 At the next meetins of WiIlimantie Chamber of Commerce to be held on March 2, Peter W. Collins of Boston is to be the honored guest at the supper at the chamber rooms, and will briefly address the members
 Shortly before o'clock the meeting at the chamber rooms will z, be ad- journed and the members will go to the state armory on Pleasant street where Mir. Collins will deliver, an ad- dress on What Is the Matter With the World Today? This meeting will be public, as the committee in charge fo the meeting feels that Mr.. Collins address will be of educational value to every adult of Williuantic. Mir. [ Collins is perhaps sas1 well able to de- liver an address on the subject he has chosen as is any other person In this country. His knowledge of so- cialisn as It exists today, and has been known in the past, Is demon strated by the fact that he was sum- moned last week by the government as an expert, to appear before the legisla tive committee of the state of New York, in connection with the trial, of the five socialist members of that body who had been expelled. Mr. Collins testimony in this trial show ed clearly his knowledge of the dan gers of .Dolshevisn1s and demonstrated his own stamp of -Americanism. Mir Collins is now actively engaged in ] finding jobs for, ex-service men, in his office as director general of -the reconstructional employment service under the auspices of the Knights Of Columbus.
