New Haven, April 13-How 10 treat gladiolus corms before they are planted, in order to control the destructive thrips, was described to-day by B. H. Walden. assistant entomologist of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment station. The past two summers thrips in this state have ruined thousands Of gIadiolus blossoms which hitherto had been comparatively free from insect injury. The pest is new here.
 The thrips can be killed on the corms, MT Walden said. The most convenient method for the person who has less than 10000 corms Is the use of flake napthalene. This material is of the same compost ton as moth balls. and it may be bought by the pound in many drug stores. Although the treatment should be made earlier, applica- tion by the middle of April will be effective.
 According to MT Walden's direc- tions, the corms should be cured as usual, at least month, and cleaned. They are then placed in stout paper bags and the flake napthalene scattered among them at the rate of one ounce to 100 corms, or, one pound to 1900 corms. The bags should then be closed tightly, which may be done by fold ing the tops over and fastening them with a paper clip.
 Where the temperature of the cellar. or other storage space, is 60 degrees F., or higher, the corms

State Board of Fisheries and Game Requests Anglers Cooperation in Checking Movement of Planted Fish

The Connecticut board of fisher-
 ies and game has issued the fol-
 lowing statement:
 This. year we plan to tag about
 cellu1oid, numbered on one side
 and with the words Return to the State Board of Fisheries and Game" on the other. The tags will be found
 inside the trout in the body cavity.
 The tags are large enough to be
 conspicuous and sportsmen will
 have no difficulty in finding the
 tag if there is one in the trout
 which they catch.
 Our purpose in tagging the trout
 Is to secure definite information
 about the results of planting and
 the movements of plante dtrout in
 the streams, to the end that if
 improvements in restocking meth
 ods are possible the opportunity
 to make those improvements will be indicated by the reports re- ceived from sportsmen cooperating in this trout tagging experiment. The success of this experiment which may lead to improvements in restocking methods resulting in better fishing depends entirely
 upon the cooperation which we re- ceive from the sportsmen in promptly returning tags which they find, together with accurate infor- nation as noted below: 1. Name and address of angler. 2. Name of stream.
 3. Date trout was caught. 4 Species of trout and tag num- Der.
 5. Location in stream where trout was caught, i. G., above or be- low leased area. upper or lower portion of the leased area.
 8. Location in relation to land- marks.
 The most essential information is the location in the stream where | tagged trout are caught and the date when caught. Additional in- formation such as size and weight of trout, weather conditions, or comments about any unusual con- ditions will be appreciated but such inrormatlon Is not required. Since tags are not visible, sports men are urged to open and clean their trout as soon as they have been killed so as to determine if shO IAOaS oOCii tdSSCu tLlu tO note down the location where that tagged trout was taken. Uncident- ally they ought>to kill the trout before puttin9 them in the creeD In order to encourage the re- turn of the tags with full data on all six items great many prizes have been offered by manu- lecturers and dealers in fishing
 tackle and other outdoor equip ment.
 Some of these prizes will be awarded to certain lucky num- bers in the trout taken during the first deek end, Saturday and Sun
 day; April 15, and 16. The balance
 of the, prizes will be awarded after
 the close of the trout fishing sea- son on July 15.
 The only requirement for eligibil-
 ity to win one of the prizes is that the tag must be returned to this

Deceased Escaped
 Being Bumped Off" Here By Hiding Out
Brought to This City to Act as "Muscle Man" For Policy Game Remained in Apartment in Willow Street Section-Could Have Gone Back to Italy But Laughed At Idea

Police authorities of several cit- tes in Connecticut and Massa- chusetts view the killing in Spring field yesterday noon of Michael Fibre, 37, notorious muscle man and racketeer as part of a feud, which has existed in New England for several years Fioro's photo was taken from the local rogue's gallery this morning and placed among the likenesses of the "dead ones." Only that Fibre remained undercoyer while in Waterbury, the police, are inclined to believe that he would have been Dumped off" here. Members of the emer- gency squad on being tipped off by the Springfield police that Fibre had planned to spend a few days in Waterbury kept lookout for him. The widely known muscle man who was at liberty under bonds pending a decision from the immigration officials, who had hopes of deporting him to Italy as an "undesirable," went into retire. ment while here and failed to make public appearance. Some of his pals had an apartment in the Willow street section and lived in style.
 Fibre was brought to Waterbury to act as a strong arm man in starting a policy game here. He was one of the several suspected promoters of the Springfield game" which was to include sev- eral Waterburians. With the ar- rest of two of the leaders here the partnership was dissolved.
 Shortly after leaving Waterbury last December Fibre was seated in an automobile with one Mrs Pas uualina Miranda of Springfield, a member of bootlegging clique. From a passing auto stream of bullets was pumped into the park ed car. Mrs Miranda was killed, but Fibre escaped with shots in the arm.
 Mrs Miranda's husband was put on the spot several months pre- vious. She had been warned to keep out of the liquor racket, but following Flores advice she bec- came too active and knew too much. Her death failed to scare Fibre. His counsel and the police officials advised him to return to Italy. He laughed at them. Yes- terday noon hour he walked into a barbershop at 1182 Columbus avenue and had his hair trimmed. He was seated in the chair when two young men sauntered in and greeted him with "Hello Mike" As they chatted with him Fibre looking in the mirror detected one of the men drawing gun. He tried to leap out of the chair, but he was not fast enough. A bullet pierced his thoat. He fell to the floor and

 Soaking the corms for three hours in bichloride of mercury, one ounce to eight gallons of water, will kill the thrips. but this material is highly poisonous and must be cere- fully handled.
 Mir Walden reported that in sev- eral instances last spring where the corms were treated to kill the thrips, and then planted early, most of the plants lowered before they were injured by migrations of this pest from other plantings.

BRICKLAYERS WIN
N. |. B. AWARD

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-The
National Labor Board has sustained
the award handed down August 5 by
an arbitration tribunal in New York
city dealing with wages and hours
for union bricklayers and the question
Of sub-contractors. The employers
had challenged the award, contending
q so-called earlier award should sup
plant it.
The labor board had before it only
the question of which award to uphold.
The award approved gave virtually
everything to the bricklayers which
they sought. The boards action
means they will receive wages Of
1920 day instead of the 50 wage
demanded by the contractors. About
$4,000 men are affected.
The decision is expected to have q
big influence on the wages of 125,OO0
building workers in New York city
and vicinity. A majority of the crafts
are now receiving $12 day.
Pending final determination of the
controversy, many thousands of dol
lars have been held in escrow, which
will now be paid in wages to the
bricklayers.
