TO RATIFY
SUFFRAGE,
PERHAPS
Legislative Session May Do
That Little Thing IF Gov

Especial to The Tim es.,

Hartford, Sept. SIT was said at
the Office of the Governor today the
matter Of the ratification Of the Suf-
frage amendment to the United States
Constitution might be acted upon by
the special session of the legislature
week after next-if 1t is convened
provided Governor Holcomb sends a.
message to the session on the matter.
No intimation was given whether or
not the Governor would send such a
message.
That statement makes it appear,
however, that the Governors advisers
or the Governor himself. have decid-
ed that the emergency session could
not, under the call for the session. act
upon the matter of ratification. If it
could not under the call there would
be no need of a special message to

OF WIFE,
AT BOTTOM OF
MURDER trunk

When the body Of George E. Mott, of
rs Judson avenue was packed into 4
trunk after the murder in the Mott
home Sunday morning ,Elwood B.
Wade, the alleged slayer, who is said
to have placed the body in the trunk,
possibly with the assistance of Mrs.
Ethel Hutchinson Mott, used great
care that the remains should not be
discovered by any person who hap
pened to peer casually into the recep-
tacle.
In addition to covering the body
with bed clothes and lace curtains,
someone placed in the trunk a guam
tity of china, each piece carefully
wrapped in paper, a picture Of Mrs.
Mott, a sheet of music, newspaper,
a copy of Golfers magazine dated
August % and number of household
articles. To the chance observer the
trunk would have appeared innocent
enough, presumably having been
packed in preparation for moving
These facts were brought out yes
terda,y afternoon, when Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Earle Garlick
fished the cabinet photograph Of Mrs.
Mott from the bottom of the Easton
swamp where the death trunk was de-
posted by Wade and John E. John
ston. The music, newspaper, and
magazine were also recovered from
the stagnant pool during the course of
the search.
Prosecutor Garlick, who has worked
increasingly on the murder case, both
in his office and on the outside, was
with Superintendent Flanagan, Cap
tain John H. Regan and young john
ston yesterday afternoon, when the
party went to the swamp in search of
a bajby's quilt which is said to be a
most important piece of evidence.
The prosecutor, forming the last link
of a human chain composed of the
superintendent and Johnston, dragged
the bottom of the muck with rake
| and brought to light the picture, al
most undanaged and the other arti-
cles- The quilt, however, was not
found.

Saws Communication
aiSe Is Illegal

Edward W. Yeomans of Andover
federal referee in bankruptcy for this
district, has entered a protest with
the New Haven road officials over the
increase in Communication rates. In a
letter to the road in behalf of himself
and his clients, Mr.. Yeomans pointed
out that such an increase was con-
trary to Section 3775 on the general
statutes of Connecticut. which says
that communication rates may not be
increased if they have been in force
for four years. except for. regulation
of the price, and such price shall in
no case be raised to an extent that
shall after the ratio as it existed on
July 1. 1865, between such commuta-
ton and the rates then charged for
way fares on the rail1Oad of said COM

CHILDREN MAY
HAVE NO SCHOOL

South Norwalk, Conn, Sept. B
Norwalk's $500 school children have
every prospect of going without edu-
cation this year. Not one teacher
in Norwalk has signed a contract
with the Board of Education, giving
as their reason the refusal of the
Board of Estimate and Taxation to
appropriate sufficient money to pay
the salaries fixed by the Board of
Education, in tentative contracts of
fered them last June.
Mayor jeremiah Donovan has re-
fused to call special meeting of the
Estimate Board to appropriate sufi-
cient money to meet the salaries de-
manded by the teachers association
Of this city. Parents of school chill
dren and the American Legion are
to take the matter up with the State
Board of Education, it was stated
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-09-03

Mr.. Yeomans received a reply from
the New Haven road Wednesday in
which he says that the railroad is ap-
parently trying to claim that it still
has authority to increase the fares
regardless of state laws under the pro-
visions of the Termination of Fed
eral Control Act.' According to Mr.
Yeomans this is on the basis on a
state of war and if the increase is
made on that basis, that increase
must be removed at some future time
Communication rates were increased
10 per cent. during the war and on
Aug. 26 they were increased 20 per
cent. more, making a total increase
of 80 per cent. over the rates of a few
years ago. According to Mr.. Yeomans
these are the only increases in intra-
state Communication rates since 1868.

the day is coming when commun-
ism, sweeping through L rope and
enlisting the eastern nations IN
the movement would meet Great
Britain and America in mortal con-
flict are outstanding points In a
long communication to the British
Independent labor party from the
third internationale at Moscow,
quoted by the London Times.
The communication was made
in reply to twelve questions sent
to the Moscow internationale by
the Independent labor party. one
of these questions was:
How does communism differ
from other forms OF socialism ?"
To this the following reply was
made:
There are no other forms,
There is only communism. What
ever else goes under the name of
socialism is either wilful deception
by the lackeys of the bourgeoise
or self-delusion by persons who
hesitate to choose between the
proletariat and the bourgeoisie.'
Another answer reads in part:
at is most unlikely the bour-
geoisie will surrender its power
without a struggle. Therefore the
workers of Great Britain should
prepare not for an easy parlia-
mentary victory but for q victory
BY a heavy civil war"
Civil war" world revolution"
and profound distrust of parlia-
mentary action appear in several
of the answers. The concluding
part of the document as quoted by
the Times says:
