An assortment of cases greeted Judge John F. McGrath in police court this morning, including three drivers, who were involved in au- tomobile accidents over the week. end. Notwithstanding the variety of cases, there were few cash cus- toners in the assemblage of pris- oners.
 Anthony Hughes, B, of 71 Gen. ter street, Boston, Mass, whose machine accomplished a nose dive through the guard rail fence of a bridge on the Meriden road Satur- day noon, was given a nolle. He was arrested shortly afeer the ac- cident and charged with reckless driving.
 Five minutes before court was opened question which two driv- CTS debated for sometime Saturday night, was amicably settled. Martin Pecukonis, 20, of 109 Ernest ave- nue and Paul A. Benedict of 22 Fox street, couldn't agree as to re- sponsibility following a collison on Highland avenue. Patrolman John Deeley heard the stories of both men and gave each a ticket. Be- fore court the two accused drivers decided how the damages should be met. AS long as they were sat- isfied the charges of reckless driving were nolled.

JURY UPSET
 NEGROES PLANS

Mansfield, o. (UP)-Miscarriage of the "best laid plans of mice and mem is not always the harsh mis- fortune contemplated by the Scotch bard in his famous poem.
 Witness the case of James Allen, Cincinnati negro, who planned to spend the rest of his days behind the walls of Ohio penitentiary. Be- cause his plan misfired, he now finds himself cleared entirely of Q charge of first degree murder.
 Allen was one of group of four convicts at the Ohio reforma- tory, who were charged with mur. der in connection with the killing of guard during jail break. Under the impression that mercy would be extended if he would save the county the expense of a trial. Allen entered a plea of guilty. To the surprise of all concerned, the court sentenced him to the electric chair.
 Court of appeals. however, re- versed the judgment, on the ground that the trial judge had &C., cepted the guilty plea without fully advising the accused of his rights and of the possible consequences of entering such plea.
 The case then was tried again on plea of not guilty. The jury stood nine for acauittal and three for conviction.
 Recently, another jury voted unanim ously for acquittal.

 It was pointed out here, that Norman, while he may be prac- tically dictator of the bank, neces- sarily takes orders from the treas ury and from Neville Chamberlain. chancellor of the exchequer, re- garding currency policy.
 Last weeks removal of the "peg" from the pound in relation to the French franc. allowing the pound more or les sto huctuate with the dollar, was interpreted here as lrepudiation of Norman's prefer ence to keep the pound anchored closely as possible to gold cur rencies.
 Therefore any agreement be- tween Norman and governor of the New York Federal Reserve bank, for joint currency action would have as little chance of acceptance by Chamberlain as by President Roosevelt, 1t was argued. It was more likely, financial men said, that serious currency nego- tiations would await the arrival at Washington in October of Sir Frederick Leith Ross, "big brain" of the British treasury and chief government economic adviser. President to Listen Hyde Park, N. Y., Aug 28-(UP) President Roosevelt entered the final week of his vacation to-day with grave problems, domestic and international, confronting him.
 The chief executive was to meet Montagu Norman, governor of the Bank of England, and George Har- rison, head of the New York Fed eral Reserve Bank. It was be- Iieved they would discuss the broad question of currency stabil- ization.
 It was made clear, however, that MT Roosevelt's position was to be that of an interested listener. The visit of the two bankers was at their request, it was said.
 It is not thought new American monetary policy might result. Only last week the White House said 1t was not interested in dollar fiuc- tuations on foreign exchanges, but only in the increase of commodity prices.
 Before meeting with Norman and Harrison, the president planned to take up with Secretary of the Interior Ickes. head of the public works administration the appointment Of the oil supervisory board and the allocation of addi- tional public works funds.
 It was understood that Ickes was coming here prepared to submit the names of several persons to as- sist the president. his department and the bureau of mines, in super vising the oil industry.
 James A. Farley, postmaster general, and dispenser of federal patronage. also was to call at Hyde Park during the day. It was be- lieved he would suggest appointees for the three District of Columb bid commissionerships and posts in the diplomatic service.

master A. N. Colgrove, although
 the latter, it is understood, would
 rather run for registrar of voters
 because nomination by the repub- lican party would be equal to elec- ton.
 Today R. William Hampson, one of the city's leading and most re- spectacle businessmen of the city, was mentioned for the mayoralty post. MT Hampson, when talked with, said: of hand, am not a candidate. I have never been iden- tified with politics during my life." The republican leaders of the city feel that MT Hampson, because of his excellent standing in the com would be an ideal man to head their ticket. Whether MT Hampson will enter the field is yet to be found out but today on all sides he was mentioned.
 The republican primaries will be held week from tomorrow. The other candidates in the field men, toned included former Controller Elmer Parker and former Prose- cutting Attorney Emil Hummel. The tickets for the primaries will be filed next Saturday night with the town committee. There is every likelihood that there will be no bat tie at the primaries providing the Pape forces have the privilege of some of the delegates to the city convention. Otherwise, the battle will be fought on September 9th at the primaries instead of at the city convention.
 Town Chairman John H. Crary of the democratic party was pre- pairing today to set a date for a meeting of the democratic town committee so that time for the party primaries might be set.
 As the democratic primaries will be formal ones, entirely absolved from inter-party battles, they will be brief. No changes in the present makeup of the democratic ticket are anticipated.

 Berlin, Aug 2s-Chancellor Adolf Hitler. already the center of a dip lomatic whirlpool because of the Austrian Nazi Threats against the Austria government, gave allied powers food for more anxious thought today with the statement to give up the rich Saar territory
 Flying to Rudesheim, 50 miles from the Saar border, after a cere- mony the Tannenburg. memorial, (East Prussia) in honor of Presi- dent Paul Won EIindenburg, Hitler said in a speech to 150,000 persons: "The Saar must be returned to Germany. Germany never will re- nounce the Saar district. If the Versailles treaty is holy to us 1t must be holy also to our enemies" !" He referred to ''lies" outside of Germany that his government was ''suppressing" Germans.
 '1 am always ready to appeal to the nation again." he said. If do, more than i've -sixths of the nation will be behind us."
 The Saar basin, rich in minerals. was placed under 8 league of na- tions commission. Profits from its coal mines compensate France for coal mines destroyed by the Ger man army in the. World war. Pro- vision was made for q plebiscite in 1885, at which it's people will say whether they remain under league control or reunited with Germany.
 Hitler's Saar speech followed by only few hours his speech at Neudeck on the occasion of the 18th anniversary of the battle, of Tannenberg, with Field Marshall Hindenberg routed the Russian ar- mics.
 The aged Hindenberg was hon. ored not only in speeches on the annivefsary. but was presented with two estates adjoining his own, totaling 5000 acres which will be tax free throughout the male suc. cession of the Hindenberg line.
