 HOTEL DIRECTOR
Elton Manager Elected at Association Meeting in
 New Haven Yesterday

Hartford, April 8-Returning from the annual meeting of the Connecticut Hotel association at New Haven Sunday. at which he was reelected president, Willard B. Rogers, advertising director of the Bond Hotels, declared that it was the unanimous opinion of the 75 hotel owners and managers who attended the meeting, that unless a favorable bill is passed by the general assembly, practically every hotel in the state will be adversely affected.
 The Connecticut hotels, it was reported, are losing business to ho- tels in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New York state which are aid- ed by favorable legislation.
 One of the hotel operators from a small town, according to Mir Rogers, made a statement, "If ad- vocates of temperance realized how much they are contributing to in- temperance by continuing the pres ent policy they would unanimously favor granting to hotels the privil- ege of solving the liquor problem"
 Tn his annual report, Mir Rogers reported more than 100 per cent gain in membership and an excel- lent financial position.
 Other officers elected for the en- suing year were: Vice-president, r. c. Rogers of Putnam; treasurer Craig LaVin of New Haven; secre- tary Mildred l.. Burden, head of the industdial mailing bureau, Hartford; national counselor Will liam H. Hunt Bridgeport; associate national counselor, Harvey Ham, bur of Stamford; directors, Frank c.

Akinson of the Kings bench division,
delivering Judgment today in the long

was satisfied that in November and
December, 1927, there was an action
able conspiracy to obtain Chrysler
shares at a price lower than their

He did not, however, complete the
deliverance of judgment in the suit
brought against Walter P. Chrysler,

certain associates, adjourning court
for the day with his judgment still un-

He said the actionable conspiracy
was limited to Bernard E. Hutchinson,
Stephen D. Briggs and Joseph Fields
of the Chrysler Corp.
The Judge said the reputation of
an agreement made in December, 1927,
for the purchase of shares was with

soever, either legal or moral, and was
thoroughly dishonest.
He severly criticized Chrysler him.

ITALIANS CLOSE IN
ON RAILWAY LINE
Two More Towns Reported
Taken in Advance
From South.
BY the Associated Press.

Italy's southern army. under the
command of Gen. Rudolfo GRAHAM,
pushed menacingly today toward Eth
iopias life line"-the railroad from
Adds Ababa to Djibouti, French So
maitland seaport.
Dispatches to Rome said Graziani's
forces occupied Sasa Baneh in week
end drive and held Daggah Bur with
advance patrols.
In occupying Sasa Baneh the Ital-
ians have crossed more than half the
desert region lying between Italian
Somaliland and the provincial capital
of Harar.
Warriors Defend Railway.
Sasa Baneh is 100 miles from Jijiga
and less than $50 miles from the rail-
road. Defending the railroad and
Harar is vast concentration of Halle
Selassie's warriors about Jijiga
Daggah Bur, reported held by the
advance patrols, is 80 miles on to-
ward Jijiga.
An unconfirmed italian press dis
patch from Dlibouti said Ras NaSsibu,
one of Emperor SelaSsie's chief aides
in the southern-southeastern sector,
was killed when his troops revolted in
the engagement at Sas Baneh.
The last report of Nassibus where
abouts available in Adds Ababa said
the commander was in the neighbor-
hood of Harar, rallying his forces for
stand against the Italians when
they reached the plateaus at the edge
of the desert
Occupation Is Denied.
The Ethiopian government officially
denied Graziani'S troops had occu-
pied Sasa Baneh. AS evidence of the
scarcity of communications from the
front in Adds Ababa. the government
made no further comment except to
deny the town had been taken.
From Sasa Baneh on to Harar
and Jijiga, Graziani's forces were
faced with a more difficult terrain;
the deserts end brings a succession
of steep cliffs, high plateaus and
mountains.
Graziani's campaign, carried on
without the fanfare of the Italian
drive in the north, has been much
more successful. In the north. a
much larger army has pushed only
about rs or 80 miles into the interior,
and without any resistance from the
Ethiopians.
However, determined stand
against the northern army appeared
in the making.
Adds Ababa reports said Ras Kassa
was joining Ras Seyoum, governor
of Tigre province, with 100000 war
rlors. Seyoum, at last report, had
