MOTOR GO. WINS COURT DECISION
Verdict for Defendant in Accident Suit Upheld By
 Supreme Tribunal

A decision by the state supreme court of errors today upholds ver- dict for the defendant returned by jury in the local common pleas court in the companion suits of Mimi Altieri and Mildred Bumstead against Peattie Motors, Inc. The de- cision was written by Justice Allyn Brown, with the other members of the court concurring in the case.
 The two women brought suit here to recover for injuries sustained in an auto accident on the Cheshire road December 2l, 1884, when they were returning from a party at White House Tower. They were rid ing in a car operated by Leo s. Perry, and owned by the defendant company.
 The case hinged on whether or not Perry was acting within the scope of his employment as an auto salesman when he used the car for the trip to Cheshire on the night of the accident. The plaintiffs claimed that Perry knew that there were number of good prospects" at the inn, and that he, in fact, delivered sales talks in connection with the make of the car he was selling.
 The defense contended that Perry was not acting within the scope of his employment at the time, and held that the accident was caused by a car coming from the other direction and not, as claimed by the plaintiffs, by Perry's reckless opera ton of the machine.
 The appeal by the plaintiffs was brought on the grounds that Judge Miles McNiff had excluded import ant testimony, that he had erred in his charge and that he had ad- mitted improper testimony.
 Attorneys William B. Hennessey and John Greco appeared for the plaintiffs, and Attroneys Thomas Robinson and Daniel O'Neill for the auto firm.

 The hydrants will be installed as follows: Waterville street, east side, between Johnson street and Hillside avenue; Linden street, east side; Waterville street between No. 166 and Chapman street. It was also voted to replace the old hydrant at Prospect and Linden streets with one of the more modern type.
 Need WPA Aid
 Residents of Sherman avenue, who asked for Q water main in their street, were told that their chances are slim unless the WPA agrees to carry out the project. To satisfy the petitioners the city would have to install Q 2,300 foot main at a cost of $7,000. The annuaIvreturn from this investment would be only $50 as only five houses would be served in the 2,300 foot stretch.
 Superintendent Fleming was in- structed to investigate the complaint of Anthony Pesino of 1,2T8 North Main street that the sewer into which his property empties is clog ged up with sand. The superin- tendent was also given power to act on the request of the Connecticut Light and Power company for per- mission to open the pavement on South Main street in front of the Waterbury Buckle company so that a new gas line into the factory may be installed.
 Sewer Connections
 Superintendent Fleming informed the board that there is no use re- pairing the sidewalk in front of Richard Keefe's property on South Leonard street until the property owner connects with the storm sewer. There are springs under the sidewalk, he said.

impossible to ascertain he 81 exact
number until all of the six or seven
thousand sacks had been checked
out of the warehouse where they
were stored Mr.. Bettwy then sent
an officer for former alderman
Edmonson, to see if he could throw
any light on the subject.
After few moments the officer
returned and reported that Edmon-
son could not come "Tel him he S
got to come bring him, you're a po-
liceman amt you"?, stormed the
portly Mayor of Nogales. AS a re-
suit the office returned within a few
minutes accompanied by Edmonson.
EdmonSo2 it turned out, knew moth
ing more than the rest. The rob-
berry had been reported to him. but
he knew nothing as to how many
sacks had been solen. With that the
Mayor dismissed him and he re-
tired from the scene
Changing the subject. the Mayor
said, 1--WE are not getting very far
along with our original subject;
what are we going to do about the
lighting system?". Jameson very
carefully explained all over again,
the reason why the WV. PA. could
not guarantee the purchase of the
cable necessary to finish the street
lighting project. After short while
of general discussion during which
several Nogalians laid their COM
plants before Jameson, the Mayor
said Even 'ng's coming on and
want that cable.'
The group of some one hundred
citizens that had gathered to wit
ness the proceedings were very
much amused at the Mayors re-
luctance to let the subject drift
away from the street lighting pro-
ject.
Among those taking part IN the

having been sanctioned by the prop
er authorities.
The Mayor was Informed by
Jameson that the city Of Nogales
had been told on Nov. 30th that the
W.PA. could not guarantee the
purchase Of materials, consequently
he should not have diverted the $2,-
500 to the Civic Building. Bettwy
answered that he had never been
informed.
Jameson continued with his ex-
PLANTATION, stating that to give the
city Of Nogales the 5000 necessary
to buy the cable, he would have to
lay off one hundred men and that
he did not think that was the pro-
per solution. tt IL - '-''--
40 On W.P.A. Payrolls
He said that there were 40 per-
sons On W.P.A. rolls in Santa Cruz
county, and to give the city the S.
600 that they wanted it would mean
laying off approximately 100 Of those
men and that he couldn't do that
even to protect sponsors. Jameson
wound up his talk with the state
ment, "The W.P.A. will assist in ev-
cry way possible, but will not pro-
mise to purchase materials"
At this stage of the proceedings,
the Mayor brought up the subject
eff fifty tons of cement, alleged to
have been stolen while under W.P.A.
supervision and charged to the city
of Nogales. Mr.. Collie, local W.P.A
head, interrupted to say that it was
not fifty tons that were stolen but
fifty sacks.
Mr.. Bettwy asked his secretary to
look up the official record of the
council meeting at which the matter
had been discussed.
During the short interval, Bettwy
asked Jameson, "Will the W.P.A.
repair our streets n case of flood?'
"Don't be foolish, Mr.. Mayor" re-
torted Jameson.
Upon the return Of the secretary
with the record of the alleged ce-
ment robbery, it was found that SOC
sacks of cement had been stolen

speech, the Mayor attempted to pin
Jameson by asking him, IF we
prove our case, can we get results?"
Jameson Answers
Mr.. Jameson, refusing to COM
NIT himself so early in the meeting
answered with a brief outline OF
what the W.PA. had already done
in Nogales and what the city could
expect in the future.
He said that as early as November
SOth he had explained to a meeting
of the Municipal League, held in
Globe, at which Nogales was repre-
sented, that Federal funds in the
future could be expended for labor
and labor supervision only. The
WP.A. would furnish the necessary
labor, but that the sponsors would
have to furnish all materials.
He also stated that if $4,000 had
not been diverted from the street
lighting project to the Civic build
ing. the street lights would, in all
probability be terminated.
At this stage, the Mayor inter
rupted and stated that the W.P.A.
had agreed to furnish the cable, and
that it was found that there was
about $500 available from the
street lighting project which was
