OFFICERS START
 PROBE OF WORST
 DISASTER OF WAR
(Continued from Page One)
 Rudder BuckIed.

The buckIing of the rudder crippled the steering apparatus and started the Roma on its plunge toward the ground. The downward progress of the airship was checked by shutting off the engines, but the pilots were poWer1ess to right the craft and 1t plunged to the ground, crashing through a line of high tension electric wires and landing upon a pile of steel rails and wheels.
 The survivors rnphatical1y denied statements of civilians who saw the accident from the ground that fire broke out on the Roma before she struck the ground. The army officers who escaped also said they believed the fire and explosions which followed the crash were caused by the heat of the airship'S engines, rather than by contact with the wires.
 Became Hot Furnace.
 Striking these the big dirigibIe cap- sized, it's great 40 foot hydrogen bag smothering the passenger and engine com parGn entS as 1t crashed to earth, to become immediately a E$8iRg fur mace of blazing hydrogen gas in which all who had not jumped to earth met a terrible death. All of the eleven survivors escaped by Jumping as the ship struck only one of the victims meeting death in this way.

First Selectman Frederick Burr has sent a letter to Health Officer Poole stating that the town could not accept the ambulance donated by the Home Guard. He states the town would be liable for accidents in which the ambulance might be involved. Burr says he could not accept the ambulance until the question is acted upon at the March town meeting. Dr. Poole said that he took from Burr's letter that the town did not want to have any thing at all to do with the ambulance. Dr. Poole has already had the ambulance insured with money secured by subscription. Light and telephone poles are be- ing moved in front of the new theatre in the center to make way for the new cut in the street.
