.AUSTR|ANS PLEASE
 WITH CHEAP CIGAR
Find What German Tourists
 Want to Smoke

Vienna, Oct. ? LP-Tom Marshalrs historic counsel, what this country needs is a good five-cent cigar" has struck responsive chord among monopoly. They have discovered that what was needed for the popu- larization of the "Anschluss" (con- solidation of Austria and Germany with the average German visitor is a good cheap cigar.
 Austrian cigarettes have always found favor with Germans but the cigar simply did not satisfy weed addicts from the Eaterland. When ever one of them lighted an Aus trian cigar of the five or ten-cent variety, happy thought of 'An- schluss' gave way to unsavory epi- thets about Austria in general.
 To this distressing situation the officials of the tobacco monopoly were determined to make an end. So the "Anschluss cigar" has been announced. It is described as "an aromatic. well shaped cigar with stub tip
 Stub tip being "Stumpfschluss" in German, Austrians express the hope that "Anschluss" will come from "Stumpfschluss."

 m0rS-ACtiOn Possible Monday

While city officials today were be- lieved to be awaiting a gathering Of public works commissioners Monday night before discussing the rumored retirement of Street Superintendent Eugene Faselle, he frankly admitted having heard the report but insisted he has received no official notice of such a plan.
 Caselle said today friends have informed him of a move on foot to oust him. His injury, suffered near ly two weeks ago while supervising the Washington street repair job, has caused him to be out of com munication with city hall affairs, and he was unable to gather inform alton as to the why's and wherefores of the reports, he explained.
 Mayor Paonessa and Chairman George R. Dobson of the board of public works have declined to dis cuss the accuracy of the reports that Faselle' is slated to go, but both have been careful to avoid any statement that might be taken as a denial.

Students of the New Britain senior high school were warned this morn ing that the library was to be used for the reference work required by studies and not for the spending of spare time, as some students have been in the habit of using it for in the past.

State Examination Sought by
 Men Developing Local Field

Work on the airport being con. structed on the Swanson tract. near Osgood avenue, has progressed to a point where approval by the state authorities on aviation is to be sought and an effort is now being made to have an inspection Satur- day for this purpose.

BOSTON WILL GET
 LEGION CONVENTION
Los Angeles WithdraWS as Hub
 Shows Edge

Louisville. Oct. 2 tP-Boston won the 1880 convention of the American Legion, here today. The ballotins which was expected to be long drawn affair, was cut short by the Los Angeles representation, the only other contenders for the honor, with drawing when all indications pointed 10 selection of the New England city. The Californians moved that the se- lection of Boston be made unani- nous and their motion was carried.
 Miami Plea Ignored
 Just prior to the balloting Miami Fla, presented an invitation for the 1880 convention but it was tabled on recommendation of Herman Kidler Montana, chairman of the committee on the next convention. He rec commended that only Boston and Los Angeles be considered
 Recommendation that the Ameri- can Legion come to a definite de- cision on the moot question of a separate government department of aeronautics before laying the mat ter before the various under secre- taries in charge of aviation in the presidents cabinet, was made In a report on the Legions special aero nautic committee made public at the business session of the Conven- ton today
 The committee, headed by C. E. Mccullough, general traffic manager of the Pennsylvania railroad as chairman, and having Col. A. J. Dougherty, |, S. A., as its secretary, stated it's belief that there is a very serious need of developing aviation' but announced that two schools of thought had developed in the committee.
 One view is that aeronautics so far as national defense is concerned should be independent of the pres cnt army and navy. It favors single department of national de- fense with a cabinet officer at it's head, with sub secretaries for land, water and air forces, together with a fourth sub secretary heading bureau for procurement of men and materials
 The other viewpoints, developed in the individual conferences be- tween committeeman was that separate department of aeronautics should be created with a cabinet officer at it's head, and this depart ment would take charge of the air forces now under the army, navy and department of commrece and would develop defense and conner cial aviation.
 The committee report stated that while it was instructed by the 1928 convention to confer with the proper congressional and other committees relative to aeronautics, it had de- veloped that there were no congress sional or other legislative commit and that lacking funds for the pur- pose the committee members had been forced to determine the stand of it's members by correspondence It asked that it's report be filed and 1t be discharged.
 This report was one of many made public today for action during the convention which got down to seri- ous business again after having de- voted Tuesday to the joyousness of its big parade. Several resolutions recommended memorials to war vet erans and one asked that the Legion work out an enlarged program for the education of war orphans.
