Use Kerosene To Cook, Appeal or
 Coal Director

Hartford, Aug. 26-Thomas W. Russell, fuel administrator of Com necticut, late last night issued an ap- peal to the citizens of Connecticut to conserve coal by using keroyene and gas for cooking and oil stoves for
 heating purposes during the fall months. Mir. Russell was inform ed that there was plenty of kerosene in the state at present and it was be Heved that the supply could be main tained. The administrator stated that the supply of kerosene cooking stoves was normal and could be main tained provided patrons begin buy ing now.
 Mir. Russell was in conference to- l day with Norton Bronson, manager 1 of the Texas Oil company and James l H. Freeman, with regard to state
 wide appeal for the use of kerHo- sene.
 Mir. Russell, following the confer ence, issued the following statement
 regarding the use of kerosene: Cooking by kerosene stove is | cheaper than coal. It is more com 1 fortable than coal during these warm | fall days because the heat can be | turned off instantly when no longer needed and the kitchen allowed to cool. The way for us to avoid
 standing in fuel lime next winter

 measures right now, not tomorrow | but today

New Catholic Parish For
 Devon Folk
Populous Milford Vil- lage Complains that Church in Milford Is Too Distant.

Unofficial1y the Times learned to- day that one of the largest church operations which has ever taken place in the vicinity of Bridgeport will come in a short while when the catholic population in Milford will be divided and a new parish will be created in Devon.
 Rumors to this effect have been current for some time past and it is only recently that the talk has be- come serious. The people who live learned today on the grounds that the Catholic church in Milford is situated too far from the center of Devon. The people are inconven.enc- ed by their long walk or ride to the church in Milford.
 When questioned this morning Rev. Peter Mclean pastor of St. Mary's church, in Milford. refused to dis cuss the matter and said that noth- ing is settled as yet.
 It is understood that several sites for the new church have been looked at but nothing definite has been de- known real estate agents have been offering sites which they hold, but up to the present the authorities in Hart ford have authorized no purchase, The population of Milford has grown steadily within the last few years and the needs of the people have
 been steadily increasing. A few
 months ago an assistant was appoint GU to ol. MdiS s SHuIS ihis ho ever, did not relieve the congestion in the church and the people of Devon feel that a new parish is required for their welfare.
 There are many people who live ir Devon that are on the outskirts o1 the town and it is hardship for them to go to Milford each Sunday, when it is such a great distance. Mothers with young children are unable to dc | it and if there were a parish in Devon | the burden would be frightened to a great extent. At Hartford this morning Righi Rev. John J. Milan was reported to bi
 out of town. but Bishop Murray, whe
 was taking the place of Bishop Nila1
 could not be located, but at the Epis l copal residence. it was said that either
 one of the bishops would be able te give the desired information.
