Paul Marks Said to Have Been
Roofing for Germany
HOPED GERMANY WOULD WIN

West Main Street Man Alleged to
Have Violated Terms of Federal
Permit-Au the Little Pigs Go to
Market.
Paul Marks of West Main street,
German alien, who is employed at
the Edwin H. Hills Mfg. Co has
caused the town officials considerable
trouble of late. Before the United
States entered the war, Mark is al
legged to have expressed his hope Ger
many would win the war Since the
United States entered the war he has
Teen a little more considerate. A few
weeks ago Lewis Brastow a canvasser
of the Third Liberty loan made
call at Marks home. Brastow told
him his reason for calling at his ome
and Marks said that he would give
nothing to help Uncle Sam in any way
and expr essed the hope that Germany
would win the war, it is alleged.
Rrastow notified the stae police who
took it up with the federal authori-
ties. The latter came to his home
and told him he was in a restricted
district and that he could go nowhere
except between his home on West
Main street and the factory he was
working in. He is said to have
broken his restrictions and was ar
rested by the Federal authorities and
was given hearing. No result of the
nearing has been made public.

Statement of 4 Scout.
Plainville, Conn.
The New Britain Herald.
New Britain, Conn,
1r reply to the statement published
by Scoutmaster E. s. Lackey in Mon
day nights Herald l wish to say that
although Mr.. Lackey has not re-
signed his position as scoutmaster of
the local troop, he has been of little
service to the troop of late. In many
cases partially has been shown and
scouts thrown out Of the troop with
out any reason, A number of tim les
the troop has brought his attention
to certain facts and he has not acted
to the satisfaction of Troop IA. The
statement by Lackey in reference to
the scoutmaster doing the work while
the boys have received the credit is
absolutely incorrect. The fact that
sooutmaster Lackey has devoted all
of his time to the troop has not been
proved in any manner. In closing,
/ wish to say that his statement for
the greater part is incorrect and it
is impossible for him to prove it.
