goula rivers. after long and con
tinued protests by citizens and
the Chamber of Commerce. II is
high time that such repairs were
started, and the neglect of this
stretch of road by the state de-
partmenf amounts to almost Grim
inal negligence. The state OF
some of the bridges is extremely
dangerous and in several in
stances serious accidents have
been narrowly averted when
automobiles have struck the
deep sinks in the bridges and
been very nearly thrown through
the guard rail. When Jackson
county had charge of the main
tenance of this stretch of high
way it was always in tip top
condition, but almost ever since
the state took over the road has
been neglected and allowed to
fall into a dangerous state of dis
repair. A recent traffic survey
shows that this stretch of High
way 90 is next to the heaviest
travelled highway in the state,
Imagine what would happen il
q heavy truck went through one
of the weakened bridges. Traf-
fic would be completely dis
rupted for some time. Vital work
at the ingalls, Shipyard, which
draws thousands of its work
ers from the lower coast. would
be unavoidably delayed. In view
of all these facts il seems that
the state department could have
moved some time ago to effect
necessary repairs, or better yet
keep the stretch in the same con-
dition that the county kept il in.

ment. the auxiliary buds. instead of
remaining dormant, as in the case
of the parent cabbage, depart from
family habits. Miniature heads ex-
actly like the true cabbage in make
up develop along the stem.
Several varieties of brussels
sprouts are now available to grow
ers, but there Is only one general
type, since the main difference is in
the length of the stalk and the
manner in which the sprouts are
distributed on 1t.
The enemies and diseases of the
cabbage have been inherited by the
sprouts. The aphids, greenworm,
harlequin-bug and cutworm are the
most aggressive pests, The rots,
mildew and damping-off fungus are
not quite so troublesome.
The soil in which the sprouts will
flourish is that offered to the late
cabbage. The plants must be worked
and fertilized, and given ample room
to spread. Seeds must be sown or
plants purchased so they may be
placed in the ground by July 10.
Before the plants are ready for
harvesting, the lower leaves must
be broken away In order to make it
easy to remove the mature heads. A
sharp knife with short blade is used
This Is quite important, as a long
bladed knife could injure closely al

Father of Drowning Vic. tim Sought Damages
 of $15,OOO

Litigation started over the drown- ing of six-year-old William H. Antz of Naugatuck July 19, 1922, in a small canal on premises of the D.. s. Rubber Co.,, has been settled out of court, it was indicated today when withdrawal papers were filed in Superior Court.
 Damages of $15,000 were sought by the boys father, William C.. Antz, as administrator of his estate, from the Naugatuck concern. He claimed his son suddenly slipped into the ditch. which was 125 yards long, six yards wide, and six feet deep, after he sat down on bank with an 11-year-old playmate. The children had been playing at an adjacent playground a few minutes before.
 Negligence was charged against the company for failing to place a fence around the canal or to post a watchman at the premises or to give warning of the allegedly dan gerouS condition. The plaintiff claimed the owners knew children. were accustomed to play near the ditch.
 In an affirmative defense the con- cern claimed the child was impelled by 8 spirit of childish mischief or was gratifying a childish desire when he fell into the ditch, that he was in full perception of the risk he war running. Terms of set- clement were not disclosed.

San Francisco Host to 90 Australian Women at
 Party Today

San Francisco. April 20. - CUP) - San Francisco was host today to 90 Australian war-brides and sweet hearts of American service men.
 The women, nine with babies and many others expectant mothers, disembarked yesterday from the ship which brought Prime Minister John Curtin from Australia.
 The Red Cross and emergency housing bureaus provided initial care for the pretty, young voyagers, who will scatter to all parts of the United States as soon as they are able to obtain travel accommoda- tions. Some will make their homes with relatives or friends of their husbands. Others will take "dura- ton jobs." Many intend to live near ports where their husbands may land.
 The girls, whose average age is 20 years, were almost as excited about the chance to buy unrationed clothes as at the prospect of seeing the United States.
 Present red-tape makes taking an Australian bride difficult project Mrs. Jeanie Mccullough, 20, wife of Seaman First Class Robert Nc Cullough of Cleveland, said.
 Because there were so many de- Sertions and bigamies, Army and Navy authorities now demand that there must be a six-months period between the filing of a marriage application and the wedding" she said. ''The only exception is made when a girl is pregnant and then the wedding can be held imme- diately.
 There must be doctors certifi- cates and letters from parents and character references for the girl For the service man there must be recommendations from commanding officers and certificates of single ness.
 "Its all very difficult, particularly if the girl is not of age - but it is worthwhile" Mrs. Mccullough said, adding that there are hundreds of such marriages. She said that Aus tralian men naturally were some- what jealous.
