MRS. WORKMAN SERIOUSLY HURT
 BY MOTORCYCLE
Struck While Crossing the Street by Machine Driven
 by Martin Hodgnott.

Mrs. Lena Workman, of 295 Har- riett street while crossing the road at William and Maple street, at 7:1o this morning, was knocked down by a motor cycle piloted by Martin G. Hodgnott, of 37 Ogden street.
 A call to the Emergency Hospital brought Dr. F. B. Gavlas, who, upon arrival at the scene of the accident, discovered that Mrs. Workman was suffering from severe decorations about the head and body beside sus- taining possible internal injuries. Her condition was so serious that Dr, Gavlas ordered her instant removal to the Bridgeport Hospital for fur ther treatment
 In statement made by Hodgnott he says he was travelling at not more than 15 miles an hour when the in- jured woman stepped off the curb righ tin front of his machine. He swerved to one side to avoid hitting her and she ran in the same direction. It was impossible for him to avoid hitting her and he had no time to either apply brakes or anything else when she stepped in front of his ma chine.

Diminutive Star
 To Wed Lieutenant

New York, July 27.---The engage ment of Miss Marguerite Clark, the famous movie star, to Lieut.. H. Pal merson Williams, U. S. A, was for mally announced Thursday by Miss Clark's sister, Miss Cora Clark. No arrangements have been made for the wedding.
 Lieutenant Williams has purchas- ing commission with the government and has been spending most of his time in Washington. Miss Clark re- turned Thursday from a visit with friends there. Miss Clark first met Lieutenant Williams when she was speaking in New Orleans in the in- terest of the Third Liberty Loan. The young officer assisted her in her work and their friendship grew rap idly.
 Lieutenant Williams is a member of a wealthy New Orleans family, who recently met Miss Clark in Washington, and, 1t is said, were charmed with their sons bride-to-be

SPLENDID WORK
 BY CHILDREN IN WAR STAMP SALES

A number of the children of the public schools have been doing great work in selling War Savings Stamps during the month of July. In the the view of the War Savings commit tee it is unfortunate that the circum- stances require the school children's contest for medals could not start un- til the first of next week, but in the meantime many of the sturdy and patriotic youngsters, without desiring any more credit than that which comes from serving their government, have busied themselves for a large part of the time in the distribution of War Savings and Thrift Stamps and have made excellent records.
 One of the most appealing cases which has come to the notice of the War Savings Committee is that of Miss | Dorothy c. Turner, of 376 Laurel ave- nue, a daughter of Dr. R. E. Turner. She has sold since the close of school over $212 worth of the War Savings and Thrift Stamps. She has had some good sized orders, but also she has made a great many sales Of small CT amounts, thus evidencing her earnestness and ability to stick to her task. From her standpoint it is al- most pity that this fine start cannot be credited to her on the school chill dren's contest, but as the committee sees it, it is only fair that all con- testants should start at once, and so this effort of hers must be credited to patriotic zeal on her part. There are many other cases of this kind which the committee has heard of.

CONSUMPTION
 CAN BE REDUCED

R. J. s. Piggott, member of the state fuel conservation committee, as- serted at the meeting held in the High school auditorium last night un- der the auspices of the Bridgeport branch of thhe National Association of Stationary Engineers that it was his belief that industrial coal con- sumption can be cut down 50 per cent. This can be accomplished by the in stallation of efficient power plant ap- paratus.
 All of the large factories in the city were represented at this conference. William P. Kirk warned those en- gineers who are not fully qualified to conserve coal to study the best meth ods without delay. It will soon be- come a question whether the incom- potent engineer will last or the plant where he is employed closed down by official orders.

OPEN LETTER TO
 THE PRESIDENT
 OF THE CHAMBER

(Continued From Page One) conception to the Hun, it is necessary to consider it from our present exig- ency of war, with our conceded de- plorable deficiency. in airplanes and their paramount necessity. And in this possible calamitous condition of our country and Allies, may I ven- ture to suggest the thought, that the Chamber of Commerce of Bridgeport of which you are its honored presi- dent, could take up this most vital and immediate work of helping the government out of it's present dilemma of shortage in airplanes as indicated and suggested in the letter of the Aeronautical Society of America to the Chamber of Commerce, June 18th, 1918, a copy of which Is hereto at- tached.
 The cooperating influence of this representative body of patriotic public spirited men, would give much needed results to enable our airmen to beat the Kaiser, which must be done or there. will be no foreign business to encourage for the Kaiser will look after that. unless he is first beaten, which is our present work in hand. Therefore our personal duty to our government, to our Allies, to our boys over there and going, to ourselves and to humanity, is to heed our govern ment's persistent call for the immedi- ate production of more and more and better and safer "airplanes with which to beat our enemy, and hereby offer fo,a Chamber of Commerce and all pa triotic bodies and citizens with my best experience, knowledge and energy.
 I foresaw these dangers (now com ] ing thick and fast) from the begin l ming, and for years observed the 1 causes and advocated their ameliora- tion with ever increasing apprehen- l sion of these coming sacrifices, if not only the lives of good men, but the very pick of the best of our city, our state, our nation and allied nations, whose loss is incalculatable to this and coming generations. was right | in my prediction that this unneces- sary menace to life would grow day 1 by day and continue to grow with in- l CTedSlnS momentum, as nave con- 1 servatively depicted through the press.
 Again comes the widely lamented death of Major John Purroy Mitchell ex-mayor of New York, and the daily 1 increasing toll of prominent men, and the best, most skillfu1 and expert aviators, (so vividly forseen by mel that have reached stage or con- dition of mind and heart, that I can not under existing conditions longer refrain from calling upon you, as the
 President of the Chamber of Com merce and therethrough to the peo- pie of Bridgeport, singly and collec- lively to arouse themselves in their
 individual and cooperative might, to
 help abate this terrible sacrifice of
 these valued and valuable lives, which
 will also greatly further the early
 winning of the War for the freedom
 of all mankind, and thus magnify the
 name of Bridgeport over the face of
 the globe and which will incidently
 and subsequently, through it's abound
 ing patriotism rebound to the glory
 and benefit of the Chamber of Com
 merce and the people they will there
 by so truly represent.
 Sincerely,

COMMITTEE TO
 HEAR LAWSUITS

Attorney John W. Banks has been appointed as committee by the Su- perior Court to hear the lawsuits that have arisen out of the construction of 10 houses on Boston and Barnum ave- nues in Stratford. Damage claims which involve $120,OOO are another issue. This hearing is to be held next week as the litigants decided it would save time to have them come before a committee rather than the Superior Court.
 The trouble arose over the suit filed by Barnith Sachs of Trumbull against the Park City Construction Go. for $50,0o0. He claimed to have contracted with Arthur Bard for the 19 houses and alleges that the Con- struction Co. took over the contract. The Construction Co. then filed suits against Sachs for $49,O00 and $20,- % claiming that Sachs made false representations to the effect that the Construction Co. was not financially responsible.

U. s. MEN FIND
 DEAD IN HEAPS
Troops Discover 2,O00 Bod ies in One Horseshoe
 Shaped Area.

With the American Army on the Aisne-Marne Front, July 27 - The American troops advancing along the Marne have discovered thousands of dead Germans who fell during the re- treat before the heavy machine gun fire of the Americans. In one horse shoe shaped area the ground was cov- cred with dead. The Americans bur fed as many as was possible. It is es- timated 2,O00 Germans fell there.
 Farmers along the Marne report having seen the bodies of Germans floating down the stream. The mili- tary authorities are planning some system by which they can clear the river of bodies.
 Three days after the Germans evac- uated Chateau Thierry the Americans found a lone German in Mont St. Pere hiding in a cellar. The prisoner said he was tired of the war and was determined to secrete himself, not withstanding his lack of food and later take a chance by surrendering to the Allies.
 He asserted the German soldiers were dissatisfied with the way affairs were going and that the general opin- ion among them was that the Grown Prince was unable to bring sufficient reinforcements or food supplies to aid the forces being attacked from the south.
 The American soldiers watched with nleasI the nrisoner aDDease his aO- petite after his three days fast. The German requested the Americans moi to report his desertion, saying if they did an he ever got back to Germany he would be shot.
