Hears Lecture On Pneumonia

Large Audience in At- tendanre at W hilon Memorial I.A§t Night.Pr. Francis A. Blake, Sterling

p rof^ or of Medldne at Yale Uni­versity and Physlclan-ln-Chlef of the New Haven Hospital gave an illusUated scientific lecture on the recent dcvcloptncnls In the treat­ment of lobar |iueumonla c a w d bv the pneiimococcue germ, before a largo audience s f the Whiton Memorial auditorium last night under Uie sponsorship of the Con- neettent Stale and local medical

make opened hla talk with a brief explanation of the thirty three tyi-es of pneumococcus lobar pncumonlaa and a short resume of the steps taken by chemlats to ilevelop the drug siilfapyrldlnc fnmi sulfiinllanlde, and Indicated that clicmlsla are even noW per­fecting drugs to Improve on sul- fapyradlne, which la so effective In a high percentage of pneumonia cases.

Early TreatmentA compari^tn of the use of

scrum with that of aulfapyradlnc showed one to be as effective ss the other. Dr. Blake stated. In the older methods of treatment, mor­tality rates ran about 25 per cent. The administration of cither the drug or serum in (he first 48 hours of the disease, has reduced this figure to five per cent. This rale rapidly Increases, ha said, until on the sixth day of the disease neither method la of any value.

The dramatic response of cases treated early. In which the germ had entered the blood stream, were shown In pictures. Dr. Blake's Il­lustrations were from a large series of cases under his care at the New Haven Hospital and he Indb alcil that the evidenre of suc­cess with the new metlxHls was the same In all parts of the worM.

About 20 per cent of thbse tak­ing the new dnig experienced un­pleasant nausea and vomiting for about 10 days, he stated. This rarely ever leads to serious conse­quences, however.

Elderly l*allmU The five j)er cent that succumb

to the disease In spite of serum or sulfapyradlne, are Invariably peo­ple wiv) are over 00 years of age an<I who suffer from some chronic disorder of the heart or kldneya, Pr. Blake said. The speaker cited one case where death occurred In which the patient wa-s younger but had a serlo\is heart condition.

After mentioning a new drug, not now In general uae, but ap­parently belter than that now pre-' scribed. Dr. Blake closed his ad­dress to the assembly, asserting that mi vacelue Is as yet available for the prevention of pneumonia but-that murli', could be nccom- pltstu'd If people affected with common i;oldH would avoid infect­ing others by hygienic mcBs\ires.

After his address Dr. Bti^e conducted a forum and answered many questions from his audience.

Washington, Jan. 29—(A5 — The Supreme Court ruled today that i New York city’9 2 per cent'sales' tax, os applied to products brought into the city from outside the state, does not Infringe the com­merce clause of the Federal con­stitution.

Justice stone delivered the ma­jority opinion sustaining the leg­islation against an attack on spe­cific constitutional grounds.

Tho litigation was returned, however,. to the state courts for further consideration as to wheth­er the state taxing act applied to these transactions.

Stone also said that further pre­sentation could be made to the Supreme court "of any Federal question remaining undecided here. If the state court shall de­termine that the taxing statute Is applicable.”

Chief Justice Hughes, joined by Justices McReynolds and Roberts, delivered a dissenting opinion, aiH sertlng that "from any point of view, tho tax now contested is laid upon Interstate sales.”

Reveniea Prevloua Decisions.Ii) another tax decision, the high

court reversed an opinion deliv­ered four years ago and sustain^ legislation taxing bank deposits of Kentuckians kept outside the state at a rate five times greater than that assessed on deposits within the state.

Justice Reed, himself a Kentuck­ian, delivered the dectston holding the legislation constitutional.

The hqjh court, {n another Opin­ion, also reversed previous deci­sions to broaden the field of estate taxation by holding that an estate tax may be imposed on the "re­mainder interests" of trusts creat­ed for the benefit of others, after the deduction of their life Interest.

ContMtioN BwstSInefiA government contention that a

Federal Court ot-Appeala h * no right to supervise the administra­tive action of the Federal Com­munications commission was sus­tained today by the Supreme court.

The tribunal revets^ a decision directing the FCC to reconsider an application by the Pot'tsvUle (Pa.) Broadcasting Company for a radio atatlon construction permit with­out a t the same time considering two other applications subsequent­ly filed.

Justice Frankfurter, who wrote the unanimous opinion, asserted that "courts are not charged with general guardianship against all potential mischief In the compUcat. ed tasks of government.”

The decision directed the United States Court of Appeals for the

’ District of Oolumbla to dissolve a writ of mandamus granted against the commission and to dis­miss the broadcasting company's petition..

Japanese Plan Protest Again On Liner Case

New Note May Demand Formally That Nazis Be Returned by Brit* ish; Reply Inadetpiate.Tokyo, Jan. 29—(iP)—Japan pre­

pared a second protest to Great Britain today on the setsure of 21 Germans from the Japanese liner Asama Main as the case approach­ed the proportions of a major po­litical and International issue.

A Foreign Office spokesman said the new protest might de­mand formally that the Germans be returned. The Japanese inter­pretation of international law In such coses holds that only pei^sons active in fighting serviiies nre lia­ble to selsurc front neutral ships. The Germans were all seamen of military age.

The unpublished British reply to the first note over the incident Jan. 21 when a British warship fired a warning shot across the Assma Mam's bows 35 miles off Yokohama, stopped her and took off the Germans, was coiled "in­adequate."

struggle for control of Rumsnis's key oil resources was intensified today with arrival by plane of a 25-member British-French mlasioa followed shortly by n new group of German negotiations who came by train.

Part of the Rumanian press adopted aa anti-alUed tone, accus­ing Britain of Interfering with Ru­mania's Internal affairs in an in­tolerable fashion tn the oil battle.

Forelgn-owned oil companies were accused* of reducing produc­tion and British agents of leasing Danube river barges solely to pre­vent oil from reaching Germany.

Stay Break BetattensA highly-placed informant re­

ports (.rest Britain and France have given Rumaqla to understand they may break off economic rela­tions with thla country unless the question of oU for Germany is set­tled to their satisfsetioo.

Dr. Grace Tells Kiwan- ians New Program Is For Less CentralisationThe Kiwanis Oub hald lU weekly

noonday meeting at the local State -Trade School end enjoyed a fine dinner and program arranged by Director J. G. Echmalian. The latter had secured as apeaker Dr. Alonzo G. Grace, eUte oommtazlon- er of education, who gave one of . M the most interesting addresses ever ^ listened to by the club.

William Roecoa, head of the car- ntry department of the Trade lool, drew for the attendance

pri^donated by Walter Quinn and ■ and winning name ha pull­

ed from'the hat was his own. The dinner wite. prepared by Walter Kltching of achool faculty and Klwanians wer^harged their usual price to partake turkey and the fixings. \

Lleutsnant-governo^ Michael Cej vera of Bridgeport paiiKan unex-X pected visit to the club. ^He said ’ that It was the first time that he’d been in Manchester and he 'was highly impressed by the beauty of the town, and this area.

The Klwanians stood a moment In silent tribute to the late W. W.' Robertaon, a former member of the club, who died Saturday.

For Preclae Thinking Dr. Grace’s talk was In largo

part an advocacy of a more selec­tive education based on the varying tendencies and equipments of the pupils. He emphuited particular­ly, the need of curricular changea in the upper grades ana high schools calculated to prepare the minds of students for the reception of whatever apeclalized training they might take up in preparationfor their life work. ____

Actual training In skills he de­clared to be the function of the occupational schools, but that ex­pressed the belief that in the past not enough attention had been given to the development of preci­sion in thinking, the mental neat­ness and self discipline essential to the acquiring of technical educa­tion.

The apeaker pointed out the pre­vailing condition of a .shortage of skilled w’orkers. The mere posses­sion of skills, he said, was no- guar­antee of a job, but it did provide the technically trjilned student with a passport to a job If one exist­ed. «

X.5M On WalUng List In this connection he pointed out

that the State Board of Education, at the laat aeaaion of the Legisla­ture, presented a trade school bud­get of slightly over a million dol- lira. The Department of Finance and Control whittled this down to $600,000 and appropriation final­ly approved by the General Assem­bly was $768,000. And this In the Xace of the fact that 2,500 boys and nrls were on the waiting list of the trade schools, who for lack of fa^lties are denied the oppdrtu- nityxfor skilled training.

DrX Grade emphasized the fact that l6 planning for a redirection of the'ftate school system the policy had been adopted of a larger control o^ achool curricula by local authorities. He believed, he said, that the chuges ahould be worked out from the bottom rather than arbitrarily created at the top, with less centralizi^lon of authoiXty In the state boa

3. Certain large baking com­panies "raised prices st toe same time.”

4. "A rise In price of one cent per loaf represented different per­centage lncreaaea,/’for toe same baking company loaves of dif­ferent weights itt different areas at prices which vara by more than 60 per cent." , j ^

No intelligent far­mer plants tobacco on heavy clay soil or alfalfa on a strongly acid soil. He knows the nutritional re­quirements and the soil condition necesaary to beet growth of bla crop, and If they are not present he tries to furnish them.

Forest trees differ from most other crops In that they take up a smaller amount of food annually and absorb it more slowly. For that reason a forest soil may teat very low in the Important plant food constituents such as available nitrogen, phosphurua, potassium and calcium, and still support a good stand of timber. Nevertheless, trees are reaponsive to feiftllity.

Thirdly, a good forest soil is res. sonably fertile. Although trees will exist on poor soil, the best growth and healthiest stands are generally found on good soil. The owner whose forest land is better than average can take advantage of his fortune by favoring the moat vatu able ajpeclea or by planting pure stands of these trees without fear o f causing soil deterioration. But On soils of medium or low fertility, which constitute the bulk of our forest and woodlot land, mixed stands are usually preferable.

Johnson Says Strategy’ to Keep Both Parties Guessing Is Good.Columbus, O., Jan. 29.—(P>—

Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, here to ad­dress the United Mine Workers convention today, described John L. Lewis’ break with the New Deal as clever polUlcal strategy,. “ Lewis is out to keep both

parties guessing," the former NR A administrator said. "He put them nn the anxious seat. Labor should never let Ua support be taken for granted."

The CTO leader, tn criticizing the Roosevelt administration last week, said the Democratic party should not take for granted that it always would have labor's support.

Johnson said that in contrast certain other CIO leaders were "going around talking and letting the Democrats be sure of them­selves."

Endorsing AdministratinnAmong those endorsing the

Roosevelt admliMstration was Sid­ney Hillman, head of the CIO-aiTII- iated Amalgamated Clothing Workers, who is coming here to­day.

Johnson said Lewis had another good reason for splitting with the Roosevelt administration.

"Lewis has been getting a run around at the White House,” he added.

The former NRA boss, whom speech was expected to keep na­tional politics a lively topic in the convention, predicted. Roosevelt would be renominated and said Senator Burton K. Wheeler (D., Montana), who refcelved a warm reception from the United Mine Workers, did "not have a chance” to get the nomination.

Disagrees With Locals Johnson disagreed with several

local miners unions, which have in­troduced resolutions demanding that no more U. M. W. funds'be contributed to political campaigns.

The United Mine Workers gave approximately (450,000 to the Democratic national campaign tn 1936, Secretary-treasurer Thomas Kennedy said.

" I don't see anything wrong in a labor union contributing,'’ John­son remarked. "Management and industry do, and usually to both ■Idea so they can be safe. But labor ought to wait until the con­vention and find who is the can­didate and what la the platform."

Informed sources, said the ques­tion of political contributions prob­ably would be left to the discretion o f the U. M. W. International Ex­ecutive Board.

Officials aiding Americans caught on the wrong side of the Atlantic when Germany Invaded Poland said that then umber atUI tn Europe could not be determined until a "census” now under way was completed.

ra;»' of 9,000 a week Immediately after the war started, but the number decreased. Ihcomlng ves­sels and planes now carry only a handful.

'A'hile most tourists who were skylarking through Europe in the late Slimmer have come back, olTi- cials said a considerable number of American businessmen remained in belligerent and nearby “ threaten­ed" countries even though they had .sent their wives and families home. They are expected to remain un­less the countries In which they work actually are Invaded.

Official "advice” that Americans

ous neutral nations, especially con­cerning women and children, have been prompted by the fact that

rauldlng, O., Jan. 29—(Jp)—A modern "WllHam Tell," 48-year-old Oscar Ball, wa.s summoned to a coroner's inquest-today to describe the slaying with’ a well-aimed rifle shot of a man holding a loaded pistol near the head of Ball's 19- ycar-old son and threatening to puH'thp trigger.

Balt, tt farmqr, told authorities/ that Lauils Strake, 33, struck Ui the forehea'l with a .‘J2 calibre rifle l)Ullet Hred 200 feet, menaced Ball's son, Rkdiard, in an effort to collect "blai’kmail" money, Vo- lice Chief Frank Wnllnr/Snld,

Strake sciueczcd tlie 'trigger of his pistol a."* he slumped to the ground, but the shot was tneffec- llve.

Young Ball said Strake and an iinldentlllod man came to the Ball farm honio near Oakwood Satur­day while hl-s parents were on a shopping trip, the pair forcing him to go to PcflulV'e, 15 miles north of Oiikwood.

Threatent'd To Kill FatherStrake left his companion in De­

fiance and returned the tmy to his home, threatening en route to "kill your father," Wallar quoted Rich­ard Ball.

Standing beside the automobile In a barnyard near the house, Strake railed to Oscar Ball to "come out."

’The father step|>ed onto the porch, but. receiving a warning from hia aon, dashed to an upatalra window from which he shot Strake while the assailant pointed his gtin at the boy and threatened to shoot him unless Ball paid "plenty of money."

Neither Strake nor the boy, standing a. yard apart, saw the father taking aim from the win­dow, since they were watching for him to reappear on the porch.

b<^ who aet" off a bomb la a unit of a multiple explosives maraxlna In Avon-whlch Just happened to be empty—and then burned a summer cotta*e mdy uaconaolous- ly have rendered some compensa­tion for their brief debaiiM of ertma. If the people of Connecti­cut are not, by this case, made aware of the RV>yaUy destructive effect of the existing >ivenlle crime Uws of the sUte, and are not moved to demaad a drastic re­vision of the whole sysUm, then It la difficult to Imagine anything that might awaken them.

The Intelllganoe of these boys, one said to be 15 and tbe other 16, certainly cannot be low^r than that of thousands of adults now paying In the country’s prisons the penalty for crimes no greater than those to v ^ c h the lads have confessed. They were studenU In a superior school, they had me­chanical and chemical knowledge enough to manufacture a real bomb and make the explosive with which to load I t They demon­strated a lively appredatlon of cause and effect They were chil­dren In no true sense.

It la true that If one of these boys has actually passed hla 16th birthday he does not legally enjoy the Immunity from criminal prose­cution extended by tbe juvenile laws to hla companion. But^ no great degree of fault la to be found with the authorities for pro­ceeding, so far, as ^ough both were In the same privileged lx>at They wera taking no chances.,^

SfiTingfi Bank DirectoraUntil Bank Oonunlsaioner Perry

kraught up the subject last week tbare were probably a good many daposltors In mutual Mvlnga ksnks who knew nothing about It; did not know that there are many dteactora of such banks In this State who haven’t a nickel on de­posit tav the Institutions they run T at It is a fact. Mr. Perry says It Is true of sdmoet half of the state’s savings bank directors.

Mr. Perry does not approve of such a situation. He urges the adoption of a state law requiring that only bona fide depositors in any mutual savings bank shall be

' eligible to participate In its man­agement as directors or trustees.

' He points out that In other oor- pocmtlons only stockholders may hacome dlreotora and advises the adoption of the same principle to the numsgement of savings

also drawlBg waakly ehocka from Mtsoouit’a unamj^i^mMat inaur- anos fund, up to $18 a weak.

This Is dona under- a peculiar pke^eing Of the uissourl law and an Interpretation of It by tha state's unemployment Insurance commission. The ball players’ salaries are on a yearly baala, but the salaries are paid In fraction­al allotmenU on regular pay days during tbe playing season, ao that there are several months during which they do not receive checks. I t is on thU basis that they claim to be "unemployed.”

THla la about as mean and oon- tamptible a variety of chiseling as baa come to light In connection with relief work. These ball play­ers are plittlng their hands Into the pockets of tbe very people who, during tbe summer months, not only support them but cheer for them and ll<mlM them.

Everybody In St. Lnuls and Kansas City known who they are, because their bosses haven’t hesi­tated to make their names public. Their case.s would be attended to automatically and promptly lf*the basebnll fans out there were to join In notifying Jhe manageroents of the two clubs that they would attend no games, next season, In which any of these players parti­cipated. '

The validity of the bank oom- atiaalORer’s position in this matter sippsars to us to be Onassallable. I t is a UtUe difficult to understand Bot only why a person who has no State whatever In a savings bank Should be Selected by Its corpora­tors to serve as a director of its affairs,- but why he should want to te selected and to give hla time to such work, and share In Its re­sponsibilities, unless from some special InteKst.

In some instances it la concejv- SUe that the non-depositor direc­tor might enjoy whatever of pres­tige attaches to the directorship, s r that he might be motivated by SB active concern for the well be­ing of the oommunlty and a de- dlre to have It provided with prop- Srfy conducted banking facilities. But that would be pretty close to Sheer altruism, which Is a fairly scaive attribute that doesn't frequently show up In financial drclea.

Much oftener, it la to be sus­pected, such directorships are un­derlain by tbe fact that tbs posi­tion adds to the personal standing, sad often to the financial credit of the otherwise dislntereatcd d lre^ ter.

For our part, it seems more rea- seaable to expect studious and sareful attention to the affairs of B savings bank from persona who U m their own money In it, than from outsiders who, if they have any nsoney, do not regard that hank, as a particularly good place to keep It. A director who does not keep a deposit in the bank

; srkich he helps to manage, wheth­e r be means to or not, conveys the tBVheatlon that while tbe bank BWjr te a, good enough thing for a|li«|o Bstaided folks it is not of Bportance to a smart fellow like

Mr. Ferry’s recommendation ap- to te Bsersly that there ba

L ost in th e ShuffleAm a nation wo are getting blase

or unable to concentrate for more than the briefest time or are un dergoing a sharp change In our notions of what Is Important—or aomething or ether, we know not what, that makes us act very dif­ferently from tbe way wa would I have acted In similar circum­stances say a quarter of a century •ffo-

A striking example Is the arriv­al of the City of Flint a t Balti­more on Saturday. A few weeks ago, and for a considerable num­ber of days, that ship was the central object of American thought Her adventures first as rescuer of the first sea victims of the war,^ then as captive of a Qerman warship and the startling and Intriguing chain of events In which she figured until finally shs sailed for home, constituted a saga oonoeming which an Im­mense amount not only of aym- pathy but ot curiosity was felt by the people of the nation.

I t might quite naturally have been anticipated that when the Flint came home the keen Intereat of a few weeks ago would have remained suffIclenUy alive to have automatically resulted In a spon­taneous outpouring of people to meet her; that she would have docked a t Philadelphia to tha cheers of as many of them as could have gotten near her; that even some sort of public reception would have been arranged for her officers and crew.

If there was anybody at the pier to meet her other than the roustabout who caught her hawser line and a reporter - and photog­rapher or two it appears to have been overlooked. 'The Flint might almost as well have been any old ship from any old place.

Perhaps It’s because events crowd each other ao fast that one loses Its significance In the shadow of others tripping over Its heels. ’But It does seem as though the Flint, after one of the most ex­citing and episodic voyages in the history of the American merchant marine. Immediately following her Athenla achievement, rated a bit more stir, on her Ntum, than she has made.

Dizzy ConscrvatiBinOne of the marked oddities of

the shifting political alignments la presented by Senator Qillette of Iowa. Senator Oillette is one of tbe “conservative” Democrats who couldn’t stand the radicalism of the New Deal and made him­self conspicuous In his opposition to Rooscveltian policies prior to the 1038 elections. He was one of the nine Mnators whom Mr. Roosevelt unsuccessfully attempt­ed to "purge” by defeating their renomlnatlon.

Now Senator Gillette Is out In advocacy of the Presidential nom­ination of Secretary Wallace, head of the Department of Agriculture, whose lopsided socialism In behalf of the money-crop farmers of the grain belt and the South is the most fantastic radicalism of which the New Deal has been guilty.

By Oasrga BaasNaw York, Jan. 26—For many

months I woudared what had b»- coma of tha ..foreigners a t Go­tham’s W orldl Fair whoaa coun­tries have since vanished In the bomb-flares of tha night. Before the selsura of Csechoalpvakla, a m u p of Ckechs arrived tera from Prague to attend their own Fair Pavilion. While they wera about their chores In New Tork, sudden­ly they discovered themselves to be men without a country. Never­theless, they opened their Pavil­ion, to keep alive their national spirit In a symboL

The Poles wers next. I used to visit their Pavilion often, for not only was their building one of the handsomest In the Foreign Area, but their restaurant was an Irre­sistible magnet.

Tbe staged tha most lavish meal on the Fair Grounds, of their own native cuisine a t such absurd tariffs, that I once asked a. head- waiter to explain it. ’’Good wUI,” he said, “we love on every meal. But our government takes the loss.”

He was a handsome and engag­ing fellow. I dined there one night In September and he was In a worried, confiding mood. “I re­ceived a mysterious cable from my mother In Warsaw,” he said, something Is going to happen. 1

can’t believe It will be war. I am sure Hitler doesn’t have endhgh nerve. But most of us hero are scftrcdt**

The next morning, the Invasion was under way and I did not see the young headwalter again. The

natlve-boi’n Yankee, they can be deprived of rights of cltlxenshlp for felonies, but not deported.

We have listened for a balf- dosen years to vitriolic outpour­ings in Congress against tbe most law-abiding aliens who happened to be here with the most peaceable intent, but not oven Senator Rey­nolds of North Carolina, most ra­bid allen-balter, has reached out to suggest an amendment to the law to crack down on the lads from the across the sea who go sour on the government after ducking Into the safety sons.

But the other ovonlng 1 ea- couiiterod my old friends again. They had opwmd a ’’Polish Restau­rant” on Fifty-Seventh Street, staffed by the aame exiled PoIm who were out on Flushing Mea­dows. But now they must be leas lavlab with their diapenaatlona. They no longer lose money on their clientele, but they do not profit by I t They break even. They would rather have it that way. It gives them something to do in a strange country which all of them passionately want to adopt.

Chlselinff Ball PlayersHere la something that some­

body can do aomething about without any need of calling on tbe law makers.

The somebody who can do the something is the great American baseball fan—one of the most typical and numeroua entities In tbe United States.

The something about which he can <V> something Is this:

A considerable number of big time baseball players who nuke their legal homes in Missouri, through oonnoction with the St. Louis Browns and the Kansas City Blues, all of them drawing jrearly aalariss ranging up to |8,000, are

Washington—T h ru iMturallsed citizens, accused with others of plot to overthrow the United States government, cannot be de­ported even if proved guilty.

The three, two Irish and one German In origin, were rounded up In New York by J. Edgar Hoover and his G-men amid a fanfare of publicity almost as fantastic as the nature of the plot against the government of which the 17 were accused.

The monvent an alien completes his citizenship ceremony, he be­comes forever immune to depor' tation except on one condition. Only If it is proved he obtained hla citizenship papers by fraud or deceit can be be deport^, no mat­ter how undesirable a citizen he may turn out to be.

’The 17 men. Including tbe three naturalized citizens, had an array of cans full of powder, rifles, am­munition, machine-gun belts and various Impedimenta which to­gether with other Infornutlon convinced G-man Hoover that they had In mind a plot so gigantic that it made ordinary revolutions look pale.

As a prelude to seizing the gov­ernment, they planned to blow up communication lines, said Hoovsr, to capture arsenals, to knock off a dozen congressmen as a sample of what they might do If they really got going. Moreover, said Hoover, they were mad a t a neighborhood theater which show­ed Russian-made films and were going to blow It up along with a Jewish newspaper.The Bridge Cbm

To a casual spectator it would appear that tbe main objective of becoming (ui American citizen would be to enjoy the sort of gov­ernment and opportunities that America offers. Yet there is no provision in the law which states that a naturalized citizen may be chucked back home If he tries to wreck the government he was pre­sumably, so desirous of enjoying.

It la pretty well established that an alien applicant for citizen­ship will' be rejected If he has Indicated a d ls i^ tio p to over­throw the United States govern­ment by force. Belonging to the Russian branch of the CommunlM party likely would be enough to bar a candidate for citizenship. That, a t least, was the test which Harry Bridges, west coast water­front labor leader, had to pass to escape deportation proceedings Lately Dehn Landis of Harvard Law school, sitting as examiner, cleared him of that charge. Pre­sumably be may now renew hla suit to become a citizen.May Take Away Rights

Yet along comes J. Edgar HoO' ver and tuma up a trio of natur­alized citizens to whom no such test can now be applied. They can be jailed If convict^ of conspiring :u use violence against tbe govern­ment. But the far more powerful menace of a possible dei^rtatlon could not act as a restraining In- fluenee.

Naturalised citizens can plot and conspire and Intrigue to their bsart’a content to upset the gov­ernment they pledged themselves to support without Jeopsrdlzlng thalr raaidanoa bare, lik e any

Nervousness is commonly pro­duced partly by mental or emo­tional causes, but In addition to these, there are certain physical causes capable of helping to In­duce nervousness, with Its varied assortment of symptoms.

Some of the possible physical causes Include eyestrain, hemoTT' holds, prolapsus and pelvic dis­orders. The patient suffering from eyestrain, for example, is likely to exhibit many of the symptoms of nervousness, which will fall to yield to treatnwnt until the eyes are properly fitted with glasses. Hemorrhoids, or plies, are also capable of Inducing marked ner­vous symptoms, which will not disappear until this physical cause is removed.

Prolapsus, or sagging of the abdominal organs. Is often produc­tive of noticeable nervous symp­toms, especially In women, be-

bladder gave me so muc'h pain that I sent a specimen of tbe kid­ney waste to my doctor. He said my kidneys were OK. Later I put aside a small specimen and let It remain all night. In the morn­ing there was a sediment—very thick. Please let me know what to do. I am better but wish your opinion.”

Answer: Without having seen the report on the first urinalysis It is somewhat difficult to ^ve definite advice. A tutbld sediment usually indicates an increase in mucus, phosphates, or leucocytes. The phosphates are often produc­ed when there la bladder Inflam­mation, or cystitis, or when there la an obstruction, in tbe urinary tract. Inasmuch as you state that you have experienced consider­able bladder pain, it is likely that In your case the sediment Is the result of Inflammation of the blad­der. Since jrou have already con­sulted your doctor about your symtoms, the best plan Is to re­turn tp him for such further ad­vice a ^ e may wish to give at this time, ’hie fact that you feel bet ter la a hopeful Indication.

would like very much to know what I can do for bolls and stys.'

Answer: I suggest that you send for my articles on these subjects, ns they will provide you with a great deal more Information than I am able to supply In a short an­swer. Please address your letter to me in care of this newspaper, enclosing a large, self-addressed, stamped envelope.

Washington, -'Jan. 36.—(ff) —Democratic and Republican leaders Rtb ssttllng down to the detailed work of arranging their national conventions, amid talk of stream­lining these complicated meetings a t which presidential nominees are chosen.

Senator Bridges (R-NH), who has shown Interest In obtaining the Republican nomination, wrote Chairman ' John Hamilton today proposing that Republicans abolish the usual “lengthy nominating speeches” in drder to quicken the convention pace.

He suggested that a time limit be set for these addresses, and that the number of seconding speeches be curtailed. He also ad­vocated that all candidates whose names are placed before the con­vention address the delegates In person.

Might Bore UsteoersInasmuch as the convention ses­

sions usually are broadcast na­tionally, party officials are display­ing eagerness to keep the proceed­ings moving rapidly. A slow and Involved program, they point out, might bore radio listeners.

Democratic leaders already are arriving in Washington to confer with President Roosevelt on con­vention plans In advance of the party's national committee meet­ing here next Monday. Tha com­mittee ordinarily decides the date and place for the convention, but It may turn over the job to a sub­committee.

The Republican committee will meet here Feb. 16, and the Demo­crats may try to delay making their arrangements until after that time.

Among other week-end political developments were:

President Roosevelt, in discussing possible Denoocratlc ticket combi­nations with White House callers, is reported to have listed Mayor F. H. LaGuardIa of New- Tork as a vice presidential possibility. The president. It was emphasized, has not indicated his own opinion.

Wheeler Second Choice Senator Norris (Ind-Neb), who

favors a third term for Mr. Roose­velt, said that If the chief execu­tive la not a candidate, he would support Senator Wheeler (D- Mont).

Senator Gillette (D-Iowa) pro­posed that his state’s Democratic delegation be pledged to Secretary Wallace as a “favorite son” candi­date in the interest of party har mony.

Headquarters of Tliomas E. Dewey In New York announced that the district attorney would enter the pmsidentlal preference primary In uUnola April 9.

cause of the pressure of the sag­ging organs upon the delicate nerves of the pelvic region.

While the symptoms complained of by a group of nervous patients are so many and varied that they would fill a large book, one of tbe most prominent symptoms gener­ally mentioned la a tired feeling. These patients that complain of feeling tired or worn out after light activity, or may say they are tired oh worn out Mter a night’s rest. This feeling of fatigue la al­most universally found among pa­tients seeking relief from nervous­ness.

Other common symptoms are In- aomnis or the Inability to sleep, headache, shifting aches and pains In the muscles, trembling of the legs, shortness of breath, coldness of the hands and feet, excessive perspiration which Is especially likely to cause the hands to sweat during excitement or strain, and a rapid beating or pounding of the heart.

In addition, there may be that aenae of Inner dtoturbance best de­scribed by the ^ p u la r term, ‘'jit­tery.” , /

One point generally not under­stood by the nervous patient la that hla nerves are strong, juat as scrohg as th o ^ of afiyone else. There is no evidence to believe that the nervous patient la auf ferlng In any way from “worn- out” nerves. 'The nerves of the neu­rasthenic are just as atrong, are In just aa good working condition, a., the nerves of the person un­troubled by a nervous disturbance. Let you who are “bundles of nerves” take heart from this— your nerves are strong,- healthy. Intact.

Within this period are filed annually mlUlona of Individual Ineome-Ux retuma, a larga propor­tion of which report Income subject to the tax. The latter contain considerahle percentage of errors, which U uncorrected by tbe audit would result to tbe disadvantage of the taxpayer. Many are errors of computation easily discovered on the face at the return, which usu­ally la accomiMuiled by a payment of more the amount at tax due.

The writers, as a rule, are no thoroughly informed and present tbeir subjects In such concise form, the Herald readers enjoy the priv­ilege of obtaining conriderable ac­curate knowledge, regarding Im­portant problems of the day, all In a brief apace of time.

Many Individuals are so rushed by a multitude df engagements they hardly have time for a sum­mary of radio news, which partly explains why the reading public baa ao little understanding of con- dltlonz exltUng In our State Hoa- pltaJa and other humane institu tions, for the average newapaper doesn’t stand much cliance with the person too rushed for even the ratUo current events. From my hezrt. I thank the Herald for the editorial last evening concerning the Norwich Hospital. Your hon esty, eamestneaa and desire to .serve the unfortunate was evident In every line of the article, gardless of money, influence and prestige.

I do not know Dr. Waterman personally and only judge hts abil­ity by thv many aplendld results obtained In hit Hospitol during tbe past few years. IxAig ago our SUte HosplUls were over crowded and badly handicapped by lack.of sufficient state funds. Surely th f average citizen must realise hawt the number of nervous and mental Invalids haa Increased during our long period of acute financial, de­pression and the general public must appreciate the necessity of providing better care and trea t meat for tboae persona. Buffering from sick mlnda and sick nerves Why blame Dr. Waterman because Connecticut ta Indifferent to the needs of our State HoeplUla.

Does anyone know how many families have a mental invalid at Norwich ?

Do you know how soon some member of your family m ay. be sent there? No one la Immuna and richas take wings.

I have alwaya suffered from nervous exhaustion and have bad two or three bad nervoua break­downs since 1 was thirty.

So I know from actual CKperi- aaoa aomething of what t t e pa­tients eoifinad within t te ernlla at our mantal hozpitala aie suffering. I, also, know tha way tan t alwaya easy for the people' employed In these places, jret the majority of doctors and nurses and attendants give generously of their aWII and understanding sympathy, day and night, year In and year out. We have fine private and public Insti­tutions for the treatment of this special class of invalids. Our great­est need is Instruction of the pub­lic.

Does tha average clUsen want to help today or d ^ te prefer to have bis children bear tbe ever- increasing burden of suffering end taxation 7 ^

YESTERDAY! Dan practically kidnaps Marie, tskea her to lA- rue's for cocktails. She (inds her­self strangely attracted to this nnpredictable young man. When she etarto home te Insiste upon accompanying her.

CHAPTER VIBat La Porte put down his pipe

and reached for his hat."I hear strange noises on the

dock.” he told hla wife.“You’re always hearing funny

sounds,” she protested. "First you s sped Tommy Ryan and now I don’t know what you Imagine.”

He growled. "I still suspect Tommy Ryan. Jerry McGuire Up­ped me off.”

BhtiffUng across the Unpleum- covered floor, he lifted the hatch­way. "What time Is Marie com­ing?” Hla voice began fading as his bead disappeared through the hatchway.

"About 7. I t’s half-post five.” Mrs. La Porte stepped toward the kitchen. "What do you want for supper?" ->

^ t never heard the quutlon. He was too occupied by another problem. A shadowy group of fig­ures swarmed about three trucks ;^ k e d close to a dsrk-bodled large. Aa Bat peered through the growing twilight, tbe figures re­solved themselves into the forms of men. The only two he recog­nized were Tommy and a fellow named Derry, who pinch-bit as pilot on motor bargez. If there was one thing Bat hated worse than a truck. It was a motor barge.

Bat let out a yell and cleared the distance between the deck of the Molly and the dock with one leap.

What stuff la this that you cowards are loading?” he scream­ed. “I say cowards and I mean It. You watt till dark to do your dirty work.”

He moved menacingly toward the trucks, flats clenched. Tommy cropped a box be bad been lifting from a truck.

“It's no use. Bat,” be said, not unkindly. “You’re outnumbered. If you’d gone a little easier on me last night, I might not have done this."

Bat’s faea twisted with anger. 'You’re ateallng the cargo meant

for my boat tomorrow.”Tommy spoke up sharply. “Go

easy on that word ’ateallng.’ I pre­fer shifting. We’re trucking It from the West Side. The guys that oidered the stuff will get It a lot quicker than If you’d totejl It for them.”

Bat sprang at Tommy. “You try to steal my cargo the way you would my daughter."

The truckman dodged him. Careful, Bat. I haven’t lost my

temper y e t I might be mean If did.” He half-turned toward the sock he had put down, then stop­ped. This cargo of phosphate means a lot to you, doesn’t It?”

Bat shrugged hla shoulders. ’’What do my private feelings count.for?” Hla continued antag­onism was apparent

Only this.” Tommy spoke eag­erly. “I’ll call the fellows off thla deal and let you pack the phos­phate on tbe Molly if you’ll bury the past and give Marie’n me your blearing.”

"Are you out of your mind?” ahrieted. B a t "The fellow doean’t live who’s good enough for my Murle. r d rather aee her dead than IDftnl6d to 3TOU.*’

Lowering bis bead, buU-Ilke, be grabbed Tommy round tbe middle and prepared to throw him bodily off the dock.

Tommy gave a yeU. The other nun dropped their loads and ran towards tha two, shouting.• • •

The noise of tbe fight had aroused other barge people. Heads pokdd out of hatchways from boats on both rides of tbe dock.

“Bat La Porte needs help,” cried a big Irishman on a barge nearsBt the fray. *lt’a them damn­ed truckmen again.”

’’And they’re ateallng my cargo and trying to load It on a pirate

the battle this evening.Tommy, struggling to hla feeL r

as Bat flung him to the ground,’’* pui^hls fingers to his tips Md gave a shrill whistle. What seemed to Bat an army of truckmen closed In on Pier 6 from South Street. The men carried barrel staves and they swung them right and left. Women looked out of the barge cabin windows and screamed. Children woke up and cried. In the growing darkness It become In­creasingly difficult to*aee who wa hitting whom.

In the confusion Tommy and men finished loading the plral barKc. It slipped silently out while 1 Bat and the other bargemen were still fighting. Bat turned In time to aee Its black hulk disappear down the river under its own power.

“We’re all fools,” he bellowed. “They finished loading that cargo while we were fighting these IdloU.”

Bat prepared to fling a t them e'-eiy word of abuse be knew in BVench aa well as English. But before he could form a single phrase, the truckers fled down South Street. The cause was ap­parent. A police siren shrieked. For a few momenta It seemed to be heading straight for Pier 6, then it grew fainter and finally faded entirely.

Bat felt of his left eye. I t was swollen shut. He lumbered teward the Molly. If It weren’t for his black eye he might have recog­nized Marie turning Into the pier froir South Street He might have wondered who the fellow was with her. He also might have wondered why she was arguing with him.

Tommy Ryan, feeling his bruises In the shadow of on elnpty truck, didn’t wonder, he asked.

Who’s your boy friend, Ma­rie?” he Inquired, strolling casual­ly toward the pair as they paused under the arc-light.

Dan grabbed te r by both arms. 'Are you this fellow's girl?’’

Marie turned her back on Tom­my. “Pleaae go, I beg you,” she pleaded with Dan. ’T m afraid you’ll be hurt.”*

Tommy, hands In his pockets and cap pulled down over bis,, eyes, stood silently by, a rinlster.l -figure In the baU-llght from above.

Dan gripped Marie’s arm till she winced. “Do you belong to this man?’’

No, but fpr God’s sake go,” she begged. _

"Leave this girt alone,” Dan said, turning to Tommy, "and that goes for all time. I know you won’t mind.”

He spoke as one accustomed to giving orders.

But I do mind.” Tommy**! tones bad an edge. ”I take orders^ from no one, lewt of all from a guy like you.”

He swung a fist upward. "Tommy,” Marie screamed.

"You’re acting like a caveman.” Dan dodged and laughed. ”I

don’t fight before ladles. See you later.” • • •

Half-hysterical. Marie caught Dan by the hand and led him to­ward Oie Molly, with but one Idea in mind, to get him out at Tom- niy’s reach.

"Here’s my home,” ete iald. "Will you come aboard and meet my people?”

"Don’t be a ninny, that's what rv e been pleading with yoti to do all evening.”

Tbe tide was going out and the barge was far below the dock level. Marie jumped to the Molljrs deck. Dan followed her toward the hatchway. I t was shoved back. Bat’a head appeared In the open­ing.

“I’ve got company, pop," Marie called.

Bat turned one eye on Dan. HH other eye was swollen shut. “Bring him In and le f t look him over.”

As Dan and Marie dlsap. down the hatchway with - Bat Tommy Ryan left the ahelterina truck and walked alowly toward the Baptiste terge.

Formal Complaints Are Filed Against Priest by Jewish ^m m ittee.

New York, . Jan. 29.—W — The Rev. Charles E. Coughlin has been marked for Invcetlgation “In due course” by the Department, of Jus­tice following the filing of formal complaints against the Michigan radio priest by the Jewish Peoples Committee.

This was confirmed by O. John Rogge, assistant U. S. attomsy general, before be left last night for Minneapolis and Chicago to gather additional evidence In a widening inquiry stemming from the arrest of 17 Christian Front members here on charges of sedi­tious con^lracy to overthrow ths government.

Father Coughlin, in his regular Sunday broadcast from Detroit, said he would welcome ‘’with gra- clousnesa” an investigation of his activities.

Rogge la the 36-year-old prose­cutor who recently won convictions of several Louisiana politicians on mail fraud charges and who waa hustled here—before hla Loulriana work was finished—to bolster the govemisent'B case against the 17 held in lieu of 550,000 tell each.

Scoff At AlmsThe small size and crudity of the

“arsenal’’ they are accused of cach­ing, with revolutionary Intent,

' moved some critics— IncludingMayor LaGuardIa and Father Coughlin himself—to scoff a t the aims and ambitions the govern­ment attributed to them in a city having 18,000 well-armed police. But FBI Chief J. Edgar Hoover countered with the remark that Russia was overthrown by 23 men, and the Department of Justice came up with an ace prosecutor for the climax of a case opened by Supreme Court Justice Frank Mur­phy last August, when Murphy waa attorney general.

Rogge, the “trouble-shooter” prosecutor, declined to discuss the nature of the accusations made by the Jewish organization against Father Coughlin. “They will be Investigated in due course,” he said.

The priest told Us radio audi­ence yesterday It had been "my life’s ambition to contribute a share" to protecting America’s constitution and Its “Christian heritage.”

Nature Of Oonifereiioea SecretRogge, who was assigned here

by Attorney General Robert Jack- son, said he would return to New York Wednesday from the mid­west after conferring with U. S. attorneys In Minneapolis and Chi­cago. The nature of those con­ferences was not disclosed.

Two weeks ago, following the arrest of the 17 alleged plotters,

. the MlcUgan priest Issued a -state­ment denying an , affiliation with tbe Christian Front to.wUch they belonged and said he “roimdly dls. avow ^ It.” /

A week latef he described him' self as “a . friend of the accused,’ and continued: ” I did not belong to any unit of the Christian Front; nevertheless I do not disassociate myself from that movement.”

Father Coughlin, who has been accused by Jewish groups of atlr-

- ring racial prejudice, concluded by u r^n g bis listeners to support “A Christian front” for the purpose of safeguarding American liberties

■ and “Christian democracy’’ as op- ' posed to a “naturalistic democ'

racy.” »The 17 under arrest, accused by

Hoover of plotting to set up a Jew-balting dictatorship in the United States, are liable, if con' victed, to 6-year prison sentences and 55,000 fines each.

On the baala of Finnish advices from the wilderness of snow and lea north of Lake Ladoga, the Russian offensive aimed at Fin­land's main defenses on the Isth­mus, or Mannerhelm, line, ap­peared to be faltering and shaping Into a retreat with extremely heavy losses.

Bows Before Windham In Fast Clash,\36^2^

Clarkemen Put Up Hero­ic Fight but Unbeaten Visitors Show Too Much Power to Earn 9th Straight Victory.

cage performance* flashed here: thUseason, Windham High of WU- this season, Windham High of Wil- on Manchester High before some 1700 fans at the State Armory Saturday night to run It* unde­feated record to nipe consecutive victories. It w u the sixth loa* In twelve start* for the Clarkemen and make* it necessary for them to whip both Meriden and East Hartford to qualify for tbeVState Class A tourney at New Hayen in March.

Flay. Like Ctaamploa*Windham showed to far better

advantage in It* appearance here than it did In gaining a 33-26 tri­umph at the Thread City earlier In the season. Speed, aggreasiveneB* and fighting spirit were combined with sensational shooting and ■nappy passing and Coach Tom Callahan's rangy charges really looked like champions In the mak­ing.

Manchester, with its reserves stealing the limelight from the regulars, made > valiant attempt to stop the unbeaten march of the Invaders but every time the CHarkemen threatened to forge tq the front Windham unleashed ,4

. flurry of baskets that swiftly wid­ened the gap again. From the opening whistle, the rival* set a dizzy pace and maintained It through a bang-up encounter that was almost as thrilling and excit­ing as the 27-25 victory by which Bristol extended Its winning streak to 1 straight the week before.

Reserve* Stand OutWindham’s advantage was neyer

greater than eight points and Man­chester came within one point of tying the count late in the third quarter only to have the visitors rally for a 25-21 margin at the end of the period. Manchester’s starters failed to tally from the floor In the cqiening quarter and trailed by 8-1 when the reservea took over. The latter battled tooth and nail against both Wind­ham’* flrat and oecond teams and fought them to a 10-all standoff that left Windham with an 18-11 edge at halftime.

With Dancosae and Cole rifling the mesh twice each and Murdock accounting for one hoop, the Red and White reserves turned on a rip-snorting brand of ball that ahaved Windham'* lead to 14-11 but the local threat faded as couple of basket* in the closing minutes gave Windham Its seven- point bulge at intermission. Stan Sorota, Charlie Chrlstidone and Nate Rosen paced the WindhamonslaughL

Alaiost Close H m OspEvidently shamed by the ster­

ling play of the reaerves, Manches-

help aa Manchester loet the bui time and time again on poor passes that oaljed out of bounds.

The final period wasn't very old before Coach Will (Jlarke had yanked all his reserves save Blan­chard and ths lattsr, aided by Dancosss, Ctols, Klcinscbmidt and Conn, launched another heroic spurt that, whittled Windham's lead to 26-28 and again to 81-89 but in the closing minute of play Windham went into action on all cylinders and stowed the game away.

AU of Manchester’e reserves per­formed superbly with Dancosae, Cede and Kleuischmldt a* the stand outs while Blanchard went best for ths rwulara.

McCluskey 5th at Boston As Rice Upsets Don Lash

(Special to 'ilM Herald) ♦speaker six times at the Metropol-Boston, Jan. 29.—(X>)—Four ex-'

steam out of the veteran Joe Mc- Cluakey, former Fordham dis­tance star, in the Leo Larrivee two-mlle special in the Prout games Saturday night with the re­sult that he wound up In la st, place. It waa not McOuskey's fault that he trailed the field for be was always ahead of Bill At­kinson but that Tuft* runner dropped out of the *tx-man field at the mile distance.

As Is bis babit McCluskey start- | son Square Garden Saturday ed out well up front, for he trail­ed only Don Lasb, the Indoor, rec­ord holder, for the first five lajJ* and then jumped into a five yaid lead over that Indiana policeman.Joe led the parade for two turns about the Oardbn track and then the pace began to tell on him.

He dropped back to second, then third, and when Lash, who had re­gain^ the lead, covelred the first mil* In 4.31.8 McOUskey was fourth having been phased by Gregory Rice, the eventual winner and Forest Efaw pf SUUwater,Okla. Joe was about 40 yards be­hind Rice at the mile and a half point, fifth and loat, for Walter Mehl of Wisconsin, had moved ahead of him and Atkinson had dropped out.

McCluskey hopelessly out of the race at that point, plodded the last five laps as Rice and Lash put on their stirring drive for vic­tory. which the former gained by a 20 yards margin In the splendid time of 9:01.7, only 3.7 second* slower than the world record the Indiana cop set on that same track three years ago.

New York. Jan. 29—(FV- Those familiar, exciting words ’’ . .which creates a new meet record were barked through the loud-

itan senior Indobr championships : in Brooklyn.I” In Boston at th* Prout games,; a bowling crowd of 10,000 was ; treated to the fastest indoor mile I of the year, a 4:10.3 effort by ' Chuck Fenske; an excellent 9:01.7 , two-mlle by Greg'' Rice of Notre ' Dame and a smsational 2:13.9 drive tn the l.pdo by Wayne Ride­out.

‘there’s jrbur proof the Indoor track seaoon has hit its stride, spd that the MUlrose game* In Madl-

wlllbe as'pulse-tingling as ever, de­spite the flare-up between the Me­tropolitan A. A. U. and Its parent body.

As everyone who runs and reads must know by now, tbrse members of New York’s 69th Regiment A. A.—national champion Charlie Beetham, Hal Cjagle and Howie Borck—chose the Prout games to the "Met” championships Satur­day night; were denied travel per­mits, but went anyway, and now can’t compete In the MUlrose games. But the MUlrose Is still a mighty magnet for fans and runners alike.

Look at the lineup for the Wan- amaker mile. Two major indoor mile race* have been won, and Glenn Cunningham, the master,' hun ’t won cither. But he will g ^ a chance at hl.s conquerors. Gene Venske and Chuck Fenske, Saturday. Tbet would be enough to make It th* mile of the season, even If It didn’t have Archie San Romani, the Sugar Bowl winner; California’s Lou ZamperinI and big Les MacMItchell of N. Y. U.

Sei* Record for Title Match with 131-12 Average; Wins by 20 Pins for Edge o f 102.Charlie Kebart successfully de­

fended the tou-n bowling cham­pionship he's held for the past dec­ade when he turned back the chal­lenge of Maurice (torrentl In, the last half of their 30-gam* total pinfall match at the Charter Oak alleys Satunlay afternoon, and In so doing he created what Is be­lieved to be a record for a lo<!iri title match when be compiled the nifty average of 131.13 for the rout*.

Failed to Hold PaeeAs was to be expected, the ri­

vals failed to equal their brilliant form of the previous week when Kebart exploded the little maples for an average of 140.3 and Oor- ranti had 132 even. In the second half the veteran champion slipped to 123 and his opponent turn^ In 121 as Kebart won the last ten games by 20 pins for a total ad­vantage of 102 pins. Ctorrentl's average waa 126.

Kebart won six out of th* first ten games as he piled up a margin o f 82 pins but Saturday be cap­tured seven out of the ten games and was held to a 20-pin edge, an. Indication of how closely matched the rjvals were over the final stretch. Correnti again emerged with high single os he twice roll­ed 188 while Kebart’s beat efforts were a pair of 137's. High alqgie for the match went to Correnti with 175.

Crowd See* MatchA packed gallery witnessed Sat­

urday’s match and, saw Kebart's cool steadiness overcome the youthful challenger, who hSd con­stant difficulty with his speedy first ball and foundered In a flood of bad breaks and repeated chopa. Kebart's delivery possesses only moderate speed but his control is magnificent and he’s always calm and cool In every situation. Cor­renti la faster and more colorful but seemed to work harder than the champion with poorer results.

Correnti topped 16 pins off Ke- bsrt's lead In the opening game as he rolled 116 to his opponent’s weak 101 but the "old warhone

polished lanes” came bach :e th* next tbre* games In ion by four, one and six

pins respectively, as he hit 180, 126 and 118.

Correnti Hits Peak Correnti reached hla peak In

th* fifth and tmerged on top by thraa pins with 188. Ho collected four marks in a row and led by 25 pins In the fifth frame but Ke­bart staged a superb rally and re­duced hla deficit, to a negligible figure. At th* end of thla gam* Correnti enjoyed a allm savsn-pln lead at the halfway mark but tha champ forged ahead tn tha sixth as he knocked off 187 td.Oorrentl’s 109 and,he just about Sswed up the match In the seventh as the challenger slumped to 100 for hto lowest slngto whito Kebart hit 115.

That pul Kebart 118 plus up for 17 games and with only three more left It was all over but tbs ohouUng. He won ‘ the eighth by three pins and ths ninth by two ■sd hto lead waa 128. Oorrentt re­turned to form la tho tanth and again shot out four ouecssriva marks to sbavs 21 pins off Ke­bart's margin iwith 18S to 117.

First Taste of Pra In the four years that the PA's

have played the court game, they never ran up against a classier ag­gregation than the Ware Pros. However, the Amerks, playlag by pro rules for th* first tlmo In their court career, gave a good account of themeelvea under the rircum- riancea. The War* aggregation, having played the pro gam* before, got tto jump on the local ebampa and led all the way and for a while It looked as if thsy w«re going to mske’a runaway of the tussls. But the PA'S once getting on to the game under thto system, began to give the Ware outfit plenty of competton.

This Ware comblna to none other than Norton Abrarivso of Worcester, Mass., a leading ama­teur team tn the Bay Stats. They play every Saturday at Ware under the name of the Ware Proa under pro nilea Playing, flv* nights a week they hold vlotories over such leading taams as the Holyoka Hur­ricanes, the Danbury Guards, whom they beat by thirty pointa, the West Haven Red Devils, whom they beat by eighteen points .and the Paterson Pros. Thus It can bo seen thes* Ware players certainly know th* gam*.

Fund Stir-Up^vernor Baldwin in Letter to Selertmen Sayg Ail Is in Order.

Mopchesten In compMy with ovor 100 ether Connecticut towiia, boa today secured from Qovemor Raymond E. Baldwin complete egoneratlbn from a charge of mU- Ufi# of highway funds, brought lost foil In certain quarters which al­leged that overlapping state and federal grants for roadbuilding hod resulted in the accumulation of surpluses which were being, used for other than highway o w structlon. An Investigation whs ordered, with the result that noth­ing Irregular was disclosed In the practices of any of the Involved towns.

The letter sent out by Governor Baldwin, it Is Indlcstfifl, la the final word In ths mattu.

Oovemor Bsl(}wn wrote select­men in the stole that he is “very happy" the recent inquiry into federal and'atate road grants es­tablished that "everything Is In order” Ih the $10,000,000 program started In 1933 with PWA assist­ance.

The LetterThe governor’s letter sold: " I

am forwarding to you a copy of the report of the special commit­tee appointed hy the governor to otudy the federal-state grants for construction of highways In the state. \

••The committee made a very thorough study and I am happy to say, has reported the full facts, finding everything In order. Thus there has been settled, I hope, any question that might arise in the future concerning these grants.”

The Inquiry was undertaken last October at the govemor'a direc­tion to determine whether there had been "any misuse" of funds as a result of the fact that Fed­eral and state laws caused high­way projects undertaken by the state with PWA aid to be over-fi­nanced with resulting "profits" to the towns.

A committee of five state offi­cials reported aome weeks ago to the govenWr that the situation hod been handled In accordance with law and that contracts In some cooes expressly entitled towns to use say surplus. In many cases, the committee reported, extra costs entailed in the dual projects absorbed any surplus and in some Instances towns actually spent more than they received.

There was a man who Uvsd bythe side of the road and sold hotdogs. '

He was bard of hearing so he h«fl no radio. He was troubled with his eyea so he read no news­papers. '

But he sold good hot dogs. He w-aa a firm believer In mlvertislng so he put up signs along the hlgh- way advertlsins the merit* of his hot dogs, and he atood by the side of the road and cried: “Buy a hot dng, muter!"

And the people bought.He increased bis meat and bun

orders. He bought a bigger stove to take care of hla Increasing trade. Finally business became so good that he had his son come home from the city to help hins.

Then something happened. Hla son said:

"Father, haven’t you been lis­tening to the radio ?. Haven't you been "heading the newspapers? Thcr# U a big depression on. There Is a war in Europe. The domestic situation la worse. Everything has Vone to pot! Things are terrible!!

Whereupon the father thought:"Well, my son has been to col­

lege. He haa lived in the city with big business men. He reads the papers and listena to tile radio. He ought to know."

So the father cut down on his bun and meat order, curtailed his advertialng and no longer bother­ed to stand by the highway and call out his wares. His sales fell off almost every night. He sold to his boy;

“You were right, son, we are certainly In the middle of a great depression.”
