NORWICH, CON NORWICH BIRTHS SHOW POLISH LEAD IN CHILOREN OF FOREIGN PARENTAGL | AMAZED AT CHANGE —_————— Names that indicate Polish, Italian, Greek, Russian or other Enropean fam- ily trees that have been appearing with increasing frequency in Norwich real estate records and in school records in the past few years jhave pointed out the change going on in the com- position of the residents and citizen- ship of the town. K Birth records from the town clerk’s office show also that foreign born par- ents are giving us more new- citizens' than are the native born parents. Tak- ing three months of this year, March, April and May, the town records show that 4 per cent of the children born in that time were of parents who are both foreign born. In the same time the births in which both parents were na- tive born were 42.65 per cent. of the total. There were 211 births’ recorded in these three months. In 90 of these births both parents were native born, in 95 both parents were foreign bornm, and in 26 either father or mpther was foreign born. If the same rate is main- tained for the year there will be ap- proximately 360 children of native born parents and 380 children of foreign born parents. The following gives the statistics by months: TR o Ay Norwich Birth Statisties, g e Parents native born 30 27 Parents foreign born 31 31 1 p.c. foreign born..

CLAIMS NEW HAVEN ROAD CHARGED EXCESSIVE RATES Declaring that they were overcharged by the railroads of the United States, and particularly by the New Haven road, and their claims iznored by the parties con- cerned, the Collins company, with plants and offices in the village of Collinsville, town of Canton, has brought suit iin the United States district court. Damages to the amount of $12.000 are asked of the director-general of the railroads of the United States and $6,500 is asked of the New Haven road. According to the complaint, the Collins company claims it sent carloads of mer- chan by rail, figuring on the rate classification which is required by the in- terstate commerce. When bills were ren- dered the plaintiff claims that they were charged far in excess of the amount they expected to pay, and when demand was made upon the railroads for a rebate it was refused and the claim ignored. The writs are returnable on the first Monday in August, when they will be heard before Judge Thomas in the U. S. district court in Hartford.
