TAKES FAMILY CASH
 AND HASTENS AWAY

Police of several cities. including Fan River. Mass, were still searching today for Albert Laioie of Putnam. who on Friday night, left his home in Manhasset village in hurry and has not been seen since. There is a war. rant for his arrest in the hands Of Captain of Police Jarvis.
 According to the police Lajoie went home reasonably early Friday night, much the worse for having partaken of liquid refreshments banished sew eral years ago by the Federal Consti- tuition. There was a quarrel in the family, during which the husband H. treated his children. the police were told. Mrs. Lajoie locked herself in room, the police were informed and while her husband battered at the door, she succeeded in getting out through a window and running to a neighhor's. where she spread the alarm. In the meantime, the police story goes. Lajoie pilfered the family savings, amounting to about S400 and left the house. Approaching a taxi man. he demanded to be taken to Montreal and displayed the cash to pay for such trip. lt was finally arranged. however. that Laioie should be taken to Fall River and he and the taxi man started on their way.
 Delay in notifying the police pre- vented the officers from arresting La ioie before he left the city. When they arrived at the home he had gone and the same thing was true when they went to the taxi station. They immediately notified Fall River police to be on the watch.

NATIONAL GUARD TO

Putnam Man Is Selected as Fi- nance Officer In 43rd

Bank Commissiorer Ranks As Major
 Putnam May Orgsnizeg

That State Bank Commissioner John B. Byrne of Putnam will be as- signed as financial officer on the divis- ional staff of the 43d Division. Nation al Guard. when the organization is complete, was the statement made in n news story that appeared in a Hart ford paper Sunday. This is of special interest to Putnam. where Mr. Byrne makes his home. and where last fall Mir. Byrne met in conference with a score of local men for the purpose of discussing the proposal to organize in Putnam a National Guard Company. Commissioner Byrne would have the rank of major in his capacity as f. nance officer of the 43rd Division. which will include nearly all National Guard units in New England.
 The 43rd Division, about half of whose personnel is made up of Con necticut men, will have federal recog- hilton within about two months. or as soon as the necessary two-thirds of the peace-time quota of 5000 men has been completed.
 Years ago Putnam had it's National Guard company and for long time il flourished, a company going from Put nam when the Spanish-Ameriean War broke out.
 For years now, Putnam has had no such military organization. It is one of the few communities in the state of it's size that has no such military body. The opinion prevails that one could be readily formed if recruiting was car ried on in earnest.

 One employe of the Frank X. Lu- cier store and one employe of William St. 0HEe have received insurance of Sl ,000 each through this method of protection. The wholesale insurance plan is comparatively new in it's oper- ation. There have been numerous group insurance arrangements by which employees of large industrial or ganizations received such protection, but this is one of the first instances fo smaller forces of workers in one great commercial group having a similar privilege.
