Forty Clubs Sending
 Delegates To State
 Conference Sunday
Associations to Protest Discriminating Ruling OfLiquOr Board -IIummel to Preside

Delegates representing clubs To- cated in various sections of Con- Iiecticut and whose combined membership .s estimated at over 60.000 will meet in Waterbury next Sunday afternoon to com plete plan of organization and to adopt a program of activities.
 The session will be held in the quarters of the Concordia Sing ing society on Bank street, with Attorney Albert Hummel of this city, officiating in the capacity of chairman. MT Hummel was elec- ted at the initial meeting held in Hartford two weeks ago.
 Protest to Governor
 The clubs plan a formal pro- test to Governor Wilbur l.. Cross relative to an interpretation made by the State Liquor Control board, and which has resulted in more than two score of organizations being deprived of their permits to sell beer to bonafide members. An appeal to the Superior Court is now pending on behalf of the Con cordia Singing Society and the Turn Verein of this city.
 Working Man Protests
 The new association, not iden- tified with the tavern owners movement, plans also to quizz both gubernatorial candidates and state representatives as to their attitude on future enforcement of present liquor law and to possible amend ements. It is argued that the present interpretation of the li- quor board discriminates against the working man" or the man who has but a modest weekly in- come and unable to buy member ship in exclusive organizations. The law insists that legitimate dining rom must be operated by the club to come within the scope of the law which sanctions a beer permit. As the clubs involved in the new association claim that

, they are social, musical, gymnas- tic and educational societies and charge but a nominal fee, they are | financially unable to conduct din- ing rooms as specified. It has al- so been claimed that in former years, before prohibition. these same organizations held permits and enjoyed privileges, which the board now intends to deprive them of under the new ruling. Amendment Asked The campaign for an amend nnent to the, law. if one is deemed necessary, will become statewide and pressure exerted for the elim- ination of the "discriminating clauses"
 Interview of the feeling aroused over the suspension of permits and the pending court hearing. the meeting Sunday promises to be- come of considerable importance.
 It is expected that forty differ ent organizations will send delega- tions to the session.

Political Gossip


 Politics, it is said. makes stra nge bed fellows. It might be added that it makes many enemies. The latest "phenomenon," however, is the announcement of State Gen. tral Committeeman William J. Brennan of Winsted to the ef. feet that the two arch- enemies. Governor Wilbur l.. Cross and former National Committeeman Thomas J. Spellacy of Hartford will take the speakers stand together at a rally in Sharon on October 4th to plead the cause of the democratic ticket. A coupe of weeks ago when Republican State Chairman J. Henry ROr- aback declared himself satis- fled to see his former political enemy. States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn, nominated for gOv- ernor on the z. O. D. ticket many party leaders gaspcd. Now the Cross-Spellacy com bination appearance has got them talking. The next chap- ter in the 'malxing-up series" is being awaited with interest. Mayor Frank Hayes, State Chairman J. Francis Smith and Major J. Joseph Smith, candidate for congress, all of this city, will speak at the gathering, also.
 Perhaps he will not be out fin time to vote in the coming election. Therefore Frank Shields. an inmate of New Hav- en county jail. cannot really be charged with trying to hurt High Sheriff James w. Ged- des, who is running for re- election. Nevertheless he has chosen an embarrassing time to complain to the New Haven board of health concerning conditions at the jail. He al- leges that prisoners are treated like animals, that no com. plaints are allowed to go tnFOuSn tlo uidAAo duu ludt lAC was locked up 23 hours a day with no facilities for washing for meals, that guards refused to let him wash. that the meals are cold and that the guards are unnecessarily cruel. The matter is being considered.
 Former Republican Town Chairman Joseph F. Morrissey of New Haven has come out with an emphatic denial that he is willing to withdraw from the race for the 2. o. D. con- gressional nomination in his district. It had been reported that he, former Public Works Director Michael D. .McGovern and J. Raymond McCuen. for 20 years executive secretary to former Congressman John Q. Tlls0n. would drop out of the race in favor of Robert J. Hodge of West Haven. McCuen and McGOvern have not an- swered the rumor but Norris

Former Alderman Fitzgerald of Bridgeport will run on the same ticket for the office of senator i'm the 2fst district. The independent citizens party ap- pears to be showing much ac- tivity in Bridgeport. but this is not surprising as the voters in the Park City have been jumping from one party to an- other quite actively during the past few years.

IL If you easily susceptible to one.
For this is the season when colds begin Boys and
girls return to school Persons who have lived a
And many of us will sit for hours exposed to the
elements at football games.
1t is such sudden changes in temperature, and
other conditions that may lower vitality and give
way to cold, although the exact Of the common
cold is not yet known Colds also are passed from
one person to another by coughing and sneezing.
Furthermore, a diet that contains insufficient
vitamins and mineral salts may lower vitality and
leave you susceptible to a cold. Chronic infections
in and throat and in the ears, may do So And
may interference with breating through improper
construction of the nose.
If YOU catch colds easily you should undergo an
examination as the special conditions existing in
your system which might be related to the manner
in which you catch cold.
THROUGH the experience Of many years, technics
i have been worked out for taking care Of the
ordinary cold although it is not certain that any Of
these technics actually will stop cold or cure it.
In the first place it seems TO be generally believed
that alkanizaton Of the body is desirable. This
may be accomplished by taking alkaline drinks, such
as orange juice and lemon juice in the form Of
orangeade and lemonade, which at the same time
supply plenty Of water to the body.
The taking Of plenty Of water is known to be use
full not only for flushing the intestines and the kid
neys but also for protecting the body against fever.
It is best not TO undertake that type of treatment
without medical advice
1t is usually considered desirable to have the in
testnal tract clean. This does not that strong
cathartics should be taken but any Of the usual
mild measures may be tried
1T is best to go to bed and to stay there until the
I cold disappears. While in bed you should keep
warm but not hot The danger in overheating the
body is the possibility Of chilling, with the onset
of another cold.
Because the lips and nose may be rrltated, lubri-
cation in the form of simple ointments may be APP
piled. Sometimes stimulation Of the circulation OF
the blood is attempted by placing the feet in hot
mustard baths and by rubbing rritants on the skim
The value of these measures is questionable, out
they seem to do little. If any, harm. There IS no
good evidence to establish the OF nose and throat
antiseptics
Once established, the cold runs mild course in
most cases Too much spraying Of the nose may
drive the infection into the ears. The same result
may follow too vigorous blowing Of the nose.

He succeeded to the presidency in
1898, when Colonel Lilly died. He
was joined in the business by his
two sons, Eli Lilly, now president
of the corporation, and j. K. Lilly
Jr., vice-president. The business
has grown steadily for the last
sixty years, maintaining through
out the policies established by the
founder.
The nucleus of a scientific staff
was formed in the early eighties
and around this the present or
ganization has grown. In 1911, the
company erected building de-
voted entirely to scientific re-
search, but as additions to the
staff were made it became neces-
sary to provide quarters in other
buildings and finally to erect the
new research laboratories recently
completed.
Operations of the company
now require the use of twenty
six buildings covering several city
blocks.

If the Democrats gain six mem
bers, as Postmaster General Far
ley predicts, they will control
sixty-six of the ninety-six seats
in the senate. The estimate may
even be revised upward before
Nov. 6.
Thirteen Republicans, four Pro-
gressive Republicans and one
Farmer-Labor members are up for
election this year.
In Maine, Senator Hale already
has been selected for an
other term and in California,
Senator Hiram w. Johnson has no
opposition. That leaves the Dem
ocrats with a chance to win in
sixteen out of eighteen possible
contests.
The chance is slim in such
states as Vermont, Connecticut,
Delaware, Michigan and Pennsyl-
vania. Most representations are
putting them into the Republican
column without question. That
leaves eleven doubtful contests,
four of which are complicated by
the fact that Democratic aspir-
ants are opposed by Progressive
and Farmer-Labor incumbents who
have supported all or part Of the
New Deal program.
