ISUFFIELD GETS
 STATE TROOPER
Prosecutor Acorn Says Move Merely Precau-
 ton Measure

Presence of at least one State Trooper on special assignment to the Suffield area was described re- gently by Special Prosecutor Alcorn as merely a precautionary measure. He denied that there was any req son why State Troopers should be stationed in his hometown other than to prevent a re-enactment of the Suffield bank robbery of a few months ago.
 Questioned concerning the report that a trooper had been assigned to guard his home, Alcorn laughed at the suggestion that there was any cause for such action.
 with all the Suffield officers working here on the conspiracy trial, we want to make sure that there won't be another holdup like that one in the bank" said MT. AL corn, dismissing the subject.
 Several months ago, bandits took advantage of the absence of the Suffield constables and held up the Suffield bank. George L. Greer, special investigator in the conspir- acy case left the local courthouse in blaze of speed that day to take up the investigation of that break.
 The seventh week of the conspir- acy trial will open next Thursday when the quest for the 18th juror will be pursued. Possibility that one or more alternate jurors will be selected looms stronger each day.
 One hundred and two veniremen will report Thursday for questioning as prospective jurors. About half a hundred challenges still remain at the disposal of the state and de- fense, therefore neither must be in any concern over the possibility of obtaining suitable man or woman.
 The eleven selected, thus far, three women and eight men, have been dismissed pending the selec- tion of the twelfth. Judge Inglis favors the plan of selecting one or more alternateS.

in business unless private invest ment gets under way. If 1t falLs government spending will have to continue. But 1t will have to be increased to expand the rise.
 
 It seems incredible that private investment has Jagged so long. There is perhaps no argument conceivable which could have induced Ameri- can business men in 1882 to be- lieve that the revival of private i1- yestment would have been delayed so long.
 One of the most important fac- tors of the last year was the de- cline in private investment. But as private investment has declin- ed, the condition of the entire plant of the American people has grown steadily worse and-for the first time in our history - actually smaller. 4
 In other words our mass of fac- tories, machines, railroads, utii- ties, houses, stores, and so on. which makes up the vast machine with which we live and do busi- ness, is actually smaller than it has been in a number of years.
 Most business men believe that this Shrinkage of the national plant must reach a point where replacement will become so iln- perative that it cannot longer be put of. Certainly railroad re- mobilization cannot be postponed much longer. The same is true

of many factories. And this is growing daily true of our hous- ing endowment.
 And so the moment must come when we must, from sheeer ne- cessity, begin to refurbish our na- tional plant. That will imply in- vestment. Will that point come thb year? Indeed, many ask, has it not already come?
 Certainly the resumption of in- veStment has not yet begun. For instance, in this year as far as the figures are known, security financing for new industrial purposes was &C., tually smaller than in 1897. Up to October 31, 1887, new security issues amounted to $695, ,468, 900 while in the same period this year it was only $422, ,000, 900.
 The same thing is true of pri- vate construction. Up to Novem- Der of last year private construc- ton amounted to $1,762, ,000, 900 while this year it was $1 1,428, ,00O, 900. There is this difference-that last year at this time it was diminish ing while this year it is increasing.
 Dark as these figures seem, how ever, they only add to the condition already referred to-that the lack of investment has resulted in such a vast volume of obsoleScence and depreciation that start at replace ment on a grand scale must begin soon.
 It is this which makes so many believe that this year the major swing will get under way. But no one should commit himself rashly to that prediction.
 There is one factor of immense importance. If there has been no rise in investment, it is not be- cause the means of investment do not exist.
 Indeed, never in our most pros-

LIGHTS ON TREE
 CAUSE OF BLAZE
Defective Wiring Blamed for Fire at PisciOtti
 Home Last Night

Defective wiring in a set of orr namental lights last night set fire to Christmas tree at the home of MT. and Mrs. Nunzio Pisciotti, 274 Walnut street extension, and the blaze quickly spread through the room. The fire started an instant after Bonnie Pisciotti, 5, had plug ged in the Christmas tree lights.
 The owner of the house, Gaetano Rinaldi, battled the blaze with a garden hose till firemen arrived. The bedroom in which the tree stood was badly scorched, and dam- age was also done to the kitchen.
 Deputy Chief Martin J. Campion directed firemen of Engines and T, and Truck 2 in battling the blaze.
 At 5:12 this morning. Engine 2 went to Camp street, where truck owned by Cashins' Dairy, and driven by Louis Waldo, had caught fire. The blaze started when alcohol fumes came in contact with the hot motor.

porous periods has there been available so much money in the commercial banks and in the sav- ings banks for investment. One of the strangeSt Spectacles in fi- nancial history is this vast reser- voir of funds which absolutely refuses to flow into investment, while at the same time there is a vast accumulation of plant re- Mobilization and requirement. cry ing out for money.
 The one great commanding problem before the country is the means of starting this immense ocean of savings flowing into the immense ocean of investment. Will it begin this year?
 It will not, certainly, begin at once. That Is, not in the first months of the year. But it may be- gin sometime during the year. No man can predict about that. But, while waiting for it. everything de- bends on the course of government SpenQlng.
 Government spending of bor- rowed funds has been on a larger scale this year than last. But there are signs that there will be some effort to check this spending when congress convenes.
 Serious as are the possibilities of future trouble in this spending program, it would be a very seri- ous matter if 1t were curtailed now. But it would be equally serious if the country pinned all its hopes on government spend- ing.
 That is merely bridge. If we depned on government spending the most we can hope for is a moderate rise. But if the means of applying the spark to savings to explode them into investment can be found. then real recovery would be under way.

StattStlctan James LICCle gave num- erous safety talks and exhibitions during the year, many of them in schools here and in nearby towns. Tn the fiscal year ending Dec. 1, the accident squad made 848 arrests for motor vehicle law violations.
 Fatal Shooting
 The death of Howard Scott, 36, of 89 Sheffield street, by shooting, pro- vided the most sensational police case of the year. Detectives directed by Chief Inspector Joseph P. Stew ems began immediate work on the case, and though early clues were lacking, managed to secure evidence against Scott's wife, Thursa Grant Scott, and subsequently a confes- sion from her. In superior court Mrs. Scott pleaded guilty to man. slaughter and was sentenced to serve three to seven years in state prison.
 In another staying during the year, that of Edward Mahoney of Lafayette street. Montgomery Will son, colored, was arrested. He was sentenced to serve a year in jail. A puzzling series of over 20 house breaks was solved in the fall with the arrest of a group of young men. Three men alleged to have stolen large quantities of metal from lo- cal factories, and two alleged fences who are charged with acting with them were arrested.
 Many arrests were made for breaking and entering and theft, and the detective bureau recovered stolen property valued at more than $9O,0OO.
 No Strike Violence
 There were no public disorders or demonstrations during the year of any consequences. Extra police were on duty at several strikes but no violence was reported.
 More than 30 extra policemen were on duty at Christmas time, and the heaviest traffic in several years was reported.
 Death during the year took for mer Supt. Joseph H. Mclean, for mer Chief Inspector William P. Keegan, Capt. Frank Cutting, Sergt John Phelan and Patrolman Leo Buckmiller.
 The police radio system proved an invaluable aid during the year. The radio made it possible to have po- licemen answer a call from even the remotest part of the city in a very few minutes. The system was responsible for arrests in several important cases.
 Promotions In April a number of department changes were made. Patrolmen Ern- est Pakul and Patrick Hobart of the vice squad were made lieuten- ants, Lieut.. John Leary of the de- tective bureau was made a cap- tain, and sergeantcies were given John Mates and Anthony Mariana. Later in the year, Lieut.. Fred Hickey was made a captain, and Sergt. Joseph McEvoy of the motor patrol squad became . lieutenant.
 Sixteen new patrolmen were ap- pointed in April.

 And the loud laugh becomes a cry. Don't get too exuberant,
 Mix your drinks with restraint, Because usually the morning after
 Things seem what they ant Now don't think us too carping
 Dishing out donts instead Of cheer, Because all don'ting aside
 We're saying, Happy New Year!
