Calder and Livingston
Bury Patronage Hatchet
Kings Leader to Share in Dis
tribution and to Help
Re-esect Senator

United States Senator William M.
Calder and Elections Commissioner
Jacob A. Livingston, the Brooklyn
rival leaders, have settled their differ
ences and 'sburied the hachet"
The net result of the settlement
seems to be that Senator Calder is not
to discriminate against the Livingston
men in his disposal of the Federal
patronage which the Harding Admins
tration has turned over to him, and
Commissioner Livingston is to join
with the Calder men in rejecting the
Senator next year.
Pressure from Washington, exerted
through Attorney General Daugherty,
and from the Republican State Com
mittee, exerted through Chairman
Glynn, forced an amicAble settlement
CT the differences between Calder and
Livingston.
Asked about his choice for the May
orally, Commissioner Livingston said:
81 adhere to the idea that the Repub-
lican candidate for Mayor should be
from Brooklyn. The Democrats appar-
Gently are going to nominate Mayor
Hylan and we ought to have Brook
lyn Republican TO run against him.
There is lot of neighborhood senti-
rent in Brooklyn. A Brooklyn Repub-
lican would run better in Brooklyn
than any one from any of the other
boroughs"

FIRE DESTROYS OLD
RECORDS OF CENSUS
Data From 1890 to 1910 Lost or
Badly Damaged in
Blaze,

Washington, Jan. 14.-Priceless CEN
sus records dating back to 1870, when
the first enumeration of the United
States was taken, were DESTROYED Mon
day night in a fire of undetermined Or
IGN at the department of commerce.
The records include figures from every
census up to the present one and off
Gals said that it would be days before
even an estimate of the damage could
be given.
The blaze originated in the basement
Of the commerce building and five
alarms quickly brought every piece of
apparatus in down town Washington to
the scene and more than 20 lines of hose
completed the damage done to the rec
ords by pouring tons of water through
windows into vaults where the records
were kept.
According to 7. J. Fitzgerald, chief
clerk of the census bureau, records Of
the census of 1890 were kept stacked
outside the vaults and these were de-
strOyed by both fire and water In the
vaults were stacked aisle after aisle of
records dating back to 100 and ar
ranged according to years up to 1910
The 1920 records were kept on an up
per floor and were not damaged.
Mr.. Fitzgerald said that the actual
fire loss was very slight but the records
destroyed could not be replaced if we
had the entire wealth Of the United
States at Our disposal. There are no
duplicates"

GOVERNMENT WILL
AID new HAVEN
In HARBOR PLANS
Experts Said to Have Agreed
Expenditure of Four Millions
Proper.

After months of study in an effort
to define plans for the development of
New Haven harbor so that not only
New Haven but other cities in Con-
necticut, might be benefited by the
improvements, government experts and
others, called in by New Haven, have
arrived at a general outline of methods
which may be adopted. The proposed
developments, which have been the
subject OF much study by the war de-
partment and engineering experts, are
intended nj to meet the needs of modern
shipping. Thy would eventually cost
about 100000 but can be begun at
an initial outlay of 100000 The gov
ernment it is understood, will be ready
to aid when the city provides its share
of the cost. Due greatly to the poor
harbor facilities it is said, but three
ships flying foreign flag have put into
New Haven during the past year.
The original surveys were made by
Major Robbins, district engineer of the
Bureau of Harbors and Rivers of the
war department. Following his report
that the government would require aid
from the city. Mel. Harding, a noted
harbor engineer of New York, was en-
gagged to come to New Haven and out
line plan.
According TO the plan the develop
ment would be done in units of con-
struction. The first unit, which would
require an expenditure of about $780,
600, provides for the erection Of huge
steel and concrete pier and warehouse
at that part of the harbor known as
Waterisde Park. 1t could be covered
pier, on the roof of which would be
public promenade, affording SPLEEN
did view of the harbor. The approach
is planned through Chestnut street,
making the pier easy of access for
heavy trucking.
The other units would be similar
piers, which would not only help to
develop the harbor from a commercial
but also from an artistic viewpoint.
1t has been stated that the government
is ready to start as soon as New Haven
announces its readiness, and it is ex-
pected that the work will begin next
spring.
The first step to make the piers avail
able to foreign trade, will be great
amount of dredging, which must be
done. before the piers can be erected.
This will be taken up, it is stated, when
New Haven comes forward with her
guarantee that she will do her part in
standing the expense. Mayor David E.
FITZGERALD has been an energetic work.
er for the project which now has the
backing of many of the most promin-
ent and influential citizens.

MINORITY TO FIGHT
INCREASE IN CONGRESS
Connecticut Will Lose Addition
if Contest Is Carried to
Success.

Washington, Jan. IA minority re-
port opposing the Siegel bill, under
which the House membership would be
increased to 483 based on the last CEN
sus, has been filed by six members of
the House Census Committee
The minority, three republicans and
three democrats, announced that they
would fight the measure on the floor
Of the House, in the belief that popular
opinion and majority of the members
of the House were opposed to further
increase in the present size-435.
The proposal, agreed to by the ma
jority, that the membership of the
House be limited to 500 by a Constitu-
tiOnal amendment, also was attacked.
Addition of 48 members, as proposed in
the Siegel bill, would cost the govern
ment more than $1000000 annually, the
minority declared.
