The site of the burning cross is
one of the most conspicuous in the
city. because of its height and
thousands of people hurried to get
a close view of it and also of any

K. K. K. who might be waiting
around to welcome them.
There was none of the hooded

gentry there however and nobody
seems to know who is to be thanked
for the evening's excitement. Mr.
Beard the owner of the property.

and the neighbors in the immediate

‘vicinity. however. found the excite-
ment far from thrilling. They were
-very much annoyed and frightened
by it.

Built of heavy timbers and wrap
pod in burlap bags which had been
saturated with tar and oil the cross
constituted a very real danger to
frame structures in the vicinity.
J'Iugo sparks shot out from it and
Tdrifted to nearby houses. blown
by a fairly active breeze.

Because of this danger the fire-
man at Central station were notified
and they, after giving the K. K. K.
cross a speedy 0-0. delivered a K.

“' So far as can be learned the
Norwsill police are not investigating
this outrage, although the state

OVER ADDITION

World Famous Companyi
Desires Extra Facilities.
—Held Up By Local
Drainage Problem.

Reginald Cash. a director of J. &.
J. Cash, Inc. and the son of the
president of the concern. Sidney
Cash. arrived in this city today to
discuss possibilities of further ex-
tension. at the large plant of the.
company in lower Chestnut street.

Plans for a large addition are
being held up because of the poor
drainage_system.v in lower Chestnut
street. a condition with which the
concern has had to put up with for
some time. The addition. which has
been in mind of the officials of the
Cash concern for sometime past, is
held in abeyance for this reason.

The company owns r..u props
”trauma recto at 36:4
corner of Chestnut strb’zt and Balls
avenue has been erected a two fam-
'ily house in which several employees
of the concern reside. On the side
or Chestnut street. opposite the Cash'
property. there runs a brook. a, por—
tion of. which. near Belle avenue. has
been filled with rubbish. In heavy
raity seasons this clogged brook
forces the water back into the cellar
of the Cash house. Sometimes there
is so much water the cellar that
even an electrical pump. which has
been installed to pump the water
out of the collar. is often put out
of commission. Officials of the con-
cern are afraid that this same con-
dition would affect the cellars of a
new addition.

Recently the matter of the drain-
age was brought to the attention of
-the common council. but the Cash
company was informed that the city
could do nothing because of the
brook running through private pro-
perty. owned by several individuals.
The Cash company owns a small por-
tion and keeps its portion of the
brook free from rubbish and weeds.
but this is not done by sc‘verai other
property owners.

During lilr. Cash’s visit. the of-
ficials will come to some decision
concerning the addition.

.J. h J. Cash Inc. is one of Nor-
walk's. most important industries.
manufacturing woven names. scarfs,
towels. and labels. that are known
the world over. This concern is one
of the new local industries to al-
waya advertise South Norwaik on
its products.

The concern was organised in
Covenfi-y England. and South Nor-
walk is the American headquarters.
Other factorieaare in Los Angeies.
Cal. and Bellsviile. Ontario. The
company also has offices in New
York City.

I". Goodchild. one of the most
prominent residents of this city. is
vice president and gensl'al manager
of the company and Arthur Lole.
also of this city, is secretary and
treasurer. William R. Cartwright. is

had come to hear Samuel Roodner
tell of his recent trip to and through

chairman of the meeting and the
first speaker was Mrs. Roodner.

She spoke in detail of the work of
the Hudassah society and urged all
Norwalk Jewish women to give it full
support. She likened its activities to

sanitary and medical work in the

jurisdiction.

lie estimated tllo cost for the con-
struction of the line at $1,350. In
closing. he said Calf Pasture Beach
was one of the greatest assets the
district had.

Albert 'I‘. Eldridge. former coun-
cilman. thought the taxpayers of the
district. would remain loyal to their
district and vote for this much need-
ed improvement. He said that it
was the duty of the district to light

that ill!“ Fifth District would pay fill

John Henry of East avenue ap-
pmved of the construction of the

was the price. He has an op-
tion on more land in the same tract

and urged those present to purchase ‘

some. notas a speculation but to aid
the cause of zionlsm and Palestine.
It is said the! if sufllelent land in this
tract is bought by Norwalk Jews it
may be possible to establish a. colony
there supported and assisted in the
malnxby this city, and perhaps call-
ed Norwalk.

He told of meeting Abraham
Shapiro. a venerable man of
more than 90. whose son experienc-
ed an attack of faiht~heartedness
during some trouble with the Arabs
some years ago. Shapiro said to his
son he must either stand his ground
or be shot down by his father's
hand. The boy fought and the Arabs

come known all over Palestine and
m'any go to the colony of Petach
Ticwa where he lives to meet him.

Mr. Roodner described the first
day of Passover at the Wailing Wall
in Jerusalem. There. in earnest
prayer. he saw Jews from every
country in the world. Thousands
stoodi in the small space around the
76 foot fragment of the historic
wall.
