MRS BOWLING WAS BADLY HURT
 BY FALL TO-DAY
Fell Down Short Flight of Stairs at HOme-Rush=
 ed to Hospital

Mrs Luke Bowling, prominent democratic worker, fell down a short flight of cellar steps early this morning at her new apartment at 83 Waterville street and was re- moved to St Mary's hospital in an ambulance suffering from internal injuries and possible broken back. Dr M. J. Lawlor, who at- tended her, stated early this af- ternoon that Mrs Bowling was apparently suffering from brok- en back, but that he would not be able to issue a statement until X- ray pictures had been developed and studied.
 The accident to Mrs Bowling created much comment in Water bury to-day. She is well known in the city as an ardent democra- tic party worker. A few years ago she was on the reception committee when the Women's Democratic club brought Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the president, to Waterbury.
 Mrs Bowling, despite her active work in behalf of the democratic party. never aspired to office in the organization but was decidedly active in the affairs of the club and handled important positions on committee work.
 Mrs Bowling and her husband, were matron and superintendent, respectively, of the municipal hos pital on Watertown avenue under the administration of ex-Mayor Frank Guilfoile. Her daughter. Margaret, is now connected with the town clerks office.

New Jersey Boy Lost Him and Governor Issued
 His Orders

Trenton, Dec 15-CU.PO - The entire police force of New Jersey, at the command of the governor. hunted for a stray mongrel to-day because a 11-year-old boy was heart broken. Adolph Gioia, Jr, of Jersey City, N. J.. appealed to Gov ernor A. Harry Moore to help him find "Rex."
 "He is a brown dog" the boy wrote, "a sort of mixed breed. half German and half chow. Will you kindly notify troopers for he might be wandering on a lonely road. He was lost in Lincoln. N. J., near P. o. Box 95. God bless you. Wishing you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year." The governor notified Colonel H. Norman schwarzkopf.. superintendent of state police, and a teleype alarm was sent out. Troopers were in- structed if they could not find Rex to get another dog just like him." Moore answered Adolph's letter, assuring him that tonight when you are sleeping these fine state troopers will be searching for that little dog of yours."

 Washington, Dec 15.-UP)- The Civil Works Administration drive to provide jobs for 100000 Of the nations unemployed in month was lover the top" to-day and received the endorsement of the executive committee of the United States conference of mayors as the most important and suc- cessful of all the recovery steps taken by congress and the presi- dent"
 Civil Works Administrator Hop- kins formally announced to-day that the number of CWA workers "has reached and possibly exceed ed" the 4,000.0OO mark. He said no definite figure was ayailab ble and will not be for week, He credited state and local CWA work CTS with putting the big program lover the top."
 The announcement that the CWA had reached it's quota of employ ment, officially made public to- day, was carried exclusively yes terday by the United Press.
 The mayors urged it's continual tion until those given employment can find work in other channels.
 Tt is unthinkable," the mayors declared in a staetment after con-. ferriltg with high federal officials, that this great attempt to. give work and wages instead of direct relief should be discontinued on February 15, when the present funds will have been depleted"
 The 100000 workers receiving blue CWA pay vouchers are in ad- dition to 100000 recently esti- mated by President Roosevelt to have been reemployed as a result

LOWER TAXES ON
 EARNED INCOMES
Acting Secretary of the Treasury Has RecOnl-
 fnended That Plan

Washington, December 15 - (UP) - A lower federal tax on earned incomes than on income from investments was recommend ed today by Acting Secretary Of Treasury Morgenthau.
 Appearing before the house ways and means committee, Morgenthau also urged abandonment of the present system permitting husbands and wives to file separate income tax returns. Under existing pro- cedure some couples have been able to pay smaller taxes than would have been required under a joint return.
 The treasury head suggested other important changes in pro- posals of a ways and means suo- committee designed to plug loop holes in the present tax laws, raise new revenues and simplify the in- come tax structure.
 The subcommittee had estimated its proposed changes would yield $270,O0O,000 of new revenue. Treasury experts, however, esti- mated the gain at nearer $l0o.- 000,O00. ..
 In addition to the earned in- come recommendations, the treas ury criticized the proposal to limit depreciation deductions of corpor- ations to 75 per cent of the amount actually sustained. The treasury recommended that provisions for discovery depletion" in connec- ton with mining enterprises De eliminated in order to place all taxpayers on the same basis.

Denver, Colo, Dec 15-OP)- Justice today accepted this long standing invitation, traced in letters of gold across the front of the Dem yer Post building here some 40 years ago at t.4e instance of the late F. G. Bonfils, Post publisher.
 Adorned pefittingly with brand new coat of bright aluminium paint, the blind-folded lady, her sword in her hand, took up her new abode at the top of the Denver Post building.
 For more than half a century the great cast-iron lady, standing more than t5 feet in height and weigh ing several tons, had occupied a place of honor above the dome Of the old Denver county courthouse.
 There she stood, unseeing, and apparently unheeding, all the two- score years since Bonfils first ex- tended that widely-quoted invita-, ton:
 70 Justice, when expelled from other habitations, make this thy dwelling place."
 Less than month ago, relentless progress, personified by a wreck ing crew, swept her from her place of honor, expelled her from the habitation of half 8 century.
 While matter-of-fact workmen shouted orders and instructions, she was lowered, Q daingy, un- painted, slightly ridiculous figure, appended to a block-and-tackle. to the ground, Unceremoniously she was loaded on truck, and 'disap- peared.
 Denverites speculated as to her fate. Today they had the answer as the morning sun revealed Justice, her time-worn face aglow once more, her statuesque body adorned anew, already in her place at the apex of the Post building.

CLOUDBURST HIT
 VENICE TO-DAY
 AND MANY DEAD
Water in Canals Raised Four Feet-Fl0Od Races
 Toward ChiOggia

Venice, Dec 15 - U.P.) - A terrific cioudburst, raising the Ven- etian canals four feet above nor mal and flooding nearly all dry ground in the city, swept over Ven- ice to-day and racing southward to Chioggia., Is miles away, drown cd 15 persons.
 Chioggia, where the most con- siderable loss of life occurred. is 2 seaport town, built on an island at the extremity of the Venetion la goon. It is connected to the main- land by large stone bridge. and its construction resembles that or Venice.
 All traffic through the canals sur rendered to the waves, and resi- dents were blocked in the upper 'floofs of their houses. Gondoliers were unable to navigate. first be- cause of the roughness of the can als. and second because of their absolute inability to negotiate the underpasses beneath bridges.
 St Marks Square was under three feet of water and from their upper windows the residents could see motor boats struggling over what is usaully dry ground.
 Many smalled craft anchored 10 public and private wharves were destroyed.
 At times the village of Chioggia, home of fishermen, appeared to Be entirely swept by the ocean. Scores of fishermen lost their ves- sells and meals of livelihood.

Fights Tonight
 Are Postponed

Indictment weather which made state highways hazar- dous for motorists forced Promoter George Mulligan of the Waterbury A. c. to postpone tonight's scheduled boxing show at the Phoenix Arena until next Friday night when he was informed by managers of several Out-of- town pugiIists appearing on the card that the icy roads would deter them from ap- bearing here tonight.
 Then again Promoter Null ligan deemed 1t best to can- eel the show figuring that many Connecticut state fans who wanted to see Al Gainer of New Haven and Bob Olin in their fifth meeting, the ''rubber" bout would not risk the chances of driving here. Two of the New York fighters appearing on the card could make no better time from Broadway to WestpOrt, Conn. than four hours.

 A peculiar angle developed in police court this morning in con- nection with the case when Judge Edward Mascolo stated that he had no jurisdiction in the case and could not stipulate the amount of bail. United States Commis- sioner Harry Krasow appear ing for the accused argued that the court had the right to fix the bail and offered to find cases on record supporting his conten. tion. Judge Mascolo remarked that he would be greatly interest ed to hear evidence in the case and would be particularly pleased to be enlightened on the matter.
 According 10 the claims of the Great Harrington police Osoff in business transaction issued a check for $45 to Joseph M. Kap-- Ian of 365 South Main street of that city. The check was drawn

MERCHANTS co
 RULES ON BONDS
Will Receive Home Loan Bonds According to
 Ruling of Court

Applications will be received by the receiver for the Merchants Trust company for the assignment of Home Loan bonds from now un- til January 1st under an order Of Judge Newell Jennings in superior court to-day.
 The applications will be received from depositors of the savings de- partment. On January 1st, the re- ceiver will come to superior court and show how many applications for the bonds have been received and will state how much in Home Loan bonds the receiver has in hand.
 The deposits will be accepted for assignment at 85 per cent of their value in accordance with to-days order. The applications that the receiver has presented so far fix the value at 90 per cent.
 Judge Jennings stated that S5 per cent is the highest rate that fairly can be paid. explaining that the receiver has fixed 85 per cent as the value on all other deposit assignments.
 The Home Loan bonds are being taken in by the receiver, to liqui- date mortgage obligations. So far the receiver has about $20,000 worth. Depositors have applied for over $100.000 of these bonds by asking the receiver to accept the deposits.
 It is believed that the receiver will have enough applications to use up all the bonds by assign ment, by January 1st. At the end of that time it is expected the court will order the receiver to as- sign the bonds to depositors.
 Judge Jennings outlined the plan in the absence of Attorney Francis T. Reeves, counsel for the receiv- CT who was called out of town. He said he had been in conference with officials of the receiver bank. the Citizens & Manufacturers Ma tional Bank, all week. He said the proposition is a complicated one and required considerable consid- eration from all angles.
 After January 1. if some equit- able plan is advanced commercial depositors will also be given chance to apply for the bonds. He

TWO MEN NAMED BYLONERGANTO TO
 FEDERAL JOBS
M. Augustus Lynch of Danbury and Sylvester
 G. Blake of Hartford

Local democratic circles were in- terested today to receive news from Hartford that United States Senator Lonergan of Hartford has recom- mended that M. Augustus Lynch of Danbury be named an investigator in the post-repeal liquor law en- forcement agency of the federal government. MT Lynch was one of the two meain contenders for the post of internal revenue chief for Connecticut but lost out to Dr Ed ward G. Dolan of Manchester. He is Q very frequent visitor at the city hall here.
 MT Lynch is considered a mem- Der of the "old guard. He is on the democratic state central com mittee. His appoi' tment has been endorsed by State Chairman David A. Wilson. The name of Sylvester G. Blake of Hartford has also been proposed by Senator Lonergan and Chairman Wilson for Q similar po- sition.
 His appointment, if made, will constitute the granting of federal job to one of the Fairfield county leaders who has been lined up against National Committeeman Archibald McNeil in recent faction al contests in Connecticut.
 According to reports from Wash- ington, the appointment of MT Blake is practically assured. How ever, there was nothing definite forthcoming concerning MT Lynch Tn the light of his "old guard" con- nections it is possible that Attorney General Homer S. Cummings, Q "new guard" member, may decline to approve him. In other quarters, however, it is said Senator Loner- gan has been assured that both Blake and Lynch would be named. The jobs pay between $1,900 and 2,0O0 a year, net. The men would be under the Jurisdiction of the New York office but would, it is ex- pected; work in Connecticut using their own homes as headquarters.
