COURT TABOO ON
 B HARTFORD AVE.
Next Occupant Selling Liquor
 Goes to Jail

The next person convicted or Vlo- lation- of the liquor law at 36 Hart ford avenue will be sent to jail, Judge B. w. filling declared in police court this morning, as he imposed a int of s150 and costs and a suspended iail sentence of 15 days on Joseph Malinauskas, aged 36, Of III Hart ford avenue, and discharged William Zimitravich, aged 4s, Of 34 Hartford avenue, the former being the bar tender and the latter the alleged owner of a pool room and saloon where two bottles of beer were pur- chased last Saturday night by the police and found to contain 3.03 per cent alcohol by volume and 2.55 per cent by weight.
 Judge ". F. Maugan, defense counsel. claimed a discharge for Zimitravich on the ground that no evidence had been offered to connect him with the charge. Malinauskas sold the beer, Judge Mangan said, and thereby violated the law. The mere fact that zimitravich was seen in the place frequently and went bonds for Malinauskas does not prove ownership. A written state- ment by Malinauskas that he worked for $35 a week in the place and does not own 1t was offered in evidence by Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Woods but Judge Mangan objected to ad- tfi1p IT 1.-two Lo, q, an attempt by Malinauskas to place the blame on Zimitravich, the de- fense counsel said. Judge filling read | the statement on Judge Mangan's suggestion and declared 1t inadmis- sible.
 | Last Saturday night, Officers Stad- Ter and Cosgrove bought two bottles of beer in the place. Malinaukas was | tending bar and Zimitravich was standing at one end of the bar talk. ing to other men. Asked if he had any unlabeled beer, Malinauskas said he had none, but Officer Cosgrovt lifted the cover off tin receptacle through which pipes were formerly run to the bar and are kept cool and found several bottles, according to the testimony.
 ZimitraVich went behind the ba, and told Officer Stadler to take tn beer with him on hunting trips in stead of having it analysed, Office Stadler testified. Officer Cosgrov, testified that he had seen Zimitra vich in the place many times.
 Woman Fined S125.
 A fine of s125 and costs was i'm posed in the case of Mrs. Sophi' | Rekus, aged 25, of 65 Sheffield street, and Adam Stankus, aged 43 of 90 Church street, had his cas, nolled. Both were arrested last eve ming by Officers Stadler and Cos grove on charges of violation of tn liquor law, after an analysis of bee purchased in the Hotel Belmont res taurant at SS Church street, last Sat urday night, showed 1t to contain 3:o5 per cent alcohol by volume an, 2.4s per cent by weight
 Attorney Thomas J. Cabelus en tered a plea of guilty in the wom ans case, on two counts. He sai
 she had reason 10 believe that tn
 beer was within the law She sold for 15 cents a bottle, whereas bee is sold in other places for 25 cent l a bottle. The attorney asked tha Judge filling take this fact into con sideration in passing judgment.

TWO BIG FEATUREs-PALACE

The program at the New Palace for the last half of this week con- sists of two big features either one of which is big enough to stand alone as big attraction. War Paint" the great Indian thriller and the great Paramount spectacle Lady of the Harem."
 War Paint" starring Col. Tim Mccoy proved to be revelation in the Indian type of photoplay. In fact, 1t is the first time that the writer has seen an Indian story handled with any considerable de- gree of intelligence and the only time he can recall when an Indian is given the consideration due his race. The organization producing this picture did wise thing when they went to the great open spaces of Wyoming and selected male star who had never faced the camera before.
 Pauline Starke who plays the lead ing femine role, the daughter of the commaQdant of a western fort in the eighties, gives wonderful per- formance as does Karl Dane in the role of the drunken an loveable Sergeant Clancy.
 The companion feature for this program is Lady Of the Harem," which is story of ancient Persia Al {r1 .lo,, magnitude and lavishness with its

 Some months will pass before operation of the service begins as the airway must be lighted and funds for this purpose must be asked of congress. Emergency landing fields will be equipped every Is miles along the route and mail landing fields must be estab- lished at several points.
 The new service will connect at New Brunswick. New Jersey, with the New York Boston contract air mail and with the trans continental air service.

CURTIN ISSUES WARNING
 ON CHRISTMAS LIGHTING
Electrical Inspector Says Wires and Sockets Should be Thoroughly
 Examined.

Because the use of candles &p Christmas trees has been practically eliminated it does not follow that the danger of fire has been minimiz- ed, Electrical Inspector Cyril J. Cur tin said today in issuing a warning to persons who plan to use electric equipment in the decoration of their trees.
 The inspectors reminder to the public follows: Persons who are planning to make use of electr3o in- stallations in the decorations of Christmas trees in their homes this year, particularly those who have trimmings left over from ansther year. should be careful to see that the wiring is properly covered and the sockets tight A few moments de- voted to an inspection of the sockets may save property damage and pre- vent occurrences to mar the pleasure of the holidays not only for the householders but also for the fare men, whose welfare also deserves consideration. Although the exposed flame accompanying lighted candles is problem infrequently found nowadays, electrical installations, when defective, present hazard equally as dangerous"

 New Britain theatergoers have a surprise in store for them when a glimpse of the interior of this mod ern playhouse is caught. the decor ations being singularly attractive.
 Work has been rushed to com plete it on the opening date and to the casual eye the editlce looks as if it might already be completed. Such is not the case, however, since there are many minor things that require painstaking care and labor before they can really be considered ready for an opening under the critical gaze of New Britain's select motion picture devotees.

Respect for Authority
 An Aid to Married Men

Boston, Dec. 23 Pl-Married men have more respect for authority, more mature judgment and a great CT sense of responsibility than single men and are, therefore, more care full automobile drivers.
 This is the conclusion reached by the accident prevention bureau of the Association of Mutual Liability Insurance companies.
 The statement is based on an analysis of several thousand high way accidents in 1926, the bureau explained. The study, made by safe ty experts, revealed that single men were involved in more than half of all highway accidents.
 "A greater sense of responsibility, more mature judgment, more gen. eral obedience to traffic rules and regulations and a more sincere respect for authority are factors which make married men the best drivers, the report said.
