EXTRA POLICEMEN
 DETAILED TO DUTY
Youngsters Are Warned of Vandalism Danger
 our Prank Reported

With Halloween tomorrow and many premature celebrations ex- pected tonight, police today em- phasized the warning that no dam aging of property or breach of the peace will be tolerated, and that offenders will be placed immedi- ately under arrest. At the same time, officials of utility companies issued warnings that interference with light, trolley or bus service is dangerous and may result in serious injury.
 The latter warning Is prompted by the fact that interference par ticularly with electric lights. may result in serious injury. Last night on Melrose avenue, mischievous youngsters covered a street light with a fruit basket. Light com pany workers pointed out that the lads were fortunate to escape elec- trocution. and that they would have suffered it had they attempt ed their prank" while the current was on.
 Also last night, Patrolman Dem his Carey arrested boy who was slashing tires of parked cars with a kitchen knife. His case will be disposed of in juvenile court. Superintendent Joseph H. Mo- Lean has made preparations for many extra policemen to be on duty tomorrow night. Funmaking will not be interfered with unless it passes the bounds of reason, but no lawbreaking will be allowed. Patrolmen have been told to place under arrest any persons, old or young. who may attempt to inflict damage on property.

POLICE PROBING SECOND BURGLARY
Naugatuck May Return Motor Patrol to Duty Fol-
 lowing Break"
(special to the Democrat )

Naugatuck, Oct 30.-Another break, the second major one here since the abolition of the police motor patrol, took place some time early this morning at the First Ma tional store at Highland and Good year avenues The burglary was not reported to Police Chief Adam son till this afternoon.
 Cigarettes valued at almost $50 and about $2 in cash were taken by the thieves, who made en- trance by forcing open the front door. The door was found forced when store employees arrived for work this morning No reason has been advanced for the delay in re- porting the burglary to police.
 Last week a gas station owned by Ray Melbourne was broken into and a large sum stolen. The thieves made a successful escape.
 The latest break will undoubted- ly win still more support for those who are urging Warden John Sheridan to place the motor patrol back on duty. He ordered 1t dis continued two weeks ago, claiming at the time that its efficiency was not high enough to warrant its be- ing kept in service.

Dr Conant, just past Al, succeed ed Dr A. Lawrence Lowell as presi- dent of Harvard more than a year ago.
 The present administration, 1t was charged, is grossly unfair to the faculty and places a premium upon nasty and trifling publica- tiOns" with which young men rush into print with a mere collection of facts, leaving them too little time to develop that breadth and fullness of character which are so much to be desired in the teach- er."
 ''The ideal of a scholar is a noble one," it continued, "but the ideal of man is nobler."
 Dr Chase recommended appoint ment of prominent American writ- CTS and artists to the Harvard faculty to promote "a truly Ameri- can culture" He would not con- fine the enjoyment of her sine cures ito third-rate foreign and expatriate literati."
 T would not.' Dr Hurd con tinued. make of Harvard Sum- day school. Rather I would make of 1t school for every day, ban ishing for ever that Puritan fal- lacy which make of ethics a de- partment separate from those of active life.
 "I would like to- see more de- veloped by teaching and personal influence at Harvard, the concept of a gentleman's code of honor in public as well as in private life, a sense of duty to the nation and to the world, like that which, in- formally and carelessly to all ap- pearances, yet with tremendous force, has for centuries been inc stilled in the best men of the great English universities"
 He pointed to Germany satiric- ally as an example of the "benefi- cient power of scholarship upon the life of country"
 Germany's scholars not only have failed to help in her long struggle with defeat and economic prostration, he said. "but some of them have even lent their support to the tyranny of a fanatic and chairlatan. I should prefer less scholarship and more courage"

Trial of the $10,000 civil action of Sadie Bartholomew, administra- trix of the estate of Walter Whit. taker, against the Chase Companies Inc. was started before Judge Miles F. McNiff in the common pleas court to-day. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the death of Walter who was 13 years old when he was electrocuted on a high tension wire owned by the Chase Com panies near Griggs street, May S0th.
 Before the evidence was pre- sented, Judge McNiff accompanied by counsel, visited the site of the fatality.
 The complaint says the boy, climbed the high 50 foot tower sup porting wires carrying 22,S00 volts. He started to descend when he fell and clutched at one of the wires, swinging onto another tension wire. He was killed when his body con tacted the wires.
 The complaint says the defen- dant owned and maintained the power lines supported by steel tow CTS for the purpose of supplying various factories in that locality, with electric current. A baseball field is adjacent to the tower and is used by boys in the neighbor- hood for play. The boy came along about 2:3O in the afternoon of May

GEO. M. COHAN DELIGHTED HIS
 OLD HOME TOWN
Town Hall Saw Broadway. Production - Quaint
 Stage Accessories

North Brookfield, Mass, Oct. 30 -(UP)--Main street was Broad- way last night when George M. Conan walked the boards oS the old Town Hall once more, as leading man in Eugene O'Neill's comedy success, "Ah, Wilderness!" Town folks and guests filled the 70-year- old auditorium for the actors dramatic return to the stage he trod as a boy of nine, and where he made his local vaudeville debut 40 years ago. With the same thea ter guild company that staged "Ah, Wilderness!" before New York and Boston audiences, Conan thrilled old cronies with his portrayal of the feature role.
 It being a one-night stand, seen cry and costumes were not shipped. There was back drop and some colonial furniture loaned by Mrs Helen B. Rowland of Summer street; tree limbs and a rowboat from a local pond for one scene; {; and three 1000-watt spotlights pro- vided a "steam effect" for water view. Costumes were suggested" The stage curtain, a gift of Cohan to the town, had been c freshly painted for the occasion ,and new drapes hung over all the hall win dows.
 Down in front row were Billy Burke, Tuffy Cotter, Johnny Howe, Pat Kane, and Mike Conroy, all of whom played on "Coughlin's dis turbers" baseball nine of which Cohan was coach and manager.
 They and many others in the au- dience remembered Conan when he played in amateur theatricals here at the age of nine. They re. membered his actor parents and his professional vaudeville ap< pearance here 40 years ago with ''the Four Cohans' (Jerry, Josie. Helen and George).
 For those who couldn't procure the $1 tickets for the show, a loud- speaker apparatus carried the lines of the play outside. After the show, Cohan sang medley of old- time songs written by himself. He also addressed the audience, rem iniscing on his boyhood days.

 Harvard Criticized
Article in College Paper Attacks Modification of
 Scholarship" By Young President

Cambridge, Mass, Oct 30.-(UP) The regime of Dr James B. Co., nant, youthful president of Har- yard, was attacked as a mere glorificatioh. of scholarship" at the expense of character in an article in the current issue of the Harvard critic.
 The article, purporting to voice the opinion of We Rebels and Protestants among the younger men," was written by pr Alton Hurd Chase, instructor in Greek and Latin and tutor in the division of ancient languages since 1928.
 "Dr Conant's. choice of paths through which he would lead Harvard to greatness seems un- timely and unwise," the article said.
 Ut is opening the way for the return of all those antiquated and narrow Bourbons who throug bout MT Lowelrs liberal regime have learned nothing and forgotten nothing"

AMERICANS GIVE
 UP THEIR FLIGHT

Calcutta, India, Oct 3O-(P)- John Fl. Wright and John Polando. Americans, today abandoned their effort to finish the England -Austra- lia airplane race in their Lambert monocoupe, Baby Ruth, smallest entrant in the event.
 A cracker cylinder caused the decision. The plane will be shipped back to the United States. A trial flight today convinced them they couldn't go on.
 Wright and Polando entered the handicap section and persisted in the race of formidable misadven- lures in continuing. They spent one night under an armed Persian guard when they landed unexpect- cdly at the mouth of the Euph- rates. Motor trouble dogged them all the way from England.

GREAT BRITAIN WITH JAPANESE
 IN NAVAL SCRAP
United States Is Alone Against Giving Equal-
 ity to NippOnese
By FREDERICK KUH

(COpyright 1884 by United Press)
 London, Oct 30.-(UP)-Amer- ican hope for unequivocal British support against Japanese demands for naval equality seemed quashed today.
 British naval delegates made 1t plain to the Americans at their meeting yesterday, 1t was learned, that they oppose Japan's demands for "global" allotment of naval tonnage as firmly as does the United States.
 But both Prime Minister Ram say Macdonald and Sir John Simon, foreign minister, it is known, showed decidedly more readiness than the United States to recognize the principle of Jap anese equality.
 CUnder a "globar' tonnage al- lotment a nation would be free to build ships of such size and class as it desired within specified total maximum of naval tons.)
 Practically, the United States seemed increasingly isolated.
 The Japanese have advised the British experts as to some techni- cal points of their demands with out giving the same information to the United States, and thereby have strengthened the American belief that they are eager to ad- vance their talks with the British while leaving the United States delegates in suspense.
 One point on which the Japan csc gave Britain information but has not given it to the United States concerned a plan for allo- cation of tonnage.
 Under this particular plan the global tonnage scheme would be modified so that battleships. air craft carriers and heavy cruisers would be limited almost exactly as to number and tonnage, while light cruisers, destroyers and submar- ines could be built as desired with in total tonnage agreement.
 The Japanese, 1t was learned, have hinted that if they were granted equality they would not actually build beyond a ratio of four tons to five tons each for America and, Britain. They were told in reply. it was said authorita- lively, that no such compromise would be acceptable.
 "The Japanese have let the cat out of the bag, and we are waiting to see the kittens," said an Amer ican to-day-meaning that the next move must come from Japan. It was expected the Japanese ana Americans would meet tomorrow. Then the Americans will see the British again.
