BUSINESS MEN TESTIFY

Blair & isrps!rib and Manager Noel
 Found Guilty Of Breach of Peace
 but Judgment Is Suspended After
 Lengthy Hearing. ..
 A finding of guilty with judgment suspended was made in police court today by Judge NJ. D. Saxe in the cases of Cyril Brodrib, Homer E. Blair and George D. Noel, who were charged with breach of the peace on seven counts. the allegation being that Messrs. Blair and Brodrib as owners and Noel as manager of the Blair & Brodrib store at 170 Main street disturbed the peace by allow ing music to be directed from a Victrola inside the store through a loud speaker above the entrance and into the street.
 First Of Kind in Court
 The case, being the first of its so far as is known, in any police court, attracted wide attention, and before Judge Sake made known his finding, Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Woods told him his decision would have a far reaching effect, for New Britain would be overrun with loud speakers if they were to be permit ted. and the city would be "in a state of anarchy" "The resentment will be violent. Your Honor," Mir. Woods concluded.
 Judge Sake said he was satisfied that the large number of business and professional men who testified that the noise emanating from the amplifier was disturbing and annoy- ing. were not prompted to do so by whimsical or fanciful' reasons. Everyone has right to ply his own trade but all rights are limited in that they must not interfere with the rights of others. he said, and he was
