President of the Norwich University to Run for
 Congressman

Montpelier, Vt. Dec 20-(UP)- Charles Albert Plumley, 58, presi- dent of Norwich University since 1920. has won the republican nom- ination for Vermont's only con- gresisonal seat. Complete returns from yesterdays special state pri- mary gave him a plurality of 19S6 over state representative Jeremiah Evarts of Windsor, grandson of one-time U. $. secretary of state and his nearest opponent in a i've cornered contest.
 Plumley boiled 14,865 votes; Evarts. 13,029; States Attorney Frederick w. Wakefield Jr, of Chittenden county, 1704; state rep fesentative Loren Pierce of Wood- stock. 1048: and Mrs Blanche B. Bryant of Springfield, member of the state board of education, S61.
 In the special election of Jan uary 16, Plumley will be opposed by Robert Ready. St Albans lawyer who won the democratic nomina- ton without a fight. Since Vermont never has elected democratic congressman, Plumley's election was almost a certainty. He Is 2 former speaker of the state house of representatives and once was state tax commissioner.
 Yesterdays special primary was necessitated by the death several weeks ago of U. s. Senator Porter H. Dale, republican. |

Six Decisions Made
 In Superior Court
Hamilton Hardware Appraisers Allowed $25O Apiece
 Remaining Barlow Bros Assets to Be Sold

cis P. Guilfoile, A. J. Williams
 of Providence, R. l., and Eugene
 Dietler of New Haven.
 Mir Dietler asked $750 and the
 other two, $500 apiece. Judge Jennings recalls that when he named appraisers he urged them te make a reasonable appraisal or else they would not be paid. He says that Williams and Dietler en- tirely disregarded the caution and made complete appraisal in- curing considerable expense. He said the amounts sought were be- yond all reason and cannot be allowed.
 1 In another decision, he orders the remaining assets in the Barlow Bros receivership to be sold, with the exception of the claim against Chief Two Moon Meridas upon which other litigation is pending. He denies the application that sought an increase in salaries for the Waterbury Tack Co. receiver ship officials. He said he grant | ed the application putting the company into receivership, re- luctantly. He adds, that the of ficials for whom the salary in- crease was sought, are stockhold- CTS.
 He denies the application asking for a remittance of the court, costs in the case of Rene Levesque. Judge Jennings points out that the accused was given a suspended sen tence and that the probation period for paying the court costs is a long one. He adds that at the end of the probation period if Pro- bation Officer William M. Harris wants to bring the matter to the courts attention, further action will be taken. Levesque was fined on a charge of automobile homi- eide.
 In another memorandum, Judge Jennings urges Attorney Clayton l.. Klein to make some effort to reach contract suit of the International News Co, Inc, against the Nauga- tuck News. The decision states that the plaintiff has been press- ing for trial all fall without success and that MT Klein who ap- pears for the defendant, was un- able to try tho case because of illness. Judge Jennings thought it best to place his opinion on the record for the benefit of the next judge before whom tho case is brought. Judge Jennings says the plaintiff is entitled to an early trial

MORE FEDERAL FUNDS FOR CITY
The FRA Money Way Be Use at Discretion of :,
 the Officials

The city of Waterbury will re- ceive $12,000 more from the fed- eral relief administration for rec lief expenditures during the year 1883. Approximately $38,000 has been received for sums spent by the city during the first three quar- ters of the year.
 Contrary to previous reports, money received from the FRA can be used for any. purpose whatso- ever. It is not limited to the pur- chase materials and equipment for CWA prospects,, since the two are entirely separate. Some of the grant may, however, be used for such purpose.
 Other reports that the CWA board at Hartford had allowed this city special grant to purchase material and equipment are with out foundation. The CWA devotes almost every penny of its funds to the payment of wages for workers who are placed on local projects. No exception has been made, or will be made for Waterbury.
 The storm sewers planned for Waterbury will be constructed, but the money VIII De luTLISueu Uy tIe city for whatever equipment is necessary. The street and water departments will also supply mate rial for all other city projects, in- cluding the building of the Bucks Hill and Crockett Hill water mains.
 According to William M. Harris, director of the Mutual Aid, the city is penalized because of the efficiency of it's relief organization. Because local relief is carried on through contributions and as a separate organization, the city al- lowance is considerably smaller than those given other places where the municipal government alone handles the welfare cases. Mutual Aid expenditures are ig- nored by the FRA.

Grand Jury Report Gives Amazing Story of
 Utilities Company

Crown Point, Ind Dec 20-(UP) Charges of criminaf mismanage- ment of the $100,000,000 Northern Indiana Public service company were contained today in a grand jury report to Judge William J. Murray.
 Judge Murray ordered suppressed the names of officials against whom the grand jury returned indict- ments. Samuel Insull. Jr.. is vice. chairman of the corporation and Morse Lell-Plain is president.
 The grand jury report revealed an amazing story of how books of the utilities company were juggled
 or rate-making purposes. huge ex- pense accounts for officials and footing of the treasury for the ben- eft of Insull holding companies.
 The grand jury suggested a fed- eral and state investigation into operations of the company ito sec that the rights of the consumers are cared for" The company. the report stated, could serve the prblic efficiently at rates 50 per cent be- low those now charged.
 In the Insull Utility Empire set- up the Northern Indiana Public Service was controlled by Midland Utilities, holding company with offices nominally in Indianapolis but actually controlled from the Chicago offices of Samuel Insull. ST.
 Through interlocking director ates the management of the op- erating unit and the holding com panies were able to transfer assets at will and according to the grand jury, always to the detriment of the supporting company at the bottom, which produced and sold electricity while the holding com panies took the cream of the profits.
 The report revealed .$10,000,- 900 bookkeeping "error" purposely made to deceive the Indian Public Service commission and justify high rates for service, allegedly made in 1929. Another charge was that properties, in many instances worthless, were transferred to the Northern Indian company through a system of interlocking directories for the purpose of milking the Northern Indiana Public Service of its surplus earnings"

New Orleans, Dec 20-(UP)- Senator Huey P. Long today faced a political crisis after the old re- gular city organization of New Orleans, termed the "Tammany Hall of the South," last night re- fused to endorse his candidate for district attorney in the city elec- ton next month.
 The old regulars, controlling the vote in New Orleans which holds about one-third the entire Louisi- ana vote, has been one of the most powerful affiliated groups in the long machine.
 Permanent loss of this support would split the powerful political has dominated Louisianan politics.
 Senator Long had asked that State Senator Charles A. Byrne be endorsed by the old regulars for district attorney instead of the present incumbent Eugene Stanley. a persistent political foe of the Long machine.
 The request came as a comprom- ise after the city organization had refused to accept several other candidates advanced by Long.
