 Schwartz is said to have control over IS buses who were operating wild before the Federal court dicision took all but the "J" buses off the streets.

 In discussing the affair, Superin- tendent Beach of Waterbury said: ''It was anything but joke. I don't care what he said about me person. ally for I've got rather used to it, but it was pretty shabby treatment of my men. who were there as invited guests at a dinner, and were not re- sponsible for the incident that occar stoned the attack
 Inspector Pollard of the Waterbury department said: There wasn't a to tIs. It was nothing but sarcasm all tho way through and it put the Bridgeport police in an embarrassing position because they themselves used us fine. Naturally, he didn't get bit of applause after the speech, and soon left the hall. It was abSo- 1utely uncalled for and out of place.

 HERE is BUNCH of MEN. that have carried 579,095 PERSONS at 5 cents each, equalling $34, from Aug 9th up to Aug. 31st, a period of 22 days, going 5050 with the PUBLIC, and they being CWHITE) with the PUBLIC, and you MFR CHANTS of BRIDGEPORT will get this s34,454.75 and it will stay in

 Lest We Forget

Mayfower Descendants Dedicate Sarcophagus
 To Band of Pilgrims

 The principal speaker was Benja- min Brewster, Episcopal bishop Of Maine. linea1 descendant of Elder Brewster.
 '@The monument we dedicate to- day. he said, "commemorates one of those stories of sacrifice which mean to human society not loss but gain.
 This occasion invites considera- tion of their adventure in it's rela- ton to the broad currents of thought which affect powerfully the tans, yet with difference. They followed the logic of their individ- ualistic creed to it's conclusion. ideal of church they were more single handed than the bulk of the Puritan party. They sacrificed the lesser loyalty to authority to the the step of separatism repugnant to the Puritans no less than to anglicans in full sympathy with the ritual or the the prayer book and the heosu rule ,o or tween Imprisonment and exile, they became pilgrims"
 Bishop Brewster, pointiig out that against the dangers of 'disputation in religion and argued for civil tol- erance of alleged religious errors, added:
 NOW IL IS Ihe simple IruCh una | in the temper of the Plymouth col ony-by contrast particularly with the strong neighbortng colony of Massachusetts Bay-we see plainly the fruit of this Christian wisdom of their pastor whom they had left behind. This distinction has not all ways been recognized and historical justice demands that we recognize it. In sympathy with the spirit of their open-mindod pastor, the Plymouth Pilgrims had moved from a position of negative revolt to a positive stage.

 In the towns and villages. com munes and children's homes, we have seen what the war. the blockade, the revolution and worst of all, the drought have done to the people of this great granary of the Russians.

Stamford, Conn.,, Sept s-Fourteen men charged with keeping or fre- quenting a gambling house who were arrested in the raid on the so-called Dewey Social Club. following the hold-up of the place by bandits and the killing of Bernard Kilkely, a trolley conductor on August 2S, were arraigned in the police court here today.

Straw Hats

One more week remains before the curfew rings on the alfalfa headgear. In seven more days, straw top-pieces must be carefully packed in camphor balls and relegated to the topmost shelf in the wardrobe. Dictates of Dame Fashion decree that the sum mer mode of head covering must be passed after the fifteenth of Septem- Der. And where is the mere man willing to ignore the stern dictates,
 Fall hats are already making their appearance, and judging from early indications derbies will be more pop ular than ever. Soft hats in the t'pan- cake'' shape will be the vogue again, and light grey and pearl colors are expected to be in demand.
