RED CROSS PLANS ]
 RELIEF MEASURES
New Phases of Operation Here May Be COm-
 pIeted This Week

Plans for new phases of opera ton of the Red Cross emergency relief in the city are being made and will probably be completed later in the week. New ideas on disaster relicf were discussed at the meeting held in Hartford yes- terday, attended by delegtses from Waterbury. and known as the Disaster institutes" Mrs Edith Ladd of the local chapter, has returned from Wash I ingt0n, where she was the sole representative of the city at the national conference. Mrs Ladd re- ports the conference to have been the most largely attended gtaher- ing of it's kind ever held at Wash | ington, with more than 1.400 dele- gates representing every state m the Union.
 The plenary session was held in Continental Memorial hall, and was presided over by Henry Nor renthau. former ambassador to Turkey. Every phase of Red Cross activity was discussed at this time with addresses from Judge Barton Paine. national chairman, James l., F.ieser, vice chairman of domestiG operations and William David Cook, IA year old delegate from Missouri, whose talk was one of ! the most interesting on the speak ing program.
 Following this meeting a session was held in the Chamber of Com
 merce building, at which veterans legislation was discussed. No con- clusion was reached in regard to I the legislation.

PACKAGE STORES
 WILL KNOW SOON
Three Judges Have Their Case and Decision. to
 Come Shortly

Hartford, Conn, April 17.-(UP) Whether package stores Will pc permitted to continue operating under the same privileges afforded druggists in the state, to-day resi- ed with constitutional. court of three judges.
 Final briefs in the long battle of the Connecticut Package Store owners to invalidate the state liquor control act as it relates to their business, were filed in U. s, district court late yesterday. The decision will determine whether a temporary injunction obtained against the liquor control board and state and county officials, will be made permanent.
 Counsel for William Shore, Hart ford grocer, who brought the in- junction proceedings, have insist ed the control act discriminatory in that druggists are permitted to sell longer hours, in smaller quan- titles and without regard to zon- ing ordinances.
 In the final brief of the plaintiff. counsel again attacked the consti- nationality of the act and assailed the contention of the, state the plaintiff has adequate remedy at law without appealing to a consti- tutional court.
 "As nearly as we can make out, this adequacy seems to reside in. a privilege to be sent to jail and to remain there until such time as the United States supreme court passes on the constitutoinality of the act" the brief declared.

Federal Aid To Help
 Local Governments
Critical School Conditions, Public Health Units and
 Community Police Protection to Be Benefited

Legislation has been introduced into the present congress to pro- vide aid for the suffering school Nystem of the country. Conditions are critical in the world of educa- ton. On all hands we find schools closed, special departments such as kindergartens eliminated in schools that are open and teachers in vast numbers working without pay. The case for federal aid to the public schools is . strong one.
 The present bills provide for the ailocation of federal grants or loans by the United States com missioner of education on the basis of relative need. So far, so good. There is talk, however, of impend- ing changes to the bills which would force division of the money among the states on the basis of their school population. With this suggestion the National Municipal Review takes vigorous issue. If money is to be appropriated for the aid of education Is this finan- cial crisis, it should be spent where it is needed to keep the schools open. It would be the height of folly for the same proportion of funds to be allotted to Alabama, where approximately half the schools are still closed despite desperate efforts of united citi- zenry to keep them open, and to New York state, which has had relatively little trouble.
 Eliminating Waste Stressedi
 There are two other points to be considered here. Unconditional federal assistance would simply re- suit in freezing of the present wasteful administrative organiza- tion of the school systems of many states. If federal money is to be spent, 1t should not be spent with out strings attached, strings which would make possible the elimina- tion of millions of dollars in waste that is due to the small school dis trict in many states.
 The second point to bear in mind IS that schools are not the only

LOCKED
 OUT BY OWNERS
Garment Industry in New York Took New Angle
 This Morning

New York, April T-(UP)- Nearly 50,000 workers in the gar ment industry were locked out of their shops today as contracting plant owners called a strike in pro- test against the alleged MIRA code violations of jobbers.
 The strike was ordered by the United Association of Dress Manu- lecturers, Inc. It's officials charged that the National Dress Manufac- turers association was exceeding the bounds of recovery rules.
 Contractors called the strike in protest against what they described as kick back" system conducted by jobbers. They said that for each contract they received, they were forced to return a portion of the money to jobbers for assurance that they would receive further business. They also contended that jobbers were refusing to pay their 35 per cent of labor costs.
 Samuel Oxhorn, president of the contractors organization, said he was willing to postpone the strike pending arbitration. Jobbers re- fused the offer.
 David Bublinsky, president of the International Ladies' Garment Workers Union, said the order was tantamount to a lockout. He or- dered workers to report for work at all plants that were not closed.

Todd had lived at the Belle Is- land residence for 40 years, yet the oldest settlers admitted they knew little of him or his habits. He kept much to himself and for many years operated a lime kiln at Red- ding, which he inherited from his foster-father, John Todd, who built the Belle Island home. Todd dis posed of the kiln some years ago and for a while lived at New Ha- ven, until the death of his wife. His frequent arrivals and depart ures from the island >caused little comment.
 He was a trustee of his foster fathers estate, valued at more than $10O,0O0 and it was his ab- sence from meeting of the trus- tees at Bedding Thursday night that led to search for him by police who had been notified by q son. Stanley. of New Haven.
 How Estate Is Divided
 Upon Todd's death. it was re- ported, one-third of the estate was to go to Stanley, q third to q daughter, Ethel Todd Merritt, q writer, of Shamokin, Pa, and a ninth each to three children Of John Todd, son by a first mar- riaGe.
 Investigation of the disappear ance of the aged recluse first re- vealed presence of four glasses and pack of playing cards on sit- ting room table at the home. There was evidence there had been drink ing. police said, although it also was considered the set-up may have been deliberately arranged 10 indicate the victim had partici- pated in drinking party prior to . his death.
 It was this discovery that led to reports a woman and two men had visited the house the night before he disappeared.
 Finding of Body z Search of the beach revealed the body lying in the mud at the foot of the wall. The medical ex- aminer attributed death to drown ing and denied there were any marks of violence on the body. A footprint of q woman's high heel, found nearby. was preserved. Fingerprints on the glasses found at the EVme were photographed by state police of Hawthorne. N. Y., : barracks, and turned over to Con- necticut state police. What they revealed was not made known.

 There was an air of cheerful ex- pectancy in the house, which was packed to the last seat. Many dis tingiushed persons were among those who awaited details of the first prosperity" budget since the crisis.
 The chancellor said the rise of industrial production and reduc- tion of unemployment, combined with cheerful business indices and a surplus in the treasury "all combined to establish a new spirit of hope and confidence"
 !. Chamberlain disclosed that his gift to beer drinkers in last years budget had proved profitable. Des- bite the reduction of a penny in the beer tax, revenue &rom beer increased $25, 5,750,000.
 Chamberlain, always orthodox in financial matters, decided to de- vote the surplus from last year to reduction of the national debt in- stead of carrying it over into the new budget.

, local governmental service to have been hard hit by the depression.' Read "Our Starving Libraries" by R. L.. Duffus, to get dramatic picture of what has been happening to the most important cultural service with which our civilization has provided adults. Or communi- cate with the American Public Health association to Jearn of the abandonment of modern public health units which prevent disease that would take economic toll far beyond the small expenditure re- quired for prevention. Public health is purchasab1e" has been the slogan, of this group for many years. It is sad but true that we are no longer buying it. This is not to speak of the other services of local government: there are communities where police protec- ton is breaking down due to lack of money to meet pay-rolls and re- new or repair equipmcnft. In city after city officers are riding motor cycles no longer fit for their pur- pose, and firemen are fighting fires with leaky hose and worn out bumpers.
 Something Must Be Done
 These services, too. require fed eral consideration. The fact of the matter is that in many sections of the country local government has been breaking down-that he serv- ices that supply the very founda- tion of modern civilization are no longer being rendered-and that something must be done and done quickly to prevent such commun- ities from complete disintegration. All the social and cultural services of local government are important and interdependent--ta any one away and the effect may be un- thinkable.
 It is time someone did some thinking and laid down some principles of federal aid to local governments. As a starter, these might be considered:
 1. Money should be allocated on the basis of need.
 2. Power should be given to qualified administrative authority to lay down rules, regulations, and requirements (both as to expendi- ture of fund and reorganization of existing machinery on which the grant may be conditioned
 3. All functions of local govern ment should be given consideration in any program of federal aid.

WARDEN ASSAILS
 CHEAP PUBLICITY

The cheap publicity given the occasional prison disturbances throughout the country In both press and movies was assailed by Warden Charles s. Reed as being most unfair, in his talk this noon before members of the Rotary club at the Hotel Elton.
 "In many good institutions the country over men are working to instill worthwhile ideas in the minds of the prisoner to fit him to once more attain a respectable po- sition in society,"" Warden Reed said. This is thetype of publicity that should be emphasized, he stated. g.s

  Minister of Interior Albert Sarraut, supreme police authority, who had reported ot the cabinet of his &C., tivities.
 Trotzky spent yesterday, last night and this morning writing steadily, halting only to eat fruit.
 Indicative of his constant fear of assassination, and in view of the disclosure of his whereabouts he ordered merchants to stop de- liveries to him.
 Instead, Trotzky's secretary chooses and himself carries food to the house.
 It was predicted that Trotzky might have great difficulty in find- ing a new home, as most European countries previously had refused to permit him even to cross their ter ritory on the way to another one.
 Now the revelation that he was planning a fourth internationale" to foment anarchy was expected tc lock doors not already locked against him.
 Trotzky came. to France from 'Prinkipo Island, off the Turkish coast, where he had been in exile, He was in need of medical treat ment, he said when he came here, and it was generally supposed that after being treated he had gone to Corsica. But Former Minister of Interior Camille Chautemps-since head of the government which was in office when the Stavusky bank ing scandals were exposed-gave him permission to live at Barbi- Zon.
 In it's official notification to Trotzky that he must leave the Paris region immediately, the French government explained that it prefers he get out of France within two weeks.
 With an eye to the new world as a permanent refuge, Trotzky's assistants telephoned and tele graphed all afternoon seeking tenn porary asylum in Switzerland or a Scandinavian country.
