Georgia Makes Special
 Law for Locomobile

The law regulating automobiles in the state of Georgia is entitled, "An act to regulate the running of auto mobiles. locomobiles, etc. This does not mean that the Georgia solons picked out the Bridgeport product as being particularly addicted to running over people, and therefore in need of special restraint, but in the early days of the industry, when autem obiles were called .'horseless carriages" the Locomobile Company of America was the only compny in this country turn ing out automobiles in large quanti- ties.
 These small machines, many of which are. still running, were manu- factured by the thousand and became so we'll known that they influenced the laws of many states, Georgia be- ing only one example,. Also, one of the largest railroad systems in the country has a freight rate for auto mobiles and locom mobiles.
 In recent years most people have come to realize that the locomobile is exactly the same kind of vehicle as other automobiles, except that being made in Bridgeport, it cannot help being little better.

TO OPPOSE
 ALL SALOONS
 NEAR SHOPS
Manufacturers Association Makes Declaration at Re monstrance Against Pat rick Flahaven

A concerted effort by the Manufac- IurerS' Association to prevent the opening of new saloons in the vicinity of local factories was made known to- day at remonstrance against Patrick Flahaven before the county commis- sloners. Secretary Bennett of the as sociation read a resolution passed Oc- tober 5, in which the manufacturers agreed to oppose all applications for licenses near shops and to instruct the associlation'S counsel to appear at all such remonstrances.
 President Willis F. Hobbs of the Manufacturers Association, testified that the above resolution had been passed. He said the establishment of saloon near a factory is a detriment not only to the employer but to the employees. The employees are apt to step in the saloon on the way to and from work and frequent indulgence makes them less valuable as work men.
 H. H. Hamilton, president of the Whiting Manufacturing Co.; located within two blocks of Stratford and Bishop avenues, where Flahaven wants to locate, also testified. The witness said his company had experienced great trouble with some employees be- cause of intoxication. The company at one time had been forced to em-
 
 underground traffic by which liquor was brought into the factory and sold. President Hamilton said most of the employees were compelled to pass the corner of Bishop and Stratford ave- nues on the way to work.
 Mrs. John Healy, who lives in Strat- ford avenue near the corner of Bishop avenue, was opposed to the granting of the application. She feared the presence of saloon would decrease the value of her property, which is next door
 J. H. Crossley, representing himself and several other property owners, de- clared that another saloon in that neighborlood would decrease property 
 President Fred Enos of the Board of Trade, stated that saloons near fac-l tories were detrimental to the manu- featuring interests. He believed the interests of the manufacturers who furnish employment for so many, should be considered above those who wished to conduct saloons. He was not opposed to all liquor traffic, but merely when the traffic might prove harmful to the manufa curing inter- ests.
 A number of witnesses appeared in favor of Flahaven. They regarded the place as suitable for a saloon, and said the applicant is suitable per- son.f The commissioners reserved de- ciSiOn
