T S R iy T MR D D e e L T NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1928, POLICENAN SPOTS SUSPENDED DRIVER Strolls Says Gray Turned Over Whee to Companion The pesitive identification of Wil- llam Gray, aged 27, of 450 Allen street, by Motorcycle Officer W. 8. Strolls as the driver of an automo- bile on Stanley street about 4:10 yosterday afternoon, had more weight with Judge M. D. Saxe in police court today than the ecom- bined denials of Gray and Samuel Sanelli of Kensington, the court finding Gray guilty on the charge of operating an automobile’ while his license was under suspension. Im- posing a fine of $100 and costs, Judge Saxe remarked that had the officer's identification been made through a casual glimpse of the motorist in passing he would not be as ready to accept it as he was in view of the testimony, that the of- ficer actually saw Gray change places with Sanelli in ‘the front seat. Gray took an appeal to su- perior court in $200 bonds. Officers 8trolls testified that he was riding south in front of the State Normal school and Gray and Banelll were riding in the opposite direction. Gray was driving, accord- ing to the officer, but as the latter turned his machine about and start- od tn pursuit, he looked through the rear window of the automobile and saw Gray get from behind the wheel and take Banelli's place, while Ba- nelli took up the driver's position. Overtaking the car near Wells street the officer asked Gray if his license was under suspension and the reply was affirmative. It developed that Sanelli did not have his license with him but Lieutenant Bamforth al. lowed him to go home and get it and did not charge him. Cross-examined by Judge W. F. Mangan, who represented Gray, Of- ficer Strolls said he has known Gray for 15 years and there was absolute- ly no question that he was driving. When his motorcycle passed the automobile,” there was not more than four feet space between them and he had a good view of the oc- cupants of the automobile. He was going about 20-miles an hour and | Gray was driving at about the same | speed. Gray testified that he had permis- sion to leave a sewer construction Job on which he was working for | the public works department, to make a collection for a gift for an | employe of the enginecring depart- ment who is to be marricd, and was returning from city hall when he was arrested. He lost his license four years ago, he said, and of late Sanelll has been driving his car. He wag not aware that Banelli had left his license at home until the officer asked him to show it. Dentes Gray Was Driving Sanelli testified that Henty Gray, father of William Gray, had ordered him to drive the latter from the sewer job, and he did so. At no time waa Gray behind the wheel, he said. Henry Gray testified that Sapelli was driving when the car rolled away from the job, he hav- ing ordered Sanelli to drive so that his son would rot become involved in trouble on account of the sus- pension of the license, Prosecuting Attorney Woeds claimed a conviction, declaring that Officer Strolls would net make s statement which was net true, and kis word was worth mere than that of Gray, who'has a police court ree. ord. Judge Mangan at ence ob- jected and accused Mr. Woods of being unfair in mentioning Gray's record. “He is before Your Henor 2s a first offender, an innocent man, and the court must consider him as such until proven otherwise,” Judge Mangan said. “I'm talking. now, and den't you interrupt me, please,” Mr. Woods re. plied. ¥ “I certainly will faterrupt you as long as you continue to talk as you have done,” the defense counsel as. serted. Judge Mangan called Judge Saxe's attention to the unreasonableness of the state’s claim that Gray was driv- ing, In view of the fact that the very reason Sanelli had left his work was to drive. It was entirely possible for Officer Strolls to be mistaken in his identification, and it did not apear reasonable to expect the court to be. lieve that two men could exchange positions in the front seat of an au- tomobile without causing & change in the speed of the mechine, he sald. Nobody uses the hand throttle on cars, Judge Mangan said, and when a foot was taken off the accelerator the speed of the car must be lessened, increasing when another foot was pressed against it, assum- ing that the occupants of the seat 2ctually had exchanged places, yet Ofticer Strolls, who claimed to have seen the men making the move, | testified that there was no apparent change in the speed, nor had the car zig-zagged in its path. Policeman Ia Collfsion Michael Gabes, aged 40, of 107 Daly avenue, charged with violation of the rules of the road, had the charge nolled. He was driving north on Dewey street about 5:25 day afternoon and as he made turn to go west on Smalley street, he is alleged to have cut the corner in such a way as to loom up in front of a car owned and driven by Pa- trolman Maurice Flynn, who was traveling east on Smalley street at | the approximate rate of 20 miles an hour. Patrolinan John Griffen was in Patrolman Flynn's car. Nobody was injured. The damage to Patrolman Flynn's car included the bending of the front bumper and left front fender |and the breaking of the steering ap- paratus. On the other car the loft running board and left rear fender were damaged and the door on the left side sprung. “l am A Sales Managgr and one of my first jobs is to sell each one of my salesmen a Savings Account in this Mutual Bank.

Dykens, aged 31, of 117 Fairview streot, pleaded nolo con- tendere to the charge of operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor and was fined $100 and costs on recommendation of Prose- cuting Attorney J.

WALSH ATTACKS AGAIN Teapot Dome Prosecutar Now Alms Broadside At Salt Creek Oil Loases At Political Addreas, Lewistown, Mont, Oct. 20 UP— ‘The Salt Creek oil leases came un- der the fire of 8enator Thomas J. Walsh in a political address here last night in whick the Montana senator urged support of the demo- cratic national ticket. Walsh declared he would have an inquiry instituted in the senate as to “why the secretary of interior, Mr. Work, failed to get feliable le- sal opinions on the validity of the option clause in the Sinclair con- tract for the purchase of Salt Creek Royalty oil before renewing the thing.” Walsh referred to a contract made by former secretary of the interior Albert B. Fall with the S8inclair Crude Oil purchasing company for the purchase of government oil in the Balt Creek, Wyo., field, which was renewed for a five year period last January and which was declared void by Attorney General Sargent a few days ago. The senator was chairman of the sonate committes which investigated the leasing of Teapot Dome in Wy- oming. HUNT COLUMBUS' TOMB Evidence Found Pointing to Possi- bility of Famous Explorer Having Been Buried in Spaim. Badajoz, S8pain, Oct. 27 P—A commission sent by the academy of history to investigate what is claim- ed by some to be the tomb of Chris- topher Columbus at Oliva De Jerex, 45 miles south of Badajoz, reported today that there were traces in the church of Santa Maria Gracia indi- cating mementos of Columbus. The commission also stated that a num- ber of stones had been found with the inscription: Here lies Christo- pherus 8anches Enriques, grand ad- miral of the oceans and the lands by him discovered. Born 1441, Venriquez is claimed by some to be the real name of Columbus. After the death of the discoverer his remains were sent to S8anto Do- minge and interred in a monas- tery there. When Spain ceded the island of Santo Domingo to France in 1795 a Spanish commission w: sent to remove the remains to vana. Some authorities claim that by mistake the committee took to Havana the remains of Don Diego, the son of Columbus, and not the discoverer himself. They assert he is still buried in Santo Domingo. Other authorities say that the re- mains of Columbus were taken to Havana and later when Cuba was lost to Spain in the war with Amer- ica, removed to Seville, Bpain, and rest in the cathedral there. | Mexican Murder Trial Will Open in November Mexico City, Oct. 20 —The trial of Jose De Leon-Toral and Mother Concepcion on charges growing out of the assassination of President- elect Obregon is cxpected to open shortly, possibly as soon as early November.

The prosecution will not proceed against the others arrested during the investigation, but will leave the way open for other authorities to prosecute them on charges of dyna- miting the chamber of deputies and the Obregon headquarters, partici- pation in a frustrated plan to assas- inate President Calles and General Obregon at Celaya several months before Obregon's slaying and viola- tion of the religious law by prac- ticing religious services.

CURTIS SPEAKING IN STATE TONIGHT \Will Deliver Address in Hart- ford Foot Guard Hall En Route With Senator Curtis to | New Haven, Conn, Oct. 20 UP— | Connecticut, almost a sideyard of New York, was the objective today ‘ot Senator Charles Curtis, the ze- | publican vice presidential nominee, as he concluded another heavy week |of campaigning for his party's cause. Tonight he speaks at Hartford. Leaving Trenton, N, J., early today after two strenuous days in that 1 e, he stopped over in New York for a visit with party leaders. He will stop at New Haven late in the jafternoon and again at Meriden be- | fore proceeding to the night meet- | ing. | A national radio hookup was at the disposal of the vice presidential nominee at Trenton last night and he made the most of his half hour { of time on the radio to reading his | party's record during the last sesen vears and asking its retention in | power on that record. Also he lash- |ed again at the democrats on the | tatiff, declaring their proposal for |a “competitive” tariff was “no tar- iff at all.” He referred to Gov. Smith saying his Louisville declaration for | protection of American labor from | “ruinous competition” did not go far enough. “The republican party,” he said, wants to protect, and has protect- ed. American labor not only from ruinous competition but also from foreign competition of any kind.” The senator again referred to Governor Smith as “the distinguish- ed gentleman who thinks he is run- ning for president.” His enthusisstic Trenton audience was ready to {cheer at all times and gave this along with some remarks about the governor's tariff position a hand. “We have established a tariff for the protection of the American working man, the farmer and of in- dustry,” Curtis declared. “We have cut income taxes four times, we have relieved more than 2.000,000 tax payers from the neces- sity of making any tax payments We have reduced the national debt from $24,000,000,000 in tound awme bers in 1921 to $17,000,000,000 in We ask your vote oR i
