POWER CAPACITY
 SHOWS INCREASE
Gain of 5% Within Year Made By Generator in
 State Plants

Capacity of the generators in power plants generating electricity | in Connecticut reached total of 633, ,695 kilowatts at the close of last year, according to annual statistics recently issued by the Federal Power Commission an increase in Conec- ticut's generating capacity of more than five per cent as compared with statistics contained in the commis- sion's similar report for the previ- ous year.
 The actual increase in generating capacity in this state during the year, comparison of the two reports shows, was 31 800 kilowatts. By far the larger part of the gain in gen. erating capacity during the year was in the 25000-kilowatt installa- tion at the Connecticut Light and Power company's Montvilel Station, which was put into service last De- cember. Meanwhile work was pro- ceeding on the Hartford Electric Light company's 10000 kilowatt in- stallation at its South Meadow Sta tion, which with other work now under way, will bring further in- creases in Conencticut's rating for power production this year.
 According to the commissions re- cent compilation, the net gain in electrical generating capacity for the United States between Decem- Der 31, 1886, and December 31, 1887, was 565,060 kilowatts. Thus, the Connecticut increase in power facil- ities amounted to about 1-2 per cent of the total gain for the coun- try.
 The Federal Power Commission reports for 1886 and 1897 show that Connecticut's generating capacity at its steam-powered plants grew from 489,9 ,990 to 525, ,990 kilowatts, gain of 36,000 kilowatts or about 2 1-3 per cent; that the capacity of its hydro electric developments gained from 87, 7,165 to 90,265, an in- crease of 1-2 per cent or 3,100 kill owatts; that the rating of internal combustion engines remained at l. 100 kilowatts; and that the capacity of combination steam and water powered stations decreased by 7,600 kilowatts to 16,340 kilowatts, leaving net gain of 3l,500 kilowatts.

SALMON INDUSTRY
 FOR MASS. DOOMED

Boston, June 29-CUP)-A pro- gram to revive the salmon industry in Massachusetts was announced today by the state conservation de- partment.
 First move in the drive to restore the now extinct salmon to MaSsa- chusetts rivers is the raising of 5O,- 900 one-inch fingerlings at the state fish hatchery at East Sandwich. The 100000 eggs from which they were matched were donated by the fisheries division of the province of New Brunswick, Canada as a good will token.
 When sufficiently grown, the fingerlings will be placed in Par ker River in Essex County for spawning purposes.
 During colonial days and the 18th century, salmon was plentiful in Massachusetts, especially in the Merrimac and the Connecticut rivers.

land and Germany, the Polish government finds inside Poland a German movement which is very analogous to what the Sudeten German movement is in Czecho- slovakia. Just as the Sudeten cry that they are the worst vic- tins of the industrial depression, so do the Germans in Poland. Just as the German press has made a regular campaign about the Sud- etens, so in a lesser degree have they done with regard to the Ger mans in Poland.
 Nazi readers are told their poor countrymen in Poland are having their lands appropriated; that German merchants are being boy cotted; that German fishermen were busted from the Peninsula of Hela. They are told that in parts of Upper Silesia 80 per cent of the German workers are un- employed, Poles being given the preference.
 Encouraged by the German au- thorities, the Germans of Poland are taking steps to weld their l. 25O,000 into one great group with local Fuehrer, just as the Sedetens chose Konrad Henlein.
 Third: The Poles fear the time when Danzig may be proclaimed a German city once more, free of all port obligations to Poland. They also fear German seizure of the Polish Corridor, which di- vides East from West Prussia and gives Poland her access to the sea.
 Polish papers report German Nazis are flooding the Polish Cor ridor with Hitlerite tracts and even with maps showing that the two Po- fish provinces which constitute the Corridor are once more to be the German provinces of Posen and West Prussia.
 Fourth: It is reported the French diplomatic authorities told the Polish government that if Po- land stood aloof and allowed Czechoslovakia to be sacrificed, Poland need not expect any aid from France if she came into con- flict with Germany.

BRIEFS ORDERED
 FILED BY AUG. l

Bridgeport, Conn, June 29-(UP) Superior Court Judge Edwin c. Dickenson today ordered briefs filed by August in the fight of the towns of Bedding and Weston to prevent the Bridgeport Hydraulic Go. from discontinuing II miles of roadway within the area mapped out for new reservoir.
 The towns, backed by the Sauga- tuck Valley association, opposed the reservoir as ruining the natural beauty of the valley and declared 1t unnecessary inasmuch as the company had other watersheds which could be utilized for the same purposes.
 The company sought to prove the reservoir a matter of public neces- Sity and convenience.
