STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE TO
GATHER TODAY
Republicans Will Fix
Dates for State Con'
vention a n d Cau-
cuses—Vacancies
(By Associated Prue.)
HARTFORD, Conn, July 34.—
'i‘he Republican state central com-
mittee at a meeting here today is
expected to iii the dates for the fall
convention of the party to name the
candidates for the state ticket and
also the date for the caucuses in the
v.1 'ious towns of the state to select
delegates to the convention, which
are held on the same day trough-
out. the state.
St has been customary to hold the
convention during the second week
in September and it was said today
that the precedent Would very likely
hold this year, though there was a
possibility that the meeting of the
committee might. fix on the first
week.
As the caucuses, according to law,
must be held ten days in advance
of the meeting of the convention.
the date would probably be some-
time durlng the last week in Au-
gust, should the convention full on
the usual dates, while an earlier
meeting of the convention would
necessitate the fixing of caucus date
during the third week in August.
New Haven Meeting Place.
According to custom the conven-
tion this year would be held in New
Haven it having been the plan to
alternate the convention sittings be—
tween this city and New Haven. The
spring convention was held in this
city. However, the question of
securing a. meeting place in New
Haven may cause a. change from the
ultimate plan.
It was considered that state
Chairman J. Henry Roraback would"
'be ready to announce his selection
of an associate member of the na-
tional committee born this state
and a state vice chaii'man, to fill the
two vacancies caused by the death
of Mrs. Samuel 0. Prentice. The
selection of these appointees of the
committee was left to Chairman
Roraback at a. previous meeting.
Among those whose names had been
previously mentioned were Miss
Isabel Alcorn, of Thompsonville;
Miss Katherine Byrne of Putnam:
Mrs. Helen E. Lewis, of Stratford:
Mrs. Joseph Merritt of Hartford and
Mrs. Alice Russ, of Shelton.
Today's meeting of the committee
was set for 2:30 p. m. and a. full at-
tendance is expected. in view of the
fact that plansJor the fall campaign
in the state were expected to be
discussed.

HARTFORD, Conn, July 24,—-
A special dispatch from New York
to the Hartford Times today says
that Judge Henry \Vado Rogers of
the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals has decided that it. would
be impossible for him to accept the
Den‘locratic nomination for Gover-
nor of Connecticut, even if it should
be offered him by the state conven-
tion of the party. This is contrary
to the expectations of many of
Judge Roger's friends. who had
hoped until today that he would
accept the nomination if it were of-
fered to him, according to the
TIMES.
Judge Rogers is reported asfccl-
ing that the unexpected resignation
of Judge Julius Mayer and the ill
health of one of the other members
of the court make it impossible for
him to consider political service at
this time. But for these factors it
is stated that Judge Rogers' deep
admiration for John \V. Davis, dc-
inocratic Presidential nominee,
might have influenced him to take
a. receptive attitude toward the
suggestion of his nomination.

TOPEKA, Kansas, July 24.—
Wheat has replaced oil as the source
of a. rapid Wealth 211 Kansas.
Poor tenant farmers. who have
struggled for years, many of them
in the southwestern part of the
state, and who were compelled to
appeal to the public for seed wheat
loans last fall to seed this year's
crop, today find themselves wealthy.
Many others, who had purchased
farms 'with small payments and
who expected to have mortgages
hanging over them for years, are in
a position to pay off those mort-
gages and purchase motor cars and
other things they have denied them-
selves for years.
Kansas' unprecedented wheat
crop has produced all this wealth,
and with rising prices. promises to
convert this wéaith into even great
wealth before all the crop is mar-
keted.
Hundreds of farmers, anticipating
higherprices caused by reported
poor crops in Canada and other
wheat producing countries, are
holding their wheat for the gain
they feel sure will be theirs by not
marketing it at once.

WEST AVE ROAD
Tar Inch D e e p. on
Warm Days— Sticks
To Cars and Trucks
WALKING BAD
Commissioner Duify
Has Tried to Fix It
With Sand But With-
out Success
Automobllists living in Norwalk as
well as those who pass through the
city are complaining today of the
condition of West avenue. As the
result of the hot sun beating down
on the wooden block. the pavement
is covered with a layer an inch deep
of sticky tar. The heat from the
sun caused the tar to ooze to the
surface out of the wooden blocks.
That the far is good and sticky is
testified to by many motorists who
have endeavored to clean the sub-
stance from their machine after tra-
velling over \Vest avenue. The tar
seems to take a. delight in clinging
:to an automobile and it is next to
impossible to remove it. Pedestrians
too, who have to cross the avenue,
complain that the tar sticks to the
bottom of their shoes and is carried
to rugs and carpets indoors.
Because of the soft tar. “'est ave-
nue threatens to become a. second
East avenue. Torn up by heavy
trucks, the tar has been the cause of
fairly good sized ruts appearing on
the avenue making disagreeable rid-
ng.
Street Commissioner Edward
Duffy when told of the complaints
which have reached i‘he Sentinel
office regarding the condition of
West avenue, said:
"The soft tar is the chemical re—
action of the creosate in the wood-
en blocks upon the asphalt road-
bed," explained Commissioner Duffy.
“I don't know what can be done to
remedy conditions. The street de-
partment has covered the tar on sev-
eral occasions this summer. with a
coating of sand. It has even gone
as far as to roll sand in with a roll-
ing machine, but it hasn'tdone a bit
or good. ‘ In a few days. the sand has

Noroton, a rcsolutio was unanimo‘

the state fund established for the

At the state convention of the
Veterans of Foreign \‘i'ars a short:
time ago a resolution was passed
urging the passage of a bonus. The
action of the Falrficld County or-

to indcate that the Legion will be

abolish the state fund for the aid
