ANSONIA LEADS IN
SALE OF STAMPS
About 20 Towns and Cities Ex-
coed Quota in W. s. s. Drive

Hartford, Jan. 3.--Approximately
went "over the top" in the War Saw
ings campaign during the past year.
according to announcement made to-
day by the Connecticut War Savings
committee Howell Cheney, retiring
state director, stated that 1t mao maj
Iv been agreed that the maturity value
would be reckoned In computing
whether a comm unity had attained its
Quota For that reason, per capita
sales of 1850 or over will be used in
determining if a town has raised its
War Savings allotment.
Although definite figures are not
vet complete, it was nnounced today
that the following com m unfties had
undoubtedly attained their quotas Of
$3.50 or over: Greenwich, New
Canaan. Norwalk, Avon, East Wind
sor, Manchester, Simsbury. Union
Vile, Windsor Locks, WATERFOWL,
East Hampton, Portland, Ansonia,
Derby, New London, Old Lyme, Ver-
non and Willimantic. There will he
other communities, it is believed. that
will show their quotas when final hg-
ures are announced.
Ansonia still leads all communities
with per capita. sales which will prob
ably be in excess of s23 cash value,
followed closely by New London with
about s22. Other towns which ex-
ceeded $40 were Willimantic, Man
chester and probably Vernon.
Mr. Cheney said today that each
town which had attained it's quota
would be given an appropriate flag
similar TO those used in tho recent
Liberty Loans. These flags, IL is ex~
pected, will be given prominent posi-
tons in each locality.

YOUTH APPEARS
AFTER SEARCH
BY THE POLICE
Arthur Balm Is Dismissed After
Giving Up in Connection With
Automobile Accident.

Arthur Balm, T34 Third street,
surrendered to the police Saturday
afternoon after having learned that
he was sought in connection with
an automobile smasnup
Balm is alleged to have been the
cause of an accident which took
place at Fifth avenue and Twenty
sixth street, Saturday morning at
4:30, in which his 5-passenger
Grant collided head-On into an au-
tomobile driven by George Voege,
1117 West Second street, Daven-
port.
Both cars were wrecked, and the
one driven by Balm was abandoned
on the spot. 1t was said at first
that the youth was with two wom-
en- and left in hurry saying that
he was intent upon boarding an
early Rock Island train.
Driving With Aunt.
Balm asserted that he was driV-
ing with his aunt, and in his hurry
to catch a train was perhaps a bit
reckless. He admitted leaving the
car as it was wrecked but said he
Immediately boarded. train and
left the city for work in another
locality.
Balm was not held in court.

Townsend measure, several others
have been introduced which would
create a radically different form OF
control. For instance Senator Wes-
ley Jones of Washington calls for
the creation of a department of
public works, which would among
it's other duties, include all that is
now done by the bureau of public
roads. Representative Osborne of
California would create a depart
ment of federal highways and es-
tablish a national highway system,
while Representative Reavis of Ne
braska introduces in the house the
same measure as is sponsored in
the senate by Mr.. Jones.
Senator Morris Sheppard of Tex
as is the author of one bill calling
for military highway along the
southwestern border.

an innovation in motor engineering
which is the latest automobile &C
cessory to make its way on the au-
tomobiIe accessory market.
The duplex superheater, as 1t is
called, is now a reality and has just
recently been placed on the market,
after the inventor had experiment
ed with the device for many
months. The result of the contin-
ued experiment has placed the new
invention on the market at much
reduced cost in production, thus in
surfing a fertile field for the Duplex
sales organization, which is rapidly
developing.
The inventor formally completed
the idea 10 months ago, when pat
ent applications were filed. The
Duplex company was Immediately
formed and incorporated for $25,-
600. J. C. Steele, assistant states
attorney of Madison county, ILL.,, is
vice president of the company.
The device. which is constructed
of gray iron, has for its basic point
the fact that all heat rises and an
interior chamber so handles the OIL
from an under pocket through in
take pipes that it Immediately pro-
duces a superheated gas. which OPP
crates the machine, it is claimed,
at a big saving in gasoline. This
continued heated chamber also
overcomes spark-plug trouble by
eliminating the oil from the spark
plug points, and makes easy motor
ing for the driver.
Probably an innovation in the
new invention is the quick exhila-
ration, and the throttling down to
four miles while running in high.
Among the other points OF interest
is the simple manner in which 1t
can be applied.

NATIONAL ROAD
SYSTEM SOUGHT
: IN MANY BILLS
More Than Forty Proposed Acts
Are Before Congress On Mat
ter of Federal Highways.

Over two score of bills already
introduced the special session of
the E6th congress made evident the
positive demand that is developing
an over the United States for ma
tionalized highways and more com
plete control of federal expendi-
lures on roads by the government.
Though the extra session is yet
young, some forty bills having high
ways as their major theme have
been dropped into the legislative
hopper, while more than a score of
others which deal with the road
situation to a greater or lesser de-
gree are now on file.
