that he had been hired by Lebo Ricci of 154 Orange street to work.
 He admitted that he went to the office of Attorney Charles Summa U few days after he went to the home of Judge Gormley and tho office of Attorney Scully and again after receiving his subpoena on Friday to the Naugatuck hearing. He denied having talked to anyone else at Summa's office aside from Attorney Charles Summa but ad- mitted on ross-examination that Attorney Summa took him to the office of Attorney William J. Lar kin, Jr, counsel for Congressman Goss.
 He stated that he visited tho home of Attorney Gormley and the office of Attorne Scully but said that If he had said anything there credited to him in the questions asked today he must have been out of his head at the time because he was in considerable trouble. The witness also, on cross ex- animation, admitted that every thing in an affidavit presented by Judge Gormley concerning his statements at tho home of Judge Gormley in Naugatuck concerning his auto license, his registration number, his adress and his cccu- patton were correct, hweyer.

She, he. said, was hired by the re- publican town committee and TO. ceived $7 or $8 for election day work. He said he drove an auto- mobile.

Constance Bennett in "Roclsabye'' and Will Rogers in 'To0 Busy to Work" at Strand To-day and Tues.

Constance Bennett in "Rocka- bye" heads the delightful double feature program at Warmers Strand today and tomorrow.
 It took the chic, somewhat so- phisticated and ever.glamorous Miss Bennett to prove what theo- logians, morallsts and psychologists often have failed to prove--that Q woman's primary hunger for moth- erhood; and that no measure of fame can compensate her for Q failure to satisfy this hunger.
 The gay and airy Constance even went Q step further in her DOT traynl of Judy Carroll, gifted but rather cratic actress. She proved that even 0 talent for winning mon away from their wives proves to be n hollow thing, Q pitiful victory.
 Miss Bennett proved those things by the intense reality of her por- trayai. Here was a slice of life that must havo sent many a woman home wondering whether the emancipated sex has not chosen tho wrong road after alL For Connie did not play Judy Carroll, She was Judy Carroll--the great uCCrcbB WnU, UOCuubo OL JIlS iTOHiS twist. of destiny that deprives her of marriage and motherhood. be. comes q person who only keeps on living because she is tremendously brave.
 Judy, as portrayed by Constance Bennett, stands forth great char. acter-a diamond in the rough sparkling with wit, courage and compassion: yet withal. q slip of Q girl. pretty badly beaten, pretty badly crushed.

Roosevelt to

(continued from Page D

the Roosevelt program for econom- ic rehabilitation would incorporate many of the blanks advocated by the liberal republican group in the senate. It also appeared to make more definite the prospect that at least ono of the progressive repub- licans who bolted to tho democra- tic ticket last November would sit in the new cabinet.
 Senator LaI'ollette said Mir Roose- welt gave a sympathetic hearing to his plan for Q $500, 100000 relief appropriation to be distributed on 0 population basis.
 LaTollette said the conference was concerned chiefly with unem- ployment relief. but observers at the Little White House" here be- lleved the cabinet situation was discussed at length. The progress sive republicans are believed to op- pose both owen D. Young and Norman Fl. Davis for tho senior cabinet post, secretary of state. There have been many indications that Mir Roosevelt was anxious to select one of tho two, since he re- gards them as tho leading authori- ties on the international debt situ- utlOus lL Wub hbbuIHSug tHolSASA VI that he may have attempted to persuade Lab'ol1ette and Cutting to accept either Young or Davis in exchange for concessions to their legislative program or to their choice for other cabinet position.
 Senator Cutting has been men, toned as a possible choice Tor secretary of the interior.
 In addition to attempting to smooth out sectional and factional difficulties arising out of cabinet rivalies, MT Roosevelt is expected to give close attention this week to plans for reorganizing the gov ernment departmental structure for economy, and to his power pro- gram. Each morning, however, he will devote himself to swimming and exercising at the Warm Springs foundation.
 Among his callers today. will Dc Professor A. A. Berle, Columbia University economist, and Charles w. Taussig, president of the Amer ican Molasses Company, who have made recent studies of conditions In Cuba.

 Author of the Bill
 Washington, Jan 23--(U. F. = Ratification of the lame duck amendment Is Q long step toward placing control of the government In the hands of chosen representa- tives of the people, Senator George W, Norris, republican, Nebraska, author of the amendment, said to- day. .
 "rhe only opportunity the people of the country have to express their ideas and wishes in regard to national Legislation is the express sion of their will through the elec- ton of their representatives at the general election in November" Norris said. Under democratic form of government, especially, the wishes of the people should be crystalized into a law as soon as possible after these wishes become known.
 Under the old system, not only are these representatives. just elected by the people, prohibited from entering upon their duties, but they must also stand idly by while the old congress, many Of whose members have been repudi- ated at the polls, proceeds to legis- late for the people.
 "The evils of such q situation arc apparent to any student of govern ment. Under these conditions. q congress repudlated at the general election may put on the statute books laws that were actually con. demned in the preceding election Norris pointed out elimination of the short session would elimin- ate the opportunity for an "unjusti- fable" fllibuster, often conducted by "lame duck" members desirious of tying up legislation.

M HOLLYWOOD
 GOSSIP V INTIMATE GLIMPSES AND H INSIDE STUFF ON THE m.. MOVIE COLONY
BY DAN oMAs-

Hollywood.-This and that: Now it's Katherine Hepburn who Is go- ing to take up flying. The young actress has had enough of 1t in her current film to make her want to pilot plane herself. Ivan Lebedeff practically never wears a hat. But he wouldn't walk even to the corner drug store without Q cane.
 For tho first time in his career, Ronald Colman Is making q pie ture in which he doesn't kiss his leading lady. So the other day he suggested that they should re- hearse 0 love scene anyway just 10 the picture would seem authentic. Elissa Landi thought 1t would be a good idea. too.
 Hollywood already has more clubs than any other commit nity of its size in the world. But apparently there's always room for one more. The latest Is the Horror Club, with membership of actors who have appeared in horror films. Charter members are Boris Karloff, Preston Foster, Fredric March, Lionel Atwell, Bella Lugosi and Edwin Maxwell. This fan photo business Is going too far. Even the dogs are ex- changing pictures now. It all started when Edgar Allen Woolf sent photo of his dog to Bob Montgomerys' dog. Then Buster Keaton sent picture of hls dog to Lew Cody's dog. And Jeanette Macdonald sent 0 reproduction of her dog to Nils Asther's hound. What nextY
 Clark Gable Is wearing 0 uniform in his new film, "White Sister" That wouldn't mean much except for the fact that it's the first timo he's donned uniform since he carried spear in q stage play some years ago. Minor Watson, new arrival from behind the foot lights has gotten in the habit of carrying a pocketful of corncob pipes around with him. Gives them away as freely as most people do | cigarets.
 Whenever Myrna Lay wants to hide out, sho simply goes down to her garage. Yes, she has c very nicely furnished apartment above 1t. Marie Dressler, Louise Closser Hale and May Robson arc about the only three women on the screen who can boast of never having had e costume fitting. Una Merkel still is corresponding with her first grade teacher.
 Vince Barnett was lamcnting tho other day because he gets fan let- ters from all over the world but never has had one from Pittsburgh and that's the city he calls home.

He goes for those big black cigars.
 Depression note: Andy Clyde buys his suits by tho dozen. Only his screen suits, though and there's 0 reason for that. He usually ruins three or four of them during each film.
