some years because of the terms of a"
lease they had given.

Following the closing of the hearing
Mayor Barton mid that by a bond
issue it would be some two years be-
fore this should be authorised. unless
by some special emergency the pre-‘
sent session of the Legidature could
be prevailed upon to pass it. 1

Samuel J. Kantor who had made
the offer of three feet of land for
widening purposes where he is erec-
ting his new building. sent a letter to
the council stating that because of a'
contract he had with the Government
for a new post office, site. he had.
started work and the foundation walls

 

were up. Should the city seems to"

widen and these walls be pushed back.
he expected that the city would pay
for the cost of new'wslis.

The next item in the public hear-
ings was the matter of widening
Washington street. Christian Swarts.
Charles E. Hoyt. Jaloph Davis Samuel
Roodner. Wlliam A. McMahon.
George P. Ellis and John D. Milne.
all spoke in favor of the widening and
the necessity for it at once. as did
Judge John H. Light.

Mr. Swat-ts told of the desire of
property owners on Washington street
to aid the city to effectively widen the
street. Mr. Milne said that Norwaik is
growing fast and that all of its main
streets should be widened. and that
there could be no better future invest-
ment than this.

Mr. Hoyt told of Washington street
merchants losing business because of
the traffic ordinance which prohibits
parking on one side of the street.
Should the street be widened it is be-
lieved that this congestion would be
lemened. It is necessary is get
down to the proposition of widening
the street now." said Mr. Hoyt.

Joseph Davis confirmed Mr. Hoyt's
words and acid that people came into
stores. not to shop. but simply to get
in and buy what they definitely had in
mind and get out again. because the
fear of being arrested for parking
hung over them.

Mr. Roodner said that the street
should be widened. and at once as
traffic on the street is greater and
that more people were using the
street. especially since theatre had
been opened on the street.

Mr. McMahon said he favored
Washington street being widened. but
was against a bond issue. He favored
the assessment plan instead.

By vote of the council, action on
the two hearings was laid over until
the next meeting of the council. to be
held next Tuesday evening. May tth.

Mayor Barton appointed John D.
Milne, Fred Gebhardt and Herbert
0. Pollard. a board of freeholders. on
the matter of the establishment of a
building line on both sides of Cather-

ino rt from Wilton avenue h Fair
fire Th, ‘9 nt‘mqts'xw'er. con-
firmed by the' ouncil.

'D. L. Davis Makes
Grave Charge

the name of the Davis-Pope Com-
pany. Incorporated.

The board of directors of the Davis-
.Popo Company has repudicatcd the
acts of Davis in eiecuting the checks
and notes and has so notified the de-
fendants. and has also stopped pay-
ments on all of the checks.

The injunction. which was granted
by Judge Wolfe. and the papers in
which were served by Deputy Sheriff
Edward B. Doulens. was obtained
through Keogh & Candec. as counsel
for the Davis-Pope company. and re-
'quests that the checks and notes

'2 given be declared void and that they
be delivered by the defendants for
cancellation. 85,000 damages are
[also claimed. and attachment of prop-
‘erty of the defendants for $10,000
was made yesterday.

The injunction also restrains tho
‘ defendants from negotiating or trans-
ferring the notes and checks. and calls
for a hearing in the case at the June

r. . 'term of the Superior Court at Bridge-

, According to the writ, the so-called
.fireement which was entered into
_, ”between the Davis-Pope company
,‘ ,-snd Bart. was a verbal one and was

.Aps-ll 31st. Bart demanded

§ . company his commimions due
U dads. and received from Davie

. of “0 in full settlement of

for commission to that

 

 

 

 

Radlow entered into an agreement
by the terms of which Radlow was to
have the exclusive sale of the stock
for a period of 80 days from date. on
the terms of a. commission of 865

on the sale of each unit of stock.
which unit was to consist of two
shares of preferred stock and one

share of no par value common stock.
and in addition a bonus of 810 a
unit. provided the sales amounted to

25,000 within the period of time
specified. or a bonus of 815 a unit if
the sales reached “0.000 within the
thirty days.

Hart was notified of the agreement
with Radlow. the writ states. and of-
fered no objection. Radlow was told
that Hart had previously tried to sell
stock. and said he had no objection
to his continuing. so long as Hart did
not attempt to interfere with his.
Radlow's clients.

On last Monday. April 10th. Hart
informed Davis that he had an oppor-
tunity to sell $50,000 preferred and
250 shares of no par value common
stock. and asked the plaintiff com-
pany to give him a letter of authori-
sation to make such a sale.

Davis. it is alleged. acting for the
Davis-Pope company. thereupon gave
Hart a letter dated April 80th. and
authorising him to sell said shares of
stock as per his request.

It was this lettor that caused the
meeting to be held in the Royal James
on Monday night. and the claims
made by both Hart and Radlow. that
contracts between them had been
broken. by his. Davis' acts. The in-
troduction of Attorney Kegeman and
Johnson. who it is aid is an a-oci-
ate of delow. was for the purpose.
it is believed. of lending a “semi—of-
flcial" air to the proceedings.

Yesterday afternoon. shortly before
3 o'olod. Constable Raynor Werme
served papers on the Central Trust
company. where the Davis-Pope
oompeuyhaeitsaococnt. in a suit
started salad the company. by Hart
and nadiow. for W of “.800.
The papers in the action. which were
returnable to the June tens of the
"parlor court. were drawn by Attor-
ney Hegeman. The are
claimed for an alleged of con-

'littlc introduction to people here or
'clscwhere.

 

 

 

The man who made this picture and
the fame attached to his name need

The fact that the name is
kept a secret is merely one of courtesy
and for business reasons. However.
complete. announcement regarding the
producer will be made tomorrow in
the local press.

The new production deals with the
life of an orphan girl in the South. In
contrast with her surroundings and
her struggles there are to be seen the
great homes of the wealth and aris-
tocracy of that region. The producer
took a rundred people into the heart
of the old Bayou Teehe country in
western Louisiana to make the strik-
ing scenes of pastoral surpundings
for this picture. The story and the
manner of presentation will likely be
found in in the nature of a departure
from the usual method of theory of
screen offering.

The producer will be in South Nor-
walk to personally supervise every-
thing in connection with the premier
showing and he will brllg with him
his technical staff and leading play-
ers in the film. all of whom are known
throughout the world. This picture
will be shown in one of the leading
theatres of New York soon and later
will be presented on a large scale in
all ladlng cities of the United States
and abroad. '

LONDON. May 2.-—-All manner of
views are aired in the London news-
papers in reference to the United
States Supreme Court's liquor rulo
ing.

Among the facetious suggestions is
one that Great Britain declare war on
the United States to enforce the

they like. or. alternatively. to retal-
itato by placing a ban on chewing
gum and compel American ships to
dump their supply of this commodity
in the English channel. ..

According to one legal view of the
situatien. Great Britian is in a help.
lose position and must accept the
American law making the best of it.
'lt trougfitodthatestarssfarss
liners are concerned the United States
might be hducodj to allow them to en.
ter her ports with their liquor in bon
inflicting a fine without further peli-
alties.

The idea of transferlng liquor to I.
store ship at Sea. before entering the
three mile limit is generally scouted
as being unfeasible.

The Morning Post suggests that the
Lentils of Nations may have to act
on ”the feds and reforms of well
meaning. well organised peoples."

The Post continues: "it the United
States ban a vessel which carries at.
cohol. why should not Great Britain
ban one that lacks it?"

The “’estmlnister Gazette says that
the American people “most emphatic-
ally are not entitled to lay down rules
for the behavior of foreign nations
which do not choose to follow their
example. We hope America will con—
centrate its attention on the simple
requirements of international courtesy
and cooperation."

“It is obvious observes the Daily
News. "that when one nation has es-
tablished the principal that it can in-
terfere at will with the freedom of the
world’s maritime commerce. other
nations will follow suit and produce a
state of chaos. which may easily de-
velop dangerous quarrels."

"Negotiations have been going on
for the past several weeks to deter-
mine upon an adjustment in the
scale effective May 23rd. 1983. which
would be satisfactory to manufactur-
ers and employee. but this company
has issued no formal notice as to
what this adjustment will be. This
can be learned on application to the
office.

“W's consider it unfortunate that
these few employee. the melority of
whom have been in our employ some

have seen fit to terminate their
connection with us without a mo-
ment's notice. embarassing the com-
pany in the fulfillment of its obligso
tions and unjustly forcing out of em.

who are desirious of continuing gt
their jobs." .

following story to the Sentinel just
before press hour today: ,
