 $96,607 JUDGMENT
Foreclosure on Bridgeport Fac tory Granted in Superior Court

Judgment to the amount of S96,- 6O7.17 was granted the Stanley Works of New Britain in superior court at Bridgeport yesterday by Judge Christopher L. Avery in a foreclosure suit against the Con- mercial Aircraft Corp, of America.
 The suit was the result of the purchase and resale of land and buildings owned by a bit brace manufacturing concern in Bridge port several years ago. The bit brace Works of New Britain insuperor business was sold to the Stanley Rule and Level Co.,. prior to it's becoming part of the Stanley Works. The factory and buildings then were sold to the Bell Tone -Ifg. Co.,, which on March o7, 1926. owed the Stanley Works $95,000 on d promis- sorry note.
 In the meantime the name of the Bridgeport concern has been chang ed to the Aircraft Corp. of America, although is attempt to make and market airplanes is said to have been unsuccessful.
 Failure to pay on a note brought action by the local company. which again holds title to land and build ings, for which it has no use. Even- tually the Bridgeport plant will be sold again, the local company hav- ing no intention of operating it.
