 l This is . season of sweet consola- /, tion for local dealers in mems cloth ing, ladies' garments. shoes and other articles of wear. It is the first sea- son in many. many years that has called very much of a halt on local people who never can find anything suitable at home" and their expedi-
 tions to New York. Boston, Providence and Worcester to get something lit tie different than they can find in
 Those who have made their fall shopping visits to the big towns men tiored have come home. in the great majority of cases. empty handed. The answer is that the big city stores are laying the prices this year without any regard for what goods cost them proceeding on the motto that the pub
 lie has been educated during the war
 to pay high prices and will stand for
 anything"
 The benefit of this is going to local
 tradesmen, it is being shown from day
 to day by people who come back and
 buy and say that the big town mer- chants are asking ridiculously high prices for goods.
 Danielson business men who are highly pleased over this experience do not claim to be selling goods at pre-war prices, for that is impossible under present conditions. but they say that the reasonable profits they are taking permits them to far undersel1 their Boston, Worcester and Provi- dence competitors and New York prices are so high as to be considered a joke.
 There was hearing in the super for court at Putnam Thursday on the in junction proceedings of Walter c. Chase Of Killingly Center vs. the Da- wis and Brown Woolen company ~of East Killingiy but instead a confer ence between counsel representing the interested parties.
 It was stated after the conference that an agreement had been reached that no further steps to press the in junction proceedings would be. taken until the first Tuesday in November. by which time Attorney Charles E. Searls, representing the woolen com pany. will have filed his answer to the complaint that has been put in by Attorney H. F. Back in behalf of MT. Chase
 The case is listed privileged that a decision may be reached in No vember to whether the injunction will be made permanent or entirely set aside.
 In the meantime it is understood the conditions about which Mir Chase has complained in the Whetstone brook are much improved and the mill nompany is not permitting the dis charge into the stream of any mattet about which MT. Chase might com plain.
 It is held by people connected with the mill that the wa ste matter from the mill that formerly discharged in to the brook is in no way injurious or dangerous.
 The town records show among re- cent transfers of real estate factory present plant of the Connenticut Mills to that corporation by Wheatiey and Jacobs. Also the pur chase by the mill company of the Charles D. James property on North street.
 All of that territory that has been so splendidly developed by the mill formerly was the James farm.
 These newest purchases by the com pany are taken as indicat ting that 1 there is contemplation of further de- | veiopment by this big concern thoueh ] this development may not come for some time.
 For several years there has been talk that the company would erect l 2 mother plant here. but this has been 1 delayed by various obstacles. a prin- l cipaI one. aside from war conditions i being that Danielson people have not i shown interest in helping meet the 1 housing problems attendant upon the i expansion of the plant and the bring | ing of more employees to town. |
 None of the immense quantity Of yarn that this concern uses is pre- nared in Danie1son. Some of it comes 1 from a mill at East Taunton. this mill, purchased by the Connenticut Mills | company some few years ago. and | more comes from other agencies.
 It is patent that it would be con- venience and an economy to spin yarn here in DanieIson, and the erection Of f I yarn mill on the fla actory site that has just been acquired is what Dan elson people hone will be the nom oany's decision. though there is noth- ing at present to indicate that this Is 10 be done.
 It is very certain. however. that the mills will continue to ex band. and the land purchase is good news to all of the boroughs s people.
 There arc some places in Connecti- cut that do not do things the way | most other towns in Connecticut do .hem For instance. Automobile In
