MRS. MOTT BEGINS
 SERVING SENTENCE
Rx Assnciated P-sss

Bridgeport, Conn.,, June 2.-Mrs. Ethel Hutchins Mott was taken to the state prison at wethersfield, late to day and began serving a sentence Of life imprisonment imposed by Judge Maltbie today, after she pleaded gull ty to murder in the second degree. The change in plea brought to a dramatic end the trial. which was in it's seventh day. The physical condition of the de- fendant was such that she had to be carried in and out of the courtroom. Mrs. Nott is 31 years old and has a daughter aged 1S and a son 12. After the sentencing of Mrs. Nott, the court accepted a-plea of guilty of mau- slaughter from John E. Johnston, who was indicted jointly with Mrs. Nott and Elwood B. Wade. for the murder of George B. Nott, in this city last August. Johnston was given one year in the county jail. He had aided the state in it's case against both Wade and Mrs. Nott.
 The evidence against Mrs. Nott, which brought the climax today in the trial came from cell in the death row at Wethersfeld After Wade was hanged two weeks ago the state ob- tained possession of about 50 let ters which had been written to him by Mrs Nott. Many of these, in pink en- velopes, were written while they were both in the local jail awaiting trial

DEPRESSION ENDED
Stability Needed Now, Asserts Head
 of Federal Reserve
By Associated Press

New York, June 2.-The business de- presson of 1921 has definitely passed and the financial condition of the coun- try is such now that it should inspire only optimism, W. P. c. Harding, gov ernor of the federal reserve board, de- clared today in an address before the annual meeting of the National Auto mobile Chamber of Commerce.
 The financial situation of the fed eral reserve system, is stronger than it ever has been and banks are anxious to lend money to legitimate business. Governor Harding said.
 "rhe public has a lot of buying peW- CT left. We want to get the people out of the idea that prices are going lower and lower." he asserted
 We should get some stability into the situation. Buying power begets buying power. When you start up one you automatically start up another.
 The federal reserve banks, whi 1Ii are the ultimate resource of all mem Der banks, and through them of the public, are in a position now better than ever before, to extend to all legit- innate business all assistance needed they are anxious for business to avail itself of their assistance"
 Charles Clifton of the Pierce-A Ar row Motor Car company, was elected president of the chamber.

 A subscription of $500,000 will be asked the executive committee an- nounced tonight, and the homes owned by the negroes will be reconstructed. No attempt will be made to rebuild the business buildings, many of which were owned by white persons, or homes which were rented, members said. The committee also voted to employ ,mme- diately as extra policemen 50 members of the American Legion. A sum for their pay for 30 days was appropriated after which efforts will be made to continue them with city funds.
 Thirteen bodies of negroes were buried in the city cemetery here today The act was without cere- mcny. it being said that feeling possi- bly, might flare up if the burial were attended by any ostentation. The bod ies were inferred in plain wodden bcxes.
 Tulsa tonight had regained it's nor nal appearance, the regular policemen patrolling the downtown district. and tho martial law declared yesterday was relaxed sufficiently to permit business houses and theatres to operate as usual
 About 250 national guardsmen were returned to their home stations to- night. leaving approximately 300 men in control of the area.
 Several thousand negroes today were released from supervision of the miii- tary, given badges inscribed police protection" and sent about their ac- customed duties.
 Whereabouts Still Unknown

There iS a police charge of assault in connection with alleged attentions of young white woman elevator operator here. Thirteen white men arrested here this afternoon were released after General Barrett investi- gated and concluded they had not been cting negro homes
 Mayor T. D. Evans tonight issued an order revoking all special police com missions. The mayor acted under in- structions from General Barrett, who stated that many of the ringleaders among the white rioters and men who did most of the shooting carried arms as special officers.
 military order tonight forbade hclding of funerals of those killed in the riot in churches.
 Owing to the present conditions in Tulsa and Tulsa county the order stated, funerals of those killed during the rioting will not be held in the churches of the city. Many of these churches are used as camps for the refugees, and it is against the policy of the military department to allow the uSe of same for funerals under. fhe conditions of emotional stress which still prevail within the city" .
 The Red Cross chaptA here has been reorganized to care for the thousands of homeless negroes and to facilitate the reunion of families broken by the day of chaos. Abundant funds have been pledged for this work.
