WnA L Barter, Correspondent-Phone Naugatuck S5.&

Paul Candy Company are hoping the maritime strike in San Fran cisco will be settled within a months time, for if 1t isn't the local plant will face a serious sit- uation and a shutdown might result.
 The reason is that at least six ships with consignments of COCOA nuts for the Peter Paul, Inc, arc tied up by the strike at San Fran cisco. The cocoanuts are inde- spensable in making some of the candy products of the Naugatuck firm. At present there Is a supply here sufficient to last for 30 days, but after that, just what will be done If no more cocoanut arrives Is not known. The foresight of the local company's officials is the rea- son why there has been enough cocoanut on hand to keep going so far. as when rumors of strike were heard, the local plant immediately bought a large advance supply ot cocoanuts and has not regretted this move, The Naugatuck plant is the largest user of cocoanuts in the world.
 Bakery Sale
 Pies, fruit cakes, salted peanuts and other foods will be sold at the bakery sale of the Methodist Epis- pal church to be held at Carlson's s Furniture Store, Church street, to. morrow. It will be an all-day sale.

England to the United States,

age operations on their plans
which was damaged in the forced
landing.
Reports reaching here from the
scene of the landing said they are
making rapid progress, with the
help Of northern fishermen, in
loosening the plane from the mud
for the long push to the beach
where overhaul operations will be
completed by mechanics under
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker. now en-
route to Musgrave Harbor by
chartered boat.
The reports emphasized that
there is no friction between the
two filters who underwent a trying
experience when engine trouble
developed while their plane was
nearing the northern coast.
Rickenbacker'S expedition left
here in a fast steamer late last
night and the American war ace
declared he hoped to reach Mus
grave Harbor some time around
noon, but local seafaring men con.
Sidered this unlikely in view of
rough seas.
Rickenbacker is carrying a new
propeller blade and other repair
parts for the Lady Peace, but
whether Richman and Merrill will
attempt to take off from the mar
row Musgrave Beach, or whether
they will dismantle their ship and
return to Harbor Grace aboard
the rescue boat remains q moot
question.
Rickenbacker was noncommital
last night when asked his plans
saying:
81 don't know what we'll do
about getting the boys out. III
have to look the situation over
first. The thing we're interested
in now is getting to them"

Option on Tract South

TO BUILD HATCHERY

The State Game and Fish Com
missioners have taken an option on
a tract of between seven and 10
acres along the Milford Road,
about two miles south of Dover,
across from Moore's Mill, on which
it is proposed to establish a hatch
cry for raising bass for restocking
purposes. Leonard X. Yerger,
president of the commission said:
An accurate survey of the ground
is now being made and if approx
ed. work on construction of the
hatchery, which will consist of a
succession of small ponds, will be
started Immediately. The commits
sioners were entertained at dinner
following the inspection of the
ground Members present were
Mr.. Yerger, Wilhert Raughley, and
G. Clifton Maui. Clarence S. Fos-
ter, state chief game warden, ac-
companied the commissioners on
the trip, and at the luncheon. The
Delaware Game and Fish Commits
sioners will be represented at the
Association of Middle Atlantic
States Fish and Game Commits
sioners Monday morning in Phila-
delphia. The association, which
was organized in Wilmington two
years ago, consists of commission
ers from the states of New York,
Connecticut, New Jersey, Penn
sylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Vir-
ginia and North Carolina. Recon-
mendations for taking ducks and
other migratory birds during the
coming season will be discussed.
The Delaware commissioners favor
an open season extending over a
period of 10 or IL weeks with three
consecutive days of shooting each
week rather than a straight season
of 80 days. This arrangement will
afford shooting for all species in
all parts of the state without dis
elimination, and reports received
relative to the number of ducks
with the possible increase during
the breeding season would indicate
such season should not injure
the supply. Mr.. Yerger said a
statewide canvass to check on
whether or not all dogs over four
months of age are licensed
