CALLS ATTENTION TO SOCIAL EVIL
Mayor Brown Says Questionable Conduct Should Be Re ported to Poce-Coal Offices to Be Established in City Hall Tuesday Morning Special Appropriation Needed For Gas and Electric Department.

The prevalenee of the social evil asl it affects the men of the army and navy of the United States is a matter of national concern, said Mayor Allyn l.. Brown in a brief address at the
 February meeting of the court of com
 mon council Monday evening. I know
 that the people of Norwich, ine4ud-
 ing myself, fully realize the inpost-
 aflce of this problem particularly as
 it concerns us locally. There are enough uniformed men visiting our city every week to necessltate our
 making every possible effort to stamp out this menace in Norwich. The po- lice department is doing what it can to suppress it. but I speak of it now E te ask that every citizen cooperate
 by giving to the chief of police or naN- self any information which may as sist to this end I believe it is the patriotic duty of each one to follow this course. Many things are observed by Aifferent Individuals, which are not known by the authorities, ard I ask that such information be reported promptly and then be made available to help for the common good. It will be regarded entirely eonfidentially if such is the wish of the one who gives l it. And what I have said concerning Ii fciandestine sales of liduor to uniform led men.
 Protection For Coal Seekers. I The editor of The Bulletin made a very good suggestion recently in re- gard to the matter of providing somf
 place where persons desiring eeal
 might gather instead of standing ir line out in the cold Acting on this 1 suggestion I have arranged, with the approval of the local fuel administra- itor, to provide to the three local coa. l dealers who are now receiving anthra- l cite coal in Norwich, facilities in the main hallway of the court house 1T the early morning hours of each bus
 mess day, which will furnish theil customers comfortable place 1T
 which to wait in line to order coal The dealers have shown every desire to cooperate. Hereafter, until further t Hetice. each dealer who has any coa to sell. will have his clerk at a tahk l under the sign which bears his pams lin the main hallway Of the cour house at a. m. each business day

HE DEMANDED TRIAL
General DonneIly Accused of Having
Liquor in Army Camp.

Washington, April 25.-Brig. Gen.
arthur b. DonneIly, former adjutant
general OF Missouri, has been detained
at Camp Mills, Mineola, L. l., Wnere he
was in charge of the Sixty-nint bri-
eade of the Thlrty-fifth division, and
Will be tried at Fort Sill, Okla, on
charge OF having liquor in his posses
sion in a dry zone established around
a military camp.
Should he be convicted by the mill
tary authorities, it is understood he
will be dropped from the army.
General Donnelly'S brigade until re-
Gently was at Camp Doniphan, Okla
The inquiry follows General Dom
nelly's refusal to comply with the re-
quest that he resign, made by General
Wright, commandant of the Thirty
fifth division, at Fort Sill. The bril-
gade under General Donnellys COM
mand is composed of the 137th, an all
try regiments and the 12Sth machine
gun company.
In refusing to tender his resignation
General Donnelly demanded trial, and
his detention is said to have been or
dered after this request was granted
Major General Wright is now at Fort
Sill.
The trouble is said to date back
over a month, when several of the bri-
gade were transferred to an arms
school at Fort Sam Houston and an
other colonel was placed in command
of one of the regiments. This officer
was later displaced because of alleged
inefficiency. The charges against Cen
eral Donnelly are said to have been
preferred shortly afterwards.
