THE COLLISION AT
 SHERMAN HILL
Two Occupants of o n e Car Still at the Water-
 bury Hospital
BOTH OF THIS CITY

Joseph Shobrinskys 40, of Wood bury was admitted to the Water bury hospital to-day and given treatment for fractured nose and lacerations about the face and head. His eyes were also affected by the nature of his injuries suf- fered in an automobile accident last Sunday afternoon. Shortly after the crash Miss Anna Der ench, 24, of 28 Edwards street was taken to the hospital suffering from Fractured ribs, numerous decorations and bruises. She was a passenger in g car driven by Raymond l.. Shobrlnsky of G38 Washington avenue. The latter has been served with a notice to ap- pear in the town court of Wood- bury to face charges of reckless driving.
 When the reports of the acci- dent were first given it was thought that Miss Derench was the only one painfully hurt. The ap- pearance at the hospital to-day of Bolinsky and the condition of his face, nose and eyes indicated that he suffered more severe injuries than first suspected.
 The two cars collided at the foot of Ben Sherman hill late Sunday afternoon and were badly dam. aged.

Three Questions to Be Asked in Every Case as Counsel For Congressman Seeks to Refnte Testimony Given at Gormley Hearings in Naugatnck

that he successfully discredited one of Judge Gormley's witnesses, who made the startling claim that she made out a list of over 14O names of persons for whom some would be on hand to vote. She sub mitted the list and Attorney Larkin has summoned all to find out how many went to vote and found that someone had taken advantage of their privilege of casting a ballot.
 Judge Gormley will be given the opportunity to call more witnesses at a later date to rebut whatever testimony his counsel challenges at Saturdays hearing.
 It will be several weeks yet be- fore the papers are completed and sent to Washington to be reviewed by a committee on elections ap- pointed by Congress.

Governor Sends
 In Repeal Bill
(Continued from Page D

The judiciary committee was prepared to hold hearing tomor- row afternoon on bill providing for the calling of q state conven- tion to ratify repeal of the 18th amendment but the method of con- ducting the convention loomed as q stumbling block.
 A measure offered by House Ma jority Leader Raymond A. Bald win, republican, would have the number of convention members correspond with the present num- Der of legislators.
 A few democratic leaders. 1t was understood. preferred to limit the number of delegates to one from each of the 35 senatorial districts and thus offset the possibility of an overwhelmingly dry representation from riiral towns which might de- feat repeal ratification steps.
 Although the state never ratified the 18th amendment and both par ties, in the last election, stood on wet platforms and elected wet sen ators and congress, there Is still enough dry strength in small com munls ietot threaten the outcome of the ratification convention.
 Members of both parties agreed today the selection of the delegates would not be along political lines. but according to their wet and dry views. Republicans and democrats would Nave to stand together to saw the convention one way or the other.
 TO limit the convention member ship to 35 would assure ratification of rpeeal, 1t was admitted, and it Is to block possible adoption of this program than drys have gathered their forces to pack the judiciary hearing tomorrow.
 The Baldwin bill faced numerous amendments, inasmuch as it was offered merely 10 get the matter before the judiciary.
 Other liquor measures awaiting legislature action are expected to be side-tracked in favor of the con- vention bill. They include meas- ures for establishment of a com mission to control sale and dis tribution, and repeal of the state enforcement act.

MRS ROOSEVELT
 IS INDEPENDENT IN HER VIEWS
"What the NeighbOrs Think is Not Important in These Times" Says New First Lady
BY RUBY A. BLACK United Press Staff Correspondent

V
 New York, February 22 = (UP) - What the neighbors think" is not important in times like these, Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt told southern democratic women living in New York at 8 reception given in her honor last night.
 "We don't any more have to live up to anybody else's standards" Mrs Roosevelt said. because the standards of so many of us are changing all the time.
 If we really want to be independ- ent, we can, without wondering what our neighbors will think We can now make any change we want to make"
 The first lady-elec urged against educational budget cuts that impair teaching. The people who teach in schools are much more import ant than the buildings in which they teach, she said.
 We must make up our minds to see that no children any where are undernourlshed or lacking in warmth or shelter or education" she said. Our children probably will need more education than we need, for we are told that they will have more leisure than we have"
 Mrs Roosevelt taught her usual classes at Todhunter School today, as this school, of which she is part owner. had LincoIn's birthday for a holiday this year instead of Washington's birthday. She plan ned to work in her office this af- ternoon, and go tomorrow by way of Hyde Park to Albany for a tea to be given by Governor and Mrs Herbert IT. Lehman.

LARKIN OPENS G0SS DEFENSE SATURDAY
WASHINGTON WOULD NOT FIND OLD
 WHITE HOUSE

Philadelphia, Feb 22.-(UP) Were George Washington to revisit the scene of his presl- dency, he would wander all over the city and never find the original "Whlte House..
 A centuFy-old fOur-stOry building on Market street Oc- cupies the site where 1t once stood. Washington probably would not be interested in the back-date magazines exhibited fin one window, the machine made garments fin another, or the countless toys in still an- other.
 However, he would doubtless be interested fin q tablet, if he could find 1t, which is stuck high up on the wall between second-story windows and part Iy concealed by,.a fire escape, which bears the legend:
 'Thls building and those ad- joining on the east and west stand on the site of the house which was occupied by Washington as tho presidential mansion from November 27, 179O, to March 1, 1707. This tablet is erected by the Penn- sylvania Society of Sons of the Revolution. A. D. 1897."
