COAL ECONOMY IS
 NEEDED IN HOMES
Owing to Scarcity This Winter,
 Housewives Must Be Careful

Washington, Sept. 15.-While the average household heating plant is reliable, 50 far as the factor of safety is concerned, this is not always true in economy, says the Bureau of En- gineering of the department of the in- terior, and in view of a possible coal shortage this winter, the householder will have to be very economical in its use.
 The engineering bureau has com piled few facts on coal and its use. to aid the public until coal returns to normal production. The main point of the bureaus papers is the need for economy in burning coal.
 Coal Waste.
 It has been stated by good author ity, the paper said, that 25 per cent of the coal wasted in home heating can be saved. The main point in economy is cleanliness of the plant as soot is an insulator against transfer ence of heat and must be kept out of the furnace and pipes.
 Soft Coal
 Soft coal demands greater care in firing In putting in fresh coal, it should not cover all the burning sur face. If 1t does, the gases driven of are not ignited and escape. If the shape of the hrebox permits, fresh coal should be placed over the front of the fire near the door, then as the gases are driven of, they are ignited over the bright rear surface and add to the heat. Later the coked coal is pushed to the back of the surface and fresh coal again applied to the front. In the case of round heaters, it was said. spread the coal on the lower side only and the gases will beconsumed by the heat on the other. The grates should be left in fiat position, no part protruding into the fire, the department says, the ash pit should be kept clean as ashes cut off the air supply which may cause the grates to warp or burn out A bed of ashes should be kept on top of the grates to prevent burning out, re- ducing it in size as the weather grows colder and should never be shaken in until live coals fall out. There should be check draft-damper the smoke pipe of hot air, steam or hot water heating plants or kitchen beside the turn damper, to control the rate at which the fuel burns 1t to increase draft. All heat pipes in the cellar should be covered 10 conserve heat. and the use of weather strips, storm windows and storm doors about the house will be valuable. Place pans or open-top ars of water on radiators or in front of registers to keep air in home moist.

POLITICS INTEREST
 MANY LOCAL PEOPLE Situation Offers Plenty of Oppor- tQnity for Gossip
 STATE POLICE GET WHISKEY
Compromise May Be Sought in Re- publican Ranks to Assure Fall Vic tory-Auto Breaks Through Fence Heavy Traffic-LocaI Briefs.

Politics have again taken first place in the towns talk with much dis cussion over the breach which seems apparent in republican ranks because of the fact that the three districts of the town have each a candidate de- sirous of election as representative in the general assembly Much con- cern is evident over the fact that each district sems determined to send its own chosen man to Hartford. The faithful members of the C. o. P. sem to think that unless some change is made, the democrats may take ad vantage of this breach and put over a victory at the polls when election time comes.
 Just what action the leaders of local republicanism will take. is un- decided at this time, but 1t Is known that the leaders are beginning to worry for fear that the determined efforts of the districts will but serve to defeat the aims of the party; the aim being to put republican repre- sentative in Hartford this year.
 That a compromise is being sought was authoritatively learned this morning when 1t was rumored that in case the three candidates are un- able to agree on some united action a dark horse may be run in an inde- pendent manner in order to make cer- tain of victory. Just who this dark horse will be Is not definitely known One of the real leaders of the repub lican party offered the name of E. W. Mildrum of East Berlin as the one capable of running in this manner and coming through victorious. MT Mildrum is thought to belong to the old line of machine republicans and it is doubtful whether he would per init the use of his name. He is well known locally because of his activity in the insurance business and has a large following of friends in all the districts of the town.
 The mention of Mir. Mildrum this morning by one of the old line repub- licans shows that the G. o. P. men realize that there is dissatisfaction over the three cornered fight, and evi- dently Mildrum is conceded to be tower of strength when it comes to the game of politics. While it is known that Mir. Mildrum would not be averse to annexing the honor which goes with the position, 1t is also known that his business activi- ties are such that 1t would be hard

GERMAN PAYMENT PLAN
Bank of England Officials to Confer on Preparations Crisis-N1ost Notes Accepted.

Paris, Sept. IS, (By Associated Press). - The German separations crisis shifted to London today on the receipt of the report from Paris that the Bank of England officials would confer with President Rudolph Havenstein, president of the Reichs- bank. Some plan for the partial guarantee of German treasury notes, the payment of which is now due Belgium will be proposed.
 One suggestion which is under con- sideration by the Bank of England. according to reports from German sources is that the latter bank ac- cept the German notes dated IS months from date Belgium, under this proposal would be guaranteed payment at the end of six months and this would meet the French insist ence on the strict observance of the terms of the compromise.
