\ year or more ago a family nam- cd Romani lived i,l New Britain and occupied large portion of the limelight reflected by police activi- ties. The parents of several chil- dren, husband and wife were under surveillance for alleged mismanage- ment of the household. and Mrs. Ro- mani attracted considerable atten- ton by throwing herself on the rail- road tracks near Elm street and otherwise threatening to end her troubles and her life at the same time.
 Several months ago the family moved to Hartford and few times after that they were heard from through the police. Last night about G:10 o'clock Officer William F. Sul- livan was called into the New Brit ain Bird and Feed Co.,, at 172 Arch street and received q complaint that Mrs. Romani was causing a disturb ance because a certain parrot which she had ordered had been sold to another customer. That was the first inkling the police had that she was in New Britain, and on invcsti- gating further they learned that she still lived in Hartford but had come to this city last week and made $2 deposit on a certain red parrot.

Anti Prohibition Group Attacks
 Move to Make Purchaser Criminal

Washington, Oct. s (Pt-The move to make liquor purchasers liable to prosecution as prohibition violators, was described today by the Associ- ton Against the Prohibition Amend ment as one which would 'nullify" the eighteenth amendment.
 That view was set forth in state mcnt by Henry H. Curran, president .of the association. commenting on the bill introduced by Senator Shep- pard, democrat, Texas. to declare buyers equally guilty with manufac- turers or sellers of liquor.
 Should be in Amendment
 "The place to put prohibition of purchase is in the eighteenth amend- ment, after which it will be time enough to talk about putting it into the Volstead act" Curran asserted.
 "Confiress left it out of the 18th

amendment deliberately. Congress cannot put it into the Volstead act now without nullifying the amend ment on which the Volstead act is based.'
 Sheppard said the proposal con- tained in his bill was left out of the amendment, which he sponsored in the senate, because of the belief eX- isting then that the latter could not be passed if it contained such a clause.
 The recent Philadelphia court de- cision holding that a liquor buyer could not be punished, together with continued advance of prohibition sentiment and achievement" he thought, had now made introduction of his bill advisable. Enactment will

Premier and Chief Exc cutive Seeking Mutual Ground to Promote Peace Reaction of People More Import ant Than Parleys.
Ishbel and Father End Visit at White House Leave Thursday for Canada-Luncheon This Noon HonOrs Noted Guest at Capital.

Washington, Oct. P'-President Hoover said today the conversations with Prime Minister Ramsay Mac Donald were being carried on in an atmosphere of absolute frankness, and that neither of us has anything in reserve
 The chief executive said since there were no controversies between the United States and Great Britain to be settled at this time it was possible to carry on the talks with q prospective of the future in a broad sense.
 To promote Good Feeling
 The two, he added, were search ing for those things that would promote a good feeling between the American and British peoples.
 AIr. Hoover asserted that more important than the conversations themselves was the reaction of the American people and the great fricndliness they had shown to the prime minister and through him to the British people.
 This evidence, the president said, also was more important than any conclusion that he and Mr. Mac Donald might reach.
 Text of Statement
 The presidents statement said:
 "There is nothing that l can re- port at the present moment on the conversations with the prime minis ter. These conversations are con- tinung in the most friendly of at mosphcrcs. We fortunately have no controversies between our countries to be settled. We are therefore, able to discuss our mutual problems in the long distance view and solely in the broad aspect of human vel fare in the largest scene.
 Moreover. we are able to carry our conversations without circumlo- Cution and in absolute frankness with recognition of the point of view of both sides. Neither &of us has anything to reserve. We have to search only for those things that will promote the increase of good will and moral solidarity between the two countries. The prime minister possesses a wealth of Scotch humor which lubriCatos any discussion.
 Attitude Of Public
 More important than all is the great evidence shown by the press and the American people of genuine friendliness to the prime minister Of Great Britain and to his people. The demonstration that is in pro- gress is in itself of more importance than any incidental conclusions that he and I might come to on matters concerning our two nations"

OFFENSES CAUSE REJECTION PodIaSek'S Plea for Citizenship
 Papers Denied by Court MAN AND WIFE APPROVED
Lyons Street Couple Succeed on First Try-Several Applicants AL lowed to Change Namcs-Judge Traccslli Makes Address.

lnrce NlOldtlONS Ot the llquOr laws were the basis for the only rejection of citizenship papers in the first of four sessions of naturalization court this morning. On recommendation of United States Naturalization Con- missioner Luther W. ThroCkmorton Judge Stanley J. Traceski, who pre- sided, dismissed the application of John Podlasck.
 Referring to the incident in his talk, which followed an oath to the group of which Podlasek was a member, Judge TraCeski cited the case as an example of what law vio- lation would bring upon people. He urged law and order as the aim of the group.
 He spoke of the pleasure it was to welcome the new group of citizens who have completed the require ments for their papers and told them they should feel proud of their new honors. He said there were certain privileges which accompany the award of the citizenship papers but the government of this country demanded certain responsibilities in return.
 Judge Traceski asked the group to familiarize themselves with the gov ernment and to be loyal to it. How ever, it was Judge Traceski's opinion that the people did not have to give up their language, customs and tra- ditions. Study of American history was urged by the judge, who in formed his hearers that it was an interesting experience.
 With few exceptions the newl = made citizens have as many rights as those who were born in this country, Judge Traceski said. He urged the group to become voters and register with either of the par ties and, if the opportunity S af- forded them, to seek office.
 Man and Wife Pass
 One of the unusual sidelights o. tOday's hearing was the success which wife and husband had in passing tests for citizenship papers on their first attempt. Per Einar Sanden and Ebba Lilly Sandcn of G3 Lyons street came to this coun- try from Sweden six years ago, at tended the evening school classes at ;he Central Junior High school and were graduated last spring.
 There were some whose cases were continued for further study Every one of 10 of German extrac- tion appeared and each was grant ed the papers. T"is was also true of the two Russian candidates. Che of these, Pauline Clara Lookliss, had her name changed to Shea, as ;he had married since her application was first made.
 Many Poles Accepted
 The list of successful applications who are of Polish extraction are as follows: Joseph Matyszcyk, Harry Lash, Maria Szumska, Stanislaw Olszcwy, Stanley Just, Katarzyna Bogucka, Emily Mary StoIba, Berka Bcrkowitz, Andrjej Stefen Gladczuk, Joseph Humaj, Jozef Sobolewski John Lukowski, Michal Piasecki Leon Sarnowski, Wincenty Toczko Apolinary FaszkoWicz, and Antoni RZewnicki
 Those of Italian extraction arc Gene Ornati, Santina Gozzo, An tonic Fin, Nello QuercioH, Carmclo Greco, Nincenzo Vessella, Michael Lorenzo and Gino Bonati
