officials declared that had the fire ob-. tained good headway 1t would have been impossible 70 save the house from destruction. The fact that someone failed to open the windows to supply the necessary ventilation was the only oversight for a perfect attempt at arson.
 Raimonte's disappearance puzzles the police. He purchased the home from Walter Colby, a neighbor. The latter has second mortgage on the place. There is a report that the Garro family carried considerable insurance on their furnishings and that the owner was well protected.
 An interesting feature of the case is that Raimonte bought the house through the agency of one Samuel Marxella of 14 Branch street. The latter's home was the scene of at. tempted incendiarism on May 24th. Three families, including twelve children, were made temporarily homeless by the ire. Whether Marzella and Raimonte have a com mon enemy remains for the police to learn.
 Fire Marshal Frank w. Holland. Lieutenant Joseph stevens or the local detective bureau, and State Trooper Leo Murphy of the state police departments arson squad are making the investigation. Several residents of Branch street were questioned yesterday and to-day. There is no. doubt in the minds of the authorities that the fire was de- liberately set. It was one of the most brazen efforts reported in vearS

Fifemen. later discovered that the floors of the three tenements had been saturated with kerosene oil. Gasoline was also used in generous quantities and under some linoleum was found evidence of tar oil, ap- parently stolen from a tank owned by the city. z Small holes had been bored into the floors. In addition to this evident deliberate attempt to set fire to the house, there were also indications that considerable cloth ing had been removed from two tenements.
 The first floor of, the house. where the fire broke out, was unoccupied. The second floor was the home of Mir and Mrs Carmeio Garro. They have explained their absence. They went to Lake Compounce Wednes- day night and were unable to return home until yesterday afternoon. Their automobile became disabled and they spent the night and yes- to-day with relatives in Bristol. They knew nothing of the fire until they returned to Waterbury. They ex- plaineds that early Wednesday night Mfr Garro removed some clothing from their tenement. but what was taken away was nothing but the weeks wash.

MEN IN GERMANY BY '45
 STATISTICS SAY
By FREDERICK KUH

(United Press Stan Correspondent) Berlin.-Germany, now known AS lthe bachelors paradise owing to It's enormous surplus of women, may be transformed into the Eldorado of spinsters by 1945, when for the first time on record the number of mar
 riageable men is expected to exceed
 that of women.
 This is the significance of dry-as-
 dust statistics, recently published by the government bureau of statistics. An expert. Dr George Neuhaus of Bonn in an article contributed to the
 "Koelnische Zeitung," has interpret ed these oficial figures and extracted from them the glad tidings for maiden aunts" of the rising genera
 tion. Excess Women in 1925 There were 2,329,000 more Ger man women than men of marriage able age In 1925. By 1945 this dis crepancy will not only be wiped out. | but the tables will be turned and Germany will harbor 46,000 more lmarriageable men than women.
 That, however, will merely be a mod
 est beginning. Within an additional IS years the prospects for husband seeking women will have improved
 vastly, for in 1860 there will be 1,- 0S5,000 more marriageable men than
 women among Germany's inhabit-
 ants.
 Every national census in Germany revealed a vast surplus of women,
 despite the fact that more than 105 boys were born to every 100 girls. The preponderance of German wo- men over men has been due to the higher mortality rate among males land to the great streams of emigra-
 ton among venturesome German youths and men.
 Up to the age of 20. boys. re- mained more numerous than girls: but 1t has been at this age that . higher male death-rate set In and emigration undertaken on large scale. SO that the total or Ger
 man women above 20 increasineiy surpassed the number Of men. The
 war, of course. tremendously raised population.
 situtai0n Changing This situation Is changing. The
 decline In the surplus of German
 women started this year. Several
 causes account for this change. First, emigration of German men has declined rapidly and will con
 tlnue to decline; secondly. the number of boys born. in ratio to each 100 girl-babies. recorded at
 iO6.b between 1900 and iei4. rose 70 iOs In 1919 and amounted to toG Iin 1921, finally. there has been a greater decrease in the death.rate among men than women of mar lriageabie aee.

 Hackers of the present strike told Dreiser the United Mine Workers of America had been broken in this field in 1927 and the miners were left to shift for themselves under conditions almost unbelievable and for starva- tion wages.

 According to the police the two youths made three attempts to stage a robbery, but in police court today only one proprietor of a restaurant appeared and offered testimony. He claimed that the two accused entered his place of business and demanded a drink. He refused them and Stanis is alleged to have drawn the gun from his pocket and to have ordered the owner to "stick lem up." As Sherman started for the cash register the proprietor reached for
