.CH|CAG0AN VISITS
 ANCESTRAL SHRINE
Parents Romance Started al
 New Britain Normal School

Scorn Of bankruptcy, romance, expulsion by the Ku kIux Klan. authorship, and vanderlust com prise the heritage left 10 Horatio A, Warren of Chicago. III, who re- turned 10 New Britain after 30 years absence and spent today wis ting scenes made sacred to him by his ancestors.
 Mr. Warren's grandfather, Alan son Warren, mechanic Of Fall River. Mass. came 10 New Britain when it was first entering on its career as a leading manufacturing city. He bought a farm in the vii cinity Of what is now Walnut Hill park and later entered business. For q time he prospered but dur ing the panic Of 1857 he shared with his fellow tounsmen financial revcrses
 Many Of them took advantage of the bankrupt law" said the C,i- cagoan. but my grandfather sold almost everything he possessed and paid every penny he owed IL is be- cause Of that splendid spirit that I regard his old home as almost a sacred shrine. That viewpoint, cost ing him what it did, now means much more 10 us than the fortune he might otherwise have accumu- lated"
 The visitor identified the employ ment office of Russell & Erwin al Myrtle and Washington streets as the house in which his grandfather lived and in which his father. Nor timer Warren. was born.
 Met At Normal School
 My father was graduated from the old normal school here in 1852" " he said, and it was there that he met his classmate, Miss Elizabeth J. Goodwin of Collinsville. Romance entered their lives and after teach ing several years they were married They then went to South Carolina where they both taught the newly ! freed Negro slaves until they were driven out in 1876 by the Ku Klux klan. The school was then taken over by some Southern gentleman and my parents went to New Or leans where I was born.
 "I can remember coming here tc 1 visit relatives when New Britain wal q city of 1000 inhabitants. At that | time the town and all rural Connec. ticut had a shabby appearance. was pleasantly surprised on my re. turn on this trip to see that thi' : condition has changed and tha there is now ample evidence of { spirit Of progress.

THE ONE FARE VICTORY

F J. Bennett, of New Hayan. as ssstant general manager Of the Con- nacucut Company made serera! good points in his reply 10 the letter O Pardon c. RicEey president Of the Chamter of Commerce. in reIa- ion 70 tha fare to he charged for transportation to the municipal golf -oursa
 The experience Of the company. remarked Mir Bennett has been that in such cities having municipal gol. courses most Of the golf players go 10 the course in thoIr prtvate auto mobiles, and then at the close Of play usually take home 3 goodiy pro- portion of those who came IT pub lie conveyances Many. too. make up golf parties and take those who don't happen 10 have cars ot theIr own handy, Mir. Bennett therefore doubts whether the Connecticut company could expect to get much additional riding on account of the local golf links. However. in case there are some folks who cannot get there in their own cars or in the cars Of friends, they can make the trip nearly to the links in the Hartford buses, which run every hour and upon payment of only one fare. as the C. of C, had requested,
 Mir. Bennett incidentally alluded 10 aplenty of that which ais the public transportation systems, a-d not on account Of temportry set back in business, but because it is a general trend which has extended over many years Gross receipts IT New Britain, he adds, have steadily { decreased for years, and this year are worse than ever AS a result . some trolley lines have been aban- doned altogether and other routes have been placed upon q species oi part-time basis. being operated only during the so-called rush hours-it there are any such in the trolley ' 1,reirecc ,,ou-a days

IT MAY NOT BE so BAD

Mayor Qulgley. making com mandabla efforts 10 he well prepared n case the city is faced with a more serious social problem the coming winter than at present, has set the mark Of S1go,0o0 as a necessary sum 10 have on hand for relief purposes. and has called in all social workers and city department officials 10 agree on methods Of procedure.
 The assumption that the winter may be exceptionally bad from a so- clal welfare standpoint may not turn out altogether that way. Unless every government department, the Federal Reserve Bank, big business executives and numerous financial writers are deliberately pollyannying the public, the corner in the depres- e.on is being turned and the situa- ton will begin to improve appre- ciahly at.er Labor Day,
 All Of which seems logical ln vie" of the well established fact thai while production has been under normal for months, consumption while also under normal, has no' been as far below par as production .
