Houses of the story-and-a-half type
are being built very extensively by
those who are inclined toward the bun
galow style of architecture, but who
do not wish to sacrifice the second
story bedrooms. In this type they are
still able to get much of the distinc-
tive external beauty of the bungalow,
yet they may easily have ample room
for sleeping accommodations on the
second floor. For those who do not
object to the first-floor bedroom, and
who do not like the inconvenience of
climbing stairs, there is usually in
eluded in the design of such house a
single bedroom on the first floor. With
such an arrangement it is possible to
meet the desires of every member of
the family.
The artistic detail which may be in
Guided in the external design of the
story -and-a-half house cannot help but
furnish satisfaction to any ordinary
taste. The low, broad lines common
to the architecture of our western
coast may be had in many distinctly
attractive forms. The design is easily
modified to please those who are not
so strongly impressed with the popular
desire for western types. This flexi-
bility in the external style, taken to-
gether with the many conveniences
and pleasing possibilities of the in
terror design, have earned this modi-
fed type of house just popularity.
A particularly interesting example is
illustrated here. 1t is a house of suffi-
Gent size to accommodate the average

exceptionally well handled, the dis

ATTACKED BY
 SENATOR HOkE SMITH
Georgian Scores Britain's Lawless Treatment of
 America's Cotton Trade

Washington, Jan. 20.-Great Brit was the subject of vigorous and eN- haustive speech in the senate today by Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, who pleaded for action to prevent England
 expense of the United States while
 attempting to destroy Germany com-
 mercially. He declared that the
 rights of citizens of the United States and other neutral nations were being
 recklessly disregarded, and emphas-
 ized particularly what he denounced
 as Great Britain's lawless treatment
 of America's cotton trade.
 Discussing the action of the allies
 in proclaming cotton as contrapaha,
 the senator asserted that cotton had
 not been used or needed by Germany or her allies in the manufacture ol war munitions for more than elgh1
 months. He quoted from statenehC prepared for him by Howard w. blple' now in Washington after a trlp 'o Germany, who reported that ne ndo learned through personal lnVesttsa- ton. that Germany. had ysdeYeioPeh q 1 process for using wood pup as ! cbaaner and more effective substitute for cotton in the manufacture of ex- plOsiVes. Senator Smith declared that only once before in history had cotton been declared contra band, and it was done then during the Russo Japanese War bv Russia who promptly gave way in the face of a protest from Great Britain that the action was illegal. British auth critics were quoted also
 to prove that under international law foodstuffs are subject to seizure only when actually consigned to the armed forces of an enemy.
 Without war munitions, foodstufts and cotton from this country, de- clared the senator. Great Britain could not carry on the war, feed her
 population or keep her million and a
 half people employed in the Lanca- shire cotton mills at work sixty days, nor accomplish her scheme for world wide domination of commerce. lie added: The lawlessness of Great
 Britain has increased greatly during
 the past twelve months. Each day brings new evidence of disregard for neutral rights.
 By tirmness, but peacefully, neutrals
 can easily obtain their rights from both bellgerents.'

DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
 IN JEWELRY STORE
Four Crooks Depart With Big Haul from Hult-
 gren's.

bold robbery was perpetrated at the jewelry store of c.

Hultgren in selecting a watch the fourth, it is believed, made his way behind the rear of a counter on the opposite side of the store, securing the box. On a signal being passed the quartet left the place, separating at the door, three going in the direc- tion of Main street and one down Arch street.
 MT. Hultgren, who has been i'll for the past few weeks came down town this noon to relieve his son while he went to dinner and it is be- lieved that the crooks were awaiting this opportunity. A few minutes prior to their departure, Joseph k. Hult- gren came back and began to show the trio some watches. He said this afternoon that the actions of the men were suspicious, but he did nnr suspect that the money was gone until few minutes later when he went to the place where it had been laid. He reported the matter at once to the police and gave a good descrip tion of the thieves. They were all we'll dressed and smooth shaven.

CONG. 0AKEY OBJECTS
Does Not Agree With Major Pillsbury That Middletown-N New Britain Canal Is Purely a Docal Project.
(Special to the Herald. l

Washington, Jan. 20-Discussing the unfavorable report of Major Pills bury on the proposed canal from MiddIetown to Bristol, Congressman Oakley said: T fully agree with the major as far as the canal to Bristol is concerned, it does not seem to me to be a feasible undertaking, but do not agree with him as far as his report concerns New Britain. It is not purely a local project There are many industries between New Britain and the Connecticut river that would be benefited by the con- struction of the canal"
 He said that he would willingly join with the citizens of New Britain and make an appeal to the board of review for rivers and harbors to overrule the district officer He is of the opinion that such an appeal could be successfully made.
