’ Passes in pursuit sent word to Hart-
ford to the state police. They. in turn
notified the pollen drpartments of all
towns along the border to watch for
the men. A guard was thrown about

ing from New York ware closely pa-
trolled.

of the stolen Ford car saw him. they
stopped the car and ran into the
woods. from which they opened fire
on the Sheriff's party. Return shots
from revolvers and rifles were sent

woods stopped.

They found three men waiting for

was surrounded as a preliminary to a.
careful search. Under Sheriff Close
and a posse from Poughkeepsie, in-
cluding Policeman Chester Phelps and
Detective Leadbltter. arrived just as
the three captives were brought out of
the woods.

DISCUSS SUNDAY
SCHOOLS AND
MODERN YOUTH

HAHNRD. Aprih 12.—

The District Institute of the Fair-
tleld County Sunday School Associao
tion met Tuesday afternoon and evé
ening at the Universalist 'church.

Edward 0. Thorpe was toastmastcr
at the dinner. He read from a news-
paper article a. statement of Rev.’
William E. Gardner, secretary of the
Board of Religious Education?“ the
Episcopal church. that the Sunday
School has outlived its usefulness. and
suggested that a forum be held for
the purpose of testing the “tenant
of the Episcopalian. Warren F.
Creeey. lawyer and superintendent of
the Sunday School of the Stamford
Methodist Church stated his views.

He declared that Dr. Gardner was
looking at the Sunday School from
the outside and not from the inside.
He spoke of the large number com-
ing into the church from the Sun-
day School, and gave some very in-
teresting figures from his own church.

"We read of the flapper of today
and of the freedom to live a young
life." said Mr. Cressy. "but if you
lock o‘er the boys and girls in Sun-
day Schools you will find they are
serious and thoughtful. I should not
think of giving up the Sunday School
until we are shown something to 'take
its place."

Mr. ’l‘horp said: "I was using the
shock method of teaching. for I
quoted only part of what Dr. Gard-
iier said. He said the Sunday School
was outllving its usefulness as re.
gards a. session on Sunday. He was in
favor of week-day sessions and of
more sessions."

Rev. Alfred Grant Walton spoke
next and said that. Sunday
should be made much stronger. Rev.
S. J. Evers. of Glenbrook. said the
Sunday School ought to discover the
child, as Christ discovered the child.

Rev. Henry Hallam Tweedy. of the
Yale School of Religion. took a hope-
ful view of the religion of young folks
of today. He buttressed his argu-
ment by citing his experience at
Rutgers College. Silver Bay and
Mount Holyoke College. He did not
fear for the future for the young. he
declared. but felt that the older ones
must give them the best in all things.
and that the response would be won-
dcrful.

“’ASIIINGTON. April 12.-—-Despite
serious handicaps during the past few

 

 

 

its stability and. in the words of a
Department of Interior announce-
ment. is riding once more on an even
keel "like a ship righting herself after
a. terrible gale."

The forecast of smooth sailing
ahead is based on the report of the
collector of customs at Juneau, Just
received in Washington.

"The year Just closed with an in-
crease in the commerce of the ter-
ritory over 1921 of $20,800,401, and
with a healthy growth in practically
all the industries." says the state-
ment issued from the department
of Secretary \Vork. "Exports from
the territory of Alaska more than
double the imports. leaving the bal-
ance of trade in Alaska’s favor by a
handsome margin.

"The outstanding increase in value
of shipments to the United States is
shown in canned salmon. both as to
the number of pounds and value.

"In spite of serious gold mining
reverses during the past few years.
the mineral output of the territory
for 1922 was approximately 818,000.-
000. or an increase over 1921 of
more than $1,000,000.

"The shipment of sawed lumber

from Alaska to the United States.
and also for exports to foreign coun-
tries. is most gratifying. During 1922
lumber was loaded direct on vessels
for export trade.
\ "The possibility of increased oil de-
velopment in Alaska was most prom-
ising at the close of 1922. The oil
wells of the Katalin fields produced
steadily during 1922 and their refined
product found ready markets within
the territory.

"The travel movement. as shown in
the statement of arrivals and de-
partures. discloses a. pleasing in-
crease in Ravel to Alaska from the
States. While the departures from
Alaska are in excess of the arrivals.
it is not believed that this indicates
any falling oi! in population. but
rather is due to the fact that the res-
idents of the interior are taking ad-
vantage of the

SPRING CEREMONIAL
OF PYRAMID TEMPLE,
NEW HAVEN. MAY 5

NEW HAVEN. April It ~Plans for
the spring ceremonial of Pyramid
Temple. Nobles of the Mystic Shrine.
to be held in this city on Saturday.
May 5th. are now being matured fol—
lowing a visit of Illustrious Potentate
Joseph P. Frisbie. Record Frederic
A. Bartlett and members of the
Bridgeport committees here last
week.

The ceremony will be in the Arena.
one of the largest buildings in the
state available, and the biggest place
the Pyramid has ever had to put on
a ceremony. In the words of Poten-
tata Frisbie the Arena “has it all
over the million dolla rpier at At-
lantlo City." ’The permanent seating
arrangements in the Arena are over
3,000. and th‘e floor space is big
enough to allow all the patrols and
bands to Us massed in one grand
body for ceremony. The floor space
is 200 feet long and 80 feet wide. un-
obstructed. and capable‘ of being
transformed into a very attractive
desert over which the neophytes that
night will cross. The Arena will be
transformed into an oriental palace.

Invitations to be present as temples
have been accepted by Sphinx of
Hartford. Melba of Springfield. and
Palestine of Providence. Out of the
ten New England temples, Sal-
aam of Newark and Crescent of Tem-
ple will attend with their bands.
while delegations will come from Kis-
met of Brooklyn. Cyprus of Albany.
Mecca of New York. Aleppo of Boa-
ton. Kora of Lewiston. Bektarh of
Concord.°N. B.. and Cairo of But-
land. Vt. Most of ” these temples
would have'come in a. special train to
make this ceremonial the biggest one
in New England in years but for the
fact that a number of‘amngirlt to
travel to Washington a month later

REJECTS CHANGE
[N MOVIE LAW

HARTFORD. April 11.—The Sen-
ate rejected an amended bill provid-
ing that children under 14 or girls
under 16 shall not be admitted at
night to motion picture theatres un-
lem accompanied by an older per-
son.

Senator Brooks introduced an
amendment providing that the older
person must be authorized by a. par-
ent or guardian. He declared that
permitting any adult to accompany
a child Would be harmful. He said
the present law was adequate. Sena.-
tor De Peyster also declared that the
accompanying adult should be auth-
ortzed.

Senator Wilder.
that the question
had caused the' present
come inoperative.

Senator Ella explained that the bill
simply changed the law which now
requires written authorization. He
opposed the amendment. declaring
that it would make the bill read ex-
actly as the law now stands.

The amendment was carried by a
vote of 17 to 12 and a moment later.
on motion of Senator Brooks the
amended bill was rejected.

This leaves the present law in
force requiring written authorization
on the part of an adult accompany-

 

 

howevsr. declared
of authorization
law to be-

‘ ing a child.

The Senate passed in concurrence
a bill providing that instruction in
all schools shall be in the English
tongue. but permitting instruction in
a. foreign language one hour s. day.

Senator Bakewell declared there
were at least six schools in the state
where instruction was wholly in a
foreign tongue. He also snorted that
in these schools primary allegiance
to a foreign land was being taught.

Report bad it this morning that

the salaries paid to war veterans of

taken as a. cenccasion to the bitter

.It was the insistence of the laborites.
supported by many members of other

GREAT STRIDE FOR
WORLD PEACE IS
TAKEN BY BRITAIN

LONDON. April tl—England has
taken another great stride toward
permanent world peace.

A recent order for twenty monster
tanks. capable of traveling at 25
miles an hour with a huge held gun
perched on top and ready for action.
is interpreted as one of the most:
worthwhile peace persuaders yet‘
evolved.

Until other countries are able to
match these monsters with tanks as
formidable. it is believed England
will be forced to use them in theor-
etical manoeuvres only.
