The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1933-11-15

Staunch old-tim democrats,
stumping st Louis and the vicin-
ity during last weeks electoral
campaign, have a pessimistic
story. The people, they say, are
one hundred per cent for Roose-
welt. But they can't quite swallow
these new fanglerd notions. And
they blame it not on Roosevelt,
but his professors. The president
still wears a halo. They have
They believe in him.
CHANGE
Workmen sitting around fiow-
ing beer barrels after political
harangues, grouse about the
MIRA. Wages have gone up, they
admit, but prices more so.
What they really object to,
when you pin them down, Is
change. 1t is a new system, and
they liked the old. They had ex-
pected to see the old system
adorned with all the trimmings
of Calvin Coolidge's most lus-
cious days come looming back
on the wings of the Blue Eagle.
Now they are disappointed, dis
illusioned, in some cases, sore.
And this is the general psy-
chology of others who are pluck
ing at the Blue Eagles tail
feathers.
Despite all this, st Louis, just
week ago, experienced its
biggest Saturday in retail sales
since 1929. Despite all this. you

st. Louis, Mo.-The further

Out here in this reasonably
sedate city of good beer, shoes,
wholesale houses and a few re-

quite a goodly number of people
have been busy plucking tail
feat srs from General Johnson's

that the old bird flies little
lop-sided at times-but 1t is still
flying.
st Louis is a low-priced COM
munity serving as a distributing
center for the great southwest.
and naturally any price, boost is
bad business. The NRA is exact
ly that.
Reports coming I'm from
smaller towns are worse. One
salesman of big shoe plant re-
ports that in Iowa IL was once
bad business to display the Blue

WIFE LURES HER u.
RIVAL TO DEATH
Got Her Into Bedroom of
Husband and Then
Killed Her

Dallas, Tex, Nov 15-UP)-A
wife lured the rival for her hus-
bands love to his bedroom here to-
day and then shot her dead, when
they admitted intimacies.
The wife was Mrs L. H. Boone.
Her husband Is L. H. Boone,
wholesale hardware buyer. The
slain woman was Mrs Pearl Hall,
80.
In a statement to police Mrs
Boone said she fired with a As
caliber automatic pistol when Mrs
Hall advanced on her, her hand
inside her coat. She said the shot
was fired in self-defense.
Mrs Boone told police she had
been distracted by anonymous tele-
phone calls informing her of pur-
ported clandestine meetings be-
tween her husband and Mrs Hall.
Accompanied by friend, she
drove to Mrs Halls rooms before
dawn and on a ruse got her rival
to return to the Boone apartment.
Mrs Boone and her friend, Mrs
Reitze1 Morrison, told police that
Mrs Hall admitted during the ride
that she had been keeping COM
pany with the hardware buyer for
six months.
Boone was asleep when the
three women marched into his
room. He was awakened. Mrs Hall
said, "Hello, Dan"
-''I want this woman to tell you
the same thing she has been tell
ing u.s." Mrs Boone told her
startled hunsb band.
Mrs Boone sal dshe, picked up
the revolver when she entered the
apartment. She said she shot after
warning Mrs Hall not to move to-
ward her.

New York, Nov 15-(UP)-Is-
idor J. Kresel credited with pos
sessing one of the "best legal minds
in America" was found guilty to-
day of willfully misapplying the
funds of the defunct bank of Unit
ed States.
Tiny of stature and frail of ap-
rearance, Kresel took the jury YER
dict without flinching. He will be
sentenced Monday.
The maximum penalty is seven
years. The verdict was a dramatic
climax in one of the most spec
tacular legal careers in recent New
York history.
Kresel was not the only noted
figure involved in the monumental
failure of the Bank of United
States in which thousands of de-
positors lost savings totalling in the
millions.

WATERBURY HAS
RECEIVED FULL
SHAREOF RELIEF
But 1t Is Small in Conn
parisOn to Other Cities
in State

Waterbury's treasury was en-
riched to the extent Of $22,913.32
today when q check for that
amount was received by Controller
Daniel J. Leary from the federal
emergency commission. The sum
represents the governments share
in aiding cities and towns through
out the country to administer relief
to those suffering from lack of
work during the depression.
Controller Leary stated that he

futile. Waterbury's check from
the federal emergency relief COM
mission Is quite small in COMPARE
son to the amounts received by
other cities in Connecticut.
New Ravens check, for example,
is $52.393. This is due to the fact
that the money expended for chart
ty work by the Mutual Aid is not
credited to the city. The action
on the part of Mayor Hayes and
others in divorcing the charity
work from politics has resulted in
Waterbury being penalized. New
Haven administers it's charity
work through the usual public
welfare department and, therefore,
is recognized for, a. larger federal
contribution as a, whole.

TAGGED DRIVERS
MUST SETTLE UP
OR BE ARRESTED
Judge Mascolo Issued
Warning in the Shape
of Arrest Warrants

In an apparent determined effort
to compel autoists 10 respect an
official summons to appear in court
the police today with the sanction
of Judge Edward Mascolo resorted
to drastic means to accomplish
their purpose.
A warrant was issued for the
arrest of Herman Lebosky. 26, of
"A Elliott street, New Haven. He
was tagged" yesterday for violat-
ing the marking ordinances, but
failed to appear in court. Judge
Masolo ordered him placed under
arrest and held under more i'm
pressive bonds to insure his pres
ence tomorrow morning.
More drastic action was taken
in the case of Peter White, 26,
of IA Division street, New Rochel-
lie, N. Y. He appeared in court
when served with second notice.
White, according to the police. has
been visiting at 81 Field street and
during his sojourn has failed to
heed the parking restrictions.
When he was assessed 50 today he
declined to pay.
Whites refusal to pay prompted
Captain Richard Leroy to order his
car seized and held as security.
Notwithstanding the young mans
objections his automobile was
driven into the police garage and
held as security until White pays
the So.
Several local parkers either paid
their 50 at the desk yesterday or
settled before court opened this
morning. On the days list to be
notified, however, were several
prominent names, including the
wife of a well-known attorney. The
latter was apparently the one tag
ged," but as the car Is registered
in the wife's name, she will be
