FAILS TO KEEP PACT
 MYTH NEW InNnnN

The United States Housing corpora tion appears somewhat reluctant to execute the agreement, which it's rep resentatives entered into with the city of New London, in connection with the corporations war time housing pro- ject on Jefferson avenue in New Ldh an, last June.
 Either reluctance or pressure of bus mess may be the reason, but the fact is that the Housing corporation has not yet signed and forwarded to Mayor Nor gan the contract which was prepared by the city and by fhe corporation and which contract the city subsequently signed by the mayor. and forwarded to Washington for the signature of the cor poration.
 Mayor Morgan said Tuesday that he has addressed a letter ato the United States Housing corporation informing the corporation that unless said COL tract is signed by it's represen tatives on or before Jan. 1, 1921, it may con- sider that the agreement. insofar as New London is concerned, is ''all off,
 City authorities believe that it would be unfortunate to have this contract go by the board, simply through failure of ore of the contracting parties to sign it and make it binding, as it is recalled viv- Idly how the controversy over this hous- ing project ranked here for period of nearly year leading to charges and counter charges and a row over the ln- stallment of non-syphon house traps.
 When the war was on, and there was imperative need of more houses for the workers at the shpyards and factories engaged on war work the Housing cor poration proposed to erc..t a large num- Der of houses in New Lcndon and in the fall of 1917, when Ernest E. Rogers was mayor, the latter entered into a tentative agreena::r with the corporation. lrroviding that ;he c:tv O. New London Tray proport'5nate share of the cost of the project which i was expected won be something like S57,OO0. This tentative acreelaert it was under stood, was ent""oi irto by Mayor Rog- | CTS, subject to confirmation by the court ] of common council, but before the mat ter was brought to the attention of the l council, Mayor Rogers term of office ex- pi1ed
 The Housing corporation proceeded to 1 erect the houses, although the num- i be-: was reduced, and then the, corpor- :! ation asked that the city come across | with $"7,000 tr thereabouts, Mayor i Morgan and the court of common eoun- l cil had made no agreement with the corporation and they failed to "came ] across" Instead controversy develop ed which continued for a number oi | months.

NEAR OTTAWA FOR BIG
!. CHAMPIONSHIP CONTEST
sportsmen Say Guaranty of
Quarter Million is Ready and
Rickard Will Look Into Pro-
posal in Near Future.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.--(A. P.)-An
offer Of the site for the holding Of the
Dempsey Carpenter heavyweight
championship fight in Canada, was
received today by Promoter Tex Rick
ard. The proposition, from a syndi-
cate of wealthy Ottawa sportsmen,
suggested holding the contest at Hull,
just across the river from Ottawa, dur.
Ing June. II was stated that $3.50, 900
was available as a guaranty and Rick.
ard was requested to discuss the mat
ter with "a representative Of the Cana
dian syndicate.
Richard said he would arrange for
a conference In the near future but
that no definite plans had been made |
for staging the battle anywhere in the |
U. s.. Canada, Mexico or Cuba, provid- /
Ing the principals are given sufficient |
notice Of the site to arrange for proper /
training facilities. 1t again was in
timated today by the chief promoter
that In case II would inadvisabie 10
hold the contest in or near New York
city. the match would, in all probable
ty. be staged in London where Car
lentier Is a great drawing card
When IL was pointed out to Rickard
lat the existing contract did not cover
! ring encounter in Europe, he stated
hat both manager Kearns and Cham
zion Dempsey had agreed to sign
lew contract including such change.
ihould the emergency arise it is quite
ikcly that instead OF Dempsey receiv-
ng 100000 and Carpenter 100000.
he boxers will agree to battle for a
ercentage Of the gate receipts. which
re estimated as likely to run into
undreds Of thousands OF dollars with
