STATE SUFFERS
 THROUGH DEATHS
Three Political Figures of Con necticut Have Recently
 Died
Loss Causes Gloom in National
 Capital

Gloom to no small degree has found it's way into the offices and homes Of Connecticut congressman through the inroads death and illness have made into the ranks of political figures of the state recently.
 Three times in the past few days representatives of Connecticut in con gress have been called upon to pay tribute to comrades called by death. First it was the death of Colonel Isaac Ulman, long time republican leader of New Haven. then the passing of Representative James r. Glynn fol- lowed closely by the death of ex- President William Taft. Not to be forgotten also was the death of Arthur T. Hadley, president of Yale.
 News of these deaths found the surviving members of the Connecticut delegation not in the best of health. Representative F.. Hart Fenn of Wethersfield had been i'll for several weeks and had just returned convales- cent to his office.
 Freeman III
 Representative Richard Freeman of New London was ill in his home when todd of Mir. Glynn's death, and Repre- sentative Schuyler Merritt of Stam- ford was so indisposed that he was unable to attend Mir. Glynn's funeral
 Senator Frederic C. Walcott, an intimate friend of Taft. Ulman and Glynn, planned to go to Winsted for the Glynn funeral but was prevented from doing so by his physicians or ders. The Senator was suddenly put in a sickbed by severe attack of the grippe.
 Expressions of sincere regret over the death of these four prominent Connecticut leaders Colonel Ulman, Representative Glynn, Arthur Had ley. and William Howard Taft-were voiced by the remaining members of Connecticut's leaders in Washington And 1t could not be but noticed that gloom underlay all of these tributes.
 Even blase Washington is taking notice of the toll that death and ill- ness has been claiming from Connoe- ticut within the immediate past.

the expected Autumn upturn in business
by taking a bull position in stocks
today, giving the new week in the mar

to the blue Monday of a week agos
Efforts to bid up prices were hampered
by profit taking by cautious traders who
bought around the bottom of the recent
decline, but selling was absorbed in good
style, and the list as whole made fair
progress. The business and trade re-
ports of the week end provided few if
any definite clues to the business trend,
but last weeks rally, resulting from a
patiently oversold position, apparently
provided adequate encouragement.
Look to Commodities.

statistical service advised customers
that while further drastic declines now
seem unlikely, the situation did not
justify reaching for stocks on advances.
Traders are still inclined to look for
guidance to the commodity markets,
and renewed bJlllishness seems to be
predicated ons the theory that COM

Wheat began the week firmly, which
was encouraging.
Business news was fairly satisfactory.

agreement has been brought about with the best possible feeling be- tween everybody. and with no req son for either of three powers to feel as if it had got the worst of the bargain.
 As visualized today the three power treaty which probably will be drawn up here will include the principles of battleship holiday, scrapping of five capital ships by Great Britain, three by the United States. and one by Japan; adopted of big cruiser ratio containing the Rapidan figures, and the Reed- Matsudaira compromise; an agree mcnt on light cruisers, destroyers and submarines, and a new defini- tion of aircraft carrier tonnage.
 There is possibility also of inclu- sion of such other points as hu- manization of submarines, and cer- tain technical work which has been done here, which France and Italy would be able to initiate without ac- cepting participation in the agree ment as a whole. The treaty was expected also to contain an "esca- lator" clause providing for lifting of the various national levels if building by France or Italy upsets the two-powcr standard in Europe.

Real Census EnumeratOr
 Meets Sour Reception

Chicago, April 5 lP-Announc- ing yourself as a 'census taber' at 5sS9 Sheridan road is much like shouting Wolf. Wolff ,.
 The reason, of course, is that it's been done before. Last week three men entered 5SS9 Sheridan road as census takers and walked out with about S50,00G worth of jewels belonging to Mrs. Lottie Brenner von Bue- low, who lives there.
 Yesterday another caller said he was the census taker. This time it really was the govern ment enumorator, but just as when the wolf in the fable really came, nobody believed it. The door was promptly slammed in his face and the burglar lock latched.
 The census takcr came back with the neishborhood police man. explanations were made all around and the blanks filled out. But 1t will be useless for anyone else to try to get in that way.

 Traffic golf. it was explained, is simple but exciting pastime for the motorist who drives to work each morning through rows of traffic lights. If a green light is passed without stopping. the driver is lone up" and if red light calls halt he is pcnalized one, just as in match golf play. The game resolves itself into sec ing how many green lights one can pass without stopping for the red signal.
 A "whiff." it developed, is counted when the. driver crosses on the yellow signal and things happen just like they did to MT. Herman.

THREE PILOTS ARE
 HELD FOR TORTURE
Victim Says Airmen Kidnapped
 Him Seeking Information

New York, April (F) - Police professed to be pretty much up in the air today over strange tale of Kidnapping and torture in which five of the six persons involved are avia- tors.
 James D. Quinn. a pilot, caused the arrest of three men whom he accused of Kidnapping and beating him at the instigation of J. Morgan Corbett, real estate operator and amateur aviator of Boston, in an ef- fort to force him to disclose the whereabouts of Mrs. Corbett.
 He said that on March 26 the men, under the guise of hiring him to repair an airplane lured him to camp in the Bronx where they bound him and beat him when he maintained he did not know where Mrs. Corbett was. In his affidavit he charges Corbett visited the camp and beat him several times with a milk bottle. He said he finally es- capped last Thursday and made his way to Bronx police station.
 Corbett, through his attorneys. has announced his willingness to the police to surrender for questioning whenever he is wanted. The police, however. said no charges would be made against him at present.
 Left Three Months Ago
 They learned that Mrs. Corbett had left her husband about three ago and that Corbett had filed suit for divorce last November naming Quinn as correspondent Quinn at one time worked for Cor bett, piloting prospects to view real estate developments.
 Mrs. Corbett, before her marriag! was Philomena Silva, of Province town, Mass, and was popular as q model for portrait painters whe made Provincetown their headquar. ters during the summer.
 She was a school teachers al Wakefield, Mass, when she first met Corbett in 1917 when he was a na. val aviator. They were married 1T 1923 making honeymoon trip b, airplane to Maine. Mrs. Corbett who now is 37 years old, was taught to pilot a plane by her husband They have two children.
