BELV|DERE STORE
 EXCEPTION SOUGHT
Contractor Goes Before Board Of
 Adjustment Tonight

Louis kaplan, Hartford contrac- tor, who built a store several feet over the prescribed line at 1519 l Stanley street and who has not car rcd out an order of the building commission for removal of this part of the building, will go to the board of adjustment tonight to ask that the construction be allowed to re- main in it's present position.
 Several months ago, the question was before the Zoning board when an exception to sideyard require mcnts was asked to allow erection of q building larger than the one which could be built in conformity with the Zoning act. This request was denied by the board. After construction had begun under an amended plan, Inspector X. N. Rutherford found the south wall of the store several feet over the line. Work was immediately ordered stopped. After a hearing before the building commission, it was decided that work might go ahead on the north store with the understanding that the scrth wall would be re- moved and replaced When applica- ton wGs made for certificate of Oc- cupancy the commissioners learned the wall was still standing and re-
 fused to allow the building to be put
 in use. Appeal was then taken to | the board of adjustment.
 Tonights meeting will also con-
 sder the application of Arthur W. Swanson for Q permit to conduct q
 commercial flying field in the resi-
 dcntial district of Osgood avenue on
 a onc-ycar trial plan.

 A slim thread of a clue was given officers by MT. and Mrs. F. Munson, with whom Anderson boarded. They said he had expected to meet "a Swedish man" to whom he owed money Monday.
 Robbery could not have been a 1 motive for the crime, for S274S in cash and a check for S275l was found in Anderson's pockets.
