Only 58 Dentists Tn
 Entire British Army

London, Aug. 9.-Dental surgeons were not made a part of the British Army Medical Corps until last Jan uary. although the United States army has had a dental department for about fifteen years, and up to May 30 only 58 British dentists had been given a 1ieutenant's commission. In force of three million men, 58 dentists do not make much of an inn pressfon. Moreover, dentists do not appear to be welcomed by the army medical men.
 Complaint against the small repre- sentatfon given the dental profession and the prejudice against it in the medical corps is made in a statement issued by the chairman of the repre- sentative board of the British Dental Association.
 Some of the large training centers in England are unprovided with den lists, and in some districts there is only one dentist to 50,O00 men or more.

Tonight Mayor Wilson will send to the common council a special message setting forth the reasons why he be- iieves the ancient building code which he helped prepare six years ago should be adopted instead of the or sdinance on the regulation of the three decker wooden houses which the Good Housing association desires shall pass The members of the Good Houing association had the mayor and the members of the ordinance committee lined up in favor of the proposed ordinance against the wood en three-deckers. The ordinance committee was prepared to make a favorable report. on this ordinance. Mayor Wilson was prepared to en- dorse this report and have the council adopt the ordinance when some of the big builders of the city got busy with the administration.
 Then, at the sesi on of the comm on council last week, Mayor Wilson read message asking that action on the housing situation be delayed and that he be given permission to appoint a special co1nnittee of some 30 members to consider the situation. The com 1nittee includes besides the ordinance co1nittee of the council, the fire com missioners, and the building commits sioners. g. number of builders, plumb ers and other house craftsmen, a num- Der of realty operators and members of the Good Housing association.
 The committee held a public meet ing last Wednesday and after 3consid- erable debate 3. large majority vote in favor of the. ord finance was taken this, despite the fact that Mayor Will son presented the building code which

 However, the mayor is not dismayed at the action of his special commit tee and despite the upaninous opinion of that body he will ask the council tonight to adopt his building code and the chances are that the council will do what he asks.
 There is little business to come be- fore the council tonight except the report of this special committee.
 Several public hearings have been set down for tonight. Among them are:
 Widening of Stratford avenue from the Pequonnock river to East Main street; also changing of the grade of Stratford avenue between the Pe- quonnock river and East Main street.

 Secretary Lansing said he was con- sidering American representations in Mexico City in view of the departure of the Brazilian minister, but he did not know what would be done. He as- Esumed, however that American dip #lomatie affairs would be ssoon in 9 state of quiescence in Mexico City. The reasons for the Brazilian nainis- ter's visit to the United States at this time, the secretary said, were unknown ito him.
 Secretary Lansing announced today that the Pan-A American conference in Mexican affairs would be resumed in New York city Wednesday, afternoon at 2 o'loek at the BiItmore hotel He said he did not know how prolonged the conference would be.
 l. It. is believed here that Earranza ex- pefTed the uateInalan and was pre- pairing to expeI the Brazilian because of participation of their countries in the Pan-American conference in wash ington for composing Mexican affairs.
 The development is very disturb- ing one for the success of the Pan American conference. Officials who were hoping Carranza would join a peace conference with his adversaries and meet the efforts of the Pan-Amer- ican nations to settle the factional strife were much disappointed
 It was said by Carranza, agents here that the Guatenalan and North Bra zilian had been on good terms with CarranzaI and that it had not been Carranzas $ intention to hand the Bra- ziIia-n his passports as son as he again re-occupied Mexico City.
 1 The participation of Brazil and Gua- teTnala in the Pan-American confer ence, they said, brought Carranza's re- sentiment to a climax It is recalled that Castro, the. dictator of Venezuela, took much the same action when of fended by foreign nations pressing for settlement. of affairs in his country.

COMMISSIONERS SETTLE
 FLIP LICENSE FIGHT

After a dispute that threatened to disrupt the Lenox Heights section of Fairfield, the county commissioners have finally reached a solution of the Charles Filip liquor license problem. This morning they granted F'i1ip's ap- plication to transfer his license from his present location in Marlborough terrace to his grocery store across the street.
 Fi1ip first applied for a transfer to 8 location on the Tunxis Hill road but this was opposed by many nearby residents, including members of Fair field Engine Go. No. g., Fi1ip then withdrew his application and as there was no objection to his plan of m owing across the street, the commits sioners granted his application.

Women Here To
 Help Cause Of
 Eight Hour Day

(Continued from Page 1.) caused the men employed there to take action themselves.
 Contrasting with the statement is- sued from the factory is the state ment of the nachinists that few men returned to work there, and that the strike is affecting all classes of work men employed there.
 A committee from the Machinists' union will wait upon the officials of the Lake Torpedo Boat Co.,, and in form them that the company'S wage standard is considerably less than the 45 cents an hour. which is the approx innate standard of the union. Be- cause government contract work is be- ing done, the factory is on an eight hour basis but the wages are paid on that basis too. The same demands will be made at the plant of the American & British Co.,, where the same conditions exist.
 During the next few days written demands will be made on all the fac tories in Bridgeport, which are on the lists of the union. The following demands will be made;
 Eight hour day.
 Increases in wages of approxf-
 mately 2OY per cent
 Time and one-half for over
 time
 Double time for Sunday work.
 The case of the Curtis & Curtis Co.,. which announced profit-sharing plan last week, has not been considered yet by the union as it's place on the list has not yet been reached Despite the announcement, the factory will wait it's turn and. it has been intimated that the profit-sharing offer will have no effect on the plans of the union.
 It. was learned here today that at the general meeting held in Hartford, arrangements were made to continue the campaign for eight hours and bet ter working conditions throughout Ohio, where 1t has been learned that many munitions supplies plants are active. Instead of modifying their plans, the assembled leaders agreed yesterday to continue their campaign with renewed vigor throughout New England and the states of New York New Jersey and Ohio.
