MAY DISMANTLE BARS, EVEN
 WHERE THEY ARE NOT WET
New Injunction Move is Proposed By Hartford County
 Prosecutor

Hartford. July Is. Practically every saloon in Hartford and New Britain has been visited by States at torney Alcorn's investigators and the suggestion made to the keepers that the places be dismantled Of the bar and back bar, the swinging doors and the other appearances of saloon, The investigation has also extended to every town in the county, and States Attorney Aicorn says that where the investigators have evidence of viola tiers of the hauor law injunction pf> 5 .ceedings will be brought to close the places if they are not dismantled.
 The states attorney and his in- vestigators are watching the process of dismantling--and Mir, Alcorn says large number of the places are being tsmantled--before going to the court for an injunction order It Is currently reported that some of the places will resist the dismantling sug- gestion, and Mir, Alcorn expects some Of them will, but at present he has no Idea how many and he says he is determined to press the injunction cases where he is satisfied the places should be closed.
 Some of the places involved are not at present and it is likely that a test case of the injunction law which is a federal act--will be made of one or more of these.

LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Federal Judge Thomas Decision Is That Real Estate Statute of In- diana Is Contrary to Constitution.

South Norwark, July IS. - An opinion was given by Federal Judge Thomas sitting here today that a law of the state of Indiana requiring citi- zens of other than that state to se- cure a license from the state auditor of Indiana in order to buy. sell or deal either directly or indirectly. in real estate is unconstitutional and further ruled against one Egbert C.. Miles of Connecticut in the suit brought against him by D. c. Clarke. of Kentucky for ss.279 for services rendered in developing some 630 acres of land owned by Miles in In- diana.
 The suit, followed an agreement be- tween the two parties that Clarke should develop, advertise and sell land owned in Indiana by Miles and which Clarke alleges he proceeded to do It Is claimed that Miles ordered Clarks to discontinue the work after it had been partially completed but that Clarke refused to do so since there was no cancellation clause in the agreement and Clarke therefore sued for the full IS per cent or sS,279 for the work he carried out.

STATE FARM WORKERS BACK SUPERINTENDENT 23 Sign Petition Commend ing Her as Woman and
 Executive

Waterbury, July Ex-Governor Charlas A. Templeton has received a petition signed by 23 employees and officers of the Connecticut state farm for women at Mantle in which these persons deny that Miss Petersen, who recently resigned as superintendent at the farm, has permitted immortality and looseness among the inmates. Miss Petersen, in the petition, is com- mended 'as woman and as an ex- ecutive." Miss Petersen recently re- signed because of controversy over the management of the institution.
 The petition as received by Govern or Templeton reads as follows:
 We the officers of the Connecticut state farm for women, who have lived and worked with Miss Petersen, wish to state that she has our respect both as woman and as an executive. We regret that she has seen fit to resign, and whether or not she Is persuaded to remain, we feel that the people of Connecticut will always be her deb- tors. We feel the present criticism of her administration to be grossly un- just.
 Tn regard to the printed statement that we have seemed unwilling to talk about the situation here we would say that on the contrary we are more than glad to discuss our work with re- sponsible persons because we realize that only through a better knowledge of actual conditions on the farm will the work progress as it should. ,
 We deny that Miss Petersen has permitted immortality and looseness among the inmates. We are con- vinced that an investigation will prove Miss Petersen's ability and in- tegrity. We are willing to have these statements made public.'
