Britain Will Not
 Give Up Hong Kong

Washingt on. Nov. 1S-Britain will refuse to reIinguish Hong Kong, its greatest fortfication in the Far East 1t was stated auth or1tative1y today. Great Britain. however. will return to China the port of Wei Hai Wei. a naval base In Shantung province. 1t was declared. Both meet with China's complete approval.
 Britain may stipulate that the re- turn of Wei Hai Wei should be made contingen the return to China by Japan of the Nippauese lease 1t holds in Chinese territory, it was said.
 Wei Hai Wei was leased to Britain base. It was specifically set North in the convention at that time that the Wei Hai Wei lease should endure flor so long a period as Port Arthur shall remain in the occupation of Russia" With the transfer in 1906 of Port Arthur to Japan, it might have been possible for China to have raised the leas was not ipso facto terminated. No such question. however, was rats- ed by China
 This attitude of China toward Brit ain will serve to make the return Of Wei Hai Wei a matter over which there will be no qufbbling and one which might be interpreted as Brit aims reward to China ffor the latter's attitude in 1906, it was declared.
 Hong Kong has been made by Great Britain and it's position as chief mart of the Orient is due to the British activities there, it was said and for this reason, the retention of HonA Kong by the British would not be objectionable to China.
 China would prefer to resecure Wei Hai Wei 1t was asserted because 1t is in Shantung province.

Irish Peace
 Situation At
 Standstill
Ulster Will Confer With Premier = c r e a t Crisis In Erin Post pOned - Situation De- c1ared To Be No Worse, However.

London, Nov. 1s-(By The A. P.) The Irish peace situation IS not deemed in authoritative circles to have been made actually worse by the here to dts previously declared posi- ton.
 The overwhelming majority given In favor of the governments policy at the untonist party conference in Liverpool yesterday is looked upon as creating a better atm oSphere for con- tinuance of the peaJces negotiations in son1e form, although the possibility of resignation of Premier Lloyd George or indeed, the entire coalition govern frrent, is not ignored. The morning newspapers, however, do not regard this contingency as either imminent or evitable.
 There is some difference of opinion as to whether, if an inpasse Is reach ed, the premier will resign, or ask the oountry's verdict in a general cleo ton. The Ulstermen. while de- cfsive1y rejecting the governments s proposals outlining bases for an Irish peace. indicated willingness to en, gage in informal conversations and MT Lloyd George probably will take advantage of this to postpone the crisis further. It Is now stated that the premier's return to London was communication but had already been arranged previously
 The Daily Mails political corres- pOndent says ne mas lIl1liisslei it1i e1o- thor.ity in asserting that 'The govern ment now thinks they can see their way through" and hopes that gooo results will ensue from the anttcdpat- @ dinforrr1aI talk.
 According to the Times, there Is reason to believe that the Ulster communication reflects in its terms the message of Sir James Craig, the Ul- ster premier to the dem constructors In Belfast on Wednesday in which ne decaa,red the cabinet was 'stin striV- fne. to attain an honorable peace"

APPOINTMENTS ARE TO START
 AFTER DEC, 5

PGums from the heavily laden branches of the political tree will not start to fall into the outstretched arms of the hopeful harvestsrs until after the first meeting of the new Board of Aldermen with Mayor At water on December 5. The multi tudfnous tasks that have fallen to the do tof the new mayor are keeping him busy day and night. but he in- ttmated today that he will find time between now and December to con- stder the merits of the applicants for the 800 odd appointments tII whose making he will figure.
 One Of the first appointdve tasks that Mayor Atwater will tackle will be the selection of the personnel of the aldernianic committees. This is of more than ordinar Importance this year, due to the municipal superiority of the Republicans. While it is like ly the mayor will largely favor the Democratic members, the Republicans because of their strength cannot be ignored or slighted.
 During the 31 days of December, there are about 325 positions that must be fhNed by appointment be- coming effective January 1. 1929. While adl the jobs are not filled direct ly by Mayor Atwater but by the vari- ous boards and commissions, the may or will have sufficient influence to direct the appointments to the proper parties.

STANLEY WILL ASK S17,50O
 BE RETURNED

When the Board of Apportionment convenes on Monday, a request will be made by John c. Stanley, president of the Board of Police Commissioners, for the return of $17.500 which was recently clipped from the police de- partment appropriation. It is the opinion of the commissioners, that this money will have to be sent back to the department where 1t is needed for paying ordinary running expenses and salaries.
 Without the s17,500 which was diverted from the police fund, the de- partment will be able to pay salaries. but other expenses which are neces- sary for efficient operation of the force will also have to be taken care of. Unless the lost cash is returned, ex- penditures outside of salaries will have to be few and far between, according to one police official who discussed the matter this morning.
 There is good chance, according to present indications, that the money will not be returned to the police de- partIn ent, and in addition to this it Is also very probable that no new men will be appointed to the forces Certainly promotions and appoints ments will not be taken up before January 1, even if they are considereo after that date.

100 Garment Workers Walked Out Here This Morning
Women Will Pay $75,0OO
 In I axes

Thanks to their enfranchisement, women of Bridgeport will contribute more than s7o,Ooo to the state and municipal coffers next month. For the first time in history, they will dig down into their vanity cases and ex- tract two one-dolIar bills or one two- dollar bill and pass 1t on to Tax Collector Edward A. Drew as the first partial payment for equal political rights. Early estimates indicate that there are more than 35,000 women in the city who are eligible to pay the $2 personal tax.
 In addition to the s5.oo0 women. there are about 45.000 male eligt- bles who must pay the tax. On a 100 per cent. collection basis, s160, ,000 would be received but in view of the fact that no more than 80 per cent. is normally collectible. 1t is expected about S12S,000 will be realized. As the amount collected is divided be- tween the state and city on a 60-40 basis, Bridgeport vii benefit by the approximate amount of S50,090 while the state will get about S75,000.

> The new fare regulations and routing announced by the local management of the Connecticut Company today will have the effect, in certain cases, of in creasing the fares to be paid by residents of the suburbs of Fairfield, Stratford and Strat- field, and this portion of tho arrangement will be strongly opposed by the retail merchants of Bridgeport, and perhaps by the manufacturers. They want transfers for suburban riders, so that they can go to and from their work in any part of Bridgeport, without paying an additional nickel.
 A suburban rider now trav- els from his home to any part of Bridgeport for ten cents. Under the new fare regulations the same rider comes only to the center of the city for ten cents, and must pay an addi- tional nickel if he wishes to go to o1y polHt btyOIlQ lIl0 center.

GrOcers' Clerk Turns Dentist And Gets
 Away With Gold

London, Nov. 1s.-Goid teeth are increasingly prevaieiat in cer- trai Europe. the people evidently believing the mouth to be the safest place for what little gold they have left, but at least one thief has found a way to cirsum- vent even this precautton.
 A young man who recently opened a out-rate dental surgery in Temesvar, Hungary. has been arrested. charged with extracting > gold weighing more than @ pound from his pa fents' teeth, says the Lancet, English medical journal. His method was to remove the gold. after telling the patient it was badly fitting. take wax mould for the repiaee1Rens work and then instruct his victim to return in two weeks. Before the fortnight up he had disap- peared.
 Upon his arrest he was found to be a rocers c1ex1G
