THE WINDHAM COUNTY
 TEMPORARY HOME

g.ltnin the county, wherever possible, seems to be the happy solution. The reason why children should be placed in private homes within the county Is oovious. In many cases the parents of these children are good, honest, people. Through misfortune or other wise they have become too poor to care for then children properly. In other words their children have be- come dependent and even neglected and therefore proper subjects for commitment to the home, but that does not mean that motherly love has ceased to exist in the hearts of these mothers. To place these children with antilles at far distant points means depriving these mothers and fathers of an opportunity to see them occa- slonally as the expense would be pro hibitive. l am referring to deserving cases and it occurs Co me that any system that forcibly deprives a mother nom seeing her child. just because she is too poor at that time to care for it properly, appears to be cruel and unworthy of public charitable institution. 1 consider this q matter of great moment and submit it to you for serious consideration.

duty at the home. This is an added safety measure, not only against danger from fire. but also against any possible mischief being undertaken during the night by the children. On each door of the dormitories is in stalled a signal device which registers on dial whenever a door is opened. By means of this dial the night super visor at once aseertains the exact location of the door which has been opened and is able to proceed to as certain which might be going on.
 Attend Trade School
 appear to have the inclination and ability to carry on have been per mitteed to attend the state trade school and the high school. Surely an unusual advantage for these child ren and an example of our solieitude to do all In our power for the child ren.
 "The funds necessary to carry on this work at the home, along with other county activities, are derived from a tax imposed upon the towns ln this county and from a portion of the tax on unincorporated business, which portion is annually determined and paid over by the state treasurer. Thus 1t will be seen that it is the tax payers who maintain this worthy pro jeet. No matter the name of the agency that carries out the work, the money must be derived from taxation in one form or another. and taxation means that it comes from you and me and the rest of our people.
 'The home is placed under the di- rect supc iision and management of q superintendent and matron who are appointed by the board of manage ment. It is clear then, that the pro- per management and care of the children must depend largely upon the tact and ability of the superin- tendent and matron. For this reason, the board always uses great care in choosing them. We have been for tunate in this respect in that We had in the person of Mrs. Park, a remark able person for this post During his late lifetime. Mir Park acted as super intendent for seven years and after his death Mrs. Park carried on as matron for nine years longer, making her period of service sixteen years. Mrs. Park was particularly beloved of the children, who affectionately called her Mother Park
 New Supervisors
 ''The board recently appointed Mir. and Mrs. Provendie as the new super i intendent and matron of the home. Mir. Proyendie assumed his duties on April 1st and Mrs. Provendie assum- ed her duties today. Both came highly recommended and both seem eminently qualified for the positions. We place our trust in them and have confidence in their ability to make i their administration a success. They are of course held strictly account able to the board for the activities at the home. They have such adult as- sistanee as is necessary.
 We now have 109 children at the i home. We do not insist that all is i perfect in every minute particular but it is and has been our constant aim to provide the children with safe, clean and comfortable quarters wholesome food. adequate clothing proper and adequate educational and reereational facilities and above al understanding and sympathetic, yei firm supervision.

DETROIT, June 13.-Although there
have been some indications that retail
distribution of motor cars has been
stimulated by recent price reductions
and the introduction of new models in
the medium price class, the automobile
industry seemingly still is moving in
second speed. May production, geared
to demand. totaled 433,328 units, per
cent less than the total output for April,
but still maintaining the 00.000-a-
week production regarded as the prob
able peak for the current year.
If the industry could maintain dur
ing the remainder of the year the
rate of production shown in the first
five months the total for the IL months
would be slightly in excess of 100000
units, which would be considered a
very good showing in the face of a
general business depression. Automotive
executives. however, are not deluding
themselves with false hopes, and a
1000, 000-unit production for 1880 is
regarded as a mirage that only an
entirely unexpected reversal of condi-
tons could convert into substantial
reality.
Having adjusted output to a carefully
appraised prospective demand the auto
mobile industry may truthfully be said
to have adopted policy of keeping
on the alert but determined to be

AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY MOVES
IN SECOND SPEED DURING MAY

around the Christmas holidays. In
some plants, it is understood, plans
have been made to close for two weeks
during July for the double purpose Of
concentrating vacations and inventory
taking in that fortnight period.
Even the Ford Motor Co., which has
had nearly two-thirds of the total bust
ness done by the automobile industry so
far this year, Is understood to be plan
ming a vacation period for certain de-
partments during the latter part OF July.
Regardless of what reason may be as
signed for the suspensions, plans being
made for them may be taken as an
indication that industry does not look
for an immediate sharp increase In
consumer demand.
Early in the year when the automobile
industry was burdened with large
carry-over of last years production,
it was generally believed few new
models would be brought out before the
national automobile shows of next jan
uary. Plans we're changed, however,
and the last few weeks have seen sew
eral new models or announcement OF
prospective alterations shortly, Others
are known to be in contemplation. AT
least five of the leading producers WILL
have new cars out this Summer. THESE
will include several new eight cylinder
types and one of the Oldest manutac-
turers that for many years confined
production to the higher price class Is
understood to be working on a new
front-drive model.
While there may have been a marked
falling off in retail distribution during
the first quarter of 1880 as compared
with last year, there has been no de-
cline in the use of the motor car, II
gasoline consumption may be taken as
an accurate gauge.

CORN PRODUCTS PLANT
is PLANNED IN VIRGINIA

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va, June 13.-Report-
ing that he is considering the estab-
lishment of a 100000 corn products
plant in Virginia and that he is pre-
pared to finance the enterprise, Ste
phen j. Adams of Washington, D. C.,
president and managing director OF the
Agricultural Associations Travel Club,
Inc, in cooperation with the Holland
American Line, has obtained data from
the Virginia State department Of agri-
culture on centers of corn production
in Virginia, it has been learned here.
Mr.. Adams, who said he is an indus
trial engineer and a native of Hungary,
said that he desires to install plant,
or a group of plants, with new process
for utilizing corn for feed, sugar, Sirup
and paper products.
He first went to Gov. John Garland
Pollard and after conference with the
States chief executive went to see
George w. Koiner, commissioner of
agriculture. Mr.. Koiner gave him sta
tistics of corn production and offered
him all the information facilities of
the department.
THE plan is. as I understand it, to
establish a central factory, with
radiating group of smaller units. The
plant would use the entire crop, grain,
stalk and all" Mr.. Koiner said.

after a period Of relative inactivity
and declining tendencies in stock prices,
such as we have witnessed during the
last several weeks" Mr.. Wright says.
investors always are most anxious re-
garding the ultimate course of the
stock market. If one searches long
enough. some opinion can be found
that q great bear market is in the max
ing. More opinions are available TO
the effect that, although the future
course of prices may be upward, there
is a readjustment period still ahead
which calls for extreme caution and
the withholding of funds, in a large
part. for anticipated lower levels
THE preponderance OF opinion now
ever. as we'll as a careful weighing of
the various opinions, according to past
records for accuracy as measured by
our Weighted Average, holds that bull
market is in the making and that the
nresent is a period of accumulation-a
time which is always very trying Tor
impatient investors. Nevertheless, one
does not appear justified in expecting
broad upward movement in the i'm
mediate future.
ANY strengthening in commodity
prices should signal an important i'm
provement in business" states Mr..
Wright, who goes on to say that, after
it is apparent that the bottom in COM
modify prices has been reached, they
will start an upward climb, bringing a
feeling of hopefulness and ACTIVITY,
BUYERS will not buy on a declining
market except for immediate demands,
but they will purchase literally on a

speculative chance of making more
than a normal margin of profit"
