ALIEN DID MOST TALKING
 AT MEETING

In spite of New Haven turning down the city manager form of gov ernrnent those fostering the idea ir Stratford have taken a new lease or life and have gained heart, for they have c brand new, red hot argument do away with the present town meet ing idea of sWaying the operations ot the various municipal bodies.
 Just a few nightsj ago a town meet ing overwh elIningly turned down the proposition to add a special tax of one mill to take care of the necessary charity work brought about by the abnormal condition of unemployment which has hit StratfOrd along with the rest of the country.
 Now that the smoke of battle has cleared away it is alleged that inveS- tigation has disclosed the fact that
 many who occupied a lot of space at the meeting, had a lot to say, and if naIIy helped vote down the prOpoSi- tion were not legal voters, or were minors, and the most startling dis closure is that a certain party who had much to say has proved to be an alien.
 be regarding the council manager plan it seems highly improbable that the present condition will much long CT be allowed to prevail. New resi- dents who have come to Stratford from the four corners of the globe are accustomed to seeing things handled in a more modern manner, and as soon as they get their bear ings and feel qualified to speak, will be heard from. This is especially true of the Paradise Green. Floral Park and Huntington road sections, where pra ctica1ly all of the newcomers are property owners. and honest to good ness American citizens.

Plan Campaign To Put Special
 Tax Through

Anticipating that voters in the Putney and OronCque districts will be likely to oppose the proposition to levy a special tax of tWO-thirds of one mill to take care of fire depart ment needs because of the fact that in these two outlying districts at the present time, no benefits are derived from the fire department, the Board of Fire Commissioners Is planning to start a campaign of conviction.
 The conviction is to be along two lines. The pumping engine when ready for use, can be hooked up to most any stream, pond or well, which under present hydrant conditions would give fire protection to many To- caLties that now are absolutely un- protected. But the big movement on foot for which committees have been appointed. Is to ascertain just what IS necessary to be done to in sure the early extension 0f the water mains to OronoUue and Putney.
 The subject of hydrants was given a fresh start when William Hart, a member of the Board of Finance, also connected for years with the Bridgeport HydrauIic Co, called at tentiOn to the nact that Strat tfOrd is enjoying service from 70 mains with out cost to the town. The hydraTrts have been painted green for some time past, following out mebody's idea of a pretty color scheme but in places where the grass is allowed to grow tall, which places are 1unael,- ous 1t is a job for a detective de- partment to find the hydrants es- DeciaTy at night. For this req sor. following out the Bridgeport idea. the openings to the mains ir some 250 odd locations in Stra tford will be painted a bright red within 9 short sDaCe of time.

IN RUSSIA CLAIMS
 MANY

l , Wnkes-Barre, Pa, June 15.---The horrors of life in Russia under the 1 Bolshev1st regime are more terrible than they have been pictured by news paper correspond ents.
 Starvatfon is gripping the young ana old; Women and children are fering is terrible. There is little or no help.
 Jews are the particular subjects for venomous attacks and persecution. from Russia in a letter to Louis Gold s9ein, tailor, of No- 131 South Main street, this city. from his relatives The letter paints a picture of the ap- | palltng conditions in Russia Goldstein is informed of the death by starvation of his mother, his three uncles and an aunt This is the first who live in Rovno. The victims lived In Nichudnov, a village of the Uk- Taine- A year ago it fell into the tins sold their home for 1,5oo rubles and started for Rovno in the hope of getting passage to America The dis lance between Nichudnoy and Rovno is 1?5 miles, and it required almost two months for them to make the journey, walking most of the way.
 They set out in the winter and had to contend with fhe severe February weather. They had secured passports, but when they reached Royno they were told mistake had been made and another Goldstein family had Louis Goldstein, in this city, and he sent money through relief agent. but it came too late The letter just received follows:
 ceiving your money. It was too late; she died of starvation She had not eaten in eight days and her system was dried out In her dying moments F, oil down her throat, as she was being burned alive. She was a shriyelled form when she died
 Money Is Without Value.
 with the money you sent us we were able to give her proper fu- neral, and we were envted by others because it is something rare now adays Had she been buried in Nj chudnov she would have been interTed in rags, as there even the living wear only rags. Don't fret that mother died; she Is better off than we are.
 We are hungry, and shere isn't anything to buy, even with money.
 'Rlood is the cheapest thing in Rovno. It is spilled on the street every day.
 'NThe Jews in Rovno have to hide themselys from the Poles, and there are few places to hide.
 '"The Poles kill us on Fhe streets.
 'If there is a Christian who offers his home for the Jews protection he himself Is punished.
 "Organized bands of rufhans offer ten rubles, or a pound of salt, as a prize for every Jew offered up to them. A pound of salt Is worth 25 rubIes. So you can see the plight we are in."
 The brothers tell the pathetic story of a young woman, a cousin, who IS dying a slow death, with her dausn- ter, of starvation
 ''She used to serve at 'Simchez' eel ebrations. but there are no celebra- tions in Russia any more So she Is starving. She appeals for help to her husband in America and begs him not to forget Ter and their little daugh- ter"
