MIDNIGHT IS LIMIT
ON GOLD H0ARDERS
Treasury to Consider Valid
DeIays-GeneraI Respite
Not Planned.

With midnight tonight as the dead
the Treasury Department announced it
would consider requests for extensions
of time in case persons considered cir
cumstances beyond their control would
prevent their turning over gold in time
An official of the department ex-
planned meanwhile, that no relaxation
was intended Of regulations issued
under President Roosevelt's executive
order of August % requiring all per-
sons holding more than $10O in gold
certificates, coin or bullion to report to
the Government
However, if a gold hoarder has valid
reasons for postponing the filing Of his
return and no attempted evasion of the
Presidents order is involved. his case
will be given every consideration.
A principal purpose of the order is to
facilitate prosecutions of gold hoarders
who have stubbornly refused to yield to
the Governments requests that they
turn their holdings over to the Federal
Reserve Banks.
Using methods of persuasion, agents
of the Justice Department nave sue
ceeded in reducing the number of
known hoarders from 5000 to 342 and
the amount of gold turned in has ag-
gregated more than $39. 900 600.
Attorney General Cummings is an
xious to continue this method, but has
said he will not hesitate to employ
more forceful measures.
After the return has been filed the
gold hoarder is given a period of two
weeks in which to divest himself of his
holdings. Failure to comply is to be
followed by criminal proceedings The
penalty is $4,000 fine, 10 years in jail
or both.
Cummings is weighing the question of
gold hoarders. He is reluctant to do So
but after every opportunity has been
given them to comply with the law.
indications are the list will be given

Vets And Drys Had One Warm Session
 Over Repeal Law
With the Spelacy and Bergin Affray Added in the Assembly at Hartford Is Having Most Exciting Time

Hartford, Conn, Feb 24-(UP)-- The method of conducting Connec- ticut's convention for ratification of repeal of the 18th Amendment re- mained in doubt today.
 A legislative judiciary committee heard suggestions from wet and dry forces late yesterday. Vets fa- vored selection of delegates from the state at large. Dry were ada mant in their demand for election on the basis of legislature proce- dure.
 Dry forces crowded the commit tee room hours before the hearing began. Many brought their lunches and settled down in their seats in mid-morning, although the hearing did not begin until 2:30 o'clock. Most of them wore white ribbons on which was inscribed "Observ- ance, not repeal" Repealists found difficulty locating seats when the debate was started.
 Lucius k. Robinson, ST, Hart ford, representing anti-prohibition groups, defended election of dele. gates at large, nominated by pett- ton. He branded delegates elected by districts rubber stamps" re- stricted to a yes or no vote.
 Representation on basis of towns was championed by the Rev Oscar Maurer, New Haven, spokesman for the Council of Twelve, repre- senting prohibition groups and church organizations, who assert ed tho convention, not the people, should have final say.
 Even though the 20 largest towns gave 0 wet majority of 10000 and the rest of the state Q dry majority of 2,000, the drys should be recog- nized, he said, because that was Connecticut procedure.
 The Rev Fletcher Parker de- clared public opinion was steadily growing in favor of the dry cause and predicted five or ten years from now the man who votes for repeal will be a mighty sorry man politically"
 House Chairman Raymond A. Baldwin, Stratford, sponsor of the convention bill, took this occasion to announce himself as a wet.
 Hiram Bingham found out. didn't he?" 8 voice from the rear of the chamber shouted.
 Booes and jeers greeted asser- tions of vets that repeal was in- evitable and necessary for the economic recovery of the country.

 Lehman Nelson, 3s, a flying in- structor, was dead when taken from the wreckage. Erin Mccall. 21. student flyer, died shortly after the crash. Authorities believed Mccall shot his instructor while the mahcine was in air, and then shot himself.

 Nelson, as usual, occupied the front cockpit of the plane, which Hdu COnLLOAos DaAS~SNS hind him sat Mccall.
 Swiftly gaining altitude, the plane headed out over the open country. A little later it passed above the home of George Whitsel. farmer.

 The plane flew on, steadily losing altitude. Three miles away 1t gwooped low over another farm house. Occupants heard a scream, they said, and a moment later the ship swept to landing in a field. Nosing over almost as the wheels touched, the plane was wrecked. witnesses saw Mccall, apparently unhurt. leap from the rear cock pit. run for some fifty. yards and then fall dead. Examination dis closed a bullet through his head. A pistol was found beside the dead youth.

as the nucleus of committee which will convene Tuesday night to discuss the jobless problem of Middletown thoroughly with the Charity Committee and Mayor Bielefield and work out a solution to a problem which the mayor told them yesterday, was fast bringing Middletown to a condition in which several other cities of the state have found themselves, al- most bankrupt.
 The first step. in making plans for more economically aiding un- employed by work relief was taken at yesterdays meeting. Mayor Bielefield prefaced his remarks by saying that "An unfortunate situa- ton" which has arisen in Middle town recently Is that many of the jobless have so adapted themselves to their present condition that some of them will not accept out side jobs, fearful that acceptance of these jobs at small wages will mean that they will be dropped from the city's list of needy cases and thus will lose the assistance given them by the city.

Gabriel had a part in q Marshfield
Wis, brewery raid Saturday he prob

OF shotgun fire and such a weapon
was not used at Marshfield, where
policeman Fred Bell, former wrest-
Ter, was slain.
