Leak, superintendent of w Connkctiout state hospital at Middletown in an address to' the Kiwanis club ‘at the Burritt hotel at noon today, \ Dr. Leak stated that the average person today takes an entirely wrong attitude towards the person who is mentally sick, He explained ®hat theyword “insane” has been discard- edin all cases except on legal docu- ments-and that patfents in the hos- pitals are simply “mentally sick,” Handlipg these cases he sld is ofie’ of the most-serlous, phas of lite, There are; accopding to Dr. Leak' res 4,600 mentally sick people in-Conneeticut, 2,700 of them being at Middletown &nd 1800 at Norwic! g * . He told how the Middletown insti- ~tution Is a community in itself, the institution havipg its own = electri- ¢élans, plumbers, carpenters and oth- er types of mechaplcs.. “There are no lay offs, we work day and night every day and every hour,” he said, explaining that much of the work is due to the destructive instincts of certain types of patients. 4 “\We are dealing with the most in- tricate kind of machinery, the hu- man body and the h!inn mind,” he said. He explaincd that thie institution has Its own power plant and also that the patients are being cared for, fed and housed, given medical at- tention when needed on an average cost of $5.91 par patient per week. He said that until two years ago when the courts were askefl to send patients to Norwich = because the Middletown institution was over- crowded, there. was an average of £10 new patients every year. In the last two years 845 were admitted. Of these 604 had never before been in an ingtitution of this kind. Eigh- teen per cent of the patients are aliens costing the state between $32,- 000 and $33,000 every ycar.

The patients notices the attitude and broads over “"'.\II of us have some - hidden secrets which, 1f not properly dealt Jwith may lead to our own break- down," he said. : { ‘The physician severely, criticized | the relatives and friends who de- ceive the patient by saying, “We are going to take you for a e, or to visit Aunt Jane,” and then dumps the patigpt into an institution and hurries away. The patient imme- diutely becomes indignant, insists ppon his constitutional rights of freedém, gays he has vot been com- mitted by order of the courts, and then there ensucs a period of months before the confidenge and friendship of the patient can be gained.

DEMOCRATS IN A PEACEFUL HOOD Tomorow's Opesing Wil Be Galm Al Syfacuse, N, Y‘.. 8eépt. 24,—~The democartic political situation settled down today to an almost unruffied calm to awalt the opening tomorrow of what is generally expected to be a ratification of the present state offielals' for renomination as the party e during the coming cam- palgn, Although Governor Smith still de- clines to say whether he will run again, all the delegates now on the scene assure that there will be no other candidate, Since Mayor Hylan of New York declared that he would not be a can- didate and would not even attend the convention, the situation has| clarified itself, Compared with the spirited con- vention of two years ago, when Gov- ernor Smith waged a sucessful bat- tle against Willlam Randolph Hearst and Mayor Hylan, the pre-conven- tion atmosphere this year is decided- ly peaceful. The party flatform was the chief concern of the leaders today, The contents, it was disclosed to- day, Will be familtar to followers of democratic party principals in the state for the past four years. Re- organization of state departments, improvement of the state's extensive park system, betterment of its hos- pital facilities, welfare Jegislation for women and children, improved conditions for industrial workers of the state and, modification of the Volstead law to permit sale of light wines and be# will each have their place in' the list. ¢ Whether the Ku Klux Kian will be mentioned by name, and openly denounced, still remains a matter of some doubt, although leaders are united in their jopinion that some reference will be made to the or- ganization. 5 Virtually all of the state officials who wilf be associated with Gov- ernor Smith gqn the democratic | ticket for a second time have ar- i rived in the city. MURDERER GONE AND NO CLUE IS FOUND (Continued from First Page) | { | | | San Luca, Ttaly, and landed at Ni- agara Falls, N. Y., on Oct. 20, 1922, He has a wife living in Italy. His age was given as 39 years. Residents of the city that were known by the police to have been acquainted with Vottari have been | interviewed by the police and Spon- | 8a,but they were unable to throw any light on his pregent whereabouts. All professed ignorance, saying that they were not on frienly terms with the fugitive. The police ran into a trail of unpaid bills and loans that Vot- tari seemed to leave every place he lived or was known, and feel that his financial troubles will lead to his capture. . Policemen Thomas J. Feeney, Patrick O'Mara and Thomas C. Do- lan are assisting in the investigation, the. men working practically day and night following, all leads that might possibly bring any information on | the caae, > Left Many Unpaid Bills It is said that a number of credit- crs share with the police a feeling of anxiety over Vottari's disappear- ance. According to reports he has succeeded in running up many bills and those to whom the money is owed despair of ever being paid. Vottari was popular with the girls, having a number of friends among the fair sex. He has a wife in Italy but whether he told his girl associ- ates of this fact is not known, Mayor Paonessa, Chief Hart and Chairman Dunn of the police com- mission held a conference at police headquarters yesterday. It is sald that the mayor is very anxious to effect Vottari's capture and impress- ed this fact on Chief Hart and Chair- man Dunn, If the New Britain police depart- ment was equipped with a red light signal ‘system by which patrolmen can be notified that headquarters wants to speak with them, Vottari might never have gotten beyond the city limits, By this system, every policeman on a beat could have been informed of the details of the mur- der within a few minutes after it was reported to headquarters and could have been on the watch for Vottari. He is said to have crossed Stanley street in the direction of St. Mary's cemetery within half an hour after the double shooting. As his face was cut from contact yith the window In Mrs. Scorsoto's hote, through which he forced his way, and he was without a hat, his detec- tion would have. beer accomplished by policemen 1h that district. So swiftly have the police worked on the case that they have almost & complete sfory of Vottari’s life dur- ing recent years. They have learned that he worked in a munitions plant in Francein 1920 and that he has been employed at different times in other European citics.

Eventual consolldation of all New England rallroads Into one system, the stock of which would be held Jointly by the four large trunk line systems of the ecast, has been sug- gested by bankers as a possible so- lution of ,the grouping problem i this section of the country, The larger trunk lines, it was indicated, would undertake to support such a consolidation only in the event that New England indusiry felt unable to finance it, Recent discussions of the New England railroad grouping have revolved about the possibility of using the Delaware and Hudson as a bridge route to link this ter- ritory with the main arteries of traffic.

The upward movement of a. large ma- jority of shares was takep as an in- dication of real mvnutm§1t buying, but by some considered the continu- ance of a “speciulty, market,” Active fndustrials appeared to have absorb- ed the attention recently given to the rails.
