some bread and butter for lunch.
They went to the store where
thev sold their butter and bought
half pound back for their lunch
and were charged IA cent.
That's the way the merchants
boost PlentywOod and that's why
they boycotte the farmers paper.

Vatican is sharpening. The Pope
is mObilizing his flock all over the
world and the Duce is using the
power of the state against the Vat
lean. Tho in practice the Vatican
has surrendered the claim to tenn
pOral power, in theory it never
has. The revolution in Spain is
the worst body blow the Pope has
received since the French govern
ment in 1905 expelled the religious
orders. The Mexican government
is again waging a war against the
domination of Rome. The Lithu-
anians kicked the Papal NUciO IN
TO Poland.
! Now the Pope says that Musso-
lini is a greater prosecutor of the
Church than either Mexico or Boil
shevik Russia. The Soviet Gov
eminent openly declares that re
/ ligion is the opium of the people
but permits the clergy to operate
provided they comb their dirty
boards and refrain from panhandl
ing citizens on the side walks
Russian youth carry on an educa
tional campaign against supersti
ton. Mussolini on the other han'
pretends to be- religious, but de
clares that he will not allow tn
Pope to interfere in politics. TIL
fact is that II Duce is as much a
atheist as he ever was. He wa
obliged to use the Pope's influenc

 do it in this case were 1t not for the
 fact that I feel that there is some- thing wrong somewhere.'
 In court yesterday morning Patrol man Edward Hayes claimed that
 Wright started a disturbance in 'The
 Coffee Pot" restaurant in North Square and acted as if he had a
 chip" on his shoulder. He is also alleged to have struck the policeman
 in the face. The latter countered
 by whacking Wright over the head
 with his nightstick. At the police
 box there was a struggle witnessed
 by many, notwithstanding the hour of the incident, 2 a. m.
 Wright denied that he was intoxi-
 cated or that he caused trouble in
 the restaurant by pushing chairs
 around or refusing to pay for the
 coffee served him. He stated that he did make 8 remark about not be-
 ing served very promptly and of jokingly suggesting to a friend that
 they move over to another side of the counter near where Officer
 Hayes was sitting. Service would
 pick up then" Wright said.
 Dr John Spignazy of St Mary's
 hospital another witness testified to-
 day that he attended Wright when first admitted to the hospital. At that particular time he didn't pay much attention to his condition, but later the accused returned in com , pany with his lawyer and asked to be examined. He appeared to be all right on the second visit.
 Four witnesses corroborated Off, cer Hayes testimony yesterday morning and the case was continued until to-day to permit the defense to summon witnesses. To-day an- other request for a postponement was asked by counsel for the defense to permit him time to summon three
 white men, wh osaw the trouble. Judge T. V. Meyer remarked that
 he was anxious to hear all the evil dence possible in the affair and granted the continuance.
 The case of Robert Zurzyk, 23, of 1S9 Orgnae street was continued one day. The young man was arrested at his home early this morning after chasing his wife out of the house. The court believing that a recon ciliation could be effected placed the case in the hands of Probation Off, cer Nicholas Combellack. The lat ter found Zurzyk abusive and turned
 him back to the police. The young
 man was locked up to cool off. Errico Marola, 29, of Torrington

Four counts of violating the pure food laws have been preferred against Vincent Lucreziano, 27, of 32 Colley street. Pending 8 report from the state chemist as to the ex- tent of alleged adulteration and misbranding of what was offered for sale as olive oil, the case was continued until Saturday morning without bonds.
 Lucreziano is the manager of the importing concern at 316 South Main street.

PATROLMAN STOOD
 IN THE SHADE
Suspended on Charge Oi Refusing to Obey Order
 of Superior Officer
HEARING TOMORROW


 Patrolman Eli Boulanger, a mem Der of the local police department since December 9th, 1911, was sus- pended from duty to-day and will face the commissioners of the board of police at their meeting to- morrow afternoon on formal charg- es. The officer is accused of re- fusing to obey the commands of his superior officer, Sergeant James Gibbons. Acting on the latter's complaint Superintendent of Police Joseph H. Mclean suspended Bou- langer and filed copy of the charges with Mayor Frank Hayes.
 The incident occurred in Ex- change place Sunday afternoon. The sergeant Is said to have found Off, ficer Boulanger parked in the cool shade of building, watching Sum day drivers fit by. Not because he was of the opinion that the police officer was missing his share of ''vitamins D. by not standing in the sun, but for better police super vision the sergeant ordered Patrol- man Boulanger to stand in the street so as to be seen by motorists. The presence of bluecoat in more ef- fective than any caution light or sign.
 Whether Patrolman Boulanger took the "adt" too serious that sunshine mellows," he failed to obey the sergeant. He not only ignored the command, so it is claimed, but attempted to engage his superior officer in a debate as to the relative advantages of being in the shade or in the sun.
 The sergeant compromised and placed the patrolman in the lime light by preferring charges against him.
 When Officer Boulanger finished his days work last evening he was questioned by the superintendent and ordered to remain off duty un- til the board of police commission CTS heard his case.
