Given Six Months
 For Non-Support
Christopher Yoos Must Also Work Out Costs of Case Set at 800

residing at 1899 Jerome avenue, New York city.
 Through information obtained here Yoos was picked up there and held for the Waterbury police. It was necessary for Lieutenant Will liam Pollard to visit Hartford and Albany to obtain the signatures of Governors Wilbur l.. Cross and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Several technicalities developed before the New York police surrendered the defendant to the lieutenant. The costs of extradition consequently will be added to Yoos' jail term Notwithstanding his denial and claims that he had been sending money to his wife, Judge John F. McGfath found him guilty and gave him six months. The cost of ex- tradition is expected to reach $90, which Yoos must pay or work out on Q $1 day allowance.
 Sentence was suspended in the case of Frederick Church of 1108 East Main street, charged with reckless driving and operating without a license. A continuance was granted in the case of Paul Varlese, 25, of 9 Chatfield avenuk, charged with breach of the peace. He was arrested on the complaint of his wife, who alleges that he has been calling at her place of employment and annoying her by his persistent demands for money.
 Stanley Slogeris, 50, of 36 South Leonard street was given a sus- pended jail sentence of Is days. He had an argument with neighbor and became abusive. He was placed on probation for one year without q warning that the feud must stop or he will be sent to jail.
 The case of Philip Belford, SC, of sharon was continued until September 2nd. He is charged with operating motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor.

A six months jail sentence to which will be added costs of ex- tradition was imposed to-day upon Christopher Yoos, 36, a former resident of Waterbury. who was brought back here last evening from New York city to face the ci; rge of non-support. Evidence pre- rented against the accused by his wife was to the effect that he has failed for a period of two years to contribute to her support and for their two children. It was also intimated that when he learned that the police were seeking him, Yoas left the state and has been

BRITISH GET
 FOREIGN PLANTS

London-(UP)-Foreign manu- featuring plants are springing up all over Great Britain in an effort to avoid the heavy duties imposed by the empire on foreign imports.
 Since January l, 160 foreign firms have taken factory sites and ar- ranged to manufacture here, ac- cording to the London chamber of commerce.
 Many of these factories have been, or are being set up by Ger man firms, which are among the hardest hit by the duties. Included in the articles formerly imported from Germany now to be manufac- tured here are leather goods in Hackney, east London; cutlery at Hanwell, coal tar products in Hull Czecho- o-slovakian firms are going to

Santa Rosa, Cal -(UP)- The W>ppo bible is complete.
 This treatise on the folklore, customs and peculiarities of the Wappo Indians, which is the scien- tific name, at leasty for the abor- igines of this region, has been con- piled by Harold Driver and Ken McCorkle, youth full archaeologists from the University of California.
 They have been living with the red men on their reservation near here, learning their language, nak- ing friends with babies and pump ing information from the old bucks of the tribe. Many unusual bits of
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-08-30

information have been gleaned, in- cluding the ancient ritual of "cou- vade".
 "Couvade," Driver and McCork- le explained, is the custom of In- dian men, whose wives are on the verge of childbirth, to go to bed during the last four days their squaws are confined to their tepees, During this period the husbands are required. to lie quietly be- side their wives and speak only in low tones.
 There are Indians in this district who still remember the practice of "couvade" by their fathers.
 The complete information ob- tained by the archaeo1ogists will be printed next year in the University of California publication on Amer ican Archaeology and Ethnology.
 Air passenger traffic between London and Paris is duoble what if was last year.

tunately many of US are too busy and
too lazy to take any part in the cere-
monies. Memorial Day for such Is Just
another holiday.
This is to be deplored, for it is a shirk-
ing of duty that plays its part in the
present undesirable conditions existing
in the United States. Indifference to
patriotism, Indifference to civic duty and
indifference to the duties and privileges
of citizenship are kindred evils which
may be blamed for the lawlessness that
has made the United States horrible
example" among the nations of the
world.
Until the American people are ready
to accept sacrifices as the veterans did;
until they reach the point where the per-
formance of a duty means more to them
than the enjoyment of holiday, our
present undesirable conditions may be
expected to continue.
Memorial Day and its attendant GER
emonies give US the chance to practice
bit of sacrifice. 1t is not a sacrifice that
will injure us; merely the foregoing OF
bit of pleasure tc pay tribute to the
heroes of the nation.
Forgetting our own pleasures to pay
such homage will not cause an Immediate
Improvement in our national condition,
but it will be one step in the direction
that Americans must take If they are to
overcome the forces which have proved
far worse enemy to the United States
than the British in l776 or the Germans
in 1917.

MEMORIAL DAY

THE recent reunion of the G. A. R. held
1 in San Diego, brought forcibly to the
people Of Southern California the heavy
inroads which death has made on the
survivors of the Civil war.
Three or four decades ago, thousands
Of veterans would march at a reunion
of this kind. This year there were less
than 200. All of them are considerably
beyond the proverbially three score and
ten, bent with the ravages of time, but
with spirit undimmed
In a few years there will be no vet
erans of the Civil war to appear at any
sort of gathering.
Years ago these veterans started the
beautiful custom of remembering their
dead comrades once year, and Mem
orial Day has long been recognized as
one of the most sacred days in the AM
erican calendar.
The decreasing ranks Of the Union
veterans has made it impossible for them
to take the leading part in Memorial
Day for some years past. Their places
have been taken by the United Spanish
War Veterans and veterans OF the Norld
war.
Monday these veterans and their aux
iliaries. will carry on the work OF the u.
A. R. The ceremonies which have maze
Memorial Day outstanding, will be con-
Quoted as they have been and as they
should be as long as this nation lasts.

should be so to every American. Un1or-

SALESMAN FOR
CHESTERFIELDS
LAUDS PAPERS

Not only does the Liggett and
Myers company, makers OF Chester
field cigarettes, preach the gospel
of newspaper advertising to obtain
the best results, but the same be-
lief is held by B. J. Zimmerman,
salesman for the company, who has
been making" Imperial Valley ter
ritory for several years.
Newspaper advertising is the
most helpful aid the salesman has"
he states, ''and m. experiences have
proved time and again that news
paper readers note and are influ-
enced by newspaper advertising"
A recent visit to the company's
plant at Richmond, Va, is described
as follows, by John Reed, promi-
nent New York newspaperman:
You hear OF millions of cigar
cites, but until you actually see
them by the tens of thousands roll
ing out of intricate machinery, all
packaged and ready for the retail
counter, such incomprehensible fig
ures mean nothing at all.
"I watched tobacco from Ken
tuck, North and South Carolina,
Georgia, Virginia, Maryland and
| Turkey being blended and cross
blended to make Chesterfields. We
start with tobacco that comes into
! the plant in hogsheads weighing
about 1000 pounds, from the domes-
! tic districts, in square wrapped
packages or bales from Turkey.
workers place the Burley and
Virginia, and the different kinds
of Turkish tobaccos which go to
make the blend, on belts, which
carry them into steel drums. Here
steam dampens the tobacco so that
it may be cut, without breaking, in
| the machines.
! Moisture Removed
From the cutters, the tobacco
drops onto moving belts, which car
, ry it to another set of much larger
cylinders, where excess moisture is
removed b. means of steam heat.
After this it is left to stand in
movable bins for two days to allow
