NEW HAVEN R. It '
REFUNDING ls
BIG SUCCESS

Foreign Loan to Be
Paid April 1 Without
Recourse to Under-
writing Syndicate

NEV‘V YORK, Fob. 16.——'l‘ho New
York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad Co.. will pay its 823,000.-
000 European loan in full at me-
turitvon April 1 next, Edward G.
Buckiand, vice president. announc-
ed today.

Fifteen year 6 per cent gold bonds
which have been mailed to fund this
heavy obligation have been virtually
all subscribed, Mr. Buckland said.
The public response to the new
bond issue not only had made cer-
tain the success of the refunding
plan, but constituted a show of good
will and practical support from
banks and coporations in the New
Haven territory which he called
unique in transportation history.

“\Wlh the 823,000,000 European
loan out of the way," he was ask-
cd. "do you mean the New Haven
is now 'in the clear'?"

“That's just what I mean," an.
swored Mr. Bucklrtnd with a smile
that apparently recalled 1924 had
been the first year the New Haven
had shown a surplus since 1917.

In dismissing the popular response
which has enabled the New Haven
to clear the 823,000 debt on April
1 without recourse to an under-
writing syndicatc. Mr. Buckland
classified the subscriptions by states
as follows:

 

 

themselves furnishing 81,000,000 of
this latter amount. While the total
of these subscriptions feel slightly
short of the entire $23,000,000 Mr.
Bucklsnd said-the balance was fully
assured.

The European loan. of which be
estimated that 318,000,000 was held
by investors in the United States.
and the balance abroad originally
bore interest at 4 per cent. In 1922
it was extended for three years at
I per cent.

G. O. P..Money Genius,
Fred. A. ’Upham, Dies

PALM BEACH, Fla... Feb. 16.—
Frederick A. Upbam. 61. of Chicago,
formerly. treasurer of the Republi-
can National committee, died here
yesterday from cerebral hemorr-
hage. , . ,

 

 

CHICAGO. Feb. 16.—Frederick
William Upham, whose death was
announced from Palm Beach. late
yesterday before his retirement as
treasurer of the Republican Na-
tional committee last June was for
20 years the financial genius of the
G. O. P. b yreason of his chairman-
ship of the Chicago convention com-
mittee which- made arrangements
for five National conventions.

Mr. Upham came to Chicago in
1894. and entered the lumber busi-
ness. He was president of the Con—
sumer’s c'omplny. one of the large
corporations of the country, and a
director of a large meal company.
He was president of the Illinois
manufacturer's Association in 1908-
09.

His interest in National politics
had not waned in thirty-two years,
but he held elective office only as
a member of the Cook County board
of tax reviewers and as an alder-
man of Chicago. He held the for-
mer office for 14 years, but re~
signed during his first term of the
latter.

He was a delegate to the Repub-
licanoNationai convention four times
since his first selection in 1892 for
eighth Wisconsin district. Since
1904 as chairman of the local con-
ventlon committee he had organized
and financed four national .conven-
lions, each year his task becoming
larger and more difficult. He saw
the national convention expenses
grow from 870,000 'in 1904 to $150,-
000 in 1920. He was ti'easurer of
the national committee for seven
years.

He had been in poor health for
some months before his retirement
from the treasureshlp last June at

the urgence his wife. He de-
sired, despit his poor health. to
acne through the Coolidge cam-

paign. Last winter he spent a
lengthy period in the southvrest and
on the Pacific coast, and returned
feeling much stronger.

"Janice Meredith." They depict the
Court of Louis XVI at Versailles and
the ballroom scene in Philadelphia.
As backgrounds for throngs of ac—

tors and actresses richly clad in
costumes or the period. they are
scenes that for magnificence and

dazzling grandeur surpass anything
yet produced for the screen. In every
detail. from the innumerable cande-
iabra to to huge mirrors that line
the walls. they are exact copies of
the original places.

The scene showing \Vashlngton's
crossing of the Delaware necessitat-
ed the cutting of a channel 400 feet
wide in the ice of the Saranac river.
Exact rep oductions of the flat boats
used by sshington were specially
constructed for the occasion.

The village square in Thenion,
throguh which “'ashlngton passed
to take command of the Continental
Army. was constructed just as it
existed in 1776, while the Battle of
Yorktown and surrender of the Brito
ish were reproduced from the most
authentic prints and histories of

OF BOY SCOUTS

Officials Throw Spot-
light‘on Work—An-
niversary Week Plea
For Scoutmasters

The Boy Scout, according to his
custom. goes modestly along his
way doing good turns, helping other
people and making remarkable
strides in health and skill. And we
wouldn‘t know a thing about the
lad’s good deeds if the telling were
left to him.

.At the Scouts' anniversary week
time—Feb. 8-14th—tlie scout offi-
cers like to turn the spotlight on
these 'knighis in khaki and rejoice
in their record of efficient kindness,
serviceand good citizenship.
Records compiled at the National
headtharters show that over one
thousand awards have been present-
ed scouts ln the last fifteen years for
life saving.

Burning buildings. icy lakes.
whirling waters. were frequently the
scenes of these brave rescues~—ex-
ploits which grlutly tested the skill.
presence of mind and courage of
these youthful heroes.

Civic sot-vice totalling thousands
of hours in the unvaryihg record of
every Scout council. Honolulu alone
lists for the past year twenty-one
thousand hours‘ of service contrib-
uted in response to twenty-one 'dif—
feront calls for assistance from 10-
cal institutions and organizations.

The acres of timberland saved
from ravages of forest flames by
the scouts can never be estimated. ,
Trre planting—conservation of
natural resources. preservation of
bird life—by building bird houses
and replenishing bird sanctuaries
with food all winter long. are some
other activities of the scouts. not
only here in Norwalk, but through‘
out the country.

Serving on school trul‘t‘lc corps.
helping the younger children cross
streets safely. assisting the police in
directing traffic during parades and
especially when the traffic is heavy
enrouie lo the football games at
New Haven. lns'aillng radio sets for
the blind, chopping wood {or old
people. keeping city ydrsnta clear
of snow and ice. are just a few of
the thousands of other ways these
lads have been tendering help
thruout the country and here in our
own community.

As to progress in Scouting nothi-
ties records for the past year show
that 9.631 boys have won merit
badges for tirelnansbip. '9.003 for
public health and 9.426 for personal
health. Thousands of other badges
have been won for the other 67 sub-
jects in the curriculum.

Scouting is doing well its wonder-
ful job for the future citizenship and
security of our country. Anyone in-
terested 1n helping to put the work
over here in Norwalk that Norwolk
may act these high principles be-
fore the 1.000 boys who are out of
the fold due to lack of Scoutmast-
ers, let him enroll in the coming
course run annually by the Norwalk
Council to train Scout Leaders. The
exact date of this course will appear
in this paper later.
