MANUFACTURERS OPPOSE TRANSFER OF COONEY'S
 LICENSE TO SELL LIQUOR

Frank A. Duane, supervising eng1- neer for the Whiting Mfg. Co.,, sta ted that at his plant there were 30 girls and about 200 men employed, and that within a short time that number would be doubled. The company found in their short experience that much val uable work has been destroyed, be- cause of the condition of their enl- ployes.
 President Hamilton of the Whiting Co. stated that his company moved from New York to this city because of the ideal factory conditions which were presented here, one of those con- ditions being lack of saloons in that locality.
 H. A. Philips manager of the Hen kels Lace Go. stated that his company employed 50 girls and about 20 men, and will double that amount within short time. Their experience is that a saloon will be very detrimental.
 Charles E. Perkins and Harlan L.. spectively of the American Lacquer Co. opposed the transfer. Both relat- ed experiences the company had had with drunks who prowl about the neighborhood in the evening. On four occasions their place has been burglar ized, once drunk who came from neighboring saloon.
 Walter H. Bullard. assistant treasur- CT of the E. H. H. Smith Silver Co. in Stratford and Harry H. Reeves, who owns property along Bruce's Brook also opposed the application.
 The commissioners did not decide the issue today but will do so later.
 The hearing on the application for the transfer of the license of George Tarasewich from 718 Railroad to 28 on the same street did not materialiZe. In the face of the strenuous opposition the applicant decided to withdraw.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-06-20

Manufacturing interests on the East Side. along the upper end of Connec- ucut avenue. are much opposed to the transfer of the liquor license of Daniel Cooney from PAT Hallam street to the corner of Bishop and Connecticut ave- nues. They voiced their sentiments at a hearing before the County Commis- sioners today. The manufacturers claim that a saloon is a handicap to their interests and a red flag in the face of their employees. They also as- sert, most of those opposed being new concerns. that they located in that eno of the city because of the ideal loca- tion, and the absence of saloons.
 Daniel Cooney. the applicant for the transfer, stated that he formerly con- ducted saloon at East Main and Cedar streets. and also at Avon Park in Stratford. In his six and one-half years as a proprietor he has been ar rested twice, in Stratford.
 Among the witnesses was Michael Kelly who for 8 score of years con ducted a saloon in Water street. Kelly is the owner of a, lot in Connecticut avenue. He favored the transfer.
 James St. Claire of 131 Bishop ave- nue. stated that he never touched a drop of liquor in his life. He favored the transfer.
 George Nagsy of 13s Bishop avenue, John Rylands of Stratford avenue. and Charles Bergstrom of No. 1 Elm1ra street, favored the application.
 Mrs. Mary Markey of 705 Connecti- cut avenue. who is the owner Of five houses on Hollister Heights. which is also near the proposed location. didn't care if a saloon was placed there as her husband didn't drink. eff he wanted a drink he'd go five miles to get it, I couldn't stop him.

Holland Heights Engine Builder with Millions at His
 Command, Is Perfecting Brand New Type of Craft

member of the Aero Club of America whose identity Whitehead is bound not to disclose, he has already spent thousands in purchasing the equip ment for his machine. Fast it is nearing completion. By the middle of July, if nothing goes amiss White head expects to step into his car, turn lever and ascend to any de- sired height. Then he will turn an other lever and start forward. Speed ing, backing, turning sideways, as- cending or descending as he wishes these are the stunts that Whitehead will demand of his creation.
 Gus Whitehead, as his friends best know him, Is one of the most expert engine builders in the world. He has succeeded in turning out engines whose efficiency in proportion to their weight is marvellous. Years ago he was building engines for dirigible bal looms. Back in 1901 he made a flight in an airship of the aeroplane type, out near Fairfield beach, when he scared through the air for one eighth of a mile and astounded the few who were privileged to witness the unheralded trial.
