 Meeting-Local Woman Sued for
 Damages-Easemen is Granted. A worker in the communist party visited Plainville yesterday after noon and made canvass of the stores to secure funds to be used in the defense of communist agitators recently arrested in the state. He met with little success from the merchants who were not in sym pathy with the policies of his party.
 Although communists have ap- peared in many other cities in the state, this is the first time that Plainville has had any dealings with the radical party. The worker here l yesterday had no permission from | the police to make the canvass, it ! is said.
 In visiting the stores, the com munists presents a paper showing the purpose of his solicitation for | funds. The paper contained a large list of names which the worker in tended to visit. Although no trou- ble was experienced with the men, one merchant reported that the communist berated him in no uncer- tain terms when he refused to make a donation. It is expected that the workers lack of success here yes terday will discourage the commun- ists from bothering Plainville mer- chants or residents anymore.
