Commissioner Titcomb lost to the

sufficient salary. The work of the
fish and game department has in
creased tremendously in recent years
and there are very few men in the
state capable of conducting it to ad-

to lose Mr. Titcomb at present.

English Sailors
Once Retired Are
Again on the Sea

London, March 14.-The number
of old sailors who have returned to
their trade after retirement, owing to
the exceptional chances opened in the
merchant marine by wartime rates of
payment, is emphasized by the num-
bers Of old men who are rescued from
day to day after encounters between
small British trading ships and sub
marines. A Lowestoft fishing boat
which was torpedoed the other day
had a skipper 68, a ships "boy" of
81, while the ages Of the other men
were Ga, 68, 50, ~ and Is. The crew
Of the three-master Mary Watkinson,
which was among this months casu-
alties, contained eight men over IA.
1t is estimated that in all the British
fishing fleets, majority of the crews
at present engaged are over 55.

ITO all the Good People of Bridge
port, Greeting:
Whereas, The Bridgeport Chris
tan Union rightfully is considered one
of the chief assets of the city, render
ing service of inestimable value to
the community, and
Whereas, More than two hundred
of the most active and public spirited
citizens Of Bridgeport have volunteer
ed their services as workers in the
for the purpose of raising $4,000 for
the erection of building for the
Bridgeport Christian Union, and
Whereas, The success of this
movement requires that the amount
sought be obtained by noon Of Satur-
day, March II, and,
Whereas, Providence has blessed
Bridgeport bounteously, so that the
business Of the citizens and of the
community is in a highly prosperous
condition,
Nov, Therefore, as Mayor of the
City Of Bridgeport, I hereby call on
the people Of this city to contribute as
generously as possible to this most
worthy enterprise, in the realization
that the welfare of the city depends in
large measure on the success of the
undertaking, and that this project is
one which should appeal to the civic
pride of every member of our COM
munity. The movement is Of such
Importance to our city that it must
not fail. With the support of all our
people it cannot fail.

to take charge of the search for the
girl. He has questioned college stu
dents who were acquainted with Ruth,
members Of her family, Mrs. Cocchi
and the motorcycle policemen who
knew Ccochi. None Of them has been
able to help him to any great extent
in finding the girl.
Those persons who think the girl
is still alive cannot explain her fall
ure to write home to her grief-strick-
en- parents The members of the
family deny the insinuations that
Ruth's home life was not ideal. They
declare she had everything that
growing girl could desire.
Every day that passes without word
fom the girl strengthens the bellet
that the Cruger case is to take rank
with the disappearance of Dorothy
Arnold as one of the city's unexplained
mysteries.
