LABOR DAY DEATHS
 SURPRISINGLY FEW
Heavy Auto Traffic Moves With
 Minimum Of Accidents
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press,
 Contrary to the expectations of the motor vehicle department Labor Day and it's preceding Sunday passed with q minimum of automo- bile and other accidents. So far only four have been reported killed the same number put in serious con- dltlon and about a score slightly hurt To the four dead might be added two others believed to have perished in q fire at Suffield. The known dead are Mrs. Mira K. Bishop, G9, who was killed by a train near her home at North Ha- ven; Louis Starr, 32, of Stonington, who suffered fractured skull and died when tire of his auto blew out, throwing him at New London; Walter Harkins, 26, who suffered d broken neck when making a shallow dive at Ocean Beach; and Fred Y. 1ochum, 3S, of Wheeling, w. Va, who was killed when thrown from his motorcycle.
 Neighbors heard screams from the 'uILt'ii bdlH OL MfS. AIlnd Bell or Hartford when it burst into flames, but tiremen searching the ruins failed to find any bodies. The theory Is that if any persons died in the fire, and two are believed to have done so, they were picnkers.
 On the serious list are Leon Jack son of Boston, who was injured when his car struck pole at Bridgeport; i; nine year old Silas Gerber of Dor chester, Mass, injured at Greenwich when struck by an auto; Jennie Destilio. nine, of Bridgeport, injured when knocked down by an auto; and Rosario Jennccaro, 62, of Bridge port, injured when an Automobile overturned.

Berkeley, Calif.-A new X-ray
laboratory for use in plant breed

when this committee has given it's
approval the pollen or other plant
material to be X-rayed will be sent

otherwise might never have come
into existence. At the same time re-
suits of value from the purely scien-
tific viewpoint are expected.
