!. The long sstanding difference over the ptrc haee of school site in Fair lawn Manor took a new turn yester- day. Corporation Counsel Charles s. O'C0nnor- appeared before the school board and explained that when the deeds were filed with him he noticed that they made no mention of seventy foot restriction on both sides of the property He wanted to apprise the board of the fact, so that they may act with full knowledge of the situation. Mir Butler explained that this in mo- way interfered with the lot for school purposes and mov- ed that the deeds be passed. adding that the lot is ample in size for a school with these restrictions. MT Butler went on to explain that most of the schools tare back seventy feet from the street line.
 There was some discussion on this motion, and finally Commissioner Miller moved that consideration of the matter be tabled to give time to see what effect. if any. the restric- tons would have on the property for school purposes. s-~s
 Commissioner Sculiy said he was opposed to the lot before he had heard of the restrictions and that he
 
 ton longer. Mir Scully wanted MT Buffers motion put to vote to deter mine whether or not 1t was the in- tentlOn of the board to purchase the property regardless of the restric- tions But the motion to defe.. action was cnrried, nobody opposing it but Commissioner Scully and Chairman Walsh.
 During the discussion Mir O'Con- nor answered several questions one of which was to the effect that under the conditions the property owners cannot g.ve warranty deeds, and that MT White does not represent all the property owners. He had an option on the property but failed to take advantage of it. This is the way the matter stands at present but judging by what transpired yesterday 1t is the intention of q majority of the board to adhere 10 their former ac- ton to buy the property.
 Another restriction spoken about stated that the building shall be con- structed on the premises with flat roof. "A roof with any pitch what ever is not q fiat roof" said Mir Butler. disrnis3ing this restriction with that statement. No other mem- Der of the board commented on this. The report or the committee on schoolhouses recommended that the contract for the addition to E. W. Tinker school be given to the fol- lowing: general. to Tremaglio Bro thers for $55,S73.40, their bid being the lowest; provided the contract and bond meets with the approval of the corporation counsel: heating to NJ J. Daly, the basic figure their bid being the lowest: to Wiehn Elec- trical company for $3.S30; while the sprinkling and plumbing bid was not let as tabulation was not complete. Superintendent Michael. c. Dono- l van reported that the following girls have completed their coArses at Dan bury Normal school and asked that i their names be put on the waiting list: Margaret M.

 The San Miguel station, whose broadcast was picked up by the President Garfield, Is in the Azores.
 St Michael is the largest of the Azores islands. lying in the eastern part of the little mid Atlantic group. The chief town is Ponta Delgada.
 If the Tradewind reached the vicinity of Saint Michael Island 1t would have passed over most of the Azores Islands. probably flying south of Horta. The plane had been expected to land at Horta, on Kayal Island, in the western part of the Azores, but might easily have over-sbot the port in darkness and storm despite the fact that flares were lighted at Horta in an effort to guide the flyers.
 The President Garfield of the Dol lar line left Marseilles, France last Wednesday bound for New York on the last ,eg of -the-world trip. While the New York offices had had no word of the vessels position since that date, it was sad that under normal conditions the Garfield today should be southward Of the Azores.
 It was not known whether the vessel would shift it's course. A, the home of Mrs Hart's mother, Mrs Cora Mansfield, iR New York word of the message transmitted by the United Press brought hope that the red haired axiatrix might still te rescued.

Bouett Admits Bookkeeping Entries
 Were Made In Error
Second Witness for State Testfes Regarding Office Work-CIaims SchofeId Absent From Business During Fall Months s-Admits He Did Not GO Over Accounts Daily

crime NJ. Del Masco of Hartford, stenographer in the office of Banking Comm missioncr Lester E. Shippee, who answered q few questions con- corning the bankruptcy hearing of Schofield in Hartford on January 6, 1930.
 Bouett said he became associated with Schofield in 1929 when the company was located in the Water bury National Bank building. He said Miss Pritchard. stenographer, and clerk were in the office and he was given the supervisors posi- tion. In July of 1929 he said, the company moved to Leavenworth and Center streets. States Attorney Lewis handed him several books which he identified as a blotter, check books and ledgers. He exam ined them and said they were the books of the company.
 Judge Frederick M. Peasley sus- tained the objection of Public De- fender Attorney w. w. Gager to Mir Lewis question as to where the ac- cused charged customers commis- sion for stock purchased by them.
 On cross examination Attorney Gager brought out from Bouett that Schofield was away most of the time during last October and Novem- Der and was not in active touch with the sales being made by his sales men. Bouett admitted that Schofield did not have knowledge of each i'm dividuaI sale made by his agents. He also said Schofield did not go through the blotter every day, the book described as the record which kept the account of the daily sales.
 States Attorney Lewis took the witness again and questioned him concerning a confirming blank, on which was an amount of $7.50 in the place marked commission" |" Bouett had previously admitted that the company was not a brokerage house and to charge commission would classify the company as d brokerage house. The witness ad- mitted that the entry should not have been placed on the blank and that it must have been mistake.
 The other mistake was found by MT Lewis when he was following Bouett's description of the methods in which records were made in the ledgers. The witness could not ac. count for a certain entry and finally admitted that it should not have been put there.
 The case is expected to take all week for trial. Not many spectators were in the court room as they probably sensed that the hearings would be of dry, technical nature.

more than 100 murders since the World war. A desire to own their own land and preference for men younger than their husbands, were given as the motives for the crimes.
 We are no murderers," one of the women cried at her trial. ''We have not beaten, stabbed, or drowned our husbands. They died of arsenic. and for them it was pleasant and pain less death."
 The principal argument in favor of the defendants was. the drunken ness of their men. The crimes were committed in or near the village of Theisswinkel. an isolated spot in the Theiss river district where heavy wine drinking was alleged to be the principal pastime of the men.
 The defense also. emphasized the lack of religious education on the
 part of the women, and the fact that the community in which they lived
 was ''overpopulated and means of earning was restricted

 SPECIAL TAXES

Buyers of fire insurance iodirectIy but actually contribute vast sum-approximatey 30 million dollars annualIy Iy-in taxes, most ot which are of special nature and in addition to the regular taxes borne by insurance con- pones. Such taxes are burden upon the premium 1.-the polcyholder notwithstanding they are collected from the companies. The original purpose of taxes on the premiums paid by poIcyhoIders was to maintain state supervision of the business However, such supervision now uses but few cents of each dollar SO collected The balance goes into the general funds of the stotes.
 Add to the Cost of Insurance These special and regular state taxes arc factors in the cost of insurance. The opinion of the Chamber of Commerce. of the United States has been expressed as follows:
 .: Special state taxes now levied
 on poicyhoIders through insurance con-
 penies should not be considered as a
 source of general revenue, but should
 be reduced to the total in each state
 which will adequately support such
 state departmental supervision ::
