Unusual Accidents m 1luo Suburban 7oluns
Through Foot-Anthony. Calabrese of Woodbury Hurt When Tractor Fell Over on Him

Victims of two unusual accidents in suburban towns were in serious condition at Waterbury hospital this afternoon. The pair are John Aranauskas, 40, whose home is in the Milfville section of Naugatuck, while the other is Anthony Gala brese, 42, of R. F. D. No 2, Wood bury. .
 Aranauskas, woodchopper, sent the blade of an axe through his left foot, severing several tendons. He lost a considerable quantity of blood before he arrived at the hos ptial, where he was taken by fel- 
 Calabrese, a Woodbury farm worker, was working alongside a tractor when the machine toppled over on him. Extricated only with difficulty, he was rushed, to Wa terbury hospital in that institution: ambulance after receiving nediea attenti1ml af the scene. He sufferei a fractnfeds pefsiSfya other ser ious internal injuries.
 |s The Woodbnry man is the more seriously injured of the two. al though the large quantity of blood lost by Arnauskas makes his con- dition grave. The axe he was welding went almost completely through his foot, and his screams brought fellow wood-choppers rushing to the scene to aid him. It is believed that the axe he was using struck .an overhanging branch, changing the direction of the blow and sending the axe-blade into his foot.
 The tractor which fell on Gala brese was apparently at balance, but without wafning it fell over. trapping the farmland beneath it.

FOR STOCK REPORTS
Member Of Securities Commission
Declares Brokers Objections
Not Well Founded.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, November 13-
James M. Lands, member Of the Ma
tional Securities Commission, today re-
iterated his demand that stock and
security corporations be compelled to
make periodic reports of their activi-
ties.
Outlining the set-up and aims of the
Federal Security & Stock Exchange
Commission in an address before the
National Association of Securities
Commissioners meeting here, Lands
said:
Considerable objection has been
made to this type of report, but ! do
not consider it well founded.
"The chief reason for the objection
lies IN the apparent belief Of corpora
tions that competitors may derive from
these reports information that will be
harmful to them and beneficial to
their rivals"
Lands said the Federal Control
Commission will endeavor to clamp
down on certain practices, particu-
larly 'over- transactions
and deals carried on by long distance
