John Wallis
 Bound Over
 to May Term

When arraigned in the City court this morning on charge of obtaining money under false pretenses John Wallis of New Haven through his at torney ex-mayor Clifford B. Wilson waived examination and was bound over to the May term of the Criminal Superior court, under bonds fo $5,000. Altogether there are eight charges against Wallis ranging from obtaining money under false pretenses to swind- ling.
 Wallis is alleged to be the president of the Industrial Finance and Mort gage Company of which Thomas L.. Caskey, Assistant Principal of the Bridgeport High school was treasurer. Wallis was first arrested after a complaint had been made to Assistant Prosecutor Vincent Heating by Frank Wells, a, 61-year-old farmer of Trum- bull, who alleged that he had been swindled out of S21,000.
 Two more complaints were made the next day, one by Leon Mcdonald of State street who alleged that Wal lis had defrauded him out of S1, 050 in two worthless stock transactions, and another by the law firm of Shapiro and Shapiro receivers for the bank rupt Ruskay Co. who a1lege that they have Wallis check for $400 which he has never honored. Wallis is alleged to have borrowed this sum from W. H. Hasse, former manager of the local branch of the s. s. Ruskay com pany.

Fifty Added To Force At
 Lake Plant

Fifty men have been added to the working force of the Lake Torpedo plant to assist in the repair work of the S-4S which sunk off Penfie1d. Light last winter. The S-4S is still in New London undergoing repairs and is ex- pected to be back in Bridgeport by April 1.
 Assistant Superintendent Varney stated today that as long as there is work at the plant the men will be kept. He said that the force is being cut every day due to the fact that the company has no further orders for submarines from the government.
 The sub S-49 is tied up at the Lake company's Seaview avenue dock un dergoing repairs to her engines A the last trial test the boat was forced to put in before the time allotted was completed, and government officials said that the boat would not be ac- cepted until certain changes were made.
 After the present contract with the government is finished the destiny of the Lake plant will be in the balance. The company will attempt to get con- tracts for subs from foreign govern ments, it is said.
