CITIZENS OPPOSE
ABATTO|R PERMIT
Bradbury Heights Associa.
ton Rescinds Former
Stand on Project.

Resembling its former action, the
Bradbury Heights Citizens Associa-
ton voted last night to oppose the
building of an abattoir on Benning
road. Several members signed a
petition which is being circulated
among the homeowners of Bradbury
Heights and which will be presented
at the hearing Tuesday in an effort
to prevent the abattoirS construction.
The association requested that
part Of Fort Dupont Park be set
aside as a recreation center for
Bradbury Heights, pointing out that
there is no satisfactory playground
for children.
Resolutions calling for the cor
struction, paving, or repairing of
number OF streets and alleys, and the
erection of highway rail guards at
dangerous points were also passed.
Remembering the two accidents
which have already occurred, and
scoring the way motorists speed along
Bowen road the association requested
the police department to station an
officer there, particularly from until
6. in an effort to prevent more
casualties.
After a member had said that the
fire-tighting equipment assigned to
Bradbury Heights is the Oldest in the
city and that the next nearest equip
ment had to come all the way across
the Eleventh street bridge, the asso-
citation declared the present set-up
entirely inadequate and moved to re-
quest modern equipment In Fire
House 19.
A resolution that the highway
engineer correct the street numbers
on Ridge road southeast was also
passed.
D. H. Thompson, $500 Bowen road
southeast, was elected secretary for
the remainder OF the year.

 He said the youth entered the at- tractive widows Camp Hill homo Monday night to await the return of Mrs. Carpenter and Mary Griffin from the beauty parlor which the older woman owned and the young- CT managed. He helped himself to cigars and liquor to relieve the tedium of waiting but first, the pro- secutor said, "cut the telephone wires" to make certain he would not be interrupted.
 Miss Griffin, who told police the slayer knocked her unconscious with Q blow on the head, was kept under police guard ct Chestnut Hill hos pital.

 Miss Griffin said the young man met them on their return and de- manded money. Then, she said, he forced them to go to an upstairs bedroom where he struck her while binding her to a bed. Before losing consciousness, Miss Griffin said, she heard shots and awoke later to see Mrs. Carpenter dead and her clothes ripped off. Examine Clothing
 The clothing of both women and articles from the bedroom were sent to Temple University for axamina- ton by pr. John A. Kolmer. medical school bio-chemist. Police meanwhile learned that Mrs. Carpenter. although she in. herited $25,000 from the estate of Her husband, Aaron E. Carpenter III oil company executive who died two years ago, was in need of money.
 She had borrowed $500 on her automobile and had sought loans from other sources, investigators said.

Smith AdUocates Educational
 Munition Orders For Factories

production are essential but they are only the first step.
 The War Department knows that successful quantity production, es- pecially in the early months, re- quires the adaptation of such plans to factory practice and a familiarity on the part of the men on the iob with the numerous processes which enter into the manufacture. Such experience can be gained by com- mercial concerns only by actual production of the material =
 Educational Orders
 Educational orders placed with firms that have already been allo- cated material to produce in em. mergency will serve the purpose of familiari2ing them with the details and difficulties of manufacture and VIII save months in an emergency. Such orders should be diversified as to critical types of material and should be placed with the greatest number of commercial plants pos- sible, in order that engineering or ganizations may study the munitions to be made and plan the necessary tools, jigs, fixtures and gages for their manufacture.
 "... We find that our program of industrial preparedness now en- ables us to acquaint the prospective manufacturer with drawings and specifications and production sched- ules pertaining to items that will be required of him but in most in- stances he is never given an oppor- unity to produce such items in time of peace. In short, the manu- facturer has Q paper knowledge but no practical experience pertaining to the munitions which the War Department is depending upon him to produce at Q specific rate. Here is where the educational orders fit into our scheme of industrial plan- ming for emergency production.
 ''Fpr, the reasons set forth, it is urgently recommended that favor- able consideration be given to the enactment of legislation such as contained in H. R. 6246 by Con- gressman smith,"

tools, jigs, fixtures and gages which are now lacking.
 Already Allocated
 Many Connecticut factories are understood to be among those which have already been allocated mater- ial to produce by the War Depart ment in the event of war. Such manufacturers have been urging this type of legislation for years, but no headway has been made since the war. The passage of Cong. Smiths bill would, in the opinion of the War Department and many manufacturers, constitute an important achievement.
 Gen. Craig's letter, addressed to Rep. Lister Hill of Alabama, chair. man of the house committee on military affairs, of which Cong, Smith is Q member, states, In part:
 "At Q recent meeting of ordnance district chiefs and their executives, the subject of educational orders was again emphasized as one of the most important things confronting the ordnance procurement districts In their dealings with industry with Q view toward obtaining early pro- duction of munitions In case of Q national emergency.
 Convert Plans
 "As our planning now stands, a responsible manufacturer who has had no experiences whatsoever in peace time in the production oi munitions may be called upon in time of emergency to convert his plants from their peace time pur. suits to the production of munitions non. commercial In character. Plans and specifications for the munl. tions to be produced, for the var ious tools needed to produce them and for the factory layout for theii

And More Gravy! Ex-Georgia Chain Gang M c m b CT Questioned Here by Police Tells
 of Experi-
 ence.

The State of Georgia may be abolishing its much-publicized chain gangs, but the food given Georgia prisoners is still hardly the best fare in the world, according to John Lawford, 19, of Bar Harbor, Me, who was arrested here last night on suspicion. Lawford was released to- day after questioning by police.
 He was arrested in Georgia, he told local policemen, and before being given an opportunity to enter 6 plea he was told by the judge: "Ten dollars or 30 days"
 He took the 30 days, he said, and was sent to work on 8 sugar cane plantation. The diet was not at all varied, he said, with the breakfast menu consisting of brown bread and gravy, dinner consisting of brown bread and gravy, and supper consisting of brown bread and gravy.
 After 30 days, Lawford said, 1t got a bit tiresome and he left Georgia. He told police that he was on his way back to Maine, where 1t might be colder but the food is better.
