Wm. Shore Principal
 In Realty Negotiation
Manager of EverybOdy's Market Offers SSO7,SOO for
 Building on Asylum Street. Hartford

It is understood that Mir. shores offer has been recommended for adoption by the noteholder's com mittee and such recommendations will be forwarded to the general meeting next week.
 Explaining that he plans no change in the present tenancy, Mir. Shore, who is general manager of the William Shore Inc, Mill street, this city, operators of the Every bodys Market and similar chain of stores in this city and Bristol, added that negotiations haven't been quite completed.
 The building there, assessed at $727, ,57S according to the 1944 Hart ford grand lisr, is occupied by the Capitol National Bank & Trust Co.,, which has no connection with the ownership and by other offices and a store. It was constructed in 1923.
 Present owners are holders of the certificates of deposit issued in ex- change for the Parker Smith Com pany first mortgage notes under the original mortgage, as provided in a deposit agreement made March Il 1881.
 The first mortgage was originally placed June 8, 1925 on the property by the Parker-Smith Co.,, was for $500, 900. all of the notes of which are still outstanding.
 Holders originally having notes to the value of $723,700 have deposited them under the 1881 deposit agree ment and the certificates are now held by the New Haven Bank NBA, of 809 Chapel Street, New Haven, as depositary. The number of holders of the notes and certificates of de- posit is approximately S75.
 The noteholders' committee con- siders that the size of the issue and tho number of persons involved make the property cumbersome to handle and possibly top-heavy.
 It is estimated that if the sale is approved, each certificate of de- posit holder will receive in the fi- nal liquidation approximately 30 Der cent of the face value of his holdings after all commissions, taxes and adjustments.
 MT. Shore was a resident of West Hartford from 1892 to 1885, hav- ing a home at l27 Ballard Drive. During his three years residence he was president of ETerybody's Market, Inc, then at 80 Main Street, Hartford.

EMPLOYES PLEDGE
 SUPPORT TO PLAN
French Mig. Co. Workers Vote to Extend Work
 Schedules

Employees of the French Manufac- turing Company have volunteered to work on l0-hour daily schedule during the present emergency, shortage of ammunition and weapons in war zones. The hours for the day force will be from 8:30 a. m. to 6:30 D. m., thereby avoiding any serious traffic compositions. It is understood that union leaders have advised employees of other divisions of the American Brass Company to offer their services to step up pro- duction.
 It is understood that during the extra hours for which employees have volunteered they may work at jobs other than their daily routine. The CIO union has not only approved of the plan, but played a leading part in promoting sentiment for it's adoption by employees.
 The Torrington branch of the American Brass Company recently decided to lengthen the work day schedule to permit employees to offer their services and work two or three hours more daily.
 At the French Manufacturing Company the one unsettled issue is a definite ruling on the application of employees who were denied vaca- tion privileges last summer on the claim that they had not worked sufficiently long enough to merit the privilege. The employees countered with the claim that they were laid of around Christmas time when some "cut backs in orders became effective. When the company later sent out an s. o. s. many Of the employees gave Up other jobs to re- turn to their former places. They argued that 1t was the companys fault that they were forced to term mate their work and place the va- cation privilege in doubt. Union officials have interceded and a deci- sion Is expected to be announced shortly.
