ELBERFIELD, Germany, Oct. Il (by Associated Press) The compositors of the Bergisch- -Maerkische Zeitung here refused to put an editorial in type in which the editor, under the caption "Sabotaging the Constitu- tion," criticized the methods adopted by the printers union.
 The publisher of the paper notified the typesetters that he could not ap- prove their procedure which he said was tantamount to censorship eX- ercised by technical employees, and calculated to establish a dangerous precedent for the publishing inter- est in general.

 ASSOCIATION AT FRISCO

NEVADA CITY, Cal, Oct. Il (by Associated Press) Sixty years ago a four-wheeled hose wagon was pur- chased by the fire department of Nevada City from the fire department of San Francisco and after twenty years of use was placed in storage. A short time ago the old vehicle was returned to San Francisco as gift from the local firemen to the Veteran Firemen's Association of that city.
 The wagon was shipped around Cape Horn in 1850 and was among the first fire equipment of San Fran cisco, being the property of Pennsyl- vania Hose Company No. 12. So beau tifully was it lettered that when it was brought here Eagle Hose Con- pany changed it's name to Pennsyl- vania in order to make the name fit and it so continues to this day.

Kobryn, Taken In Raid Jan uary 2, Freed From
 Charge

Alexander Kobryn of 729 Arctic street, who was taken by the federal officers in their raid of Jan. 2, was released by Emigration Inspector Root yesterday through the efforts of Attorney George Ferio.
 Kobryn is the local secretary of the Ukranian Federation of America, which has it's headquarters in Wash lngton, D. C., and had formerly been a member of the Socialist party which was merged into the Commun- lst party of Bridgeport.

 A large amount of foreign litera- ture which was taken from Kobryn's home at the time he was arrested was returned to him when he was re- leased yesterday.
 The hearing was held in the Fed eraI building in Hartford and Inspec- tor Root sat in place of Emigration Inspector Clark, who is laid up witt a cold.
 Attorney Ferio is in Hartford agair today appearing for another of the men who was arrested on the depor tation warrants by men from the Department of Justice.
