Thomaston, Oct. 30- Howard Finkle, 33, formerly of Thomaston, but now resident of Middlebury, took an appeal in local court last night when found guilty by trial justice James W. Scott of operating a motor vehicle while his license was under suspension and of driving while under the infleunce of liquor. A charge of reckless driving was noled. He was fined $100 on each count and assessed court costs of $11.50 making a total of $211.50.
 Finkle pleaded guilty to operating car without a license and not guilty to the other charges. He ad- mitted being arrested about seven years ago and also six months ago for driving under the influence and stated that in the latter instance, the case is still pending.
 The latest charge resulted from an accident on the Waterbury road on the curve below Guertins Inn at about $40 Monday afternoon, when

FUNDS NEEDED FOR
 STATE CONVENTION
American Legion Seeks Aid Of City For State
 Meeting Here

The Board of Finance last night considered the possibility of allocat- ing all but $20O of the 1941 appro- priations for patriotic celebrations to the American Legion to bring the annual state convention to this city. Even with $2.3OO, it was point ed out, the local Legionnaires will have to raise several thousand dol- lars more, since the city of Nor walk has voted to donate 5000 to the Legion to bring the conven- tion there.
 Under local charter requirements, no more than $2,500 can be set aside for holiday and patriotic ob- servances in any one year. Board members suggested that all this appropriation, except for a small sum, be made available to Corp. Coyle Post. However, definite ac- tion was deferred to later meet ing.
 The board began detailed work on the city budget for next year which, under the figures recom- mended by Budget Director Thor vald E. Olsen, calls for a tax rate of 315 mills. This rate would still allow the allocation of $50.000 for defense or other emergency pur- poses during the year.
 Tentative approval was given to the recommended appropriations for several departments.

FIRE DESTROYS
 NEW CITY BARN
$25,OOO Damage Estimat- ed By Blaze of Unknown
 Origin Yesterday

Torrington, Oct. 30-Damage es- timated between $20,000 and $25,000 was caused yesterday afternoon by a fire which completely destroyed the cattle barn of Radon and Temkin in the Torringford section. The or igin of the blaze has not been de- termined. Fire officials were busy to- day conducting an investigation, but it has been rumored that Spontan- eous combustion was the cause of the blaze.
 Leo Radem, one of the partners of the firm, drove about 100 heads of cattle out of the barn. One horse was burned to death and about two tons of hay and considerable farm machinery destroyed.
 Five years ago fire destroyed a barn owned by the same firm on East Main street, right in the heart of the town, and like<yesterday. the property was only covered partially by insurance.

 After Auto Knocks Down Four State Fences

car driven by him was alleged to have knocked down four state fence posts. Constable Albert Golden, who investigated the accident and made the arrest, stated the car, badly damaged by the collision, had been removed to Dolan's garage before his arrival at the scene. Both Officer Golden and Officer James P. Ryan, who also saw Finkle following the accident, testified he was under the influence.
 Described by the latter as singing, and shouting end in happy frame of mind whep in the lookup, Finkle declared he had no recOllec- tion of happenings following the ac- cident and attributed his actions to a bump on the head, received when his car overturned in the collision. He informed the court he had been hunting during the afternoon and had not been drinking. His compan- ion, Henry Lapham, he said, had a bottle of wine, and he admitted hav- ing taken one mouthful, but finding it too sweet to suit his taste, re- trained from swallowing it.
 Henry Lapham of Waterbury, Finkle's companion in the accident, was found guilty of intoxication and fined $2O plus court costs of $6.50. In lieu of funds his, removal to Lit enfield jail was ordered by Justice Scott.
 Last night marked Lapham's sec ond appearance in local court. He answered to a charge of driving un- der the influence here some time ago and was then found guilty and served jail sentence. He was ar- rested at the time by Officer Ryan. Failing to appear he was finally lo- cated and brought to court by the officer.
 Ralph North was the prosecuting grand juror in both cases last night.

Maritime Day Finds

On Ship Program
Wars Effect on Msrchun,
Murine Not as Severe
As Had Been Expected
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
National Maritime Day found the
United States today well advanced
on its civil shipbuilding program
and somewhat treasured as to the
effects of the war on its merchant
marine.
Contracts for the construction Of
152 merchant ships. to be built at a
cost of $3.50, 900 900, have been placed
in the last two and one-half years
by the Maritime Commission, which
was charged by Congress with the
responsibility of providing this
country with an adequate and we'll
balanced merchant fleet.
> The impact of the war has not
been as severe as was feared at first,
although through the Neutrality Act
1t has resulted In the barring of
more than 100 American flagships
from their regular runs to CONT
mental Europe. Most of the ships
have found their employment in
other services.
Better Than in 1914.
Rear Admiral Emory S. Land,
Maritime Commission chairman,
summed up the situation in his
latest report to Congress with the
observation that the overall pic
ture Of the merchant marine, despite
disturbing factors, "is far more sat-
lsfactory than in 1914"
Admiral Land accepted an invi-
tation to speak in San Francisco
today as part of the national mari
time observance.
