ARCHBISHOP OPPOSES
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
British Prelate Asserts Behavior
of Community as a Whole Is
Affected by Penalty.
By the Associated Press.

LONDON. July 9.-The Most Rev.
William Temple. Archbishop of York
is one of the few witnesses who have
come so far before the Royal Commits
sion on Punishments to favor the abo-
lition of the death penalty.
DR.. Temple left the Lambeth Confer
ence of Bishops for an hour to give his
evidence.
II dissent from the view that pun
iShment should be regarded as regu-
lated vengeance" the archbishop stated.
From a Christian viewpoint. ven
geance is entirely illegitimate. The in
Fiction of death or outlawry would.
perhaps, be justifable in the case of
man who was wholly evil, but no per-
son was ever thus"
The main argument advanced by the
archbishop, from a sociological view
point, was that the behavior of a COM
munity as a whole was so largely imi-
tative that the reaction to the taking
of life by the state tended to a lower
general conception Of the sanctity of
human life.

SCHOOL BOARD ACTS
 ON AUDITORIUM FEE
Special Meeting Held This Ait.
 ern0on on Rent Charges

Dissatisfaction which has been freely expressed about the city con- corning the rental rates of the Senior to be removed this afternoon when the school board at q special meet ing will hear a report from a sub committee relative to reduction rates in the evening rental. A re- duction of $50 in the evening rate will be recommended.
 The original rates. set last Janu- ary, were adopted by the school board. Among other recommends tions the rate for evening rental was S175. EXponents of this rate claim cd that the auditorium was in reali- ty a theater with accommodations for great many people. Those who thought the rate was too high argued that the auditorium was communi- ty proposition and if the price were too high the organizations planning to conduct events there would be discouraged.
 Since that time members of the school board have claimed residents have told them the price was high and this objection came to a head at the last board meeting when the board was asked to make a decision on request of the New Britain Musical club for rental of the audi torium on the evening of May 93 at a cost covering overhead expenses only.
 After a discussion it was voted to leave tho matter with a special com- mittce consisting of School Commit tccmen Joseph M Ward, Louis w. Young, Henry T. Burr and pr. Hcn- ry Martin.
 President Herbert Woods of the New Britain Musical club is expect ed to appear at the school board meeting today in the interest of the club which is sponsoring a free con- cert the night the special rental is requested.
 Although no definite report has been given it is said that there may be discussion relative to rebate to the Lions club which conducted its frolic at the auditorium recently. It paid $l15 for each of the three nights.

NOSE IMPORTANT,
 ZlEGFELD ASSERTS
Most Vital Point Of Beauty in
 Lovely Features

Hollywood Cal, April q (UP) - Florenz Ziegfeld selects the we'll moulded nose as the most important prerequisite to beautiful features.
 "A good nose" he said, lis the most important feature a girl can have. She must also have beautiful eyes, hair, complexion and figure, of course, but the nose comes first.
 The chin is another important factor but it is secondary to the nose. Probably it is because the nose and chin are the first things we look at in judging a persons face"
 Ziegfeld declared that no age lim- it can be placed on beauty.
 Some women remain beautiful longer than others" he explained. Some grow beautiful in a different way as they become older. General ly for our type of show, a girl is most beautiful under 25."
 The American girl glorifier" pick ed Hazel Forbes and Gladys Glad as the loveliest women he has ever seen. Both are blondes.

AVER|LL COMP ARES
 WATER CASE BRIEF
Connecticut'S Objections to Di-
 version Outlined in Papers

Hartford, April q PS-Deputy Attorney General Ernest L. Averill and Attorney Benedict M. Holden, special counsel, have finished thci:' brief to be submitted to Special Master Charles w. Bum of St. Paul, Minn., on Wednesday, in the case ot Commonwealth of Massachusetts. in which Connecticut seeks to pre- vent the metropolitan district of Boston from diverting the Swift and Ware rivers from the watershed of the Connecticut river.
 The Connecticut brief consists of tfirty-one pages and stresses forty three points on claims set forth at the opening of the case before the special master at Boston, Mass, February IS.
 In addition to the brief Connec- ticut is filing 56 pages of comments or exhibits filed in the case, in which the exhibits arc explained
  offered with relation to them.
 Claim Charges Proven
 The brief holds that the material allegations of the bill of complaint have either been admitted by the Massachusetts answer or have been proved by an abundance of test mony, which ;n many very import ant aspects were uncontradicted. It not only stresses the points Connec- ticut claims to have proved, but by reference to the testimony of wit nesses for both sides in the contro- versy and exhibits offered before the master, tends to prove the conten- tions.
 Connecticut conclusions in the brief are that the taking of water IS an invasion of rights that cannot De denied; that it will cause damage to various interests in the state of Connecticut is proved by a clear preponderance of the evidence; that it is a taking of navigable waters, a fact which must be accepted by the court, established by the action of Massachusetts and of the war department as we'll as by the evI- dence; that the taking is but the first step in the execution of a plan which has it's ultimate object the taking of other rivers tributary to the Connecticut; that the taking is unnecessary; that it must be stop ped some time: that the ineXhausti- ble supply within the eastern water shed must be gathered and made available for consumption by the metropolitan district, or greater supply must be taken from the in terstate streams.
 No Justification Given
 It is asserted that Massachusetts has not given, neither can it give, any satisfactory justification for taking the waters of an interstate stream for use in a water shed which has already been abundantly supplied by nature.
