 In this second match since her return to the, tennis wars. Mrs. Moody again paced herself care fully to avoid a recurrance of her old back injury. Consequently. she was much less impressive than on previous trips to England.
 However, at times she displayed flashes of former brilliance and left the tall, youthful Miss Morrison fiat-footed as bulleting drives found the corners. Taking no chances with her back. Mrs. Moody fre- auently allowed drop shots and wide balls to go without recovery. Her voileys occasionally lacked the old fire.

BUCKINGHAM IS
 GIVEN APPROVAL
 IN STATE SENATE
Democrats Again Split on AppOintment-PrOduc=
 CTS, Dealers Protest

Hartford, Conn, June 4-(UP) The governors appointment of former Agriculture Commissioner s. Mclean Buckingham, Water town, a republican, as milk admin istrator, was approved by the sen- ate today, 1915.
 As in the case of approving re- publican as welfare commissioner yesterday, democrats again split and voted with republicans.
 The commissioner virtually will be a dictator over the milk in- dustry, having power to regulate prices, subpoena witnesses, books and accounts, revoke licenses and set up production quotas.
 Sen. John c. Blackall. Hartford democrat, was the lone deserter while the three Bridgeport social ists also voted for approval.
 Sens. Cornelius D. Shea, D., Hartford, and Nathan Spiro, R.. Danbury, were paired.
 Buckinghams nomination, wher announced by the governor, stirred a storm of protest from larger groups of producers and dealers.
 During the short debate preced ing today's vote, Sen. Edwin K Dimock, D., Morrow, of the agri culture committee. declared Buck ingham "did not meet with tn jquaiificattons necessary to fill tn 1 job inasmuch as the administrato should be man experienced in tn production of milk and cream. Under terms of an act approve' by the assembly the administrato was required to have two years o actual experience in production Ill to the time of his appointment.
 He replaces the milk contro board of three set up during tn last session.
 His salary will be $5.000 a yea and he is authorized to name tw' identities at $3,500 a year each.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-06-04

Standing solidly in back of the governor was the Connecticut League of Municipal Executives which yesterday warned legislators that financial emergency existed in most municipalities and unless provisions were made for state aid, federal funds might be discon- tinued.
 The bill to be reported later in the day was said to revive the de- feated two per cent sales tax meas ure, and included provisions for an educational equalization fund and an appropriation for the Sol- diers' Home at Newington.
 State Must Step In
 In his inaugural message, deliv- cred in January, the governor made clear the necessity of the state as- suming portion of the relief load.
 Whatever may be the ultimate policy of the federal government" he said, "the time has come for the state to assume a large part of the cost of relief which has been borne by the municipalities"
 Both houses were to receive a hastily composed bill late today and leaders were ready to insist the rules be, suspended to rush it to enactment.
 Block Any Move
 T will positively block any move to suspend the rules,' declared Thoms. Nobody has seen this bill, nobody knows what it contains and nobody has had a chance to study it.
 ''So far as I'm concerned it'c a bill don't care for anyway"
 A two-thirds vote is necessary to suspend the rules and Thoms said he believed 1t impossible to obtain that majority.
 Special Session?
 Meanwhile, while both. houses were in recess, the principal topic of discussion was the prospects of a special session within two or three weeks.
 The governor, 1t was understood. made 1t clear to assembly leaders that he was not "iuffing" when he demanded in his special message yesterday that the states income be boistered by at least $s,o0o, 900 a year.
 He was said to be of the opinion that real estate holders pay ap- proximately 80 per cent of the taxes and represent minority of the taxpayers.

GOVERNOR URGES
 REVENUE BOLSTER
Revival of Sales Tax Bill Tinted at in Strongly
 Expressed Message

Hartford, Conn.,, June 4-(UP) The general assembly today was under orders from the governors office to immediately" provide for bolstering the states revenue to lift municipal relief burden and enlarge the scope of educational state-aid grants.
 While not saying so in as many words, the governor was believed to have demanded revival of the sS,Ooo,000 sales tax bill, which was the principal item of his increased state income program.
 "The needs of our municipalities in their problems of providing re- lief is so acute" the governor said in a special message to the senate late yesterday, that I feel it is a solemn duty to urge your body to enact 6 revenue bill that will pro- vide a measure of state assistance. There is still time to pass well considered revenue raising mea- sure. It should be done imme- diately."
 The governor stated this con- clusion is borne upon me by re- cent conference with the mayors and other town officers" and warned it should not be forgotten that the people who are in dis. tress Eelong to the state of Con- necticut. We cannot escape our re responsibilities by leaving the cite: to shift for themselves" Leaders saw in the message concealed threat to call a specia session if an adequate tax bill i not passed.
 An educational equalization bill distributing $3.000,000 to cities ant towns, was defeated last week be- cause no means of raising ths money had, been included in tas measure. The budget, submitted yesterday, slashed m ore thar $sO0,000 from the states educatio. expenditures for the next tw' years.
 The Connecticut League of Nun | icipal Executives, has warned thu assembly that failure to meet thu | relief situation, will result in levy Ing special taxes on sources tha already have been drained ant probably would result in refusal b' the federal government to continu' aIlotments to the state.
