Because of our well known policy to carry over no Hat from one season to another, we have divided all of our TRIMMED WINTER HATS into two lots for quick clearance.

Yet it is being done right here in Windham cous- ty, done regularly and without any ex- cuse or apologies. The stage -has been reached where many law abiding people are beginning to resent what good lawyers say is mn- ‘warranted interference with their rights as citizens. The police of the city of Willimantic are particular offenders In this respect; in fact, most of the pro- tests heard in this section of the county are relative to the operations of the Willimantic police in their zeal to cateh booze runmers who bave been operating throngh that city. According to lawyers whii were inter- viewed on the subject, the wacred Eigh- teenth amendment and sunctified Vol stead act do not wholly remove the constitutional rights of a cit’zen, one of whom with some grit in his crop may . . o decid f the days to test the The response to our reductions in the High-Grade Mer- | iccide one of these dase to contest the } I. in CLOAK llla SU" DEAR hl! been ating in some cities and let fhe courts say just where the lmit is in actions of the kind discussed. One very good lawyer gave it as his opinion that thece must be, first, a well grounded reason for belleving that a particular automobile i3 transporting liquor dllegally and second, that warramt for the person driving the car must be possessed by an officer pefore he has any legal right to halt it and institute search. . In this era of nightly hold-ups and carnival of crime of every sort few op- erators of automobiles relish being ab- ruptly halted by strangers at night and in jsolated sertions of cities or while touring through outlying country. This opinion is freely expressed here and im surrounding towns. No reasonable driver will' resent, howrever, halting for an of- ficer when the Jriver)s certain that the wman who halts him really is an official. There are many govl and law-abiding citizens who dw cbject, and very positive- ly, to having oificers rummaging through thefr cars and personal luggage, and she suggestion hay been made that the at- torney general rul> on the right of of- ficers who ace without specific warrants to do this thing. A TDanielson attorney ard a member of the legislature from a nearby town ‘were among the people from this section who have been halted at night this week by the pollce of Willimantic, op- erating witnin the city limits. The at- torney has vuiced no protest, but is one of those who expressed his opinion that the police had no right to stop the car in which he was riding, no more than they would have to stop the car of any other person who was under suspicion of engaging in illegal transportation of liquor; of which, by the way, there wasn't even a memory in the attorney’s car, which Wwas stopped not because of any violation of the metor vehicle laws, but to look it over for. liquor. very gratifying, but why shouldn’t it be- when one can now buy, for example :— \ ] LADIES’ SUITS that sold for $49.00 ......
