Restaurant Owners Charged With Violation of Dry Laws
Special to the Herald)


 Southington. Dec. 11.-Echoes of the "clean-up" campaign inaugural ed more than three weeks ago by state and local police aided by 'stool pigeons" from the office of the Capital City Detective bureau, still continue to resound. Yesterday afternoon and last night two more arrests were made as a direct result of the work of the Bridgeman and Greer agents from Hartford.

Both were arrested by Special Policeman c. o. Dexter Pietrycka at his home yesterday afternoon and Hopko at his domicile when he arrived home from work last night.
 The police claim that they have the goods on the pair in in the form of alleged liquor claimed to have been Rchased from the men. Two sets of "stool pigeons" it is said, were used.

tax has been imposed on his strelN;th by his long illness and 1t seemed im- possible to forecast which way the balance might turn. The informa- tion from the kings physicians that the strain on his heart had been in creased by return of the general infection, deepened disquietude.
 It was believed that those attend ing the king were having an anxious time.
 During the night. palace officials were said in semi-official an- nouncement to be disquieted by the condition of the king. The evening bulletin read:
 His Majesty had a quiet day. The signs in the lung have improved. The fever persists, although it is not so high as last evening and is due to some return of the general infection which necessarily affects the condi- ton of the heart.'
 The bulletin was signed by Sir Stanley Hewett. Lord Dawson of Penn. Sir E. Farquhar Buzzard, and Sir Humphrey Rolleston. The fact that four physicians had again been called into consultation accentuated public anxiety.
 Reversed Today At the end of last week the phy- sicians were able to report that the infection which had spread through out the system of the king had been localized and that he therefore was in a safer position. That situation had been reversed today. The spread of poison from the infected lung to other parts of the system. must have an effect on the heart and accord ingly anxiety was felt.
 Sir Stanley again spent the night at the palace to be at hand in case ] the patient needed him. Medica. writers in the morning newspapers pointed out that the re- turn of the general infection involv- ed a greater strain on the heart, al- ready weakened, and that 1t had now become more than ever a ques- ton of the strength of that organ l and the kings general constitution. Public concern which was shown yesterday by larger gatherings of 1 people at Buckingham palace con- tnued to be displayed after mid night At one time there was triple l line of automobiles drawn up at the curb in front of the palace while their occupants were standing at the gate reading tho official bulletin.
 One anxious man. who said he was an Australian artist. paced to and from before tho palace for hours during the night praying aloud for the recovery of the king. 1 The comnss and goings of the physicians and movements of the members of the royal family were watched by the crowds with pa- ithetic interest. The fact that Queen Mary omitted her daily drive during the afternoon, caused much com- ment.
 The feeling uppcrmost In the minds of all classes of society was expressed by Sir William Joynson- Hicks. home secretary. when at a
 public dinner. he said:
 "All of us join more than solemn
 ly in the prayer going up all over the country that God will indeed save our king"

The legislative session which is 10 be convened within one month may be asked to consider increasing the representation New Britain now holds in the upper house by giving this city an additional senator.
 Members of the charter revision committee have been approached in the interests of the movement. but they have explained that nothing that can be done in the way of char ter changes can alter the city's rep resentation and that it must he brought to the general assembly in the form of separate bill if it is to he given consideration.
