Eleven bullets from automatic pistols drilled into him. When he tell, in the fingers of her right hand still was clutched the stem of his wine glasd. The bowl had been shattered by bullets. Lolordo’s assassination was a se- quel, as are all Clicago gang and Mafia slayings; but whether it was a sequel to the murder of Tony Lombardo last fall, to blackhand operations of recent months, or to some unexplained gang hatred, police were not prepared to say. Has Witness They were looking, however, for Joe Aiello, oldest of seven brothers' ‘whose participation in gang violence has come under police scrutiny several times in the past, John Stege, deputy police commissioner, said he had a witness who ident:%ed Alello as one of the three men in the room when Lolordo wag slain, Detectives were still at the Lo- lordo flat, questioning ILolordo's grief-destracted widow, when an- other gang shooting left Rocce Mag- #io severely wounded in his parked #utomobile.

Po- lice believed the two assassinations. were cannected, but in what manner they could not say. There was even one report that Joe Lolordo was in The room wh . his brother was shot, and that h~ was wounded. His wife vefuted this, ving he had been out of town several days. 43 Years Ol Pasqualine Lolordo, who wae 43 Years old, was described to police as the uncrowned hut powerful succes- kor to Tony Lombardo in the affairs uf the Unione Siciliano. His widow said she knew only that he was an olive oil dealer and that she had no knowledge of any other activities in ‘which he may have becn engaged. | An 18 year old son, Vincent, is a | #tudent at the University of Illinois. When police phoned him at Urbana last night they said his first words ivere: “Did somebody kil my | Tather?” i Mrs, Lolordo said she had scen two of the three slayers at least 20 times before, but that she did not know | their names. They frequently came to the beautifully furnished flat in the severely plain brick structure on West North avenue, where her hus- band had many visitors. | At the sound of shots, following so closely upon laughter and gay talk, Mrs. Lolordo ran from the kitchen nto the room where her husband's hody lay. The three men brushed past her as they ran. Two pistols were found on the stairs leading to the flat when police arrived shortly ufterward. | Convicted Murderer Rocco Maggio, shot in approved RFunman fashion several hours nficrl the Lolordo killing, was convicted a few years ago of the murder of Frank Lamacchio, one of the first Chicago gang victims ever “taken for | ® ride.” The testimony was that Maggio held Lamacchio and another | man shot him. Maggio was sentenc- | ed to life imprisonment, but was granted a new trial which has never leen held. 108 ANGELES. Washington, Jan. 9.—(®—The dirigible Los Angeles en route to!

NEW ERITAIN STOVE REPAIR CO. 66 Lafayette St. Tel. 772 New York, Jan. 9 UM—The auc- tion~of rare books for a total value of $273,952.50 at the Anderson gal- leries last night was believed by booksellers to have established a record for a single session book sale in this country. The collection was the property of Jerome Kern, composer, and the greater part of the money was paid for 113 Dickens items. The three messions of the Kern sale have brought $615,387 to date and it is believed the remaining seven will send the total far past the million dollar mark set before the huction began. The highest price, and declared by booksellers to be a new world record, was $28,000 paid by Alwin| J. Scheuer for a “perfect” copy of Dickens' “Pickwick Papers” in parts. the Kern copy was bought in 1920 | by Gabriel Wells, New York dealer, | from the London firm of Herry | Sotheran & Co., for $3,500, the value of the book rising 800 per | cent in about nine years. FIRE BOARD MAKES | NEW SAFETY MOVE Would Synchronize Amber Tral- fic Lights and Alarm System | A system whereby the amber-col- | ored traffic lights would flash simul- taneously with the sounding of the | fire siren was proposed st a meet- | ing of the board of fire commission- | ers last night by Commissioner Har- | ry Beckwith and the matter will be | studied and discussed with the po- lice department within the near fu- ture. | Commissioner Beckwith pointed to the fact that the system is in vogue in large cities and that it would add greatly to efficiency at time of fire. His fellow commissioners agreed with him that the plan would be a 800d one and it was the general im- pression that the cost of the ar- rangement would not be prohibitive. The matter will be.taken up with the police department. Objects to Fire Siren Mr. Beckwith later in the meet- ing objected to the siren because of its weird sound. He said there is an arrangement of bells at the center which warns policemen that a clear road through traffic is desired. Oth- er commissioners pointed out the fact that these bells are of no value to out-lying strects where the siren is heard. Members of the board had a final discussion on the budget and it was voted to authorize the budget com- mittee to jnclude the salary sched- ule and forward the budget to the printers. The budget will be presented to the board of finance and taxation at a February meeting. It embraces expenditures of $98,572.25. Practically the only matter in the budget discussed was a proposal to recommend the purchase of an au- tomobile for Chief W. J. Noble at & cost of approximately $3,600. The automoblle now in use would be used by the assistant chiefs while they are on duty during the day and the master mechanic and his assis- tant while théy are on'duty at night. Only those who are on duty would be allowed to use the car. It was proposed that pensions be of a; {of 24 Milles completed | the present system of presenting badges of authority to newspaper men and others eligible to pess through the lines at a fire was de- cided upon.

NO INDORSERS REQUIRED The Mutual System Room 203, 300 MAIN STREET New Leonard Buflding TELEPHONE 4950 be . presented |- At a meeting of the directors of the City National bank yesterday.a women's advisory Board consisting of seven prominent women of the city was appointed to serve for a period of one year. The members of the board are: s Miss Catherine E. Finnegan, Mrs. William C. Hungerford, Mrs. Harold L. Judd, Miss Wanda C. Lagosh, Mrs. Alexander J, Leventhal, Mrs, Howard 8. Parsons, Mrs. Kenneth H. Wal- ther, ! Mrs. Walther us:vice chairman, and Miss Lagosh as secretary. “The organisation of a women's advisory board by the City Natlonsl bank is a new departure in banking circles in this vicinity but similar boards have been operating as part of the organization of banks in New York, Boston and other cities for a number of years where - they have proved beneficial both to the women of the city, and to the bank," Presi- @ent Paul K. Rogers said today. “It is no longer an unusual thing for women to take an interest in banking and _banking methods, It will be the purpose of the women's board of this bank to help all women to acquaint themselves with the serv ices the bank has to offer both for checking and savings accounts, and to eliminate the feeling some women have had that banking is chiefly for business concerns. “Members of the advisory board will be glad to be of assistance to any woman who wishes to start an account at the bank and also will be pleased to present new customers to the officers so that at any time they can feel at liberty to call on the officers for advice or information which otherwicc & woman sometimes hesitates to do."
