Mr. Tobias opened his talk by stat-

rY- He stated that this conception
of prosperity was a false one in that
a careful check on business showed
there was usually a.period of three
years steady growth..thres years of
even tenure and than .a three years'
slump. The speaker advocated a
steady and consistent growth rather
than an artificial boom created ,with
lhe idea that it was prosperity.
Merchant! Problems
The speaker then took up the
problems of the retail merchant. He
stated that a change in policy would
soon be necessary among th retail
business men of the various c ties or
the: would soon be forced to dis-
continue business. Mr. Tobias re-
.. enforced this statement with quota-
tions tending to show that the chain
stores and mail order houses were
rapidly absorbing the business here-

merchant. He pointed out' that the

Feeling that there was more than usual significance in the

of the Danbury fair next week. Five
of these birds. much heard of and
written about. nlli be shown by Mrs.
H. A. Gibbs of Dnricn, a breeder of
the fowl, and will make an exhibit
which will afford many people an
opportunity for seeing the swans in
as near their native element as can
be arranged at a show in a building.
Mrs. Gibbs is to bring five swans
to the fair. A tank has been built
in the poultry house and water con-
nected with the tank. This will en-
able the swans to swim about and
give visitors to the show ample op-
portunity for viewing them. Swans
are seldom seen in n. poultry show.

SAUGATI’CK “'OMAN FALLS
OFF CHAIR. HURTS KNEE
Ellen Grant. connected with the

taken to the Norwalk hospital and

The. City of Norwalk will probably
be asked some time the middle of

tuled by Schuyler Merritt Saturday
in his speech accepting the renamin-
atlon for Congress. The money will
be the cost of airplane maps of this
district to be used as the basis of
further planning in the scheme of
extending the Bronx River parkway
through the county.
Congressman Merritt.
dress. referred to the necessity for
an active Republican organization
for the county with the particular
end in view that of duplicating in
this county the park development of
Westchester County. New York,
here. He said:
“The time for Fairfield County to
act in a. similar way is now and not
when it is too late. We are bound
to be a thickly settled community
and we should see to it that our ci-
tizens can live under pleasant and
healthful conditions and not be
herded together without trees and
parks and with narrow and congest-
ed highways."
The scheme of putting a broad
belt of parkway through the county
from end to end is admittedly a gi-
gantic one. It has been under con-
sideration for years and has gradu-
ally assumed proportions that de-
mand immediate consideration.
That the time for definite action
has approached has become evident
to both the county political leaders
and the group of citizens who first
promulgated it, organized in Fair-
firld County Planning association.
The latter body. non-political in in-
tent and design. had up until the
declaration of Congressman Merritt.
little hope of support from political
sources.
In an interview with the Sentinel.
Samuel P. Senior of Bridgeport.
president of the Bridgeport Hydrau-
lic company of the Planning asso-
ciation, indicated that the associa-
tion has been faced with opposition
from official sources in its years-long
campaign for the parkway. \Vhen
told that Congressman Merritt had
come out flatly with the inference
that "with help at Hartford we can
do much." Mr. Senior expressed his
hope that either the Fairfleld Coun-
ty political organization or the Plan-
ning association might. obtain the
desired end, regardless of which
derives the credit for the victory
that will come eventually.
There is apparently no reason to
think that the two have joined
hands as yet to promote the project

Westport held one of those town
meetings last night for which it is
famed. and this morning some of
those who missed being present are
asking "What‘s all the .shooting

that the Republican party ran away

Even the Republicans didn't reel-

over. Then when a careful perusal
of the amendment was made it
dawned upon them that they got
even more than they dared hope for.
