MILAN SEEMS ID
 BE OUT FOR FIGHT
Rumblings of New York Cam-
 paign Plainly Heard

New York, April 24.-Rumblings of New York's mayoralty contest next fall were again plainly heard today as the combined result of the action by Governor Smith on We'd nesday when he signed the Staten Island tunnel bill, over the strong protest of Mayor Hylan and a state- ment issued by William Randolph Hearst, publisher, that he would back the mayor for reelection on any ticket.
 The mayor is now rounding out eight years of service and, while no definite announcement has been made it is generally understood that he will be candidate for renomina- ton. For some weeks, however, the air has been filled with reports that the mayor would not get the nomin- ation without a fight. Leaders of Tammany Hall have been silent on the subject.
 Governor Smith, as the titular leader of the state democracy and of Tammany, has not agreed with the mayor, politically, for some time. When he signed the tunnel bill, to which the mayor especially objected, democratic and republican politicians alike expressed the opin-
 ion that it meant open warfare be- tween the governor and thesmayor.
 MT. Hearst. in statenent to the New York Times today, made 1t clear that he would support the mayor for reelection. even to the extent of backing him through his newspapers as an independent can- didate. if he does not meet with Tammany's favor.
 The statement said: "I do not see why anyone should consider the pos sibility that Mayor Hylan will not be nominated and reelected. He was overwhelmingly elected as the candidate of the democratic party in two campaigns. X X He has Loyalty supported the public interests against the encroachments of the
 
 profiteers." The statement added that the mayor had preserved the five cent fare, had built subways. had been faithful to the public in- terests and that his honesty had giv- en prestige to the New York demo- cratic organization.
 NO matter what any political or ganization may or may not do,' continues the statement my papers will do their duty to the public and support Mayor Hylan on any ticket or in any way that he may be will ing 10 run"
 Reports have been current in poll tical circles for some time that State Senator James J. Walker, q fayorite son of Tammany and a close friend of the governor, was De- ing groomed for the mayoralty nom- ination but there has been no con- firmation. Comptroller Charles L. Craig, a bitter opponent of the mayor although Of the same poll tical faith, also has been mentioned as a possible candidate.

ST. GABR|EL'S HAS DEMONSTRATION Over 100 People Present at
 Exercises in East Berlin
 
 FOUNDED 29 YEARS AGO
Mosel Manufacturing Named De- fendant in Foreclosure Suit-- Inanda Club Musicale Tonight Heavy Traffic Is Expected.

More than 100 East Berlin resi- dents attended the remuneration at St. Gabriel's Episcopa! church last night. suffragan Bishop E. c. Acheson of the Diocese of Connecti- cut was present, although Bishop Chauncey Brewster was unable to attend.
 The services opened with the con- secration prayers by Bishop Ache son. This was followed by the eve- ming prayer service, the lessons be- ing read by MT. George Mitchell of New Britain, who conducts services at the East Berlin church each Sunday morning. The magnificat and nuc dimitis were sung by the choir of St. Marks church, New Britain, and a sermon appropriate 10 the occasion was delivered by Rev. Samuel Sutcliffe, rector of St. Marks, who is also the priest in charge of St. Gabriel's church. The offertory anthem was sung by the chdir. the solo parts being rendered by Henry Christopher, tenor.
 Following the service the congre- gation inspected the new parish room. Among those present at the service was Rev. Asa c. Fuller, pastor of the East Berlin Methodist church. Several members of the Methodist church were in the con- gregation, as were representatives of other denominations. About 20 boys and men from St. Marks choir, cared for the choral work.
 St. Gabriers church was built in 1896 and the first rector was Rev. Arthur Gamock, who was one of the prime movers in organizing the parish. The congregation was large at that time, much larger than it is at present, due to the fact that the American Bridge company was operating in East Berlin at that time. This firm employed many English people, who were among the leaders in the agitation for an Episcopal church in the village.
 For many years the church was one of inc leaders in town, but when inc bridge company left, taking with il many of the supporting congre- gation. the parish became much smaller. For many years there was no regular rector at the church, the pulpit being supplied each Sunday from the Berkeley Divinity school in Middlctown, the services being conducted by the students.
 The church was placed under the wing of St. Marks in New Britain. on December i. 1923. and since that time lay readers have conducted services. except when communion Sundays arrive, when the rector of the church is present to administer inc Lords Supper.
 The parish. while not the largest In town. Is one of the most wide awake and the church is endowed with genuine supporters and all Its mcmbcrs are workers.
