Freda exclaimed. Nov my party

Later Arlene played while the
others sang. Her voice was a rich
contralto, so sweet that presently
when she sounded the first notes

out to listen to Arlene. Eve hoped
her friend had not chosen the song

cearly how admirably the varied
resources of our valley, in soil,
climate, topography, rainfall,
power, labor and other points,
adapt themselves to such demon
stration farms. Nowhere in
America is there a better place
for them. The value of the sum-
mer tourist population, both for
what it can suggest, and for
what it could learn, is apparent.
The visitors could spread the in
fluence of such institutions all
over America; while to the perm
anent population they would be
of enormous benefit.

Paris, Dec. 14.--(UP).-A new and important step in European political alignment necessitated by the disarmament crisis was ex- pected today with the arrival of Edouard Benes, Czechoslovakian foreign minister, to confer with Jo- seph Paul -Boncour, French foreign minister.
 Suspicious of Germany's am- bitions, uneasy over Great Britain's cautiously on-committal attitude on her views. France is beginning an effort to strengthen her friendly relations with Germany's eastern neighbors.
 Poland. Czechoslovakia, Rou- mania and Jugoslavia, ringing Ger many, Austra and Hungary on the northeast, east and southeast, have been closely courted by France. Now the French government is expected to seek solid diplomatic front as a counter move to a pos sible failure of efforts to solve the disarmament dispute arising from Cermany's demands that she be permitted to rearm unless other nations begin to disarm.
 The> eastern situation was made

Of the 169 towns in the state, 100 towns were represented.
 Similar county meetings will be- gin tomorrow for the tax collectors of the state, as well as for other local officials interested.
 The necessity for painstaking work in order that fair and equit- able treatment might be accorded to all taxpayers alike was empha- sized at the meetings. Time was devoted to explanation of new statutes relative to the powers and duties of assessors, and to discus sions of recent opinions of the su- Spreme court of errors on local tax subjects.
 Hartford County, with forty-nine officials present, had the largest attendance, eighteen of the twenty nine towns in the county being re- presented. New Haven County at- tendance totalled forty-eight, with nineteen of the twenty-seven towns represented.

 James Burns, a salesman, was standing beside MT Genlot and tes- tiled the same as MT Genlot. Pa trolman Dennis Carey said he as- sisted Patrolman Hayes in breaking up the crowd. He also testified that he did not see Patrolman Hayes raise the night stick once.
 Patrolman John Donahue said he met Mclaughlin the next day as the latter was entering the police station and that Mclaughlin told him of the incident the night be- fore. Officer Donahue sai dhe was acquainted with Mclaughlin for 25 years. He asked Mclaughlin why he was going to make the com- plaint, suggesting that maybe the whole affair could be straightened out by a conference with Patrolman Hayes. Mclaughlin said he did not care to make the complaint but that his foreman, a MT Clark, thought it the best thing to do.
 Dr Charles Audet was called to the stand to state that he treated Mclaughlin on two visits to his of flee. He said the injury was what is commonly known as black eye The skin was not broken Dr Audet said. His bill is $6.
 Patrolman Hayes took the stand in his own defense, stating he did not know, anything about the Me- Laugh1in incident until the next day when Patrolman Donahue called him to come down town.
 He said he talked with McLaugh lin, during the course of which he said he told Mclaughlin he did not see him that night and could- mt recall how the accident could have happened. He said McLaugh- lin wanted $100 to settled the case. Attorney J. Warren Upson of Bronson, Lewis and Bronson ap- peared for Mclaughlin. Corpora ton Councel Charles S. O'Connor and Assistant Corporation Counsel Timothy s. Sullivan appeared for Patrolman Hayes.
 Counsel were instructed to file briefs by next Tuesday. The case will probably be decided then.
