|OLD M|DDLEBURY CASE IS DECIDED
State Supreme Court Rules Against Compensation in
 Suit on Farm Work

A farmer who employs extra labor at some seasons of the year does not come under the state com- pensation act Such is the gist of a decision written today by Chief Justice William M. Maltbie of the Connecticut Supreme Court.
 The case, that of George France, of Middlebury, against William D. Munson, of Middlebury, has been pending since October, 1885. In these years it has been through the com pensation court, the superior court, and, once before, was in the supreme court.
 Was Extra Helper
 France was employed as an extra helper by Munson and, in the course of his work, injured the little finger of his right hand, causing an in- lection which resulted in loss of the finger, 75 per cent disability of the right arm. Compensation Commis- sioner James M. Lynch awarded France 5000 after hearings at which France was represented by Attorney Michael V. Blansfield and Harry M. Albert.
 In behalf of Munson, and con- tending that the Middlebury em- ployer did not regularly employ more than four persons, Attorney! Charles R. Sunma, Frank, J. Slrf1ms and John H. Cassidy appealed tht case to the superior court. Judge Inglis ReverseS Judge Ernest A. Inglis reversed the decision of the compensation commissioner and the case went to the supreme court with the plain tiff's attorneys seeking ruling on procedure. Attorneys Summa and Cassidy had the case ruled out of the high court by plea in abate- ment. That was in 1887.
 After numerous motions had been heard in the superior court through the subsequent months, the case finally was returned to the supreme court at the October term this year
 In hearings before Chief Justice Maltbie the supreme court consid- cred the possibility that all farmers in Connecticut and employers of labor not regularly engaged in business would be affected by the decision in the Munson-France matter.

 Referendum for Same Objective

Simultaneously with an announce ment by the managers of the Citi- zenS Good Government association that a budget of $15,000 has been approved to seek establishment of a city manager form of government in Waterbury, Republican Town Chairman J.

 The local Republican organization "favors the referendum" and will give it's support to the proposal that the General Assembly provide for a special election next spring to determine the matter. But the Re- publicans of Waterbury twill take no part in any partisan action for or against the proposal in the event of such a special election, the town chairman averred in his state ment.
 Chairman Upson Talks
 In this connection, Chairman UpSon remarks:
 "In consideration of the form of government for this city, no at tention should be given a partisan advantage. Each voter should pass upon the advisability of the propos- ed city manager form of charter without any party prejudices enter ing into the decision"
 The Good Government Associa- tion's board of managers met last night with Chairman Bennett Bron- son of the budget committee out lining the financial program for the plan to attempt establishment of the city manager government here,

Marty, substitute not permitted in the first game, was the heaviest hitter with his 800 average. Had Augie Galan not been injured, the chances are that Marty might not even have gotten into the lineup.
 Another surprise was Gabby Hartnett's flop. Old Gabby, great leader and clutch" player, couldn't do anything. He got one hit in II times for an 091 average.
 And Carl Reynolds, the second heaviest hitter on the Cubs during the season, was the batting goat. He had no hits in a dozen appear ances. The Yankees remembered him from the days when he was an American leaguer.
