WILL FIND THAT LEMKE WAS NOT MURI ZRED Official inquiry into the death eof 21-year-old John W. Lemke, whese body clad in woman's clothes, was found in his motor boat off College Point, L. I, Oct. 19th, was ended Zuesday. It is said that when District Attorney Dennis O'Leary .of = Queens county makes public his findings. will show that oo indications of mur- der were found. All officials connect- ed with the inquiry are satisfied that death was self-inflicted. Dr. Morris believes it is 2 case of more than ordinarily interesting psy- chopathic problem .of cross dressing, or transvestism, as technical phrasing has it. Dr. Morris: says: “Persons afflicted with the strange mental mal- ady of eross dressing when their im- perative desire for the cross dress (that is, for man to wear woman's clothes, and vice versa) are interfered with, may commit suicide unless thelr impulses -are Lemke was.known in New London for he was stationed at the submarine ‘base at Groton for some time when he was in the navy.

The claimaint did not appear at the hearing. The . commissioners’ record of the case states.that a New London atiorney who was mmde administra- tor of the Lawrence Seeley estate had been given time to 160k up the ques- tion of dependency, but did not ap- pear at the hearing of which he had ‘had notiee.

SUGAR BOARD SAVED CONNECTICUT HONEY BEES Approximately one hundred and twenty million lives were saved, in Connecticut alone, by prompt action this fall of the sugar equalization board. No, these were not human They belonged to honey bees. Probably this is not a third or even a fourth of the total bee population of Connecticut. It represents only that portion which obtained additional foodstores to carry the bees over the winter. The bees thus provided for, live in about four thousand colonies, cach colony being- housed in a single hive. “There has been some complaint be- cause bees could get sugar when lives.

It savoreq of “class fayorit- ism” to some. The sugar equalization board, which had charge of the sugar situation of the nation, decided that the economic loss of a large part of the nation’s bee population would be more disastrous than temporary in- convenience of a few human beings. After all, the 40,000 ‘pounds of sugar that went to feed Cofmecticut bees wouldn't go yery far if divided among the million and a half or two million citizens of the state, it is pointeq cut. Professor L. B, Crandall, hee: spe- cialist for Connecticut Agrieultural College, who had charge of the dis- tribution of the sugar allotment in this state, says that the 40,000 pounds are exhawsted. Sugar was supplied in lots averaging about ten pouhds o the colony to some 4,000 coloniés of bees, .397 beekeepers receiving the su- gar in trust for their bees. Mr. Crandall has been compiling a list of all beekeepers of the state and estimates that there are more than 1200 of them. A new state law re- quires that every beekeeper, whether he owns one colony or a hundred, must register his colonies with the town clerk. When this registration® is compiled it will be possible to esti- mateé fairly accurately the total bee population of Connecticut, ants other than Margaret V.
