nesday with the organization of the
Board of Directors from the twenty
two districts into which the hurley
territory OF Ohio, Indiana and Ken
lucky was divided several weeks
ago by the election committee. The
directors were elected at conventions
held following primary elections of
delegates which were held Monday
In every one OF the 81 counties In the
hurley district.
Final reports show slightly that
more than $1,000 tobacco growers
have Joined the association and that
almost 200,000,000 pounds of to-
bacco have been signed up to it's
marketing plan for next six years.
Some idea Of the magnitude of this
association OF farmers may be gath
cred from the fact that their pro-
duct, which will be marketed
through the cooperative association,
as needed by the manufacturers,
and not by the old auction system.
VIII be worth from S60,O0O,OOO to
$1,000, 100000 annually, depending
on the size of the crop and the price
the manufacturers pay for it.
OF the $50 warehouses in the
hurley district not more than half
dozen will open for the sale of
tobacco, almost every warehouseman
having been booster of the new as
soclatlon, and it is the purpose of
the organization to take over these
warehouses or to lease them, if the
owner does not desire to sell.

CONNECTICUT CITIES MOVE
 TO SET CLOCKS AHEAD

Daylight saving proponents in Hart ford were vindicated Tuesday in their view that the mayors proclamation could not come under the legal hammer for in ringing upon state legislation, which forbids daylight saving. Attorney-Gen- eral Frank E. Healy informed House Chairman Samuel Russell Jr., of the leg islative committee on agriculture, that the mayors proclamation contained noth- ing binding, was only aHsuggestion, and, therefore, could not be legally construed. Mr. Russell said the matter would drop there so far as he was concerned.
 Definite steps toward placing Water bury on the daylight saving time sched- ule for the summer months were taken by the Rotary club there Tuesday, when a resolution recommending the advancing of clocks and watches was passed by an overwhelmingly favorable vote. A com mittee of five was appointed to secure the cooperation of manufacturers and merchants in determining whether or no: general consent to set clocks ahead can be secured.

It was the opin ion of the factory representatives tha the people of the borough could derivt many benefits through the adoption of daylight saving schedule. It was brough out during the discussion that canvasse of the en1ployes in the various factorie. 1 had disclosed that the majority of tn
 employees favored, pushing the clock ahead an hour.
 Resolutions suggesting that all time
 pieces in the mercantile establishments
 in the churches, banks, schools, theater and homes be advanced one hour at o'clock Sunday morning were adopted.
 Mayor David E. Fitzgerald of New Ha
 ven has sent letter to the corporation counsel asking for information regardin
 the legality of the daylight saving ordi
 nance passage by the city. Thus ia
 the opponents to daylight saving are i excess of those in favor although it i
 believed that many of the large shop

TO CATCH RATS IN CITIES
 FOR BUBONIC PLAGUE TEST.

The capture of about 5000 rats in New London for a careful search for synV toms of bubonic plague is a part of q plan of a survey proposed in Connecti- cut by State Commissioner of Health John T. Black of Hartford. The plan proposed the capture of 10000 rats in Bridgeport.
 The health commissioners plan was disclosed in the course of a hearing on q bill, unanimously favored by the state health committee, before the appropria- tions committee in Hartofrd Tuesday, ap- propriating $30,000 without delay for an intensive survey in Connecticut to de- ternine what steps are necessary to pro- tect the ports. and cities of Connecticut from invasion by bubonic plague He ex- plained that the plague is prevalent in coast cities of Florida and Louisiana from ships which passed to Newport News and Savannah which in turn sent ships to Connecticut ports.
 The discovery of case of leprosy in Connecticut within the past few days was made known to the committee by Commissioner Black. To avoid unneces sarily alarming people of the city in which the case was found. he withheld the name and address of the patient, but said that it was woman living in a tenement house in one of the large cities and that she had been isolated pending the results of conirmatory tests. Details of the case would probably not be made known he said until the woman had beer sent to the federal 1eprosarium in Louis | iana.
 Dr. Black told the committee that tht policy of the state health departmen was to give as little publicity as possi hle to the discovery of dreaded diseases because of he psychological effect tha sncn news had on the people of the state For that reason, he said the departmen successfully concealed the fact that case of typhus was discovered in Green wich last year. in which case treatmen under the observation of the departmen resulted in recovery
