She grappled with him and two of the shots went wild, but one furrowed the top of her head. Bhe said she started to scream and Gentilesco turned the gun on him- self. He fell to the floor she raid, According to the medical examiner death was instantaneous. Gentilesco left his home early this morning ostenisibly to go to his business. His wife left a short time later to attend mass at St. Anthony’s church and at the time of the at- tempted killing and suicide was in the church. The gun used was one that was owned by Frank Ruggiero, a partper of Gentilesco. A permit had been securcd by Ruggiero to keep the gun. It was learned that Gentilesco was a close friend of Mrs. Farrara, whose husband is now serving a sentence in state's prison of one to two years for violation of a statutory act. Deputy Coronor James J. Corrigan ‘who opgned a probe into the shoot- ing said he had found that the fruiterer had withdrawn sums of money from his account , recently. No one in the apartment house could say today ‘ whether or not they had ever seen : Gentilesco there before.

INERVOUS SELLING UPON CURB MARKET Trading Dull, Prices Down, With Call Money Fixed New York, May 2 (A—The curb market encountered considerable nervous selling today, attributed to comparatively stringent credit con- ditions, with call money still at 10 per cent, and expectation of a sub- stantial gain in brokers loans, to be announced after the close. The course of prices, however, continued irregularly upward. Trading turncd dull on declines, falling off consid- erably from the rapid pace of ycs- terday. Ttility stocks after some early ii- regularity generally sought higher levels. American Superpower issues shot up 6 and 7 points on the grant- ing of rights to purchase more of its holdings of United Corp. stock at $30 a share, Lut the gains were not maintained. Electric Bond and Share, Electric Investors, Penn Ohio Edison, and United Corp. all made moderate headway. Allied Powcr was firm, reflecting the acquisition of a large block by United Corp. South- cast Power was"a soft spot, losing 2 points. Aluminum Co. was again strong, moving up about 7 points at one time and U. 8.

Fokker sold up more than 3 points, while Bendix Aviation, Bendix Corp., Universal and Aviation Corps, made moderate gains, Western Air Express ran into profit taking, losing more than 3 points.

No one com- plained that the taxation hindered growth—indeed, prosperity is on every hdnd. This tax system which was devised and put in operation during the republican administratiof has adequately taken care of the state’s needs since that time, and has also provided a sinking fund en- tirely ample to retire Connecticut's Lbonds when they become due.” Bond Issues “Burden” He believed hond issues would be an “ultimate burden to the taxpay- er,” for if bonds were issued for all capital outlay needed within the next biennium and they were paid off at the rate of $1,000,000 a year, the taxpayers would be forced to pay $2,200,000 in interest alone. This, he said, would not be justified. He cited the various improvements Never Never too strongly early portunities. that you may be’ looking plicated. colored tag, as follows.

All our improve- ments call for only a small direct tax of $1,500,000." He attacked Senator Hackett's as- sertion that it is not fair to make the present generation pay all the cost for improvements and buildings to be used by succeeding generations by saying that everything planned will be used in its entirety by the presnt generation and ‘“besides the next generations will have greater burdens than we to face in their time just as we face greater bur- dens than our fathers.” Christ Answers Argument Senator Hackett repeated his ar- guments, made before the finance committee yesterday, and cited the municipal plan of issuing bonds as an indication there is approval in the state of the democratic proposal. This argument was answered by Senator Christ, who said that the only reason municipalities were al- lowed to issue bonds for capital out- lay is that their needs exceed their income and as these needs are pressing, bonds must be issued, Senator Conroy called the ‘*pay as you go" policy a “go as you pay” ARTFORD policy, and expressed the opinion that the state is becoming backward because of the limitations imposed by this policy. Senator Peasley replied by saying that “nobody has yet been repudi- ated for paying his bills as he went along. It is sound and there are no bad memories.” House Eattles Violently A violent battle in the house over the appropriations committee’s un- favorable report on the bill appropri- ating, $400,000 for transportation of elementary school children, describ- ed as aiding small towns' educa- tional problems, ended, after a rol vote against rejection of the bill, a compromise of $258,000 and pass- age of the bill. The defeat of the appropriations committee—in that it was forced to accept the education committees offer of compromise, after this com- mittee had received the support of the dirt road adherents, retaliating for their own defeat in an effort to get through a $1,000,000 appropria- tion for dirt roads—was effected by a vote of 169 to 74. Mrs. Lewis of Stratford, house ed- ucational chairman, had moved a di- vision of the question and before the roll call vote, the house had ac- cepted the appropriations unfavor- able report. A long debate then ensued on the question of rejection. This was voted down by the roll call vote of 169 to 74. Mrs, Lewis then moved suspension of the rules and passage of the bill. House Chairman Clark of appropria- tions, after a consultation with Sen- ator Christ of New Britain, semate chairman and House Leader Johnson Wise Smith & Go. — of Manchester, offered to accept the compromise of $278,000.. The bill was passed. . Defeated The roll call vote against rejec- tion, by counties, follows: Hartford, 15 aye, 27 no; New Ha- ven 23 aye, 14 no; New London, & aye; 24 no; Fairfield, 14 aye, 16 no; Windham, one aye, 22 no; Litch. field, 8 aye, 31 no; Middlesex, 5 aye, - 16 no; Tolland, 2 aye, 19 no. The debate on the bill was open- ed by Mr. Clark of Haddam, in his speech espousing the approprlallo 1 ] committee's rejection of the eduta- tion commiitee’s recommendation, He offered as the reason for the un.- favorable report, the fact that $6,- 885,000 will be the total educational expenditures this year, and said that 20 per cent of all state income, out- side of motor vehicle department re- ceipts, was being used for education. He cited figures for various schools and said they were *exceptionally high.” COLLEGE EXAMS TRYOUTS The first try-out for college ene trance examination in English will be held in Room 28 of the academis building of the Senior High school on Saturday, May 4, from 9 until 13 o'clock daylight saving time.
