The World is Just Beginning TO
Use of Motor Vehicles.

The best informed men of the
fl n anc ial and manufacturing
world, both in this country and
abroad, are now saying and pre-
dieting that the usefulness of the
Motor Car, the Truck and the
Farm Tractor was proven be-
yond a doubt by the world
war just ended. They further
say that there is now an accumu-
lated demand for the entire
American production of these
goods for several years to come.
When you add to this accu-
mulated waiting demand. the new
needs that are constantly arising,
what would you say Mr.. Aver
age Citizen, of the demand for
motor products for the first, sec
ond. fifth or tenth year just
ahead of us?
Mark it well-the motor indus
try, though already and right
now the most useful and popu-
lar manufacturing line in the en-
tire world, is yet in its infancy.
1t is indeed conservative TO say
that millions will be made in the
future where only hundreds have
been made in the past.

whose foot was on native soil.
However, it met, organized and
elected its officers. The repub-

run things up at Washington.
The President Cabled his mes
sage from Paris. II dealt with

main matter at issue between
him and the Senate-the pro

CASSIDY WINS DAMAGES FROM
 MRS. DECKAND

George L. Cassidy was given a yer dict of sS73.16 by a jury in the su- perior court yesterday in his suit for damages of sS,7OO against Mrs. Flora Deckand. He claimed a breach of contract in the deal for the develop ment of Floral Park a piece of land in Straford owned by Mrs. Deckand. The verdict was accepted by Judge Maltbie and the jury excused. The case has been before the court for the past three weeks.
 Cassidy alleged that Mrs. Deckand revoked the contract which caused him much loss and he brought the ac- ton for the profits he would have made had he been allowed to com plete the agreement. The defense was that Cassidy had not kept the agreement regarding restrictions as to the class of people to whom he was to sell lots and so forfeited his rights under the contract.

War Time Prohibition To
 Be Tested In Hartford
UNITED STATES DISTRICT ATTORNEY CROSBY STATES VIOLATION OF LAW WILL RESULT
 IN PROSECUTION

Hartford, June 27-It is possible that the first test case Of the war pro- hibition nlea will be tried in Hartford as a result of a course of procedure suggested to attorneys for the liquor interests today by United States District Attorney John F. Crosby In a letter sent to Arnon A. filling and William A. King, repre- senting Connecticut liquor dealers, he stated that violations of the law would result in prosecution. Also that if the dealers should determine to file bill in equity he would not agree to suspend prosecution pending the decision on the bill nor be gov erned by the bill unless an injunction was secured. The final statement of his position is that an injunction in one jurisdiction will not prevent the department of justice from making prosecutions in other jurisdictions.
 After making this flat stand on en- forcement of the law MT. Crosby ex- presses a willingness to assist in bringing a test of the law with all possible speed, he promises upon the first violation called to his attention to summon a grand jury and obtain indictment so drawn as to make pos sible a demurrer to test the constitu- tionality of the law.
 If the dealers enter a demurrer. MT. Crosby agrees to urge prompt hearing and decision by the United States District court. If the District Judge upholds the dealers "his ruling on the demurrer can be taken at once to the supreme court implying that this would be the case. He further states that if this plan of action were followed he would "in all probability refrain from commencing other pros- cautions until the initial case is de- termined." However, he states. T cannot bind myself to any given course of action in this regard
 Mr. filling of New Haven said today that he had received the letter and would have a conference with MT. King, his associate in the case, at New Haven this afternoon, This will be followed by a conference with MT. Crosby Saturday morning. Until these have been held MT. AL ling refused to make any statement. He was unwilling to state whether an application for an injunction would be brought prior to prosecut ton, al though Thomas F1tzsimmons. secre- tary of the Connecticut Retail LiqSor Dealers Association, on Thursday in dicated this as the probable course of the action.

Berne, Thursday, June 26 - The general situation in Ger many is becoming steadily more serious, according to the latest dispatches.

It was volunteers from Ahrenfeld. g. suburb of Hamburg, who, in conjunc- ton with Hamburg police, brought about the bath of blood.
 Throughout all of Germany in the last few days there have been spon- taneous tumu1t that have not been political in character but have been shorn of desperation on the part of starving people forced to pay money for the spoiled, uneatable, horrible foodstuffs sold in order to poison those who retained their health to certain extent during the fearful worlds murder.

AGED MILLIONAIRE'S
 PROPERTY FEED UP
COUNSEL FOR SAMUEL BUNDLE OF DANBURY ASSERTS LAW FIR FOR YOUNG WIFE DELAYS
 DIVORCE-$2, 100000 ATTACHED.

Stating that Samuel H. Rundle, the S6 year old Danbury millionaire, is in feeble health and charging that counsel for his 24 year old wife is wilfully delaying the divorce pro- ceedings while S2,OOO,00O worth of the aged husbands property is tied up by attachment, Attorney J. Moss Ives appeared in the Superior Court this morning to ask for the appoint ment of a committee to hear the teS- timOny in private.
 Attorney Ives declared that AttOr- hey Jacob Goodhart of New Haven, counsel for Gladys Austin Rundle, the wife, had been interposing numerous delays to the every effort made for speedy trial. He said the wife's counsel had delayed matters long enough so that the trial could not be reached at this term. Meanwhile the extensive Bundle properties are under attachment.
 The circumstances of the case were such, Attorney Ives said, that it would be a public scandal to have the trial held in open court. He told how the elderly millionaire and his young bride created a furore by marrying October s, 1918. and separating two days later. One month after the sep aration Mrs. Rundle asked for a di- vOrce on the ground of cruelty. Her husband had filed a cross complaint alleging infideIity in New York and naming Sidney A. Tovey as core spOndent.
 Attorney Jacob B. Klein explained that Attorney Goodhart could not be present. He stated that the New Haven lawyers delay was due to the fact that he had been unable to get in touch with Mrs. Bundle recently. Judge John w. Banks was suggested by counsel as a committee to hear testimony. Judge Curtis reserved decision in the matter.
 Another divorce matter to come be- fore the court today was the case of Lillian s. Phillips of this city, who was granted a decree from Charles W. Phillips, formerly of this city, but now a broker in New York.
 Mrs. Phillips testified hat she lives on Grove street at present. She mar ried the defendant in July 1899, but she declared her husband was so shift less that he did not make enough money to support her then. He de- serted her in March, 1913. After he went into business in New York Mrs Philips tried to induce her husband to return to her but he refused
 The court also granted a divorce to John Stryker of Norwalk from Helen L. Stryker of Norwalk. Desertion in July, 1914. was the ground. The couple had many disputes because Mrs. Stry- ked went out with other men, her hus- band said. She finally packed her trunk and left the Stryker honest cad flatter than the well known pancake.

White of NorwaK asked Judge Maltbie in the Superior court today to grant her a decree from Milton B. White, who fled from Norwak in 1914 with Mrs. Saco- ney. The decree was granted.
 Deputy Sheriff Doulens of Norwalk told how he traced White and Mrs. Saconey to Philadelphia last year. He found them living together in that city and served the papers on White. The couple appeared very happy, the sheriff said. White asked how his wife was getting along and told the sheriff he had advised Saconey to marry Mrs. White, as 'she was a fine, little woman
 Mrs. White said the Saconeys were neighbors of hers in Norwalk She did not suspect they were infatuated with each other until they went away together.

City Attorney William H. Comley recently won legal victory when the court threw out the first suit brought against King in this matter by Re- ceiver J. Moss Ives of the Danbury & Bethel Street Railway Co.
 It was alleged in the second suit that the Danbury & Bethel Go. had been merged with the Bridgeport & Danbury by act of the General As sembly and thereby had acquired con- trol of all it's property, including stock subscriptions. Attorney Comley maintained that Receiver Ives had no authority to attempt to collect the stock subscriptions for the defuncl company. The court reserved decis' ion.
