REMINGTON NEVIS

Newington, Jan. z5.-Actlon will be taken on the purchase of fire hose for. the Newington Volunteer fire department and committee ap- pointed to ascertain tte advisibility i of hiring visiting nurse at the special town meeting ts be held in the Grange hall this evening. A large crowd is expected because these two matters have been before the voters for several months and have aroused great deal of discuss sion. No action will be taken to- night on the proposal of the school board that a junior high school unit be erected at the center. The finance board has agreed to secure added information in, regard to the
 project and it will be taken up at | | later date.
 The finance board has approved an appropriation sufficient to cover the cast of purchasing 500 feet of fire hose and it has stipulated that l 80 per cent of the voters present at tonight's meeting must vote in favor of the appropriation. Some ques- tion has arisen as to the boards power to require this.
 The hiring of visiting nurse has been suggested by the school board several times before but the mat i ter has never been taken up at .
 town meeting. Approval of such ac- ton seems to be general throughout
 the town as the need of such a l nurse is we'll realized.

Signs of m early spring or m open winter continue to crop up on all sides in New Britain. the lat est being that which happened to Frank R. Woods of SIS Stanley street. superinte ndent sf the Corbin Cabinet Lock Co. MT. Woods left his car parked in front of his home yesterday for . short time. Later when he went to drive away he found 1t covered with spots. as though 1t had rained. Thinking someone had thrown water he paid no attention to it and drove on. La- ter he again left 1t in front of the house and again found the hood cov- cred with spots. His curiosity arous- ed he found the spots to be sticky. Further investigation found them to be spots caused by sap droppitE from a maple tree under which the car was parked.
 The incident bears out tho dis covery made by Traffic Policeman Hanford Dart last week that sap was running in . maple tree on the property of the South Congregation al church.

 Sent Telegram.
 We sent a telegram" Miss Wood said, "and then waited 10 days for an answer. We received none. Finally we decided to so as far as San Rafael, a little town near the end of the telegraph line forty miles beyond JinotNa, where the wife or General Sandino is a telegraph oper- otor, and wait for an answer from Sandino there. When we arrived. We were told that the telegraph line we had been advised to use had been out of communication for . month.
 We tried to reach Sardino through his father with our message of peace, but his father was con- yinced that his son would let noth- ing interfere with his sworn decision 10 die rather than allow his person ever 10 be profaned by the hand or any citizen of the United States.
 To Continue Operations.
 Tn response to our plea for time, Colonel Mason w. Gulick of the marine corps said that he would not stop operations against Sandino for five minutes. We failed in Nlcara- qua. but we left that country con- vinced that Sandino is not a bandit.
 "We wanted to to bring mes- sage of sym pathy and understand ing. We desired to tell General Sandino that there were better ways of achieving the purposes to which he has apparently dedicated his life.
 "We have come to Havana 10 carry forward our mission. We want through the establishment or educational institutions in Central American countries, to teach the boys and girls of those republics that there are peaceful ways of achieving their national ambitions"

 Times" Statement

 \ little band of quaker pilgrims led by Carolena Wood of the So- ciety of Friends. has arrived here from Nicaragua after futile at tempt to bring about a reconcilia- ton between General Augustine Sandino, Nicaraguan liberal leader, and commanding officers of the United States marine forces there.
 Tn an interview with the United Press today, Miss Wood recounted the experiences of her party In Nicaragua and outlined the purpose Of her mission to Havana.
 Through Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur. president of Leland Stanford uni versity and member of the United States delegation on intellectual cooperation of the conference, Miss Wood hopes to introduce for the consideration of the delegates here . proposal to revive the Washing ton pact of 1927 and launch a pro- sran of university building through out CAntral America.

 The party of Friends went to Nicaragua last November. Speaking of their experiences. Miss Wood said:
 Hope to See Sandino
 we hoped to be able to reach General Sandino. We were told that Sandino had decided to die for a cause. We hoped to convince him that he should alter his position and live for . cause. We were seeking, if possible. to bring about recon ciliation between Sandino and Gen eral Mccoy, since we believed that Sandino's death was inevitable un- less he would agree to conciliation.
 "Unfortunately we could not see eandino. We talked with his father some of the members of our party talked with his wife, but we were thwarted at every turn in our ef- forts to reach the extinct volcano where Sandino makes his headquar- ters.
 Dangerous Mission
 American marine officers !n Nicaragua tried to convince us that our mission was one of danger and
 
 eandino would rather kill an Amer ican or hold one for ransom. than listen to any peace overtures. They were afraid that if we went into the country where Sandino Twas operat- ing that we would be captured. killed or held for ransom and that it would then be necessary to send out a party of marines to assist us with consequent heavy loss of life. ,
