Arch Street Man Surprised t Learn There Is a Limit “Certainly I struck her, I have a right to knock my wife down and the law allows me even greater leeway, in view of conditions such as exist in my declared Henry Minderlein of 464 Arch street to Judge John H. Kirkham in police court today when arraigned for a brutal assault upon Mrs .Minderlein Monday at their home and the home of a neighbor, tg which the later fled for protection. e ac- cused persisted in his attempt to do all of the talking in connection with his case despite efforts of Judge Kirk- ham, Prosecuting Attorney George W. Klett, Mrs. Minderlein and court offi- cers to get a word in edgeways. Mrs. Minderlein agreed with Henry that he struck her, had struck her on nu- merous occasions, kicked her and struck her over the head with a whiskey flask. “But it is the last time,” she affirmed as she glanced at Henry with deflant eyes. Henry was told that his caveman methods are not proper in polite society, can not be countenanced and will be dealt with severely, if he does not reform. Be- cause of their three children, Mr. and Mrs. Minderlein were advised to try and live together in harmony, provide for their children and keep out of the courts. The former was given 30 days in jail and turned over to the super- vision of Probation Officer Edward C. Connolly pending his good behavior. “Why should’t' I be much vexed,” Henry asked, “when she goes out night after night to the movies and other theaters and leaves me at home to take care of the chifldren ” He continued by saying that she recently remained away all night and, when she appeared at home about 7 the next morning, said she had been to a party at the home of a friend, sald party not breaking up until about 3 o'clock that morning. The accused declared that he had asked the ice man the next morning relative to his wife’s being at'the party and was told that she was not at the place she claithed to have been. He expressed the belief that this was sufficient ground for some drastic action. Fur- ther clailms were made by him that she had got him in debt so deep that he would never be able to ‘“get out ,of the obligation: Must Pay Up Old Fine. Unless John Winko of 88 Tremont street pays $3, the balance remaining of the fine imposed March 10 for as- sault, he will have to work out that amount’in jail. Arraigned for viola- tion of probation, it was testified that he shows a marked disinclination to work and holds a Jjob only long enough to get sufficent money to buy liquor: Probation was revoked, ‘much to the apparent disgust of thé ac- cused. Upon his announcement that he is anxious and willing to live with his wife and support her, Frank Graham of Plainville was put under probation for six months. He was arrested ‘in Plainville yesterday by Constable Ma- rino for the local authorities upon a charge of non-support. For the purpose of having the deal- er from whom ha is alleged to have rented the car in court, hearing of charges against Frank Morgan of 34 Chestnut street, aFrtford. alleged to have operated a motor vehicle without an operator’'s Hcense and minus prop- er rear license number marker, was continued until Saturday. Morgan was summoned by Traffic Supervisor | Clarence Lamphere. He explained this morning that he hired the car from a Hartford dealet and supposed that it was properly equipped with lcense i markers. Prosecuting Attorney Klett asked for the continuance on the ground that the dealer is out of the state and will not be available before Saturday. EILKS' MINSTRELS REHEARSE.

Meyers' bill, authorizing him to order by praclamation the registration of all aliens he may desig- nate. The issuance of the proclama- tion, however, will be withheld by the governor until the Federal authori- ties approve the plan. The state ad- ministration™® anxious to aveid any possible canfiict with the plans of the war department for the restriction of the movement of aliens. The registration measures became law after a conference of the gover- nor, Adjutant General Stotesbury and Mr. Meyer, with representatives of the New York police department before ! them. The point was raised that if the state went ahead with the pro- gram set forth in the bill the Wash- ington authorities might not approve, Governor Whitman is now in com- munication with the Federal authori- ties to settle that difficulty. “Mean- | while forms have been prepared for : printing and distribution to the police throughout the state for their use in registering aliens in the event that the governor may deem it proper to proceed under the authority af the Meyers bill. These faorms provide for complete intelligence of the move- ments of aliens, subject to the re- quirements of the governor's proc- lamation. The principal features of the plan, adapted from the English system, are: Immediately after the proclamation | all aliens designated by the governor must present themselves at the near- | est palice precinct in cities and at the county clerk’s office in other parts of | the state. Thelr identification will be tabulated ,and each will receive a card ‘or booklet with a photograph at- tached for future reference. The alien’s application for this card must be accompanied by references of two citizens of the United States and resi- dents of New York state. It is also provided that every time an alien subject to the registration moves out of the jurisdiction of the police of his residence, he must get the consent of the local police and must present him- selt for registration at his destina- tion within twenty-four hours after his arrival. Senator Elton R. Brown, majority leader of the senate, last night pro- posed a joint committee of senators and assemblymen to provide for im- mediate legislative action on war measures that may be necessary after the adjournment or recess of the legislature.
