MUST GET RIGHT
 TO ENTER sur
Claim Made Fleet Corpora. tion is Governmental
 Agency.

Claiming that the United States Emergency Fleet Corporation was a governmental agency and could not be sued without permission from Congress. U. s. District Attorney Smith of Hartford in the Superior court moved for the dissolution of the temporary injunction which the Housatonic Shipbuilding Company had obtained against the Fleet Cor poration, enjoining them from sell ing the equipment and property at the IIousatonic River to Albert IT. Stuart.
 The Housatonfc Shipbuilding Com pany claimed that according to the contract it had with the Fleet Cor property or the greater portion of it and that the contract gave it the op- ton of buying all the equipm ent within 90 days after the termina tion of the contract at 50 per cent of the cost price. That it had made several bids for the property but could not come to an agreement.
 The Housatonic Company also claimed that the Fleet Corporation had abandoned the property as they had not notified the Housatonic Co. within sixty days after the termina- ton of work that they claimed any portion of it.

MAY RAISE
 INTEREST RATE
No Relief In Sight At Present For "Tight'
 Money.

Bankers would not be surprised if seven per cent was charged for money on notes within a short time, according to one prominent banker this morning. This condition is caused, he said. because there is a, shortage of money and this like any other community, is ruled by law of demand and supply.
 For a long time Federal Reserve banks have been charging seven per cent for money and when the banks pay that price they will have to ask the same rate from those who want money. Even now, the banker said some persons are paying seven per cent and some are paying a higher rate of interest.
 Under the law more than 12 per cent. is prohibited, but more than six per cent is allowed when there is an agreement. If persons want money they are sometimes willing to pay more than six per cent which has been the rule up to this time
 For automobile notes, the rate of interest has no limit under 12 per cent. and in some cases in this city eight per cent is being charged for discounting notes.
 According to bankers there does not seem to be any relief in sight at the present time, but if transporta- tion conditions changed for the better the money condition would also change for the better as a great many merchants have money tied up in goods on the railroad and are unable to get their money out of the goods.

SAVES WOMEN
 FROM INJURY
George Coughlin Stops Pair of Runaway
 Horses.

George M. Coughlin, former candi- date for city clerk and secretary of the local draft board and now living at 597 Park street, was the hero of the day yesterday when he stopped a pair of runaway horses drawing a hack that had become frightened by an automobile on East Main street. In the hack drawn by the horses were five elderly women who were return ing from a funeral
 Coughlin was riding down East Main street in a buggy with John Cos igan of East Main street when the screams of the women in the hack reached them and they espied the runaway, coming in their direction. As the hack drew opposite, Coughlin 1eaped from the buggy and secured a hold on the brid1e of the nearest horse. After dragging him for a dis tance of about 200 yards he finally succeeded in bringing the horses to a halt. None of the women were seri- ously injured outside of rude shak- ing up. Coughlin suffered a sprained arm.
 The hack was owned by George Pistey, undertaken, of 43 Reilly street.

 Hiram Johnson of California in 1912, was "both a fqker and g
 The reference to Roosevelt and Benedict Arnold was on Sept. IS, 1912, under the title "Getting the Measure of Hiram.'' The Star says editoriaIly that Johnson had placed Taft below Benedict Arnold, stwho is more like Roose- veIt, for he won his country'S pIaudits and turned traitor when he might have joined a victor.''
 The Star then goes on to say of Johnson
 ''He appears at close view to be both a faker and blaclxguard. When the people have finished thinking the utter collapse of the Bull Moose pretense may be practically charged to too much Johnson
 ly that in 1912, Wilson, viewed by Harding, was preferable to Roosevelt as President.

 As5far as could be learned Hartford voted against the acceptance of the company's offer and New Haven voted in favor. The local vote-will probably be for acceptance but it is not un- likely that the younger employees in length of service who are holding out for the flat rate of 75 cents an hour may be in the majority.

VOLUNTARY GIFTS OF MONEY POURING IN

Voluntary contributions amounting to s454 were received this morning at the Salvation Army Home on Elm street, according to Commandant William Dermody. There are no daily returns being made at this -of- flee and we cannot give any stated amount as a result of the drive in a daily report" said MT. Dermody this noon. '-The voluntary contributions of $454 go to prove, however, that the drive is not suffering any from the action of the Pastors Association, and we have every reason to feel encour- aged at the sentiment the campaign is meeting with everywhere through out the city,
 It is likely that the drive will be continued on Monday and Tuesday of next week due to the failure of the printer to deliver enough tickets to meet the demand. Tickets to be dis tributed by the policemen will be in their hands this evening and the re- turns for tomorrow are expected to exceed those of today and yesterday.
 Commandant Dermody had nothing to say this morning in regard to 6 statement in the morning paper by the Pastors Association in which they allege the plan being carried out by the Salvation Army in their drive for funds was lottery. "As yet,' he said, the Pastors Association has not hindered the pushing ahead of the drive. We realized about $2,00o yes- terday and expect to have twice that amount when the returns for today are in."
 Prosecuting Attorney A. L. Delaney said this morning that no official ac- ton had been taken to suppress the drive and that the complaint of the Pastors Associa ton was in his hands and was being investigated.
