ADVERTISING DODGE PUTS GRAY IN JAIL
Continued From First Pagc)


 plea Of guilty for Gray on one of four counts to which a plea of not guilty was entered Saturday. II charged that Gray obtained a cheek for S31.20 from George kaplan, sec rotary Of the John 4. Andrews Co, hy false representations. Three other counts were nolled.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods told the court that Gray used every arti- flee and device possible 10 work his game. He called him "a smart, intel ligent, clever fellow who would sign his name to almost anything if it would bring business to him, but he had no right to deceive anyone ny giving name other than his own. MT. Woods said he took into consideration the fact that Gray has a wife and child. and he warned the court that Attorney. Greenberg would make the claim that Gray would actually have placed the ad- vertisements as he agreed to do, nevertheless he had no right under the law 10 represent himself as an authorized agent of the Central Labor Union Of Bristol, as Woods said he had done in getting business from kaplan.
 Greenbcrg Explains Plea
 Attorney Greenberg said he had been prepared to defend Gray on the ground that his proposition was q legitimate one in that he solicited advertisements and could place them on bulletins as he agreed, but Prosecuting Attorney Woods, who was very fair in the matter, had called his attention to Gray's action in representing that he was author izcd by the labor union to solicit the business. which constituted a viola ton of the law hence the plea of guilty.
 The attorney said it was his b. lief that Gray was over jealous III his efforts to obtain advertisements and that was probably the reason he made the misrepresentations. His wife. who was in court with hcl small daughter, would, Of course suffer innocently because of the of l-fense. As to the fine, Attorney fGreenberg said he expected Gray'' brother. who formerly practiced law in Bridgeport, would be able to at tend to it this week. Otherwise, ht said. Gray is penniless.
 After the case was disposed or, warrant charging Gray with some what similar offcnse in Bristol Wa: lodged against him and the statf i Federation of Labor officials declar- cd that they would have him prose crted in Middletown if 1t was pos siblc to do so.

more votes than all of Litchfeld county.
 Q Moreover Waterbury alone had a democratic margin Of more than half of the whole republican mar gin for Glynn in his own county.
 Ansonia and Derby, both political fighting grounds, went democratic. The democrats have always made the fifth Connecticut district battle ground but have carried if only once, int19o2 when Patrick B. O'Sullivan carried 1t from MT Glynn by 294 votes but lost 1t next time to Glynn by 9S33.
 MT. O'sullivan now lives just out side tho fifth and in Mr, Tilson' 5 district,
 In the special election the interest will rest in the power wlclded by the New Haven county towns. In 1923 Glynn had 43,322 votes in the dis trict as against 39,354 for Edward Mascolo of Waterbury. The 1 towns mentioned gave Glynn 22,S3f and Mascolo 2s,T09, and Glynn needed 6 large part of Litchfield county mar gin to pull through. The prohibition amendment question was a topic 10 which democratic speakers gave al most all their attention in 1928 and the forecast by close observers is that 1t will come into the special election campaign. Republican and democratic state committee chair men already have moved to start town organizations at work, State Chairman J. J. Walsh of the latter body announcing his belief that tho election should be held as soon as possible
