BOOZE CONSPIRACY - TRIAL PROEEDING Hoarig in New Haven Punetu- ated by Arguments New Haven, April 6.~ Saul Grill, general enforcement agent of Wash- Ington, was rigidly cross-cxamined by counsel for the defense in the gov- crnment's case against Edward Deri- gibus and four others for alleged cons spiracy, in' the federal court today. He was particularly questioned as to testimony he gave hefore the U, 8. commiesioner and at times counsel demanded' that he explain alleged dif- ferences between his testimony in that liearing and in the present trial. Yesterday counsel asked that con- spivgey. charges “be . dismissed but Judge Harlan'H. Howe denied a mo- tion to that effeet, ’ How He Worked Case Counsel tried to show that Grill had been engaged in the liquor business, Grill admitted that the attion of one “Captain Charlie' Scandalus to com- plete a sale of liquor were a pretence and that Grill had Scandalus arrested at the same time the defendants were arrested as part of the plan, Grill objected to counsel calling the arrest a_ “scheme” or ‘plan” but accepted the courfs definition of it as a part of a ‘“program.’” ‘Counsel asked Grill if his home was New York and Dist. Attorney Cghen objected to the question as infmaterial. Counsel had argument with Mr, Cohen over the contention of the latter, that to tell the address] wpuld be contrary to good public policy and declared that the point in law was’ extraordinary. The court agreed with defendant's counsel that . he,never had- heard of such a point and ordered the witness to answer. Tells His Address Grill said he lived at 31 West 117th street, New York city, The court reprimanded the witness for not giv- irg direct answers-to questions. Grill gaid he had never been connected with the liquor business. This point and as to his employment for several years was gone into at length. As to variance with previous testimony Grill'said he may have made slips be- cause he was mentally tired. During the forenoon not much ‘ headwgy was made on the. direct charge of conspiracy to violate the Volstead act by sale of 100 harrels of - alcohol. ~BOY BALL PLAYER KILLED Belton, Tex., April 6.—William Ad- dison Watson, Jr., 11 year old catcher for a vacant lot team, was instantly killed yesterday by a foul tip whicn hit him over the heart. BUSY BIDDER BUYS A BIRD BOX BOY BUILT (Continued from First Page) company was reported to have gone 100 per cent in. pledges. James 8. North, director of the drive, explained about tomorrow be- ing “Dime Day,"” an account of which 1s carried in another column, In reply to &' request from W, C, French, prin- cipal of the Central Junior High that his school be permitted to do something to help, Mr. North sald the banks were glven to children the ages of 9 to 12 only, Mr. French still in- sisted that, with the permission of the school authorities, his school wanted to heip do something for the drive and wag advised that some method would be divised whereby this could be done. Mr. Krench offered, if the proper officials would, get permission from the school department, to place a box In'each room for contributions. People ‘today are living in concen- trie circles, according to Rev., Samuel E. ‘Fiske, of Berlin. who was the speaker of the day, Kight centuries héfore the. Christlan era, Mr. Fiske eaid, a great prophet predicted that the time would come when every man would speak Kkindly of his ncighbor. He sald the prophet had a vision of a time.when men would substitute unseMshness and zeal for the good of the community instead of the sordid selfishness and personal ambitions of the world. While he sald we have not vet achieved that goal we are on the way and New Britain in its com- munity drive has caught something of the spirit of the vision of the ancient prophet, He said; the average person lives within a‘&ia)! ciefe representing his home life,” Which” {s" within a larger circle of social life and friendship. Outside of this circle is the larger circle of business and community in- terests. He said the ideal life is that of the man who not only realizes his obligations and duties to those of the inner circle but also of the outer cir- cles and his neighbors in general, He concluded by adding that the work of supporting the United Com- munity corporation is not charity, but simply fulfillment of that vision when things shall be less selfish and an en- argement of the characters of the people. Tomorrow will be the.last luncheon, Mr, North announced today that the drive will remain open until the $50,- 000- is obtained, but that luncheons would cease tomorrow. The workers were entertained with a solo today by Mrs. Charles Bern- stein. Among the mourners at a recent funeral in the Isle of Wight was the dead man's pony. | ————————— Churter No. 1184, BRITAIN, IN THE STATE Tteserve Distriet Nv, 1. NATIONAT, BANK AT NEW .

Pajewskl of the Nfth ward are advocating his entrance into the race for that position, It is practical- Ily certain that Alderman John F., Gill of the second ward will he a candi- date for re-election, while Cornelius 1J. Dehm, whose election as first ward alderman ls expected, will also be a candidate, Mr. Dehm, a former al- derman from the first, was mayor pro tem, several years ago. Alderman Pajewsk! {s assured of reelection, having been endorsed by both parties In his ward, He is the only candidate on the ticket for elec- tion next Tuesday who has the en- dorsement of both factions. He has & good following in the councll and in a contest before the whole council would have not only a group of re? publican supporters, but would draw almost the entire democratic vote, it is reported by his followers. The alderman is silent on the re- ports that he will be a candidate, but does not deny his aspirations to that office, CLEANG. 0. P, SWEEP IN'THE FIFTH WARD (Continued from First Page) this is the first time in their memoty that a ward has been allowed to stand entirely without candidates. The fifth ward is practically the only district in the city that is politically doubtful. The first four wards in- variably elect republican nominees while the sixth ward is the backbone of democracy. In the fifth ward, two of the present councilmen are re- publicans and two are democrats. It had been planned to conduct an active campaign to elect Egan and Sikora and the endorsement of I'ajewski wae a strategic move to bring about sucn clection. Pajewski enjoys perhaps the widest following of any council member the fifth ward has turned out in many a year, political experts say. In view of the turn that the fifth took last year in Mayor Paonessa’s favor, jt 1s believed that a strong democratic vote might have been registered this year but it was feared that would wish to vote for Pajewui. is rarely any ticket splitting in fiftth ward, the powers feared Pajewski would draw . the vote to the republican side. a chance for the voters to register ons for Pajewski and still vote democra- tic, they had hoped for another suc- cess this year, - L. F. & C. WILL TRANSFER NEWARK WORKERS T0 N. B.
