ty-three general magazines and papers forty four per cent was in trade paper space. In New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania manufacturers spent nearly four times in general media what they put in trade papers, the speaker said:
 To be at par with manufacturers in other sections, New Englanders should spend at least ewenty-hve per cent more, said Mir. Bunting. They should easily afford this, as the average New England manufacturer does an annual business of $282, ,OO0 as compared with $231 ,OOO in the New York group and $2O2,OOO in the East North Central states.
 Mir. Bunting in holding that New England manufacturers should spend twenty-five per cent more in advertising said that of this increase one-quarter should be in class publications and three quarters in general media. By this he said he meant New Elgland as a whole, and not necessarily any specific industry and much less any individual concern. Almost every manufacturer here insured his plant his material supplies, his pay

NewLondon, Jan. 13.-A one-man troll ley car left the track on Broad street Saturday evening while descending a grade, and proceeding across the side walk, knocked down about eight feet of stone wall, surrounding the Williams es- tate and bumped into tree inside the yard. No one was on the car except Motorman Riordan, and he was injured.
 Jerome J. Cooper, assistant superin- tendent of the Connecticut Co., declares the accident was due to the trolley car being knocked off the track by an auto mobile driven by Meredith Lee of Broad street.
 After the car left the rails the motor man was unable, not having any electric power to put the motor into reverse and the brakes did not suffice

Bonus System Is
 Sop to Socialism
Declaration of Speaker at Hartford Central Labor Union
 Hall

Hartford, Jan. I3.-That capitalism, reading "the handwriting on the wall'' and seeing the approach of the down. fall of the capitalistic system is mak- ing use of different bonus systems and vigorously spreading various propaganda through the newspapers, the magazines and even through the church to keep the minds of the la boring people off the principles of the socialist labor party was the asser- ton of Charles J. Mercer of Bridge port at a meeting under the auspices of thcparty at Central Labor Union Hall Sunday afternoon.
 He blamed capitalism for the lack of employment today and said the time has passed when strikes can be effective. The only remedy is the ownership by all the people of all the industries. What the socialist aims at, he said, is the abolition of the profit system and the substitution of a system whereby every man will get a fair return for his labor; where the Tabor market" will be done away with and "where every man much work out his own salvation"
 He characterized the members of Congress as the representative of the capitalistic enterprises and said that the change would only come when la bor would come to realization of it's power, and organize in one party, not necessarily the social labor party, but one with the similar doctrines and take control of the government through the ballot

That the average New England manu- facturer-with some exceptions-put a relatively small amount into advertising, especially as compared with the average manufacturer in New York, is the opinion of C. K. H. Bunting of Boston, adver- tising expert, as told to the Hartford Advertising Club at its luncheon Tues day. To the Yankee manufacturer ad- vertising has often meant the almost ex- elusive use of number of class journals, he said.

that it has demonstrated since its

A constructive program of work
will be mapped Out for the coming

THIN OR PLUMP
FLAPPER LIKES
A MATTED MILK.

The popularity OF ice cream has
spurted the last two weeks of Au-
gust, according to Rock Island dis
pensers.
The matted milk seems to be the
fiapper's favorits drink. Plump
fiappers may warn that matted
milks are fattening, and slender
odes cling to the theory that iced
food is thinning, but. just the same
matted milk continues to be the
national drink Of ilapperGom
Whether it is the sweet, Sits
Tying taste or the wholesome,
strength building qualities that at
tracts the flappers, is not known,
but the fact remains that il is their
first recourse when the sun gets
little bit too hot.
Popular drinks are also getting
heavy run from Rock Islanders
this summer. Thought OF the tat
tening or thinning qualities is ban
ishe1 by summer san, the one idea
being to lessen the discomfort with
home cool refresl'nent.
But young and old. fat and thin
all stand by the matted milk wher
the rays OF the Gun become toe
strong.

RUSSIAN REFUGEE
PROBLEM rs BEING
SOLVED IN TURKEY

Lndon.-Final solution of the
Russian refugees problem in Con-
stantinople which the Earl of Bal
four once described as a running
Sore" is now in sight, according to
the London office OF the American
relief administration.
Early this spring the American
relief administration made an offer
TO care for the $4,000 exiles in that
city, provided the countries rep
resented in the league of nations
would subscribe the 10000 pounds
sterling necessary to evacuate
them to places where they could
be made self-supporting. The
American relief administrations
own funds for this purpose con-
sisted Of 100000 contributed by
the Laura Spellman Rockefeller
memorial foundation. With this
amount it was estimated the refu-
gees could be supported for four
months. The Y. M. c. A. also pro-
vided another $4,000, with which
the children could be educated aft
er their evacuation.
Seven countries have now come
forward with the necessary money
for evacuation purposes. They are
Great Britain, 10000 pounds;
Switzerland, 10000 francs; China
5000 French francs; Brazil, 500
pounds; Belgium, $4,000 francs;
Czecsoslovakia, 100000 crowns and
Japan, 5000 pounds.
The American relief administra-
ton therefore has initiated its feed
ing program and. according to lat
est cabled advices, nearly 10000
people are at present being fed, al
though the relief work was begun
only on July 8. These are divided
between S3S children under the age
Of four with their mothers; 700
children over four; 5000 odd
adults, and over 500 hospital pa
tents.
The countries to which these ref
ugees will be evacuated within the
next four months, include Hungary,
Jugoslavia and Bulgaria which
have signified their willingness to
absorb the exiles.
