MAYOR LEAVES SUN SAVING
 UNDECIDED

Mayor Wilson last night failed to issue e proclamation in favor of the use of daylight saving in Bridgeport this summer Instead, he suggested that employers and employees reach individual decisions, and recommend ed that clerk and employees in the City Hall report for work an hour earlier in place of changing clocks.
 It had been freely reported and expected that the Mayor would issue a proclamation calling for daylight saving, particularly since the Cham Der of Commerce and Manufacturers Association had reported that TO per cent of the 1S,0O0 persons canvassed were in favor of changing the clocks.
 Daylight saving is now matter of common agreement between employ CTS and employees, and although majority of workingmen voted in favor of changed clocks, it is expect adopt the plan to report for work an hour earlier, beginning next Monday morning.
 Mayor Wilson based his decision on
 and in the following communication
 recommending the ctiy's action.
 "A great majority of those who have expressed a preference in refer 1 ence to the adoption of a daylight saving schedule for our city favor | such a plan The legislature has passed a bill. which has been ap-
 proved by the governor. prohibitng 1 1 ing any ordinances or resolutions
 changing the standard time This l of course precludes any action being | taken by the city officially.
 l q have been advised that the rail
 road is to operate it's trains one hour
 earlier and that it will not turn its
 clocks ahead one hour as has been
 done during the past two or three years.
 | "A majority of those who have sig nified their preference for daylight l saving have also. stated that they fla for turning the clock ahead one hour. | In view of hte fact, however, that the railroad time is toz remain the same, I think it would cause less confusion
 if we follow the same plan and start our business activities one hour ear l Her, leaving the time the same. This of course, can only be done by n1u tual agreement of all people to such | a plan. Inasmuch as such an ar rangement is purely voluntary, and not arbitrary, I feel that any proc1a-
 nation that might be issued would be of little value.
 | ''I do recommend, however, that all l city officers open and close their doors for city business one hour earlier, and that those of our citizens who desire to avail themselves of the extra hour 1 of daylight, do so by common agree l ment between employer and employe 1 and those with whom they come in | contact. In this way the benefits | of daylight saving may be had without | violating the state law. l would
 recommend that this arrangement be- l come effective as of April 24, 1921."

Material for a good movie comedy was furnished last night when Vasel RoSenick of 6S1 Hallett street ana George Shorgi and George Pubonik, both of 32 Beach street, tied up in a three-cornered battle in Pubonik's $ boarding house.
 Rosenick, according to the story told to the police, has been saving his money for two years preparatory to rejoining his wife in the old coun- try Last night he gave a farewell party in Pubonik'S house, and in or der to enliven the proceedings gave Pubonick some money with which to purchase beer.
 the house, and when he did not return in an hour and half. Rosenick started to get anxious He started out in search of his friend, and met George Shorgi, who informed him that Pubonik was treating the boys in a nearby saloon.
 When Pubonik returned, Rosenick demanded an accounting. Pubonik stalled, and Rosenick is alleged to have punched him in the face. Shorgi, loyal to his boarding master, picked up an air rifle and swung on Rosen- ick. Pubonick stepped in the way and received the butt of the gun on the head. He lost interest in the nothing until the arrival of the po- lice.
 All three men. Pubonfk rather badly battered, appeared in the City court today on charges of assault. The cass of Shorgi and Rosenick were nolled and Pubpnik was fined S5 and costs.

National American Music
Festival To Be Held in Buffalo

The National American Music Festival
will be held this year from October
3 to s at Buffalo. Tho underlying prin-
ciple Of the undertaking is to give
public recognition to American born
artists and composers.
Those sponsoring the festival aim
to develop native talent by engaging
only American born singers and in
strumentalists. They require that all
vocalists sing in English, and that ali
taking part shall choose their pro-
grams from compositions by Ameri-
can-bom composers.
The festival was founded five years
ago in the city of Lockport. n. Y, and
held there during that period. But
owing to the growth Of the festival and
the limited housing facilities Of that
city the festival was lost to it last
Year.
Many of BuFalo's leading and wealthy
citizens, headed by George K Staples,
commander in chief Of the Buffalo Con-
sistory, who had watched the under
taking from the beginning, decided to
New-York tribune., 1921-08-28

secure it for Buffalo and give it the CO.
operation and financial assistance nee
essary to insure its artistic growth and
development, with the result that this
year finds It located in the city of
Buffalo and placed upon sound
financial footing. 1t is announced IS a
six-day event, with threS performances
daily. The mornings are 70 be devoted
to contests, for which a substantial
prize of money is offered to young
American musicians competing in
voice, piano and violin. The afternoons
and evenings are devoted to concerts by
leading artists, choral societies and
musical organizations
The musical feature of this Ameri-
can festival is its aim to give recogni-
tion to the undiscovered musical
talent, and while a certain number OF
we'll known American concert and oper-
attic artists appear each year, an equal
number is always chosen from those
possessing unusual talent, but who have
not yet received the encouragement of
public recognition.
