WATERBURY DEFEAT
 PUT ON R0RABACk
Democrats Made Most of His Con. neCtion With Power Company

Waterbury, Nov. 9.---What was the cause of such an overwhelming dem ocratic victory in Waterbury In the face of better than normal repub- lican victory statewise, especially when the head of the republican ticket was a local man, was a prop lem over which local politicians did considerable mulling yesterday
 Although the republican leaders will not admit that there was any cause except the natural democratic majorities reasserting itself, coupled with a slight reaction against the national republican administration, other thinks claimed they could point to other causes.
 'Rorabackism" Issue.
 One of the principal issues con tinually pounded on by democratic orators locally was so-called "Rora- backism'. It is the belief of many republicans that the big demo- cratic majority was rolled up as result of this continual hammering. The democratic orators realized that Waterbury had a particular interest in natural resources and public util- ities, due to the trouble the city has had with the Connecticut Light and Power company over the water sup ply in the Shepaug, the protest against the Decent trolley fare. Many republicans for long time had been resentful on account of these three issues and when the democratic ora- tors charged the republican state machine with being responsible for the condition of all three matters they naturally expressed their pro test in the only possible way by vot- ing for the opposite party The feel ing on the Shepaug issue has beer particularly strong. it being felt thai the power company had impeded the city's development of its water re- sources there.
 Of course the republican leader: do not admit this, pointing out thai the democratic majority this veal was but little larger than that in the city election year ago and say tha' the city has been growing increas ingly democratic for some time. par tlcularly in the old time strong re publican wards, the second ane thirds

 Boston, Nov. Entertainment of Georges Clemenceau, former premier of France, during his visit here on November 22 to deliver an address was the subject of controversy today. The immediate effect of the squabble was to eliminate the city as official host of the 'tiger".

successfully defended his world
junior lightweight" title tonight,
receiving the judges decision af-
ter a 15-round contest with Vim
cent Pepper" Martin, of Brook
lyn.
In the first round Dundee sent
Martin to his knees with a sharp
left to the chin. Martin was wild
and missed often as the speedy
Italian danced about him, rushing
him to the ropes time and again.
They were in a series of vicious ex-
changes in the second, Dundee
landing cleaner and pftener. They
both jumped and danced in the
third, exchanging heavy punches to
the jaw.
The fourth was another series Of
hard exchanges. Mattin holding his
own in the punching. He was
made to miss often, however by
the willy italian. Martin adopted
the Dundee jumping and lodging
tactics in the fifth and clipped
Dundee with hard lefts to the chin
several times. Martin shook the
Italian in the sixth with hard
rights to the jaw.
They slowed down in the sew
enth after Martin had shaken Dun
dee with right uppercut, the ltal-
ian launched a two-handed assault
to the head. Dundee started q
punching bee in the eighth and
Martin responded willingly. 1t was
about an even exchange. There
was little heavy action in the
ninth.
Dundee punched Martin at Will
in the tenth after bringing blood
from his nose with a straight
right. Martin attacked Dundee
cautiously in the eleventh and
Dundee answered with shower of
rights and lefts to the jaw and
body. The twelfth was slow ana
uninteresting, with Martin always
on the defensive. u
Martin came out full of fight IN
the thirteenth but Dundee put him
on the defensive again with
sharp left to the chin that sent him
to the ropes. Dundee pummelled
Martin all about the ring in the

FORD TO FIGHT
HIGH PRICES Of
COAL; To CLOSE
PLANTS SEPT. IS
Manufacturer, It Is Report
ed, viii Begin a Battle
for What He Believes Is
a Great Principle,
DENIES THERE is A
SHORTAGE OF FUEL
Believes He Is in a Better
Position Than Anyone
Else to Make War on Al
Ieged PrOfiteering,

Detroit, Aug, 2S (by the Associ-
ated Press.)--Henry Ford in an
nouncing Saturday that his plants
would be closed SeptemberI 16 be-
cause of conditions in the coal in
dustry, began a fight for what he
believes is a great principle, the
Associated Press was informed to-
day in sources close to the manu-
facturer.
Mr.. Ford, it was stated, has
started what he declares is a fight
against alleged profiteering in coal
and he believes he is in a better
position perhaps to do so than
any one else He feels, it was
stated, that by taking up the fight,
he is doing every other manufac-
turer as well as working men
throughout the country real ser
vice.
No Coal Shortage.
Mr.. Ford denies there is coal
shortage. The Investigations of his
representative have convinced
him, it was stated, that coal brok-
ers of the country have an enor-
nous supply Of coal on hand. The
Ford Motor company could obtain
enough coal to cover a tract ten
acres square if it would submit to
being victimized by profiteers, it
was declared,
For several weeks, it was assert
ed, the Ford offices at Dearborn
have been flooded with offers of
coal with deliveries guaranteed. 1t
was declared that the prices asked
ranged from 100 to 800 per cent
above the normal cost,
The Detroit manufacturer be-
lieves that if he yields to what he
terms 'the hold up of the coal
brokers, every other manufactuT-
er will follow suit and that coal
prices will reach all unprecedent-
ed figure. One source close to Mr.,
Ford said the manufacturer had
Ford said the manufacturers had
of working men being unable to
buy enough coal to keep their
families warm because of the
prices that eventually would be
asked "unless this profiteering was
nipped in Its inception.
Offer to Sell Mines.
The Ford company recently has
received a large number of offers
on the part of coal operators to
sell mines. None Of these offers
has been seriously considered how
ever, because of the present trans
portation conditions. 1t was ex-
planned by persons close to Mr..
Ford today that the offering of
mines meant but. little, as they
can be purchased now for almost
nothing because of the large
stocks of coal held by brokers'"
The manufacturer still believes
linking of the Louisville and De-
troit, Toledo and Ironton railroads,
the latter his own property, would
solve not only the Ford company
problems but those of every other
coal user in the lakes region.

THOUSANDS OF POUNDS
OF FISH BEING CAUGHT
BY ARTESIA FISHERMEN

Artesia, N. NJ, Aug. 2S.--Thou-
sands of pounds OF fish are being
brought to Artesia by local fish
ermen, who are taking advantage
of the low water mark at Lake
McMiilin, near Lakewood, N. M.
The large lake, formed by the
dam, used for storage purposes for
the Carlsbad irrigation project, is
almost dry. The river channel is
flowing through the lake bed, with
small acreage of water else
where. The headgates have been
open for several days and were re-
Gently closed. Hundreds Of large
fish were left stranded in the wa
terholes below the dam. Sports
men can secure the fish with their
hands and practically no effort.
Carp, buffalo, catfish and many
other varieties can be secured, but
catfish are about the only kind
which is being brought to Artesia
by the sportsmen. Hundreds of
automobiles have lined the river
bank below the dam for several
days. Thousands of fine fish have
been hauled away. The only
thing to mar the pleasure Of a
fishing trip, is the fact that the
fish can be caught with such little
effort. Just wade into the water,
select a fine fish. wrestle with the
big fellow a while and pick him
up. If landing net is used, there
is little need of getting your feet
wet, but this is not real fishing! A
large number of the fish have
weighed over thirty pounds and
great numbers Of the finny tribe
have weighed above twenty
pounds.
The headgates have been opened
again and an unusual amount or
fish is expected when they are
closed again or the water supply
becomes exhausted. The farmers,
aided by the irrigation project, are
becoming uneasy concerning their
water supply.
