something like $4,000 into the city

We wish to emphatically and Wig
crously deny that there is ANY truth"
in the statement that this movement
is aimed at any merchant or group of
merchants in the City of New Britain.
Such an ordinance has been discussed
at various Chamber of Commerce
meetings for the PAST three years, but
40 definite action was considered un-
| Til recently. On the contrary we feel
that such an ordinance would be big
benefit to the resident jewellers of New
britain.
An ordinance now exists in New
Haven. Hartford and Waterbury.
which is substantially as follows:
mo person, firm or corporation
shall sell or dispose of at public auc-
ton within the city Of, after s
o'clock in the afternoon, watches.
diamonds, jewelry, sterling silverware,
plated ware, clocks, or any other
goods pertaining to the jewelry bust
ness. Any person violating any Of
the provisions Of this section shall
forfeit and pay a penalty of fifty dol
lars for each and every offense."
| We believe that our common coun-
Gil will see the justice Of such an or
dinance, as have the councils of New
Haven, Hartford and Waterbury.
i Respectfully submitted,

/ New Britain Chamber of Commerce.

which he is bidding, and which the
auctioneer so deity waves before his
eyes? How many people hate to be
over bid during the excitement and
enthusiasm which attends these af-
fairs?
After he has given a few weeks of
wear to the article which has been
so purchased, usually at higher price
than it could be obtained at other
more reputable dealers, and he finds
that the finish" is beginning to wear
off, then it begins to dawn upon him

turns to the place where the purchase
was made, only to find the store clos
ed and the auctioneer gone to points
unknown; would he not feel as
though this sort of business was a
menace" to the public?
But that is not all. What about the
ieweler who has laid in a consider
able stock and rents his store year
after year, and pays taxes into the
city treasury? Is he not entitled to
protection from this sort of com
retition?"
Therefore, we take exception to the

CON7RADICTS RICE
ON night AUCTIONS
Chamber Of Commerce Sustains
Position Taken by observer"

Regarding a communication in
Monday nights Herald" by Council
man Henry w. Rice, the Chamber of
Commerce made the following state
nent yesterday afternoon:
December IL, 1922.
To the Editor of the Herald:
We note in last evenings issue of
the Herald a communication
signed by Henry W. Rice, chairman
of committee on ordinances, in re-
gard to the Chamber of Commerce
requesting a city ordinance prohibit
ing jewery auctions after 6 o'clock
in the evening.
This is quite true. We believe that
every individual who purchases Jew
elry should have an opportunity to
closely scrutinize the article and de-
Hberate upon its purchase. We do
not object to the sale of jewelry at
night, but to the practice of auction
ing it-after s o'clock. Is
1t is a known fact that "fy-by-
night auctioneers, who are required

Kow to Save Coal
Rules For burning Coke and
Anthracite Pea or BucIsweat

Rules For burning Coke and
Anthracite Pea or Buckweat
Carry deep bed OF fnel--even
above the level of the IRE door.
Shake the. crate to remove
ashes and lower the fuel bed but
stop when the first live Goals
appear.
Spread thin layer of anthra-
cite over the entire crate and al
low a few minutes for this fuel
to ignite. Next MI the fire pot
with coke. and allow this to burn
until blue fame appears, then
add another layer of anthracite.
After firing and seeing that the
charge is ignited. check OFF the
draft to the desired point for slow
burning.
When banking the fire for the
night, use less coke and more an
thracite. but otherwise fire In the
same manner.
Anthracite pea or buckwheat
can often be used alone with sue
cess. This will happen when the
draft is unusually good and the
furnace is amply large. Small
size anthracite ignitcs slowly. It
is best to fire one-half of the
crate at a time. allowing the first
half Of the charge to ignite be-
fore adding the second half.
Small sizes may be used in the
fall and spring II not in the
winter.
Rules for Burning Wood and
Anthracite Pea or Buckweat
Follow the rules for coke and
anthracite, substituting block
wood for coke. II is highly i'm
portant to see that the fuel Is
properly ignited and giving off
fame before closing off the

NOW THE SHOE PINCHES
FRANCE

One Of the wea:thiest industrial
magnates Of France comes out
with statement that France
will never be able to pay the three
billion dollars borrowed from the
United States during the World
War, and there has been much
cancellation talk INDUCED in from
that source.
Foreign nations, principally
England and France. owe this
country 81 900, 100000 and not
one penny Of it should ever be
written off the books of this cOun-
try. Every penny of this money
came out Of the pockets Of the
people OF the United States and
they are being taxed to meet thu
interest on the bonds which were
issued to provide the money and
they should not be forced to car
ry this burden much longer.
1t i'll becomes France to IN
dulge in talk Of this kind when
she was the most insistent nation
that Germany should pay in full
when the PREPARATIONS question
was under discussion for SETTLE
ment, and while other nations
were disposed to be lcnient
France insisted that Germany
should pay to the last farthing,
: yet she III turn is not willing to
make an effort, so it seems, to
meet her own obligations. IT all
goes to show that it depends upon
whose OK is being gored.'
Now tha: the shoe is on the 9th,
er foot France is the one which
is doing the bowling and com
planning
When the Arms conference took
up the matter Of limitation nf
land ornaments in order to cut
down the taxation burden on az
count Of large armies as we'll as
navies France was sthe great OBJ
strnctlonist. II she would cnt
down her armies and divert some
OF that money toward the pay
ment OF her obligations to this
country it could be handled. 1t
is certain. however, that the peo-
pie Of this country will never
agree that one dollar Of this deb.
be RENTED

their names will go down in his
tory as the greatest benefactors
to their fellow man Of all time.
Of course the price Of cotton is
affected by world markets and
economic conditions throughout
the world, yet it is a fact that on
an average cotton has not proven
profitab bic and the south has
grown Door raising it, There
should be a method worked out
whereby it can be made profit
able and we believe that coopera-
tive marketing IS going to prove
the solution, but even that is not
going to work unless it's pro-
dt1ction is controlled. That can
be done if the growers will heed
the advice Of the officials of
! their cooperative organizations
anu we HdEt> enough Idltu LII LHS
good hard commonsense Of the

AUGUST THE TIME TO SOW
Deep Flowing Not Important For
Alfalfa

Deep plowing is not the most i'm
portant factor In preparing a seed
for alfalfa In Kansas, says X. l.
Throckmorton, professor Of soils at
X. y. A. G. Many Kansas farmers
have the idea that II is necessary to
plOw nine TO twelve inches deep In
preparing to SOW alfalfa, according
to ThrockmOrtOn.
But deep plowlng Is a good thing
II done mt least year before the
seed IL put In, he says. The best
method Is to plOw nine inches deep
In July and keep vegetation down
by narrowing and discing II Deces-
sary till time to seed wheat in Sept
ember. Then seed the field to wheat.
Immediately after harvest the next
year, plOw about three inches deep
and keep narrowed till August IS,
or about that date, when the alfalfa
seed should be planted, provided
there Is sufficient moisture. Alfalfa
seed should not be~ planted when
the ground Is very dry. Wheat can
be sOwn on the field I'm September, SO
he field will not be wasted In any
event.

REFINEMENTS ADDED TO
NEW FORD ENCLOSED CARS
Demand Exceeds Supply as Rusl,
Season Approaches

cCuSOH AppIVaCHCS
Many added conveniences and re-
finements are to be seen in the Ford
enclosed cars now being displayed
by the local authorized Ford dealers,
the Cruise Motor Co., on Buckeye
avenue.
The interior of both the coupe and
the sedan is now finished in an at
tractive shade Of walnut brown
broadcloth; and the seats are uphol-
stored with similar material
threaded with chalked ebony stripe.
Heavy floor rugs give an added touch
Of comfort. Lifts, Of special de-
sign, minimize the effort Of raising
or lowering the windows. Door
bumpers insure tighter citing, and
new door grips, both inside and out,
add to the riders convenience.
The demand for Ford enclosed
cars has been unusually high dur
ing the past two months. Although
production has been speeded up in
the Ford factory at Detroit, sales
continue to exceed the output, max
ing it necessary for purchasers in
many parts Of the country to wait
for their cars. The local dealers say
this is the reason they have been
urging customers to place their orders
as early as possible.
