 The sole reason he made the con- fession, Madeiros said, was the sight of Sacco's wife and little children coming to see him in the Dedham jail. He maintained he never saw Sacco until both were thrown to- gether in the jail.
 William G. Thompson, counsel for Sacco and Vanzetti, played the con- fession as the trump card in hand that contained 62 affidavits in sup port of his motion.
 Others charged that U. S. depart ment of justice agents had worked to secure the conviction of his clients as the best way of disposing
 of them after failure to secure enough evidence to deport them as radicals. Attorney Thompson sight, ed the fact that the Boston bureau of the department refused to open it's records of the case to him as proof of hissassertions.
 The governmen filed a dozen affi- davits, most of which were designed to controvert defense statements, and one of which specifically denied that any attempt had been made to railroad" the convicted men or make them "open up" to stool pigeons" placed in the Dedham jail.

CLAIMS GUILT IN
 BRAINTREE CASE
Condemned Murderer Would
 AbSOlVe SaCCO and YanZetti

Dedham, Mass, Sept. Is P-A 24-year-old condemned murdered, now awaiting death in the electric chair, has come to the aid of Niccolo Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti in their last ditch fight to escape a sim liar penalty for the murder of a Braintree paymaster and his guard six years ago.
 Celestino Madeiros, convicted of the murder of an aged bank cashier in Wrentham, yesterday shouldered the blame for the crime of which Sacco and Vanzetti stand convicted in a confession covering 132-type- written pages. The confession was read before Judge Webster Thayer as an affidavit in support of a de- fense motion for a new trial.
 Madeiros declared that early in the spring of 1920 he drove with four other men from Providence, k. l., to a spot near the Rice and Hutchins factory in South Braintree. There he was left to guard the car. He heard shots and the men, carrying black bag, came running back, with the gleeful announcement that there would be S4,00O or s5,000 apiece for members of the gang, although they had had to shoot two men.
 They then drove back to Provi- dence, the confession concluded, but Madeiros refused to say if he shared In tho 1oot and a ahsolute1v 6acljDel to "squeal" on the. men implicated

LOVE UNASHAMED

can never remember that moth- CT took an attitude of shame or guilt in regard to the love I know existed between her and MT. Hall. She never made secret of her fondness for the church and l have heard her say dozens of times that she would never give 1t up until she died. Neither did she make a secret at home of her admiration and af- lection for MT. Hall.
 My fathers attitude, as far as I could judge, was curious one. His nature Is peculiar; I never under stood it very well; always wondered what was passing in his mind, and why he did certain things the way he did them. he might have seen it would lead to trouble.
 There were few actual quarrels between mother and father on the subject of the church or the pastor; the quarrels were usually about money or how we children were to be brought up. Mother insisted I should keep on at high school, and father didn't think it necessary. He had to go to work as a young boy. He didn't sec why we should do diff ferently. What was good enough for him was good enough for us.
 Mother used to be wild aoout that. She used to say I should keep on at high school till l graduated. and stay away from work that might bring in few poor dollars a week, even if she had to go out scrubbing or cooking in somebody's family to keep me there. And moth- CT won. Mother always won. She was positive in character and couldn't be walked over.
 For years my parents were out of sympathy and almost like strang- CTS. And yet that isn't quite true either, for mother was great stick Ter for our being respectful and obedient to father. She was fond Of him, l guess, in a way. Anyhow, she knew she owed him a certain kind of loyalty if nothing else, and although they got terribly on each l others nerves and went their sep arate ways as much as possible, there weren't any real battles be- tween them, as has been ridiculously said in some newspaper stories throwing plates and vases and hit ting each other.
 I confess I saw mothers side bet ter than fathers. Mother and I thought alike about practically everything. I don't believe father intended to be cruel, but he must have felt mothers indifference and disappointment in him, and her contempt for his lack of ambition and get-up-andget, and he liked to tease and annoy her sometimes. He has irritating ways of saying and doing things. If you ask him to stop. instead of seeing you aren't in any mood for stiffness, he goes right on till you're wild.
 If mother used to slap back" sometimes, who can blame her? I certainly never did. There are limits to everyone's patience and endur- ance. I hated to see her flare up,

VACCINATION LAW

Hartford, Sept. IS tP - Whether .children between the ages of seven and sixteen must be vaccinated be- fore they can attend school is ques- tion which will have an airing on the criminal as well as the civil side of the state courts, with the result that the whole vaccination question as it applies to school children will ultimately have an airing in the su- preme court of errors.
 This seemed assured today when States Attorney Hugh NJ. Alcorn said that he would try Everett Elm mons, of GAG New Britain avenue, and John A. Mallett, of 240 Broad street, at the criminal terms next week for failure to send their chil- dren to school as required by law. On the civil side, in an action seek ing an order to compel the super intendent of the board of health to issue a certificate to permit the children to go to school, the case is on appeal to the supreme court after Judge Malloy refused the or der.

 They would not have gone to- gether. But even If they had, they would not have been ashamed. Neither of them was ashamed of how they felt. They knew they couldn't help feeling so, and that even though they had to hurt peo- pie, their feeling was right.

Swimmers and Trainer Say Miss

One tug alone conveyed Miss Ederle,
while the other carried camera men
and reporters. Far from assisting
the American swimmer. as had been
intimated in criticisms of her swim,
the tug is reported TO have imreGed
her proSI ess several times.
F'orty-one witnesses follow ed Miss
Ederle's attempt and they have in
Dictated that the swim was carried OF I
in accordance with every precedent.
The Associated Press orreSpondent
who has been present at 70 channel
starts. can testify that Miss Ederie' s
swim was accom-, plished un'er ALSO

are SO silly that there is nothing To
reply to. Miss Ederle swan the Chan
