good in Norwich which, they said, is due in large part to the efforts of Fire Chief Howard L. Stanton who has kept the local fire hazards to a mini mum. The inspectors had no com plaint as to the way things are being looked after in Norwich. They did find refuse in some allcyways, but this they said was only temporary condi- tion and was being taken care of prop erly. Refuse lies in alleyways in several cases because there are no available cellars.
 The inspe~to%s are fire insurance in spectors who are giving two days a week towards this important work to aid the government to conserve it's re- sources and to prevent loss by fire. They, sai1 Thursday that they had found no antagonism in making their inspections as it is pretty generally realized that loss of retail or whole sale stocks by fire or destruction of manufacturing equipment by fire would be serious matter at the present time. These surveys have nothing to do with the fire rates as the inspectors are being loaned to the government by the insurance companies.

GAS SITUATION
 VERY MUCH iMPRSVED
Car of Steam, Goal Was Received on " Thursday.

The gas situation in this city is very much improved as a car of steam coal arrived Thursday and is being used to generate for the local supply. If the supply of steam coal holds out until gas coal car. be secured the plant will be able to continue in operation. The plant is entirely without gas coal and were it not for the fact that the of fcia1s were able to secure a. shipment of steam coal the plant would have been forced to shut down.
 The apparatus for making water gas which has been shut down for a few days for cleaning has been opened again and will be in full operation today. While this apparatus is capa- bic of producing a large amount it would not be able to supply the re- Quired amount if the coal supply should be exhausted.

ABOUT SERVICE FLAGS.
Design Has Not Been Officially Ap-
 proved and Ohio Man Claims a

Many people and organizations will be interested to learn that neither President Wilson nor the government has indorsed the conven- tional design of war service flag that is being sold by many stores for dis play from dwellings, business houses, clubs and Fraternity houses to show by the number of stars how many per- sons from that particular place are marine corps. Secretary Baker, &C., cording to the New York Times, said that the war department had not given it's official approval to the design. When he was told that President Will son was credited with having approved the design he, said that such a report was incredible.
 The question of whether the gov ernment or the president had in- ,dorsed the conventional service flag was brought forward by the publiea- tion of Washington dispatch in which it was said that a patent de- sign on service flag had been granted by the United States patent office and that a firm in Brattleboro, Vt, had written to the New York Times that it was informed by the manufacturers that the design was patented and a royalty of 10 per cent. would have to be paid on the sale of such flags. Tn it's letter to The New York Times the BrattIe- boro firm said:
 We are astounded to learn that this flag, adopted the government, recommended by the president, and sold mostly to mothers whose sons are in the service, should be the private monopoly of some individ- ual."
 The design was patented by R. L.. Queisser, "a business man of Cleve- land, Ohio, who was an officer in the National Guard and served on the Mexican border. Secretary Baker said recently that MT. Oueisser had shown him the design and he prob ably had expressed himself as liking it, but there had been no official in dorsemenF by himself or the war de- partment.
 Secretary Baker, has given pernnis- sion to the chief clerk of the war department to have prepared a serv- ice flag showing by the stars it will bear the number of civilian eTn- ployes of the war department who have entered the military service se5 all told. It is intended to dis play thfs flag from the main en- trance to the department building. Inquiry Indicates tha. the design was similar to that patented by Mir. Queisser and the question is now raised whether the department will be liable to a claim for the pay n1ent of royalty or take the conse- auences of infringement of a design r3ates1fed. s,-s

The Labor Question.

The necessity of considering seri- sously 'the possibility of any further demands on the labor supply" has led the Connecticut State Council of De- fense, through it's committee on man power and labor, to address letters 'to~ the tobacco growers of Connecticut asking them concerning their plans for 1918 acreage. The letters assure the growers that it is for their own 'advanfaee that the facts concerning pfaAs for 1918 crops be understood as soon as poGdble.
