Prof. Taft Discusses
 Entangling Alliances

New York, Feb. 10.-The question whether the United States should fol- low the policy of Washington and keep out of entangling alliances must be settled, William H. Taft told hard ware. men in convention here yester- day, "by comparing our position then and our world relations then with our position now and our world re- lations as they are now"
 Owning the Hawaiians and the Philippines makes this country "an Asiatic power," guarantee of the in- tegrity of Panama and ownership of the Danish West Indies and Porto Ri co "a South American power" the former president declared. MT. Taft said impending events, make of the highest importance our world rela- tions and the country has obligations making it a world power, which it cannot ignore.
 In alluding to the Japanese ques- ton, MT. Taft said:
 "On the Pacific coast we have three great states, California, Oregon and Washington. They wabbled some in the last election, but they are still entitled to our protection"
 we are facing war now," MT. Taft added. 1T believe the only policy we can pursue is to have it understood that every made who comes to man hood shall spend a certain time in training to be a soldier against the time when he may be needed. Call it anything you like-military train ing, conscription or not-it is neces- sary.'
 While Germany if unimpeded could land 5OO,O00 men here within six weeks, the speaker said, that could not be done eff we had the biggest navy"
 MT. Taft supported President Will sons declaration that in another great war America would not remain neu- tral.

STATE REGENT URGES D. 4. R.
 TO ACTIVITY
Says Spirit of '76 Bids Mem bers To Rally to Support
 of President.

Elizabeth Barney Buell., state re- gent, Daughters of the American Revolution has sent to each chapter in the state a circular letter urging each local organization to become a center of activity in the promotion Of preparedness. The letter follows:
 Chapter Regents ana >Mempers: The President of the United States has severed diplomatic relations with Germany. Our country stands for democracy and liberty, for law, or der and the principles of humanity, for which our forefathers fought and our foremothers worked and prayed. If we are called to the supreme sac rifices of war in their defense the Connecticut Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution will be found in the forefront of service for Home and Country It would be slur upon their patriotism to imagine other wise. Home preparedness is the solemn duty of the hour
 Every chapter, therefore, in the state should be a center of activity in the promotion of preparedness, taking up that form of effort best suited to it's opportunities.
 ''I therefore urge each chapter to redouble It's efforts to increase the membership of the American/ Red Cross, sending as many names as pos sible to our state chairman, Mrs. c. L. F.>1 Robinson, No. .1161 Prospect avenue, Hartford.
 1T earnestly recommend, in addi- ton, that each chapter regent ap- point Red Cross committee in her chapter through which it may CO., operate with the American Red Cross in response to the appeal just issued from Red Cross Headquarters in Washington.
 'eThe spirit of '76 bids us rally one and all, regardless of creed or party, to the support of the President, glad ly and loyalty upholding him in his stand. for the honor of the nation, for the just defense of it's citizens in the peaceful exercise of their rights, and for the maintenance of humanity and civilization in the world.
 sincerely yours,
 ''ELIZABETH BARNEY BUELL.,

Tie Up In Trolley
 System Again Today

Cars on the State street line were operated on a disorganized schedule between and o'clock today. The cars ran two and three together for some time. An inspector said the tie up was caused by the breaking down of a coal truck on the trolley tracks near Park avenue.
 At SAP last evening the entire ser vice of the city was interrupted for IT minutes. The bursting of a, condenser tube at the power plant in Seaview avenue was said to be the cause. The jitneys were overcrowded on both oc- casions and even then hundreds of passengers were obliged to walk or wait in the cold. General Manager c. H. Chapman said the bursting in terruption of the service last evening was unavoidable. =

FAMOUS OLD HALL FALLS VICTIM OF.
 AXE OF WRECKERS.
Assembly Hall Is Being Razed; Site to be Used
 by Christian Union.

Brfdgeport's older buildings, many of which have been famous or infamous in the past history of the city, are fast disappearing as the demands of progress encroach upon their crum- bling walls or dimfnutive construc- ton.
 Among the latest marks of a past generation to fall before the axe of a gang of building wreckers is Bridge ports famous Assembly Hall, which from 1924 to 1865, was the only meet ing place of those who wished to hear the latest musical productions, hold ment, or dance.
 With it goes the older Lancashire
 .Ise which in the early days of Bridgeport served as residence for the members of the Btrdsey family and later passed into other hands to become the seat of the great policy drawings in this section of Connecti- cut, abolished about 20 years ago.
 In the days when Bridgeport was noted especially for it's Haunting of the open door to the stranger day and night, the assembly hall was better known as Connors' restaurant. In a few days the walls of this for Iner meeting place, built before Frank lin Hall. will have disappeared There will be nothing left to recall the great meetings which were held there dur ling the Civil War. when the eloquent orators of Bridgeport, swelled the ranks of the volunteer army which established the loyalty of Connecticut throughout the United States. In it's place, however, will rise the walls of new lodging house which I is to be erected by the Bridgeport Christian Union. At least on the same
 site the cause of humanity will be fos.
 tered as in the years gone.
