CLOCK INDUSTRY
 MAKES PROTEST
President of New Haven Clock Co Speaks Against
 Trade Agreement

Hartford, Conn.,, April 26-- (UP)- The president of the New Haven Clock Co.,, today asked for mercy" from the U. s. State department in it's reciprocal trade program. "The clock and watch industry" said R. H. Whithead, the official, "got an awful raw deal from the state de- partment. We're just stymied. We need help. I'm just asking you for mercy" He addressed himself di- rectly to Assistant Secretary of State Francis B. Sayre, who attend ed and spoke at a meeting of the Connecticut Manufacturers associ- ation last night.
 Unless something is done," Whit head said, "the clock industry will be irreparably harmed. I lay off hundreds and hundreds of people. It's absolutely nonsensical to say that we're being beneficial" He sin gled out Swiss imports of watches and clocks for especial condemna- tion. Sayre told the group the bus- mess depression probably would have been livery much worse" if the reciprocal trade agreements of the administration had not been con- cluded. Wait until we get this pro- gram along" he advised, land I think the number of doubters will be substantially reduced"

Snively, rector of Trinity Episcopal church at Whitinsville.

Had "Alibi"

Was the Republican who once served the state as governor for a day, as veteran senior member of Connecticut's representation in the senate, friend of presidents and of ranking officials everywhere-was Senator Bingham summonsed as a witness in the Waterbury grand jury investigation?
 Rumors spread that this could be the sole reason for his visit to Waterbury. But rumors were aborted a bit later when it de- veloped:
 That Senator Bingham has been out of the state and that he hadn't even heard about the grand jury in Waterbury"
 That Senator and Mrs. Bingham are here as guests of R. w. Phil lips, president R. F. Griggs com- pany, brokers, of 50 Leavenworth street, right across a parking lot from the county courthouse.
 That the senator, contrary to being interested in Waterbury's politics, or the fact that Francis w. Phillips. of the R. F. Griggs company firm, is a former Re- publican alderman in Waterbury, a former candidate for city treas urer, is through with politics"
 That the senator and R. w. Phillips are going out to play golf this afternoon.
 And, so the grand jury lost an- other rumCred customer.

SOUTHBURY INN OWNER APPEALS
Seeks Superior Court Rul- ing on Proposed Sign
 for "BrOiler Farm"

Nellie I. Brown, proprietor of the Old Hundred Inn, Southbury, to- day filed an appeal in su- perior court from the objection of the zoning board of appeals of Southbury, to her erection of huge sign on her property.
 The sign would read "Old Hun- dred Broiler Farm" and would be of a size larger than that allowed by the zoning laws.
 The plaintiff claims that the sign would be on chicken house, and that the chicken house was in the process of construction before the zoning law was adopted. She claims the house is back too far from the highway to use the regulation sign as 1t would not be legible.
 The zoning law holds that mot more than two signs shall be erect ed on the property and each shall not be larger than 10 feet square" i" Attorney James E. Mcknight of Waterbury representes the plaintiff.

May l. Twenty-seven new privates will go on duty, but 1t has not yet been decided whether they will be- gin as firemen on Sunday or Mon- day. The latter day will probably be selected.
 Kelley to Move
 Of the many changes which will be made, only two are known. Though not yet officially announced it is a virtual certainty that Capt. Joseph Kelley, who becomes drill master of the department Sunday, will be transferred from his present post at headquarters on Field street to thee ngine house at East Main and Orange streets. Drill head quarters for firemen are at this sta- tion. The other expected change is the transfer of Lieut.. Micahel Cavanaugh from his present post at the Burton street engine house to the Town Plot engine house.
 The other changes are still not known officially and can only be srrmised. Chief Cavanaugh has the problem of assigning B new of- ficerS and 27 new privateS. Mean time. there will be seven members of the department going into re- tirement Sunday.
 Chiefs Privilege
 Members of the board of fire com- missioners conferred once last week with the chief relative to the trans fers, but it is understood that as- signment of the men has been left entirely in the hands of the chief by the board.
 The changes made necessary by the shakeup in the department will affect every engine house in the city. The 27 new privates will be scattered among the various houses, and during their first several months as firemen must spend sev- eral days each week in training courses under the direction of Drillmaster Kelley.
