165 900 Members of Catholic Benevo- lent Association Notify Wilson of Personal and Financial Aid.

At the national meeting of the La- dies Catholic Benevolent Association, held in Atlantic City last week, and which has a Norwich branch, it was decided that President Wilson could draw not only on the services of the 165. 900 members of the association but would have at his disposal a fund of $2, 500, ,O00 accumulated by the or ganization during the past twenty seven years, for any needs the United States of America may designate.
 The nine hundred delegates in at tendance were not satisfied until Miss Kate Mahoney, of Troy, N. Y, presi- dent of the association, had wired President Wilson. putting him in touch with the fact that 1850 chap ters of the organization, representing every state in the Union, were not only prepared, to carry out any war work the government might direct, but that he might also depend upon 1t that the project assigned would be ad- vanced without resource to govern ment or state aid.

MAN PAROLED SATURDAY

Released from Norwich State Hospital, Michael Cermola Assaulted Relatives.

A tall. dark complexioned young man entered the Howard avenue station last night about 9.30 o'clock, says Sundays s New Haven Union- and inquired of Sergeant Owen Marlowe in charge of the precinct whether or not man named Michael Carmola of S4S Con gress avenue was wanted for breach of the reace. The night sergeant glanced over the day report and from the description set down of the man wanted he recognized the inquirer as the party.
 was relea sed from the state hospital for the insane at Norwich but yester- day, and that he had brutally assaulted his mother-in- law. Mrs. Hannah O'Brien of 654 Congress avenue, and his sister in Jaw. Catherine Costello, during the afternoon.
 F'earing that Cermola might make da sh for liberty if he made move from behind the desk to arrest the man Sergeant Marlowe scribbled message on a sheet of paper and handed it to a reporter standing close by. It read: Get me a uniformed officer at once. Hurry The scribe dashed out into the street and encountering Officer Mi chae1 Maloney, returned to the precinct where the officer at a signal from the sergeant pinned Cermola from behind and dragged him into a cell
 The sergeant's bit of strategy not only frustrated Cermola's attempt to secure information concerning the pc- lice attitude toward him but undOubt- edly saved the city money which would have been spent in sending detectives out of town after the man. The cir cumstances of the case. as given out by the police. are that Cermola re turned from Norwich on parole yester- day noon and made straight for the home of his mother-in-law where he committed a vicious assault upon her and his sister-in law. heating them both into onsciousness and fleeing from the house via a rear exit just as police from the Howard avenue pre- cinct req ched the scene. He eluded the officers and a searching party from the precinct was assigned to trail him. They were unable to pick up any clues to his whereabouts. Just what prompted Cermola to visit the precincet and inquire concerning the search for him is difficult to under -s| stand He is held on serious breach of peace charges under heavy bond for trial tomorrow morning in the city court.

SAYS SHORE LINE
 SHOULD BETTER CONDITIONS.
Public Appeal Made to the Public
 Utilities Commission.

A pubic appeal to the public utilities commission in regard to the running of the Shore Line Electric road is made by Edwin Oviatt, editor of the Yale Alumni Weekly, whose son, Sid ney Ovlatt, was badly hurt in the North Branford wreck. The boy is at present in the Guilford sanatorium, being treated for his injuries. In his appeal he says;
 TO the Public Utilities, Commission
 of Connecticut:
 "GentIemen: Incredible as it may <eem now, it is highly probable that no improvement will be made in traveling conditions on the Shore Line Electric unless something radical is done about it. As one whose son was badly in jured in the North Branford wreck, l think it high time that the road was made either to protect and serve the public or quit business.
 AS to some obviously possible bet terments:
 T. Why need car round a curve between hidden banks at full speed? Yet every traveller on this road knows that is done as a routine matter, and chances taken every mile of the line
 "2. Why need the road end it's run at the New Haven station when it could end at State and Ferry streets, transfer it's passengers 10 the city troneys and save 20 minutes running time that now necessitates this ter
 ''3. Why does the public allow the road to use it's men for such long periods as it is commonly said they are made to work on and around Sundays and holidays?
 A. Why should this road he allow ed to let it's rolling stock run down instead of improving is so as to avoid such terrible catastrophes as this wreck?
 No one who has come into personal contact with the human suffering of this wreck will be satisfied until some thing is done to force this company to run safe or stop running"

Two automobiles, one driven by Pe- ter Peraldo of Durham street and the other by George R. Brown of South Canterbury, who operates his car as public service machine, crashed into each other at the june tion of West Main street and Eliza beth street about eight o'clock Sun day evening.
 The Brown machine was coming up West Main street while the Peraldo car was coming down. Brown started to turn into Elizabeth street in front of the other machine but thinking he could not make it turned his car to the right. Peraldo seeing Brown mak- ing for Elizabeth street turned his car to the left just at the same mo- ment that Brown turned to the rigmht. The machines came together about in the middle of the street badly smashing both machines.
 In the Peraldo car was Aman- da Lanelois who was badly shaken up. She was taken onto the porch or
