BRIDGEPORT HIGH
BEATS MERTDEN

Meriden, Nov I'm a game fea-
tured by rough playing Bridgeport
High school defeated Meriden High
here Saturday to the tune of 80 to O..
before a large crowd.
Meriden was greatly out-weighed
by the heavy Bridgeport team, which
to date has not been defeated. Time
and again the heavy Bridgeport backs
would tear into the Meriden line for
big gains, Smashing through by sheer
weight. Bridgeport scored almost at
will in the first half, three touch
downs being registered but in the
second half Meriden took a brace, and
held Bridgeport more evenly.
Bridgeport made great use of the
forward pass, scoring several touch
downs on long passes hurled by the
Bridgeport backs On the other
hand, on the few occasions that Meri-
den attempted the aerial style.
Bridgeport invariably recovered the
ball
Bridgeport scored one touchdown in
the first quarter, two in the second
and one each in the last two periods
kicking the last two goals MerTder
had no chance to score as the ball was
constantly in her territory, and she
made but two first downs

100000, 900 IN GOLD
RESCUED BY RUSSIANS

New York, Nov. Son the author
!ty of the Russian Embassy at Wash
lngton, A. J. Sack, director of the
Russian Information Bureau, an
nounced last night that 500, 900. 900
rubles ($4OO, OOO,OOO) of Russian gold
taken by the Bolshevild from Petro-
grad had been saved by the Omsk
government.
The Omsk government is generally
recognized, Mr.. Sack asserted. as the
foundation for the reorganization Of
Russia. The gold represents two
thirds of the reserve in the Russian
treasury at the tine the Bolsheviki
obtained control in Petrograd late in
1917. 1t was sent by them to Kaxan
and thence to Samara. Agents of the
Onsk government got control of the
gold and shipped 1t to Omsk.
News Of the coup was received in
Washington yesterday from NJ. Mich
aIloff. Secretary of Finance at Omsk,
according to Mr.. Sack. Recent ad-
vices, Mr.. Sack said, indicated the
Omsk government rapidly is gaining
recognition among the anti-Bolshevik
councils as the nucleus for the forma-
ton Of a conservative government,

1.-THE hearing, yesterday, was but
the beginning of an active campaign
to be waged in Bridgeport against
the grocers who are wilfully violating
the food regulations regarding the
sale of stated amount of substitute
with wheat flour" said D. Fairchild
Wheeler, local food administrator,
this morning, when speaking of the
round up of violators yesterday.
1--WE have had many complaints and
are going to put an end to the vio-
lations of store keepers who openly
defy the government.
1.-The business of the aw-abiding
grocer must be protected, and we are
going to do it. The penalties i'm
posed yesterday are considerably
lighter than the ones which will be
given in future. All are now warned,
and have the example of the cases
tried today"
Robert Scoville. Food Administrator
for the State of Connecticut, express
ed surprise at the number of offend
ers, and instructed local officials to
deal summarily with the vioIators who
failed to put in an appearance. Mr..
ScovilIe also thanked the investiga-
tors for their patriotic efforts to aid
the government in the enforcement
of the regulations.
In spite of the lamentations and
sworn denials of several Bridgeport
grocers heavy fines and penalties
were imposed upon violators at
hearing held yesterday afternoon be-
fore State Food Administrator Rob-
ert Scoville, and the local Admins
traitor D. Fairchi1d Wheeler.
Mr.. and Mrs. Laura Ginsberg, who
conduct a grocery store at Is Column
bia street, were fined 500. They de-
MED having ever sold flour without
substitute to either the representa-
tive of the Food Administration or
any other customer. However I'M
der the clever cross examination of
E. ]. McManus, attorney for the Food
Administration the husband and wife
told conflicting stories concerning the
amount of substitute sold. When the
fine of 500 was imposed, to be paid
some time this week to the United
War Work fund, the lamentations of
the Ginsbergs were both loud and
prolonged. They were finally induc-
ed to leave the room, but kept COM
ing back and interrupting the pro-
cedure of other cases.
Jacob GuIlub, who conducts a store
at 1S45 Stratford avenue, it was or
dered first; that a notice be put up
on his store for an indefinite period
of time stating that the proprietor
was a wilful violator of the food laws;
second, he will be prevented from
purchasing from any wholesaler in
the United States any licensed goods,
such as flour and sugar, for the dura-
ton of the war.

may continue for awf1Aae It is evident
that Germany alone must soon sue
cumb. A financial crash in that
country already seems to be under
way.
Copper shares continue TO be look
ed upon as attractive peace stocks and
buying opportunities such as may be
offered in them during market weak
ness ought not to be overlooked. Cop
per Gossip, a leading trade organ, has
this to say in speaking of heavy con-
sumption of copper metal: when
NORMAL times return and artificial re-
strictions become unnecessary, there
is no doubt that pent up proclivities
OF local and foreign leaders will as
sert themselves to bring about poten-N
tial market activities of which there
has been little evidence for a long
time. When the industry of the world
is again on a peace basis there will be
a tremendous demand from numerous
quarters. Radical changes may be
expected, but deferred enterprise will
then be taken up and all the con-
structive activities of the country will
feel the highly stimulating effect of
A
wave of activity is, therefore, expect
ed when reconstruction sets in after
the war" The fixed price of 26,
cents per pound is continued until
January 1.
More than usual interest attached
to the declaration of dividends and
the publication of the quarterly earn-i
ings of the U. S. Steel Corporation
this week. The reduction in thai
amount of extra dividends is looked
upon as conservative, and probably I'M
preparation for REIMBURSEMENT to peace
conditions. The corporation is earn
ing at a rate Of SIS share, based on
the September quarter earnings. The
fact that the corporation is generally
looked upon as a semi-war concern
may make the movements of Steel
common rather erratic during the
change from war to peace.
British financial interests are now
admitting that England has changed
from a creditor to a debtor Nation as
a result of the war, and that the
United States has assumed first place
on account of huge sums lent to the
Allies. Just as British foreign COM
MERGE reached gigantic proportions
before the war as a result of financial
supremacy, so may American trade,
aided by the many new ships we are
building, fill the treasures of the
great corporations of this country af-
ter the war. The securities of those
concerns actively promoting this bust
ness will be in demand among invest
ors where the management is found
to be of the first grade.

WatSOn's
Weekly
Letter
1IIIIITIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

The action of the Federal Reserve
Board in cutting down the supply of
money for Wall Street purposes and
the subsequent reduction of loans by
the banks have been instrumental in
forcing a substantial amount of liqui-
dalton in the stock market accom-
panied by actively declining prices in
the more speculative issues. Bear
ing upon the subject and emphasizing
its effect, We note the following item
in the Boston News Bureau publica-
ton under date of October 81: Some
New York houses are out with a cir
cular that only cash orders and no
margin business will be accepted"
There is no doubt that the market
is in a better technical condition than
before the house-cleaning took place,
for many weak accounts have been
removed. Furthermore, stocks ap
pear to have been going into hands
well able to carry them. There has
been no real impairment of real val
ues, and the present situation is only
temporary. There may be further
readjustment involving additional
liquidation, but good buying oppor
tunities will be offered by sound Sc
curities, many of which are selling be-
low intrinsic value levels.
Pending digestion of the new con-
dition of affairs, we believe conserva-
tive action on the part of those ac-
tive in speculative investment will be
the part of wisdom. Frequently,
what may be the spectators woe is
the investors opportunity, and this
thought should be kept in mind when
unsettling factors like the money
stringency make their presence felt
upon quoted prices. The railroad
stocks in the dividend-paying class
offer good opportunities to those who
have ample resources and patio zee.
--latest war news suggests that the
shell of Germany is cracking. With
Bulgaria surrendered, Turkey throw
ing herself on the mercy of the Allies
and disintegrating Austria, appealing
to Washington to hasten peace, the
beginning of the end is plainly in
sight, and it is we'll for the investment
community to get into state of pre-
paredness for peace. Whether or not
the revolution from autocracy to peo-
pies rule in Germany is effected VIC
lently or peaceably, such change is
evidently at hand, and while fighting
