Would Take State Aid From Cities
 Saui11g Daylight

War has been declared on the day light saving forces of Connecticut by the small town representatives of the General Assembly. A faction com posed of small town and farmer leg isIators are devising drastic means for the punishment of municipalities for alleged fragrant violation of state statutes by the adoption of sun econ 'orny measures.
 The larger cities of the state, par ticuIar1y Bridgeport and Hartford, would be heavily hit by the passage of a bill which is to be introduced in the House today by Representative Samuel Russell, Jr of Middletown, president of the Farmers Legislative Association. He provides for the sus- pension of state aid to cities which have allowed daylight saving time to be effective in schools, contrary to the anti-daylight saving statute. Bridgeport is included in this class, and in the event. of the passage of the measure, the city would be the loser by several thousands of dollars There is little possibility; however, of the bill being successfully navigated over the legislative waters.

GRANT REQUEST OF RECEIVER IN
 SHELTON CASE

Judge John P. Kellogg yesterday afternoon handed down a decision that means another step, and a big one, towards the successful straight ening out of the affairs of the Shelton Bank & Trust company.
 Ex-Governor Marcus H. Holcomb last Friday during the short calendar session of Superior court made two requests, both of which were granted by the court. The first declares iIleg- al the dividend declared last Decem- Der, shortly $before the bank became involved in difficulties. This means that less money will actually be owed to depositors, for interest credited last December will not have to be paid.
 The most important part of the de- cision was that the receiver may sell or trade mortgages for money on de- posit, which will allow about SS3,O00 to indebtedness to be immediately wiped out, besides saving fees of about SS,30O that will not have to be paid the receiver. Although dis tinct loss to him the ex-Governor has fought hard to right the matters of the bank at the least possible expense to the depositors and directors.

 TESTIMONY

The contested divorce suit of Blanche M. Klauberg, Bridgeport, against William klauberg, head test CT at the Hare's Motor company ser vice station, was sensational in the extreme, much of the testimony be- ing of the sort to be unprintable.
 William klauberg, who still main- tains his home at Forest court, told on the witness stand this morn with men about the city that one time he found nine of them outside wait ing to get in. It was obvious that they thought the house of the sort that it should be located elsewhere.
 In a counter complaint Klauberg has named William Hamilton, who at the time the klaubergs separated Wa sa chauffeur for a well known Brid dgeport family. Klauberg told how he watched for fully a half hour at the corner of Park avenue and Brown and Hamilton talked He then approached the car and got in, to the surprise of his wife who turn ed as white as a sheet. He then invited Hamilton to go to Brooklawn and fight it out Hamilton, however didn't have any fight in him so Klau- berg slapped him as a primer. Even this wouldn't induce him to move so Klauberg walked home between the two women.

Bridgeport's baseball fanatics were Newfield park when the Bridgeport Brown Derbies were scheduled to meet Waterbury in the opening game, the hostilities being scheduled to start at 3:30.
 Joe" Cosgrove and his Waterbury club arrived at the Stratfield hotel at noon and the Bridgeport "pennant hopes" were also there on the dot, l:3O, the time fixed for the start of the parade. Eddie Hart, Waterbury's first sacker, who is a Bridgeport ath- lete, gave the shake to many friends to whom he ''kidded" the in- formation that the Brasscos would finish ahead of the Brown Derbies.
 Gene McCann, Bridgeport pilot heard some of this stuff and he re- taliated, ''Well, bo, you have another guess a-coming''
 but clouds and an easterly wind somewhat dfmmed the hopes of the local fans. However there was a. big crowd on the downtown streets. The order of march decided upon fol- lows:
 Motorcycle police platoon in com mand of Assistant Superintendent Tom Flood, Coast Artillery Band Of 36 pieces; Bridgeport club officials, including Clark P. Lane, president: Vice President James Reilly; Treasur- CT William B. Seiger and Secretary Jimmy Kelly.

Lack of Hose Responsible Two Companies Called From This. City to Fight Blaze,

Recent claims that more hose was needed by the Fair field fire department were substantiated this morning at 1O:15 when fire broke out in one of the large barns on the estate of Miss A. B. Jen- nings, on the Post road. The loss was estimated at S4,OOO.
 The fire was already well under way when the Fairfield fire depart ment was summoned and upon arrival they found they had not enough hose to reach from the hydrant on the Post road to the burning building 1000 feet away. Also that the pres sure was poor The fire headquarters in Bridgeport were notified and went to their assistance, with Engine com pany number eight, Packard pump and firemen from engine comInny number eleven.

WALSH SCORES TREATMENT OF
 SICK SOLDIERS

Washington, April 27-Patriotism and confidence in the government of the United States will be sacrificed unless this nation gives immediate justice to its war veterans, Senator David I: Walsh, Dem., Mass, declared in the Senate today
 Bitterly denouncing the methods which the government has adopted for the care of ex-service men, Senator Walsh declared that he has made a personal investigation of conditions and charges that invalid ex-service men have been and are today housed in so called hospitals under conditions that a self respecting community would not tolerate it's paupers to live"
 The government is caring better for immigrants who come to these shores than for it's ex-seryice men, Senator Walsh stated. He described cases of tuberculosis soldiers housed in the ''stuffy garret of a crowded building managed by a non physician" and told of filth which exists in other gov ernment institutions.

LABOR UNIONS
 HAVE RAISED WASTE CHARGE

Chicago, April 27-The railway la bor unions fighting wage reductions before the railroad labor board in creased their charges of waste and inefficiency on the part or railroad managements by a quarter billion Collars today, In a supplemental ex- hibit to that filed last week, setting forth alleged waste of a billion dol tars, the employees charge that pos, sible savings tota1ling $1,276, 500 900 could be effected by the roads If they would introduce modern meth ods in maintenance and operation
 The larger American railroads spent six billion dollars for operat- ing expenses last year, the exhibit showed.
 "It can be demonstrated that six billions is altogether too much to move the traffic in hand,' the re- port said, that failure to introduce savings rests primarily with railroad management and that the public ac- cordingly is not getting a dollars s
