POLICEMEN SEE BETTER
FUTURE BRICKLAYING

NEW YORK, April 1.-The lure
Of high wages, with bonuses and
short hours, for bricklayers, truck
drivers and other similar occupa-
tons, proved too much for four
patrolmen Of the Nassau county
police force. They resigned after
complaining to Sheriff Kelsey that
they had to work too hard and
too long and that their pay of
$4,000 year was far belowNthe best
bricklaying standard.
Lester Pearsall, one Of the patrol
men, is going to remain in the
business of trying to keep the
peace, and will return to his old
job on the village police force Of
Lynbrook, which is not as exacting
as being a county policeman.

Tells Of Paris Expedition.
Concerning Dumini's expedition to
Paris, Rossi declares that Gen. de
Bono delivered to him and others
false passports and that Aldo Finzi,
former deputy minister of the In
terror by order of Mussolini, gave, in

According to the reports Dumini

which 1 communicated to the pre-

Bono, the work of revenge and in

Mussolini sometimes praised the re-
ports and other times remained skep-
tical concerning their contents. Du-
mini returned from Paris wounded;
the premier, meeting him, congratu-
lated him affectionately. The secre-
tarait of the Fascist abroad had
special cigarette holder with an in
scription of appreciation presented TO
Dumini."
After an opposition speech deliv-

to Rossi, the memorandum adds, that
'Fascismo could not tolerate such an
insulting attitude and that Misuri
must be punished Immediately and
inexorably."

Later, at their usual morning con-

that Mfsuri intended to deliver an
other "ferocious speech" The pre-
mier shouted: But this time that
brute must be really killed" To this
de Bono replied smiling: Look here,
if we kill him, let us kill him before
he delivers his second speech, SO as
