BOSTON K. OF C.
 FILES PROTEST
Officials Allege Discrimina tion in Distribution of
 War Funds.

Boston, March 1S-Boston Knights of Columbus are preparing a protest to be sent to Secretaries Baker and Daniels against the manner in which the S2OO. 900 at the disposal of the United War Work campaign is to be distributed. They charge that in alloting the Catholic War Council but 10 per cent. of the fund discrimina- tion was exercised.
 Some controversy has arisen within K. of c. circles In Boston over the protest. The majority will force the sending of the protest, but many members advise against it.
 Decision to send the protest was influenced, 1t is said, by District At torney Joseph c. Pelleiers attack on the manner of distribution. He went to New York Sunday evening, leaving behind him a sharp statement of what he thought of the budget in- dorsed by the Secretaries of War and Navy,

O'Higgins Great
 Hero in So. America

The first of the O'Higgins clan to gain a place in South American his tory was Ambrose known as Anbrosio---who was born in COun- ty Meath. Ireland. in 173O. and died in Lima Peru, 11S years ago today, March IS, 1901. O'Higgins went to Spain when he was a, young man, and then became a trader in Chile. Ob- tairinfs Q. commission in the army, he rose. rapidly and in 17ss was made captain-general of Chile. In 1796 the Irish soldier was elevated to the post of v1ceroy of Peru, and In Lima he reigned with almost regal pomp until his death.
 Even more famous was his son, Bernardo O'Higsins, who, after re- osAvtng his education in England, re- turned to South America to become leader of the Chilean Eebels against 6panash authority. With the assist ancs of a force of Argentinos led by San Martin, he drove the Spaniards from Chile, and was rewarded with the appointment of supreme dictator of the Chilean nation. His rule was benevolent and just, like that of his Gather in Peru, and he is honored by ChEeans as their greatest revolution nry patriot.

Juice of Lemons!
 How to Make Skin
 White and Beautiful

At the cost of a small jar of ordi- nary cold cream one can prepare full quarter pint of the most wonder ful lemon skin softener and com plexion beautifier, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lemons into a bot tie containing three ounces of or chard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months, Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blemtshes sallowness, freckles and tan and is the ideal skin softened, smoothener and beautifier.
 Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra grant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face, neck, arms and hands. It naturally should help to soften. freshen, bleach and bring out the roses and beauty of any skin. It is wonderful to smoother, rough, red hands.-Adv.

MAYOR vETOES
 RESOLUTION BY
 AID. MCFAYOEN

Despite the fact that Mayor Clifford B. Wilson had before him the report of the United States Plumbing Com mission, appointed to investigate plumbing installed in government housing projects in Bridgeport, in which they practically rejected the work, the mayor in a communication last night, vetoed a resolution by Al derman Malcolm MacFayden on the subject. Alderman MacFayden's s resolution called upon the United States Housing Corporation to install plumbing under the United States standards of July, 1918, instead of later standards.
 0a motion of Alderman McManus, the matter was laid upon the table indefinitely As a result, the United States Housing Corporation will be able to go ahead with their work under their old plans. The report or the plumbing commission, published exclusively in The Times-Farmer Sat urday was termed a preliminary re- port" but called the plumbing in stalled in two specific group of houses in this city, unsafe, and recommend ed changes. Although he was not present at the meeting, the mayor is known to have gone over this report carefully.
 The mayors communication reads as follows;
 To the Honorable Common. Council of
 the City of Bridgeport:
 Gentlemen return herewith, without approval, resolutions passed by your honorable body on February 8, 1919, resembling the action of the common council as taken July IS. 1918, relative to building operations of the United States Housing Corpora ton for the following reasons:
 Tests of the plumbing have not been completed on this work and un- til they have been, believe that deti- nite action should be withheld. l de- sire very much to see these houses which have been started by the U. $. Housing Corporation, become a taxa ble asset of and producing revenue for the city of Bridgeport. The U. $. Housing Corporation were in reality the U. s. government itself, and un- der our statutes and under the law ot the realm the U. s. government can take property whenever they may de- sire for public purposes and exercise exclusive jurisdiction over the same, whether relating to buildings or
  not yet taken this step in this partcu- lar instance and l should dislike to see such action anstitued for 1t would mean that this property would be- come tax exempt, so far as the city of Bridgeport is concerned. There are millions of dollars invested here and the loss entailed thereby would be considerable. am of the opinion that an amicable arrangement can be made whereby the city and all con- oerned can be benefited and the in- terests of all properly conserved. As the result of tho tests will not be known until the resolution passed at aforesaid becomes operative, due to the lapse of time. and there being nc intervening meeting of your honora- ole body, I am returning without ap- proval, these resolutions, with the re- quest that your action in passing the same, be reconsidered and the mat ser tabled, or otherwise disposed of until your honorable body is in pos. session of the merits of the case dis closed by the tests that are now be- ing held.
