HINTS AT FLAWS INREALTY TIES Lavyer Qusions Legaly of Holings on Nill Sret Intimating that people who have | Dbuilt houscs on the south side of Mill | street may be occupying city pro- perty, without title to the land they | claim and without standing as pro- perty owners, was made last night by | Attorney Donald Gaffney when he | apeared before the board of ad- justment in the interest of the Acorn Bearing Co., petitioner for a zoning exception. Mr. Gaffney exlained that this has been his impression, and that it is a rather widespread one, but that he has not had opportunity to investi- gate deeply into the report. His statement was intended to weaken | the opposition, consisting of a long list of residents and property owners. The Acorn Co. operating a small factory, planned to enlarge its| quarters @nd improve existing build- | ings. but found that, being located in a residence district, it was ve- strained trom doing so without a special exception from the board of adjustment. Attorney Gaffney pointed to the fact that this is an industrial city | and he urged that nothing be done to stunt the growth of small indus- | tries. He also culled to the attention of the board the fact that many of | the houses now on Mill street were | built after the NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1928, voiced objection, claiming that to!Smith while other democrats in- permit Horwitz to carry out his plan | cluding Dr. Jennie Callfas, until re- would be to allow him to go over|cently democra.ic committee woman the building line. Inspector Rutherford recalled agi- tation over building lines and was of the impression that Mr. Horwitz's house establishes the alignment ment whieh governs in the absence of a fixed building line. Mr. Marholin, who formerly con- ducted a store in his building. told of his plan to move forward several feet, which plan he dropped after neighbors objected and fixed a 15- foot line which, he was certain, still holds. He had no objection to Hor- witz having a larger store, although he claimed Horwitz received a per- mit for a sun-portch and then con- verted it into a store, but he re- served for himself the right to ex. tend his store front in the event Horwitz does.

ACTRESS' DEATH IS STILL UNDER PROBE N. Y. District Atty. However, Thinks Demise Was Natural New York, Oct. 11 District Attorney Banton today expreased the Lelief that Eliagbeth C. Poole, 33 years old, of Onset, Mass, former actress, died a natural death, but continued his investigation of re- ports that she was beaten in a night club before her death at a private hospital last Monday. Daniel Coughlin, undertaker, who embalmed the body, under guestion- ing today by Assistant District At- torney William Ryan, said Miss Poole’s body had no marks of vio lence, Mr. Banton said he would sum- mon Tommy Guinan, brother of Texas Guinan, and others connected with the night club to his office for questioning. Mr. Banton quoted Lil- lian Lorraine, actress, as saying Miss Poole came to Miss Lorraine's apartment early Sunday after visit- ing the night club. Mr. Banton fur- {ther quoted Miss Lorraine as saying Miss Poole “raved” about having been beaten and thrown out of the night club. The district attorney explained he jbused his belief she died a natural death upon reports he received from physicians. Sales Force Banqueted By L. F. & C.

W. Stevens, Wiight Field officials announced today. The flight also is believed to mark the highest altitude ever attained by two men, it was said. The baro- graph carried by the fliers showed 140,200 feet, but has been sent to the | bureau of standards at Washington for calibration. It's expected calibra- tion will show an altitude in the neighborhood of 38,000 feet and !near to the standing one-man height record. The photographs, mostly of open country, show distinctly the roads and other. features of the terrain, Wright Field officers said. It was indicated that other at- tempts probably would be made shortly for new altitude records and photographs. Yesterday's flight war camera.
