Rumors of continued activity on the
part of the state police In their 'am-
paign ‘ against the popular beverage
called "flrabapple Compound." filled
the air today. They were repurted In
New Canaan, and later a report came
in that they were over .in Norolon

of the law but the man who answers
the 'phone til the bottling works said
it wasn't true. He. had heard of the
presence of the state policeln New Cu

any arrests. He was asked if crab
apple compound was not sold freely
in New Canaan without any attempt
at concealment or secrec.y .inst as are

Iingvthe question nilsuutlnrslooti. the
questioner repealed it and there was
another period of silence, and then the
man at the bottling works Haiti tWo
wagons had gone down to the village
of New Canaan. and they had
brought back no rcporls of anyone
being arrested, The inquisitive follow
