Yesterday Quiet

The Morris avenue markets with
the exception of the cotton market,
reported very quiet day yesterday.
Lard and meats are next slated for a
raise in prices. in the opinion of Nor
ris avenue packers.
A gal nof 80 points, or ALMOST one
third of a cent, featured the days
all classes, good middling, strict mid
ding, middling and strict low mid
ding.
A marked trend toward the institu-
ton of large orders is becoming
quite apparent among the retailers.
according to several wholesalers. For
the past several months the pur-
chases have been made mostly in the
"hand-to-mouth" manner-the re-

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-10-29

Attorney Samuel Reich, who opened the program while Mayor Wilson was busy in the Fourth district, claimed that the city is saving $70O,000 a year through its permanent paving project, and then launched an attack at the Republican Voters league. MT. Reich asserted that the Tax Commis- sioner was 1egislated out of office by the league and manufacturers who wished to get control of the tax office. He also told his hearers, that the man ufacturers of this city are for the most part little interested in Bridge port, beca use they do not reside here. and only want to secure all they can for as little as possible.
 The Chamber of Commerce came in for a slam at the hands of MT. Reich, directly through the Lill re- port. The speaker declared that the chamber, which is supposed to be n non-po1itical organization. prostituted the very keystone of its constitution in an attempt to discredit the admin istration.
 Mayor Wilson devoted his talk prin- cipally to a review of his admt2tstra- tion, and the things accomplished during the years he has been in office. He produced various facts and figures in proof of his assertions. His re- marks regarding the manufacturers and the Voters League. were sub stantially the same as those which he made at other meetings this week, accusing his enemies of attem pting to get control of the tfX office. and boosting the Port of Bridgeport pro- ject.>

MAYOR WILSON CONTINUES
 TO ATTACK MANUF AC URERS

In last nights rallies Mayor Cliff ford B. Wilson continued his bitter denunciation of the manufacturers of Bridgeport. His speeches reflected tfy has repudiated his administration: note of anger was reflected in all that he said upon this topic.
 Fourth District.
 Mayor Clifford B. Wilson, Judge John B. Dillon, Alderman Thomas O'Connor, District Chairman William Chew, Mrs. Theodore B. Steiber. for merly of the town committee, Mrs. H. Willard Fleck, vice town chair man, and Mrs. Grace Richardson were the speakers at the Republican rally last night in the Fourth Dis trict. The district club at State street and Colorado avenue was comfort ably filled, and the remarks of the several speakers were enthusiastically received.
 Mayor Wilson spoke along his usual lines, reviewing his ten year administration and calling attenton to the measures he brought before the last session of the legislature. The Republican Voters League and the Manufacturers Association came in for their regular medicine, when the Mayor attempted to show that their strenuous efforts in the present cam paign were directed entirely towards gaining control of the tax office.
 Mrs. Richardson, Mrs. Fleck and Mrs. Steiber spoke of the women'S s work and the wOmen'S interests Tn the campaign. Mrs. Fleclz attributed the neutrality of the Women's League of Voters during the early stages of the campaign to the fact that they were undecided as to which RepubH- can faction they would lend their support. After an extensive study of the municipal government and var ious administrative departments, she said, the deoision was finally reached to endorse Mayor Wilson and his tickets.
 Bridgeport manufacturers, the Chamber of Commerce and the Re- publican Voters League were severely attacked last night by speakers at the Republican rally in the 10th district. A favorable review of the work of the present administration was offered by Mayor Clifford B. Wilson. and the mayors enemies were roundly scored for bringing about the abolishment of the Tax nmiSSioner'S office. The meeting was largely attended, and the crowd waxed very enthusiastic at times

AUTOISTS NEED NOT MAKE DETOUR
 TO NEW HAvEh

Not anticipating a crowd as large as attended the Yale-Army game or even a stream of motor cars as large as usually wends it's way to New Ha- ven for the Brown game, due to sev- eral reasons, the Stratford police were making no special efforts this morn ing to divert traffic through Derby.
 It was believed that the old Wash ington bridge and the temporary bridge between Milford and West Haven could stand the strain, and that at any rate the motorists learned the true state of affairs on the Post road last Saturday, and they therefore will be left to use their own judg- ment.
 The Brown game has been imme- diately prior to the "big game in the past and many persons took in this contest because they could get tick cts for no other major game. Many of these enthusiasts of the fall sport saw the Army game. This coupled with the early date of the Brown en- gagement, and the fact that the Bears are not as strong as usual this year, has led to the belief that tho attend ance at the game today will not ex- ceed 35 O00
