 As the debate went on Nr. Bell asked that the motion be decided by roll call vote. Mir. Alling objected. Only 37 voted for roll call which was not one fifth and so Mir. Bell lost out although the nays were not counted.
 Bell Again Loses.
 It was discovered that MT. Bells motion to divide the question had been lost and Mir. Alling renewed his motion to reject the bill. The debate went on.
 "Blindfolded," Says Peck
 Mir. Peck of Bristol said the house was "blindfolded and crippled" If it could act only on the original bill.
 Mir. Averll said the unfavorable report was on the substitute bill. Members Of the bar, he said, had expressed terrible fear that they could not express opposition 10 the bill because they had 10 practice be fore the highest courts. He did not believe the chief justice was of such calibre as 10 permit opinion to weigh against any lawyer who might op- pose the bill and yot be arguing be- fore tho highest court,

STOCK DIVIDENDS
 REPORTED COMING
Otherwise Uncle Sam May
 Assess Another Tax

Students of the stock market are blowing dollar signs instead of smoke ring from their favorite pipes as they sit under the plum trees waiting for the fruit to drop into their laps as the result of their an- ticipation that several large New Britain industries will declare stock dividends within the next few months.
 This is all the result of the enact ment last year by congress of a law which the federal government is au- thorized to levy tax of 50 per cent of net income when profits are al- lowed to accumulate beyond what the government decides to be a rea- sonable maximum. Two or three New Britain manufacturing con- cerns might be included in the cate gory of those coming under this heading, according to the talk along the Ticker and Tape Row, and 1t Is expected that these companies will disgorge to the stockholders rather than allow Uncle Sam to step in and take away the cream.
 Section APO of the Revenue Act of 1924 says, in effect, that if corporation is formed or availed of to present the imposition of a surtax on it's shareholders by per mitting it's profits to accumulate in- stead of being disturbed, a tax of 30 per cent of net income shall be collected and paid in addition to the regular income tax.
 The fact that any corporation is a mere holding of investment company or that the gains or profits are per mittCd to accumulate beyond the req sonable needs of the business is taken as evidence of purpose to escape surtaX.
 Tho commissioner Of internal revenue can require at any time a statement of these profits and names of shareholders who would be en- titled to them.

TELLS WHY MEN DO
 NOT to ID CHURCH
Preachers VOics" Criticized by
 Instructor in Speaking

Why many men do not 20 ia church, was explained to the mem bers of Kiwanis club at the Bur fitt hotel today at noon by Professor John w. Wetzel of tho Hartford theological seminary and Columbia university. He explained that 1t was because of an artificial and unnat- ural pitch in the voice. often used by speakers, which grows exceeding- ly tiresome to the listeners after a short time.
 The speaker gave a program of monologues, poetry and humorous stories. the reference to the evil which he feels drives men away from church, being incidental to the address.
 Professor Wetzels presence was a Tribute to- the Kiwanians who are members of his public speaking class at the Y. M. c. A. The Kiwan- is club has been called the back bone of the class. the professor hav- ing been one of the speakers to Ki- wanis during its early days. ..-
 The address consisted of witty stories, dialect recitals, and poems of James Whitcomb Riley. Robert Emerson Brooks and others.
 In the course of his talk Profes- sor Wetzel waxed serious a.few mo- ments to criticize the so-called ''preacher's voice." high pitched monotone affectation sometimes used by public speakers, "oftimes in the pulpit" which he characterized as "frills and Harvard accent"
 Its the devils own way of kill Ing off lot of good preachers. when this fool thing gets into their vocal lzation, and that's why lot of good men all over the country never go to church." he said.
 Following the address by Pro- lessor Wetzel, c. w. Parker, Will liam R. Tenn and Ernest R. De- chant were called upon by President Donald Gaffney to express the ap- preciution of the club.
 The attendance prize was won by Harry Vessels.

der had been covered by several others.
 A search of the house revealed that practically all of the contents of the desk, even to MT. Lanes pro- fessional accounts, had been over hauled. In the dining room a buffet drawer had been pulled open and some expensive silverware was dis turbed but nothing was taken. Some larger pieces of siverware in the china closet showed evidence of having been handled, but here again nothing was taken. A sum of money in a desk drawer was undisturbed.
 Police Investigating
 MT. Lano Sunday afternoon noti- fled the police department and De- tective Sergeants William r. McCue and George E. Elingcr are investi- gating.
 The case is baffling from num- Der of angles. The window through which entrance was made is directly in the glare of street light and is probably the most brilliantly illu- minated spot on the street.
 A careful examination for finger prints developed the fact that the intruders wore gloves. In handling the copy of the Skelly report great care was taken not to smudge the carbon. All the office files showed signs of having been examined but nothing was taken.
 MT. Lane was not called upon to identify the murder bullet at the Chapman hearing in superior court, and there is strong suspicion that the burglars were friends of Chap man, working for evidence in his defense and probably seeking fur ther information concerning the au- topsy and 8 description of the bullet.
