old, farmer of Middlebury, VT, will
walk on August 15 for the first time

cast extending from his feet to his
shoulder blades is removed, according
to the report Of his case submitted to
the United Hospital Fund by the Hos
pital for Ruptured and Crippled, 321
East Forty-second Street.
His was the earliest case of infan-
tile paralysis to be reported in Yer

cure him, bat these were abandoned
after few years, his case being con-
sidered hopeless. Last July he was
examined by DR.. Robert Lovett, Of
Boston, and it was decided to turn him
over to one of the United Hospital
Fund institutions. On December 19
he was brought to the Hospital for
Ruptured and Crippled. DIR. Armitage
Whitman, of 283 Lexington Avenue,
operated on both ankles and hips,
strengthening and stretching the legs.
Mr.. Birge and his sister own a
sixty-acre farm in Vermont, producing
poultry, dairy products, fruits and ber-
ries. He has supported his sister and
himself by farming and by selling
produce for the neighboring farmers.

Two and Is Shot
Home After Day of Liquor
Hunting, He Plays Tag,
Gets Put Out of Cafe
and Starts ON Rampage
Claases Negroes in House
Children Trail as He Wounds
Peacemaker and Fights
With Another Patrol,man

David A. Owens, patrolman Of the
Harbor Squad, who had spent the day
hunting bootleggers, turned up drunk
on West Fifty-ffth Street about .. m
yesterday in plain clothes, played tag
with children and finally, becoming in
censed when invited to leave restau-
rant, shot up the block between Eighth
and Ninth avenues.
One OF his bullets struck William ]
Luce, waiter, Of 334 West Fifty-fifth
Street, near the heart. Another broke
the right arm OF Patrolman Bernard J
Greene, of the West Forty-seventh
Street police station. Owens himself
was shot by Greene as the latter lay
wounded in the street, the bullet go
ing through Owens's abdomen. All
three of the wounded men are in
Roosevelt Hospital.
At midnight Owens had not yet been
examined by a Police Department sur
geon and his intoxication was not a
matter of record, but ste. .ements made
by residents of West Fifty-ffth Street
made it clear that no other explanation
except that Of insanity would account
for his actions.
Played Tag With Children
He was noticed first about o'clock,
lurciling, unsteady figure, careening
aimlessly through the street. Boys
and girls tagged him, and Owens ac-
nature. Before long he was engaged
in game of tag with the children, who
shricked with laughter at his ungainly
attempts to catch them.
Nothing in this game aroused Owens's
resentment, and he was grinning
broadly, If vacantly, as he staggered
into the Francis Restaurant, at 319
West Fifty-hfth Street. Half falling
into chair, he mopped his streaming
brow with napkin and peered unsuc-
cessfully at menu card which he held
upside down.
The proprietor bent over the new
guest. His words could not be heard
by the others in the place, but later Mr..
Francis said he had suggested to the
stranger that he leave the place until
the regular dinner hour
owens got up scowling and reelcd
out, curslng the restaurant and its pro-
prletor His youthful admirers, who
'ie.d pSSu C1uSlSISu aC tnG restaurant
window during his brief visit there,
gathered about him and sought to tease
him into another game.
This time Owens would have nothing
to do with them. He shook them off
angrily when they snatched at mis- arm
and staggered up the street muttering
profanities
Marcus Collander, of 251 West Forty
fourth Street, and Alexander Bernham,
of 81 West 121st Street, negro en-
ployees of the Stanwood apartments,
321 West Fifty-hfth Street, were
standing in the doorway of the house
gossiplng and waiting for their relief,
which was about due.
Attacks Two Negroes
They saw Owens, attended by the
throng of children, and made some re-
marks about him in a tone too low for
the patrolman to catch. Nevertheless
ne saw the glances they directed to-
ward him and the smiles which accom-
panied their words and his smoldering
fury ct the rebuff he had encountered
IN the. restaurant suddenly blazed up.
He charged the two young negroes
Collander evaded him and ran back

GENOA, Aug. 6.--The famous San
Giorgo Palace, the symbol of Genoa's
ancient glory and the meeting place
Of the Genoa Conference, was occupied
BY Fascist after short but bloody
fgat last night in which five were
killed.
While the police and troops were
engaged in maintaining order in va
rious troublesome quarters of the city
column of Fascist surrounded the
falece ard forced an entrance through
the front door. A few policemen were
stationed outside. Shots met the Fas-
cisti from the inside, but, once inside,
the Fascist barricaded the doors and
windows. Troops were rushed to the
spot and aided by armored cars opened
fire on the palace.
Seamen and dockworkcrs, occupying
ing the neighboring houses, Joined with
the troops in the attack on the Fascist.
Il was with the greatest difficulty that
peiice and troops succeeded in gaining
tae square before the palace. They
we're unable, however, to force an en-
traree and tonight the Fascist still
aold the building. :rhe casualties
were i've dead and many wounded.
Quarter Now Under Siege
The quarter where the palace is 10
Gated is now practically in a state of
siege, There is fighting in the streets
approaching it. The Importance of
the occupation of the palace is desig-
mated by the fact that it is the head
quarters for regulating the work of
the port. This function the Fascist
now claim to control and have issued a
PROCLAMATION to that effect. In it thew
say they will not tolerate that the
work Of the port should be intrusted
to a Socialist union. The prociama-
ton has also called for a complete
liberty Of work to unionists and non
union worker alike.

PAONESSA MAY BE CANDIDATE FOR
 NOANLNA 7ION FOR LIEUT. GOVERNOR
Boom Launched in Mayors Interest Is Progressing Unhampered by Local Executive, He Admits.

In Hartford, Waterbury and else where, a boom for Mayor Angelo M Paonessa for lieutenant governor on the democrat ticket has been started, and although he admitted having had knowledge of the movement for the past few weeks, the mayor asserted this afternoon that he had not made up his mind whether or not to be a candidate.
 Knowledge of the move was brought to the mayors attention several weeks ago in Hartford. Today he was given clipping frem a Waterbury newspaper in which the Paonessa boom was discussed at length and the probability of his nomination and election forecaFted as very bright.
 Is Npn Connnittal
 The mayors only statement was to the effect that no positive announce ment could be made at this time since elections are several months away. He would not deny his ambition to pre- side over the state senate, neither would he announce himself a candi- date for the office.
 Chairman David L. Dunn of the democrat town committee heard of the possibility of Paonessa's candida cy only today. He declined to make comment other than to the effect that his committee would exert every ef- fort to elect Paonessa should he be the successful candidate for the nom- ination. He refused to say whether or not he would be pleased to see the mayor a candidate.
 A. Gorbach of the democratic state central committee was surprised when advised of the Paonessa boom. In re- ply to questions, he said Paonessa S entry into state politics, if it becomes a fact, would unquestionably affect Joseph M. Halloran's chances for se- curing the nomination for congress- man from the first district.

 He added that statements of the grand masters of Masonry who are quoted as having attacked the Ku Klux klan are predicated on the false statements that the klan Is a lawless institution and the claim that the Ku Klux klan or it's agencies have been attempting or claiming that the ku klux Klan was in some way affiliated with the Masonic fraternity which Is utterly untrue.'
