SLIPPERS WERE
 AROUSED JUST AT RIGHT TIME
Dynamite Had Been Plant- ed in Apartment House and Two Rescuers Awakened 20 People

McKeesport, Pa, April 12-(UP) Twenty persons were reused from their beds early to-day just in time to escape a dynamite blast that destroyed the apartment building in which they lived. Gas oline dripping from an empty apartment aroused suspicious of two residents of the building re- turning home late. They investi- gated and found charge of dyna- mite planted in the basement.
 A fuse attached to the explosive was burning. George Hall. 6S, of Pittsburgh, a visitor in the home of Raymond Ritter, tried to ex- tinguish the fuse. Failing. he at- tempted to carry the dynamite from the basement. The explosive was secured to the floor. Hall and Ritter then began rousing the three families who lived in the building. They succeeded in awak- enfng all before the explosion. Police could offer no theories for the bombing as they began inyes-, tigation.

Lindbergh Has Not Lost Faith In Work
 Of Doctor Condon
New "Jafsie" Negotiations Have Been Opened With Alleged Kidna p CT s Secret Trips of Condon Are Mysterious and Have Newspapermen Guessing

Hopewell, N. J., April 12.-(UP) New "Jafsie" negotiations for the return of the Kidnapped son of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh were indicated today following two mys- terious trips by pr John F. Con- don who paid $50,000 ransom money to purported kidnapers in the double cross deal.
 The 70-year old F'ordham uni versity lecturer, whose "Jafsie' messages in New York newspapers are credited with establishing con- tact with the kidnapers, retains the confidence of Colonel Lind- bergh. This fact lent weight to -Condon's renewed activity.
 Colonel Lindbergh has heard nothing further from the kidnap- ers' the last bulletin by the New Jersey state police stated. If any contact is made" the bulletin con. tinued, that can be revealed, i'm. mediate notice of same will be filed through Trenton. Nothing of i'm. Fportance has developed" Z.
 Condon's secret errands were considered significant because or his first trip from his Bronx home he carried two suitcases. Either one of these, 1t was pointed out, would afford ample room for $50,- 900 in currency of $20. $10 and $5 denominations, the same as made up the ransom money.
 When Condon returned after be- ing absent about an hour and a half he did not have the suitcases. Shortly after his return he depart ed on a second mission, as mysteri- ous as the first.

TRICK MARE IS SHOT AFTER SHE
 BROKE HER NECK
Night After Night Since 1927 Flying Arrow Has Been Feature-22 Foot Leap Finished Her

Boston, April 12-(UP)--Almost nightly since 1927. Flying Arrow,a a bay and white mare, had thrilled Rodeo audiences as. a trick horse.
 Lately she had been trained for new stunt--a 22-foot leap over an automobile-and her owner, Clyde Miller of Waterloo, h., de- cided she should try this in public for the first time last night.
 Some 7,00O, spectators in Boston Arena saw Cowgirl Mary Ander- son mount Flying Arrow. They saw her, riding Roman style. drive the horse down the arena toward the m ngly insurmountable hurdle. They saw Flying Arrow soar off the ground. stumble, and dive onto the tanbark, her neck snapping against the side of the stadium. The rider was tossed but escaped with screatches.
 Suddenly onto the arena turf raced Arch iba ala Macdonald, watching the show in the interests of the Animal Rescue league. He went directly to the side--of the fallen horse and shot and killed 1t.
 Cowboys and cowgirls milled a. round Macdonald. loudly berating him for killing the horse pre- maturely." They argued that sometimes when a horse appeared to have a broken neck, 1t was no more than q kink which soon would correct itself.
 An autopsy revealed, however, that Flying Arrow, reportedly in- sured for almost its full value of $l5,000, had broken its neck.

An Array of Figures Is Presented in Their Re- port That Might Puzzle Any Waterbury Tax payer, But After One Glance Over Report of the Auditors, the City Financial Page Is Made Clear
AUDITORS WERE
 WELL TREATED

Waterbury spent s133,971.47 for general relief work over and above the authorized appropriations. the audit of the 1881 city's municipal books by Miller. Franklin and Basset, Inc, of. New York, furn- ished Mayor Frank Hayes today, disclosed. Furthermore, the audit showed cash deficit of $79S.11s.- IS, including the welfare work over expenditures. offset by col- lections in back taxes and assess ments of s691,151.S0. making a net overdraft of approximately s107,000. X.
 The auditors report, made pub-s lie today, when analysed, showed the picture of Waterbury's finances. to be the best in many years. While the actual cash deficit is S79s,119.13 under the old charter provisions and with $691. .151.S0 paid into the surplus resource sink ! ing fund from back taxes for rec. tirement of past obligations, tfo city's actual over expenditure has been about $107,000, an amount much less than actually depicted, past days by Mayor Hayes and Controller Daniel J. Leary. N Under the old charter, while there might be a big overdfaft on the appropriations and money poured in on back taxes, the lat- ter cash could not have been used. It had to go into the surplus re- source sinking fund. Therefore. while the city operated on current revenue for the past year 1t was helpless as far as using the reve- nue from previous years was con- cerned. Therefore, cash deficits, from bookkeeping standpoint have been shown every year.
