 ing Classes

Describes Shooting
 In the civil action brought by Mary through her father, Antonio, it is charged that the girl, accom- panied by a companion was walk ing along South Leonard street to- ward her home at 96 Charles street about o'clock in the afternoon of Nov. 9th.
 As she passed the front yard of Sgrillo's home at 334 South Leon- ard street, she dropped to the sidc- walk, but her companion, appre- ciating that Mary had been accom- toned to having fainting spells, thought the injured girl had faint ed. It was not until several days later that Detective Sergeant Hen- ry Johnson, Investigating the gro- cery store shooting, heard of the girls plight.
 X-Ray Was Taken
 He went to the home of the girl and talked with the doctor and it was decided to bring the girl to the Waterbury hospital for x-Ray pho- tos.
 The photos disclosed that bull let had entered the skull and lodged in the brain. It was found also that when Sgrillo had come from his home shooting his revolver. that one of the bullets had struck the plaintiff.
 The suit alleges the girl has been unable to attend school, that she suffers and will continue to suffer from severe headaches, and will bt permanently incapacitated as a re. suit of the injury. The action 1: filed in common pleas court by At torney Joseph A. Hackett.

found private employment. Recent estimates place the number of EZRA workers thus far transferred to WPA projects at not more than 600, while several months ago the EZRA list numbered well over $1,00.
 Dole to Be Shut Of
 The dole will be shut off for all states by the federal government tomorrow. Direct relief rolls throughout the country which dur ing the winter listed more than twenty million persons will be abol- ished.
 Predictions by federal authorities that all of the nations employable needy would be on government work by December 1 would appear to have been somewhat optimistic insofar as they affect Waterbury, in spite of the fact that the EZRA list has been practically absorbed here. There still remain an unde- termined number, formerly on the Mutual Aid, who are not consid- cred eligible for WPA work and this number will be increased with the abandonment of the Mutual Aid system, scheduled for Janu- ary l.
 According to advices from Wash ington, it is expected that the en- tire 3,500,000 of the nations em- ployables will be at work Monday.

SERIOUS CHARGES
 FACING SUSPECTS
Two Accused Waive Ex= animation on ROb-

Waving examination on a charge of robbery with violence, William Reilly, 23, of Lake Hitchcock, and Thomas Hannon, IS, of this city, were bound over to the next crim- inal term of superior court after arraignment before Judge John F. McGrath in city court this morn- ing. The court fixed bonds at each case at $1,000.
 Reilly and Hannon were arrested Tuesday night by Detective Sergt. Henry Johnson and Patrolman Thomas Fibre, who found 25 cal- iber revolver in Reilly's cottage at Lake Hitchcock.
 The two youths are charged with forcing D. c. Evans, attendant at an East Main street gas station, to put IA gallons of gasoline into the tank of their car, as they menaced him with a gun Nov. l.
 Evans later told police that the marker plates of the car were coy- cred with a handkerchief, but that he would recognize the two hold. up men. Reilly and Hannon have been questioned at length by police since their arrest, but authorities say that they are not suspected o1 any other crimes.

{, suance of its neutrality policy. The United States governments policy has reused gravest anxiety. Italy had for allies today as the cabinet met Albania, across the Adriatic, with 100000 population, and the little republic of San Marine, with 14,000 people and 38 square miles of territory nestling on the italian Adritic shore.
 The preciousness of oil to Italy aside from other items on the pro- posed embargo list was looming more and more importantly in everyone's mind.
 Foreign military attaches estimat- ed that Italy's 300 airplanes in East Africa consume 18,000 gallons of gasoline an hour during Simpltan- eous flight. Surface motorized units on the northern front include 18,- 900 trucks whose consumption is alarmingly high due to the difficult terrain and the altitude. There are hundreds of tanks to be considered and then there is the army itself. Supplies are going to advanced areas now by thousands of camels as well as in trucks. But lack of fuel would not only seriously dam the flow of supplies to the remote northern front but would stop the flow from Italy, since ships must have oil. Britain Moves For Peace. Paris, Nov. 30-(UP)-Great Brit ain has moved to seek a basis oi negotiation with Italy and thus to avoid the greavest potential crises since the World War, it was learned today.
 Strengthened by 8 big majority ir the recent parliamentary election the British government has suggest ed unofficially a meeting between Sir Samuel Hoare, foreign secretary and Premier Pierre Laval to discuss the possibility of 8 peaceable settle ment before an oil embargo is ap- piled against Italy.
 France has replied, also unofi- cially, that 1t will agree to the meet ing if Britain makes its suggestion an official one.
 The meeting would be last ef- fort to avert application of the oil penalty with its possibly grave re- percussions.
 Effort To Conciliate
 Any effort at conciliation would be based on a previous plan to per- suade Ethiopia to cede some terri tory to Italy in exchange for an outlet to the sea, probably through British Somaliland.
 It was understood that any ac- companying effort to end Italian British tension would be settled di- rectly between Italy and Great Britain without the participation oi Laval.
 The new effort to try to find a basis for conciliation coincided with an apparent clearing of the diplomatic atmosphere which re. suited from Premier Laval's solemn warning to Italy that warlike meas. ures against Britain would mean warlike measures against France and all the League of Nations.
