Big WAR ORDER IS
RECEIVED BY 7. & H.
Will Manufacture 16,416,000
Logging Fasteners
CONTRACT FOR BRITISH GOVT.
p. & F. Corbin Installs Two Carloads
of New Machinery and Is Thought
to Have Secured Order-Other Lo-
cal Concerns Are Busy.
CONTRACT FOR BRITISH GOVT,

War orders continue to pour into
New Britain and there is hardly
manufacturing plant in town that
handles metals that is not receiving
its share either through direct orders
,or sub-contracts -.
!! The latest concern to receive an or
der in Traut & Hine, whose machines
are bnsy today preparing consign-
ment of 16,416, 900 brass fasteners for
leggings used by soldiers Of the Brit
ish army. The concern has received
three orders through j. P. Morgan &
Co., of New York. One is for $4,000
gross Of fasteners, another for $1,000
gross and a third for 1880 gross.
Up to very recently England was
able to manufacture her own fast
eners While the greater part Of the
male population is at the battle fronts
or drilling in preparation for
march on the enemy, the girls and
women have been engaged making &C
coutrements, but on account of d.
minished supply of raw. material it
has been necessary to abandon great
part of this home industry and sent
orders to America.
England is facing a problem in its
inability to secure brass. This metal
could be purchased last winter for
fourteen cents per pound, but today
the price is twenty-five cents or over.
Even at this price, England has been
unable to secure a supply sufficient
for the demand.
New Machines for p. s. f. Corbin.
Although officials of the American
Hardware corporation deny that they
have received any war orders, other
manufacturers consider it strange that
p. & F. Corbin should have Installed
rived very recently. The company is
said to have been removing this type
of machine until a short time ago
but it is said to have come into favor
again for the manufacture of war mu-
nitions. ..--z 4.,..tsa H. ss . .t.
N. & j. Order Is for $500, 900.
The report printed in Saturdays
Herald that North & Judd had re-
ceived another large war order has
proved to be correct and the order
is said to be for accoutrements val
ued at 100000. The company has
received a number of war orders in
the past and the latest means that
the British government has placed it's
o. K. on the concerns goods.
The New Britain Machine company
is said to be working on contracts for
of war that it has received
from other firms. The Stanley Works
and the Corbin Screw company are
also said to be in the business of man
ufacturing munitions for the allies.

over 700 RESERVISTS
HERE READY FOR CALL
Small Army of Local Italians
Prepared to Return
Home. >

IT Italy finds it necessary to call her
reservists to the colors the population
of New Britain will be depleted by at
least 700. The call for MOBILIZATION
has been issued and Vice Consul
Michael Rizzio, whose office is at 20
Academy street, New Haven, knows
where he can put his finger ON over
TOO starwart reservists in this city.
1t is said that all. New Britain re-
servists are accounted for Each has
sent his address to Vice Consul Rizzio
and at the word that he is needed,
will be, ready to pack and return to
the land which gave him birth and
which may need his assistance to
maintain it's national existence.
John DiNonno, son of Emanuel
DiNonno, the Church street ticket
agent, stated today that 700 is a con-
servative figure when estimating the
reservists of the Italian army in New
Britain. Furthermore, Mr. DiNonno
says, every man of them will respond
when his country calls. Through the
system of the consulate, Italy has
been able to keep in black and white
the name of all her reservists in this
country and these have been requested
to inform the vice consul where they
may be found when the word is
flashed that their country needs them.
To the credit of Italian patriotism. it
can be said that none skirked this
duty.

superior no serious attempt was made
to remain masters of the city, which
