 white Leghorns laving at the rate cf 3€ per cent. The demon- strator culled out 17 poor birds that were laying all told only one egg a day and the egg vield of the flock jumped to 65 per cent. At the Gilbert Farm Schos! in Georgetown. 1400 hens were handled and over 800 of them were dis- carded as culls. This damonstration :;;]\l!efl the school $40 a week in feed s.

The speakers were State Master Blakeman. State Chaplain Hovt. Past Master Mr. Martin, a four min- nte speaker. and National Lecturer Kitcham of Michigan, the latter a par- tieularly strong speaker who held the close attention of his audience during his _entire speech. The athletic eontests which it was intended to hold had to be called off on aceount of the rain. Most of the visiting officers went from the Spur to Storrs, where a lecturers’ confer- ence was held Saturday agpc Sunday. Navy Enlistmenets Suspended Unti! Further Orders. The U. S. Navy Reeruiting Station 86, State St. New Londnn, Conn.. has received the following instruction: “T'ntil further orders no meore will be enlisted or enrolled in the Navy or tha U. S. Naval Reserves. This or- der-does not apply to thoge who on or — e night, the car® were run as usual and none of the conductors joined the movement initiated by the New Lon- don men. In New London on Saturday the car crews orted as usual in the morn- ing for duty, but when the announce- ment was made by Traffic Manager Cain_that the company absolutely re- fused to remove the hand registers, the conductors announced that they would not operate the cars and the motormen refused to go to work in sympathy with the fare collectors. It wag then that the company started to operate cars as best it coffld from among its inspectors and clerical force of employes in New Londen and in Norwich. The service was maintained, though net on .schedule, from 8 a. m. to 8 p. m., when the crews who had worked all day had to be wifhdrawn, to avoid clashiug with state law as to Ilimit of hours of employment. No lotal New Londem cars were run in the evening. During the day also no attempt had been made to operate the Jefferson avenue line. ORGANISTS’ CONVENTION IN PORTLAND THIS YEAR War's Effects Are Seen on the Pro- gramme—Meeting Inspiring. (Special to the Bulletin) Portland, Me.,, Aug. ). 1918. The National Association of Organ- ists, which for three years preyious to this, has held the Annual Conventions in Springfield, this year is holding the Convention at Portland, Me. Arthur Scott Brook, the President, being un- able to be here this year, Vice-Presi- dent Frederick Schliedeo of New York is presiding at the session. Some of those who have been seen at former conventions are not here. but have sent letterp expressing this regret and wish- ing all success to the work. the great attractions, is the fact tat the first President of the N. A, "O. Mr. Will C. Macfarland, Municipal Or- ganist of this city has given some fine recitals on the Kotschmar Mem- orial Organ. One of the selections which he plaved was his Storm Fanta- sia in which the thunder and rain were very realistic.

Cost Ar- tillery. the subject: Music for the Army and Navy. An, interesting paper on “Band Musie” was given by Wallace Good- rich, Boston, Mass. in which he said that the band of the Army were being improved: by raising the number from 28 men to 8, also by providing better marehes and so forth. A paper on “Camp Songs” was very inspiringly illustrated by J. P. Marshall of Boston. ‘Wednesday evening, Mr. Revnolds L. McCall gave a very interesting lecture on “The Poilu and His Music.” This was illustrated with some fine slides, -pictures which he had taken while en- gaged in Y. last winter. This morning Mr. Rollo F. Maitland of Philadelphia, will play the organ for a filrt. at the Strand theatre. The Convention closes tonizht with a recital by Henry S. Fry, representa- tive of the American Organ Players’ Club of Philadelphia. It seems to he the feeling that the meeting is fully up to former ones in helpfilness to those who are organists and in fact, to other musicians, as weli. The same spirit of comradship and good cheer prevails, and the inspiration this pro- vided, ought to be a great actor in the future work of those who are so privi- ledged as to have been present. M.

WILL GIVE RATING TO POWER PLANTS On Coal Saving Plan—Questionnaries Sent Out in Connecticut. To insure the most effictent econ- omy in the use of coal by Connecti- cut power plants, W. R. C. Corson. administrative engineer of the United States fuel administration In this state, has begun to put in operation a scheme of rating and classifying the plants by a questionnaire system as approved by the federal fuel heads. He has sent ont letters to all Connecticut power plant owners, explaining the federal plan, stating that he has been ap- pointed administrator of the work. and asking co-operation in carrying it out. Three of the questionnarles have been sent to each plant owner, one of which the owner is requested to fill out, attest, and return to the ad- ministrator’s office by August 24. The questionnaire- with its information complete is to constitute a report on in a she In some way that she cannot explain the pockethook had the present condition of the piant: and the degree of compliance with the re- commendations—for the saving of fuel —which it indicates will form a basis for the rating of the vlant in one of five classes and for the apportionment of coal by the fuel administrator in the case of shortage. To Held Second Copy. Tach owner is requested to hold the second eopy of his questionnaire until the visit -of a federal fuel inspector who, with the owner or his engineer, will fill cut the answers, sign with the owner take up the copy and forward it to the administrator's office.

NO IMMEDIATE RADICAL CHANGE IS CONTEMPLATED Along Soissons-Rheims Front, cording to Condition Survey. Ac- With the merican Army on the Vesle Front, Aug. 11.—(By The Associated Press). A general survey of condi- tions along the Soissons-Rheims front indicates the improdability of any im- mediately radical change there. The Germans have stabilized their line be- tween the Vesle and the Aisne, and the Americans and French continue their persistent recopnaissance work, which may or may. not develop into a general action. Securing Information. Minor thrusts by both sides con- tinue, but except for furnishing means for securing information, they are serving little purpose. In general the Franco-American line is now along the river and the railroad, with the Ger- mans on the higher ground bevond. Photo by Aviators.

Mr. Hearst Makes Denial. Mr. Hearst late tonight issued a statement in which he reciared that “the intimation that Count Von Bern- storff and Bolo Pasha met at my house is a characteristic falsification” by Mr. Lewis. He deciared that “the obviouz object has been to endeavor to weaken the effect of my opposition to thé liquor interests and the corrupt financia linterests” which he asserted Mr. Lewis represenis in the present gubernatorial campaign. “I do not recall ever having met Von Bernstorff at my house, and I think that the only time he called there was at afternoon tea, when I vas away. But all of this eccurred before the entrance of the United States into the war, and I had a perfect right to meet the German ambassador, or any other ambassador. Thers was no secreqy about any of this matter, as Mr. Lewis’ own affidavits prove.” . STRUGGLE FOR FISMETTE IS CONTINUOUS FIGHT. Americans Hold Fast, Germans At- tempt to Di lodge Them. With the American Army on the Vesle Front, Aug. 11—(By The Asso- ciated Press)—S$ p. m.—The Germans made two artillery attacks against the Franco-American troops on the Vesle front, but the allied troops counter- attacked so vigorously that the Ger- mans did not launch an infantry at- tack. The struggle for the retention of Fismette, on the northern bank of the Vesle, near Fismes. has developed vir- tyally into a continuous fight. The Americans, however, are holding the upper hand, notwithstanding the Ger- man attempts to dislodge them, American Co-ordination. The first American field army has been organized. It is under the direct command of General John J. Pershing, commander-in-chief of the American forces. The cerps commanders thus LONG RANGE GUN MAY REMAIN IN SILENCE. Aiiied Advance Has Almost Reached the Child-Killer. Paris, Aug. 1 The long range canmon with v h the Germans have intermittently bombarded Paris for more than four months has now been silent for two days. This fact may be explained by the allied advance to- ward Noyon and Guiscard, six and one-half miles north of Noyon, whence the recent firing is said to have been proceeding, as these localities are now endangered by the Freth forward push. WINCHESTER WORKMEN WERE SEVERELY INJURED The Retirning From Outing When Motor Truck Was Wrecked. Cheshire, Conn., Aug. 11.—Twelve men were injured, none seriously, when a motor truck carrying thirty employes of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company of New Haven, was wrecked on a mountainous part of the South- ington road, near here late today. The men were returning home from an outing at Hiscock's Lake when the brakes refused to work and the truck sped wildly down the hill, pitching out nearly all the occupants at the foot of the grade. Eight of the injured were brought to Cheshire and were at- tended by Dr. Charles N. Denison. Extensive forest fires broke out in the rural districts south of Auck- land, New Zealand, a few days since, which caused very heavy losses in many cases. It is estimated that about 36,000 acres were swept by the fire, including some grass and pasture lands, and that some. 30.000 sheep were burned, the total loss being more than $300,000. More than 160 homes were burned, together with fencing to the value of more than $100,000, and nine sawmills were de- stroyed.
