Champion Liars
 Title Given To
 Boys By Police

Termed by the police, champion lairs," two boys later found out to be John Hughes, 305 Piedmont street, and John Strilasky, 542 Sylvan St., of Waterbury, sixteen and fifteen years of age respectively were pick ed up yesterday they were wander ing aimlessly around Water street.
 When taken into custody both boys refused to give any information con- corning themselves at first, but later they gave fictitious names. Hughes told the police that he came from Brooklyn, and that his mother and father were both dead and that he had been "bumnin' around" for the last seven years. Strilasky claimed that he could not remember his par ents, as they both died when he was young. He said that he had been living in an abandoned shack on the outskirts of Naugatuck and made his living doing odd chores for farmers.
 Their descriptions however tallied somewhat with one received from Waterbury telling of two boys leav- ing home and upon investigation by the Bureau of Missing Persons their rue identity was learned.

TURKISH WOMEN TRY
 TO REFORM MERE MAN
By International News service.)

(By International News Servtce.) Constantinople, May 5-Since they have had a touch and a sight of Paris and particularly of dances and
 dresses, Turkish women are making
 attempts to reform their male mas
 ters and are threatening to discard the tradition veil. Many have already done so, causing the chief of police
 to issue an edict proclaiming that women dancing in public .'disguised as Europeans" are liable to prosecu- tion.
 The younger generation of Turkish women have "dared"' to introduce fox trots shimm1es and waItzes in the city, shocking their elders.
 Turkish women's clubs are creep ing up everywhere, and tea dances, dinner dances and similar amuse- classes. In many homes veils have been done away with, and pretty Parisian evening dresses and walk tng-out costumes have replaced Turk ish draperies. One club has hired rooms for dancing where only com petent Europeans are allowed entry. This is considered a serious offense, and the population is astir as to what will happen to the guilty ones" when the chief of police carries out his threat to prosecute.

State Liquor
 Law Offenders Are Few Here

?Violators of the state lquor law in the city of Bridgeport are few and far
 between according to monthly re- port of police activities issued this morning. Although 415 arrests were made there were only twelve of this large number arrested for violation of the Volstead act.
 In April of 1921 there were -31 ar rests for violations of this law. Ac- cording to the statistics there were 415 arrests in April compared with PAS during the same month last year. however, is because of the strict manner in which the city ordinance concerning autom obile parkerS is be- ing enforced.
 There were 153 arrests last month for violation of that law while there were but six arrests for the same of fenSe in April of the preceding year ed by the records shows that the Americans seem to get in more trouble than the foreigners for violations of the law. There were PAP Americans arrested during the month compared to 154 foreigners of all nationalities and 19 negroes.
 In these days of prohibition, etc., it would be -amiss to leave out some comment concerning the number of trunks that have passed through the City court pen. The record shows that but 37 were arrested during the past month compared with over 100 in April of the year before A dance will be given May 17th in the International Institute bv inc members of the Italian women's council.
