Princess Haidar
 of Damascus
Talked on Condition in Syria at Second Church
 Forum

Princess Rahme Haidar of Damascus spoke last night at the Second church forum and also pre- sented one act of her Biblican drama, "The Healing of Naaman. the Leper." She was assisted in the presentation of the drama by her co-worker, Miss Lucille Bur gess. Princess Haidar said that time means nothing in Syria and that this is why it's people are still nearly unchanged from ancient times. She described the habits of Syria and pointed out that the Syrians, unlike Occidentals, espe- cially Americans, are not hurrying to sleep, eat or accomplish any, thing.
 Syria has it's high type of persons and it's beggars, just like other na- tions of the world. The visitor in Syria usually comes into contact with the beggar and forms his opinion of the country according ly, she explained. She described the country as one of varied eli mates, the lowlands being continu- ally hot while the climate grows cooler as one goes inland. In the mountains 1t is cold. she explained, and the extreme cold from the ex- treme heat is only little more than an hours travel. @
 The speaker described the coun- try surrounding Jerusalem, Tyre, Sidon and other places of note in the Bible and said they have changed but little since the days of the early Christian church. To- night at Davenport hall Gems of the East" the princess own motion picture, will be shown.

McLevy Here
 Tomorrow Nigh
Socialist Candidate for Governor Addresses Rally i
 WOflmen's Hall

Jasper McLevy, socialist candi- date for governor will address a socialist rally to be held at Work mans Circle hall, Spencer avenue tomorrow night.
 MT McLevy. who is national exe- cutive committeeman of his party from Connecticut, was his party's candidate for mayor of Bridgeport last fall. In a sensational cam paign, the socialist party, led by McLevy became the second party in Bridgeport by leading the re- publican candidates by almost 5000 votes and were successful in electing a socialist alderman and some candidates for minor offices. All indications are that the social ist campaign in Bridgeport will surpass last year in results and that the next board of alderman will include a number of socialists.
 MT McLevy served for a number of years as international president of the Slate and Tile Roofer's Union. In addition to having held nearly every office in his own union and in the Central Labor Union of Bridgeport. McLevy has also served as first vice-president of the Con- necticut Federation of Labor.

ID. A. V. Tells How Money
 Is Expended

The Forget-Me-Not day drive is to be conducted by the local chap ter, Disabled American Veterans of the World War, in this city. Plans are proceeding very satis- factorily, according to Commander Martone of the local chapter.
 In a spirit of fair play, the D. A. V. is anxious that the public shall know just what the local chapter proposes to do with the funds raised on this drive, and MT Mar tone, has explained this as fol- lows:
 "Our chapter is one of $50 other local chapters. Every disabled man. and every local unit of our outfit is interested in looking out for the welfare of those World War veterans who were disabled by reason of their World War serv- ice. We must, therefore, maintain a national rehabilitation service. in order to make sure that laws, previously enacted, will be prop erly interpreted and properly ap- piled in the cases of individual claimants. Moreover, 1t is neces- sary to maintain full-time re- mobilization officer to assist thou sands of individual men in the prosecution of their claims for compensation. He is a special ad- vocate, or attorney in fact, on be- half of these men. He has assist ed many men in this particular community. During the past year, he handled the claims of many men, and secured benefits for them.
 To maintain this national and slate rehabilitation service, our local chapters must cooperate with each other, and, therefore. 30 % of the net proceeds of our drive will be sent to our national headquarters, and 208o to our de- partment headquarters, and the remaining 50G6 will be used by the local chapter to take care of its own service and emergency re- lief program.
 we feel that the money which we send out of this town to main- tain these services, is brought back to this community through increas- ed benefits to disabled men many times over. No other charitable investment has, in the past. or will. in the future, bring such huge dividend returns. We feel that this service is deserving of the sup port of the general public. and that indirectly this community is great ly benefited"
 When you buy forget-me-not you will be helping the D. A. V. to help others who are less for tunate, and indirectly will be help ing this community.

Earl Bolger Shown Mercy By Judge Bridgeport Driver Has Case Continued Until Saturday -Inebirate Autoist Taxed $25

Reckless drivers, hit-and-run drivers and alleged intoxicated drfvers provided the bulk of busi- ness in police court today. Pending the recovery of victims of accidents over the weekend some of the cases were continued.
 Earl Bolger, 19, of 26 Meriden road was fined $10 and costs for operating without a license and $50 and costs on the charge of reckless driving. A few evenings ago in the town court of Wolcott the young man was fined $10 and costs for taking the automobile of Dr Joseph E. Slavin without his permission.
 The youngster admitted that he had no license, but had friend with him named Vincent Lerz, who is qualified driver. No charge was made against Lerz, who was seated with Bolger at the time the latter, driving pr Slavin's car, crashed into a. new Buick owned and driven by Edward Kinniery of 45 Wildwood avenue. Mrs Kim niery suffered a number of lacera- tions and is still under the care of her doctor.
 Bolger claimed that the lights of Kinniery's car blinded him. Judge John F. McGrath replied that 1t wasn't a question of lights, for the young man had no business to be operating an automobile without a license. As MT Kinniery informed the court that he did not wish to be vindictive in the case Judge Me- Gratl1 remitted $40 of the $50 fine. which is the minimum the law de- mands in such cases.
 The case of Richard Heaney. 53. of 106 Palm street, Bridgeport was continued until Saturday morning. He is charged with evasion of re- sponsibility. He was brought back to Waterbury from Torrington. where he was arrested early last evening shortly after his car is al- legged to have collided with two youngsters riding bicycles. The youngsters, John Sulish, IS, of Jo- seph street. F'orestville, and Wall ter Escf1ner, 19, of 57 Sylvester street, Forestville. suffered painful decorations about the head and were taken to the Waterbury hos pital for treatment.
 Witnesses to the accident noti- fled the local police and descrip- tion of the car was sent to Patrol man James Ryan of the Thomaston police. He re1ayed it to Torring- ton. Heaney was stopped while
