Mr.. MallOn Referred to
The Wrong Cespedes

To the Editor of The Star:
Many Cubans and Americans were
greatly amazed to read in Tuesdays
Star the highly erroneous statement by
Mr.. Paul Mallon in regard to Mr. Car
los Manuel de Cespedes, nsw President
of Cuba.
The literary picture given by Mr.. NAL
lon in his statement is that of Carlos
Miguel de Cespedes, not related to Pres
ident Cespedes, and one of Machado's
right hand men.
If I make this observation it is be-
cause a newspaper of the reputation OF
The Washington Star should be very
careful, especially at this critical mo-
ment, to keep its readers we'll informed

tective Roland filling of the office Of States Attorney Lawrence At Lewis that Miss Saddler VIII be- come a mother about the last of this month or during the first week in April. tse r yl4s kfIt4
 Since the April term opens gn April 4th. it appears q certainty that Miss Saddler will be unable 70 come to Waterbury. It is expected that her case will be continued un- till the June term.
 The question arises as to how the jail authorities are going fq handle the situation after the ba1T is born. There is no law in tpP state statutes that fits the ca9e. Whether the baby will be kept in jail with the mother. or whether the mother will be freed to carp for the baby until her case is called for prosecution, remains ques- ton.
 Miss Saddler is charged with having fatally stabbed Marshnn Lassiter during party on Locusf street on last December 18th. 6he is reported to have told authorizes that she came to Waterbury from the south a few months prior to the stabbing incident.
 Under the present system. IoE prosecuting murder cases, the state attorneys office calls grand jury which after hearing the facts is called upon to render a finding. Upon the grand jury's finding the state proceeds.

Hartford, March 16-UP)- Caught unawares by the sudden ness with which the beer modifi- cation bill was brought up in con- gress, state officials were unprep par ed today to say just what taxation would be levied on the beverage in Connecticut.
 The federal law provided for the laying of a state tax in addition to that collected by the national gov ernment. William H. Blodgett, state tax commissioner, and some members of the general assembly have conferred on the matter, but no decision has been reached.
 It is generally agreed that the tax mush not be so high as to en- courage bootlegging of beer.
 Control of it's sale and distribu- tion also remains in doubt. Cover nor Cross expects the state com mission, named two weeks ago to study this matter, to handle it when it reports to the general assembly either this month or early in April. The record must be made by April IA.
 The commission, headed by Col John Buckley, Hartford, was named before it was known President Roosevelt would have the modified tion bill pushed through congress. with the intention that it suggest means of distribution and control in event of modification or repeal.
 While Connecticut did not ratify the 18th amendment, 1t enacted a state enforcement law, which pro- vides, however. that any beverage legal under federal law is legal in the state.

 The measure, designed to save the state $2.0OO,00O in the next bi- ennium through reduction of sal aries of all state employees, hit a snag when the democratic-con- trolled senate refused to concur in elimination of salaries of members of the tuberculosis commission.
