SEN. FLETCHER
SCOUTS FEARS
OF INITIATION

Denying that the nation is
heading for initiation, Senator
Duncan U. Fletcher CD of Flor
ida, chairman of the Senate Bank
ing Committee, today declared
that business gains rest on a
solid foundation.
The long-awaited "thaw" Of
commercial bank loans, which
will carry the nation toward pros
perity, has started, he said.
After a conference at the White
House, Senator Fletcher predicted
that the promised breathing
spell' will cover banking legisla-
ton. Congress next winter, he
said, will enact little or no
changes in present laws.
Although initiation predictions
have helped shoot up the New
York stock market, Fletcher as
serted that fears are unfounded.
He said:
"The banks are now lOaning
money on commercial paper,
which they would not do a
while back. That means better
business. OF course, we are not
going to have any bOOm-but
, business is gradually improving.
. There is no need of infla-
tiOn. If there should be need
for increasing the supply Of
money, banks have over two bill
lions in excess reserves. What
Is the use of talking about start
ing the printing presses? The
President has authority to issue
$4,000, 100000 in silver certifi-
Gates.
There is plenty Of money in
the country. The only thing
that probably is needed is money
for capital requirements. That
has not all been supplied"
, F1etcher's statement on infla-
tion and banking legislation was
accepted as an indication Of the
Administrators attitude on mon
etary legislation next winter, and
forecasts resistance to the central
bank plan of Father Charles
Coughlin, whose hackers are plan
ming a campaign when Congress
meets.

For Bad Cough,
Mix This Better
Remedy, at Home
Needs No Cooking |
Big SavinRl

Needs No CookingI Big SavingI 5
You'll be pleasantly surprised when
you make up this home mixture and
try it for a distressing cough. It's no
trouble to mix, and costs but a tri1e,
yet it can be depended upon to give
quick and lasting relief.
Make a syrup by stirring 2 cups OF
granulated sugar and one cup of water
for a few moments until dissolved. No
cooking needed. Get 215 ounces Of
Pinex from any druggist, put it into a
pint bottle, and fill up with your sugar
syrup. The pint thus made gives you
four times as much cough remedy for
your money, yet it is far more effective
than ready-made medicine. Keeps per-
fectly and tastes fine.
This home-mixed remedy has q re-
markable three-fold action. 1t soothes
the irritated membranes, loosens the
phlegm, and helps clear the air pas
sages. Thus it makes breathing easy,
and lets you get restful sleep.
Pinex is a compound of Norway
Pine, in concentrated form, famous for
its effect in stopping coughs quickly.
Money refunded if 1t doesn't please
you in every way.

 Phoenix Avenue Under Construction

from East Main street to Abbott avenue.
 Workmen were busy this morn ing tearing up the present brick pavement on Phoenix avenue. The cement base on the street will be retained and an asphalt surface will be laid, Superintendent Elem ing said.
 To-day, also, workmen were busy excavating on Wolcott street. New gas, electric and water connections will be installed first and then the entire surface of the street from the Sacred Heart church to the be- ginning of the new Wolcott high way to Bristol will be torn up.
 It is proposed on this street to lay heavy cement base and cover 1t with asphalt. There is no pave ment on Wolcott street at this time, asphalt oil having formed the pres ent surface. When completed there will be a continuous paved highway from Exchange place to Bristol via Wolcott. The new route cuts off the distance from Waterbury to Hart ford by several miles.
 Due to the construction activities in the vicinity of Abbott avenue the routes of the busses covering Cooke street, East Farm street and Walnut street extension have slightly changed.

3,l64 Applicants Formally Sworn in Up to Noon

The period for being sworn in closes at 9 o'clock this evening. Up to o'clock 121 new, electors had been sworn in today. This brought the total taking the oath to late to 3,164.

Health Board Will Lift Ban Thursday,
 It Is Now Believed
Restriction on Theater Attendance for l4.Year-Olds Also Will Be Dropped Peak Has Passed, Declares
 Health Oficer-OnIy FBofderline' Cases Now

7
 k Action on ordering the schools of the city; public, private and parochiai to open, will be taken Thursday afternoon at a meetineg of the board of health. Health Of ficer Dr. E. J. Godfrey stated early this afternoon that in his opinion the board will raise the ban on the schools at the session and also remove the restriction barring children under IA years of age from the local theaters. The opening of the schools and the ban on theater attendance was i'm posed by the health board due to the prevalence of infantile par alysis in the city.
 One new case of infantile par alysis was reported late yester- day. The latest victim is girl, four years of age. However, the number of active cases in the city continues to grow smaller. There were only 32 active cases in the city to-day. '
 Dr. Godfrey stated early this afternoon that the peak in the spread of the disease has been reached and passed in the coun- try as a whole. His opinion CO., incides with an opinion issued from the U. S. department of health at Washington, D. C., a couple of days ago.
 The health board, therefore, is expected to order the schools opened next Monday. This was the tentative date for opening fixed by the board when the ban was placed on.
 The latest victims of. the dis ease in Waterbury, Dr. Godfrey stated, are "tail-end" and Dor derline" cases. The threat of a widespread epidemic has passed, he stated. The health board will meet at 5:30 o'clock Thursday af- ternoon. Since July 10th, when the disease broke out here, 53 cases were reported, the oldest victim being girl of IS years of age. Five deaths have resulted period, one of the victims being g. Crosby high school student 16 years of age, a boy.

CLIENT JUSTIFIES
 COUNSEL'S FAITH
Accused Puts in Appear ance, Saves Bond; Man
 of His Word

By putting in an appearance in the common pleas court after his $100 bond had been called, Hubert Lewis, colored of this city to-day, substantiated a claim made by his counsel, Attorney Henry Weisman, that the accused was a man of his word. When Lewis case was called by Prosecuting Attorney William J. Larkin, there was no sign of the gentleman and the prosecutor sug- gested that the bond be called.
 MT. Weisman stepped up to the bench and announced to Judge Ed ward J. Finn that he was certain his client would appear. "I know he will be here because he promised he would" said the barrister, "be- cause when I took his case, he promised to- pay me weekly amounts for handling his case In fact he has not missed a $1 weekly payment in 28 weeks," smiled the attorney.
 The prosecutor however had his way and after the bond was called a recess was declared. When recess was over and court once more came into session, in came MT. Lewis, slightly bewildered. His bond was he pleaded guilty to charges of driving without license and was fined $50 and costs.
 Several other cases were disposed of by Judge Finn to-day. Joseph Naclerio pleaded guilty to charges of violation of the rules of the road and was fined $10 and costs. Peter Belletti of Naugatuck was fined $10 and costs on charges of assault arising from an altercation with one of his tenants in Naugatuck.
 Anthony Bauba's bond called when he failed to appear last week, was re-opened and the case contin- ued to January.
 Judge Finn remitted the costs in the case of William Duhnam, who was fined $50 and costs when he pleaded guilty to writing policy at his arraignment last week. A 30-
