Undertakers Church and Allen had charge of the funeral arrangement OBITUARY ana ! student at| Charles | and ' ‘What the Marlin-Rockwell corpora- tion’s contribution towards the war needseof the government amounted to was discussed by A. F. Rockwell, head of the corporation, in an inter~ view given at his home in Bristel. While the Norwich plant of this con- cern has been standing idle for some time and the machinery is being ship- ped out of it in small lots, Mr. Rock- el hag nothing ‘to say about what would eventually be done with the Norwich plant, although he stated that the Philadelphia plant of the Marlin- Rockwell corporation is e in making ball and roller bearings. also wire wheels for automobiles. During the war, the New Haven plant’ also made radiators for airplanes, and is ow continuing the work for automo- biles; also roller bearings and _steel balls, and asbestos Insulated wire. At Plainville, just outside of Bristol, the corporation has a factory to which it is about to make a_ large addition, which will be the centef of a most un- usual experiment, which has attracted wide attention. It consists in the manufacture of an “air flivver,” a light two-passenger airplane for pleasure or commercial use. Hugh Rockwell, the inventor, began work with the the- ory that since an automobile needed more cylinders than an airplane, mov- ing at varying speeds, inasmuch as the power in the latter must be more flexible, an airplane, which must go at top speed to encounter wind re- sistance sufficient to leave the ground, needs fewer cylinders to move at greater speed. . He proved the accuracy of his con- clusions by building a two-cylinder plane, with a much lighter frame than that of the usual machine, and fat fewer parts. The machine weighs 530 pounds with two passengers, - 480 pounds with neither passepgers nor fuel. The plane rises off the ground within Jess than 100 feet, and lands in the same distance. It is built to sell for about $1,000. The price of the or- dinary plane, when it is new. is be- tween $12,000 and $15,000. Mr. Rockwell came into the “gun drama” when he got a contract for Russia through the British govern- = ment. He option on the Marlin nt 1n Now Haven and he WV gat together somme foriY RIEh- priced mechanics,” said Mr. Rockwell, “and ‘work 2 the y et ting ready. We rented the faeilities of many machine plants in New Eng: land, and placed men at work. Hacl man was a special expert on some particular part. There were about 1,- 500 different machine operations, .all of which were co-ordmeted wo ‘that ey worked together and passed a rigid government inspection. ~The New Haven plant got the first guns out on time, completed the whole contract within the time limit.” This remarkable achievement was followed by two other comtracts with the British government for Russia, both of which were finished on time. When the United States entered the war, the Marlin-Rockwell plant sup- plied the army with the first machine guns used for training purposes. Guns of varions types were _subsequently supplied to the troops abroad, and to the navy, to be mounted on merchant ships for use at sea. Nearly 3,000 guns were supplied to the navy, with mounts and other ac- cessories. The Marlin machine gum was the only fixed gun to be used. on American airplanes abroad. At the end of the war, the Marlin- Rockwell corporation was making ma- chine guns to be used in tanks which the government pro to use, and had orders for about 7,200. Perhaps the most spectacular bit of enterprise displayed by Mr. Rockwell was his acquisition. of the Hopkins- Allen_machine plant -at Norwich. This firm was engaged in filling a contract for the Belgian government for 150,000 rifies. The contract could not he com- pleted. and the need was imperative. Quickly divining the situation, Mr. Rockwell bought out the plant, as- suming the contract. The rifles were supplied within the interval agreed upon. . Approximately 4,000 people were em- ployed at_the Norwich plant: about 7.000 at New Haven. and 3,500 at a plant in Philadelphia.

KNOCKED DOWN AND i RUN OVER BY AUTO Mike Dannis. wh is a jitney driver, was knocked dowX and run over in Franklin square Saturday night about IX.SG o’'clock by an automobile driven by a Mr. Bouville of Baltic. The for- | warq wheel went over Dannis’ body | jbut Mr. Bouville brought the car to a’ stop before the rear wheel had reach- ed the man on the ground. According to witnesses whom the po- lice xamined, Dannis stepped suddcn- 1y from the sidewalk in front of Mad- den’s store directly into the path of the machine whose driver could mnot ee the man because of an automobile ‘bus which was standing at the curb. Officer Daniel J. O'Neill took the two men and severil witnesses to police headquarters, where Dr. Paul Gadle treated Dannis and Capt. D. J. Two- mey decided that Mr. Bouville was not to blame. The doctor found that Dannis was badly bruised about the chest and al- %0 on one leg and arm. The man went to his home in the Marguerite iand on Sunday was so stiff and sore from his bruises that he could not get out of bed. SOLDIER HIT NEGRO AND TORE UP CELL Two soldiers from Fort Wright, Leon M. Greene, 23, of Wheeling, Va. and Edmond Bolling, 21, of Poland. Va. were arrested on Saturday night on West Main street near Thames square on the charge of drunkenness and breach of the peace in making an at- jtack on a negro Ralph Tattoon of Put- nam. Bolling is accused of having hit Tat- toon in the face after the two soldiers i had followed the man as he was walk- ing with two colored women named Whitford When Bolling had been put into a cell at the police station he ripped out some of the fittings and will be charged in court with injury to public property Officer Ralph Divito was across the street when he heard the sound of the SIN IS FAILURE TO KEEP PACE WITH GOD At the United Church Sunday morn- ing, the pastor, Rev. Alexander H. Ab- bott preached a masterly sermon on A Modern Man's Conviction of Sin, using as_a general text that por- tion of the book of Gemesis, third| chapter, dealing with Adam and Eve, who conscious of their fault, hid from Jehovah, as He walked among the trees in the garden. Sin is now just what it was in an- cient times, and will be all the to- morrows—the fact of not keeping pace with the progress of God. God is a God of progress. who walks through the trees of life. The companionship of a God of progress is absolutely nec- essary for a mnation’s growth. Sin means not keeping pace with the pro- gress of God at any time. FExamine some of those old _fashioned laws which govern us. In the late war Germany lost its stride and sinned by not keeping vace with God. Kings sin when they do not keep pace with the on-rushing progress of humanity; capatalists sin when they do not keep pace with the insight that fair deal- ing and justice are ties that cannot be resisted. Then, there are the sins that- mareh with a_socialistic move- ment, which men call mob violence, or reigns of terror, But, whatever be the nature of thése movements, right- tousness in any social unrest, is keep- ing pace with the progress of God in_ such movement. It is very easy to polnt at the mote in our brother's eve; the. real test| comes when we enter into the home of each individuals life. If the individual does not keep pace with the progress| of knowledge, he sins tremendous! Let’s have done with the belief of life which secludes sin to some special steps: sin runs riot in all phases of lite, in every big social movement of today, and all mundane affairs. God's spirit’ is always walking among the trees. and the men and women who hide_there, are not Keeping pace with the Divine step. We escape sin_only when we try to walk with God— righteousness consists in keeping step with Him. while sin, is nothing more | nor less than losing pace with the| Divine guidance. The poils will open in all six districts | this morning at 6 o'clock and close in | all districts at. 2 o'clock, except the | First district, where the closing hour 3 o'clock.

Jackson was notified Saturday night by police authorities of Drumright, Oklahoma, of the ar- rest of David Sweiden, wanted in this city in connection with the kidnap- ping of his four-vear-old son, Carroll, from the home of his adopted marents, Mr. and Mrs. Albert C. Whitaker of 449 Jackson street. Sweicy1 came to this city Monday, Sept. 8 in an automobile bearing Pub- lic Service license No. 220 and driven by Rosario Freno of 519 Bank street, New London. He directed Freno to the home of the child’s adopted par- ents on Jackson street and waited the car until his driver brought the child to him. Police awghorities were notified of the kidpapping and after working on the case found that the automobile had been driven to New York, but further trace of Sweiden and the child was not availdble. Ireno, however, upon his return to New London told all he knew of the affair. County Detective Jackson then took up the case and knowing that Sweiden had lived in Drumright, Oklahoma, no- tified the authorities to arrest Sweiden if he returned there. Four weeks passed b without word and last night Mr. Jackson received a teleram from | undersheriff Childress of Drumright, Oklahoma, notifying him of the ar- rest of Sweiden and that he would be held for further information: qui- sition papers are being made ouf and will be sent to the Drumright authori- ties and Sweiden will be brought back to this state for trial Sweiden does not intend to zive up the child without a fight and will car- ry the case into the courts. State At- torney Charles earls will repre sent the county in the case as he is recognized as authority on such cases and won one of th bizgest kidnapping cases this country has seen. This was the case of Ferdinando Wagd who en- tered the broker business and be- came mixed up in deals that resulted In his beinz sentenced to prison. He kidnapped his son ng with an uncle. When captured by the nolice Ward fought the case and it was carried through the court until it reached the United States supreme court and there Attor- ney Searls was given the decision mentioned. A At one time Sweiden lived in this city but owinz to domestic troubles; he and his wife separated, the chil- dren being committed to the county home. Sweiden left the city and until the date of the kidnapping of his son from the home of the neople who had taken him out of the county home and adopted him. had never returned. Mr. and Mrs. Whitaker were notified of the finding of Sweiden and the child soon after the telegram was received and hope that the boy will be returned to them.
