CORN BORER X IS HELD IN CHECK Survey of Selected Towns
 in Connecticut Shows Slight Decrease BIG CLEANUP HELPED

New Haven, Nov 22.--A survey of selected Connecticut towns shows that the number of Euro- pean corn tborers to the acre this summer was generally smaller than last year within these towns. The borer infested more cornstalks this year, but the number of borers within each plant was smaller.
 The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station in making the study chose towns where the borer has long been established, most of which were in New London county, and also Orange, Woodbridge, and Milford, which are important for their seed corn industry.
 The number of borers to the acre was considerably reduced this year in Groton, Montville, and Stoning- ton,r while there was a large in- crease in Orange and Waterford. Glastonbury and Wethersfield averaged 5 and borers to each infested cornstalk. X 7 Vigorous clean-lfp measures ap- piled to cornfields last spring were important in cutting the number of borers to the acre.
 Federal quarantine on account of the corn borer has been lifted because of lack of funds. but many corn-growing states have made their own regulations against ship ments from infested regions.

MT Leary in commenting on the trip today stated that the calls of the wild animals prowling around <. their camp during the night time pro- vided Mir Crary with a few uneasy moments, during the first days of the trip. He soon got over it, Mir Leary explained and was soon able to distinguish between a moose and a bob cat. .4

A collison early this morning near the intersection of East. Farm and Violet streets was investigated by the police and resulted in the arrest of one of the, operators, Mi- chael Zohka, 19. of Beacon Falls on the charge of driving without q license. Fred Gaudiosi, 22. of Lakewood road was the driver of the other car involved.
 The police did not attempt to adjust the responsibility for the crash. which terminated in both cars being damaged. The two drivers will be obliged to settle that little matter in the civil courts. When questioned by Pa trolman Joseph Petit of the motor patrol Zohka was unable to pro duce his license and is being held for a hearing tomorrow morning.
 Joseph Tucker, 40, of 602 Wash ington avenue, is charged with operating motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor. His case was continued also for one day.

 These things, fuel, food and clothing are very essential and fam files short of either will not have very enjoyable Thanksgiving day. After all, people apparently in great need, do not nede much to turn a cheerless home into one of sunshine and good cheer.

HIJLSE ASSERTS
CHARTER NEED
HERE IS GREAT

Imperial county will never get
any real reduction in taxes until it
has charter form of government,
or until a legislative act gives the
county board of supervisors much
greater executive power, Ben Hulse
this morning told members of the
Ell Centro Junior Chamber of Com
merce.
Hulse, one of Is freeholders who
will be elected to draw up a pro-
posed county charter, spoke on the
charter from practical mans
standpoint, telling of some changes
which might be effected in various
county offices, and which would re-
suit in saving to the taxpayers.
1t was Hulse's plea that his lis
teners, before deciding whether to
vote for or against the charter,
wait until it is drawn and then
give it careful consideration.
Asserting that the board of super
visors at present is merely a legis-
latiVe body, having no control over
offices at the court house and that
charter will place responsibility
for expenditures squarely on the
shoulders of the supervisors, making
them ansWerable to the people.
Touching briefly on consolidation
with the Imperial Irrigation dis
trict, Hulse said this could be done
only by an act of the legislature.
The speaker was introduced by
Louis B. McManus, chairman.
c. G. jenkins, postmaster, spoke
briefly on the air mail, the first
flight of which will come through
Ell Centre at 5:57 in the morning
of June Is, week from today. The
second flight, eastbound, will be
at $50 in the evening, he said.
Following the poStmaster's talk,
members of the organization voted
to attend in a body, the arrival of
the first air mail plane at the I'M
perial county airport next Wednes-
day morning.
