ACC0STS NE|GHBOR
 AND BITES LIP OFF
Southington Man Claims Victim
 Was Counting His Wife
Especial to the IIerald)

Southington, Dec 9.-Michael Ko- ley of AtWater street, Plantsville, was arraigned in the Southington police court this morning on a charge of assault on Michael Ro- bitski, a neighbor. of AtRater street, and his case was continued until Thursday morning. The charge of assault will, in all probability be changed to mayhem because the original bonds of $500 under which Nolcy was being held, were raised to $l,000 by Judge J. Lambert Dcgnan this morning.
 AS he was walking along Summer street yesterday, Koley offered Ro- bitski his hand and then embraced him. While thus engaged, Kolcy, it is alleged, bit off part of the lower lip of Robitski saying: Now you won't kiss my wife again" Robitski, in severe pain, picked up the dis membered lip and rolled it in his handkerchief.
 koley was arrested by Policeman Edward Geary and when questioned at police headquarters, he charged that Robitski had been courting his wife. Robitslli denied the allcga- ton.

WILLIAMSTOWN. Mass. August "a.
Scientific research, which he char
acterized as the fundamental industry
in the protection of a nation, is doing
more for the facilitation of trade regu-
lations and international goodwill than
any laws which can be devised Edward
r. Weidlein, director of the Mellon In
stitute of Research. Pittsburgh, Pa,
said today before members Of the In
stitute of Politics.
THE effort OF all countries to be-
come independent industrially Is back
Of scientific research" DR.. Weidlein
said. Ia is causing unrest in SIme
quarters because of apprehension OF the
results which competition may produce.
But there is no need to worry If we
keep our feet on the ground.
Discoveries for All.
"There Is no reason for one nation
to be apprehensive of the progress
research, because. scientists, through
literature and other means. are dis
tributing the information which they
have gained and cooperating in its
use. I have found 1t just as easy to
enter a European plant, the workings
Of which wanted to inspect, as to
enter one here. .
Selling, in which personality plays
30 large a part, is bringing about a
closer cooperation between industrial
lists and scientists Of different nations,
and thus closer cooperation between
the nations"
DR.. Harrison E. Howe, chemist Of
Washington, D. c.. and editor Of In.

THE predictions of the deadly use

Development MethodA
LONDON CR-Great Brita!M and
the United States are in full agreement
as to the Importance of civil aviation,
but in methods of developing their re-
spective commercial air fleets they have
agreed on practically nothing.
Sir Seton Brancker. director Of civil
aviation under the British air ministry,
called attention to this in speaking be-
fore the American Chamber of Com
merce here.
In Great Britain" he said. I'VE in
sisted on strict regulation of CONNER
cial flying from the very first; in Amer
lea your flyers did pretty much az they
pleased until the industry was well ad-
vanced.
Here we looked upon the government
subsidy as the only basis on which com :
mercial aviation could be developed:
you, on the other hand, have steadfastly
refused to have anything to do with
subs dies.
Here practically all the emphasis In
civil aviation has been placed on pas
senger carrying; In the United States
the transportation Of mail and express
came FIRST.
Here practically all Of our CONNER
cial air traffic has been confined to day
time flights: in America night flying
long has been common.
And yet. different as American and
British theories on civil aviation have
been all these years. glance at the
results achieved suggests that possibly
