(CoDtinued from Page 1.) so that the democrats of the house and senate will caucus on Tuesday to assume a definite stand an old age pension legislation and the fi- nance committee of the legislature. of which Senator George T. Gull hane of this city is member, will meet in executive session at 10:30 o'clock Tuesday morning in at- tempt to iron out difficulties.
 All Would Suafer.
 Every city and town in the state will suffer the loss of income from personal taxes when the old age pension act goes into effect. It is estimated that the $3 head tax will bring in approximately $2,- 100000 throughout the state as a whole. The $3 tax would be levied next January 1st. The state then will levy against each city and town for the amount income esti- mated as due to come from the communities.
 Waterbury's Share.
 waterbury's share of the old age pension contribution to the state will be about $6O.000. Just what will be done with the personal tax collector offices in the various cit- ies and towns remains to be seen. It is likely that Personal Tax Col. lector George Stokes of this city will merely swing over from the work of collecting personal taxes to the task of collecting the new old age pension head tax.

 "There's been stabbing. You'd better come quick!"
 So upset was the woman that she was unable to lead him to the scene of the crime, but a few min- utes later Ruth saw a light in tho Brown apartment and peered through a window.
 Witnessed Stabblng
 Mrs. Glynn was questioned. She admitted she had witnessed tne stabbing but insisted she did not know who wielded the knife. The st tory she told, however, led to a search for Mrs. Seward, who was found in nearby lunchroom where she had just eaten slice of cream pie.
 Only when police visited t h c apartment did Clarence Brown, 7B, the victims father, awake. He had slept through the tragic scene en- acted only few yards from his bedside.
 Has Police Record
 Mrs. Seward, who gave her age at AZ, is also known as Grace Goodridge. Authorities said she had a police record dating from the age of 15 when she was ar. rested as a stubborn child. She had been arrested 1e times, they said.
 Police said they learned thht Mrs. Seward visited Brown in h's apartment last night and that the killing followed. . quarrel ever "taoney inatters.s

Guaranteeing Austria's In e. pendence in a treaty which will have a protocol binding the sigma tories aganist meddling in Austria's affairs.
 Facts among Danubian nations to secure general peace in Central and Southeastern Europe.
 Italy France Satisfied.
 Italy and France expressed themselves as satisfied with the declaration of common policy, even though Britain does not necessarily join in any action they may take. Britain, they say, is pledged to their policies for assuring peace, and hence will not side with an outside power in @ crisis.
 This Is the first time they have been sure of such British tacit ap- proval in all the recent years of pickering. Britain has pursued its own course, seeking to mediate.
 This mornings session lasted three hours.
 To Hear French Charges. Geneva, April 13 (UP)-France's $ case against violation of treaties will be put before the world Mon- day at a meeting of the League of Nations council which she called in protest against Germany's re- armament.
 The basis for the meeting is a French memorandum in which it is argued that such treaty violations are likely to lead first to political confusion and thence into chaos. The memorandum arrived today from Streca. It is to be published tomorrow.
 France intends that the mem- orandum shall lead to league action to anticipate future treaty viola tions by putting teeth into the League of Nations covenant, prim- arily aimed at providing prompt, severe economic, commercial and financial penalties against treaty violators. These would be backed up by security agreements, also within the league framework. which would mean military action against an aggressor.
 It was thought likely that the memorandum, which contains eight pages would be distributed to League Council delegates.
 There are 14 members on the council: Argentina, Australia, Chile Czechoslovakia, Denmark, France, Great Britain, Italy, Mexico, Po- land, Portugal, Spain, Turkey and Russia.
 Poland is a key country. It has been predicted that if there was a tendency to denounce Germany for past violations, Col Joseph Beck Polish foreign minister and league delegate, would defend Germany and prevent actions. League resol- utions must, be passed by unani- nous vote.

She gave him a kiss on the tip
Of his short nose, Strengthened his
collar and sent him on his way.
A L CERTAINLY was swell for a
governess, Peter reflected as he
descended the stairs.
OF course, dad had taken Peter
on his knee only last night, and had
told him that the other one" was
beautiful and that she would love
Peter very dearly, and he knew that
Peter would love her, because she
was as kind as could be, and very
fond Of little boys.
Daddy certainly had been looking
differently now for some time His
eyes were all shiny and excited like
when he came from his Office in
downtown Washington, and he'd pick
Peter up and give him a big bear
hug for no reason at all. 1t must
be the other lady who was making
him so happy. OF course, they didn't
have their Sundays together any
more, to go to the ball games or
swimming.
But dad had told him that in a
short time, the three of them-he
and Peter and the other one"-would
all go together, and until then, well,
Peter wouldn't mind missing a few
Sundays so much II daddy promised 10
take him to the seashore for a whole
week in the Summer, would he?
No, Peter didn't mind because he
knew how much daddy loved those
Sundays together and If they couldn't
have them for while now it GER
tainly couldn't be his fault.
or COURSE, there was always AL
to fill in when dad wasn't there,
but lately AL hadn't been quite so
much fun as before. Oh, she still
laughed great deal and said funny
things: but sometimes your laughter
couldn't answer hers, because, when
you looked at her eyes, you had a
feeling that she really didn't want to
laugh.
Gee. It sure would seem strange to
be calling some one you'd never even
seen before by the name Of mother,
as daddy had told him to do.
Gosh, perhaps 1t wouldn't be 50
bad that daddy was going to marry
this lady after all He'd have his
very own mother, then, like all the
rest Of the kids. He'd run right
away and tell dad that he was glad
about it, after all.
AS Peter approached the big, shady
veranda Of their Sixteenth street
home, he could hear the booming
laugh of his father mingled with the
rather shrill tones Of woman. Peter
Immediately did not like her laugh
1t made him feel as If some one had
slipped an icicle down his back.

much too overbearing and possessive.
Now, Tom, you're not going to re-

But what about Peter?"

as another to children his age.

can't turn the girl out without a
job or money, for no reason at all"
IF she's such a good governess
she won't have any trouble-besides
you can give her money and get her
job"
MARY, don't be unreasonable. I
will do anything else you wish, but
I will not send Al away. It's just
one Of those things nothing in the
world could make me do"
Then she began to speak again,
and as Peter listened to her, he be-
came frightened. She was taking Al
away from him-that's what she was
doing-Al with the nice laugh and
eyes. Little by little, this strange
woman was making daddy believe the
silly things she was saying.
She was sending Al away where
Peter would never see her, and if
he didn't stop her, she would take
daddy away, too, because you could
tell she didn't like little boys. After
ward Peters memory of the scene
| that followed was always confused.
Somehow he was standing before
dad and the woman, crying and
screaming that nobody ever could take
Al away. He remembered her say
ing scornfully: Heavens, Tom. your
child is q little terror!"

DETER had grabbed the cup full OF
brown coffee and thrown it all
over her light green dress. Then
she had slapped him in the face
and daddy was standing up with his
arm around Peter protectingly, his
face very white.
Somehow, Al was there on. the other
side of him, as they stood listening
to all the terrible things the woman
said to them, especially to daddy.
Then, after she had gone, daddy said
a lot about being stupid and blind
and fool, but best Of all Peter re-
membered the look in AIS eyes as
daddy put his arms around her and
said:
Peter isn't the only one who needs
some one to take care of him."
