Want To Make More Precincts
 In Hartford

Following conference yesterday at which Mayor Kinsella, Corpora ton Counsel Butler and Registrars of Voters Nystrom and Cotter were present the mayor announced that progress is being made on his pro posal that Hartford be divided into fifty or more voting precincts, 1n- stead of fifteen, that the electors vote in schools, firehouses and other desig- mated places on election day and that increased facilities be provided for the convenience of the voting population of the city.
 Question of Division
 The main question is whether we can divide the wards equally into precincts was the statement of the mayor after the registrars mad sup piled information relative to their inspection trips to Bridgeport and New Haven, where particular atten- tion was given to the manner in which voting precincts in those cit ies were divided.
 The mayor said decision has been made as to the procedure or the course of action to be followed He pointed out that yesterdays con- ference was in the nature of a re- port from the registrars as to the in formation which they, in company with representatives of the republi- can and democratic town committees obtained when they went to New Haven and Bridgeport to study this problem.

Fires Being Well
 COmbatted Here

Fires in Bridgeport are being we'll con1ba1ed. Comparative figures for Bridgeport in 1921 and 1922 are of ahe sort which makes a taxpayer and citizen feel that he is being amply protected. The outstanding feature g of the reports for the months or dune, 1921, and June. 1922, are that in neither of these two months was there any exposure" loss.
 The Fire department knows an ex- posture loss as being one which 1s caused by the spread of a fire from one building to another. The fact that no property loss has been caus- ed by the spread of fires shows one big thing and that is that the fire fighters are right on the job when an alarm is sounded and by quick and efficient work prevent the spread of the fire from the place where 1t started to adjoining or adjacent buildings.
 There was many a dollar saved on fire loss in June of this year as com pared with last year. The loss in June. 1921, was s4,567.33 as compar- ed with a loss of $1.5os.5o In 1922. This shows that the loss this year was $3,o5s.s3 less than last year.
 The total alarms for June this year were 47; last year 55. Bell alarms in both June months were 16. Still alarms in June. 1922, accounted for 31 runs; 1921 for 39 calls. One false alarm was reported last month, none were reported in June, @921.

WELSH HOME RULE
BILL is TALKED OUT
IN BRITISH COMMONS

LONPUN, I'D, 9-Tha Welsh
Home Rule Bill, introduced in Com
mons. had the advantage of the
blessing OF the Scottish home rulers
who said the measure was in line
with their desires.
The bills chief features provide for
new Welsh parliament house erect
ed at British expense, and the es-
adjustment of Welsh legislature to
deal with matters like education
health, licensing and police.
Welsh members said the present
situation treated Wales like an Eng
lish county. The bill was designed
20 pave the way for an all-round mea-
sure of home rule, and make the
United Kingdom a federation of pro
vinces like the Dominion of Canada
The Commons generally did not
treat the bill seriously, and the bill
was talked out after a hilarious de-
bate The general feeling is that I'M
til Irish home rule plans are re-
duced to a state bordering on com
plete chaos, it is inadvisable to think
IF extending the idea to Wales or
Scotland.
