MOSLEMS ARE THE SOLE OWNERS OF
 WHALING WALL
But the Jews Are to Have Free Access to the Wall for Devotions C0mnis- sion Decides Dispute

London, June S- (UP) - A commission headed by Eliel Loef- gren, former Swedish foreign min- ister, has unanimously decided that the Moslems are sole owners of the historic "Wailing Wall' in Je- rusalem, but that the Jews are to have free devotional access to the wall subject to certain stipulations. These stipulations refuse permis- sion to blow the ceremonial ram's- horn nearby, while at the same time the Moslems are prohibited from holding the Zikr ceremony or other- wise interfere with Jewish devotions.
 The wall, part of the ward prop erty of the Harm Esh- -Sherif, Is con- sidered sacred by both Jews and Moslems. The question of Jewish access to the wall led to the rioting and bloodshed of 1929.
 Great Britain appointed the Loef- gre commission with approval of the League of Nations after the ls2s disorders.

BODY OF FORMER STATE SENATOR
 NOT YET FOUND
Mystery Still Shrouds Dis- appearance of Chelso L. Arrigoni From the Camp of Jack Delaney

The Weirs. N. H., June S-(UP) -Confiicting theories regarding the fate of former State Senator Chelso L. Arrigoni of Connecticut hampered the search for his body to-day. A three.day search of the bottom of fake Winnepsaukee was made on the basis of reports that the wealthy 31.year-old road builder disappeared from the rear cockpit of motor boat while crossing the lake a week ago yesterday from Jack Delaney's camp.
 When these diving operations failed to produce any clue, inves- tigators considered the possibility that Arrigoni might have reached shore and. perhaps dazed, wandered into the woods.
 While Bickford W. Brooks, deep sea diver, was making another in- spection of the lake bottom to-day men and dogs were to hunt the woods surrounding the lake. Author ities have considered a theory of foul play but have concluded that this cannot be substantiated until the body is found. At a. m. to-day the time limit was reached in connec- tion with a $1,500 reward offered by Frank Arrigoni, father of Chelso, for the recovery of the body.

During the Electrical Storm Yesterday Morning, the Homes of Nils MunsOn and William Quick on Bucks Hill Were Badly Damaged

Two houses in Waterbury were severely damaged early yesterday morning when they were struck by lightning. The electrical attack yesterday morning ushered in a rain storm which kept the city deluged throughout the day but which did no damage to local streets or public utility lines. The houses struck were those of Nils Munson and Will liam Quick on Bucks Hill. The Mun- son home was very badly damaged while the Quick house, nearby, was slightly damaged.
 The same bolt of lightning dam aged both houses. It appears that the lightning first hit the Munson home and then, after ripping one section of the house apart, went along and glanced off the Quick residence, doing slight damage there. Nobody was hurt.
 Residents of both houses called

work of finding it. Johnson said, was being directed by Robert E. Nicely, acting collector of Internal Revenue.
 Ut is not as easy as 1t sounds" said Nicely. "Capone had no bank accounts = at least not in his own name. No doubt he owns much property, including stills and per- hays bank or two, but others own them in name. He dealt in cash only"
 Nicely said civil liens would be filed against every dollars worth of property Capone owned - when it is found. These actions, he said. are entirely apart from the criminal in- dictments returned last week.
 Even if Capone is found guilty and sentenced to the maximum S2 years possible under the charges. it will not mean cancellation of the $215,080 debt which the government says he owes, Nicely said. His prop erty, when found, will be seized just as the federal government once seized the cows and other property of Frank Lakk, another Chicago gangster whom the government went after and also got.

WHAT'S ON at the SHOW? |?

"HOneymoon, an uproar- iously funny farce-comedy, with Harry Gribbon and Polly Moran in the leading roles, will be the chief offering at tie Hyder movie show this (Satur- day) evening. This feature was created by the Metro-GoiG- wyn-Mayer corporation with but one idea in mind-to make it one of the funniest play stories ever filmed. Naturally they selected Polly Moran, probably the screens most famous commediene, and Crib bon, who has provided laugh ter for film audiences since the old Mack Sonnet comedies, to portray the chief characters. And the net result is a verit- able riot of funny situations, Someone said: Tt has more darned laughs than Niagara has water.'
