Lawyer Says Nc Arc Using Voting
 haChneS Illegally.
WILL BRING AClIOs IN TWO WEEKS
New Britain Must Negotiate for Use of Device in Short Time or Wash ington Attorney Will Resort to Courts.

New Britain faces litigation over patents granted on voting machines, according to communication re- ceived today from Frank s. Apple man, a patent attorney, of Washing ton, D. C. The threat is made that unless the city negotiates within two weeks for the right to acquire the use of the machines action will be Brought.
 Y The. news of New Britain's predic- ament was contained in a letter re- ceived by City Clerk A. l.. Thomp- son from Attorney Appleman. The letter sta5ed that the voting ma chimes used here are infringements on Patent No. 1,131,3 ,363, issued on March g, 1915. It does not state to whom the patent was issued.
 Among other things the letter says: .- .. Suit Is Threatened.
 If you wish to arrange for the continued possession and use of these infringing devices we would be glad to enter into negotiations looking to your gaining such right by license agreement but in the absence of your acquiring the right to use said vot- ing machines We will be compelled to enter suit unless satisfactory ar engagements are made wiShin two weeks"
 The announcement that the ma- chimes were infringements on patents and that New Britain may face lit igation over their use came as a bomb shell to city officials. As far as could be learned no hint had here .ofore been received that there was any legal difference over them.
 Machines Here Worth $7,2OO.
