GROTON AUTHORITIES TO ENFORCE MOTOR LAWS “Wholesale violations for automobile laws in Groton have resulted in the summoning into court in that town at next Monday's session of more than a dozen autoists on charges of reckless driving and minor violations of the statutes. Besides the fatal smashup of Wednesday morning, two other mo- tor accidents have been reported and Captain George O. Vincent on Wednes- day issued an order to the effect that it will go hard with any autoists who attempts to make more than 10 miles an hour, the maximum rate of speed w between the centre of the borough and Eastern Point. Wednesday morning at 9:30, a gov- ernment Ford truck driven by a marine which was coming south, left the high- way at a point near Pleasant valiey road, was pitched into rocks and the machine badly damaged about the| front. No one was injured. Major Kingsbury of the marine corps de- tachment at the base, in reporting the ! accident to the police, charged that the governmeat vehicle was crowded from the road by a Thames Coal Co. truck d. en by W. C. Hanson. He is seeking Prosecutor Warren B. Bur- rows to take up the case with him. The other accident was staged late Tuesday evening in the Poquonnoc road near the old race track and thi: morning a Ford straddling a stone wall vas seen. The car had a Rhode Is- land license plate, and so far as could be learned from residents of the Po- quonnoc section, its driver, a man from Warwick had abandoned the machine. COUNTY FARM BUREAU PLANNING FIELD DAY The New London county farm bureau is planning to hold a field day during the last week in August. A definite date has not yet been set. A field day committee has been ap- pointed to shape up the plans. There will be sports for old and young, and a dem- onstration, probably tractor or dairy Jjudging. With reference to the testing of soil samples by the experiment station, the farm bureau bulletin says: How many farmers in this county have ever taken the trouble to have samples of soil from their farms tested for lime re- quirements? Not so long ago a farmer in another county had two soil samples taken by the county agent. They were se- cured from fields Iving side by side with only the main highway dividing them. When this farmer received a report on these samples. one field required one and a half tons of limestone per acre, while the other required four tons per acre. This is one of the many ways in which the New London county farm bureau can assist the farmers of this county. Anyone desiring ot know how much lime to apply per acre should take a sample from five or six different places in the field and send to the farm bureau office. One or two pounds of soil is all that is required so0 long as it is renresentative of the field. For obtaining the sample, an old auger is an ideal instrument. Met Norwich Boy on Mexican Border While _traveling along the Mexican border this month Arthur E. Lindberg, a former Norwich boy now at El Pas Texas, met Fred Lathrop, another Norwich boy at Tijuiamo, a small Mexican town located on the border.

Chamber Indorses Claiming that the practice of choking Americanism down a man’s throat will never make loyal citizens, Frank J. Raymond of the Inter-racial council, New York, gave the members of the Norwich chamber of commerce, gather- ed in open meeting Wednesday evening at the Community Center Girls’ club hall on Main street, a new phase of the great work now being pushed forward throughout the country to bring about abilization of industry. z At the close of Mr. Raymonds highly interesting and most instructive ad- dress the chamber of commerce went on record as indorsing the work of the Inter-racial council. After the meeting members of the chamber are quoted as saying that Mr. Raymonds address was one of the most inspiring addresses heara here this year. The meeting was presided over by President Charles F. Wells and opened with a fifteen minute community sing led by Edwin Hill, general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. The chamber then voted to hold an annual picnic this summer and the date and arrange- ments were left in the hands of a com- mittee to be appointed by the chair. 1t was voted to invite the New London chamber of commerce and the Norwich and New London Rotary clubs to join the local chamber as guests at the pic- nie. As a preliminary to the address of the evening President Wells read the following quotation from John Wana- maker on The Last Swift-flying Years of a Mans Life. : The last swift flying years of a man’s life ought to be the best if blest with fairly good health. His past experiences have taught him much and they reflect light by which he may see more clearly the most important things to be done. Wiiiam and John Penn, Franklin and his associates, the first president and his noble wife, Martha Custi: Washington, and the members of the firs: cabinet of President Washington and their families all helped to budd ishable foundations for o y is what its men have heen. s a personal and practical ap- plication of the one all pervading thought of the foregoing, why shou.d not the mercantile and manufacturing ress men, individually resolve to upheep, enlarge, perfect, and complete their enterprises, to the betterment of the city? Mr. Wells introduced as the spealker of the even.ug, Frank J. Raymond of the Tnter-racial Council of New Yark The speaker emphasized the fact that the vital concern of America and of the world today is to obtain a sufficient sup- ply of staple products. The —extreme scarcity of workersand lack of enthusi- asm and good, steady work are acting as brakes which retard industrial progress and make it impossible to satisfy the ever-increasing demand for goods. M. Raymond stated oh account of the war immigration had been almost complete- Iy cut off : as a consequence. We are short some 4,000,000 people. Added to that, a the productive capacity per man per hour is less than in 1914, He insisted that We cannot maintain our commercial position among the nations unless some source is found from which our farms and factories may draw substantial la- borers to do the heavy work. Already, movement is well under way among the American manufacturers to take over Burope's idle worshops in which to turn our raw materials into marketable pro- working hours have been cut down, and Inter-Racial Council ducts. The great number of unempioyed in_countries overseas is the reason. Mr. Raymond said there was a large! volume of foreign born going back to| Europe. They are made up mostly of. able-bodied males. * They are carrying| away from $2,000 to $3,000 each. It is! true that immigration is exceeding emi- gration now, but those coming in are almost entirely women, old men and chil- dren and few hardy laborers are to be found. Last year, of those who left 94 per cent. were producers, while of those who came in, 24 out of every 100 cannot work. Thus helping to further de- crease our dwindling manpower and in- crease the number of non-producing con- sumers. While the present immigration tend to keep out the hard-working thoush in a number of cases illiterate peasant farmers of Europe, the speaker said, Canada, Brazil, Argentina and oth- er countries are offering all kinds of in- ducements to immigrants. Our legisla- tors seem to forget that America’s basic industries are made possible by the ef- forts of some 30,000,000 or more people o fforeign extraction who do the heavy work which American born people are un- willing to do. He said the Inter-racial Council. an organization composed of some 700 of the largest industries in Connecticut and other state, is working to overcome this situation. Through the columns of the foreign language press, serving some §,- 000,000 readers, and throush the movies and other me: t is endeavoring to give foreign born peNle a better understand- ing of America, to keep them from re- turning to the old countries, and to sat- isfactorily answer the arguments of the agitator and revolutionist. He explain- ed the great work the council is pushing forward to revise our immigration policy along constructive lines and on a selec- tive basis. Mr. Ravmond seemed to reach out and talk ind ually to each of the large as- sembly of men. He illustrated his talk with many apt smiles and stories that brought down the house in roars of laughter. He pointed out that to accom- plish what we want we must use what we have, and to win in the fight for pro- duction all must get their shoulders to the wheel—and win. ‘We must awaken the foreign born to a genuine realization of the principles our country stands for, and to provide through a selective im- migration the new citizens which our farms and factories stand in such great need.
