Howard Bros. Chemical Co., Buffalo, ROTARIANS PAN Traffic regulations for Norwich was the topic of discussion at the weekly noonday luncheon of the Norwich ‘Rotary club on Wednesday at the Wauregan ho- tel. The general sentiment.of ‘those who expressed opinions of the matter was that above .everything Franklin square should be cleaned up and freed from the congestion made there by the jitney ‘busses and public service cars. And that Rose alley should be also cleaned up as the crowd that assembled about the automobiles there are many times an annoyance to those Who have to pass by that point. One member of the club in' speaking on the question said that it was the trolleys that brought the majority of purchasers tosthe city and that the jitney 'busses that solicited trade in the square not only held up traffic but made it dangerous for pedestrians in gettins, on and off the trol- leys. He also mentioned the Rose alley situation and the annoyance that -it caused and said that if we must have the jitneys blocking the streets to make the license fee $500 if mecessary. Another membeér sald that the police- men should use more judgment in order- ing persons that they thought wer: vio- lating a law and should use more cour- tesy to residents and strangers. He cited a case where a man whose lights had burned out was stopped. - The officer told him he could not proceed without a light and that he could not leave his car in the spot where it was. The officer told him to get a light, but as it was after midnight there was small possibility of this. The man was finally sent to the police station and a -lantern was se-| cured for him. In speaking of this mat- ter the speaker likened it to a case in New London where he was stopped under similar conditions and that the officer there was courteous, telling him to pro- ceed slowly and get it fixed as soon as he could and that if another officer stop- ped him tell that officer that the driver of the machine had been stopped by an- other officer. The speaker spoke of the parking regulations in the city and said that parking in Shetucket street should be limited only during certain hours as most of the banks were closed after 3 o'- clock and it would do not harm for cars to park on both sides of the street. He also spoke of the courtesy that the po- licemen should show strangers who were unfamiliar with the traffic laws of our city and were not expected to know them. here should be more enforcement of | the laws now that we have them, said another member of the club. Not onlyi TRAFFIC RULES should there be rigid enforcement but the traffic officers should be given more thor- ough instruction about their duties, stat- ing that many times after giving one car the right of way the officer would change his signal and give a trolley or some pe- destrians the right of way, causing much confusion. The officers should be given instruction in signaling to drivers, whereas now the signals might be inter- preted to mean go ahead or stop. There was a difference in opinion about making these streets one-way while others said that if these were made one-way it would mean going through the square where the traffic was congest- ed enough as it is. One man said that he had no fault to find with the traffic laws because as yet they had not been enforced very rig- idly but if they were everyone would be in jail by now. Regarding Main street, one business man stated that it was a detriment to business on the street to al- low parking on one side and not on the other. Another stated that no parking [} at all should be allowed on Broadway and that in front of the Davis theatre they should only allow parking on one side. Others mentioned the speed laws and the open muffler law, stating that in the night time some motorists had no respect for those who were sleeping and would use their cut-out. The result of the discussion culminat- ed in the appointing of a committee to take up the matter with the committee from the common council in regard to traffic regulations. This committee ap- pointed by President Worth is Milo R. Waters, T. C. Murphy and Adelard Mo- rin, At the meeting there were about 35 present, including several guests. Presi- dent J. C. Worth presided and then turn- ed the meeting over to Lucius Briggs, who conducted it. Robert Briggs, who recently returned from Holland, and was a guest of the club, favored with a solo as did Henry Fontaine. Plans for the entertainment of the New London club on next Wednesday were discussed and it is planned to have the luncheon in the hotel followed by an afternoon of recreation at the Golf club. Many unique features have been planned | for the entertainment of the New London Rotarians. n invitation was read from Rev. William A. Keefe requesting the mem: bers of the club to attend the Diamond Jubilee celebration of St. Mary's church on July 4th. The meeting closed with | the singing of the Star Spangled Ban- ner. TEACHERS SUNDAY, JUNE 27 BY GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATION Governor Marcus H. Holcomb has isued the following prociamation on Teachers’ Sunday, June 27: Whereas the perpetuity of our free in- stitutions and of our Tepresentative gov- ernment rests upon an enlightened pub- lic conscience and an intelligent ~body- politic; whereas the maintenance of our vublic school system has, hitherto, been of inestimabls value to this Common- wealth—teaching the youth the English language, the principles of democracy, and the arts of peace; whereas, at the present time, the supply of trained teach- in this state is inadequate for se- ng the best results in our schools and whereas only a few of Connecticut's young men and women are entering our normal schools to prepare for teaching in the immediate future: Now, Therefore, 1 Marcus H. Holcomb, governor of the state of Connecticut, do hereby set apart Sunday, June 27, 1 at Teacher Sunday, and 1 recommend that the clergy throughout the state take that occasion to call the attention of their congregations to the educational situation in this Commonwealth, to em- phasize the necessity of civic, mental, and moral training for the youth in a democracy, and to ask for a generous support of our public schools. so that every child in the state can have an op- portunity to attend a school in charge of a competent teacher, and so that school ‘service may be made so attrac- tive that more 3 good native a ung men and women of ty may enter our nor- mal schools to prepare for the teach-| ing profession. HIGHWAY PATROL TO PREVEN BOAT RACE DAY ACCIDENTS state motor vehicle department, the state highway department and the state police are co-operating in carry- ing out a plan to patrol on Thursday | and Friday the highways that lead tol New London to prevent automobile ac- cidents on the day of the Yale-Har- vard hoat races.

This woodbine, at present a rich shade of green. will turn in the fall to deep red. Although planted on the westerly side of the house about for- ty vears ago and for many years flour- ished ; after the death of the person who planted it, it apparently seemed to die and for a few years did not thrive. For the past five years the present occupants have carefully trained it each summer, until now it entirely covers the upper front veranda, with long streamers hang- ing over the lower veranda, and extend- ing on both sides. The vine has festoon- ed itself in a most picturesque manner. On the easterly side of the house is an immense stately maple. William MecDonald of Noank Harry O'Brien, Charles and Lawrence Gremley of Mystic, members of Stonington Lodge, I 0. O. F., motored to Willimantic on Wednesday fo attend the encampment meeting, and’ participate in the parade and banquet there in the afternoon and evening.

This is to be the last Sunday service until fall. Henry Law of Fall River, Mass., em- ATTORNEY D. L. BROWN ARGUES CASES BEFORE TREASURY DEPT. Attorney Daniel L. Brown of Boston, son of Judge and Mrs. Lucius Brown, was a visitor at his home on Warren street Wednesday while on his way to his of- fice in Boston from Washington. D. C. Mr. Brown has specialized in Federal taxation law and has been in Wash- ington arguing some taxation cases be- fore the treasury department. Among these were two cases involving local cor- porations for which he is counsel, and for whom he expects to get refunds to- taling about $50,000 for over-pavment ! of taxes which arose from the fact that| their tax returns were made out by peo- ple not sufficiently familiar with the many technicalities of the law to avall themselves of all the advantages te Wwhich they were entitled under it. Mr. Brown says that the treasury de- partment is completely swamped with in- come and profits tax returns and is over two years behind in examining and in checking them up. A special appropria- tion of $12.000,000 Thas been asked to| expand the force to a size large enough to handle this immense task, as it estimated that an examination of these returns will show nearly a billion dol- lars due the United States, which can not be collected on account of Inade- quacy of the present force to handle this great pumber of returns. FHe be- lieves that a substantial apprepriation will be granted and that soon or| later those who have innocently or inten- tionally avoided paving the United States the proper amount of tax which | they should, will be made to pay in full| —as ‘the government has six vears after the date of the filing of the return In which to question its correctness.
