BYRD'S SHIP HAS
 TROUBLE IN GALE
Rides Out Storm After Two Days
 and Half Of Delay

Dunedin, N. Z, April P-A- though a south- -easterly gale, with a wind velocity of 70 miles an hour, had not abated, Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd's antarctic expcdi- tion ship, the City of New York, radioed today that she was riding out the storm in the Pacific ocean, midway between here and Papeete, Tahiti.
 The bark, with only top sail and try sail up, had been hove to tor nearly two and a half days.
 The steamer, Eleanor Boiling, Admiral Byrd's other expedition vessel, reported that she was mak- ing good time against the heavy seas.
 Both ships reported that those aboard were well. A stowaway was found on the Eleanor Boiling after the vessel left Dunedin and will be put ashore at Papeete, where the two ships are to join company for the trip to Panama.
 Admiral Byrd is to leave New Zealand for Wellington April 4 on board the steamer Rangitili. At Panama he will board the City of New York for the final stage of the homeward journey to New York city.

Hungry Newsboy, Working to Help Widowed Mother, Caught In Chase
 Alter Taking Grocer's Doughnuts
Pathetic Situation in McCintock Street Home Comes to Light When Lad Runs Into Policeman's Arms - Sympathetic Sergeant
 Frees Young Prisoner.

For some time Frank Skzynirz has been missing doughnuts from a basket left by baker every morning In front of his store at 59 North street. Crisp. brown doughnuts, hot cut of the oven, they were good enough for anyone's breakfast, and they cost money to buy, but Skzynirz was not realizing any profit on them because too many were being stolen.
 A 12 year old newsboy living at 2S McClintock street was hungry. His father was dead and his mother was in want, as were others in the family. He has been arising every morning long before sun-up and hurrying down town to cover a paper route and pick up few pennies for some of the necessities of life. The pubic welfare department of the city has been helping the family but the boy wanted to do something himself.
 He was passing Skzynirz's store about 5:30 o'clock this morning, while most boys of his age were soundly sleeping in warm beds, as sured of nice breakfast of cereal and hot biscuits coffee and cakes. He knew the doughnuts were in the basket. He had seen doughnuts there before and he appreciated that they were brown and crisp and tasty
 Nobody was about, he reasoned. It was dark and there were few po- llcemen in the ne.ghborhood at that particular time. He took the chance, which actually did not seem to be a chance at all. He stuffed his pockets,

COOKE DIVORCE CASE
 HAS LOCAL PARALLEL
Supreme Court Declares Reno, Nevada, Writ
 Invalid

The Connecticut supreme court of errors. in a decision handed down yesterday in the case of Alfred E. Cooke of Hartford, holds that Cookc's divorce, obtained in Reno, Nevada, is invalid in Connecticut, the case being parallel to that of Eugene r. Schcell Of 10 State street, Waterbury, a former resident of New Britain, who is awaiting trial in superior court on the charge o1 nonsupport.
 In the Cooke case, the opinion was written by Justice Frank D. Haines, and is to the effect that Cookes residence in Nevada for four months prior to the granting of the divorce, was merely colorable" and that he had no intention of residing there permanently. The divorce was granted in 1928 and later Cooke was arrested for support. Judge Isaac Wolfe, who heard the case in superior court, found that the de- fense of divorce set up by Cooke was not a good one and the action of the Nevada courts did not re-

New Britain Health Board Refuses to Pay Bill of S57l for Treat ment of Child in Neighboing City at Meeting Today.
Blame Bristol Authorities Because Patient Became III With Disease, Claim ing Sickness Developed Before He Was Brought Here in 1928.

Acting on advice of Corporation Counsel John H. Kirkham, the board of health today voted to re- fuse payment 10 the city of Bristol for treatment of smallpox patient and to include In its note of rejec- ton the charge that the disease was contracted at the Bristol General tons negligence.
 Hurt In I4'istol, Brought Here The patient was Walter Thomp- son, minor, whose family left this city and took up it's residence in | bristol, in 1928, He suffered injury in an automobile accident April 15 and was taken to the Bristol hospi tai where he remained until May g. ite was then removed to the New Britain General hospital, because he had not lived in Bristol long enough 10 have established legal residence there and the case was 8 public charge. Three days after he was admitted here, smallpox developed. Arrangements were made to have him treated at the Bristol isolation hospital to save the cost of opening the Rocky Hill avenue building and an agreement 10 pay $100 week for his care was made by former Superintendent Richard w. Pullen, according to the Bell City health authorities. This agreement is de- Med by Dr. Pullen. Some time later, a bill for $571,43 was received by New Britain. pr. Pullen entered into negotiations for settlement of the account, but had not reached an adjustment when he resigned and 1 his place was taken by Dr. Louis J. | Dumont. the present superintendent. Dr. Dumont found no disposition on inc part of the Bristol officials to settle the account at a reduction greater than $i00, and Chairman John J. McBriarty's inquiry for ! | 70 per cent payment was scoffed at. | Dr. Dumont then laid the facts be- fore Judge Kirkham, who presented a recommendation in writing to to- l days meeting.
 Judge kirkham's Opinions Judge klrkham explains that the health department is not concerned with the payment. irrespective of the facts, and that if payment is to be made it should be taken from the funds of the public welfare depart ment.
 Going into the specific case, Judge kirkham declares the bill is excess sive and without merit, because the boy was exposed to smallpox while a patient at the Bristol hospital and that his condition could be consid- cred the result of negligence at that institution. Since both the Bristol General hospital and the isolation

 Skzynirz selected this morning to He in wait and the darkness was in his favor He was not kept long, for the newsboy soon was at the basket and in a few seconds the chase was on. Down Main street as fast as his little legs could carry him, the boy with the doughnuts sped, and Skzynirz was only little way behind. Stop him, stop him. the storekeeper cried at the top of his lungs, and Officer William J. Me Carthy did just that He was on Main street and the capture was easy.
 At police headquarters Sergeant M. J. Flynn heard the story. Five doughnuts which had fallen out of the boys pockets as he rounded the corner of North and Main street would have been sufficient to in- criminatc him but there was Sky nirz's eyewitness tale and the lad S own admission.
 Sergeant Flynn talked to the boy as only he can. Undoubtedly the youngster heard something about the evils of theft which he had never known before, and the sergeant, sat isted that he had done his duty, sent him on his way to deliver his papers, while Officer McCarthy's report found its way to Miss Ruth Bristol, juvenile probation officer. Further investigation was being made today.

PUBLIC WORKS BOARD
 DEFIANT OF COUNCIL
Refuses to Have Subway Work Done by Private
 Contract

Pointing to many disadvantages and few advantages in the common councils recommendation that sub way work be done by contract, the board of public works last night went on record as isapproving the intent of a resolution adopted at the ,ast meeting of the council.
 Alderman J. Gustave Johnson of the fourth ward sponsored this reso- lution. After voting in favor of a bond issue to execute a program of subway improvements, the alderman, with several associates, was success full in having favorable vote taken on a recommendation that private contractors be engaged, on a com- petitive basis, to carry out the work. This action was formally reported to the board at it's meeting last night.
 One of the chief objections raised was the fact that t''o bond issue was intended as means by which work might be furnished local men who system, there is slight chance of many bclng given work, 1t was argued, and some of those who are unable to show pleasing results would be speedily dropped. It was also argued that contractors have not given the municipality jobs as satisfactory and as lasting as those handled by the public works depart men. The Wells street link of the trunk line sewer was cited as an out standing eHIml le.
 Progress is likely to be registered soon in the matter of a sewage disposal plant as the board of pub lie works at it's meeting last night voted to notify the board of finance that it was ready for a conference at the convenience of the finance board.
 The board voted to recommend the construction of service sewer in Sterling street between .Corbn and Pershing avenues. A hearing was held and of those present five opposed the sewer with three fa-

MAN PULLED FROM SEAT
 OF BLAZING AUTOMOBILE
Gas Station Owner ReScueS Driver Stunned by Sudden Ap-
 DearanCe of Flames.

When Henry Netupsky of 1l9 Hartford avenue pulled man out of a burning automobile last night and then eXtinguished the fire he performed an act that is sure to make him popular with the tiremen as it saved them from a run for q slight blaze.
 The rescue happened at his filling station at 119 Hartford avenue about 10:30-A man in a touring car had driven up to buy gasoline. The tank had hardly been filled when the car was seen to be on fire. Flames licked the hood and motor.
 The man sat in the seat too dazed to move. Netupsky seized him, dragged him out of the blazing car and then, flashing into the station returned with a chemical tank and put out the fire. The car was not i badly damaged but the wiring was put out of commission. An eXami- nation releaved that the exhaust | pipe was he'd hot.
 Netupsky does not know the mans nam and in the excitement the driver left without making his identity known.

Treasury Submits New Border Plan
 On Liquor Smuggling to Canadians

Washington, Jan. 2 R-The treas ury department has submitted to the Canadian government it's detailed program for improving prohibition enforcement along the border and. although official advices still are lacking. has been informed that the plan is regarded favorably at Otta- wa.
 Five hundred new ports of entry would be established under the new system, with the provision that traffic from Canada into the United States must cross the border at these places and the 100 ports of en- try already designated. This with a consolidated and increased border patrol to prevent smuggling between these points makes up the pro- gram.
 Before the plan can be made ef- fective an agreement must be reach ed with Canada as to the location of the ports of entry, Tn order that Canadian and American stations may be located at the same points. Officials here were greatly gratifed by indications of Canadian appro- val.
