 Judge Relieves Officers
 David also denied the speeding charge and, when Judge Saxe ad- vised him to be frank with the court and tell the truth as to his speed, he said he did not believe it was more than 30 miles an hour. Supernum- erary Officer r, A. Peterson testi- fled that he was at the corner of North street and Hartford avenue when the two motorcycles turned into the avenue and continued along at & rapid rate of speed. Judge SaXe told the young men they must be careful about driving on city streets, and he reminded them that there is always the danger that children will run into the roadway. not to mention the probability of traffic suddenly appearing from side streets. As to their speed last night, he told them frankly he did not be- lieve they were going less than 43 miles an hour and it was such driv- ing that caused accidents.
 Joseph Malchiode, 34, of First avenue. West Haven, failed to ap- pear in court to answer the charge of driving without certificate of registration, and his arrest was or dered. He was notified last night to be in court, by Supernumerary Off, Cer F. A. Peterson.

 let rife value at $5. Toczko told the court a story of allowing Jimmy"
 to sleep in the attic of his home be- cause he had been put out of his own home, and then the mysterious "Jim- my" sold him the rife for S2. Press ed for further details as to the
 identity of "Jimmy," Toczko could say nothing except that he had told him he lived on Vance street. Tocz- ko did not know where Vance street
 was located. he said. and. as to the
 ownership of the rife. he did not
 exactly know" it was stolen at the
 time he bought it.
 Judge Saxe did not believe Tocz-
 kos tale and he found him guilty as charged, imposing a fine Of $10 and costs, execution of the penalty
 suspended, with probation. He ad- vised the young man to make an eff
 fort to obtain employment and keep out of trouble with the Jaw. to
 which Toczko replied that he had
 canvassed the local factories and | had asked Probation Officer E. C. | Connolly to help find him work.

 Toczko and companion were ar rested for disCharging the rife with out a permit Sunday afternoon, and each was fined $7 and costs in po- lice court yesterday. Shortly after noon. Motorcycle Officer David Doty received a complaint from the own- CT of the rife that it had been stolen the previous week, and Toczko was arrested on suspicion. He would not admit the theft either privately or in police court, and questions by Prosecuting Attorney Woods and Judge Sake could not shake him. His only answer to the identification made by the boys, however, was that they could not be positive because they had not seen his face.
 Detective Sergeant Ellinger and Officer Doty testified 10 their part in the investigation. the former say ing Toczko told him he did not know the boy from whom he bought the rife.

Japanese Cautions
 On Arms Question

Tokyo, Oct. 8 (P-High Japanese naval officials looked with surprise today at suggestions emanating from Washington that the prospective 1930 arms conference consider the abolition of capital ships. With cus- tomary caution they asserted they were unable to discuss the suggcs- tions until they were proposed pub licly, but it was understood that in their informal discussions almost unanimous opposition had been re- vealed.
 Some officers also looked with disfavor upon a five year extension of the capital ships building holiday. which they regarded as an opening wedge for abolition of the ships This attitude was confined largely to the naval men themselves, civilian officials showing a readiness to cx- plore possibilities of the suggestion.

TOMORROW i'm THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS
Christ and the
Sabbath
BY THE REV. EDW ARD TABER

David had eaten the sacred
bread when he was hungry on
the Sabbath. The priests per-
formed their tasks on the Sab
bath day.
Here, as always, the Saviour
demonstrated His emancipation
from q too literal religious code.
The Sabbath, He taught, was
made for man, not man for the
Sabbath.
/ The early Christian church
changed the observance Of the
Sabbath to Sunday, the first
day OF the week, or the Lords
Day. This custom arose from
the fact of the occurrence Of the
resurrection on the first day Of
the week.
OF vital importance to Chris
tianity is the fact of the resur-
reetion. very early, in the
morning, the first day Of the
week, came Mary Magdalene,
and Mary the mother Of James,
and Salome, to the tomb Of the
Christ"
Instead Of carrying out their
mission Of amounting the body
with spices, they met the eyoung
man, sitting on the right side
of the tomb, clothed in . long
white garment" To the aston
ished women. he said, Eye seek
Jesus of Nazareth. He is risen.
He is not here"
Soon after the early church
was established, the custom of
observing the first day Of the
week was intrenched. Since
then the great majority of de-
nominations have observed it.
It is obvious that if one day
were not made a day of specific
religious observance, the custom
Of group worship would disap-
pear. Man is q creature Of
habit in all things, sacred and
profane. Few today would advo-
cate a rigid observance of Sun
day, in the manner of the PhaF-
isee. But sane observance of
the holy day is as essential as
ever.
