The Y. M. c. A. is to reopen it's Brooklyn and North End branches about October, 1st with it's regular program for the youth of these communities. These two buildings have been used in CO., operation with the Mutual Aid and St Johns church as homes for homeless men during the past five months. It was the desire of the Mutual Aid and Dr Lewis that the Y. M. c. A. continue to use these branches as sleeping quar- ters, and the same was given long consideration.
 After a meeting of industrial leaders at the Home club last Friday with the Y. M. c. A. exc cutive committee, it was voted as follows: While the necessity for providing shelter for the homeless comes first, it is important that the Waterbury Y. M. C., A. CO., operate in the policy enunciated again, on September IA by Prest- dent Hoover's committee headed by Newton D. Baker, that the work of the character-building agencies should be maintained this winter at their full strength and thus help protect and strengthen the character of the increasingly large numbers of unemployed youth" .
 The above resolution was passed by the Y. M. c. A. board last night. The Brooklyn branch will open October 1st and the North End branch will open just as soon as the Mutual Aid can find suit able place to house the men living in the two branches.

Mother Pleads For
 Mooney's Release
Moore, Colored Communist Also Speaks at Red Rally Urges White and Black Laborers 10 Unite Against Common Foe

Moore charged that Mooney had
 been framed" by capitalists and
 is entirely innocent of the 1916
 bombing. He said that the Scotts-
 boro case is the same kind of
 capitalistic persecution. The nine
 negroes, he explained, looking for
 work, boarded a freight train on which were white hoboes with two
 white girls and a bunch of negro
 hoboes. The whites tried to throw
 the colored men off the train, he
 said, and then got off at the next
 station and accused the negroes Of attacking them. The negroes were arrested and charged with assault
 on the girls and were subsequently, sentenced to the electric chair. Only efforts of the International
 Labor Defense has kept them from the chair so far, he charged. The nine negroes pleaded guilty
 to the charges against them. Moore said, upon the advice of their law yer, who was afraid of the lynch
 law. Therefore, he said, the whites and negroes must unite to free ! Mooney and the Scottsboro boys.

DEPT OF HEALTH
 ISSUES WARNING
Calls Attention to Typhoid Season Which Is Now
 at Hand
PREVENTION MEASURES

The typhoid season is on-at least statistical tables show that in Connecticut the greatest incidence of the disease occurs in September and October, the state department of health warned in it's weekly bull letin to-day.
 Incidence tables by months since 1918 reveal that more cases were reported in September alone in tire year in 1928, 1929 or 1851. 1918 and in 1920 than for the enS With rare exception, the incidence of typhoid fever reaches it's height in this state is August, September or October.
 The bulletin says: While ty- phoid fever is much less prevalent than formerly, it is still worth while to bear in mind the necessity for precautionary measures. It is important to adopt procedures for preventing the spread of infection from any person who is even slightly ill. In Connecticut town where there has been little or no typhoid fever in recent years, one member of family recently con- tracted the disease and before a diagnosis could be made three oth- CT members of the family had be- come infected. This experiences serves to illustrate the importance of precautionary measures to pre- vent contact infection.
 Among other worth while pre- cautionary measures may be men, toned attention to general clean Illness of surroundings, the proper disposal of sewage and safeguard ing of water supplies, the use of | milk and food handled by persons | who are known to be healthy, the
 pasteuriaztion of milk to destroy disease germs present and the boil | ing of water from supply not | known to be safe.
 If to these general measures for preventing the spread of typhoid | infection be added the decline in number of chronic carriers due to | the fewer cases now than formerly, 1t is expected that the typhoid haz- ard will continue on the downward trend it has assumed during recent | years"

October First Tentative Date for Resumption of Actiy- ites = Decision Follows Plea of Hoover and
 Baker That Youth of Nation Be Saved

Herbert s. Smith, yesterday, called attention to the fact that between 200, 900 and 300, 900 young men 16 to 20 years of age are wandering over the country by hitch hiking and bumming on freight trains, according to the Children's bureau of the U. S. department of labor. The problem of these wandering hordes of youth became so acute that the railroads were obliged to seek government help. The Y. M. c. A. is one of the agencies ap- pealed to by the U. S. government to help. meet this problem. The Y. M. c. A. is asked to help stem this tide of wanderers at its source and to care for those who are on the road"
 A plea for youth was made on Sept 18th by President Hoover, Newton D. Baker, chairman of the president relief committee and Walter S. Clifford. former chair man in which they all emphasized the dangers due to the increasing restlessness of youth. MT Baker says: "The sign boy wanted is not seen anywhere. Many boys are declining to add to the family burden and are taking to the open road. so that from 300,000 to 100000 boys have left home to live by the wayside.
 This emphasizes the restlessness of youth and each community de- serves to preserve and intensity it's welfare and character building work which are more critically needed now than at any other time, in order that there will be deep injury done to our national youth by this tragic emergency. /
 In addition to President Wilcox, who presided, the following direc- tors were present last night: Chase Kimball, Herman Rooster, Harry c. Post, Treasurer c. Dana Tyack, Thomas P. Kellogg, Frank H. Bailey, Edward B. Tracy, Clark S. Judd. Theobald B. Conway, F. Dut- ton Noble, Herbert S. Smith.
