 Rowboats were used in the streets of south Deerf1eld and at Essex Juno tlon, Vt. Automobiles were stalled and many roads were closed by floods in western Massachusetts and wash outs caused railroad bIockades It several places.

 New Haven, Conn, March s-Flood conditions were general in all parts nights heavy downpour. Some dam age is reported but as yet it is far from being as serious as usually ac- companies the spring freShetS in water courses in the state. Today's drop in temperature and the March winds which blew are expected to check the floods.
 On the Connecticut river the only effect of the heavy rain and the southwesterIy winds was the breaking up of the ice above and be- low Middletown~ and the forming of a jam of drift ice at the bridge of the
 
 railroad which caused the river water to set back over the banks in many places, flooding highways in Cromwell.

In, one house was the body of Mrs. Josephine Lisee, awaiting the time for the funeral and this body had to be carried upstairs during the night. When the funeral was held this morning men with hip boots had to wade to the door of the house and after bringing the coffin. down stairs they had to carry it on their shoulders to another street where a hearse was waiting.

 REGULAR CUSTOMERS, NOT FOR POLICE

Officers Doyle, Bro1ley and Larney of the Vice Squad yesterday afternoon went to a bowling alley at 267 How ard avenue to investigate a report that liquor was being sold there. Up- on entering the place they were con- fronted by a long bar with three men of small whiskeyz glasses Officer Doyle walked casually up to the bar and was handed 8, half pint bottle of zwhiskey and a small glass. After thanking the bartender and stating that he was sorry but that there was some mistake as he was not a regular customer he placed him under arrest on a charge of violating the State liquor laws.

PREDICT FEUD WILL
 ARISE BETWEEN BOARDS

That the Board of Education's fight against the Health departm ents con- trol of the dental clinic will open up a feud between the School board and the Common Council. was the predic ton freely made at the City hall to- day.
 Ill-feeling between the two iegilSa- tive bodies has been brewing for some time and the latest break threatens to create a breach which cannot be easily closed. It was inti- mausd today, that the fight might even be carried so far as 10 block the appropriation which the Board of Ed ucation will request for remodeling the Star Shirt factory into a school building.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-03-08

The majority of the members of the Board of Apportionment are said to be against the transfer of money from one department 10 another, and last year voted against making any such transfers in the future.
 William E. Burnham. president of the Apportionment Board, is one member who Is firmly opposed to handing the appropriation over to the Board of Health. In discussing the matter this morning, MT. Burnham stated that the meeting of F'ebruary 2S. when the money was given to the Board Of Education, was the final session. and all appropriations made at tha$-time were final. MT. Burn affair has now reached the '1buck passing stage, and he is not ninde ed to receive any bucks at the present time.
 Appropriation is Final.
 '"The approriation made on the last that's all there is to it." declared MT. Burnham. Last year we borrowed S3O,OOO from the Fire apartment and $30,000 from the Police Depart ment, but we were sure where the money to pay it back was coming from. This borrowing is going to stop"
 What appears to be the "joker'' which may keep the money in the Board of Education, is the motion made by Commissioner William B. Booth when the matter was finally disposed of by the Board of Appor- tionment. During preliminary meet ings Mayor Atwater stated that the money could be transferred after q decision by the Common Council. but in adopting the motion of MT. Booth, the board appropriated the funds to the Board of Education with no pro- vision for any change at a later date.
 Mayor VIII Hear Board.
 The ordinance adopted by the Council at Monday nights meeting is in the office of Mayor Atwater today, but has not yet been signed by the city's chief executive. Mayor Atwater announced this morning, that he will give members of the Board of Educa- ton ample opportunity to appear be- fore him before he affiXes his sigma ture to the ordinance.
 The seriousness of the controversy is fully realized by the mayor, who stated today, that he hoped the mat ter would finally be settled once and for all now that it has been brought up. This may mean that the affair will be carried through the courts or to the legislature. but it is the hope of all involved that it will be definite Iy settled by some high authority.

ONE LIFE LOST IN LAST NIGHTS STORM
PULLMAN, COMLEY, CORNELL ON LEGALITY
 OF ORDINANCE

The Board of Education is authorized under its general pow CTS to appoint dental hygfenists in public schools. It has express statutory authorization to do SO. The Common Council cannot by ordinance withdraw from any board its charter or state given powers and confer them upon an- other municipal board.-Opinion of Thomas Nj. CuIlfnan, former city attorney.
 The Board of Education is acting within its powers in planning its program of dental hygiene. In my opinion, any action upon the part of the Common Council to control the power of the Board of Educa- ton to carry out its program or the power of the Board of Appor- tionInent to appropriate money to that end would be altogether l1egal.-Opinion of William H. ComIey, former city attorney.
 The Board of Education has, however the A1gilt to employ dental hygienistS and the right exists independent of and JInaffect- ed by any ordinance which the Common Council may enact- Opinion of John A. Cornell, city attorney.

1o Veterans Of
 Spanish Legion Stranded InN. Y.

New York, March 8-Receiv- ing scarcely @ second glance from passersby nineteen 'Sol- diers of Fortune," discharged members of the Spanish For eign Legion who saw active fighting against the Moors 1T North Africa, today roamed New York streets, looking for places to eat, sleep and to work They hail from if States of the Union.
 Less than six months ago the men left this county, attracted to span bv alIuring inducement held out by spanish authorities.
 Today, on their return they could muster less than five dollars between them. They secured return passage after appealing to American consular agents in Spain to have them released from their contracts with the Spanlsn government.
 Two Americans Killed.
 Seventy or eighty more Americans. -,ccording to the nineteen who re- turned, also members of the TOT reIs IS. u Iegion. remain in Spain but are eX1 pected to return rbs0 s00na are % Martin M Cherry of Toledo. Ohio, and Benny Herman. of Philadelphia. Cherry was killed in 8 skirmish. Herman Was killed by a ''dumdum bullet nreu py 1 Moorish sniper. Both were buried in North Africa
 Almost of all of the 1s who return ed are veterans of the Onlteo Slates military or naval forces in the Worto War. The oldest, F. A: Gilbert A1. of Detroit, enlisted in the Legion Tn London after serving during the war in the British army. The youngesss' Charles Bernard, IT, or Rlcnnnoliu, Va left the States from New Orleans on Sept 4, 1921. Tn addition to pe- inr the youngest he is also tallest. SIX feet two. Running him a close second in age wss Guy J; onsv Wic1srsaaa' 1s and t6e Es smallest member of the party. one member of the group, John Hardy, of EIyria, Ohio. returned with another in his neck. Others escaped injury. ..,,. .r +bo treatment of Americans in the span tsh Legion:
 Pay Was Small.
 .-xve were offered transportation to and from Spain, four and one-haiL pesetas a day in pay (about S5 cents) and TOO pesetas as a bonus- AS h matter of fact we received one peseta a
 bonus
 we never had outfits to hrag about although they were better than those issued to the regular Spanish soldier. We had wool suits bought by the Queen of Spain from England and given to us as Christmas presents: We got heavy shoes, spiral puttees and campaign hats but no socks. belts or underwear. We once had overcoats but they were taken from us.''
 Most of the fighting the men en- gagged in took place about 72 miles southwest of Tetuan, in spanish Morocco
 ''The Moors are evils at lghttng, rhe men reported They fight behind trees and barricades and seldom show themselves. One day we fought for six and half hours and never saw a Moor. When we captured the town we found nine dead bodies."
 Because the men had no passports they had to go through the formality of Ellis Island just like immigrants. The process took 30 minutes. The men declared they still retain their American citizenship because they did not swear allegiance to Spain but sim Dly signed contracts to fight.
