A movement to have every Lith- uanian resident of the city made a voter was instigated by the Lith- uanian Political board at recent meeting. A committee has been ap- pointed by the Lithuanian Citizens Political Club who are checking the voting lists in an effort to ascertain who have been made. This commit tee consists of Chairman Charles Popikas, Bronis SaridinskaS and William Shukaitis. The l.. l. P. club will appoint similar committee at its next regular meeting.
 Members of the committee now active have stated 1t is the intention of the clubs involved to assist the non citizens in securing their first papers as soon aS possible and those holding their initial documents will be advised and aided in gaining their second in order that they may become voters. The movement will be extended over a period of several years to bring about the required success.
 It was emphatically stressed that this movement is entirely non-par- tisan and voters made will be en- titled to their privilege of support ing whatever party they may select.
 Leaders said since the members of the Lithuanian race who are not citizens at this time are required to pay their old age pension and per- sonal taxes. they may as well be- come full-fiedged citizens and voters.

 Fear Japanese Threat
 MoreThan Germany's
No Appreciabe Evidence Here as Yet of Serious COn- petition in Manufacture of Christmas Toys, Novel;
 ties-Germany Plans Far-FIung Invasion in U. S.

Despite the fact that toy imports from Germany increased $102,000 in the United States last year over the 1884 total, local industrial plants involved in this type of manu- featuring have not felt the effects of the jump. Financial reports show, however, that Germany is gradually recapturing some of the toy market in the United States that 1t relinquished several years ago.
 The Waterbury Button company and the Mattatuck Manufacturing company are the two plants turn ing out the main amount of toys in Waterbury. Officials of both concerns stated this morning that they were not feeling the German re-invasion, as yet. Japanese com petition, however, is serving to keep down local toy manufacturing ac- tivities, 1t was admitted.
 Japanese Lead
 According to the national survey, Japan continues to dominate in toy imports in the United States but figures indicate that some of the market is beginning to slip. In 1884 total of $386,0O worth of toys were imported from Germany. In 1885 the imported toys from Ger many were valued at $488,000. In 1884 total of $1,988000 worth of toys were imported from Japan as against $1,979,000 for 1884.
 The local toy manufacturing sea- son for 1886 has not yet opened. When competition for 1886 begins to show itself the standing of the United States, Japanese and Ger man competitors for the current year will assert itself. Department of Commerce officials are coperat- ing itself Department of Com merce officials are cooperating with local manufacturers, 1t was stated today, checking the growth or de- crease in competition between Am erican and foreign firms.
