Public announcements of the new political appointments will be made late this afternoon or tonight, Mayor Fred Atwater said today The list has been completed. and every major of flee has been filled from among the scores of available candidates. The recomTn endations of both the Dem no- cratic Executive Board and the Re publican Voters League have been carefully considered, and candidates of each faction have been eDerousiy fla vored.
 Since the publication in yesterdays g Times of a partial list of men who have been offered appointments to the various boards and commissions, a. number of changes may be made. Mayor Atwa.ter has been notified in almost every case of the acceptance or refusal of each person to whom an appointment was offered The may or would not discuss the matter today. and several of the candidates whose decisions are not known expressed a desire to refrain from committing themselves until the public announce nients are made by Mayor Atwater.
 It now appears that Murray A. Chapin, treasurer of the Chapin and Bangs Manufacturing company. may be named to the Board of Apportion- tnent in place of Signund Loewith. The name of MT. Loewith, who has served on the board for the past fif- teen years, had been favorably consid- cred but he was not finally select ed because of the fact that he was a Dem ocrat, and that the remaining va cancy on the board must be filled by a Republican

Washington. Dec. 3o-Two Aneri- can soldiers were hanged at St. Nazaire while their comrades were compelled to stand at attention, ac- cording to a telegram received today by Senator Tom Watson of Georgia in connection with his charges that 'tYanks" were illegally killed in France. The telegram was from l.. C.. Mason, of Davenport, Ia.
 T have examined the record of II hangings furnished by Colonel Walter A. Bethel. of Pershing's staff and l find no record of any hangtngs at St. Nazaire ' said Senator Watson today.
 Mason's telegram reads:
 Answering your wire, I was in Camp St. Nazaire. France. The two colored soldiers that were hung were executed in the morning. We were told to stand at attention while they were being hung, regardless of color. I do not think they had 8 fair trial if they had any trial at all. I would like to see you personally regarding the case"
 Watson has asked that Mason be called as a witness.

Washington, Dec. 30-So long as sIbmarines-''the assassins of the sea''-are permitted to form an in tegral part of the worlds navieS Great Britainss naval strength will be measured by her great fleet of mer- chant vessels.
 An official spokesman for the Brit

 ined policy of Great Britain today
 by stating that Britain would never send her merchant ships to sea un-
 armed in war time, regardless of the restrictions which the Washington conference places on the uses of sub- marines in warfare.
 While Great Britain wants to see the submarine legally outlawed by the Washington conference and her delegates went into today's session to wage a determined fight for it, she nevertheless would not be prepared to risk her merchant vessels on any agreement which the powers may evolve
 Past experiences in the world war taught the lesson. it was stated. that nations are liable to fight with any weapon they possess in any way they can, international law or no interna-

ASK INCREASE
 IN HkRB0R AND
 STREET BUDGET

With but one day left. several of the larger city departn1 ents have yet to file their annual budgets with City Auditor Bernard Heating. Practically all of the smaller budgets have been received, but the larger ones. includ- ing the Charities Department and Lamps Committee, are missing.
 Two more were filed this morning with Auditor Heating by Har+bor- master William A. Lamond, and Superintendent of Streets John R. Garter.
 Harfbormaster Lamond estima ates his financial needs at s1.O0o more than last year. due largely to requests for $500 for dock repairs and 8. s46O increase in office rent. He asks a total appropriation of $3.725, oon- pared with the s2.750 appropriation he was allowed fast year.
 Because of requests for $24,o00 for new equipment. the budget submitted streets, is considerably larger than last year. He estimates the total at S159. 900, while last year his depart ment was given s123,00O by the Board of Apportionment. The new budget shows an increase of S36, ,50O over the old one.
 Superin tendent Carter asks $14 ,0oC for two new street sweeping ma chimes, and $10,o00 for a new sewer we'll edurtor. and in addition requests Ss,o00 for repairs and supplies. The other items in his acquisition include S11 1000 for street cleaning. SIP, ,5OC for sewer well equipment, and S2,00( salary.

NEW YEARS MUST BE HAPPY BUT
 NO HARD STUFF

Happy New Yeari Do you want to say it to the family or to the judge? Here is the last tip of 1921. This is not q tipsy tip, but 8 sober one. The prohibition enforcement agents are going to be busy tomorrow night Not only that, but 8 whole platoon of extra officers, not strange officers but officers strange to this comnu- nifty, are expected to aid in a desper- ate attempt to take any Joy out Of the last of 1921 or the first of 1922.
 Automobiles will be watched. So will dance halls, pool rooms, restaur- ants, road houses, and hotels. Especial attention will be paid to hotels. Pro prietors of hostelr1es of all kinds, the same applying to restaurants, will be held responsible if any of the guests are allowed to pour and drink, or even just drink without pouring. any thing more powerful than one-half of one per cent. even though they make it in their own coffee pot and bring 1t from home.
 With this information, added to the announced determination of the po- lice to enforce Sabbath day regula- tions promptly at midnight, it begins to look as though Bridgeport would be about as exciting as Woodmont on New Years Eve. Happy New Year.

tional law, when they get their backs to the wall.
 Discussions over the submarine re- striCtions and a possible ration of airplane carriers were taken up when the powers met again in secret. At II o'clock today an informal ratio of 5-5-3-2-2 has been proposed in airplane carriers, but the French are not prepared to accept this with out reference to Paris again and it was considered doubtful whether the pro poSal would be pressed. Indications were fortscoming today that the principal work of the conference will be completed within the next two weeks. A. J. Balfour head of the British delegation, will sail for home on Jan. 14 and has booked reserva- tions on that date.
 While it is not expected that all of the details of the conference will be cleared by that time,- what will be left will be of minor importance and can be attended to by the am- bassadors in Washington.
 It is understood that MT. Balfour wants to be home in plenty of time to prepare for the economic and f. nancia1 conference in Europe, which is to follow the meeting of the al- lied supreme council in Cannes next week.
