The letter was written by MT. Sikofsky, who attended the dinner, to Mrs, Francis Phillips, of Bridge port, with permission to publish 1t if she wished, and Mrs. Phillips sent q copy of 1t to Mrs. Cianciolo. Si- korsly's description is in part as follows:
 During the year 1888 a dinner was held in the United States em- bassy in Berlin, at which thirty five other prominent Americans and Germans were guests. Previous to the dinner the group was awaiting the arrival of General Herman Goering. Upon his arrival United States Ambassador Wilson, who was present with his wife, took General Goertng by the arm, and introduced him to the guests present. Arriving at Mir. Lindbergh's seat, doering revealed g small box he was carry- ing, and speaking to Colonel Lind bergh, he said:
 |" I wash to bestow upon you for your contribution to aviation the greatest tribute that Germany can give to any mon.' Lisad6ergh, some what surprised, did not extend his hand in acceptance of the medal, and it was taken by the United States air attache, who was seated beside. him, and hung around his neck. Immediately there was great applause.
 Later, Colonel Lindbergh ap- preached Ambassador Wilson and asked if he thought he should ac- cept the honor bestowed upon him, Wilson stating, Take it; it will pro- mote good will between the United States and Germany"
 Any readers of The Democrat who would be interested in obtain ing copies of Sikcrsky's letter, may get them by writing Mrs. Phillips, at the American First Committed, 305 Fairfield avenue, Bridgeport.

Old "Er' Cars Adorn New YOrk'S Sanitation Employees Country Estate

Pawling, N. T., CUP)-You can't pry a real New Yorker away from his metropolitan background. Hence when any of New York city's 13,000 Department of Sanitation employees go to their new country estate, they'll rest in - renovated elevated cars.
 Before being changed into 20 bungalows, the cars rattled back and forth on the "El" in New York for upward of 50 years. Now they are lined with Philippine mahog- any and have the finest appoint mentS.
 The estate, named Santa Lodge, covers HOO acres of wooded hills and includes three lakes. It has a frontage of nearly two miles on another large lake.
 The unusual bungalows contrast with the administration building and community dining hall, fine rambling Colonial house. Here mothers can come for dinner when they tire of cooking for their fam lilies. They can relax at gaily col ored tables and chairs under para sols on the spacious lawn.
 The elevated cars are eqnuipped

STOCKING BUYERS WORRY MERCHANTS
Sales Limitation Started By Some to Give Every
 Woman Equal Chance

Local haberdashers were unde- cided today what to do about the long queues of women massed around the silk stocking counters, seeking to buy up a supply while it is still possible. Some stores have determined on a definite limitation of the number of pairs they will sell any one customer, in view of the wide demand; others feel that this will do no good, as purchas- CTS can visit several stores, or re- turn several times to the same one, and thus circvmvent any limita- ticns.
 After present stock is exhausted, there will be no possibility of get- ting any more silk, local mer- chants believe. The government, indeed, has determined that even silk substitutes are essential mater ials for national defense.
 Consequently, women are massed two and three deep around the counters. buying stockings while they may.
