Studebaker Manager Returns to
South Bend After Extended
Western Trip
Insists That the Automobile
Factories Will Not Be Able {
to Fill Demand
By R. R. L'HoMMEDIEU


Hayden Eames, general manager of
the studebaker automobile company,
and E. LIE Roy Pelletier, it's advertising
manager, returned to South Bend Ind.
a few days ago after completing a
months inspection tour of the country
visiting the Studebaker branches.
Speaking of the conditions as they
found them Eames writes:
Even to a greater extent than last
year our problem is going to be to
supply the ever increasing demand. 1t
seems as il there is no end to the
demand for medium priced cars. par
ticularly cars of the E-M-F go class
Thousands of conservative business
men who even to a year ago doubted
that a good, serviceable, reliable fam
lily car could be sold for less than
$4,000 now realize that with modern
methods of producing In the tremen-
dous quantities we do such a car is
now obtainablev for half that price.
The result is a demand that / would
say is four times in excess of the
supply. Even if the 100000 or so cars
which are predicted for next season
could be built the supply would still
be inadequate to meet the demands
as we have found them on this trip.
Being in close touch with the mate
rial and the parts markets am certain
that not more than 10000 automobiles
of all types will be manufactured dur
ing the coming u months, and | think
125. 900 is nearer the figure. That be-
ing the case it will be seen that the
shortage in the spring months will be
greater even than last year and will
be very aggravating to those buyers
who were not fortunate in getting their
orders in and definite delivery dates
specified.

SUPERIOR COURT.
Finding For Defendants in Case of St PauPs Episcopal church-Possihility of an Appeal.

When court came in Wednesday morning Judge Reed immediately read his decision on the motion made Tuesday afternoon to have the jury instructed to bring in a verdict for the defendants as had been asked for by them.
 The decision was quite a long one, but the pith of 1t was to the effect that plaintiffs had not proven that the s10,0OO had been raised within the year and he stated that as the su- prenne court had ruled that the S6,000 voted by the bishop and the standing committee could not be reckoned as a part of the S10,000 fund, as the com mittee did not have 1t in it's possession until after the year fixed by MT. Board man for raising the same had elapsed, nor could the certificates of stock that MT. Hatch had placed in his deposit box be considered as a part of the fund, as he had never r- endorsement turned them toward the funds use, and in the event of death there would have been nothing to indicate that they were. part and parcel with the fund.
 Tn view of these circumstances the court announced that he would grant the motion requested and instructed the jury to retire and bring in yer dict for the defendants.
 The jury was out only a few mo- ments and returned. with a verdict as instructed by the court.
 Mir. Hatch and the attorneys for 5t. Pauls Episcopal church stated that they could not now say whether an appeal to the supreme court would be taken. It is generally believed here that if any ground can be found for taking an appeal that the higher court will be given an opportunity of again having a chance to decide the case.
 Court then excused the jury until next Tuesday morning and ordered court adjourned until this morning at

FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY
It's Utility and Influence Described by Miss Curtis.

From the paper on The Uses of a Village Library, read Wednesday at Willimantic by Miss Evelyn Curtis be- fore the meeting of the Connecticut Library association, the following facts concerning the free public li- brary of Danielson are taken:
 'In August, 1854, there was meet ing of young men in Danielson, which resulted in the formation of a Young Mems Library association, having for its object the intellectual, social and moral improvement of its members by the establishment of a library, togeth- CT with lectures, essays, debates and such other exercises as from time to time may be approved.
 Two hundred dollars was voted for the purchase of books, and in Novem- Der the library was opened for cir culation.
 "The first years report showed 467 books and III subscribers.
 Name Changed.
 'Tn 1877 the name was changed to the Peoples Library association. but 1t remained a subscription library un- til 1892.
 Tn that year the association trans ferred its library to the borough. It then received its present name of Free Public library.
 Made Free in 1899.
 "In 1899 it was made free to the residents of the town of Killingly. the town in return giving a fixed sum an- nually for general library use. All these years the books were housed in bookstore, church or business block until Juneg 1908, the beautiful building made possible through the generosity of Hon. Edwin Bugbee, was dedicated and our library of nearly 5000 books was suitably housed.
 Nearly 5000 Books.
 "Thus in 55 years the library has grown from one of 467 with III sub- scribers to nearly 5000 books with 1,40O borrowers and a building ample for the needs.
 ''The books are free to 1000 peo- pie scattered over an ear of 57 1-2 square miles.
 Hast year 25.47S books. 503 more than any previous year, were loaned.'
