 Was Under Suspicion
 Apparently under suspicion for some time by Waterbury detec- tives, Mario was arrested yester- day at the Stag hotel on Bank street by Patrolmen Fred Hickey and Patrick Moylan of the vice squad on a warrant charging him with assaulting Salvatore Cocchi- ola while the latter was seated in his car. It became evident that the assault was not the onl! crime attributed to Mario wher the bonds were fixed at $5,000. IT city court this morning, Judge Ed ward Mascolo continued the cast for a day and, at the request oi the state, allowed bail to stand at the high figure.
 Lived At Fire Scene
 Mario, who formerly worked 1T a florist shop here. was a resident of the Center street apartment house which was gutted by fire { few n,onths ago. The blaze start ed in an apartment shared by hin with another man, and after th' fire there was evidence that a care game had been in progress in tht apartment.

.2,OOO WORKERS IN
 MASS. QUIT JOBS

Salem, Mass, Aug. 13.-UP)- A bout 1000 operatives of the Sa- lem and Peabody plants of the Pequot Mills, largest sheeting manufacturing company in the nation, went on strike to-day.
 To forestall possible repetition of violence which marked q walk out here two years ago, heavy police guard was posted at both plants.
 The strike followed expiration of a two-year contract with the company. Mill executives refused to accede to new demands for a 25 per cent wage increase, elimin- a.ion of the stretch out, senior ity rule, a closed shop, removal of efficiency experts, and collection of union dues by the company through a check-off system.
 The mills affected are the Pe- quot here and the Danvers Bleach cry in Peabody.
 The operatives, members of the Independent Sheeting Workers of America, voted overwhelmingly last night to strike.
 The company decided against the use of strike breakers. This resulted in a near shutdown at Peabody, while the Salem plant op' erated only few machines with a skeleton crew.

 TOLD TO LAWYER

Baltimore, Md, Aug 13-(U.P) The story of the 1916 prepared ness day parade bombing in San Francisco was retold from a wheel chair in Baltimore City hospital to- day when attorneys for Tom Mooney and the state of Califor- mia took a deposition from one Of the principal witnesses in the or- iginal Mooney Warren Billings trial. Now aged and i'll, John Mac Donald who first identified the two suspects as present at the site of the fatal bombing and linked them with the mysterious satchel believ- ed to have contained the bomb, was questioned before a referee about the points of his testimony which he has since repudiated.
 MacDonald's revised evidence and that of other witnesses will be presented at California supreme court hearing on a writ of habeas corpus sought by Mooney in his lates fight for freedom. A. E.. Shaw, San Francisco represented the state of California. John Finnerty of Washington and George P. Da- wis of San Francisco represented Mooney. First questions to Mac Donald indicated that he would re- peat the repudiation he made in 1880 of tn etestimony he gave at the original trila. Referee Shaw said taking of the deposition might require from a day to a week. Ac- cording to MacDonald's repudiation he never saw Mooney until the police took me to a row of cells and pointed him out to me-

the association's spokesman, pr. Morris Fishbein, was talking about something of which he was utterly ignorant.
 Called Him Faker
 Dr. Fishbein, editor of the Jour nal of the American Medical as- sociaton. in which the threatened expose will appear this week, called Willard "a faker pure and simple" His claim of freezing revivification experiments having been successfully applied to u Rhesus monkey are pure poppy cock the editor said. He charged that Willard, never a physician, was arrested in California in May. 1893, for practicing medicine with out a license, was fined $500 and given 150 days in jail.
 Neat Trick With Monkey
 The monkey trick obably was achieved by neat trick of substitution which any magician could perform" he said. Willard in California, where he has con- tracted with stephen Simkhovitch, 34-year-old scenario writer, for
 
 the human freezing experiment. said Dr. Fishbein's suspicion of magic was 'unkind, to say the least" He denied having lived ir Kansas City in 1927 under the name of Raphael Napeolonovitch Ludomirsky. as charged by Fish bein, but admitted he faced charges in California in May, 1888
 Preposterous

Tt is preposterous," he said About so per cent of the body issue is made up of water. Wher it is frozen 1t is thrown out ir 1 specialization form.

RESOLUTION IS
 PASSED IN MASS. AGAINST NAYS
DeplOres Present COndi-
 ti0ns in That Country; ItMay Be Ignored

Boston, August IS - (UP) - The Massachusetts house resolu- tion condemning alleged German religious persecution will be brought to the attention of the German ambassador for action. terming the resolution. passed without debate yesterday, "impolite and discourteous," Baron Kurt Won Tippelskirch, consul-general of the third reich, said he would inform Ambassador Hans Luther of the matter. He felt the ligeslature would be better occupied with local problems than with international affairs. The resolution, sponsored by Representatives Morris, demo- crat, Everett, and Dorgan, demo- crat, Boston, read:
 ''Whereas, 1t is reliably reported that certain inhabitants of Ger many are being persecuted on acc count of their religious faith and nationality to an extent abhorrent to modern civilized nations, there- for bet 1t
 Resolved, that the house of rep resentatives of the general court of Massachusetts affirms its convinc- ton and belief that freedom and equality of mankind, regardless of race, creed or color, is indispens- able to the maintenance of any modern civilization and views with alarm any violation of these sacred principles"
 May Ignore It
 Washington, August 1S = (UP) F- The German embassy Is expect ed to ignore resolution adopted by the Massachusetts legislature de- ploring the attitude of the German government toward religious free dom.
 The embassy withheld comment today, but an authoritative quarter indicated no protest would be filed. Experts pointed out that the action differed from the recent vio- lation of the Nazi flag which de- monstrators tore from the liner Bremen in New York harbor. AS no direct affront was made to Ger many in the resolution, which merely expressed an opinion, It was indicated the Germans could ignore the action under interna- tional precedent, if they so chose
