Murderers
 Under Heauy Guard
(Continued from Page II

shortly before 10 a. m., but due to a conference in Judge Nelson P. Browns chamber proceedings did not get underway until nearly 40 minutes later.
 Murton and Faber wore black overcoats, with collars turned up to protect themselves against q raw wind. They left the collars up throughout the proceedings. Irving wore brown overcoat.
 All three appeared Dallid ex. cept for noses and ears made red by the cold.
 Murton sat in the middle of the prisoners cage, with Irving at his right and Faber at his left. They uhatted and smiled, and there an. peared no hard feelings between them. Murton and Faber chewed gum.
 The prisoners stood as Clerk of Court Robert w. Worthington read the five indictments against each man. The indictments charg- ed:
 l. First degree murder of Patrolman Forbes A. Mcleod.
 2. First degree murder of Patrolman Frank o. Paddock.
 3. Assault with intent to mur- der Walter Bartholomew, elderly vault-tender at the Needham Trust company.
 4. Assault with intent to mur- der Fireman Timothy J. Coughlin, who was wounded by machine-gun bullets while the Needham bank bandits were making their escape.
 5. Armed robbery.
 To each indictment. Murton pleaded in a slow, distinct voice, Not guilty"
 Faber did likewise, but after the reading of each indictment in Irv- ing's case, the younger Millen brother used the more formal, II am not guilty"
 No request for a change of venue was made, but after the pleas, the attorneys moved in behalf of all three defendants for a delay in the trial (now set for March 26) on the ground that:
 1. They had insufficient time to prepare the cases for trial.
 2. The sanity or insanity of the defendants could not be determin- ed until records were received from Russia regarding the ances- trial history of the defendants.
 "a. Sensational new wspap stories have so .perjudiced the minds of the people of Norfolk county that q fair trial at this time is impossible.
 Mackusick disclosed that George Stanley Harvey, former district at- torney of Middlesex county, will become senior counsel for the Mill lenu brothers, while he (Mack usick) will be associated with Har- vey.

Dullest Market in Many Days at the Short Session
|CWA WORK PERIOD
 TERMINATES APR. 1
Municipal Financial Aid May Be Necessary to
 Complete Projects

All local public projects now being carried out by the use of CWA workers will have to be con- tinued after March 31 partially through the aid of expenditures from the municipal treasury under present orders from Washington, D. C. The CW9A forces must all end their work by March 31st and beginning April 1st only FRA funds will be available for such work.
 The FRA regulations provide only that the government shall pay one-third of the cost of public projects. This means that any water main work and activities of similar nature being pushed here must be finished three weeks from to-day or else the city will have to pay two-thirds of the cost with the remaining one-third coming from the FRA.
 Waterbury, like any other city in the state, is unable to meet this demand. If the city should have to expend this money in order to take care of the unemployed when the CWA collapses, an in- crease of about five mills would be necessary, it is estimated. The Mutual Aid here, therefore, is ex- pected to fill in the gap and Mutual Aid men will be used on the CWA projects not completed by the end of the three-week period.
 All CWA. forces here must be demobilized by March 31st. This was the definite order in the hands of local CWA Administrator Will liam M. Harris this morning. It was originally planned to continue the CWA to May 1st. The resump- tion of the Mutual Aid collection April 1st will take care of the return of many men to this re- lief organization following the au- tomatic 1ayoff from the CWA. In the meantime the president and his advisers plan to continue their drive on the nations employers to put their shoulders to the wheel and increase employment in pri- vate business and industry,

Effects Of DeuaLued Dollar On Commerce
Competitive Advantages Not Permanent - Country
 Must GO Further in Sweeping Excessive Barriers

New York, March 1O.-The com petitive advantages now enjoyed by American exporters that are due to the cheapening of the dollar cannot be depended on to continue indefinitely, states the Guaranty Trust company of New York in it's review of business and financial conditions in the United States and abroad.
 And if the recovery program of the United States is designed to &C., complish what it's name implies, the Survey points out, the next step may well be reexamination of for eign trade policy with a view to sweeping away some of the exces. sive barriers, at home as well as abroad, that now restrict the de- of American business.
 While the main consideration in devaluing the dollar, was, of course, the stimuation of domestic indus try and commerce, foreign trade is a branch of business that should be most directly affected by such action. In fact, the rise in domcs- tic prices that the act of devalua- tion is designed to bring about should take place partly as a re- suit of shifts in foreign trade duo to the chcapening of the dollar; and the subject is daily becoming more important to business men generally.
 The broad relation between de- valuation and foreign trade is very simple. ,Devaluation of nations money cheapens that money in terms of foreign currencies and consequently cheapens that nations goods in terms of foreign goods. It makes it less costly for foreigners to import goods from the nation that deva1ues it's currency and more expensive for that nation to import goods from abroad. In this way, it stimulates the export trade, and restricts the impor. trade of the devaluing nation. These effects on exports aud imports are temporary. They continue only un- til the alteration in exchange rates Is offset by changes in price and wage levels.
 The mere fact of relative stabil- ization is, of course, a favorable element in the outlook for foreign trade. For the first time since last March, the dollar has a definite and tangible value. Even this fac- tor, however, Is subject to several qualifications. The government still has authority to make further changes in the god content of the dollar and has given some indica-

CUBA IS FILLED WITH STRIKESOF
 ALL THE TRADES
President Says If They Want Trouble He Will
 Give It to Them

Havana, March 10-(UP)-New strikes in direct defiance of the government were started today. President Carlos Mendieta, sens- ing the possibility of a revolution ary uprising, issued 8 decree by which unions of men who remain on strike would be dissolved.
 1cemen, milkmen, brewery work CTS, commercial employees, barbers started q 48-hour strike today, joining workers in half a dozen lines of activity who, though in some cases basing their strikes on economic problems, really are pro- testing against government decrees banning unauthorized walkouts.
 A presidential decree provided thatSunions of men who remained on strike after midnight tonight would be dissolved, and that all contracts with companies employ ing them would be voided.
 Mendieta and his cabinet mem- bers met almost constantly with representatives of strikers and em- ployers.
 T do not seek blood" Mendieta tolQ the Onlteu IreSS as ne leLL strike conference early today. "I fought against blood. But the re- public is above all things. It shall be defended at any cost. If the men trying to foment 8 general strike want a clash they shall have it."
 Government leaders asserted that the mass of workers wanted to stay at their jobs but that rad ical leaders were fomenting 8 gen. .eral strike which they hoped would develop into revolution. as was the case when Gerardo Maehada was overthrown last summer.
 Mendieta impressed troops to unload newsprint from a steamship last night, and there was prospect that one newspaper would be pub lished Sunday-the first in week.

. A habit of never taking. things too seriously and all abiitty to always laugh at university is Ben triee Li1lies philosophy.
 Lady Peel---or Beatrice Lillie, as she insists upon being known Professionally, found no rose strewn path awaiting her when she de. cided upon stage career. In fact, she had less good luck than most persons who essay career before the footlights. She was not beaut- iful, to start with. always q handi- cap for youngster seeking to break into! the theatrical profess i. sion. And her idea of dramatic acting was not the conventional one.
 Miss Lillie struggled along, getting a small part now and then to buoy her hopes and keep her going. But, as she admits now, the going was pretty rough. But she kept laughing and and try ing.
 Then Andre Chariot. famous for his spectacular reyues, gave her q chance in one of his musical shows. Her debut was not suspicious When her number went one. all the theatre lights went out anf stayed out until her act was ov- CT. The audience applauded when the lights came on again and she thought thew wefe applauding her.
 That marked her first step to- | ward the international fame that she now enjoys. She was given I.larger parts in Chariot 's- produc- tions, and other producers began to bid for her services. She be- came star.
 Then eshe met and married Sir Robert Peel, fifth baronet of Great Britain. She retired from the stage for two years. but the old fascina- 1 tion of the foothghts again claim ed her.
 Now, she is conquering new worlds She is in pictures. Her first Fox Movietone, the hilarious musical farce. Are you There?' opens Sunday at the Dream Theat- re.
 Hamilton MacFadden. who dir. ected. surrounded Miss Lillie with an all star cast for her debut, the principals including John Gar trick, Olga Baelanova. Lloyd Ham,. ilton, George Grissmith. Jillam Sand and Gustav von Seyfiertitz.
