 In The City To-day
Greatest Show on Earth Will Be Here on Thursday, June l5-No. Advertising Car Is Here With Its Army of Bill Posters-Hmdreds of New Fea- lures This Year

Vying with the resplendent im- pressiveness of The Dunbar is the most unusual and weird importation that even The Greatest Show on Earth ever brought out of the orient--the Royal Padaung Giraffe neck women from Burma. These strange Oriental women, with their incredibly long necks encircled with brass and copper rings, car- rying sixty pounds of copper orna- ments on their arms and legs, are unbelievably aloof from all man. kind. They are like no other racial group ins all the teeming east. The rings, soldered upon their necks, are constantly superimposed from infancy until maturity, until these sloe-eyed Oriental beauties resem- ble nothing so much as the giraffe Never was so sensational 0 feature exhibited in the main performance of the Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey combined circus.
 The golden jubilee fve-ring, four stage program features displays in units of fifty, with the stars of all lands competing in the air, rings and hippodrome track and on the stages. There are more than 800 performers. The circus bears on It's four long trains of 100 doublo- length steel railroad cars over 1900 people, 50 elephants, 1909 men, agerie animals and 700 horses.
 The great Con Colleano, tumbl- ing, forward d-somersauiting tight wire star, has been recalled from European triumphs to join the big show constellation of stars, as has the famous Alfredo Codona, worlds only triple mid-air somersaulter to a sensational catch.

There are 100 of the worlds most famous clowns in the golden jubilee gala performances.

The Greatest Show on Earth, Ringing Bros sand Barnum & Bailey combined circus-this sea- son celebrating the golden jubilee of the Ringling Brothers, who fifty years ago began their triumphal march to world circus supremacy -is definitely scheduled to exhibit in Waterbury Thursday, June 15.
 The No. 1 advertising car of the big show arrived today and thirty graphers are heralding the event throughout this territory.
 Outstanding among the almost countless new features of the gold en jubilee gala performances is the most magnificent opening spectacle ever produced by this colossus among amusement enterprises It Is an authentic and dazzling re- production of Tho Dunbar, the world famous coronation cere- monial at Delhi, India. The Ring ling Bros and Barnum & Bailey pageantry, opulent and staggering in its immensity, employs over 2,000 people and animals, includ- ing fifty elephants in gem-studded coronation robes and lavish head dresses. East Indian Marimbo and British Imperial foot guard bands. scores of festival tongas. bearing rajahs and ranees, will be in the van of the pageant. A golden tenn. pie, designed by Gahdi Moodi of Delhi, ornate ceremonial cars and gorgeous royal howdahs add im- measurably to the splendor of The Dunbar.

She Was Found in Bathtub With Her Head Bashed in - Authorities Are Puzzled

San Jose. Calif,, May 31-- (UP) "A young husband was held in county jail today while authorities sought to solve the mystery sur rounding the death of his attrac- tive wife on the stanford Univer. sity campus, where both were prominent.
 David Lamson, sales manager for the Stanford University Press, was detained after the body of his wife. Alene, 2S, was found in a partly-filled bathtub at their campus hobe.

 T know sho was murdered, but before God, l didn't do it," Under- sheriff Earl Hamilton quoted him as saying.

relief bill, but failed to come to Q definite stand. They were divided when the house was called to order and continued to register varying opinions as discussion of the meas ure was held.
 The Brennan bill calling for a sales tax exempts such things us farm products, foodstuffs, drugs sold on prescription. It would amount to a tax of about $5 0 per- Brennan, and would constitute re- ly over- -burdened.
 Rep Thoms declared that the house had before 1t two questions One is the relief of unemployment and the other the relief of real estate taxation. The questions are inseparable. At the present time foreclosures throughout the state are great and if continued the banks will own all the property in Connecticut.
 Waterbury's taxes, like those of other towns and cities, are as high as anybody can stand. A sales tax Is the only way in which to have everybody bear the burden equit- ably. Waterbury has handled the unemployment situation excellently and Is looking for no bond relief from the state. What 1t does want, though, is relief for owners and occupants of real estate alike.
 Rep. Peck of Bristol strongly. opposed the proposed sales tax. He was answered by Rep. Fisher of Stamford who pointed out that 0 sales tax would bring in $S,000,- 900 0 year without placing any re- strictions on towns. Rep. Joe Gar ner Estill of Salisbury and his col- league Rep. J. Mortimer Bell, both came out in favor of the sales tax, as did Mrs Joseph Whitney of New Haven.
 Rep. John Markham. the demo. cratic minority leader, who sits beside Rep. Thoms in the house opposed the sales tax although he said that eventually he might be in favor of 1t. Now he believed that the governors relief bill should be passed.
 In response to criticism of the bill Majority Leader Baldwin said that 1t should be passed so that the state would have Jurisdiction over the towns in. the spending of re- lief funds, whereas under the sales tax plan there would Do no such authority. He was of the opinion that lack of control would merely result in more Especial drivers" executive secretaries" and "side. walk inspectors"
 Rep. Thoms and Daniel J. Ma. nancy of Waterbury both said they would vote for the amended relief

IRVING CHASE REEL LECTED AT GAYLORD FARM
FORMER PATR0LMAN
 SEEKS REINSTATEMENT
Bob" Moran's Application to Be Read at Meeting of
 Police Board To-day

The application of former Pa- trolman Robert Moran for rein- statement as e member of the Wa terbury Police department was ex- pected to be read and formally filed at this afternoons meeting of the board of police commissioners Officer Moran, member of the traffic squad for years and Q veter- an of 17 vars of service, resigned over year ago. Charges were pending against him at the time, but the submission of the resigna- ton was the cause of some mis- derstanding as to the patrolman's right. His letter containing his voluntary withdrawal from the force was accepted by the board after the regular meeting had been delayed to permit the commission CTS to summon the officer to the meeting. Having placed his com- munication in the hands of Attor- ney Harry Minor, chairman of the board, Patrolman Moran left the City Hall building without waiting for hearing.
 It was generally understood at that time that had the officer been found his resignation would have been withdrawn.
 Few members of the police de- partment have more friends in this city than Bob Moran. Some very influential citizens have endorsed his efforts to be reinstated. His many years of service and his gen. eral experience as policeman are

 Rep Edward c. Fisher, repub- lican, Stamford, also favored the amendment, and argued that if the people are to be fed and the schools kept open 1t must be adopted. Rep Epaphroditus Peck, republican, Bristol, opposed the change.
 "The people want bread and this bill gives them stone," Rep J. Mortimer Bell, Salisbury, said. "The amendment Is the very heart of It."
 He scored the state for taking no active hand in relieving the dis tress of the cities, and pointed out that Connecticut Is wealthy and has no bonded indebtedness.
 Baldwin retored that relief was purely @ local problem and assert cd the bill would broaden local powers so that each municipality could take care of It's needs.
 A sales tax would put a damper on business, Baldwin continued. He scored municipal officials who ride about in fine cars, with liveried chauffeurs and who "then come up hero crying about economy"
 Mrs Josepha Whitney, New Hav- on democrat, asserted that whether the bill adopted or not, New Haven would not issue additional relief bonds.

 Senator Joseph A. IIackett of Waterbury stated in opposing the bill that 1t was legislating out of existence by taxation an industry of considerable prominence in tho state.

HANDBOOK DESCRIBES
new SECURITIES ACT
Work by Simon Michelet Reveals
Thorough Study Of Law and
Its Effects.

1.-THE Handbook Of the Securities Act
of 1888, is the title Of a book just pub
lished by Simon Michelet. attorney Of
this city. Mr.. Michelet, who was for
merly clerk to the Senate judiciary
Committee, has made thorough study
of the act and the rules laid down for
its administration. It is expected that
when Congress meets in January
amendments to the securities act will
be pressed, and it Is claimed that many
nationally known investment houses are
now holding back on the issue OF new
securities.
According to Mr.. Michelet, of 22s
registration statements filed up to Sep
tember %, not one could be accepted,
due to errors, some major, some minor.
This fact will be one Of the principal
talking points of the advocates OF
amendments to the act. In the opinion
of informed observers here.
OF the 228 issues registered, 80, or
more than a third, are those Of invest
ment trusts. The second largest class,
embracing 40, included mining COM
panies, with gold mines predominant.
Industrials ranked third, with AZ reg
istrations.
Notable for their absence, however,
according to the handbook, were ma
tionally known investment bankers and
prominent underwriting houses. In this
regard the author says:
"a letter written by one investment
banking house expressed grave appre-
hension that potential civil liabilities
imposed upon an underwater by the
act could exceed the amount at which
the issue was offered to the public"

versary Of the society in 1882, DR.. John
OGrady, director Of Catholic Charities,
sent the following message:
What we have in the way of organ
lied social work in Washington we owe,
in large measure, to the Associated
Charities. Our public welfare program
and our child welfare program may
rightly be regarded as its monuments.
The Associated Charities has never been
satisfied with the task OF relieving cur
rent needs. Its gaze has been fixed on
q wider horizon. 1t has been filled with
a holy seal for a better order in which
opportunities would be more equal. Its
spirit has been that Of the crusader.
It has never been afraid to champion
the cause of those who could not
speak for themselves. hope and pray
that the spirit of the Associated Char
tiles may remain with us through this
age of improved technique and more
systematic organization. In behalf Of
the Catholic Charities want to pay
a very special tribute to Mr.. Walter s..
Ufford. His spirit and devotion have
made the Associated Charities. He is
the greatest benefactor of social work
in Washington"
Before coming to Washington Mr..
Ufford served as manager OF the press
bureau of the Citizens Union in the
municipal campaign in New York in
1897, as secretary of the Citizens Com
mittee of 100 to arrange for the quarter
centennial celebration of the National
Conference on Charities and Correc-
tions in New York in 1898, as superin-
tendent of inspection Of the New York
State Board of Charities from 1899 to
1902, and as assistant secretary Of the
New York Charity Organization Society.
He also was general secretary Of the
Federated Charities Of Baltimore from
1902 to 1907.
Mr.. Uford is a writer on charitolog-
ical subjects and holds memberships in
the Cosmos and Torch Clubs, the So
Geological Society of Washington and
the Monday Evening Club At one time
he was president of the last-named or
