MAY OPEN STORES { FOR POOR SUNDAY
Mayor Believes People Without
 Ice Need Service

Because he has found many of the city's poorer people have no refrig- orators and 6nd the cost of ice high, Mayor A M. Paonessa has suggest cd to the Chamber Of Commerce that steps be taken to learn the sen- timent of grocers with regard to keeping stores open for few hours on Sunday mornings, 50 fresh meats may be obtained for the Sunday dinner.
 The mayor believes standard Sun day hours should be settled upon by the grocers and meat marketmen. At present many dealers forego the pleasures of Sunday outing and keep their stores open all day. be- cause they feel rival merchants will draw their trade if they do not. Mayor Paonessa feels there Is much to be said in favor to remaining open for part of the day, but be- lieves the storekeepers can fix hours in the morning which will provide householders with the advantages of refrigeration, without depriving themselves of Sunday pleasures.
 The mayors letter was discussed by the directors of the Chambe- q Commerce at a meeting at the Bur ritt hotel today and was referred to the mercantile bureau for further discussion. Later 1t will come back to the directors for action.
 The director, als. voted to aGopt a proposition of sending one hoy from the city to college each year, the money to be loaned to the stu dent without interest and to be paid back later. An effort will De made to raise fund of s12,OOo to be de- posted on interest and the interest will be devoted for this purpose.
 It was voted to endorse the local move to appoint committee of rep resentative New Britain men 10 de- velop sentiment in favor of the world court and President Joseph R. Andrews was elected to represent the chamber on the committee.

fellow Indians all over the world to
bring such pressure upon the British

draw its forces from China, and we
ask all true Hindustanees to help the

gle. ca
