DECISION BRINGS ON
NEW COMPLICATION

ATHENS, Greece. March IL
(UP)-The Greek government,
surrendering to the amazing re-
sistence of Samuel insult, fugitive
Chicago financier, against efforts
to deport him to America, today
agreed to give him travelling pa
pers and let him sail away on the
steamer Maiotis.
The governments decision in
the complicated international sit
uation was materially influenced
by strong public opinion, which
had viewed insults battles for
liberty with admiration.
The 74-year-old Chicago fugi-
tive today was aboard the little
Greek cargo steamer Maiotis,
chugging her sluggish way back
across the blue Mediterranean sea
to Piraeus, port of Athens. recall
ed from voyage toward a haven
in Africa.
Insults fantastic dash for free
dom in the chartered freighter
was halted when his scheme TO-
outwit Geek and United States au-
thorities seeking to return him to
America to face charges of fraud
was discovered by the secret po-
lice. insult had sailed from Pirac-
us on Wednesday night, under
cover of darkness, after fleeing
from Athens by motor car, leav-
ing his wife and encourage be-
hind.
The ship, with papers cleared
for Port Said, Egypt. planned to
carry him through the Suez Ca
nal. down the Red sea to haven,
believed to have been arranged by
the silver-haired millionaire in the
dusky kingdom of Abyssinia.
Threats by wireless cracked thru
the air as the Greek government
warned the captain he would have
to assume responsibility if insult
gained Africa and freedom.
Ignoring the threats at first, the
master finally was inundated by
further warnings that destroyer
would overtake him and halt his
voyage, and put back for Pireaus.
where the Maiotis was due about
noon today.
The government yesterday had
tentatively decided to place insult
and his wife on board the liner
Aquitania next Tuesday.
The authorities indicated insult
was being brought back under ar
rest chiefly to prove to the Unit
ed States that Greece is eager to
comply with Washington's re-
quest that insult be expelled. New

will be permitted to proceed any

CWA Grant Insures
Completion Of Golf

Officials of the Hendersonville
Golf and Country club are feel.
ing optimistic over the approval
by the CWA of their last appli
cation for an appropriation fol
fairway seeds and fertilizer ant
for stolons for the greens.
A large crew of CWA laborer:
have been kept on the golf course
for the past few months in pre-
pairing the last nine holes for the
planting of seeds. Gratifying
progress has been made on the
golf course. Grounds are prepared
and the officials are ready TO,
planting.
The project as originally ap'
proved by CWA officials did no.
provide for seeds, fertilizers ano
stolons.
Local officials who desired to
do the planting at once and to
eliminate the time required In
submitting bids and obtaining
their approval, obtained bids and
sent them to Raleigh yesterday
by Harry E. Buchanan. who, &C:
cording to a telegram received
today, will bring back authority
to proceed with purchases OF
seeds, fertilizer and stolons to
the value of $1,000.
Approval has also been OBJ.

and dance hall and quarters for a
professional and his golf supplies.
DIR. ]. G. Bennett, chairman of
the board of governors of the
Country club, said today that the
action of CWA authorities re-
moved the last vestige of doubt
that the second nine holes of the
golf course might not be complet-
ed this year because of lack of
funds.
Seeds for the nine fairways re-
naming to be completed have ar
rived and fertilizer and stolons
also have been provided for, it
was said. which means that plant
ing will start probably by the first
of April and proceed until the
work is completed. 1t is antici-
pated that at least three addi-
tional fairways and greens, and
perhaps all, will be ready for play
in July. The Country club has a
nursery from which part of the
stolons will be secured for the
greens. =,
The CWA grant, which in all
will amount to approximately ST.
500, most of which will be spent
for labor, will enable the Country
club to buy machinery and other
equipment that will be needed to
keep the course in first-class con
dition after it is completed. The
course. it is agreed generally, will
be the largest single attraction
for tourists and as such is expect.

When fully developed it will be

WASHINGTON, March II. =
(UP).-Colonel Charles A. Lind
bergh and Clarence Chamberlin,
two of the nations most distin-
guished airmen, appeared before
the senate postoffice committee
yesterday to give their assistance
on a bill to restore flying the
mail to private operators. 80
Chambe1lin defended cancella-
ton of airmail contracts, and
charged that some commercial
passenger lines used inferior
planes at times because of inter-
locking ownership with manufac-
turing units. He named as lines
which at times used inferior
planes when superior ships were
available, the United Air Lines
and Eastern Air Transport. Uni
ted, he pointed out is controlled
bv United Aircraft. Eastern is
owned by Northern American
Aviation.
"At certain times, they have
operated planes built by associat-
ed companies that did not con-
slider suitable, or as safe as 9TH
ers available, for passenger
work." he testified. "Independ-
ent companies had to manufac-
ture a plane far superior to any
thing produced by the associated
companies in order to sell their

GOOD AFTERNOON

might try doing something in his
spare time, to make ends meet.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-11-06

elections was the strength of the socialist party which both major parties feel certain will account for a decisive vote in Fairfield county. There was fear the socialists would cut deeply into returns from the small towns, most of which have been republican, and hold the bal- ance of power in the final account ing
 There also was expected to be an unprecedented number of split ballots.
 Fears For Walcott
 The fate of U. S. Senator Fred erick c. Walcott, republican, was cause or considerable speculation. He is opposed by Representative Francis T. Maloney, an ardent New Deal supporter and advocate of the cash bonus.
 Walcott, on the "black list or the American Federation Of La bor, last week was indorsed by J. Nicholas Dang, president of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, as was the entire republican ticket: This action led to suspension or Dang by the Federation's execu- tive committee, which assigned Danz's support as not representa- tive of the labor group.
 The third district congressional race between Major James A. Shanley, democrat. and Joseph. F. Morrissey, republican, was another uncertain factor. Four years ago Shanley almost upset former Con- gressman John 0. Tilson. There Is considerable democratic senti- ment in that district.
 Governor Race Close
 The gubernatorial race was ex- pected to be as close as two years ago when Governor Wilbur l.. Cross squeezed ahead of Connects cuts former flying governor. John H. Trumbull. by 10000 votes us the state swung it's support 10 Hoover on the national ticket. Both candidates are running on almost identical platforms involv-- ing liquor, milk. governmental economy, old age pension and re- lief issues. Governor Cross wes the only democrat to survive his ticket during the last four years. Republicans were conceded their customary majority in the state house of representatives. In the senate, where democrats ruled by majority of one last session. there was agaoin uncertainty. A fourth party, independent cit- izens, was not expected to make great inroads. The guiding spirit in this faction Is Professor Albert Levitt, former independent repuh- lican candidate for governor, spe- cial assistant attorney general and now a candidate for congress from the fourth district. opposing the in- cumbent. Schuyler Merritt, repub- lican, and Edward T. Buckingham. former democratic mayor O. Bridgeport.
 Weather Democratic
 The weather was "democratic.' It started raining shortly after the polls opened and the prospects were far from clearing. Despite this, Mrs Lucy A. Woodworth, 10l, and blind, voted at Middletown by absentee ballot. Governor Cross and his opponent, Hugh M. Alcort. were among early arrivals at their home town voting places at New Heven and Suffield respectively.
 The governor and Alcorn met last night at a prison board ses- sion, smiled amiably and the gov ernor greeted the Hartford county states attorney with a wave of the hand as he appeared to present his cases.
