STOECKEL WOULD TAX PARKED CARS (Continued from First Page) highways within their limits upon which such a tax law should ap- ply and (c¢) a working plan for collection governed by a parking ordinance. It is felt by the depart- ment that such a law ought to have the support of merchants be- cause its reasonable provisions coudl allow parking time enough for the transaction of business er- rands and at the same time pre- vent long-time parking in front of stores. Along the same line, the bulle- tin discusses the traffic danger caused by big motor busses stop- ping in the highway to pick up or discharge passengers. It suggests that police regulations might be made permitting such busses to stop for such purpose only at designated stations, and that the plan might be extended further ind busses required to go off the traveled portion of the highway Jefore stopping. Sees Clear Highways in Future he commercial motor vehicle is ssed in the same vein. " the bulletin says, be the law that no motor vehicle be allowed to stop or park on the traveled portion of a highway.” A thorough discussion of the question in the present session of the legis- lature is suggested. The * automatic traffic signal is endorsed except at points where there is so little traffic that the signal simply slows up traffic. A remedy is suggested for the condi- tion which now tempts many au- tomobilists to speed up after pass- ing one signal in the hope of pass- ing the next before it s set against him. “boulevard” or ‘“arterial system, employed in the west, which gives traffic on the main road right of way over traf- fic on side streets, could not be made an inclusive the bulletin says, but it says that there is no reason why its use as | a traffic instrument could not safe- | Iy be permitted where conditions warrant. “There are many streets in Connecticut cities where this plan could be used as a valuable means for removing congestion,” it . Since the state law grants yight of way to vehicles ooming from the right, however, a change in the state law would be neces sary to give cities the necessary latitude to this end. BANK SWINDLER ARRESTED HERE (Continued from First Page) nocence and seemingly very much embarrassed said he could not un- derstand what it was all about. Beyond that point he refused to say anything. At the police station it was found that “Sachs,” déscription tallied with a circular sent out by the Newport News, Va., police depart- ment asking that he be arrested us a4 bank swindler. Deposits “$35,000” in Bank The circular states that on July 1, a person giving his rame as Jo- seph Cohen, alias Aaron Aronowitz, alias Herbert Grossman, alias Julius B dnagle, ali: Henry Lenoshn, presented to a ) a cashier's check drawn by a bank in. Los Angeles on the First on- ai bank of Chicago for 000. The following day he returned and gave his personal check for $5,000 against his deposit in payment for five one thousand dollar 4% per cent Lib- erty bonds. He is 33 years old, five feet cight inches tall and weighs about 140 pounds. He has black wavy hair, parted on one side. His upper front teeth are separated and he has a sal- low complexion. He has quiet, unassuming man- ners. He wears tortoise shell glas: 1 blue serge suit of worsted with a pin stripe. Charged With Grand Larceny A warrant is held by Chief of Po- lice A. A. McPherson of Newport News, charging grand larceny 15,000 and a reward of $500 is of- ‘ state law ap- | plicable to all parts of Connecticut, | ewport News bank | of | This morning Chiet Hart recelved a wire from Chief McPherson as fol- lows: “Hold Joseph Cohen, alias B. Sachs, for us and rush photo for identification. Cestified copy of in- dictment being mailed to you. “A. A. McPherson, chief of police.” “Sachs”, when grilled by Chief Detective Sargeant Willlam P. Mec- Cue this morning, confessed that he was the man wanted in Newport News. When arrested late yesterday aft- | ernoon the man had about $25 in his possession. He owed the Burritt ho- tel about $9. Has $50 In Fake Checks He also had in his possession cashier’s checks ot the Italian-Amer- |ican bank of San Francisco, drawn on the City National bank of New York for amounts ranging from $1,000 to $35,000 and said to total | approximately $116,000. The signa- | tures are thought to be forged. He told the police today that he | swindled the Newport News bank because he was “broke” and needed | the money. He picked New Britain | as a good place to work because it | was half way between New York and Boston. He did not state which | local bank, if any, he had designs | upon. Aaronson’s home is in the Bronx, N. Y. Te has retained Attorney Morris D. Saxe to represent him. He | probably will waive extradition. Mrs. Aaronson was expected here this | atternoon to confer with Attorney Saxe. “Sachd,” or Aaronson, resides at 1707 Topping avenue, New York city jand is the owner of a small furniture factory in a loft at 223 East 80th street. Offers McCue $1,000 For Liberty He admitted his guilt to Detective Sergeant McCue only after that of- ficlal had “sweated” him for 45 minutes, and only after he had of- fered McCue $1,000 to permit him to escape. The detective sergeant locked himself in the cell with the prisoner and ,for three quarters of an hour the two men matched wits. Finally Aaronson broke down and admitted he was the man who was sought. He said he was sorry for his misdeeds and that he had been driven to it by financial depression. “I'll raise $1,000 for you if yoy give me a chance te get away,” he said. His offer refused he again offered to raise $1,000 if Sergeant McCue would arrange that his bail wauld be small | enough to permit him to escape. He | 1s being held without bail The police. believe he has operated in other places and efforts are being { made to learn if he is wanted else- | where. In the meantime he is being held here without bail, Chief Hart having been advised that in at least | two other places he has jumped his bail. Chiet of Police McPherson of | Newport News telephoned to the local police department today, con- firming his telegram of this morning, and asked Chiet Hart to “be sure | and hold him.” | LOOMIS MAY CLAIM REWARD John C. Loomis, president of the Commercial Trust Co., whose sus- { piclons of Aaronson revealed that |he was a crook and who tipped off the police, may claim the $500 reward, it was intimated this morning. Mr. Loomis said he had not definitely made up his mind whether or not he would seek the reward but admitted he felt he had a legitimate claim for it. Chief of Police Hart has taken steps to apply for extradition papers. Although Aaronson’s attorney, Mor- +is D. Saxe, says he cxpects his client to waive extradition, the chief is not waiting for a decision but intends to apply for papers in the event Aaron- son holds out for his constitutional righ FOURTH ROMANCE SHORT st Bridgewater, Mass, Jan (UP)—Married for the fourth time only two weeks ago, Mrs. Leonard D.

Some Barbers Blame Women Some Kansas City barbers blame women's invasion of the shops. Others declare that masculine pa- trons are not as particular now and |do not always visit the same shop as they were wont to do when busi- ness was transacted in more leisurely fashion. Still others said the need for the mugs had passed; that they came into heing as the result of some- one’s belief they would be more san- itary. . In a few small towns the private mugs still survive, but in the main they are gone. Many barbers record their passing along with that of the bloomer girl, the moustache cup, the family carriage, the quill toothpick and other manifestations of the “good old days.” RIPLEY STILL IN HOSPITAL New York, Jan. 21 (UP)—Profes- sor William Z.
