V. F. w. Petitions
 To Be Cited In As
 Party Defendant
Legion Took Step Several Days Ago-Soldier Circles VitalIy Interested in Three Cornered Fight for MOney-Spirited Hearing Predicted

Ex-servicemen of the city are awaiting with keen interest the hear ing to be held in superior court shortly on the matter of dispoEing of the $5,000 war fund balance which has now been asked for by three separate parties. A petition was filed in superior court Saturday. noon at 12:30 o'clock by Wheeler oung post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, ask ing that 1t be cited in as party de- fendant in the action begun by Lew is S. Reed and Attorney William E.. Thoms against Warren B. Burrows, attorney general.
 Wheeler Young posts application follows on the heels of the action of Corporal Coyle post of the Amer ican Legion which petitioned to be citied in as party defendant several days ago.
 Attorney Thoms first asked the su- perior court for permission to turn over to the city's n.ployment fund, the balance in the name of MT Reed in the Citizens and Manu- lecturers National bank. This ball ance Is left from the United War Work campaign fund, raised here during the world war at the re- quest of President Wilson. A sum of $1O,0O0 was set aside by the com mittee in charge of the campaign here. this amount to care for ex- penses in raising the quota set for Waterbury. A little more than $3,00O was left when the quota was raised and this amount was left in the bank in MT Reeds name.
 MT Reed was appointed chairman of the mayors unemployment com mittee q couple of months ago. The committee was to raise funds to care for the unemployed and needy of the city. Attorney Thoms and MT Reed then asked the superior court for permission to turn over the fund left in the bank, to the city's unemployment committee. The fund had grown to more than $5.000 since.
 Judge John Rufus Booth denied the permission without prejudice, stating he had no Jurisdiction and also on the grounds that the attor- ney general of the state was not cited in as party defendant, as re- quired by statute. This step was taken by Attorney Thoms.

In his answer to Attorney Thoms' legal step, Attorney General Bur rows agreed to come in as party de- fendant, but added that Corporal Coyle post of Waterbury. which he understood was engaged il. relief work among the ex-servicemen of the city. should be given the fund, rather than the unemployment com mittee. The attorney general point ed out the purposes of the fund would be best carried out by giving the fund to the legion since the fund was originally raised during the war period for the benefit of the needy families of soldiers.
 Now comes the petition of Wheel er-Young post. Veterans of Foreign Wars asking that it be also named party defendant, in order that it might be heard before the fund is distributed. The petition states that Wheeler Young post Is also engaged in relief work among the needy ex- servicemen and their families in the city, whether the same are members of the post or not.
 It will provide an interesting hear ing when the case is heard in su- perior court. No date has yet been set but 1t is expected to be given an early hearing.

For Coughs
 From Colds Where One is Willing To Pay To Be Sure

Creomulsion is made to do the utmost for a cough from colds. It combines seven major helps in one-the best helps known to science. It is for quick relief, for safety, when the cough seems deep. Mild coughs may yield to a lesser help-to some single factor, maybe. But no one can tell which factor will do most for any certain cough. And all coughs should be stopped at once. So careful people, more and more, give Creomulsion for any cough that starts. The cost is $l25-a little more than some helps. But it means seven.way help-the best men know. And it costs you nothing if it fails to bring the quick relief you seek. Your druggist guarantees it.
