FAIRFIELD BEACH INN
 DESTROYED BY FLAMES
Loss Is S25,0O0-Entire Shore Resort Is
 Threatened

Fairfield, Feb. R)-Fire early to- day destroyed the Fairfield Beach Inn, at Fairfield Beach and threat ened that summer resort. Fairfield firemen called for assistance from Bridgeport before the spread of the flames was checked.
 The fire started from an unknown cause in the bath houses in the rear of the Inn. When firemen arrived the flames were roaring through the entire building.
 Assistant Chief George r. Beard slee of Bridgeport hurried to the scene with bumper and crew and the two departments devoted their attention to saving surrounding property. So successful were they that the home Of Harry J. Carr, only three feet away from the Inn, was saved, although 1t was badly scorched.
 John H. Rhodes and an unidenti- fled guest were alone in the Inn when the fire started. They escaped unharmeu. The place Is owned by Rhodes wife, Mrs. Florence Rhodes, who was visiting in New York.
 The loss is estimated at $25,000, and is only partly covered by insur- ance.

NEW TAX RESOLUTION
One Drafted by Green Would Au- thorizc Work on Proposed Rcluc- tion During Summer Recess.

Washington, Feb. z LP-Chair- man Green of the house ways and means committee has drafted d reso- lution which would give the commit tee authority to begin writing of a new tax reduction bill during the coming summer recess of congress.
 The resolution was discussed at an executive committee meeting to- day, but action was deferred. More democrats than republicans were present at the meeting.
 The resolution would ask that members of the committee reelected to the next congress be given the right to sit as a commission during the recess. This procedure was fol- lowed two years ago, when the pres ent revenue law was written.
 As the present house has no au- thority to create a committee of the next house, the senate, which is continuing body. would have to ap- prove the resolution.
 Representative Garner of Texas. the ranking democratic member, said the minority would support the proposal.

Clarion, Pa, Feb. Pl-Two ban dits, who robbed the Clarion county National Bank of Knox, 10 miles from here, of ss,000, were captured a short time later by state police, who had received a tip" of the holdup plan.
 The bandits were brought to the Clarion county jail and will be re- moved to state police barracks at Butler, Pa. later.
 The robbers and another man, sup posed to have been a confederate, the street from the bank until Ray Wyle, a clerk. opened for business. As soon as the doors were thrown open, the bandits walked up the street to the home of George Berlin, the cashier. They covered him with pistols and marched him to the bank.
 In the meantime. the state police telephoned E. J. Miller, assistant cashier. to go to the bank and tell to meet their demands. He did so. and the bandits were handed $S,000. They then ordered the two bank em- ployes to accompany them to Der lin's home. where they intended to tie them up. En route, the state po- lice surprised the party, arrested the robbers and recovered the money.
 It is said that the state police learned of the holdup from the New castle police, where. it is believed, the robbers matched their scheme.

FEDERAL GRAND JURY

May Find Indictments Against Conn. Men in
 Rum Ring Probe

Hartford, Feb. z LP The fed cral grand jury which was called in to investigate the ramifications of the rum running in New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts will be in session tomorrow at Hartford, when it is expected it's work will be terminated. The district court, with Judge Thomas on the bench. will be in session here at the same time, so that if any indictments are returned by the grand jury it is expected bench warrants will immediately be issued.
 There has been much specula- ton as to the probable results of the grand jury investigation. There have been all sorts of reports of ''men higher up' and Connecticut being concerned in the probe made and names of various individuals have been freely mentioned as pos abilities for indictments. The naming of these men has been the purcst speculation. thus far, how eyer. as nothing of an official nature has been loosed to intimate in just what quarters federal wrath may be directed
 Should indictments be returned to court and bench warrants issued the individuals accused will not be presented at this term of court, but rather at the next term, which will ba of Now Haven on the fourth Tuesday of this month.

FORD TAX CASE SHOWS
 SIGNS OF SPEEDING UP
Some Interesting Testimony, Prob ably Tomorrow, Now
 Is Expected.

Washington, Feb. I tFp - A hint of important impending develop ments was given today as former minority stockholders in tha Fora Motor company neared the, conclu- sion of their presentation of evi- dence in the s3o.o00,000 tax recov- cry proceeding brought against them by the treasury.
 Todays session before the board of tax appeals was given over to statistical testimony by expert witt nesses, but 1t was indicated that the case would take 8 livelier turn with the testimony, perhaps tomor- row, of David H. Blair. former commissioner of internal revenue. and his chief deputy, c. R. Nash.
 These two witnesses have been subpoenaed upon petition by coun- sel for the protesting taxpayers. who said their testimony was re- quired to amplify the circumstances which prompted the government to reopen the case in 1925, shortly before the statute of limitations expired, and to levy an additional impost. It is not improbable that examination of the former govern ment officials will have a political angle.

 Nowadays it's spats and trousers, with sharp creases down the pants legs.
 Chief Roy Osh Kosh has brought this word from the reservation at Menominee, Wis, to the first 1927 powwow of the grand council fire of American Indians
 The chief himself was natty In trousers that carried knife edge crease and with smart styled spats fitted snugly over slickly shined shoes.

 The change, the chief confesses, has lifted the burden from the shoulders of the squaw and placed it on the brave, but he is not sorry.

BOARD WILL CONSIDER
 DISMISSAL OF CURTIN
Electrical Inspectors Case Comes Up at Tonight's
 Meeting

A division of opinion exists among members of the building commits sion as to whether Cyril J. Cur tin should be retired as electrical inspector at tonights meeting. and the requested resignation tabled last week may not be finally acted upon this evening.
 Curtin was asked to have his res- ignation ready for the board meet ing of last Monday, as were also P. J. Tormay, plumbing inspector. Tormay resigned and retired from office today. Curtin's letter to the board differed somewhat from the usual note of resignation. Instead of resigning, the inspector wrote to the effect that he had received the request and was therefore offering his resignation. While the differ ence is purely technical, 1t places upon the commissioners the obliga- ton of retiring the inspector instead of merely accepting his resignation.
 The charge against Curtin Is that he has been absent from the office on many occasions and did not maintain the hours established by the board. The commission has re- ceiyed petition from a majority of the licensed electricians in the city asking that Curtin be kept on the job and attesting to his ability. Chairman A. P. Leavitt, from whom the request for Curtin's resignation was received declared at last weeks meeting: MT. Curtin is an effi- cient inspector and a fine man for the job.'
