 PUTNAM

q
 The Grosyenordale company, operating the big plants in villages of the town of Thompson served notices on occupants of it's telements who are not represented among the employees of it's mills that they must vacate the homes they are oc- cupying. The houses are needed for the employees of the mills, the notice states. Over the signature of Agent John Rear don the company expresses its regrets that the serving of such notices is nec- essary.
 It was stated here Wednesday by one of those who received a notice that the company tenement which his people were occupying must be vacated that like com muncations had been addressed to 15 different families, many of whom have been residents of North Grosvenordale for many years.
 Serving of these notices, which will turn nearly 100 people out of homes that most of them have been occupying for a long time, means that they will be re- quired to find quarters elsewhere. The problem is that tenements are scarcer than hens teeth all through this section of" eastern Connecticut Representatives of families that are to be dispossessed were in Putnam Wednesday looking for new homes, but the scarcity of houses here is as great, if not greater, than it is in the Grosvenordales, and Putnam had little or no relief to offer.
 The families requested to vacate the homes they are occupying do not blame the mill company for the action taken. The mills are very busy with orders and need the houses that they provide, at vefy' low rents. for such families as work in their mills and contribute ma 4Isa rf where the company plants are located.
 The families ordered out have been represented in the past among the mill cornpany's employees; but the years have brought changes and they must give up homes they are occupying to make way for other families that will have mem bers at work in the mills.
 Anselm Mayotte post, American legion, has an important special meeting sched- ued to be held in Eagles hall tomorrow (Friday) evening. The service men are going to get together to talk over the matter of approving, or disappearing, the proposed action by congress for a bonus or ''additional compensation" as many men who wore the uniform prefer to term it. for those who fought against the designs of Germany.
 While it is known that some members of the local post are opposed to accept ing any kind of bonus or additional compensation from congress for their war service, it must in truth be stated that other members feel that they should receive grant from congress and are mot particular whether it is de- scribed -as a bonus or additional com pensation. f.,'
 Manylrof the boys who wore the uni form oyer here and over there, many of them volunteers, too came back from months of hard training and months of actual service in France to find them- selves discharged from the service of their country and in such financial condi- ton ass to make it impossible for them to buy even suit of civilian clothes. They were as familiar as the next man with the wage scales that munition and other workers. were receiving, and when they thought of their months in the trenches
