sued, the interest only was guaran- teed. Later, when congress passed the bill calling for the guarantee ing of the principal as. well as the interest of the bonds, the banks and practically all other mortgag- CTS jumped at the acceptance of the bonds as sound investments.
 It was surprising, therefore, to- day, when the holder-of first mortgage who is seeking to fore close, declined to accept the Home Loan bonds in lieu of cash for the settling of the mortgage debt. That is what happened in the case of Sarah V. Chipman, who is plaintiff in a foreclosure action against Harry A. Solomon. The plaintiff was represented in court by Attor- ney Mary Wooster Sutton who told Judge John Rufus Booth she had advised her client not to accept the bonds. Previously, Attorney Sidney s. Cassel had informed the court his client had made application to the local office of the Home Loan corporation, that the application was acceptable and would go through, but that the plaintiffs consent to accepting the bonds, was not given.
 Attorney 'Cassel asked for a law day sufficiently long enough to af- ford his client a chance to go td other sources in refinancing his property. Judge Booth made the law day May 15, 1885.

State Still Active
 In School TB Drive
OnIy $40 Fer Cent of 56,942 X-Rayed Last Year
 Found to Have Indications of Disease

Only $40 per cent of the 56,942 Connecticut school children x-rayed during the past year in the state department of health's statewide drive against tuberculosis were found to have definite, indications of disease, according to an article by Dr Willard knowlton and pr Benjamin G. Horning, director and epidemologist respectively. of the bureau of preventable disease, ap- bearing in the departments month iy bulletin published today.
 The x-ray campaign, which the department inaugurated just year ago this month, resulted in the finding Of 1856 children whose pie lures raised some question con corning their health. These were referred to their family doctors. Only very few of these cases were reported as probably being active secondary type of pulmonary tuber- culosis. For these, immediate san- atorium care was recommended The findings were as follows: 54,- s76 had no evidence of tuberculo- sis lesion; 972 had lime deposits or scars suggesting healed or heal ing primary tuberculosis; 33 had evidence of probably active pull monary tuberculosis; 773 had ques- tionable x-ray shadows, suggesting some abnormality; 15S had extra pulmonary lime deposits or scars, suggesting healed or healing pri- mary tuberculosis. The remaining 6O3 had anatomical abnormalities, such as cervical. bifurcated or fused ribs, scar or fracture, azygos lobe, of lung, etc. This summary, the writers point out, is provis- ional.
 X-Ray Invaluable
 Commenting on the results ot the campaign, the doctors said that the first step in the control ot tuberculosis always was and ever will be to find the cases, since obvi- ouly a patient cannot be treated or steps taken to prevent spread of the disease until the case is found. Even with physical examin- ation discovery of the disease is

London (UP)-The battle for su- premacy along the worlds longest commercial air highway, connect ing Europe and the Far East. will be heightened when Great Britain completes in the near future the last link in the long planned Lon. don- Melbourne service.
 This 12.500-mile service will, it is hoped, be put into regular oper- ation before the end of this year. according to the British Air Min istry's latest report on civil avia- tion. The final uncompleted linF between Singapore and Darwin. in the far north of the Australian continent, will be worked by an Australian company in which Im- perial Airways, the British govern ment subsidized company, has sub stantial interests.
 Three Seek Supremacy.
 The principal contestants in the struggle for commercial suprem- acy along the Far Eastern route are Imperial Airways. which all ready operates weekly service between London and Singapore. the Royal Dutch Air Lines-or K. l.. M.-who have regular service between Amsterdam and Batavia. in the Dutch East Indies: and the French air line from Paris to Sal. gon, in Indo-China. Thoroughour the greater part of the route be- tween Europe and the Far. East the companies of the three coun- tries are in keen competition.
 While the airmen of 13 nations are tuning up their machines tn preparation for the England-Aus. tralia air race starting on Oct 20 BrItain's own aviation experts are quietly completing their own plans for the inauguration of the regu. lnr service along tho worlds long est nirway. The international nif marathon maly easily bring Europe and Australia within three hyInR days of each other. Imperial Ar. ways are planning t0 cover the dlsiAnce on their regular service in i3 or ia days.

difficult, so that the x-ray in recent years has become dependable help.
 About one-sixth of all the school children in the state were x-rayed in the years drive, they stated. and this number coupled with the fact that a quarter of a million circulars were distributed to par- ents should be of great education al value and should focus public attention on the problem of tuber- culosis control.
 Cooperation Appreciated
 The writers commended and thanked the many agencies which assisted the state department of health ifi promiting the tubercu- losis cases-finding survey. These in- cluded the state tuberculosis com mission physicians at the various sanatoria, the state board of edu- cation, the Connecticut Medical so- ciety, local physicians, health off, cers, public health nurses, officials and teachers of public and paro- chial schools and parent teachers associations. It was the united ef- forts of all these that carried the program through to it's conclusion. the authors declared,

tain Warns he found the place "a madhouse with the officers run ming around wild"
 Warns and other officers testi- fled that Alagna was known as a "troublemaker" and that the late Captain Robert Wilmott, who died seven hours before his ship fell prey to flames, had told them he feared the wireless operator. But George Rogers, chief radio opera tor, depicted Alagna as hero. He told how Alagna stuck with him at the radio until the end and how the latter saved his life by drag ging him from the smoke and flame-ridden wireless shack.
 Conflicting testimony was given concerning the possible cause of fire. Some thought it might have started in an explosion; others sug- gested that possibly inflammable cleaning polishes or gasoline, may have become ignited, accidentally or deliberately by some human hand.
 It was brought out that no at- tempt was made to close fire doors between the lounge and the writ, ing room. where the fire started.

 practical speed compatible with safety and comfort under present conditions of air transport. The service will be speeded up later when the volume of traffic war rants it.
 The biggest single job in con- nection with the service now being planned is the construction of a new airport at Singapore by the government of the Straits Settle ments. When it is completed it probably will be one of the prin- cipal airports and aviation clear ing houses for the Far East.

decided that Waterbury must be saved from the peril of having a shirtless man in its midst. So what to do, pom. dercd the policemen.
 Waterbury's budget makes no provision for buying shirts to, save the city from a wave or nudism, so it looked difii-. cult. Then PatrOlman Pat had an inspiration. He left the sta- tion and crossed Field street to the; office of the Diocesan Bureau of Social Service. There he explained the situa- ton, and in a few minutes he. was back to display to the desk sergeant a gleaIning new white shirt.
 The drunk was outfitted with the. shirt, thereby cover. ing his chest. It was a, good fit, too, and he strOlIcd out feeling very proud of his new piece of apparel.
 Sergeant Joe and PatrOlnlan Pat, having saved the city from the nudist peril, went on with their work.

New York, Sept 2S. (UP)-The department of Commerce's three weeks old probe into the burning of the $5S0O,000 luxury liner Mor- TO Castle wound up it's public -ses- sions to-day.
 The inquiry board, which has heard charges of sabotage, of in- efficiency and cowardice on the part of officers ard crew, and stories of mysterious explosions while the fire ragged, intended to clean up a few loose ends of the testimony.
 Meanwhile, a federal grand jury seeking to determine if there was cause for prosecution in the disas- trous fire which killed 134 persons, heard four Ward line officials who were subpoenaed immediately after testifying yesterday before the commerce department board.
 The four were Franklin D.. Mooney. president; Henry E. Ca- baud, first vice president: Thomas s. Torreson, marine superintendent and Angelo Blaco, shipping master.
 All denied laxity on the Morro Castle although Mooney admitted the company gave no instructions to captains of the line concerning the sending of SOS's. Both Cabaud and Mooney testified that num- tions were carried to Havana on the liner.
 The president, the vice president and the marine superintendent, all testified indignantly, concerning ''trouble" caused by George l. Al agna, second radio operator of the wrecked | CT, who charged at pre- vious sesslons that Acting Captain William F. Warns delayed the sos.
 They said Alagna delayed the Morro Castle on one occasion un- til Ward Line officials signed an agreement for higher wages and better conditions for operators.
 s'Was that agreement kept ?" asked Chairman Dickerson N. Hoover.
 Tt was not" Mooney snapped. tWe filed a protest with the fed eral radio commission, which is still considering it."
 Blaco, the shipping master who hired the lines crews, admitted re had never been to sea, but ex- plained he was able to tell a good deck hand or good engine room man." by observation.
 I've. Intend to end the inquiry to-day" Hoover said, 'so that we may devote the next several weeks to the report of our findings and Recommendations"
 The recommendations, 1t was understood. may cause wide changes in federal regulations of messenger steamers. and particu. larly those covering the responsi- .blllfy of officers and operators.
