 No LiOuOr Smell

Attorney William K. Lawlor, who yesterday drew from witnesses accounts of Steinert's arrest and his subsequent injuries, questioned pr Goldberg this morning. In ans wer to a direct question the doctor said "I did not smell any liquor from MT Steinert's breath when l treated him at the hospital for his head injury"
 In answer to another question a moment later, Dr Goldberg said: "In my opinion this man was not under the influence of liquor. but was dazed from the blows on the head he had received"
 The case had been continued from yesterday by Judge Mascolo to allow time to secure additional testimony as to whether Steinert's $ condition was one of drunkenness or a daze resulting from his in- juries.
 It was testified yesterday, on di- rect examination by Attorney Lawlor, that Patrloman Cluney had struck Steinert as he got out of his automobile. that he had Int him with a blackjack while he was offering no resistance, and that he struck the man again with the blackjack while he was on his knees from previous blow on the head. Steinert had been ordered from his car and placed under arr rest last Friday morning when his car was in a minor accident with a trolley car at Bank and South Leonard streets.
 Patrolman Cluney denied beat ing his prisoner, and claimed he used his black jack only in self defense. He alleged that Steinert had struggled with Eim as he was being conducted to the police call box and at the box had attempted to butt him in the stomach.
 The policeman also denied yes- terday a claim made in court by Frank Lanosa. 15, of Bank street, that he had been struck by the officer for protesting against his brutality. The boy said the officer slapped him twice in the face. while the policeman claimed that he had only pushed the boy away from him when he sought to inter- fere with an arrest.
 Dr Goldberg was the only witt ness placed on the stand today by Attorney Lawlor. His brief testi- mony convinced the judge of stein-

noted speakers and special broad casts will all be served to WATR's listeners in the future as the local station brings Yankee NetWork service to Waterbury.
 Negotiations between network officiaIs and MT Thomas, owner of WATR, had been begun only re- gently, and the announcement of the Yankee Network-WATR pact came this morning as distinct sur prise to the Connecticut radio world. Association of the network and the local station makes Wa terhury another link in the New England chain which is operated by the Shepard stores of Boston and Providence. WDRC, Hartford, and WICC, Bridgeport and New Haven, are already members of the Yankee Network and listeners Of these stations have expressed high satisfaction at the caliber Of the programs brought to them through the chain.
 WATR Listeners Pleased
 Melvin Shepard, network ex- ecutive, in a wire this morning ex- pressed the hope that WATR lis- LGneT9 WUulu DC AAA6AiAy PASSSN with the Yankee Network pro- grams which will be brought to this section through the local sta. ton. He promised full coopera- tion of the chain with the Water- bury station and predicted that both network and station would benefit tremendously from the new association.
 nf wATR, was highly gratified this morning as he commented on the new status of the station. II am more than gratified," MT Thomas said, ito be able to make such an announcement to the public of Waterbury and western Connecti- cut. for I feel that Yankee Net work service through WATR will work greatly to the advantage of the listener. Since WATR began operation as the city's first perma nent commercial station last June, it has been my aim to bring to fhe stations listeners programs of the type and worth which they want to hear. Our network pro- grams, I feel sure, will be fur ther step in this direction, and our listeners will realize anew that WATERS ambition Is to serve truly as q station which reflects the community spirit of Waterbury.
 All Others Delighted
 Similar sentiments were voiced by David Hale Halpern. program director of WATR. Its great step forward for WATR," MT Hal perm said, land it will mean that listeners will hear excellent pro. grams. Naturally, as director of programs, am more than pleased with today's news, for I believe that no network offers such pos abilities for Connecticut, and par ficularly western Connecticut. as the Yankee chain. There couldn't be any more appropriate and thrilling broadcast to open our Yankee Network programs than the big game from Harvard sta dium this afternoon. To me it's

 Insull twisted in his seat, looked toward his attorney, Floyd E. Thompson, then at the jury few feet from him. His hands, which he usually kept folded quietly on his lap, twisted nervously.
 T asked you, MT Insull," salter repeated, "do you approve of such methods?"
 Still Insull was silent.
 :. "Oh, skip 1t, then" said Salter with a shrug. but he looked mean ingly at the jury before he turned away.
 Salter examined the financier re- earding transfer of stocks between Insult Utilities Investments Cor poration. first of his giant holding trusts, and Corporation Securities company, in which the government charges that 500,000 persons lost $143,000,000.
 Salter compelled the troubled witness, who only Thursday was arrogant as of old in his direct testimony, that he, his son and his sister made huge profits by sell ifrg securities of one Insull com- pany to other firms of the group.

PRESIDENT MAY
 WIN IN CRISIS

 (Continued from Page 1.) sible amendments desired by labor, union opinion was expected to go along with the president in view of his intention to investigate conditions thoroughly prior to ex- piration date of the renewed code Feb. 1.
 Francis Dillon, chief of the American Federation of Labor automobile union at Detroit prom ised a statement today. Federation President William Green said labor's position was unchanged. He expressed surprise that the code had not been opened for hearing at the present time. He refused to indicate what action labor would take.
 The presidents proposal to con- fer next week with automobile manufacturers and labor leaders prior to initiating a government study of labor conditions in the industry was generally interpreted as emphasizing control the White House will exercise in future over the MIRA code structure.
 Suggested Conference
 The suggestion for conference was made in letters from the pres ident to Alvan Macauley, president of National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, and William Green, American Federation of Labor head, published simultaneously with an executive order extending the auto code 90 days without change.
 In order to Speed up" an execu- tive study of all automobile work CTS problems, MT Roosevelt said facts presented by management and labor would enable him to de- eide intelligently whether it is | necessary to arrange a public hearing upon the subject. T have no hesitation in telling you that there are 8 number of matters connected with this code with which have never been fully satisfied" the president said. One Clause In Doubt Undoubtedly, the merit" clause which automobile makers demand ed from MIRA and which was re- fused to every other industry ex- cept the chemical manufacturing, was one matter referred to by MT Roosevelt.
 This clause permits hiring and firing employees on a basis of merit without regard to union affilia- tion, and is interpreted by labor leaders as directly in conflict with Section "A of the recovery act.
 The president, said manufactur- CTS had taken important steps" in emitting national h W ard staggering production of new mod els but he desires to develop furth- CT facts on effect of seasonal pro- duction upon employment.
 On another front the national textile relations board was striving to bring peace in the silk industry. Negotiations to end the strike of 25,000 Paterson, N. J., silk dyers were going on here and were to be continued at Paterson. It was re- ported a new peace plan had been submitted for consideration of strikers.

Hollywood Jubilant

Hollywood, Cal, Nov 3--(UP)- Reports from Kansas City that Mary Picf1kford announced a rec onciliation with Douglas Fair banks, ST, were received in the mo- tion picture colony today with mixed surprise and elation.
 Fairbanks himself could not be immediately reached.
 He was week-ending at his rancho Sante Fe home in San Diego county, isolated from telephone communication.
 Close Friend Doubts It
 From a friend, close to both principals, came the blunt state- ment: T don't believe 1t. There must be some mistake"
 The friend has long been close his wife in studio work.
 Many others, however, were not astonished. They had been expect ing some such announcement for weeks. Since the swashbuckling actor returned from his prolonged European sojourn August 21, he and Miss Pickford met frequently, giving rise to reports that a recon ciliation impended.
 Report Gained Impetus
 The reports gained considerable impetus only last night when Fair banks announced he had sold his holdings in London Films, Ltd, his British screen enterprise, and would devote his entire time as an actor to his studio here.
 "I intend to make all my future pictures here," he said, "so I will be unable to give the time and ef- fort to English productions"
