ALLLECE HOADLEY
 TOOK LARGE SUMS FROM COMP ANY

Separation of the items to show what is alleged to have been devoted to her personal use and what used for the company was the gist of a motion made in the Superior Court today be- fore Judge Frank D. Haines by At torney E. K. Nicholson, representing George w. Hoadley, and in action brought against him by the American 6, British Manufactur Co.
 Hoadley, former officer of the company, is accused of having di verted large sums of money to his own use while occupying that posi- tion. Civil suit to recover has been entered in the Superior Court. The aggregate is very large.
 A bill of particulars filed by At torney w. B. Boardman for the plain tiff was objected to because it includ- ed all monies received from the com pany by Hoadley since 1903 until about year ago, but does not specify which sums are alleged to have been for Hoadley's own use, and which for the use of the company.
 Judge Haines, after hearing consid- erable argument, took the files and reserved decision.

NURSES AID CRYING NEED OF BRIDGEPORT
 AS INFLUENZA GROWS

Health Officer Dr. Walter H. Brown today made wide spread appeal for aid in the fight against the spanish Influenza epidemic in this city In addition to asking aid from the State Department Health Dr. Brown also called upon the United States Public Health service for assistance Some sponse has been made the appeal sent out by the local health authorities and the Red Cross for medical and nursing assist ance but the few who have volunteered in the past day Will not meet the present demand.
 Mrs II. w. Feck head of the Minute Women of Bridgeport immediately mplored who have received Red Cross Training to respond to the pressing need of the hour.
 While the situation in Bridgeport today termed as un- changed by Dr. Brown the increase in the number of cases for the past 2 hours again showed decline over the figures for the previous 24 hours Up until nine o'clock this morning. 75 new reported bringing the total number of people affected in Bridgeport 46 The increase yesterday 24 As the previous day. nine deaths again report the authorities for the 24 hour period The number of Brdgeporers who have succubed the disease stands at 62.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-10-18


 Regarding the nursing situation, Mrs. IT. W Fleck of the Minute Wo- men, today Issued the following state ment:
 "It is my personal opinion, and the opinion of the Red Cross and Minute Women organizations, that women and girls in Bridgeport there were 700 of them---who took advan- tage of the Red Cross courses in nursing last year should come to the 1 frcnt in the present emergency. The courses in nursing and care of the 1ll were given for. just such a situa ton as we have in Bridgeport at the present time, and 1t is a shameful condition when these people who gained their knowledge through the efforts of the Red Cross, will not vol unteer to atd that organization in the present crisis. The need for nurses is not only a national or municipal one---it is a personal one. Many of the people who refuse to volunteer now would be the first to ask for aid if they, or members of their families were stricken. Bridgeport women have always done their share in emer- gencies and 1t certainly is not a pa triotto act for them to fall down in one of the greatest of all emergencies. The Red Cross is an organization that has a. reputation of ministering to the needs of the helpless. These women who took advantage of the

the result of the war had been such as to place the throne in danger. It stated that Hungary must have full autonomy
 Hungary feels herself to be in full accord with the ideas spreading throughout the world along the lines of the notable principles of President Wilson's address," the address con- tinued.
 Hungary must be completely inde- pendent, must have general electoral suffrage and the relations between Mathematics in the country must be governed by the principles enunciated by President Wilson.
 Hungary is in danger of invasion. Hungarian troops must be brought back and non-Hungarian troops sent away"
 Dr. Wekerle said: The protection of our integrity as state and the maintenance of our unity are tasks we must accomplish at all costs. We desire to grant indi- vidual rights to the. different Gation- alities who have lived among us for a thousand years. We are not contra dieting our traditional point of view
