GAS SHORTAGE
DELAYS TRIAL
Speeding Cases Continued
Pending Check On
Speedometers

A speeding case was continued
for Judgment by Recorder Alton
A. Lennon in county court yester-
cav morning in order to allow the
defendant to obtain the gasoline to
have the speedometer of his auto
mobile checked.
Charged with speeding IS miles
per hour on the Carolina Beach
read Sunday afternoon, five miles
more than the official state
go mile per hour speed limit and
considerably above the unofficial
OPA 35 mile speed limit, Joseph
Chambers, 17-year-old Greensboro
youth, pleaded not guilty and told
the recorder that he would give
his 1882 model car to anyone who
"could get" IS miles per hour with
the car.
/ When the recorder suggested a
check of the speedometer, Cham
bers said that he was out of gaso-
line and would not be able to
oota;n any until November %
when another set of tickets in his
ration book becomes effective. The
recorder then continued the case
until November %.
Chambers was arrested by State
Highway Patrolman ]. L. Flowers
who also arrested Fred R. Wilson,
negro, at the same time and
charged him with speeding IS
miles per hour. Wilson pleaded
not guilty and asked for speed
ometer check and his case was
continued until November %.
Both men are free under $100
bond.
Under cross examinat ton yester-
day morning, Chambers admitted
fleeing from his car and said he
did it because he thought Patrol
man Flowers had had no oppor-
tunity to recognize him.

 Once he even bought an entire shipment of high-buttoned Women's shoes which had lain in a ware house for 40 years. Almost against his will he had to expand his dream place of one intimate room to an entire floor and then two floors and three, until now Bills Gay Nineties as it is called, is an adornment of Manhattan night life.

 Bill divides his collection rough ly into four categorieS-bric-a- -brac, programs. posters, books. There is fifth category which most patrons are not permitted to see-the saloon nudes which hung above the bar mirrors of a lustier day.
 | One of the choicest of these came from the private bar of Diamond Jim Brady. It represents a lush lassie, most carelessly draped, lyirg along a seashore.

NEW ARRANGEMENT
 ON WORK PERMITS
Waterbury Applicants May Go to Naugatuck for Em=
 ployment Certificates

Employment certificates which were formerly issued at "A centers by Clyde M. Campbell and Daniel T. Nolan, junior supervisors of at tendance, state department of edu- cation. will be issued, effective Jan- uary 13, at trade schools and rural supervisory offices in nine cities and towns, Dr. Alonzo G. Grace, com missioner of education, has an- nounced.
 The commissioner said clerks have been assigned from trade schools and rural supervisory offices to direct issuance of employment certificates in eighteen centers. However, in nine cities this involves only change of personnel and not a change of place of issuance Campbell and Nolan will continue to issue certificates in six centers. The nine centers affected are Dan bury, Manchester, Meriden, Middle town, Putnam, Stamford, Torring- ton, Naugatuck and Deep River.
 Action was taken, the commits sioner stated, because it is neceS- sary to provide a more effective means of issuing child employment certificates at this time to meet the needs of industry, business and youth seeking work. The state de- partment, with it's limited attend ance staff which issued over 10000 certificates last year, is unable to meet the need without transferring some of the work to educational agencies throughout the state, the commissioner said.
 The nine centers affected by the change in set-up will receive better service under the new plan, he said. Formerly, Campbell and Nolan issued certificates one day week at each center. Under the new Sys- tenn, clerks at trade schools and rural supervisory offices will be available five days week during the regular school or business hours
 In the centers affected, the fol- lowing places will be served by their local trade schools: Danbury, Man chester. Meriden, Middletown, Put nam, Stamford and Torrington.
 At Naugatuck, new service has been set up in the state board of education office, 203 Church street. Applicants in Deep River will apply at the state board of education of flee, Essex Square, Essex.
 Waterbury applicants may utilize the five-day week service at the Naugatuck center, since the Water bury office is open only one day a week. The Winchester office will be closed and residents of that city will apply at the Torrington trade school.

 FUEL KEPT AT
 A BARE MINIMUM
 Fuel for civilian use is being kept to minimum. AS the start in a campaign for voluntary restriction of fuel, the Govern ment recently ordered that all hot water in its 18,OOO buildings be cut off and office heat must never eX- ceed 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
 Britain's 1942 production of cars for civilian use will be 100 week. One thousand was the 1888 norm. This is in contrast to the American output of 100000 cars last year.
 Radios sold to the public of the United Kingdom in 1889 totaled 100000. That figure dropped to l84 ,000 in the past year.
 It is in clothing that the greatest single mass restrictions have talk en place during the past year. When the clothes ration became law early last summer it meant that every man, woman and child had to present coupons as well as money to make a purchase. The maximum coupon allowance for adults is f6 per year.
 There are many instances throughout Britain today of easy living. Some men and women are living luXuriously because they have large capital fortunes and there is .s vet only tax on income Gradually, however, that slack is being taken up and at some point during 1922 many of these in equalities may be leveled out.
