KILLINGLY HAS
 BIG FACTORY DEAL
Million Dollars Involved in
 Transfer Of Plants

Hartford, Aug. 21.-The Attawau- gan company, a cotton manufactur- ing company in the town of Killing ly equipped with 50,000 spindles and 1000 cotton weaving looms, will be purchased by the Paco Manufactur- ing Go. The valuation of the Alta waugan company properties is s1,000,000, according to the estimate of Herbert H. Pepler, agent for the Paco Manufacturing Co. Transfer of the property will be made Sept. 1 and the new owners will begin operating about October.
 MT. Pepler stated yesterday that the Paco Manufacturing Co.,, which specializes in curtain draperies. will add new equipment at the plant. The new installations will include more spinning machinery for coarser productions and also additional looms. The loom equipment will in- chimes recently perfected and some of which are in operation at the Paco company's plant in Danielson.
 The Attawaugan company plant has been operating on short time schedules for more than a year, owing to the depression in the cot ton and textile industry Working schedules recently have called for four days a week. There are two groups of factories, that at Attawau- gan giving endowment 10 about 500 hands and another where 200 were

 The announcement of these new measures has been well received, on the whole, as attesting the govern ment's firm determination to deal with the financial situation without vacillation and as bringing home to the population in general the real seriousness of conditions in a prac- tical way as opposed to an adademic manner.
 There Is a certain amount of skepticisms as to some of the measures which the government in- tends to put into operation, those notably controlling trade. Many of these were tried during the war. but without great success.

PLANT CHARACTER
 GAN BE CHANGED
Scientists Tell Of Grating
 Processes

Ithaca, N. Y, Aug. q R-The character of plants may be changed by grating with the most advan- tageous method that of sorcing two widely different types to merge, Dr. Lucien Daniel of the University of Rennes, France. announced before the International Congress of Plant Sciences here today.
 Outlining his experiments with plants which produce tubers, but not seeds and plants which produce seeds but not tubers, Doctor Daniel said he had obtained plants having both tubercles and seeds. In other experiments plants which normally flower but once year were made to flower continuously for time.
 "DemCnstrative are results of ex- periments with helianthus tuberosus and helianthus annuus," he said. The tuberosus normally reproduce entirely by tubers and annus by seeds. Tuberosus was grafted on annuus and the tuberosus produced llOI OAly dti ldI luDtiClGS bul seeds from which were obtained fl plants showing certain differences in vigor, habit and Towering.
 'Tubercles from certain of these varieties grew into plants with aerial as well as underground tubercles, a character induced by grating and transmitted to tile next generation. This new variety, helianthus tuber- osus dangeardi, has transmitted the acquired character for four years"
 Scientists saw in his announce ment the possibility of obtaining seeds for different varieties from tuberosus plants. such as the potato.
 External environmental factors as well as internal factors influence the sex character of Towering plants and of the lower orders of animals, Pro-

lessor Charles E. Allen of the Uni
 versity of Wisconsin, said.
 The towering plants, he declared, appear to be influenced by mutila-
 tion, length of daily period of illu-
 imitation, temperature, and depth,
 water content and chemical constitu-
 tion of the soil.
 Development of sexual characters
 in metazoa, animal life of the lower
 class, he said, is believed to be in- fluenced by temperature. relative abundance of food. water content of
 the egg, free living or parisitic mode
 of life, the presence or absence of a larger individual of the same species, amputation of a part of the body and infestation by a parasite, all comparable with external factors in- tiuencing sexual expression in the Towering plants.
 Most of the scientists attending the congress were far afield today,
 making collection trips or visiting places of scientific interest. The sections for argonomy, genetics and horticulture were inspecting the New York state experimental sta ton at Geneva, while the sections for taXonomy, zoology pharmacog-
 nosy and morphology were at Junius making collections of flora. The section for mycology and some morphologists were at Mclean to study the life and flora in the peat bogs and ponds of the lloyd wild life preserve. The congress formal ly will close Monday morning with Q general business session, and the scientists will leave for their homes
 or will join the various excursions
 to the national parks eastern Canada or the fruit belt section of New York state, Rochester, Buffalo and Niagara Falls.

POINCARE REALLY
 MEANS BUSINESS
Intends to Stabilize Franc by
 Internal Means Alone

Paris, Aug. q. P-Premier Poln- care, by the publication of his drastic economic program calling for a period of penitence" has removed any doubt that he intends to try to stabilize the franc by internal means alone, without having recourse 10 foreign credits, which cannot be obtained without first ratifying the Washington and London debt ac- cords, at present impracticable ow- ing to the political situation in France.
 The principal feature of the premier's program is an attempt to restrict imports of wheat by ban ming the sale of fresh bread; by re- stricting speculation in wheat; by registering the wheat producing areas and generally controlling the wheat trade so as to make the best possible use of the country's pro- duction of the cereal.
 Other measures of the premier aim at the stopping of waste and the lowering Of prices. Restaurants will be forbidden to serve more than two principal courses, as during the war, and committees will be ap- pointed to watch all branches of the provisions trade so as to prevent manipulation of prices and at tempts to corner foodstuffs.
 M. Poincare feels that it is only just if he asks citizens to economize that the government also should do it's part in this dir ection. Conse- quently he has prepared a program of radical economies in the admini- strative services. involving the fu- sion of various sections of them and simplication of others. These measures arc being worked out in the various departments so that they can be put in operation at the

It's poor rule that does not
work both ways. The merchant
shouts his head off when the peddler
hits town and the newspaper man
and city council is importuned to
do something. The newspaper man
then iambasts the peddler for all
he is worth and the council passes
ordinances restricting his opera
lions by exactilg heavy license
fee. Then comes the peddler of
printing. The same fellow who
yipped so loudly when the stocking
peddler and the apple peddler hit
town, orders batch of letter heads
or envelopes from the printing ped
dler just to show his independence.
Seventy cents out of every dol
lar spent for printing goes for
wages and back into the Golfers of
the merchant for necessities for the
employees of the print shop. For
every dollar sent out of town there
is no comeback. If you get your
printing at home you have the
printing besides the chance on the
seventy cents spent in its manu-
facture for wages and an equity in
the other thirty cents. The same
applies to other goods. Buy them
at home and you have both the
goods and the dollar. Buy them
outside and you have only the
goods.

merchant with cash-in-advance
order and we will bet dollars to
doughnuts that you will do better

Remember also, that the ''cat"
house has the use of your money

purchaser and he guarantees his
goods with the return of the money

end. This is evidently due to his
fine run in 1922, when he came
within only few votes of crowd

off the ticket. Reports from many

there is considerable dissatisfaction
with the present administration of
district road affairs, and it appears
there are many voters in this sec

Assurance of support from many
