 The bill now being prepared will embody many proposals contained in the Charter commissions city manager bill. It will also include many ideas of Mayor Hayes which to date have had the earmarks of pro- gressive legislation. It is hoped that the bill. when completed. will bring about the discarding of the city manager proposition entirely so that no referendum will be necessary here on the question.
 One big change in the city gov- ernment to be proposed in the new bill concerns the powers of the board of education. After the recent ex- perience of the city with the board of education the municipal fathers favoring clipping some of the in- dependent powers from the school commissioners and also favor giving more power to the finance board and aldermen as regards expenditures by the school department.
 It is possible that the bill now nearing completion will be offered to the committee on cities and bor- oughs next Wednesday. For on that date several Waterbury bills will be heard, one of them being Mayor

THE FLYING GIRL
 STENOCRAPHER
 CLAIMS RECORD


 Akron, Ohio. March 14.-(UP)-- Miss Frankie Renner, Akron's flying stenographer, was ready to nose into the clouds again to-day if official ex- animation did not bear out her claims of new altitude record for women. Gliding to earth after . four-hour flight yesterday, Miss Ren- ner claimed she had ascended to more than 3O,000 feet, an unofficial record for women established last week by Miss Ruth Nichols, New York society girl.
 The a1timeter on Miss Renner's small Wacco biplane was frozen al the 28,0O0 foot level but she said she was sure her barograph would show she had bettered that mark by ap- proximately 5000 feet. Until the paragraph is calibrated by the U. S. bureau of standards at Washington, her exact altitude will not be known.
 'If did not establish a new rec ord yesterday, shall naturally be disappointed" Miss Renner said to- day, But if I didn't-well, I shall try again. can be ready at any time."
 The 30-year-old flyer, who is sec. retary of the Robbins flying service was nearly frozen when she brought her ship to graceful stop at the Robbins flying field at Stow, Akron suburb, late yesterday.

Palm Beach Was
 Scene of Robbery
(Continued from Page 1)

The unwilling victim of the gang Otto Wagener, middle-aged sales man, remained in seclusion in a ho- tel. Captured by the robbers, he had given them keys and sofe com binations for the firms Palm Beach store, enabling them to enter the store quietly and get away with the huge amounts of gems.
 With Wagner was Grant A. Pea cock, local manager for Charlton and Company. He refused to dis but told the United Press over the telephone that "Wagencr is her with me, but I won't let him talk"
 There isn't anything to it, and the less said about 1t in the news papers. the better" Peacock said. Our store was entered and all the valuable jewelry and gems were taken. The loss was fully covered by insurance. That's all there is to it."
 Sheriff Baker, who took charge of the police investigation of the crime before insurance detectives arrived. visited the stucco bungalow where Wagener was held prisoner over night and said he believed the sales mans story was substantially true There were a few slight discrepan- cies in the story. he said. but he be- lieved that Wagener, who has served Charlton and Company for 17 years had no intentional part in the crime
 The story told by Wagener was as follows:
 He was returning to his hotel with Peacock shortly before midnight Thursday night when he was hailed by his first name by a man sitting in a large sedan outside the en- trance. He walked over to the car, and the man, initiating drunkenness. grasped him by the arm. Before he could break away he was pulled in- to the car and thrown into the rear seat, with handcuffs clamped on his wrists and a blanket thrown over his head to prevent him from iden-

 In the house Wagener was tied to the kitchen sink while his captors mand, he gave them the keys to the jewelry store and the combination to it's safe. Then all but one of the bandits left, leaving only guard over Wagener.
 The three returned about 6 a. m., and left again with the guard. Wagener Immediately set to work on his bonds, freed himself. and mo- tified Peacock, who in turn teie- phoned police.
 A confusion angle is given to the case by the assertion of E. H. Odum. night watchman at the store. who said that he had left the store at 2 a. m. and that it was intact at that hour.
 When Peacock and police arrived at the store about 8:30 a. m., how ever, the place was in the widest confusion. It was stripped of every gem of any value.
 A partial list of the missing jewels, as given out by Sheriff Baker, in- cluded one pearl necklace. valued at $75,000 and another at $50.000; one $15,OO0 diamond ring and several other rings totalling $75,000; brace lets worth s1O0,O00; brooches total ling $15O.000 and pearls worth $250,- The total value of the missing gems was we'll over $1,000,000.

He stands for repeal of the 18th amendment, whereas Norris favors further trial. The kinship between them has revealed when Norris invited Roosevelt to attend the progressive conference, and Roosevelt, though unable to come, replied with sym pathetic message.
 Senator Burton K. Wheeler, dem, Mont, one of the signers of the call for a progressive conference, said:

Market Continues To Hold Up Well
Past Week Once More Demonstrates Strong Underlying
 Qualities of Present Market

New York-March 14--The un- deriving strength of market condi- tions has been again demonstrated during the past week by the large new financing, which has been ab- sorbed without difficulty. On a sim gle day, three issues, aggregatfng
 $191, 100000 fell simultaneously upon the bond market and were readily bought up by purchasers of high-grade securities at prices yield ing SM to 4.22 per cent. Coming as these large offerings did immediately after the heavy financing by the treasury and by the City of New York. the response of investors to them afforded an unusual tribute to the size and strength of the savings fund, which is now available for the making of investments of sound and satisfactory type. The truth is that the tone and general outlook now prevalent in financial circles are bet- ter than for a long while past; and the confidence and optimism thus displayed must be taken as fore- shadowing positive recovery in bus mess at no distant date, present im- provement being merely symptom of the steady and larger gains which are unmistakably on the way.
 All things considered, quotations have held up fairly well during the week. Day to day transactions have been largely of professional char acter, but now that constructive in- fluences appear to be gaining ground. wider investment interest may be expected. It should not be forgotten that the market itself is thoroughly liquidated, with floating supplies of stocks very limited. so that 1t is not likely to suffer any se- rious depression. During the up and down movements. which may be ex- pected to continue for the immedi- ate future while awaiting positively satisfactory growth in business, the trading opportunities presented are exceptionally good. Whenever profit taking brings about temporary re- cession, 1t will be the part of wis., dom to make purchases, particular ly among those issues which have

 Up the nine-foot side of the dock
 the boy climbed, with only the in- terstices of granite blocks to cling to. While nearly exhausted, the
 boy stopped only long enough for n glance at the black waters in which
 his mother and brother and sister
 had perished, and then started his
 run to the village. The woman's husband was notified
 and arrived few hours after the tragedy. His wife had been melan-
