 and Approves Of Platform.

Allegiance to the ticket and platform of the republican party in the forthcoming election va. pledged yesterday at the quarterly meeting of the delegates of the Polish political organiza- ton. which was held at Torrington. Ninety delegates from cities and towns in Connecticut were present at the meeting.

This commit tee was composed of Dr. J. l.. Pia- secki, Joseph B. kulas and R. A. GrzyboWski and Attorney B. J. MonkieTicz Of this city.

 Few were aware of the limitation which exists in the new ordinances, the inspector explained 10 the may or, and the latter agreed that it's en- forcement might seem too arbitrary in view of the fact that the law Is just being enforced for the first time. Among those who might otherwise be barred is H. Y.

Investigation developed that Protasema had run out of gaso- line and had started back up the boulevard on foot to the nearest gas station, leaving a member of his family in the car. Shortly after, Thornbloom came along and crashed into the rear end of the stalled au- tomobile, which he claims had no lights lighted at the time. Protasema contended otherwise, however. and cutting Attorney James T. Mather in- structed the two men to settle the matter civilly.
 While an effort was being made by , Motorcycle Policeman Edgar Norton and others to clear the boulevard for traffic, Edmund Mar tineau Of 413 North Main street started his car at about the same time that Roy s. Anderson of Ken ney street. Forestville, who was just ahead, started to proceed. The re- suit was that Martineau's car colid- cd with the rear of Anderson's, both being considerably damaged. After listening to the testimony, the case was continued until October Is.

smithfeld. N. C., Oct. II LP) - President Coolidge was asked to call a special session of congress in November, to consider the de pression of grain and cotton prices. in a telegram sent today by Rep resentative Edward w. Pou, of the fourth congressional district, and ranking democrat on the house rules committee.
 Cotton farmers are threatened with financial ruin because of the recent decline in price" his tele- gram said. If they are forced to sell at prevailing quotations they must accept from 20 to 2o dollars per bale less than the cost of pro- duction. In this desperate situation I earnestly urge that you call the congress to meet in an extra ses- sion on or before November third in order that opportunity be given as quickly as possible to pass emergency legislation which may save from ruin the grain producers as well as the cotton producers Of the nation"
 Washington, Oct. Il OP - An average ot five cents a pound Is lost by the southern farmer who sells his cotton at the prevailing price of approximately 10.3 cents, Charles J. Brand, executive secre- tary of the National Fertilizer as- sociation, declared today in statement based on a study of pro- duction costs on 1,405 farms last year.
 Tn. cotton problem will require gradual marketing, with a wise holding of the surplus, producing at lower cost per pound and re- ducing the 1927 acreage" Brand said. The crop is produced and must be held by some one until 1t is consumed.

Discounts Are
Sometimes Confusing

A wag once said that a discount
reminded him of an overcoat, as
it had to be put on before it could
be taken off. We do not entirely
agree with his opinion, for in the
conductof business discounts often
serve a legitimate purpose and fire.
quently result in distinct savings
to customers.
But they may be confusing, for
no matter how generous the dis
count may seem, it is of no advan-
tage to the purchaser unless it
brings the Net Cost lower than that
at which the article may be pur-
chased elsewhere.
To avoid confusion, we refrain
from any reference to discount
percentages, preferring to have you
compare and pass judgment on
these values by the simple and sure
method of considering only THE
NET COST IN DOLLARS THAT
YOU ARE ASKED TO PAY.
