 | At a meeting of the Waterbury | YMCA Chess club last evening, it
 was voted to change the policy that has been followed for eight years in the conduct of the city | championship chess tournament. | ITnrofnfnrn O rnhiy1 ment was started in the fall and ended in the spring, the winner
 being declared the champion of the city. Since there are now two or ganizations conducting Chess tour naments, it was thought advisable to make a new start inviting all
 chess players in the city to parti- cipate in the tournament who feel they have any. chance of winning.
 The tournament Is to open on Sat urday, March 10th at 200 o'clock. All entries must be made to Char les J. Velte at the YMCA on or
 before that time. An entry fee of
 soc will be required in advance.

 basis to begin with and the re-
 maining four players will play a
 round robin for the city champion
 ship.
 The Y chess team is to compete
 this week in Bridgeport in the In- ter-City tournament. Waterbury
 stands a very good chance of win
 ming the tournament in this section and will no doubt be matched with the winners in the northern sec tion of the state. The individual
 state championship will start in Waterbury on Good Friday and
 will probably end in the Endee club in Bristol, the day following. Waterbury men interested in this tournament are Nathan Cornell,
 last years dity champion; George Cashman, Fred Strong, Fred Nor
 ling and Nicholas Be.lome.

GOLD BOOTLEGGING is
NEW FEDERAL WORRY
Huge Profit Realized in Exporting
Precious Metal.
By United Press

By United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The boot
Logging of gold threatens to replace
the bootlegging of liquor. An arrest
has just been made on the Cana
dian border, which is believed to
indicate that gold smugglers re-
Gently have carried 100000 worth
of the precious metal out of the
United States. The situation of the
gold price is unique in history, and
threatens to develop countless boot
leggers of the yellow metal in
foreign countries, experts say.
Under the present law the assay
offices and the minis can not pay
more than $2067 an ounce for gold,
while the reconstruction finance
corporation is buying gold daily for
almost twice this price, that is
newly mined gold. Secondary gold
recovered from old gold and scrap
Is not purchased by the government
at this higher price, and actually is
Quitting the market. The gold in
both cases has exactly the same
purity and is "as good as gold" But
bootlegging this secondary gold
into foreign countries where an
open gold market exists, an enor-
nous profit is realized which makes
the old fashioned bootlegging of
liquor seem trif1ing by comparison.

WeII-KnoWn Boxer Hunted
in Connection With Hit
Run Accident.

Several police squads today we're
searching for Tracy Cox, prominent
junior welterweight boxer, for ques-
tioning in connection with a hit
and-run accident in which two per-
sons were injured early today.
The accident occurred on Thrift
eth street near Sherman drive.
Those injured were James Coils,
%, Fl. Benjamin Harrison, who suf-
fered head and thigh injuries, and
Miss Thelma Griffin, 1909 East
Thirtieth street, injured on the arm.
Coils and Miss Griffin were cross
ing the street with two other pedes-
TRANS. They were treated at city
hospital.
Police were told the car which
struck the couple, hurting Coils
several feet, was a 1882 model yell
low Auburn speedSter. Recalling
that Cox drives a similar car, Off
GERS started a search, finding Cox
car in the garage of his manager,
Bert E. Runner, 1921 North Harding
street.
Officers who found the car said
headlights on the car were dam
aged. They were informed the car
had been placed in the garage a
short time after the hit-and-run
accident.
Several hours after the accident,
police took Miss Viva Clarke, %, of
1922 Stuart street, and Eldrad Cor
trecht, 81, of 2727 Station street, to
headquarters for questioning.
Miss Clarke said she and Cox met
last night in a restaurant near her
home. According to police, she as
serted she and Cox and Cortrecht
had some drinks, consuming two
pints of alcohol during the party,
and then they went for a ride.
Officers said Miss Clarke said she
was intoxicated and remembers
nothing of the accident, but that she
recalls being with Cox when he
placed his car in Runners garage.
She said she was taken home by
Cox in a taxi
Cortrecht, who police said denied
the car was in an accident, was
slated on vagrancy charges. Miss
Clarke was not held.

Within Week.
By United Press

By United Press

ministration's liquor tax bill, passed
yesterday by the house, will come
before the senate early next week
with Democratic leaders pressing for
early action,
Majority Leader Joseph T. Robin
son Dem, Ark, said today the
bill would be brought up Monday or
Tuesday.
No committee hearings will be
necessary in the senate. Debate will
take longer than in the house, where
only five voted against the bill, but
senate leaders hope to pass it within
a week.
The measure, imposing a tax of
81 a gallon on whisky, SIS a barrel
on beer and lower taxes on wines,
is expected to raise $550,000,00 a
year in new taxes.
Farm Bill Worked On
While the administration is driv-
ing the liquor tax bill through as
its first important measure, other
matters will occupy the senate as
it settles into stride next week.
The administration farm credit
bill, framed by the farm credit adj
ministration to make it's bonds more
attractive to investors, is being put
in form for early consideration by
the banking and currency commit
tee.
Also, the st. Lawrence waterway
treaty may come up next week for
ratification.
White House messages on recipro-
cal tariff agreements and war debts
soon will start activity in another
quarter.

discussions. He favors withholding
favorS to nations which are in de-
fault, using the weapon of economic
advantage to collect the omunts due,
Wants War Debts Data
Mr.. Borah, author of resolution
requesting the treasury department
to supply information regarding the
amounts in default, wants tc
ascertain also the attitude of this
government regarding the debts
This situation will be clarified after
receipt of the Presidents message
on the subject.
Silver legislation continues as c
controversial issue. Senator Robin
son has said that in his opinion
there will be no silver legislation
at the present session. Senators in
the silver bloc, including Mr.. Borah
are arguing that monetization Of
this metal is more essential than
ever now that the budget, with its
account of a prospective public debt
in excess of $30O00,000 900 has beer
revealed.
War debts and silver undoubtedly
will be worked into senate discus.
Sions of the treasury deficit, with
advocates of action in these two
fields arguing that they offer ar
opportunity to shave down the
deficit to less alarming proportions.

reasonable efforts" to encourage
their nonmember neighbors to do
the same.
The objects of the strike. Don G..
Geyer, general manager of the Pure
MIX Association said, are threefold:
l. To drive out of business cut
rate dairy companies, designated as
"chiselers" by the farm leaders.
These companies buy milk from I'M
organized farmers.
2. To prevent participation, by
the companies buying supplies from
the association, in a price war that
would drive down farmers returns
for milk.
3. To force the federal admin
istration to step in and make
renewed effort to carry out its
promises made to producers and
distributors when a milk marketing
code was signed last August. This
code was abandoned Jan. /.
Demands Fair Play
What We are demanding" Mr.
Geyer said, is fair play. We are
not trying to soak the consumer
The federal government pledged to
increase the returns to the farmers
and our agreement was based on a
belief that the prices set were fair.
But the chiseler companies have
seeped in. They def1ed the govern
ment and got away with it. Our
membership has given these CHS
elers every chance. We propose to
protect our prices before these
companies force a reduction to
ruinous levels"
The present price paid members
Of the association is s2.10 hundred
for milk sold to consumers as whole
fluid and s145 a hundred for that
consumed as cream. Distributors
proposed a reduction of 20 cents a
hundred to meet independent COM
petition.
