gave the car more gas and sped on, hoping to reach place of safety. When the men in the car behind, de- termined to get the booze in the car ahead. saw that 1t was slipping out of their clutches, they opened fire on the speeding car and didn't apparently care where their bullets lodged Such little thing as 2 possible murder did not deter the road agents from keep ing up 8 running fire into the rear of the car ahead. One tire was punctur- ed and the back of the machine was filled full of holes. The driver heard the bullets singing about his ears but kept on until the lights from the Cut Ter store loomed up like lighthouse to a shipwrecked mariner. Here the pursuers gave up the chase.
 The booze runner called Providence and notified the police. Then he cool ed off and realized that the police were not much more welcome to him than were the highwaymen. Before any officers arrived the man had dis appeared, and so had those who covet- ed his load of goods.
 From what Captain Bulger was able to learn about the affair the man who was chased by the highwaymen has been covering route from the capi- tai of Connecticut to the capital of Rhode Island, carrying whiskey. It would seem that the men who tried to hold him up were familiar with his business and the route he covered and laid in wait for him at Putnam, trail ing him out from here.

 Omer J.

 The committee maintains that such competition is unfair to merchants who pay taxes and in other ways help carry the financial burdens of ths city. They also point out that h many cases the goods sold by thesa peddlers are not as represented and that in some instances at least not only inferior goods are sold to ths people but short weights and measures are given, which allow these peddlers to ostensibly sell cheaper. but in rS- ality they are charging more than le- cal stores. This matter was referred to the ordinance committee

In the Near East,
are volunteers serving with a high
purpose. and they do not recognize
hardship when they meet It.
They have had their opportunity to
withdraw with honor from the field Of
famine and desolatiOn. They have re-
fused to leave, because they know that
their departure would mean death for
tens of thousands of women and chill
dren whom their efforts have kept
alive and whom they are determined
to save for better future.
A dozen cables are on my desk from
various centers in Armenia, Anatolia,
Cilicia and Syria pleading piteously
for the lives of hundreds Of thousands
who are homeless: "Slxty-five thou
sand refugees Constantinople alone )"
Refugees focking into Aleppo :"
"Twenty thousand refugees at Ismid )"
Zone hundred thousand people at
Alexandropol viii starve unless relief
is provided :" Refugees arriving from
Caucasus, escaping persecution, naked,
destitute Urgent need to save most
of them from death !" 1.-TWO hundred
thousand starving between Kars and
Alexandropoll Severe winter adding
to distress"
Above all towers the mute appeal Of
the more than 100000 little children,
orphaned, homeless, whom these Amer
lean relief workers have saved and
whom we here at home must sustain
not only through the winter and
spring, but through the summer and
autumn as well. If we do not provide,
they perish! And with them dies the
hope of New Near East.
The Easter season is here-the sea-
son that commentaries the Great Sac
rifice for mankind America is known
as a Christian nation. She is also the
wealthiest nation that history has ever
known.
Can we really enjoy our wealth and
claim the name Of Christian If we turn
a deaf ear to the appeal which General

East Relief, has sent forth broadcast
