 To Contrast Regimes

T am a candidate for mayor of the city Of New Britain; if elected will endeavor to give the city the form Of government enjoyed during the years l922-l92t when it was my privilege to be your mayor.
 It is my firm belief that the cx- pendjtures Of the city can be re- duced without lmpairlng the eff ciency of any department and 1t is my conviction that better service can be rendered the citizens of New Britain through reorganization of some branches of the government.
 T believe the voters have had ample opportunity to contrast the democratic and republican forms Of government in reviewing the events Of the past two years as against those of the four years which pre- ceded that period. I am willing to 20 before the electorate on a basis of that comparison.
 Should it be the wish of tue electors that ] return to the office of mayor, 1 will appreciate the vote of confidence given me and will exert my best efforts to show that the cinfidence is merited.
 My campaign will be clean one. and l shall expect my opponent to present his case in the same man. ner. l do not ask. nor do I expect support on party or political lines. Mine Is a canpalpp for efficient and economical government. based on experience.

GREAT ANXIETY FELT
 FOR PLANE IN BRITAIN

 Up We'll

London, March lo tRt-The gray Walter Hinchlitfe and the Honora blf Elsie Mackay was felt in England today, as the hours ticked steadily by without definite news of the nonoplane Endeavour.
 At 2 o'clock this aft, rnoon. when more than 53 hours had passed since the take off at Cranwell Tues day morning. it was figured that the Endeavours gasoline supply must have been exhausted for several hours and there was no hope that he plane was still in the air.
 The vague reports that arrived during the day Of planes landing or being sighted at various points wore hopefully seized upon by an anxious public but lack Of confirmation ot, each soon caused these heetins hopes to fade.
 The deepest anxiety. naturally. was felt in the London homes most intimately associated with the flight that of Lord Inchcape, father Of Miss Mackay. and that of Captain Iiinchliffe in purley.
 Mrs. Hlnchliife was said to be bearing up well under the strain but in contrast with her willingness to discuss her husbands flight yester- day. she denied herself today 10 visitors Harvey Lloyd. the 1iier's agent, met all inquirers at the door.
 She is trying to keep as cheerful as she can." he said. but naturally is becoming really anxious and also is very tired and weary as she had been waiting up all night for news"
 During the morning Captain Hjnchlitfe's two children, Joan, aged four who has long golden hair. and Pamela, aged three. were taken out by a nurse.
 In the absence Of Lord and Lady lnchcape in Egypt. watch at the Inchcape mansion was kept by the household staff.

Bartlett Declares He
 Stands on His Record

It has probably been the eNperl- once of many who have served in the common council that they have been urged by their friends to be a candidate for mayor. This has been my experience also. and since the time that ] have been referred to i'll the press as q possible candidate, many people have added their re- quests to those of my personal friends; so that after careful con- sideration, l have decided to an nounce my candidacy for the office of mayor Of the city of New Britain.
 Tn asking support of my candi- dacy from the voters, l stand squarely on my common council record for the past five years. This service has given III" a broad knowl- edge Of our municipal government. and as a member of many of the special committees in inc council I have come in close contact with all of the boards and commissions hay ing charge of the different branches of the city government.
 Should the republican party Sc  lect me as its candidate, and the voters of New Britain endorse that selection, ] promise to exert every effort of which I am capable in the service of New Britain to the end that we may have an economical. efficient and constructive business administration thoroughly adequate to the needs of a city of the world wide distinction of New Britain as an industrial center. l believe that there are many citizens of ability and integrity who are interested in the welfare of New Britain and I am confident that l can prevail upon such citizens to serve on its various boards and commissions.
 Tn prosecuting an active and vigorous campaign for this office. shall. and my friends and all asso- ciated with the effort must, pursue methods worthy of the reward of success from the voters of New Brit ain.
