PREMIER MAY
 COME TO U, s.

London Dec. 2S.-The submarine controversy may furnish Premier Lloyd George with an opportunity to make his long desired visit to the U. S., it was learned in Downing street circles today. The Irish troubles prevented the premier from going to Washington in November, but there is every indication that Dail Eireann will ratify the Irish peace treaty, when it meets in Dublin on Januarx 3rd.
 The supreme council will not meet at Cannes until the first week of Jan- uary and it is unlikely that 1he pre- mier will leave until that meeting is over if he goes at all. The Cannes meeting probably will last five days.

JENKINS co.
 TO PAY BONUS
 TO EMPLOYEES

In a statement issued this morning. C. V. Harrington, vice president of the Jenkins Bros, valve manufacturing company of South Main street, de- clares that a bonus will be paid to all employees. All our employees in Bridgeport, number about 600.' said MT. Harrington, will be paid a. per cent. bonus on the earnings for the year ending Dec, 1921. The award will affect all our local employees and will total about $5O,O00.''
 MT. Harrington declared that the valve company was one of the few concerns who did not reduce the wages Of employees and was prepared to take on more help as soon as conditions warranted. The past three months have been the busiest at the company for over a year and the prospects are very bright for 1922, according to the vice presidents s announcement. The present month, usually dampened in manufacturing lines on account of inventory taking. and an extra amount of clerical and checking work to be done, was eX- tremely heavy at the Jenkins fac tory.
 There seems to be a trend upwards, and people will breathe more freely with such announcement of good business in Bridgeport.

WIDELY KNOWN
 MERCHANT DIES

Word was received here this morn
 ing of the death of Richard Forester,
 senior partner of the firm of Rockwell
 this city. MT. Forester was a pioneer
 in the cloak and suit business having
 started his career when a boy in
 New York. He later rose to the head
 of one of the largest wh olesa1e houses
 in that city and left them to accept a.
 partnership in Rockwell & Go. After
 Mir. Foresters advent into the busi-
 ness they opened a store in Water
 bury which, until the time of his
 death, was managed by the deceased MT Forester who was 76 years of age was considered a very active man and his death will prove a distinct shock to his many friends both here and in Waterbury.
 of the local store about two weeks ago MT. Forester insisted on attending g and it is believed that the cold caught at that time helped to hasten his
 death. Christmas day he mplained of stomach trouble and alarmed the family to such an extent that a spec ialist was called who ordered an inl- mediate operation. The operation was performed and the patient seen- ed to be recovering when he suffered a relapse and passed out peacefully this morning.
 Mr Forester was a member of the l Rotary club of Waterbury having act i ed as treasurer for four years. He 1 was also a great charitable worker be- l ing noted not alone In Waterbury but i all over the state for his philanthro- ! pies.
 MT. Forester is survived by his wife 1 and one son. The funeral will prob- ably be held Saturday.

England And
 Germany Far
 From Solution

Berlin. Dec. 2S-Germany and Great Britain are still far from an understanding on indemnity, it was revealed today by Hugo Shines, the for emost German industrial and if nancial nagnate.
 "As a result of the Washington conference and the Irish solution, England is now in a position to breathe easier,'' said Herr Shines. ''This may change her policy. but so far no reparations relief has been granted. We are still far from an understanding.
 E'The Bank of England refuses all credits to Germany until conditions in Germany have been consolidated This is possible only from a business like establishment of state utilities, especially the railways
 There will be a meeting of the all lie reparations commission in Paris Germany will explain this country s financial position.

Noted For
 Charity Work
Mrs. Sophronia L e e Omans Passed Away At Her Home This Morning - One Of Best Known Residents Of City.

Mrs. Sophronia M. Lee Omans, widow of Joel P. Omans, widely known for her philanthropfc work among the poor and especially the children, died this morning at her home, 70S Park avenue. Although will cause great grief among rich and poor of the city for she was a good and true friend to both.
 She was born in Earlville. N. Y., the daughter of Abel Lee, and when very young married Joel P. Omans. The couple, accompanied by MT. Lee, came to this city ffty-one years ago and resided on Cannon strfeet and later on Courtland street. Two chill dren, both of whom died while very young, were born to the union. MT. Omans was engaged in the carriage manufacturing business with H. D.. Gates.
 Over 30 years ago 76 of the rep- resentative women of the city met and organized the Associated Charities. Mrs. H. H. Pyle was elected president. She served for several years and then the position of chief executive was given to Mrs. Omans. She served in that capacity until a year ago forced to retire and Mrs. William H. Griffith was elected president
 Mrs. Pyle and Mrs. Charles Wilmot are now the only surviving charter members of the association. Under Mrs. Omans' direction the Associated Charities enjoyed 8 rapid and splendid growth. Three day nurseries and a girls club were formed and extensive work among the poor of the city was carried on. After her retire ment she was named honorary presi- dent. Mrs. Omans deeded to the or- ganization for use by the sickly and undernourished children and weak mothers, her fifteen acre estate, 'springside FNarm,'' in Trumbull, as recuperation camp. Groups of 25 or 30 children were cared for for a period of two weeks while the moth CTS could visit for one week.
 With several other public spirited women she organized the Women's Staff for the Children's Ward of Bridgeport hospital. which provided for entire upkeep of the ward. When the work was undertaken by the wo- men there were facilities to care for only seven children and at present ed. When retiring from the office of
 president about year ago she was l made honorary president for life and at her request Mrs. Charles H. Arm l strong was made active president She was also past president of the Needlework Guild and was affiliated | with a number of smaller charitable organizations. Since her arrival in the ity she has been a devout member l Of Christ Episcopal church.
 Mrs. Omans was a woman of won- | character. She ever had a pleasant | disposition and rejoiced in being able | to devout her life to the relief of the poor and sickly.
