READING’S CASE T0 BE AGTED ON Attempt to Pass Vote of Gensure Only Fails Boston, June 6.—(#—Brushing aside last minute attempts by friends of Attorney General Arthur K. Read- ing te substitute for a recommenda- tion of impeachment, a motion of censure, the Massachusetts house of representatives today had cited him before the bar of the senate for trial on charges of gross misconduct in office. For the first time in more than a century an elected oficer of the com- monwealth stood impeached. Today the house prepared to act on a bill of particulars which Rep sentative George ¥. James of Nor wood, chairman of the special com- mittee which inquired into the attor ney general's conduct, announced he would file, Its acceptance without decbate or record vote was predicted, and with the appointment of a board of man- agers to represent the house before the senate, the lower branch will have finally disposed of the Reading case, The senate probably will reccive formal notification of the impeach- ment this afternoon. A suggestion that the upper body recess for three weeks to allow the attorney general to prepare his case was heard but senate leaders were anxious to proceed with the trial in a shorter time, if possible. As several members of the sc ate will go to the republican conven- tion at Kansas City next week, the opening of the trial probably will not take place before June 18. ‘The charges on which Reading was impeached concerned largely his |driving. secret acceptance of a $25,000 retain- er from the Decimo Club Inc., a fra- ternal organization whose atfairs had shortly before been under acrutiny of his department, and his part in bringing about a financial reorganization of the United L. A. W. corporation of Worcester, a finance concern. ' The vote against the attorney gen- eral was 196 to 18. From his office Reading kept in touch with forces on the floor throughout the d e but after the vote was taken he announced he had no comment to make. He did, however, pay tribute to those who had voted for him. I thank God,” he said, that there are some men in the house with cour- age and & sense of fair play.” Earlier in the session Representa- tive Harry B. Aibro of Falmouth, leader of the activities to reported to be | - |Judge Isaac Wolfe in superior court his | B. Griffin of Hartford. Reading forces, was reported to have been on the point of offering a resolution of “censure’” which would have attributed Read- “errors in judg- He failed to present it when in- formed that Speaker Hull would leave the chair to eppose it, thus throwing the entire weight of the organization against Reading. Chairman James of the Reading | committee led the attack on the at- §iurm, general whose removal he |demanded as “the only means by | { which the office he so contaminated can be cleansed and purified.” 'FIRES CONSTABLE'S HOME, LANG SENTENCED T0 JAIL | Newington Resident With Grievance | Who Applied Torch Appears | | in Superior Court | Newington, June g—Thomas Lang, | of Newington, was given a jail |sentence of 30 days in superior| court harge of{ breach ¢ Lang was ar-| rested here on March 16 by Officer | Lloyd Sukers of the state police | s suspect after an attempt had 'been made to set fire to the home of Constable John F.

POLISH-LITHUANIA SITUATION GRAVE Their Relations Are Menace to All Burope Geneva, June 6 (M—A denuncia- tion by Bir Austen Chamberlain, the British forelgn secretary, of the Lithuanian government left the im- pression in League of Nations circles today that Polish-Lithuanian rela- tions were a serious menace to the peace of Europe., 8ir Austen's condemnation was as You Will Sense A With ¢-apeed Al prices £ o. - Five chassis—sixes and cights- 0 82485, Carillustrated is Model transmission, (s: your disposal. —prices ranging from $860 629; five-passenger Scdan, andard gear B & Detrois, Real Difference— Only under actual driving conditions—in traffic, on the open road, and up steep grades—can you fully appreciate the per- formance advantages of four speeds forward, (with standard gear shift).

WHITMORE 319 EAST MAIN STREET, NEAR ELM STREET GRARAM-PAIGE — also held to indicate the stand which Great Britain ahd other great pow- ers might take should the contro- versy come to a head. In a conversation with British journalists, the foreign secretary characterized the ~ Lithuanian pro- clamation naming Vilna as its cap- ital “an act of fll.will and provoca- tion. Vilna was seized from Lith- uania by an independent Polish gen- eral and although Poland disavowed his action, Pelagd remained in con- trol of the city and the council of ambassadors confirmed Poland's possession. Sir Austen remarked that despite the action of the league council last December in trylng to settle the Pol- ish-Lithuanian dispute there had been little progress in the matter of better relations between the two countries. “‘Sympathy naturally goes to the weaker nations,” he said, ‘“but if a smaller and weaker nation goes cut of its way to take an irritating and provocating action against a more powerful one or shows itself vnreasonable, obstinate and uncom- promising, it will deprive itself of the sympathy of its neighbors.” Augustine Waldemaras, premier of Lithuania, said later that rela- ticns between the two states would be adjusted satisfactorily. In regard to Vilna, he remarked: *“The fron- tiers ‘between Lithuania and Poland have not yet been fixed definitely.” Seasonal Hardware Activity Is Better New York, June 6 — Practically all hardware market centers report sharp improvement in activity of asonal lines, Hardware Age will y tomorrow in its weekly market summary. This has been due large- ly to the more seasonal weather conditions of the past week.

Employment, particularly in the automotive industry, is Increasing- ly satistactory, and the rural dis- tricts are optimistic as to the crop outlook, Both factors are having a somewhat stimulating effect upon the hardware trade, Priceg continue firm and few changes are reported this weck. Col- loctions are showing some improve- ment as general business - becomes more active. 400 Million Dollars In Treasury Issues Washington, June § (UP)-—S8ecre- tary of Treasury Mellon announced today sale of two sarics of treasury certificates tataling $400,000,000, One aeries totaling $20,000,000 will be for six months, expiring De- cember 15, 1928 and bear 4 per cent interest, The ather serios of $200,- 000,000, will bear 8 7-8 per cent in- terest and mature March 15, 1929.

Scales, who came to New York from New Orleans 21 years ago with 28 cents and a $200 diamond ring and in two years ran it into a fortune of $8,000,000 on the cot- ton exchange, died yesterday of heart disease.

Found People - Preferred His Prescription The basis of treating sickness has not changed since Dr. Caldwell left Medical College in 1875, nor since he placed on the market the laxative prescription he had used in his prac- tice, known to druggists and the public since 1892, as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Then, the treatment of constipa- tion,; billousness, headaches, mental depression, indigestion, sour stomach and other indispositions that resuit from constipation was entirely by means of almple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin which is a combination of senna and other mild laxative herbs, with pep- sin, Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did nat belleve they were good for hu- man beings to put into their system. It grown people want to use them no one can deny them the privilege, but they should never be givem to children. ; The simpler the remedy for con- stipation, the safer for the child and for you, and the better for the gen- eral health of all.
