Window Washer Wins
 Award for Broken Leg

Richard Fox of 176 West stree. this city, window washer who broke his leg some time ago while employed about his duties at the Fafnir Bearing Co. plant. has been awarded compensation of s13.75 a week for not more than 520 weeks as long as his total disability lasts, by Compensation Commissioner Leo J. Noonan.
 The Fafnir Bearing Co.,, under the general statutes. Is held to be the principal employer. Edward Me Grath of 232 Hartford avenus>who contracted to wash the windows at the plant and who furnished Fox for the work. is not subject to the pro- visions of the compensation act be- cause he employs less than five men. Hence the liability of the Fafnir concern.
 The local firm is insured by the American Mutual Liability Insurance Co. and is also liable for the proper medical, surgical and hospital bills incurred by the claimant.
 Fox. while washing windows at the Fafnir factory, attempted to raise a window which was stuck. It suddenly released and shot to the top of the frame with the result that Fox lost his balance and was forced to jump. landing on the ground and breaking his leg

T|LSON CONDEMNS
 FARM RELIEF BILL
Declares It Unconstitutional and
 Like SOVietiSm

Washington, Feb. 17 tPl-Legisla- ton such as proposed in the Me Nary -Haugen farm relief bill leads in the direction of Sovietism and en- actment of the measure would be a long stride toward that condition, Representative Tilson of Connecti- cut the republican leader, declared in the house today.
 'It means" he said, that a par ticular class of our people acting through representatives of their own choosing, are to be clothed with tremendous powers over the very means of life itself affecting vitally the lives and frotunes of the whole people.
 q cannot bring myself 10 believe that the courts will ever sustain such legislation"
 The house leader attacked princi- pally the sections of the bill provid- the president from a list of previ- ously nominated individuals.
 This, he contended. clearly re- stricted the executives constitutional right to select agents of the govern- ment without interference except with the advice and consent of the ;enate.
 The selection method. he declar ed, is utterly vicious if not reso- lutely unconstitutional and cited legal opinions and court decisions in m attempt to show that the consti- tuition never contemplated such q Aggression.
 Tilson charged that if farm relief legislation fails at this session. those who have so consistently in sisted upon one particular bill or nothing at all. will not be free from blame for the result"
 "I do not believe" he declared, 'the bill to be a solution of the farm relief problem at all I believe not only that it would not work well, but that the attempt to work it would make matters infinitely worse I believe that in the long run the one who would suffer most from such a law would be the farmer himself.
 "As I try to visualize what would probably happen in case it were at tempted to put such law into operation, I can see the delicate mechanism of trade and commerce thrown out of it's normal adjustment into helpless confusion. Instead of prices being regulated by the law of supply and demand they will be determined by the edict of the board"

WATERBURY MEN
 HELD FOR LOTTERY
Three Are Indicted-AIleSeS
 Prizes Not Paid

Waterbury, Feb. 1T R-Secret indictments against Frank A. Greg ory and Nathan N. Polancer of Wa terbury and Arthur Greenburg. also known as Arthur Greenberg, of Hartford, are the basis of an agree ment entered into between United States Attorney Frederick Tarr in Boston and former Assistant United States Attorney James A. Carroll in last nights developments in the 1n- quiry into the victory double action treasury balance lottery, with head quarters in Waterbury.
 "Lost' $3,O00
 Chief Deputy James A. Tighe of the department of justice In Boston last night admitted that the three men named are indicted for con- ducting lottery and will appear in Boston Friday to plead to the charges, under the terms of the agreement. The investigation is the result of an investigation started by karegan Dagavarian, a Charlestown, Mass, man who was defrauded of Ss.ooo in the lottery, he alleges.
 Federal investigators connected with the bureau of investigation of the department of justice in Boston are in Waterbury checking up fur ther details of the activities of the lottery here, according to John Dowd. agent in charge of the bu- reau. It is expected more arrests in the case will be worked up by the Investigators. Department of justice officials agree that the two Waterbury men held are probably only the operating agents of the real owners of the lottery in Water bury. Hints that the investigation may strike several prominent men in this city are well founded. the investigators indicate.
 Another Winner Loses.
 Joseph A. Bergin, counsel for Will liam Cerino. proprietor of a physical culture gymnasium here, who says that he won s3,000 in the pool and was never paid, has turned over his facts to the federal authorities, he stated today, and will prosecute the heads of the lottery if they can be found. Polancer and man from Hartford, according to the attorney, refused to settle the claim of the physical instructor and claimed that the ticket he held was a counterfeit.
 Efforts to locate Polancer here today failed. He disappeared from lis home on Willow street several days ago and neighbors are unable to give any information about his whereabouts.
 Complete Exposure.
 Complete exposure of the gigan- tic lottery selling ring. believed to have its headquarter in Waterbury, is thought imminent today, as a re- suit of secret investigation carried on during the past few weeks by federal officials.
 Meanwhile operators of at least six other lotteries in Waterbury conducted sales guardedly today and refused tickets to unrecognizcd applicants. Tickets to the "old re- liable treasury balance the ''poli- cy" and the Square deal" lotteries. along with others known only by word of mouth. were obtainable here in a few stores making a spe cialty of gambling tickets.

The soup house opened Monday morning and was largely patronized. about seventy quarts being sold, varying in price paid from five cents to S5.O0 per quart. The soup was pronounced good by all, and thus far the managers have had their capacity tested to the utmost to SUD- ply even two-thirds of the demand. A number of worthy families have been assisted but large propor- ton of the worthy have not thus far been reached and never will be until the residents of every street seek out for themselves these really worthy families and see to it that they are assisted. Many there are who will die before they will let their wants be known. such must be called upon and furnished with their necessary wants.

Petrol Tin in Stone
Recalls Braue Deed

There is only one statue in the
world in which a tin Of petrol figures.
This is in Madrid, and commemo-
rates an incident in the Spanish war
in Cuba. A certain house was known
to shelter number Of insurgents, and
a Spanish soldier conceived the idea
of creeping up to it at night armed
with tin Of petrol and a box Of
matches. He was to set fire to the
petrol and throw the tin into the
house.
The chances that he himself would
not be burned to death were small,
but to take advantage of every loop
hole for escape it was arranged that
he should make his attempt with a
long rope tied round him, the other
end being held by his comrades, so
that If the rope was not burned
through, he might, dead or alive, be
dragged back.
The attempt was successful, and in
due course statue was erected In
Madrid, showing, in addition to the
man, his rope and tin Of petrol.

and told by the Florida Judge that

law"
Passenger in Interstate Commerce.
I'VE will charge that, since Mrs.
Brookins was a passenger in inter-
state commerce and therefore not
subject to the provisions of the Flori-
da Jim Grow law" Attorney Hays
stated, "the defendants violated their
contracts as common carriers, with
Mrs. Brookins, subjecting her to in
suit, modification and injury to her
nervous system and general health;
that their agents acted carelessly,
negligently, forcibly and unlawfully,
and that they caused her to be un-
lawfully imprisoned, with great ex-
pense and personal injury. This is
a case of inhuman treatment" Mr..
Hays declared.
Attracting Wide Spread Interest.
This case is designed to attract
wide spread interest because of the
many new angles and phases in
volved. The fact that such able coun-
sci as Hays and barrow will handle
it presages a new era in legal and
judicial contentious and interpreta-
lions of the laws governing interstate
travel, and the intent and meaning
of passenger accommodations. Men,
bers of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People
indicate that this will be a supreme
effort to thrash out this much moot
ed question. Every effort will be
made to prosecute this case to the
limit.
