WAR DECLARED ON
DIRTY MILK HERE
1t Must Stop, Is the Cltimatum OF SUI
perintcndent Reeks and Inspector
Radcliff-Prosecutio Coming.

Radcliff Coming.
War on dealers in dirty milk has
been declared by Superintendent
Reeks of the health department and
Milk Inspector B. D. Radcliffe.
1t was announced, today at the
Office OF the department that vigor-
Gus campaign would soon be opened
against milk dealers whose goods are
dirty. DR.. Radcliffe has been devoting
much Of his time to ''gumshoeing'' for
dealers whose milk is not up to stan
dard. in regard to freedom from dirt
and he has collected sufficient data to
warrant prosecutions
I'VE have been securing data on this
matter and the time is coming when
we are going to learn why clean milk
is not sold in New Britain said SUI
perintendent Reeks this afternoon.
There is no~reason why New Britain
people should not get clean milk and
we are going to see to it that they do.
There are many milk dealers in town
who sell good milk in regard to its
quality but because of careless
handling it becomes dirty by the time
it is delivered into homes. You would
be surprised to see the samples of
dirt we have; collected. Every family
in New Britain , is interested in the
milk question and we're going to in
sist that clean milk only, be Sold" - y

NO hint AS TO HOW
GERMAN PROBLEM IS
TO Be met BY. U. S.
CONTINUED from First Page,

nose of the United States to assert
it's rights Notwithstanding Germany
inhibitions on the use of belligerent
ships by Am orleans seems most nkely
to be made in the next note. That
such action would not necessarily
lead to a rupture in relations is
generally recognized, unless an overt
act or fragrant violation of the prin
ciples for which the United States
has been contending should ensue.
Officials point out that while the
German reply does not give any ex-
plicit assurances on the subject tho
actual practice Of German submar-
inc commanders in the last two
months has been to visit neutral
ships, and to- give warnings to belli-
gerent merchantmen. thus enabling
crews to be transferred to boats IN
case destruction or a vessel as a
prize SIS determined upon. Consul
General Washington at Liverpool 90
day reported such an instance. The
American ship Normandy was ap-
preached by German subm arine,
whose commander examined the
ships papers and allowed her to
proceed, Notwithstanding that tile
vessel carried a cargo of lumber,
Which is OlI tIiC oCIHldH COUIFdOdHu
list The Normandy's crew later
rescued three Americans who were
aboard the Russian ship Leo, which
was sunk Officials here could not
determine from the meager advices
whether the Americans had been
aboard the Leo when she was at
tackled and took to their small boats
or whether they were first removed
tc the Normandy before the bellige-
rent ship was destroyed.
May Be Merely Truce
In any event this and other in
stances in the last two weeks are re-
garded here as evidence of the fact
that German submarine command
ers probably have Instructions to tor
pedo no ships without warning and
to save passengers and crews before
destroying the vessels. The view in
official quarters, therefore, is that il
the present policy of the German SUBJ
marine commanders is continued the
next note of the United States, with
it's emphatic assertion of an inten-
ton to eXcersize neutral rights, will
not necessarily lead to a break he-
tween t'G two countries. There are
some officials, however, who regard
the present situation as merely q
truce during the tendency of the
negotiations and who are not so
confident that Germany has entirely
abandoned her previous practices TO
which the United States objected.

that either company made any att
tempt to influence the millwrights

denied by the reports of both con-
Germs. q This is quarrel between
workmen in which the employers have
no part, and into which they object
most strenuously to being dragged. If
only the carpenters the iron workers,
the machinists and the millwrights,
could reach an agreement between
themselves, the whole trouble would

Remington Arms and Ammunition
company should use its Influence to-

The only persons qualified to ar

earnestly hoped that they will APP
preciate the situation and bring the
men to realization of the falsity of
their position towards themselves
and the injustice of calling a strike
against employers against whom they
