It was learned today that the
New Milford store of the Modern
Grocery company was burglarised
Monday night. the night after the
company's Ely avenue store was en-
tered and the safe carried away.
The report mods to the New’ Milford
police by J. LchEwan. the man-
ager. states that sub-in cash and
its in checks so taken.

The entranc o the New Milford,
store was made with a key and the
police of that town are working on
the idea that it was an "Inside Job."
The but-glare uhb‘srred the rear door
of the store a'fter entering but did
not open it.

McEwan informed the police that
he had left the money In a bank
book with a deposit slip. ready for
banking on Tuesday. It was placed

The manager usually leaves a light
burning in the store throughout the
night. but for some unknown reason
the lights in the store went out be-
tween 10 and 1 o‘clock Monday
night and it Is believed that the theft
took place during that time. The
burglars did not disturb anything
else in the store.

Michael Abrahems of the Modern
Grocery company stated this morn-
ing thatho did not think that the
two burglaries were ccmmitteed on
the same night. He'thcught that
the one in Ely avenue was com-
mitted Sunday night and the one in
New Milford Monday night. He did
not think that there was any con-
nection between the two robberies.
