NORWICH, BULLETIN, MONDA » WESTERLY WESTERLY The town of Westerly is to be put to the test as to whether there will be a contest over the alleged exces- sive gas and electric rates and dis- crimination in the charges to Wester- Iy consumers in comparison with the rates in Providence and other plac- ¢s supplied by the Narragansett com- pany. A few years ago this company purchased the Westerly Light and Power company with all its charter and franchise rights, therefore the claim is made that the Narragansett company’'s rates should apply to West- erly In Providence the rate of the company is 7 1-2 cents per killowatt hour, pius service charge, while in \Westerly the rate is 11 cents. If the ates are equalized it would mean a wving 1o Westerly consumers of at ast $24,000 a year Through a com- mittee of the town council, aided by rofessor H. E. Clifford, electrical ex- of Harvard college and Massa- School of Technology, an ation has been in progress for oral months and the report made the expert shows a clear discrim- nation against Westerly.

The Rhode Island Women's Citizen- ship committee of the National Ameri- can \Woman Suffrage association will celebrate Tuesday, July 1, as Rhode Island Women's Independence Day. The Rhode Island general assembly gave to women preidential suffrage and they will have an oportunity to exercise the privilege for the first time in the presidential election in Novem- Der, 1920. They will be required to register in the regular way as do male voters. The registration in.Rhode Island is on July 1 of this year and of next year for the November elec- tion. The first registration day for women Hds been the time selected for the celebration. There will be meet- ings on’ that day all over the state at noon, in honor of the event.

Boardman, the daring motorcycle | perforiner met with an accident Thursday night, injuring himself and others while performing at the Cali- fornia carnival in Pawcatuck, Thurs- day night. In spite of a sprained shoulder he attempted his difficult feat Friday night. He was executing the most thrilling feature of the act, when the lights were suddenly extinguished. He lost control of himself for.a frac-| tion of a second, lessened the centri- fugal force that held him in a peril- ous position, and fell to the bottom of the silo. He escaped serious injury but strained his right knee and will | probably not be able to perform for several days. In the interim his part- ner will do the act alone. The carnival has gone and very few regret the departure. Firemen’s Memorial Sunday will be general observed this year, on the second Sunday in June, and the fire companies of Westerly will parade with a band, march to River Bend, where exercises will be held and flow- ers placed on the graves of former firemen. Prior to the parade, the oth- er cemeteries in this section 1 have been visited and floral tributes placed on graves.
