 The police have no wish to put a damper on the celebration of Halloween. They hope the ob- servance win not only be bigger and better than ever. but more sensible. Orders have been issued that youths caught in the act ot damaging or setting fire to prop erty are to be placed under arrest.
 The entire motor patrol has been ordered for duty Saturday evening. From 6:30 o'clock to II o'clock two platoons of police will be in charge of affairs. The afternoon squad which usually goes off at 7:45 o'clock will remain on duty until 9:30 o'clock. The night pla- toon will report an hour earlier of 6:30 o'clock. This provision places more than two-thirds of the regu- lar force on duty and in reserve for any emergency. The motor patrol will cover all sections of the city and will be kept in constant communication with headquarters so that complaints from any sec- ton can be relayed without delay. The same arrangement existed last year and the results were very, gratifying. Very few instances of malicious damage to buildings were reported.
 In anticipation of the evening. notice was posted several weeks ago that no requests for time off from members of either the after noon or evening platoon would be considered.

New United Europe
 Is EnvisiOned

(Continued from Page 1.) the governments must quit playing nationalist politics and really seek to understand the interdependence of our problems.
 Much is heard of military dis armament. Equally important IS political disarmament. The govern ments must look beyond their own frontiers for the common good"
 Laval will consult Briand the veteran foreign minister of France on his plans for international, par ticularly European, cooperation, 1t was believed. He will do this ever before announcing to parliament any definite ideas he has for inter- national effort derived from the Washington conference, and the Berlin conference which preceded it.
 Briand 1t was who proposed two years ago what was widely termed a Limited States of Europe" He proposed Pan-American co-opera- ton on economic, political and military problems through a body acting independent of the league of nations but in no way weakening that body.
 Beyond the fact that Franco German relations were discussed by President Hoover and himself, Laval would not elaborate on the announced results of their confer ence.
 q shall take no active steps, shall make no announcement until have consulted parliament. Then I shall speak frankly. I shall show the nation that here is an oppor- tunity for bold measures which without too great French sacrifices will permit us to assume a plan of reconciliation with Germany, as I tod MT Hoover and Senator Borah," he added.
 He revealed he had invited both the visit France, although neither expected to be able to accept the invitation, he said.
 The premier's desk was piled high with messages, and he worked hard his first day at sea although fatigued by his round of confer ences in America.
 The daughter, Jose, told this writer that T am going back to America to see more, but when my father is no longer premier. Four days is too little. I would like to get on train and ride until tired, then get off. There is so much to see, and everything is so different from France"

day to six months in the county jail on a contempt of court charge. by United States District Judge James H. Willxerson.
 The judge observed that D'An- drea was "linked with an outlaw organization of which Al Capone was the head" and mentioned that the bodyguard had spent much time at the Lexington hotel, head quarters of the Capone gang.
 On the plea that D'Andrea's mother was critically i'll, the sem tence was made effective two weeks hence. Judge Wilkerson paroIed D'Andrea to the custody of Attorney Michael Ahern for the two weks, on thep rornise he would be delivered to the United States marshal for incarceration in Jail at the expiration of the stay.
 D'Andrea walked out of the courtroom arm-in-arm with Ahern. His two sisters, weeping, followed.
 Judge Wilkerson made the sen- tencing occasion for denunciation of Capone and D'Andrea.
 ''Capone lived in an outlaw camp at the Lexington hotel in what amounted to a state of in- surrection against the United States" Wilkerson said. "At his trial, this man (D'Andrea) sat be- hind him with a gun in his pocket.
 "Capone glowered at the wit .nesses. They faltered. Some of the testimony during the last part of the trial was obviously a shock ing perjury.
 "The court was not unmindful of the coercive means used 70 close the lips of those witnesses. They were summoned to the Capone headquarters in the Lexington be- fore they testified"

 Macdonald defied all political advice and insisted on being vim dicated in his own constituency. instead of accepting a "safe" seat from the conservatives. Secure in the belief that the course he fol- flowed was right and just, he ap- pealed in person to the voters and they upheld him. He had 8 ma- jority of nearly 5000 over his la- bor opponent, William Coxon. The communist candidate, George Lum. ley, boiled only GIT votes and for feited his deposit. Macdonald had 2S,97S and Coxon 23,027.
 A striking feature of the election was the fact that millions of vot. CTS, in endorsing the national gov. ernment, did so in a spirit of pa. triotic se1f-sacrifice, and approved the drastci economies put into force by the government. Police. men, teachers, clerks, post office employees, government employees officials, judges and others ratified cut in their pay which they could ill-afford. The cut in the "dole" fol the unemployed, was, in effect, ap. proved by a popular vote that ap. proximated fin the late count a ra- tio of 9 to 1. The returns were amazing. Trade union headquarters at Transport house was supplied and could scarcely credit the almost com plete destruction of their political machine.
 David Lloyd George, the ageing, astute leader of the once great lib- eral party, was equally repudiated by the voters.

 "The Study Club brings before it's members the best literature writ ten on the subject it is studying. In particular, it emphasizes the Catholic viewpoint. It informs us and newspapers in which are found not only the facts but also the Catholic and non-Catholic at- titudes.

 Labor was left without a leader in the house. Lloyd George was left without a party. It was be- lieved possible the fragments of the labor representation might &C., cept him as their leader-the lead CT of a shadow opposition.
 The result of the election made the imposition of tariff almost certain. although. how high and on what products could not be deter mined. The depreciation of the pound sterling led some financiers to think 8 tariff wall of any height would not be necessary. It was be- iieved further, that a preference to imperial products, or a form of free trade within the empire, would be attempted.
 Financiers did not believe there would be any immediate return to the gold standard and fixing of the pound sterling rate. The election however, which had an immediate encouraging effect on the stock ex- change, was expected to result in substantial stability of he pound.
 Macdonald, proceeding by air. plane to London from his con. stituency in Durham remarked to the press:
 "The nation shows 1t is going tc stand for no humbug in putting our finances in order." MacDon. aids sudden departure from Lon. don was in response to an urgent message requiring his presence there.

Thomas, who was re-elect- ed from his constituency of Derby in a four-cornered contest, said:
 "The message Derby has given to the world Is that it is true to Jimmy and does not believe in folk who act as towards"

The initial hike sponsored by the Waterbury Teachers Association Hiking club will be held Saturday morning with Greystone as the des- tination. The announcement was made this morning by Miss Anas- tasia M. Dillon of Barnard school, president of the organization.

It has been decided by the city not to spend at this time the $17,- 750 alloted to the municipality for dirt road work under the provis- ions of a bill passed by the last legislature. Instead, the money will be saved for 1882 and used for oiling outlying roads. The legis- lature set up a $3,0O0,000 dirt road fund and each city and town in the state was given an equal share of the sum. State Highway Commissioner John A. Mcdonald has agreed that 1t is legal for the money to be used for oil.

Most Of the ring critics attempting to

n JEW YORK, August 31.-That
M heavyweight tangle which
/ Y has been through rain,
wind and storm recently
will try to emerge into the open
this week and settle a couple Of
its major puzzles. This evening
at Ebbetts Field Victoria Campolo,
lanky entry from the Argentine,
will have 1t out with Ernie Schaaf
OF Boston over the 12-round
route, while the fare at the
greensboro Stadium Tuesday
night will feature a 10-rounder
between Charley Retzlaff, one of
the brighter of the recent start
ers, and Joe Sekyra, veteran glove
swinger from Dayton, Ohio.
For the last couple of years there has
been much speculation over Campolo's
proper spot in the heavyweight firma-
ment; the last six months have seen a
similar doubt arise abcut Schaaf, Will
hardly more than six weeks have
elapsed since the fistic followers here
abouts began arguing over the rating
which should be accorded to Retzlaff.
All these questions should be decided
this week, with fair nod from the
weatherman as a NEST necessary ges-
ture, and thus take few kinks out of
the heavyweight tangle.
OF these three fighters, Campolo real
ly has It's most at stake. For him
defeat wiz mean little more than a
rather inglorious trip back to South
America. He has been around too long
without getting any place in particular
