 capital of forty dollars, which
 took them through eight states

 They are Albert Steade. IS, of 237 Park street, and Wanna Thorndyke, IT, of 297 Golden Hill street, and they are employed as clerks in Smith and store, where their fellow em- p1oyes dared them to set off on foot for Canada when the boys received their vacations.
 The pair left here on Sunday August 20, wearing khaki suits and packs containing a blanket. tent, rubber poncho and a campers kit for cooking. Also they had s20 each in cash and it is worthy of note they each had about a dollar left of this sum when they arrived home here early last Sunday morning.
 Striking out from Bridgeport on foot, the boys had not gone far be- fore a motorist offered them a lift. Walking when they had to but getting

ALDERMEN SEEKING MONEY TO SPEND VERY OWN SELVES; TAX BOARD CAN'T FIND EVEN TEENY WEENY BIT

who does some thinking on his own account, introduced a resolution, last night, as follows and to wit:
 Asking the council to define the term unappropriated revenue so that it may apply to revenue received by the city and especially the revenue that is to be received from Pleasure beach as rental.
 The resolution was passed and re- ferred to the city attorney for an opinion to be submitted to the next council meeting. Alderman Hogan's action was the result of the last meet ing of the Apportionment board, when it was requested to appropriate from it's unappropriated funds $1,OOO for the Board of Selectmen.
 The Apportionment board found that it had no unappropriated fund Alderman Hogan contends that the board does not know just what money is unappropriated and what is not The resolution is aimed to clear up the situation.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-09-06

Because control of money was taken many years ago from the Board of Alder men, when they want to do a little personal spending, according to their own quiet and modest notions, can t get any money to spend.
 They make appropriations from un- appropriated revenue, but the cruel Board of Apportionment and Taxa tion, which is headed by William E. Burnham. and number such hard shells as Senator George B. Clark, Gus Leverty and others, can't find cent. No siree, not a single cent; not sou markee; not even a tingy nickel.
 Hence Alderman William H. Hogan.

 For seven of the fourteen nights the boys spent away from home they slept in police stations or jails. One night they slept in barn and the other five or six nights they camped out. The boys were greatly impressed with Montreal but Thorndyke said today:

 While at Niagara Falls, the boys crossed over to Niagara Falls, Ont, and spent a day and a half around the resort. Their greatest difficulty in Quebec, was in trying to make them selves understood, they said, most of the population speaking French.
 Next year the boys hope to go to Europe, working their way over.

Washington, Sept. GA determination to prevent in terference with interstate commerce, but to press no interpretation of the injunc- tion granted the government against the striking railway shopmen, that would abridge personal liberty or freedom of speech or the press was the policy upon which the federal administration was proceeding today following up the injunction action.
 That there would be no use of
 injunction to abridge the constieats tional rights was stated by Attorney ever, that freedom of speech and freedo of press does not mean those mediums may be used to incite riots or murders His statement followed spokesman that President Harding felt the injunction raised no threat against the constitutional rights of the men on strike or citizens.

 It was added, however, that 1t would be used firmly to prevent inter ference with transportation, with the extent of any necessary prosecution under the injunction to be determined by events.
 With the injunction apparently representing a definitely settled policy in regard to the rail situation, the government was further concentrat- ing its attention today on the problem of coal distribution, particularly in the light of the virtual settlement of the anthracite tieup. Confidence that the convention of anthracite miners in Wilkesbarre today would quickly ratify the agreement reached at Philadelphia Saturday was gencr- ally expressed in official circles.
 The Senate leaders were hopeful that a vote would be reached today on the administration anti-prodteer- ing coal bill.

Between 2,000 and 5000 children will be on half time, at the worst.
