He, LEGAL RESIDENGE ARGUED IN COURT Leon Biphee Contests Wife's Non-Support Charge . A plea that information against Leon Elphee of New Haven, charged with non-support, be dismiesed on the ground that the local police court was without jurisdiction in the case, was made by Attorney Frank- lin Coeller of Ne wHaven when the case was called (or trial this morn- ing. The plea was the first of its na- ture ever made-in the local court and developed a legal discussion be- tween the defense attorney, Assistant Prosecutor Willlam A. Greenstein and Judge Benjamin W, Alling that 18 rarely heard in police courts, ‘ The discussion waxed on for some time and the attorneys were travel- ling deeper and' deeper into the laws, Judge Alling halting the discussion whep the lawyers were discussing the case from an angle of laws re- garding papers, The court suggest- ed that both attorneys agree on a statement of facts to the court which'| he would conslder before making a decision on the plea. This was agreed to and a statement was made to the court, The case was continued until Oc- tober 20 pending the decision. Attorney Coeller opened the case for the defense immediately after Elphee was called by making a Wo- tion to the court that the informa- tion on the complaint be separated. Elphee was charged on the warrant with “unlawfully refusing to support his wife and family,” the wording being the “stock” charge used in the local police court in non-support cases. The defense claimed that the wife should be contained in one in- formation, and in the other infor- mation should be contained the name of children or others that the defendant was lawfully compelled support. Prosecutor Greenstein told t coutr that he had no objection to aeparation of the information and the court granted the motion. In the revised information, Elphee was charged with unlawfully refusing to support his two-year-old daughter, it being explained that the wife did not wish anything for her support. In Hospital, Wife Leaves Home. In the statement of facts made to the’court it was said that Llphee IIvéd with Bis wite at 118 Black I'rancis hospital, Hartford. Th lived at the Bluck Rock avenue ad- drees until July 17, 1923, when El-| phee gaid that he went to the hos-| pital for treatment. When he re- week later, he sald that his wife had left their home, taking with her then received a letter from her con- taining a key to the home and saying that she had gone to live with her folks, He satd that he went to her rela- tives' " home at 34 Loncoln etreet and | learned that his wife and child had ! gone to Vermont, where they stayed for several weeks. He then went.to his home in Auburn, N. Y, to rest up from his iliness, he sald, and re turped to Hartford last fall. He se-| cured employment in New Haven and has made his residence there since last November, claiming New Haven as his permanent residence now. 1lis wife has made her home per- maneatly in New Britain, and claims that Elphee has never made any re- quest for her and their child to go to New Haven to live with him. The defense claims that since New Haven is the residence of the hus- band, it is in that city that the de- mand shouud be made on him to| support his child, The state claims that since the lllphees lived in this city when the child was born and at | the time that Elphee removed from the city, the wife continuing to live here, the action for the support of the child is legally brought in the local court.

FEDORWICL FINED 5300 FOR SLLING Recepts All Blame and Employe 15 Not Held Peter Vedowicz of 116 Wirter street, proprietor of a store at the corner of Winter and Spring streets, pleaded guilty to two charges of vio- lating the liquor laws In police court this morning and was fined $300 and costs and given a suspended jail zentence of 30 days. Judge Benja- min W, Alling warned the defendant that 1f he was brought before the court again on a similar charge, he | would go to fail. A charge against Boleslaw Kosinski, Fedowiez, was nolled by the court when Assistant Prosecutor William A. Greenstein said that Fedowicz had taken all the blame for the liquor violations in the store. Tedorwicz was arrested Jast Sat- urday when the nolice raided the store and selzed three bottles and several glasses, the bottles contain- | ing small guantities of fquor. The court was informed that the police had- evidence of a sale of liquor to present the court if the case had gone 13 trial. Anthony Shupanski and his wife were discharged when they were ar- yalgned on charges of violating the Tiquor laws. Judge Alling said that there was indications from the evi- dence of the state that the defend- ants were dealing in liquor and warned them to desist, if such was the caee. In discharging them, he said that the evidence presented by the state left too much to be taken for granted by the court. Shupanski #nd his wife conduct a combination store and printing shop at 74 North strect and the polige testified that they have observed the place and seen men of drinking habits going in there. After the men entered the place, the police festified that Shupanski would go out the rear of th: gtore and up to his teneemnt and back to the store again. Shupanski said that he went to his tenement frequently during the day and evening to look after two small children hecause his wife could not leave the store unattended. He denied possession of the liquor that was found by the police in a cloget in the hallway near the Shu- panski apartment, 1 testified that Mrs. Shupanski has told them the closet was hers, but when they alcohol, she denied ownership ands all knowledge as to how they got there, Judge Alling inspected the liquor and said that it would be impossible to serve it for drinking purposes without diluting it. A few seconds jafter the cap of the jas was removed the alcoholic odor could be detected in any part of the courtroom, Frank Stakora of 276 Elm street, charged with reckless = driving on Rockwell avenue, Scptember 3, had judgment suspended in his case.

Pullen, superintendent of health, Dr. Pullen spoks today at the meeting of the New Britain Rotary club at the Burritt hotel. His talk was on the problems of the health department, #le sald the best known activity | of the department of health was the | handling of’communicable diseases, such as scarlet fever, measles, chick- en pox, smallpos, typhold fever and | similar diseases. He said in these cases tha local board does not act | alone but acts jointly with the state, | He sald the smallpox In New Brit- | ain last spring was sald by some people not to be an epidemic. He | said the disease was of the type of black smallpox, the most deadly seen fn Connecticut in 25 years and that 80 far as he knew only one physi- | clan in the city had ever seen it be- fore, The vaccination clinic took care | of 8,750 people and that in the en- | tire city there were 32,500 vaccinat- | ed. Mot of these, he said, were new vacclnations, showing that prac- | tically that number of people were susceptible, “Almost everyone who is exposed to smallpox and not vaccinated will contract it,” he said, He said there were hetween 1,500 and 2,000 con- | tacts for each case, declaring that “If it wasn't an epidemic, I'm glad it was not.” He said the loss of life as figured | on State Comimissioner Stanley Os- borne's valuation of $5,000 per per- i son, | Stating that there still {s danger of further outbreak he sald the chances have been greatly reduced | by vaccination. “The unvaccinated person in the community, T don't care who he 18| is a menace to others in the com. munity,” he sald. He made the statement that when | |the epidemic first began to show | signs of belng under control, the | health board was on the verge of closing about 30 per cent of the in- | dustries, was up against the problem ' of closing the schools and theaters and was faced with a state quaran- tine or embargo. 5 Cooperation By Press Speaking of the routine work of the health departmcnt he said the department’s best agency for pub- lic good is the cooperation it gets trom the newspapers, which he sald was very satisfactory. “We don't ' hold_anything back, everything in |the health department is free to | newspapers and only things which in | our mutual judgment are not wise to print are left out, The news- | paper is our best medium of getting |the cooperation of the public.” He explained the operations of the "u\mr(‘ulnnin clinic, and the work done by the tuberculosis nurses, Ie !spoke of the nutrition classes opened |in the echools last year and explain- ed that the looking after the under- nourished child by the health de- partment was simply an educational measure as the department does not provide medical attention, He said 30 per cent of the chil- dren are in need of instruction in proper food and sleep.
