 IN WARM SESSION

Cleveland, June 5. - (UP)- Left Wing delegates to the sec ond annual convention of the American Newspaper Guild today carried to the floor of the assem- bly their fight to revise the guilds National Constitution. The prelim- mary report of the Constitution committee was expected to pro- duce almost as much controversy as yesterdays debate over approv- ing a report by the editor of the guild reporter, official publication.
 The left wing group desired changes in the constitution which would enable the guild to absorb newspaper clerical and business office workers; to substitute . more tightly centralized governing body for the present National Guild Administrations; to provide for amending the constitution by a majority instead of a two-thirds vote, amending the constitution by a majority instead of a two-thirds vote, and to provide for removing national officers between conven- | tions.
 The vote of 71 1-2 to 57 by which the report of the reporter editor was approved yesterday was considered to some extent a test oi strength of the left wing factior
 under leadership of Haywood
 Broun, National President, and
 Jonathan Eddy, National Executive | Secretary. This same group als(
 favors utilization of the guild witf

 a question which is expected to oc

 Several days elapsed before Pel- liceIli, 27-year-old resident or Stonington, Me, discovered that the girls home was conveniently To- cated just across St. Peters street from the jail.
 Of course she passed the Jail yard quite often, and one oay Dominic asked if she would go buy him some cigarettes. She did. And after that she often went on err rands for him. He learned that her name was Dorothy White and that she was Is.
 Recently an unromantic sheri1 ruled that prisoners could be vis- ited only by relatives.
 Shortly after. Dominic was found writhing on the floor of his cell. He had swallowed disinfectant in Q suicide attempt. When he recover. ed he told the sheriff whe he had sought death.
 Now jail rules have been modi' fled so that Dorothy can visit Dom- inic. :.

By GEORGE R. MORRIS, Jks. ' Limited Press Stan Correspondent
 Hartford, Conn, June 5-(UP) Tho cloud of special session hung over the house and senate as they met jointly today to hear the ad- journment message of Gov. Wilbur L. Cross.
 A rebeilious democratic House bloc, aided by six republicans and two socialists, doomed the revived two per cent $14.000,000 retail sales tax bill last night by refusing to suspend the rules.
 The bill had been hastily drafted in committee earlier in the day upon demand of the governor to provide relief funds to municipali- ties and care for educational and institutional needs of the state during the next biennium.
 Lost By Two Votes.
 The motion to suspend was lost by two votes.
 The insurgents were led by Min ority Leader John D. Thoms, d., Waterbury, who declared his op- position to the bill because from the taxation viewpoint it is un' fair"
 He held to previous convictions that tax on interest and dividends should have been included in the emergency draft. Socialists were of the same opinion and have been since the start of the session Fl eweks ago.
 It was the second time a retail sales tax bill had been killed. The

 of the Much Hunted WOlcOtt Slayer

The body found on the banks of the Southington reservoir in Vol colt late last night was not that o1 been sought since June 24th o1 last year, all Investigating author ities agreed this afternoon. Dr Irving Platt, Wolcott medical ex. aminer, told The Democrat this Af- ternoon that there was little likeli- hood that the badly decompose6 body would ever be definitely identified. Waterbury and Vol colt police, after searching their records, could find no clue to the identity of the drowning victim and were at a loss to explain just who he could be.
 Found last night by Lloyd Par sons, employe of Southington water company. the body first be- lieved to be that of Crow. was found today to be that of man considerably shorter in height and lighter in weight than the long sought Wolcott murderer. The body specifications failed to tally even at all closely with those of Crow, while the clothing was not typical of the dress worn by the Wolcott recluse who last June shot and killed Clarence Yuskis, P, and Julian Karvauskas, A. on the Yuskis farm in Wolcott.
