Chamber Of Commerce Hits WiIsOn PyOys But
 Asks For More Bonds

Figures on the ~bonded indebted ness of Bridgeport were presented to the Finance committee of the Leg islature yesterday by City Auditor Bernard Heating, at the instance of Mayor Wilson in support of his measure to increase the bond debt limit from five to seven percent. The bill was met with stiff opposition particularly on the part of Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce members who. after combating the Wilson measure later advocated the increase of bond ed indebtedness to provide for new school buildings.
 The hearings on the two measures were attended by city officials and interested parties from the Chamber of Commerce and taxpayers. and were the scenes of heated debates and lengthy arguments. The effectiveness of the oratory of the local delegation was an unknown quantity when the hearings finally closed. although a statement issued by Representative Fa1rchild. of Stratford, later in the day intimated that the committee would not stand in the way of school progress by placing obstacles in the way of the educators, and further an nounced that no decision had been reached by the committee as to the
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-02-25

recommendation for the Bridgeport school program.
 The failure of the Board of Edu- cation to cooperate with other city othclals was scored at another hear ing before the cities and boroupbs committee by Alderman R. Arthur Brown who appeared in support of Mayor Wilson's bill providing for the appointment of the Board of Educa- uon by the city executive. Alderman Brown further charged that recom- mendations forwarded to the educa- tors by the Board of Aldermen were thrown into the waste packet and seldom If ever received considera- ton.
 Senator Howard Challenger was at the hearing in support of his bill for the reduction of the Board of Educa- uon to six members and their. cleo 'uon by popular. vote, and made an urgent plea for a non-partisan board that would exclude politics from the realm of educational work.

ASK INJUNCTION AGAINST STABLE

Joseph Klein has asked that an in
 junction be issued preventing the
 further use of a stable on the property
 of Robert E. Lockwood, 739 Beech
 wood avenue. The motion was heard
 this morning before Judge John E.
 keeler in Superior court Nearly
 thirteen neighbors have filed com
 plaint against the noises, and es-
 pecia1ly the odors said to emanate
 from the stable. Klein also asks $5,O00 damages.
 There were many witnesses, among them Chief Inspector c. Howard Dun bar of the Board of Health, who states that Lockwood has always followed suggestions and orders of l the board in sanitary matters. | Klein features the smell in his conn., 1 plaint- He is represented by Attor- l ney Charles Brody. The complaint | ants all have purchased their prop | erty within the last few years, and l all stated that they did not believe at | the time of purchasing that the ad- | joining property was to be used, or had been used for stables.
 i Lockwood moved in last August having purchased the place because | of the stable facilities, as he was in | the trucking business.

"It's All Up to Mayor Will son." Says Director of Public Works, No Longer RecaIcitrant,

The Times agitation in favor of the principle that public accounts are public property is bearing fruit Signs of remorse and trepidation are al- ready apparent in the demeanor of Director Jake Courtade;~o the De- partment of Public Works The avalanche Of criticism that descended upon his head following his refusal to Chamber of Commerce representa- tives to probe his accounts is weak ening his stubborn nature.
 The Times showed him the light, literally speaking, and imparted tn 2 knowledge, perhaps that he already feared, that his actions were not sus- tained by the public, nor by his su- perfors.
 He was ratheS toucFy on the sub- tect this morning, and was more than reticent.
 II refuse to be further interviewed on the matter, and refer you to May or Wilson, was his only answer to questions.
 The entire proposition is now status quo.
 Immediate access to Director Cour- tade's books is not necessary as the Chamber of Commerce investigators are out-of-town. Secretary Price has it within his power to practically open the books at any time by requesting an official order from Mayor Wilson.
 When the nvestigators return and are ready for action, Secretary Price will undoubtedly confer with the mayor. and start in motion the wheels Of the ma achine that will override the COurtade oppCSiti tion-

Churchmen's
 | Frolic Stirs Up Milford

Milford, March 29-Many towns people of various church utilization professed to be shocked today as result of the alleged 'bloody ending" of the four round sparring exhibition between Australian Charlie Griffin, boxing instructor Of the Milford pre- paratory school and Andy Parker, his assistant, given as a feature of the annual frolic of the Mems Brother hood of the First Congregational church. According to those who at- tended Parker quit in the fourth round, bleeding profusely and Griffin was also cut over the eye, shedding considerable bloood.
 Another feature of the affair which excited much unfavorable comment was a burlesque show in which it is alleged some of the members of the brotherhood participated as female burlesquers,- arrayed in tights and other female makeup, and "cracking' some jokes which were described as decidedly raw and otherwise bur lesquing local characters and events
 Town officials were mum when in- terviewed today as to the possibility of any action. Many members of the brotherhood said they saw nothing ob- jectionable in the entertainment and that the critics entirely fr1isihterpret- ed the spirit of the affair. Entire responsibility for the affair rests on a committee which produced" the snow it was said.

Immediately after his arrest. Ray told Sheriff William H. Gould, of Fairfield, that he had attended the Elks' ball last night, and was simply out for a ride when the accident oc- cured.
 According to officials who are in vestigating the mishap, Ray was driving a Cole Eight touring car towards Bridgeport. Steen and the woman were in the rear seat of the machine.

He is said to have attempted to squeeze by the trolley. and in doing so drove his car squarely into the side of the car: Steen was thrown violently against the inside of the automobile and re- -ceiyed a fractured skull. The injured man was rushed to St. Vincents hos pital, and died there about one hour after his admittance-
 Ray was unhurt by the crash, and it is believed that the young woman also escaped injury. Witnesses say that she left the scene of the acci- dent and walked to her home.

A gale that reached the velocity of TS miles an hour swooped down on Bridgeport last night bringing with 1t a freakisl mixture of fog, hail. rain, snow and lightning. Despite the se- verity of the storm, damage in Bridgeport and vicinity was com paratively small In some pla aces trees were uprooted, branches ripped off, signs blown from hangings, and along the waterfront several small craft were swept up on the shore Very little trouble was experienced by the Connecticut Company. and not a single case of telephone or tele- graph wires out of order in the city was reported For a time, te1eSraphic comm tfnieation with the northern part of the state and with New York was cut off because of damage along the line, but road gangs quickly re- paired all breaks.
 The storm first broke over the city shortly after 4:30 yesterday afternoon when darkening of skies presaged the approach of violent wind storm. An hour later massive dark-hued clouds enveloped the city. and pour ed forth torrents of rain Later

Moscow, by Wireless to Berlin, March 29-The Soviet government is willing to release Emmet Kirkpatrick, k, the Pennsylvanian who was captur- ed during the Red drive against Gen. Baron WrangePs army on the Cri- mean front on condition that Jim Iarkin or Benjamin Gitlow, two American communists are pardoned by the New York State authorities it was declared today in official circles.

 Is Cause Of
 R. R. Plight

Chicago, March 9.-1nefficiency of railroad management rather than the national agreements fixing wages and working conditions of employees is re- sponsible for the financial plight of the railroads, W. Jett Lauck, consult ing economist of the railroad labor organizations declared in a statement to the U. s. Treasury Labor board to- day.
 'The root of the railroad difficult ty," Lauck declared, "iS not in na- tional agreements but in the made quates of managements- Conserva- lively stated, if railroad management was characterized to reasonable eff ciency and had available for its use a proper amount of credit or capi- tai labor costs would have shown a radical decline under national agree ents and savings in operating eX- penses of at least $1,00O,000,0 ,000 an nually would be made" O.
 Lauck outlined six points which he declared upheld the soundness of the policies represented by the national agreements.
 First, he declared, the policy of establishing national agreements of uniform rates of pay and working conditions is in conformity with cus- tom and precedent in the tranSporta- best public policy.
 Second, Lauck asserted collective bargaining on a national scale and national agreement as to workins conditions and relations have beer found to be the best means of sta bilizing conditions in other basic in dustries of the country.
 In Great Britain, Laucb's third point declared, these facts have become SC clearly recognized that nationa, agreements are encouraged by both employers and employees and an eff fort is being made to make then compulsory in all industries (Continued on Page Twelve.)
