Fitzgerald of New Haven, who is the democratic candidate for governor, and Thpmas J. Spellacy of Hartford, candidate for United States senator, were the principal speakers at a party rally in this city Saturday night that filled the town hall to its seating capacity. Mrs. Josepha Whitney of New Haven had a place on the programme with the candidates, speaking particu- {1arly to the women. Preceding the enthusiastic rally there was a band concert from § to 8.30 by Tubbs' band at the Wauregan corner and at 8.30 the band led the way to the town hall with members of the Young Men's democratic club and the party leaders parading with them. Mayor Milo R. Waters was chairman of the rally, introducing Mrs, Whitney as the first speaker. She was given a warm welcome and proceeded to speak briefly of some of the things of interest to wo- men in the campaign. She charged that the republican state platform had failed the women and children. She congrat- ulated the Norwich democratic women upon the club they had formed and wish- {ed it suecess and she declared that she was in favor of old age pension and ot taking the tax off of gasoline. She urgea | her audience to work for the best canai- | dates and the best principles and to im- | prove the old state of Connecticut by tak- ing part in it Oandidate Fitzgerald Speaks Mayor Fitzgerald was introduced by Mayor Waters and arose to speak amid a thunder of applause. He said he sensed a feeling of victory in the air for the democratic party. He went on to speak of J. Henry Roraback and the Comnec- ticut Light and Power Co. worth over $20,000,000, to which he said valuable rights had been given away, going for the personal aggrandizement of Mr. Ror- aback. Mr. Fitzgerald read an extraet from the republican state platform, which re- ferred to the “accumulated mess” that had been left by the democrats in the eight years up to March 4, 1921, and he went on to quote figures to show that exports increased at an amazing rate from 1913 to 1920, when they were 12 billion 500 million and the United States was in the golden period of its history, At the same time the wealth of the natién grew from 185 billion to 300 billion, while he said that in the first 17 months of republican control of the government the wealth of the nation had decreased and the showing of a reduction in the na- tional debt had been made by charging balances and salvaging war material. Attacking the record -of the last con- gress and reading numerous newspaper criticisms of it, Mr. Fitsgerald said it was charged with being the worst con- gress wo have ever had. He spoke of President Harding's veto of the soldier bill and criticised him sharply for sign- ing the tariff bill that would .put a burden of biMtions on the people. FHe claimed the republicans were inconsistent when Pres- ident Harding vetoed the soldier bonus, but three billions dollars worth of ships are sold for 250 million and the purchas- ers aro given 75 million for ten years to operato them tax free. Speaking of the state of Connecticut, .Mr. Fitzgerald said that the republicans had declared for a pay as you go policy, but he charged that for the three years up to July 1, 1922 the expenditures had exceeded the imcome by six million dob lars. The legislature of 1921 taxed ev- erything it could, the small - business man, gasoline, all adding to the high cost of living. I'd stop that, said Mr. Fitzgerald, and get something out of Mr. Roraback’s twenty million Connecticut Light and Power companw. He said he would, if elected governor, see that the state took care of the mentally deficient children and he would do what he could to decrcase the taxation. Will Ask Questions ‘The speaker declared that he proposed to ask Senator McLean and other repub- lican candidates a lot of questions and he gave them warning to be prepared. He predicted that J, Hemry Roraback will not let the republican candidates an- jswer for fear of disclosures that will wreck the party worse than the demo- crats hope to wreck it. Sematorial Candldate Speaks Mayor Waters introduced Mr. Spellacy as a fighter and the candidate for S, senator opened his speech by charging that the republicans had changed their minds about this being a no-speaking campaign and that they were bringing in their heavy artillery for the campaign. Mr. Spellacy said that there were many things he might talk about, including the Volstead law and some others, but he would speak on the tariff. The demo- cratic candidates are not free traders. They believe in a tarift that will equalize the cost of foreign-made articles with the cost in this country. He demounced the Fordney-McCumber tariff as a robber | tariff and an aid to profiteering. Tnder the republican administration of the last 13 months, said Mr. Spel- lacy, there had been five million out of emplayment, more bank faitures and more business failures than ever before, If a republican tariff were essential to prosperity, he wanted to ask why it YANTIC STATION AGENT PUNCTURES WRECK STOEY In an interview by a Bulletin Teporter with Telegraph Operator Hermon J. Gibbs of the Yantic station of the Cen- tral Vermont railway, Sunday evenig, the widely circulated story of the near railroad wreck on the Central Vermont railroad, between Yantic and Lebanon was found to be almost entirely without foundation, the near wreck referred to in the news articles having taking place on_ September 2nd. In his interview Operator Gibbs said that on Scptember 2nd at 12.50 pas- senger train, northbound, arrived at Yantic and departed on time. Soon af- ter it had left he received a telegraph message- from the despatcher at New London to the effect that a light engime, southbound, had passed Lebanon, and to hold the passenger at' Yantic. He immediately called the Norwich tele- phone operator and wot the ~home of Charles Frink at Franklin asking him to flag the passenger. Mr. Frink did so. To make doubly sure a call was sent {o Mrs. William Murphy further up the track for the same purpose. Mrs. Murphy rushed to the track and found that the passenger train had been stop- der just below her home. In the meantime the light engine which had passed Lebanon had pulled back into a siding just south of the sta- tion and was waiting for the passenger. The conductor of the train went to the Murphy home and after finding every- thing clear proceeded to Lebanon whers he passed the light engime. There Was no exeitement on the train, the passengers not knowimg the cause of thé unusual stop. The railroad com- pany had cleared up the matter and be- lieved it was only known {o a few unti] the press story from Hartford started many people into Wt the “near - accident” had Friday. Operator Gibbs in his Fview 5 wasn't passed until September. The tar- iff, he said, was the only platform prom- ise that the republicans had kept, and it has been berated by half the newspapers of the country as the worst tariff ever. Whatever we wear, eat or use is mention- ed in the tariff. - Sugar and Wool Taking up the duty on sugar, the speaker said that Senator Smoot of Utah had forced a duty onm. sugar that will add from 2 to 4 cents a pound on the sugar the people have to buy. The Mor- mon church controls two-thirds of the beet sugar industry .and Smoot had toid Crowder to tell the Cuban sugar raisers to limit their crop on the threat of a high duty against Cuban sugar. It is not for the enrichment of the government of the United States, but all for the en- Tichment of the Utah-ldaho Sugar Re- fining Co. Mr. Spellacy mext teok up the duty on wool. Semator Booding of Idaho, known as the greatest shepherd since Abraham, had insisted upon a duty of 31 cents on wool with the threat that unless it were granted he would vote against the entire tariff bill and there weuld be no bill passed. The other sen- ators surrendered and the result is that the duty will make it impossible for the average man to buy an all-wool suit. Mr. Spellacy declared that a woolen manufacturer’s association had written a letter saying that the tariff will compel the substitution of shoddy and cotton in the goods they manufacture and that they will be obliged to shut down their mills_because there will be no market for the goods they will manufacture at the prices they will bave to charge. Under the Fordney-McCumber tariff, said Mr. Spellacy, we are building a tarift wall so high that no foreign goods can be shipped in and we will be shut out of the markets of the world. I be- lieve we are facing perilous times, de- clared Mr. Spellacy, and if America can- not ship out its manufactured products we are face to face with an industrial depression such as we have never seem before. I want to See the people pros- perous and happy. Canada has already passed legisiation against American man- ufacturers. Cuba is threatening a tar- iff against American shoes. America has two-thirds of .the gold of the world, but the other nations can’t buy our products or exchange wit htheirs it we shut them out by a tariff wall. We don’t put a duty on some things such as gloves that are not made in this country. I appeal to you to vote for the principles that will mean the uplift and the triumph and the prosperity of America. Mr. Spellacy was frequently applauded throughout his speech and the rally came to a close at 10.15 with the final words of his address, after which many came up to the desk to shake hands with the two candidates. SHATTERS LEFT ARM WHILE OUT HUNTING SATURDAY ‘While hunting Saturday _afternoon about 3 o'clock mear his home on the Scotland road, Charles Lillibridge, 17, accidentally shot Mimself im the Ibt arm, which was so badly shattered that it had to be amputated about four inches below the shoulder. The young man, who is the som of Mrs. Susan Lillibridge of Scotland road, showed remarkable perve after the ac- cident. Staunching the blood the best he could he walked to his own home to get help, but nobody was there. He then went on to another relative's, but found out there and he then reached the home of Selectman Charles P. Bustmell from which he was taken at once to the Backus hospital by Her- bert Bushnell. At the hospital it wa# found necessary to amputate the arm. Mr. Lillibridge stood the shock well and his condition is considered as satisfac- tory as can be expected. His mother, who is a trained nurse, was in Jewett City at the time, but came here as soon as she was notified of the accident, later returning to Jewett City where she is th charge of a wmick case, WEDDINGS. Tracy—Johnsen. John C. Tracy, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Tracy of 71 Lafayette street. and Miss Corinne P, Johnson, daughter of Mr. and Mra John Johnsom of 31 Yerrington avenue, were united in marriage Satur- day afternoon at 4 O'clock at the United Congregational chmrch by Rev. Alexan der H. Abbott, pastor. The matron of honor was Mrs. Osear Heinrich, and the best man Frederick Kingsley of Yantic. The ushers were Carl G. Johnson of Nor- wich and Hibberd N. Alexander of New London. Previous to the wedding, Miss Louise Fuiler rendered the following program on the organ: Pastoral. Sodorinski; At Sunset, Diggle; Gioria in Bxcelsis, Mo- zart; Folk Soung, Torjussen; Chant d'Amour, Gillett. At the processional Miss Fuller played the bridal chorus from Lohengrin and for the recessional the Mendelssohn Wedding March. During the ceremony Caatilene Nuptial by Du- bois was rendered. Following the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride om Yerrington avenue. After a wedding tour, the couple will reside at the Hotel Victoria, Hartford. The brids was for- merly employed as stenographer at the Norwich Belt Manufacturing company. The floral decorations at the church and house were by Geduldig. Hanks—Shaw, A pretty wedding took place Satur- day evening when Miss Bessio B. Shaw, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William F. Shaw of 110 Central avenue, became the bride of Edwin M. H: son of Wiliam Hanks and the late Carrie B. Hanks of Old Mystic. Rev. Charles H. Ricketts, pastor of REPORTS ON BAPTIST AID s TO DESTITUTE EUROPEA AS you do unto the least of these, my breihren, you do it unto Me; let us all 1y 1o give and give plenty to the “Rush # Ship to Russia” movement that is be- ing conducted by. the Baptists of the Northern Taptist convention, to send over to the starving and scantily-clad peoples of central and northern Europe, thousands of garments, blankets, and other things too numerous to mention, was the request of Rev. William P. Lip- phard of New York city made to Bap- tists Sunday cvening at the Central Bap- tist chureh to hear a report of the suc- cess last winter of the Baptist move- ment of sending a Ship of Fellowship to the needy in Europe. It was a pitiful sight that met the ey of those who made up the distribution party last fall, that took the garments, blankets, toys and other articles over- seas to distribute free of charge among the thousands of starving people of Rus- sia, Poland, Germany, France, Czecho- Slovakia, Latavia, and other small coun- tries of central and northern Europe. The movement among the Baptists was a great one undertaken last fall when every chufch Wwas asked to contribute clothing er articles to the association, and when the time arrived in our big ‘warehouses in New York there were 12~ 000 packages coming from 4,000 Baptist churches of the Northern Conventiod. These packages were opened. the con- tents sorted out, packed by classification, and then baled. These bales which num- bered 1,756 in all, contained in some cases, as many as 953 garments each. When ail was ready they were stored in the hold of S. S. Estomia, the cargo all in bales, if piled one on the other, equal o 2 height of half a mile. In this car- g0 were over 30,000 pairs of shoes, over 50,000 garments for men, and 100,000 garments for women, with as many more for children. In addition there were barrels of toys and 110 barrels of soap. It may have seemed hard to think that soap would mean anything but when you learn that thousands in those coun- tries had not seen any soap for several years, its worth is great. Thousands who had been used to having soap had been forced to depend entirely for cleansing on sand and powders, that were home made. Leaving New York our ship sailed across the Atlantic, said Dr. Lipphard, and through the Kiel canal, the first city on our landing schedule being Danzig. Here we loaded seven Polish freight cars with bales and sent men to guard over each car. It was here that we saw the first signs of poverty and starvation. There was no milk in the city and a Baptist minister who had children could INCIDENTS IN SOCIETY Mrs. James L. Case has returned trom New Hartford where she attended the Heath-Jones wedding. Mr. and Mrs, E. Y. Messenger of Church street are on a motor trip to Washington ,D. C. with friends. After a two weeks' stay at Atlantic City, Mrs. Channing M. Huntington and daughter, Mrs. Joseph C., Worth re- turned Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Shepard B. Palmer left Saturday by auto for Welledley, Mass., where they spent Sunday with their daughter, Miss Sybil Paimer who is a freshman at Wellesley college, On Saturday Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Z. Haviland and little son, Theodore Z. Haviland, Jr., returned to their home in Paterson, N. J., after spending sev- eral weeks with Mrs. Haviland's par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Norris S. Lippitt at Neptune Park, New London. Mr. and Mrs, Lippitt are remaining for an ex- tended stay at their cottage. BANDITS ARE READY TO PLUNDER VLADISTOK not obtain any although he had tickets in his pocket two months old. There was simply no milk to be had. I invited my helpers to the cabin and when they left 1 gave them cach an orange. Did they eat it, no, they took it home and on Christmas, which was not far distant they were planning to give it to their wives, a priceless present. This is an evidence of poverty in its worst state. After distributing from there we went to Libau, Russia. Here was starvation and poverty all about us. Bolsheviks had robbed the eople of ail they possessed. We had with us thousands of shoes, the American kind, pointed toes and high hesls. There was no_chance to distrib- ute them among the Russian women, so we had the ends cut off, new tips put on, the heels lowerod and gave them to the children, not a shoe being wasted. Near- by we clothed the people, nearly 140, all lepers, also the Baptist minister who weekly goes among them preaching the gospel. We were given a fine’ present here for the government let our goods in tax free, a saving of $130,000 In American money, or 53,000,000 rubles in Russian money. In Russia it was pitiful, children, fac- es pinched, poorly clothed, hungry all about_came to us for aid and received it. The weather was 10 below zero and here were these people, no heat for their houses, no food, wearing rags for shoes, and rags for clothes. When they received clothing and other things they needed from us, the sight was pitiful tears of joy rolled down their cheeks, they kissed our hands, and could not thank us enough for our gifts, from American Baptists to fellow Baptista and others in Rusyia. In the market place could be seen the condition.

In Riga we met a Baptist minister who had been taken by the boisheviks and exiled to Siberia for three years. We had to clothe him before we could take his picture. And his photographs taken before and after his exile show what Russia had done to him. In ome he is young and in the best of health, in the second, an old man, haggard and weak. Here we saw the Christian work undertaken by Hoover. So much has the A. M. A. dome for the suffering in Europe that in Russia the letters A. M. A., have become a word in their language. There they were feeding over 17,000 people a day, and vet failing to reach all who were in need. We went to the Baptist Seminary there and left blankets. Here we met Tokio, Oct. 22 (By the A. P)—The danger to residents of Viadivostok after the approaching cvacuation of the Jap- anese forces takes place arises from the presence around the city of bandits who are ready to plunder Vladivostok in the interim between the departure of the Japanese and the occupation by the Red army of the Chita government, accord- ing to persons who arrived today from Viadivostok. 1t is feared that the Chita govern- ment has not sufficient troops present to cope with the many bandits threat- ening the city. The danger is believed 50 great that all steamers leaving Viad- jvostok are crowded. Vessels leaving for Japan are so crowded with Japan- ese that few other foreigners can ob- tain passage. Most Russians wishing to go to Japan are unable to procure vises to passports becauze they have insuffictent money to meet the requirements of the immigra- tion laws. Russian steamers are tak- ing @ few Russians, chiefly officers and their families to China. Others who feared in Vladivostok are trying to es- cape by any means possible toward Ko- rea and Manchuria. MONUMENT UNVEILED IN THE CAURES WOOD Verdun, Oct. (By the A. P)—A monument erected in the Caures wood to the memory of the men of the 56th and 59th battalions of the Chasseurs, at the foot of which are interned the bodies of Colonel Driant and eleven un- known Chasseurs, was unveiled today in the presence of Minister of War War Maginot, M. Maginot recalled the days when he was a sergeant leading a palfrol and came into contact with Driant and his men and learned how the men worship- ped_their commander, “Let us not listen,” said the minis- ter, “to those who would disarm us, be- lieving thus they serve pacific ends in- stead of realizing that a France mili- tarily strong (certain recent events have proved it) is the surest guarantee for peace. - Let us remain strong, gen- tlemen, as Driant wished. Let us not weaken or demoralize our army which rempins, despite the vicious attacks of those seeking to undermine everything in this country, the great school for na- tional duty. Let us remain strong, if only to maintain peace and guard vie- tory.” INFECTED MEMBERS OF HER FAMILY WITH TYPHOID GEEMS Dr. John E. Frye, president of the sem- inery. He was greatly in need. Bolshe- viks had visited his home and taken everything but a quantity of black bread. This was wormy, but for days Dr. Frye and family had to sit at the table, where he offered thanks to God, and then he turned off the Illights that his family might eat the bread without seeing the worms. From there we went into France, Ger- any, and other countries delivering our clothing. In Poland we reached a boy and did everything to save him but he died within 24 hours of starvation and cold, an innocent victim of the war. Out of our entire shipment not ome article was lost or was wasted. We found out these most in need and when they called for their articles they were ready in a bundle. Women and children who had not smiled in years, smiled when they received their clothing they need- ed so greatly, and blessed the Baptists for their thought of poor stricken Europe. On the following summer when other Baptists went through Russia, on_one the Greeneville Congregational church, performed the ceremony at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Haslam, 33 Prospect street, uncle and aunt of the occasion 10,000 people crowded about 0 hear them talk the gospel, and after the service wouid come up and pointing to their garments tell them that the Baptists sent them. Abany, N. Oct. 22.—A woman who for more than 20 years has unwit- tingly and innocently infected with ty phoid germs members of her family and others in up-state cities, has been “trailed” by state and local health au- thorities, found ‘“positive” to test and Dut under restriction to prevent further contagion. Thirteen cases of the dis- ease may be traced to the woman, au- thorities say The first to be infected was a boarder who fell ill with typhoid in 1900. tho health department authorities said in reviewing the case. Since that time the woman has visited in the homes of her sons and daughters<in-law for varying periods, with the result that she has infected four sons-in-law, two sis- ters, the father and mother of one of th esoms-in-law, two grandsons and in- directly a nurse employed in one of the cames. The case is considered the mors remafkable that not one of the woman's own echildren, seven daughters and three soms, have contracted the disease.
