Action through borough officials is now certain to bring the matter of an advance in water rates by the Crystal Water company before the Public Utilities commission, and, it is under stood, town officials look favorably upon the plan to bring about fuil hearing of a matter of such per1na- nent interest to every property owner in the borough as well as to many who live outside the borough limits. No- lice also has been posted that the Brooklyn fire district is to hold a meeting on the afternoon of Saturday, rSarch 6, to see what action the dis trfct wishes to take in relation to the proposed advance in rates by the Crystal Water company, and to see II the district will make an appropria- tfon for the actual expenses that may be incurred by any action.
 It was felt here Wednesday that the borough of Danielson and the Brook lyn fire district should combine in their efforts to combat the raise in rates by the water company. Neither can afford to proceed separately, be- cause the same ground must be gone over in getting at the facts and fig ures that must be developed in prop erlv presenting the cast before the Public Utilities commission. The borough, of course, has the larger in- terest and arrangement of payment of costs of the legal procedure would be divided accordingly. There is poSsi- bfiity, too, that the town of Killingly may join in the action, but this has not been definitely decided up to We'd nesday afternoon, when the board of seIectmen were holding one of their regular meetings here. First Select man John A. Gilbert stated, however, that he had conferred with Warden Damase Boulais relative to the in- crease in water rates and that likely there would be another conferecne be tween them.
 Mr. and Mrs. cIarne N. Turner and Mrs. Enc Roberts are leaving Daniel son today tThursday) for the Pacific coast-Los Angeles, where Mir. Turn CT is to be an official of the new plant that has been established in the City of Angels by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber coznpany. The plant will be ready for operation about May 1 The great corporation that is bring ing into this land of sunshine and tourists an industrial concern that il is intended shall care for the far west ern demands being made upon the corporation for its. products of world wide fame. has established a manu- featuring property that no only will prepare cotton and weave it into tire fabric. but also will include a rubber works, making a complete unit for the production of automobile tires. 7,50l Of which will be produced each day when the factories are running to ca pacity.
 Cotton manufacturing is something Of a. novelty in the vicinity of Los Angeles, so the Goodyear company's new factory organization must be re- cruited, insofar as its practical and directing heads are concerned. from the New England states which section of the country is pre- eminently a leader in textile industry. Various mill cities and towns in this part o1 tine country will contribute an over- seer or a department head to the suc- cessfui making Of the Los Angeles organization, and the lure of the land of flowers has been sufficient tc tempt many skilled mill men from good positions they are now occupy ing here in New England to pull uT stakes and 'go west" into what seeml a land O great opportunity.
 The ordinary labor of the Los An. Eeles plant will include a heavy per. eentage Of Scandinavians, Japanese and Chinese and it is expected that these industrious peoples will acquir< the skill very quickly that is needed tn produce strch a high grade of ia brics as go into the manufacture ot automobile tires.
