Lila Had Good Reputation eREL d Arthur C.

Fail to Fix Procedure ‘Washington, March 31 (A—TFor the third time house republican leaders failed today to reach an agreement upon a plan of procedur> for consideration of the tariff bill before sending it to the conference with the senate. Another meeting of the steering and rules committee groups was called for later in the day when it was predicted an arrangement sat- isfactory to all groups’ within re- publican ranks would be formulated. ‘While the leaders declined to say what differences remained to be ironed out before the measure could be taken up on the floor, it was in- dicated that the demands of west- ern republicans that the house ac- cept the higher sehate agricultural rates was creating some of the diffi- culty. Tilson Expects Delay Representative Tilson, of Connec- ticut, the majority leader, said he did not believe the bill would reach the floor before Thursday as the rule finally agreed upon must lay over a day before it can be taken up. “We are making progress,” was all the republican leader would say after the hour and a half session before the house met. Chairman Snell of the rules com- mittee predicted an agreement would be reached today, but declin- ed to say whether there would be any separate votes on such contro- versial rates as those on cement, sugar and lumber. While they entertain little doubt that the house conferees would ac- cept the higher senate agriculture schedule, the western republicans wish to have this concurred in by the house to climinate any possibil. ity of a *trade” in conference. Representative Simmons, republi- can, Nebraska, said: “I favor the house accepting the senate agricultural rates befors sending the bill to’' the conference. I have no doubt that the confer ence committee would accept the higher farm duties in the senate biil but if they do they will probably trade on something else.” House Procedure Doubtful Washington, March 31 (P—House | leaders today sought an agreement for procedure on the ftariff bill while the probability grew that the measure would be sent to conference without separate action on any of the many senate amendments. How soon the measure could be sent to conference for the purpose of composing the many differences in the senate and house bills doo pended on when an agreoment on procedure could be reached. The steering committee was called into session today to consider the | question for the third time. Its ac- tion must be ratified, in offect by the rules committee which will adopt a “rule” embodying the pro- cedure to be followed. This must “lie onl the table” for 24 hours be- fore the house can act. Thus, it ap- peared that the bill could not be sent to conference before the mid- dle of the week. Sugar Group Hopeful The western group, composed largely of members from the beet sugar producing states, favored thd 2.40 cents a pound sugar levy ap- proved by the house, as opposed to, the two cent figure voted into the bill by the senate. By preventing a separate vote before the conference, it expected the ultimate adoption of a compromise rate higher than the senate figure. The present rate on sugar is 1.76 cents a pound. Representative Cramton, republi- can, Michigan, a prominent figure | in the western bloc, claimed that it commanded 50 or 60 votes from 13 beet sugar states. Ie opposed a separate ballot on sugar on the ground that such an action would be discriminatory, since no separate votes are planned on other agricul- tural commodities, Ask Congressional Supremacy Senators George of Georgia and Wagner of New York, both demo- crats. appealed last night for reten- tion by the conference of the sen- ate amendment giving to congress the authority to change rates now vested in the president wunder the flexible provisions of the present laws. George said the senate upon this amendment. Wagner at- tacked as contrary to American practice a compromise suggested by | Vandenberg, republican, Michigan, under which the president would be empowered to change rates when congress is not in ses- sion, his action subject to later con- gressional approval. insisted Senate Secks Other Fields Washington, March 31 (UP)— Senate leaders prepared today for a final two months' drive to dispose of the mass of urgent legislation which has piled up behind the re- cently-passed tariff bill. They hope to adjourn by June 1. Beginning with the Norris Muscle Shoals bill tomorrow, after a weck's rest, the leaders plan to bring up in rapid succession the regular ap- propriation bills, the Williamson bill to transfer prohibition enforce- ment from the treasury to justice department, and the bill to reorgan- ize the federal power commission. The program has been cut to the bone =o that the session can be end- ed early and members of congress secking re-clection can return home to mend political fences. | Expect Muscle Shoals Fight | Two of the measures on the pro- | gram, the Muscle Shoals bill and | the Williamson bill, are expected to | stimulate prolonged debhate. The Muscle Shoals bill will bring | April | Yarnell | Chewink sue involving Chairman Claudius Huston, of the republican national committee, and his handling of funds for the Tennessee River Im- provement association. This association, formerly headed by Huston, has led the lobby against the Norris bill, providing for gov- ernment operation of the Shoals power plant. It has yrged enactment of the Madden-Wright bill. This would turn the government's $100,- 000,000 power plant over to the American Cyanamid company. Testimony before the senate lobby committee has shown that Huston accepted $36,100 from the Union Carbide company for the improve- ment association and used it to bol- ater his marginal stock account be- fore turning it over to the associa- tion. This led to widespread demands for Huston's resignation. He, mean- while, has insisted he will not re- sign, but in the face of authentic reports that President Hoover wants his resignation, Huston was expected today to make some move before long. May Take Up Prohibition Senate leaders hoped to dispose of the Norris bill before the end of this week. Then the prohibition bill probably will be the next major measure before congress. Tt will pro- vide the opportunity for a long pent-up senate debate on the prohi- bition situation. The nomination of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina to the su- preme court bench likewise awaits senate action. A vigorous fight over his confirma- tion is expected in view of organ- ized labor's opposition to him. Meanwhile the lobby committee’s investigation was expected today to continue through most of the rest of the session. Senator Robinson, republican, Tnd, a member of the committee, has announced he will call John J. Raskob, chairman of the democratic national committee, to testify about prohibition lobby- ing. GRAND JURY VOTES T0 CONTINUE QUIZ Ruling in Batterson Case Fails to Halt Liquor Probe Hartford, March 31 (®—The spe- cial grand jury will continue its in- vestigation of liquor conditions. This was the declsion made today at a meeting of thé jury. State's At- torney Hugh M. Alcorn and County Detective Edward J. Hickey were in the grand jury room for three-quar- ters of an hour. Following their appearance several subpoenas for witnesses were made out and were to be served today. There was keen interest today in the decision of the jury as it went into session, because the members felt themselves somewhat blocked in their investigation by the decision of Judge Newell Jennings, who last Tuesday ruled that Mayor Walter E. Batterson cquld not be required to tell through' whom he purchased liguor. The mayor held that to do so might incriminate himself. Both the mayor and Ex-Senator Edward M. Allen appeared before the grand ju a week ago today, and at that time Mr. Allen refused to say whether or not he was the friend through whom the mayor purchased liquor. e based his refusal on the same grounds as did the mayor. In announcing his decision, Judge Jennings told the jury that if this seriously hampered the inquiry they could so report to him and he would discharge them. Zito Case Defendants To Face Trial in April New Haven, March 31 (UP) — Three men indicted on charges of first degree murder in connection with the $20 slaying of Dominick Zito, 19 year old bootlegger and counterfeiter, will go on trial in the term of criminal superior court, State’s Attorney Samuel E. Hoyt announced today. Arthur Brown, 20, who allegedly confessed to the killing, Orazio Maltese, gang leader who is charged with hiring Brown to do the shoot- ing. and Vincenzo Pero, who reput- edly helped conceal the crime, are the three who will be tried. Brown was reported by police to have said he obtained $15 in cash and a $5 Western Union money order for the slaying. Three Admirals Ordered Home From Naval Parley London, ‘ March 31 (®—Charles Francis Adams, secretary of the navy and a member of the United States delegation at the London naval con- | ference, today ordered the return of tear Admirals W. A. Moffett, H. E. and J. E. Pringle to the United States. Secretary Adams made the deci- sion after several days of consulta- tion with his colleagues, deciding that sufficient technical work had been done to permit the officers, who had been technical advisers to the delegation, to return home. It has not yet been dotermined if the services of Rear Admiral A. J. Hep- burn can be dispensed with so he can return with the others. The officers probably will sail on the George Washington April 11. Enfield to Celebrate Its 250th Anniversary Thompsonville, March 31 (®—The general committee has chosen June 26, 27 and 28 as the dates for the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the settlement of Enficld A pageant with 400 characters de< picting the town's history since its settlement, in 1680, is a feature planned by the committee. Commu- nity concerts, commemorative exer- cises of a sermon by Jonathan Ed- wards, and civic and industrial pa- rades are also on the program.

QUIGLEY RIDICULES DEMOCRATIC RIVAL (Continued From First Page) perience as an accountant, of his of- fice organization, available for city work, and of his experfence in the office. He also asked that the full republican ticket be elected, remflnq- ing his audience of newspaper arti- cles which, he said, give sufficient proof of the kind of cooperation he will get if the republican ticket in full is not elected. Mr. Barlett, the next speaker, ask- ed his supporters to consider the primary at an end, and to get behind the ticket headed by Mr. Quigley who, he said, has experience in offica and has the requisite ability. 1~ in- troduced the candidate as “the next mayor of New Britain.” Addresses Polish-American Club Former Mayor Quigley opened his campaign in the fifth ward at the regular monthly meeting of the Po- lish-American Republican club last night at the Falcon hall on Beaver street. About 300 members and friends of the club attended. B. A. Grzybowski, president, was the pre- siding officer. In presenting the candidate on the republican ticket Mr. Grzybowski reminded the audience of the fact that the nominee was the only re- publican mayor who carried the fifth ward. The candidate cut short his ad- dress because of the hoarseness in his voice but indicated that he was in faver of tax reduction. He would introduce economy in the city’'s ex- penditures, he said. Dr. John J. Tokarczyk and Walter Zajkowski, candidates for common council, asked the support of the people and they claimed they were capable of filling the posts if they were elected. Attorney B. J. Monkiewicz, repub- lican chairman of the ward predict- ed that the ward has never looked more promising for a victory than it does in this election and there is no question that it will give a republi- can majority. Stanley Karpinski spoke of the park question. Mr. Grzybowski at the conclusion of the meeting said in behalf of the club “with the republican party be- hind Quigley for mayor, Alderman Peter J. Pajewski for the school board and Dr. Tokarczyk and Mr. Zajkowski for councilmen, all pow- erful and well known candidates to all voters in the ward, there is no question that the fifth ward will go republican.” A combined meeting of the Po- lish-American Republican club and the Polish Political Club No. 1 will be held Thursday night at 7:30 at the Falcon hall, it was announced by Mr. Grzybowski and Joseph Ko- zakewicz, presidents of the respec- tive clubs after a special session. A rally will be held tomorrow night at 7:30 at the Falcon hall for all the republican voters in the ward, Hart Warns of Rabies; 3 New Cases in State Chief W. C. Hart of the police de- partment today called the attention of owners of dogs to the necessity of keeping their pets tied or inside their own property because of the danger of a rabies epidemic. Dog Warden Thomas Rouskie will pick up dogs found wandering about the city beyond calling distance of the owners, Chief Hart said. Hartford, March 31 () — Three additional cases of rabies have been reported to Commissioner of Do- mestic Animals Charles L. Johnson, bringing the total number of cases reported in the state to 22, the most serious outbreak of rables among household pets which has come to the attention of the state department in many years. It has not yet been decided order a state wide quarantine of dogs, but this may be done by the end of the week if the disease con- tinues to spread. Keys to Reform School Are Thrown Into Dump Officer Daniel J. Cosgrove brought a boy to the police station Saturday on complaint that a bunch of keys had been stolen from the State School For Boys at Meriden, and the lad admitted that he had taken them and thrown them away. He said he was a former inmate of the school and returned Saturday to get a reed for his clarinet, having been a member of the band during his stay there. The bandmaster was out of the room for a few minutes, leaving the keys in sight, so he took them. The police found two keys in a dumping grounds, where they had been tossed. The keys which were taken could open practically every door in the state school, the police said. Two Men Killed When Sedan Hits Pole Today Troy., N. Y..
