RUSSIA GIVES ADVICE

Moscow, March 29.--(UP)-- Russia urged on Great Britain to- day the absolute necessity of 6 treaty to guarantee the peace of eastern Europe, and argued that if Germany and Poland refused to adhere, 1t would be because they wanted war.
 Anthony Eden, British cabinet envoy, continued his talks with Maxim Litvinov, Russia's brilliant foreign minister. The privilege of an appointment to meet Josef stain, leader of the Soviet. was ac-
 There seemed no doubt from the tenor of the negotiations that the visit of Eden would mean cement ing relations between capitalist Britain and communist Russia on a firmer basis than they have been since the Bolshevik revolution.
 For the first time since the in auguration of the Soviet govern ment King Georges health was officially toasted on Russian soil last night.
 Litvinov, Eden's host at dinner, raised his wine glass and said:
 T drink the health of his ma jesty the king"
 Litvinov was as frank as diplo- mats can be in their public speeches when he spoke at the din- ner.
 Without mentioning Germany by name, Litvinov hinted to Eden that Germany menaces not only Russia but England, and he said that never since the World War had peace been menaced as 1t is now.
 Warsaw, March 29.--(UP)-An unchanged domestic and foreign policy was predicted today as Pre- mier Valery Slawek and his cab- inet ministers prepared to re-take the oath of office.
 Slawek succeeded Leon Koslow- ski on the occasion of the adoption of new constitution. He retained all the old ministers.
 London, March 29.-CUP)--- Adolf Hitler informed Sir John simon that Germany already has an air force stronger in point of numbers than Great Britain's. the Daily Mail diplomatic correspond ent reported today.

GIRL STUDENT IS
 MURDER ATTEMPT


 Tahlequah, okla, March 29-- (UP) - The extortion mystery which impelIed an overwrought girl student of Northeastern State Teachers college to shoot a class mate remained a mystery today. George Hing Slew, who came to the United States four years ago from Hong Kong, denied from his hospital bed that he wrote the notes which for days plagued Lois Thompson, 19 year old farm girl. Miss Thompson sat white faced and silent in jail, refusing to discuss the campus attack. Upset by note received Wednesday. Miss Thomp. son called Slew, registered ut the college as Daniel Shaw, from a classroom and pointed a gun at him. The youth fled and as he.ran Miss Thompson fired three times, screaming: T know ohe's oe of them and I'm going to kill him"
 Officers believed she "got the wrong man." Postal inspectors studied Ciew's handwriting along with other specimens in an effort to learnu who sent the notes. The extortionists demanded $3,000.. Miss Thompson's family is not wealthy. Slew is expected to re- cover.

 Several public utilities bills were rejected, among them provisions to abolish the charge by telephone companies for hand sets demand ing an accounting of pay station receipts and stipulating commission hearings be held in the municipali- ties were the complaints were is. sued rather than in the counties.
 Bills to revise the election laws and recommend direct primaries also were turned down.
 Other measures demanding im- mediate trials for criminals, abol- ishing the party levers on voting machines, and committing women convicted of crimes to the state farm rather than to jail, and broadening the powers of the state board of pardons were similarly treated.
 The Rev Ernest c. Carpenter, New Haven, acted as chaplain to- day, due to the death of the Rev Aver yesterday.

 The senate, early today passed q measure providing for defense against aircraft bombardments and the naval construction bill under which a giant 35,0O0-ton battleship will be built immediately.
 As for the diplomatic positions, 1t seems indisputable that the gov ernment feels further discussions along the line of the Berlin con- ference between Sir John simon and Adolf Hitler are impossible. It is felt that the entire basis of negotiation must be changed.
 The government intends to ask Great Britain frankly if 1t is go- ing to continue its isolationist pol icy as regards commitments on the continent, or Is ready to con sider adherence to security sys- tenn along with France.

 AllnGHd IOOf Receiver

Alleged Loot Receiver
 Lapatinsky, the alleged receiver of the stolen goods, is the witness who could not positively identify Ramonas as one of the two men who drove into the farm on the morning of March 9th, and stored the truck, filled with the loot, in the barn. It was brought out dur ing the hearing that Ramonas has and that the latter's picture was identified by Lapatinsky as one of the two men in the truck. Later, however. when Stasaitis was exon erated after questioning, Lapatin- sky identified Ramonas in person as one of the two. This morning he testified he was not sure that Ra- monas was the man.
 Exoncratcd RamOnas
 Sergeant Detective Henry John son testified that the other sus pect, Alishauskas. had denied that Ramonas was with him in the burglary and claimed instead that he had ben assisted by youth who had since joined the circus. The picture of Stasaitis Was brought into court at Judge Ed- ward Mascolo's request, and the re- semblance between the youth pic. tured and Ramonas was found to be remarkable one.
 Judge Edward Mascolo denied a motion for discharge, made on Attorney Hugh Gustaferri, but gave a two-week postponement to allow further investigation.
 Pleaded Guilty
 Alishauskas pleaded guilty to the three serious charges, and was found over under bonds of $4,000. Lapatinsky pleaded not guilty to charges of receiving stolen goods, but indicated he would testify for the state. He was bound over under bonds of $1,5OO.
 The Colonial-Beacon warehouse was broken into on March 9th. the thieves ripping off part of four inch plank roof and removing 57 tires and q quantity of accessories. A truck was then stolen and driven through the locked gates. Police claim that the truck and loot were stored at Lapatinsky's place after the crime. The next night, it is charged, the stolen goods were re- moved and left in the barn, and the truck was driven to Morris and abandoned there.t

ApproprIation Is Asked


 A $30,00O appropriation to be used by the State Planning Board for the next biennium is called for in bill which will be heard Thurs. day, April Il. before the appro- priation committee. the bill was in- troduced by Representative John D. Thoms of Waterbury. It is the duty of this board to survey pro- posed public works construction in the state that are to be carried out under FERA auspices. The above bill is necessary in view Of the fact that today the judiciary committee reported favorably to the Senate on bill continuing the life of the State Planning Board for two more years. The board was created by act of the l93S Legislature and would not be al- lowed to function for another two- year period. It is not believed that there will be opposition to this pro- posal. The bill referred to the ap- propriation committee became nec- essary when it was revealed that the one before the Judiciary com 1nittee carried no appropriation for the coming two years.
