Constable Thomas Murphy of the Southington constabulary, was noti. fled of the death of the two women last evening and started an inves- tigation. The homes of the two women are on the outskirts of the town on the way to Compounce in the vicinity of the place where the bank robbers were captured last June. From his investigation, Constable Murphy learned that Mrs. Dom- alewski has been in the habit of visiting the home of Mrs. Helm and late Saturday afternoon she visited the woman and brought with her a pint bottle of liquor. The two women consumed the stuff and shortly after, both became violently ill. Despite medical at- tention, their conditions became steadily worse untfl they both died. Medical Examiner Nagle found the tottle from which both drank, but only a little of the contents was| left, Constable Murphy found that the ! liquor was some that Mrs. Domalew- ski had made herself and this elim- inates further search for another person who might have sold it to | her.

After he had made an ineffectual effort to have friends come to the assistance of. his. father and save Rim from jail for inability to pay his fine and costs, the son of Elia Maletta of 225 Elm street pleaded with Captain George J. Kelly at po- lice headquarters today to be allow- ed to take his father’s place and work out the penalty in jail. The elder Maietta, who gave his age as 56, was fined $100 and costs by Judge Roche for driving an automo- bile while under the influence of lquor, and was to have been taken to jail this morning to work at the rate of $1 a day until the penalty was satisfied.

At least he had the plans while at Brainard field this morning but may change them in some degree after studying a copy of the Con- necticut aviation laws given him by Bergeant George §. Pranaitis, state aviation inspector. Supina related his plans to the inspector, the only difficulty seemingly standing in the way being the lack of a ship. If he could borrow a ship he thought he could iearn to master it today, but If necessary he could spend a few day eceiving instructions. This done, he hoped to hop off for Rome, returning by way of England, and then would proceed to make his round the world jump, making no stops but tak- ing on supplies from other planes. The state inspector was im- pressed; not so much with the feasibility of the plan, but with the lack of information as to air- planes possessed by the would-be pilot, LOWDEN RECEIPTS TOTALED $64700 ' Expenditures Ave “Little Less Than m’ " EX-GOVERNOR ON STAND Tells Senate Committee That He Can See No Future For American Republic of Agriculture Farming Decays, Washington, May 14 UP—Frank 0. Lowden, appearing as witness be- fore the senate campaign funds and lcr.immllbee. testified today that his| receipta were $64,700 and expendi- tures “a little less than $60,000.” No Agreement The former governor of Iilinois sald he had authorized no agree- ment with other republian presiden- tial candidates, and that he had not been a party to propaganda against them. Asked specifiauy if it were true that there was an understand- ing that the Lowden strength would be swung to Vice-President Dawes, his elose friend, in the event Low- den could not obtain the nomination, the witness said there was no such plan. He added that it had not been even remotely discussed by him. Lowden agreed with Senator Dale, republican, of Vermont, when it was suggested that the talk about such an agreement might be attributed to the fact that the witness and Dawes had simllar views on the agricultur- al question. Agriculture Doomed . Near the close of his testimony, Lowden sald that agriculture was doomed unless it could be restored to its proper parity. “I can't see a bright future for the American republic if agriculture is permitted to decay,” he said. “So iong as that cause exists of course, T'll stand for it.” Before he began testifying Low- den was introduced to the members of the committee and shook hands with them. The former governor of Illinois said his receipts totalled $64,700. His personal books showed he had contributed $12,600 to advance his own cause, although he said Clar- ence F. Buck, acting as his cam- paign manager, had Informed him i the contribution was really $15,000. This discrepancy would be | straightened out, he declared, when | he could examine his accounts. Low- den said the greater port of the fund had been contributed by two old friends—Omer N. Custer of Galesburg, Tll, and Robert D. Clark of Los Angeles, a former resident of Ilinots. These two, with Buck, who |is a former state senator of Illinois, had been attempting to line up dele- gates for him. “There is a voluntary organiza- tion in New York,”” Lowden con- tinued. “They did not even ask my consent. As you gentlemen know, I have not been active, have not even made & political speech, though I have been urged to do 80." Saw Buck Friday The witness said he saw Buck last Friday and received from him a statement of receipts and expen- ditures down to that time. “The receipts were $64.700,” he sald, “and expenditures were & lit- tle less than $60,000. He thinks they have enough for the remain of the campaign. He says I have contributed $15,000, but my books show only $12,500 and I have not been able to straighten out the discrepancy. “I think Custer and Clark have given the largest part of the total amount. “At the outset, T adopted the policy that we would not set up organizations in any state unless the republicans of the states were | the facts and recommended that the sufficlently aggressive for me to go ahead and conduct the campaign. “I have felt from the first that the republicans will have a real (Continued on Page 15) * f THE WEATHFR | New Britain and viciity: Falr tonight and Tuesday; warmer Tweada; | change, A._——l VAN LEAR BLACK | FLYING T0 AFRICA Starts 40,000 Mile Air Taxi Journey to Tokio 15 BALTINORE PUBLISHER 1Starts From England Longest Hired | Planc Flight Ever Made and One of the longest in Aviation History.

His first ! scheduled stop was Venice, some 700 miles from Croydon. Before hopping off he mi, Mr. Black said, “Somehow 1 had | to work hard all my life and now jthat T have a little leisure, I intend {to sec much of the world as quickly as I can.

The. flight was started under favor- able conditions. The weather was calm and fine with a certain amount {of the morning mist. The favorable conditions were indicated to be gen- |erally prevalent along the airlane to | Paris. From Venice, Mr. Black was to fly {to Cairo. Then he purposed to head | south across the African jungles to Cape Town, following the route | blazed by Colonel S§ir Pierrie Van Ryneveld, director of the South African airforce, in 1920.

GIRL STRUCK BY AUTO BRINGS $15,000 SUIT| 15 Year Old Child Claims She Is Permanently Hurt e at 6:23 a. | A $15000 damage suit was brought today by Jennie Alexewicz, 15, of 28 Gold street through her {father, Wladyslaw Alexewicz, against George Gunch and Paul Messner, ifor injuries received in an automo- | bile accident on November 27, 1927. The writ prepared by Attorney Mar- tin F. Stempien states that on that | [date at about 10 o'clock in the eve- | ning, the girl was proceeding easter- | !ly on the crosswalk of Lafayette and Washington streets, when an auto- mobile owned by Gunch and driven by Messner turned sharply at the corner striking her and injuring her severely. The plaintiff was taken to the New Britain General hospital where a medical examination revealed a severe injury to her ribs and lungs ' which will be permanent, it is claim- ‘ed. The plaintiff also received in- Jjurfes on the legs, face and other (parts of the body. It is further istated that the accident was caused | through negligence on the part of | the driver of the car by operating it in so careless and negligent a man- ner as to endanger the lives of pas- sersby who might be crossing on the | crosswalk, failure to give proper twarning of his approach and violat- ing the motor vehicle law by cutting ' a corner in such a way as to cause an illegal turn. As a result of her injuries the plaintiff contracted pleurisy, had & lung punctured and was confined to the hospital for two weeks and later to her home for a long period, caus- ing her parents to expend a large sum of money for medical attention, |nurses and medicine, it is claimed. It is further stated that as a re!mll’ of the accident the plaintiff re- ceived permanent injuries and dis- Ifl[flremen! and is subject to nervous shocks and severe headaches. Papers were served by Deputy Sheriff Matthew Papciak and the case is scheduled to be tried in the superior court in Hartford sometime in June.
