EVERY INCH OF HOSE NEEDED
Sand House Near Railroad Track
Burned

All of the hose carried on both
motor truck No. and on motor
truck No. 2 was used in getting a
stream of water to a fire in sand
house of the N. Y, N. II. & H. rail
road, Saturday night II is estimated
that over thousand feet of hose was
laid.
Near the coal chute in the north
railroad yard, an old box ear was
made suitable for place where sand
is dried for use in the sand boxes of
the company's locomotives.
About 1920 O'clock the sand house
was discovered to be on fire. The
alarm was telephoned in and truck
sent to the scene Then general
alarm was rung, bringing out all of
the apparatus and men. The nearest
hydrant was on Providence street,
while the sand car was located beside
the railroad track a considerable dis
lance to the north. When the long
line of hose was finally laid and a
stream put on it, it did not take long
to put out the blaze The sand house
was practically destroyed but the loss
was small. 1t is believed that the fire
started from stove used to dry the
sand. The call out" sounded at ten
minutes to twelve.

the Southern New England Telephone
Company, son Of Mr.. and Mrs. John
O'Brien, Hammond street, had mar
row escape from death one day last
week while working 35 feet in the air
on swing staging.
O'Brien is heavy man and the
rope having become worn parted as he
was at work on cable. As he fell
through the network of wires O'Brien
had presence of mind enough to grab
a messenger wire. There he swung
35 feet in the air. His fellow en-
ployes were powerless to go to his as
sistance. Slowly, hand over hand. he
worked his way toward the nearest
pole and safety. His hands were bad
~ lacerated from his performance
but aside from this, and having his
clothing torn, he was uninjured.

48 HOURS OF DAYLIGHT SAVING
CITY GOES BACK TOSTANDARD
MAYOR STATES POSITION
ON DAYLIGHT SAVING

To the Public:
As my suggestion of last week
that the setting of clocks ahead
one hour be deferred for the time
being seems to have created an
opportunity for the most ardent
supporters of daylight saving TO
locate the cause of whatever con-
fusion has attended this time
saving scheme, l desire to briefly
state my reasons for making such
a suggestion and correct any
misunderstanding as to my posi-
ton in the matter.
In telephone communication
with the General Managers Office
of the New Haven Railroad on
Friday last they assured me that
they were going to continue upon
the present standard time basis
without changing their clocks in
any way, and that if it seemed
advisable to conform to daylight
saving measures it would be done
by revision of their time tables.
In view of this and the apparent
confusion and inconvenience
which would result to many of
our citizens by the one hour diff
ference between railroad time
and our own time if our clocks
were advanced, it seemed to me
a much better policy to defer do
ing this until there was more uni
versal action throughout the
state, and l am still of that opin-
ion.
If my recommendation seemed
in direct violation of the daylight
saving ordinance recently passed
by the city council (as some of
my friends have reminded mel
| can only say that | advised
against the passage of this ordi-
nance upon the grounds that the
City of Putnam has no powers
given by its charter to govern
time regulations or to change
what is defined by the statutes of
this state as STANDARD time"
However, the members of the
Council desired to pass such an
ordinance and believing it lacked
the one essential necessary to all
efficient rulings, power of en-
: forcement, and also thinking
perhaps some universal ruling
might be adopted by the time
this was supposed to become eff
fectiye, ! did not veto it.. While
am not daylight saving enthu-
siast, believing one of the most
essential needs of this country at
the present time is more work
and less play, yet | am not an
tagonistic to the plan and if such
a measure becomes universally
effective | will cheerfully abide
by it.
As far as the confusion Of the
past few days is concerned there
seems to have been as much or
more in other cities which are be-
yond my jurisdiction, therefore |
feel willing to share the honors
for any local disturbances with
whoever was responsible for set
ting the town clock ahead one
hour on Sunday morning.
Signed,
A. w. MARCY,
Mayor.

operation Of the ears, it has always
been the far sighted and quietly ex-
pressed hope of the strikers that
some day they would have chance to
deal with the Connecticut company
officials, who would inherit an unset
tied strike condition whenever the
time came for them to take over the
road. In that event it might be that
employees on the Connecticut Com
