Washington surprised 3

Washington, Aug 24.-Pope Bene
/ diets explanation, through the United
Press today that atonement for the
wrongs suffered by Belgium at Ger
many s hands must be particularly con.
sidered, gave distinctly favorable
trend to official peace thought today.
This feature of the vatican s state
ment created undisguised surprise al
the state department. 1t may be said
that more friendly feeling toward the
pope's proffers was manifest than at
any time hitherto.
What was behind the pope s original
note has been the object of inquiry for
many days. His statement today clear
ed up many doubts in the minds of Of
ficials here. 1t appears now that speedy
world peace may depend upon success
of the pope in securing Germany IS con-
sent to talk reparation and restitution.
The pope has cleared the way--has
put the question Of justice squarely up
to Germany-and the Teuton answer is
awaited with deep interest.
Too Much Left Unsaid
The United Press learned officially
that the PRESIDENT reference yester-
day to ~ the proper time" for peace
could be interpreted as meaning that
he would want peace when America g
aims have been accomplished. One of
these is restitution of injured states
and reparation for damage done.
Allied embassies saw in the supple
mentary note today a clever play for
support Of radical elements in Rus
sia, the Erzburger and socialist ele
ments in Germany and certain paeifists
in England. The vatlcan's comment on
enforcing any system of government
upon any nation, "cleverly echoed the
recent statement by British Foreign
Minister Balfour, it was said.
British diplomats say, however, that
while the vatican urges definitely the
restoration of Belgium, it still leaves
indefinite the question of restoring
other territory.
In Italian quarters it was emphasiz-
ed that no peace is possible without
realization of Italy's claims to the lost
northern provinces and certain rights
in the Adriatic.

for the purpose of attending the meet
ing.
The purpose Of the meeting was to
hear a report from the committee who
had been appointed to investigate the
feasibility of constructing a surface
water sewer on Woodford avenue.
The report Of the committee consist
ing Of ]. N. McKcrnan, First Select
man johnson and c. III. Calor was
read as follows:
The committee, appointed at the
adjourned town. meeting on October
s, 1917, to investigate the subject of
storm water sewer on Woodford
avenue, wishes to report as follows:
At the outset the committee de-
slres to emphasize the need of such
storm water sewer on this street,
not alone to drain the street surface
water, which in itself is very material,
but to take care of the surface water
and roof water at the properties of
the Marlin Rockwell corporation and
the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing
company. The opportunity to render
valuable service to these two large
taxpayers alone is worthy of our care
full consideration
Upon personal view the committee
found a tile sewer the only reason
able solution of the problem and
would recommend a 12-inch sewer to
be used for storm water only, to run
easterly from the Trumbull Electric
Mfg. company's plant to the Quinni-
piac river at an estimated cost of $2,-
OPS. The present street grade pre-
vents proper drainage by means Of
graded cutters.
Other conditions in connection with
the street layout seem proper to be
mentioned here. Woodford avenue at
present is 20 feet wide north Of a 10
foot right of way of the Connecticut
Company which 20-foot strip was
decided by the said company to the
town for highway purposes. The &C
ceptance of the land offered for high
way purposes by the Marlin Rock
we'll corporation would make an ugly
jog in the street line unless an equally
wide strip of land be secured from adj
joining owners. The committee would
recommend the acceptance of street
of uniform width but thinks this SUBJ
ject should properly come before the
town plan commission soon to be ap-
pointed by the board of selectmen.
Upon investigation, the committee
finds the surface waters on Maple,
Broad, East and East Broad street
may be disposed Of by means Of
storm water sewers emptying into the
Quinnipiac river at the easterly end
of East Broad street.
Following the reading of the COM
mittee's report, which was accepted,
the following resolutions were drawn
up and read to those present:
Resolved, That surface water
sewer be installed on the highway be-
tween East street AMI Quinnipiac riv-
er, on land decided to town of Plain
vile for highway purposes, by the
Connecticut company. Said sewer to

that 1t was imperative that he be

After court session, Schwartz. In
censed because his plans for the week
had been altered, started to express
his opinion of the Berlin town court
in q manner that was anything but
complimentary. His remarks were

Electric company's property and ex-
tend to the Quinnipiac river. Said
sewer to be in accordance with esti-
mate and survey submitted by the
committee appointed by town meeting
on October 8. 1917.
Resolved, That the seleotmen are,
and are hereby instructed to install
said sewer in accordance with plans
and specifications submitted by said
committee on or before July, 1918.
provided that the Trumbull Electric
Manufacturing company and the
Rockwell Drake Corporation pay one
half of the total expense for con-
structing said sewer
Following the reading of the reso-
luton Edward Aspinwall wanted to
know just where the sewer was to
start at the Trumbull plant. At his
request the resolution was read again
and it was explained that the sewer
New Britain herald. [microfilm reel] (New Britain, Conn.) 1890-1976, 1917-10-23

will be started directly in front Of
their office door
Joseph Mccarthy asked If 1t would
be possible to tap the sewer after It
had been constructed and thus al
lowing other places to connect with
the pipe J. H. Trumbull explained
that it was to be strictly a surface
water sewer. On the motion of Jo-
seph Mccarthy the resolution was
adopted.
It is probable that the plans will
be made Immediately by the two Mig.
companies to install the sewer and
that they will relieve the selectnaan of
all responsibility. As things stand
now the town will be assessed ST.
O255O as it's share Of the cost Of
construction and additional costs. If
there are any, will have to be paid
by the two concerns.

Listening to all the evidence as pre-
scented by the state against him, and
then asking for an adjournment when
called upon to testify in his own be-
Harold Woods, who appeared before
Judge George G. Griswod in the town
Eourt this morning, charged with op-
Grating motorcycle on October 20 in
q reckless manner on the Beach
Swamp road. AS Woods seemed ig
norant of court procedure and was de-
sirous of an adjournment so that he
could secure counsel, Judge Griswold
granted the request privilege.
DIR. Roger M. Griswold was called
to the stand as the first witness for
the state. He testified that he was
summoned to the scene of the accident
late Saturday afternoon and found the
victim of the collision, Adolph Walen-
tin, in an unconscious condition, suf-
fering from a fractured skull. He said
that he ordered the man removed to
the New Britain General hospital.
Where he died that night of his in
juries. DR.. Griswold further stated
that Walentin was found lying in the
roadside approximately twenty-fou
feet from the place where he was
struck.
Louis LAMA and Carl Schwartz also
testified for the state. Both men de-
Elared that they were walking with
Waientin at the time of the accident
and both stoutly asserted that they
did not hear any warning given.
Schwartz said that he didn't see the
motorcycle approaching until it was
within twenty-five feet of him. fde
could not tell how fast the machine
was travelling. He said that Walentin
= tried to avoid being hit by jumping
to the left side Of the road while
LAMA and he went to the right. There
were no other vehicles in sight al
the time, he said.
After bringing forth all tho states
evidence, Prosecutor Gibney asked
Woods If he wished to speak in his
own behalf. After taking the OATH
Woods asked Griswold for an adjourn
ment. He said that he had been mott
fed of his arrest only last night and
had not had the time to arrange fo1
his trial.
Judge Griswold questioned Woods
asking him If he did not expect to be
In court when he killed Il man. Woods
replied that he had consulted Judge

his lawyer could not be in court UNI
til Thursday he wanted an adjourn
