Dear Chuck:
Well, Chuck, with so many of
youSe guys from INogales located
where you are, old Piccadilly must
look like Morley avenue on Sat
urday night.
Incidentally, how are those Picca-
dilly Pigeons? I know what the
pubs" SALOONS to the ignorant)
are like, with the beautiful Careful,
Loughman, how you use that word)
bar-maids, but I'll bet you your
next months salary, Chuck, that
all over England you have never
found another joint like the Con-
cordia. Yeh! I'll even bet you
two months salary that I'll over
Mexico you won't find another joint
like it. Brother, that Concordia is
one place where the customer is
always right I mean tight.
1 remember when I was in Eng
land and we we're riding back to
London (me and two other guys
that were drunk. Nearing the
town I said to one guy, 'Is this
We1nbly?" mo" he sez. its
Thursday" 80 am l." sez the
other guy, lets get a beer"
Boy, what country that is, and
how you can spend money! Part
of your money goes for liquor, part
of it goes on women and the rest
you spend foolishly.
If it's not military secret be-
tween you and Eisenhower and
Churchill will you please let me
know by Postal Telegraph Gable
(voice from the missus, 'The Postal
Telegraph is closed, and SO should
that big fat mouth of yours.")
Anyhow, Chuck, before the
missus interrupted I was asking
about the second front. If you need
two second fronts I just want to
tell you that Jay Bee Robinson and
L have the two best second fronts
in Arizona.
That's about all, Chuck, except to
tell you that we are just completing
another Red Cross drive, and like
the record that Santa Cruz County
has for sending more kids than any
other county per capita in the
USA. to the armed forces. think
that she will again top the nation
with the Red Cross. Gives guy a
lump in the throat to belong here.
Speaking of the Red Cross, it's
serious business but they have their
smile, too Like the one they tell
about the guy that came out of the
Red Cross station. He had a BAN
dage wrapped around his head, and
the well-intentioned old lady asked,
my dear boy. we're you hurt on the
head?" mo, lady," he sez, "a Jap
shot me in the seat of the pants,
but the bandage just slipped up
Best regards,
MARTY.
P.S.-Not many of us young guys
left here. The other day someone
asked Charlie Bauer if he was 4-F.
Charlie replied, No, I'm CT. .
The guy asks, "6-T what?"
Charlie sez, "6-T-7."

New Auto Tax Stamp
 Effective On July 1
4SO,OOO Motor Vehicles in Connecticut Must Display Evidence of Compliance With Law, Collector Warns

owners of 4S0,000 motor vehicles, registered in the State of Connecti- cut become liable for a new auto stamp on July 1, 1914, Frank w. Kraemer, Collector of Internal Rev. enue, reminded taxpayers Tuesday. The cost of the stamp is five dollars.
 Approximately 100000 stamps have already been sold at all post offices and revenue offices in Hart ford, New Britain, New Haven, Bridgeport, Stamford and Water bury, the early sale has been better than last year perhaps due to the fact that the recent check made by deputy collectors on the current stamp has directed attention to the necessity of acquiring new stamp.
 To the 380,00o motor vehicle owners who have only ten days left to purchase their stamps, MT. Krae- mer warned that check by deputy collectors could be expected imme- diately following the date that the new stamp becomes due. The pen- alty for failure to purchase and dis play the stamp is fine of $25,00 or imprisonment of not more than 30 days upon conviction. The fine ap- plies to the owner or the operator of the motor vehicle, or both.
 After purchase of the motor vehicle stamp the taxpayer should,

$15,OOO ACTION
 RESUMED TODAY
Objections Registered By Defense on Examination
 of Oil Co. Official

Questioning on the agency rela- tionship of the Elm City Filling Sta- tions, Inc. of New Haven and the Colonial Beacon oil Company of Massachusetts, was conducted in superior court today as trial con- tinued in the $l5,000 fatality suit brough by Mrs. Cecil Deschesnes, widow of Louis Deschesnes, against the two concerns.
 The plaintiff seeks to recover on the death of her husband, the bus driver who was killed in the disas- trous Cheshire road bus-truck col- lision of last Sept. 13.
 Abraham Alderman, secretary of the New Haven concern, was ques- toned by Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald, counsel for the plaintiff, on the considerations shown by his company to the Massachusetts con- cern in transporting oil.
 The questions were conducted amidst a continuous blast of ob- jections from Attorneys J. Warren Upson and Lawrence Lewis, counsel for the Colonial Beacon Oil Com pany, who took exceptions repeated ly when Judge Edward J. Quinlan permitted the queries.
 The defense counsel alleged re- peatedly, in voicing objections, that the New Haven concern was hired to transport oil for the Colonial company and did SO on a paid basis, without control being exercised by the Massachusetts company.
 In damitting the testimony, the jurist at one pointed stated "Agen- cy is one thing and scope of au- thority is another"
 The New Haven concerns official disclosed in one part of his testi- mony that an auditor of the Colonial company checked the books of his concern and took an inventory of products. He stated this was done prior to the time of the fatal acci- dent.
 The witness also testified that the Elm City company gave priority to the delivery oroers coming from the Massachusetts oil concern, and said that at times its trucks were idle because no oroers were forthcom- Ing from Massachusetts.
 It was indicated that further testimony would be sought by the plaintiff in an effort to show that the Elm City Filling Company was serving aS an agent of the other company on the day of the acci- dent. The oil on that day was scheduled for delivery to the Chase Brass and Copper Company in Wa terbury.
 William B. Reynolds, surveyor and engineer. was recalled to the stand today to give further testimony about the accident scene. He testi- fled that road speed signs were at the side of the road at the accident scene when he made his study earlier this month. He said the speed limit noted on four signs on the north side, disclosed limit of 25 miles an hour. In previous testi- mony, witnesses in the crash esti. mated the speed of the truck at 70 miles an hour.
