 Commodore King Victim.
 Fowey, Cornwall, Eng, Aug. 2t (P-At least six persons, amnog whom it was feared were two or three members of parliament and one or more women, were believed drowned when the yacht Islander was wrecked on the rocks of Lanti- vet Bay in violent storm last night.
 The yacht had been chartered by Commodore Henry Douglas King. conservative member of parliament. and there was grave apprehension that he, with other members who had been invited to accompany him. had perished when the yacht met disaster
 The Islander, 46-foot vessel owned by Lt.-Col John N. Diggle of the Royal Yacht squadron, went to pieces on the jagged coast under the bluffs which at the point of the disaster rise to a height of from 50 10 300 feet.
 Vessel Breaks Up
 So far as known this afternoon, no member of the party or crew had been saved from the yacht. Coast guardsmen who had attempt ed all night to rescue the persons on board, both by firing lines across the ship and lowering men over the precipice, reported that the vessel had entirely broken up.
 The port of Fowey is the haven of many storm bound vessels. It is the headquarters of a coast guard division and has a lighthouse. The water is extremely dangerous and the coast is strewn with powders. The famed Udder Rock lies half a mile of the eastern shore of Lar1- tivet Bay and uncovers two feet at the lowest tide. It is known as one of the most dangerous points of the section. The yacht apparently miss, ed this menace before crashing.
 The yacht, which was owned by Lieutenant Colonel John N. Diggle, had been taking part in regattas of the Royal Yacht squadron along the south coast.
 Signals were received here in the night that the vessel was in distress and lifeboat went out from Fowey.
 The life saving crew was unable to approach the vessel, however, and lifeline was shot over the yacht.
 Apparently nobody on board was

HOSPITAL CURTAILS CLASS IN NURSING
Lack of Housing Accom- modations Prompts h.
 stitution to Act

So crowded is the nurses home of the New Britain General hospital that it is necessary to curtail the size of the class of student nurses because of lack of quarters, accord ing to Miss Maude E. Traver, direc- tress Of nurses, today.
 With accommodations for only 50 nurses in the dormitory and the minimum number under which the hospital can function being consider ably more than that, the institution has almost a 50 per cent nursing personnel more than it's housing ac- |commodations, while from 10 to Is more students could be trained if they could be houSd.
 The incoming class, which has been curtailed because of lack of ac- comm odations, will bring the num- lber of nurses, graduates and stu dents up to 70, while the needs of |the institution require so to S5, it is said This is in addition to about 15 senior nurses housed in an adjoin- hng building and the night nurses WHO Sieep III tue dulllilllStTdllOn building.
 So serious are conditions in the nurses home that in some cases nurses are sleeping three in a room. Several times within the past few hays it has been necessary to shift nurses from one room to another in order that proper accommodations might be made for incoming stu dents.
 The need of a new nurses home was announced about three years Igo when James s. North, president bf the training school, announced It a public graduation exercises that

 Since that ti ne the demand for hospital service has been growing,

BOGUE BOUND OVER
 FOR SHAVING TWO
Tries to Plead Guilty to Double
 Murder in Groton
PLEA ORDERED CHANGED
Court Unable to Accept That Offer ed By Prisoner-Bogue, Alleged Killer of Woman and Rival, Maintains Solid Compsure.

New London, August 21 P1 Stanley Bogue, self-confessed mur- derer of Eva Jennings Roberts and Ole Ostberg, whom he is alleged to have slain with an axe in the kitchen of Mrs Roberts home in Groton a week ago Saturday night, pleaded guilty to charge of first degree murder when presented be- fore a special session of the Groton town court today before Judge Cor nclius c. Costello.
 Following his plea, Bogue was bound over on probable cause to the September term of the criminal superior court, without bonds, to await trial and indictment. He was not represented by counsel.
 Retains Composure
 .Bogue, who has maintained the same stolid composure which char acterized him when arraigned short ly after the crime, was perfectly calm when he rose to plead to the formal charge. The word guilty was practically the only one which passed his lips during the whole of the brief procedure.
 He was escorted following a hearty and cheerful breakfast, from the New London county jail, by Troopers Arthur Whitmarsh and Donald C. Brown of the Groton state police barracks, to the Groton police court, where he was present. ed Immediately after pleading. he wasSreturned to the jail in this city.
 Since one charged with the crime ot first degree murder cannot plead guilty to the charge, the court re- fused to accept Bogue's plea and evidence was presented to determine whether probable cause existed for binding the accused over.

Advises New York City Judge Investigation on OWn Motion
 Is Advisable
SAYS PUBLIC ENTITLED
 TO LEARN FULL FACTS
Writes Justice Bowling of Appellate Di,ision-Citywide Inquiry Fore cast as Attorney General Ward Invited Every Citizen With h. formation to Come Forward and Reveal It to Investigators.

Albany N. Y, Aug. 21 LP}-Gov- crnor Roosevelt has sent letter to Victor J. Bowling, presiding justice of the Appellate division, first de- partment, which embraces Manhat- tan and the Bronx, urging that the Appellate division investigate on it's own motion 'the magistrates courts under it's jurisdiction and the justices thereof, so that the public may know the facts.'
 The governor made public the let ter just before he left for a tour of inspection through southern tier counties. His letter follows:
 Recent charges against certain magistrates have raised a question as to the conduct Of the magistrates courts and the magistrates them- selves.
 As you know, by virtue of the constitution and statutes of the state, the Appellate divisions have been given the supervision Of our inferior courts. There are over three thou- J of these inferior courts. These off cers are removable by the Appellate division alone. and by no other au- thority, not even the governor or the legislature
 No Specific Charges
 While it is true that no specific charges have been presented to me
  sitting on the bench, the appellate division is nevertheless in my opin- ion charged with the broad respons- hility of seeing to it that public confidence in the inferior courts is maintained. May l therefore urge that the appellate division acting un- der the provisions Of Section 132 of the code of criminal procedure as amended by Chapter 500 of the Laws of 1880, investigate on it's own mo- ton, the magistrates courts under its jurisdiction and the justices thereof so that the public may know the facts.'
 It was expected that the governor before long would write to Presiding Justice Edward Lazinski of the ap- pellate division, second department, which embraces Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island, suggesting that body undertake an inquiry similar to that suggested in the letter to Justice Bowling. This would extend the investigation to all of the magis- trates' courts in New York City.
 Explains Order
 Before leaving the governor was asked if he agreed with the opinion

Emergency Slash of One Per Cent Allowed During Past Year Unlikely to be Repeated-Congres
 sional Action Necessary-Still too Early to Talk Definitely, Mellon Says

was too early to begin talking with any dehniteness about the tax sit uation.
 The treasury secretary said no estimate would be made about the future at this time. It was indicat- ed he agreed with the treasury ex- perts that the general business sit uation just now does not warrant hope for extending the emergency reduction over another year.
 No action is expected to be taken by the treasury in the formulation of the tax policy for next year until shortly before the December session of congress convenes.

Washington, Aug. ,21 Pl-Treasury officials see little prospects of main taining for next year the reduction of one per cent in income taxes which was allowed this year as an emergency measure by congress.
 Congressional action would be necessary to extend the emergency reduction over another year. Unless action is taken at the short session beginning next December, the tax rates enacted in 1928 would apply on next years taxes.

New York, August q P-The room in which state hearing on food prices is being held was clear ed today at the instance of Deputy Attorney General William Groat, Jr.. who declared that at a previous session a witness had been intimi- dated and made afraid for his life.
 After it was cleared. accredited newspa permen and attorneys with a right to be present were readmit- ted and two officers of the Washing ton Deliverymen's Association were called 10 testify.
 Members of the association have been charged with boycotting the eggs of the Utah Poultry Producers Association because it dealt directly with retailers instead of through jobbers.
 The witnesses, William R. Dos cher. president of the trHckmen, and Sol Newman, recording secretary, were excused at once and ordered to produce immediately all books and records of the association.
 Of the intimidation charge, Groat said he had not yet discovered who threatened one of his witnesses, and declined to identify the witness or to put him back on the stand be- cause the man had said he feared for his life.
 The investigation was adjourned until Monday and William B. Groat. Jr., the>assistant attorney general conducting the inquiry, said mean while he would go upstate to seek evidence of new chain operations.

the Mayor aud Board of Alder
men Monday night Mr.. Crenshaw
said:
"Gentlemen: I hereby tender
my resignation as a member OF
your honorable body, such resig
nation to be effective immediate

In handing in this resignation
I wish to express to the people
of Nogales my gratitude for the
confidence they held in me when
they elected me member of the
present administration, and my
gratitude to each of you who
have so worked for the interest
of the city at large that our work

"This resignation is being ten
dered for the reason that I desire
to become candidate for the
Democratic nomination for State
Senator and I do not think that
person holding one public
Office, even though it is without
pay, should be a candidate for
another.
II think that the next legis

much to do towards relieving
the people of the tax burden
under which they are now stag
gering or towards heaping even
g. greater tax burnen upon them.
Having had experience of serv
ing two legislative terms l be
lieve that I can be of great
assistance in reducing that tax
burden and furthering the inter
ests of the City of Nogales, the
County of Santa Cruz and the
State of Arizona.
Yours very truly,
