FORECLOSURE ON
 HOUSE WITH PAST
Unique Story Linked With Grand Ave. Residence;
 Owner Unknown

A house on Grand avenue with a varied history, where at one time an illicit still was located, was named in a foreclosure action heard in superior court today. The still entered the case during the appraisal of the property's value b. John J. Horan, local realtor. Pipes leading to and from the still had lowered the propertys value, he said.
 The foreclosure action was that of the Waterbury Savings bank against George s. Green, and othres Judge Earnest Simpson fixed the debt on the property at $545, and named June II law day.
 During today's hearing, 1t was brought out that taxes and interest had not been paid in several years and that @ law suit in connection with the property is now in the courts. There are three claims on the property, and one attorney said: No one seems to know who owns it."
 MT. Horan testified as to the value of the property. It had sev- eral tenants in the past few years, he said, and was now in state of general dis-repair. While inspect ing the house, he said, he found the remains of a still in the cellar. At one time, he said, the house was used as a sanitariura for the weak < minded. .f <

May 1, the nations traditional moving day, found Waterbury on the move to a greater extent than at any comparative day since 1929 2 check of five of the city's larger transportation companies dis closed this morning Company executives were enthusiastic about the volume of orders, declared unanimously to exceed even those of last spring when the increase was noted for the first time since the beginning of the depression.
 Responses to the question: How are the May 1st moving Orders?" varied anywhere from good" to better than ever." Apparently no particular section or sections of the city are favored. A trend to- ward the outlying districts was reported however.
 As was the case last year, many of the families moving today were those who had for some time "d0ubIed", in single family resi- dences because of economic con- ditions. A general improvement in business over that of last year is undoubtedly responsible for the fact that many of these double" household arrangements are being broken up for the first time in several years, in the opinion of moving company executives.

NEW DEAL BREACH
 MAY BE SETTLED

Washington, May 1.--(UP) Mod crate but unmistakable progress toward healing the breach between big business and the new deal was made at the 24th annual meeting of the U. s. Chamber of Commerce, in the opinion of some leaders.
 Resolutions adopted by the Cham ber of Commerce criticized most phases of the administration re- covery program, but anti-new deal feeling seemed to lack the bitter ness of last year.
 The chamber reelected Harper Sibley as president of the nation wide organization for another term, and to guide his policies adopted proposals calling for:
 The most conspicuous instance of better feeling between business and the administration came when the chamber, acting on it's own volition but following, in general, sugges- tions made by new deal spokesmen, started movement to survey re- employment possibilities in indus try.

|SIAMESE TWINS
 HERE NEXT WEEK
American Born Girls Fea- ture of Wirth Circus;
 Opens at ArmOry

One of the amazing features with the Frank Wirth shows to be seen at the armory ali next week under the sponsorship of Zindah Grotto is the siamese twins, Mary and Margaret Gibbs of Holyoke, Mass. Born May 20, 1912, of normal American parents, they are the only living American born Siamese twins. Those who desire auto- graphs may obtain them after each performance.
 Another novelty act is Earnest Brengk's golden horse, Bella Donna and his bronze statues. Ernest and his wife, Bella, hail from Europe. Ernest being born in Hamburg and his spouse in jenna. They have long been in the circus world and have toured the United States ten times. They also have toured Europe and have played in many famous entertainment palaces. Theirs is called the cleanest act in the circus and perhaps one of the most entertaining.
 Those who are curious will be glad to learn that a special preparation devised by Ernest required but five minutes to put on and but ten n1in- utes to wash off. Earnest is a former Heidelburg medical student and found the secret of preparing humans with fold leaf with no i'll affects. A bath aftre each show and they are normal again. Aside from the statue posing, the golden horse is one of the biggest innovations ever presented in circus ring or or a stage and the unusual feature is that the horse changes it's various poses in front of the audience, thus dispensing with the customary curtain.
