Permanent Accident Pre- vention Campaign Takes
 New Life in Waterbury

Announcement of perma- nent accident-prevention campaign through the formation of a safety division was made today by the Connecticut Motor club, whose lo- ca, branch office is in the Chamber of Commerce building on Field street. 0. H. w. Newton of this city is a director of the club.
 During 1886, the campaign will have a threefold aim: to make the public safety minded and to develop a desire to prevent accidents; to bring about strict enforcement, pre- vent fixing, and bring about vigor- ous prosecution of dangerous driv- CTS: to justify a reduction in insur- ance premiums. The safety division, it is announced, will be under the direction of a trained, permanent personnel, whose only responsibility will be the reduction of highway accidents.

Boston, Jan. 3-(UP)--The mys- terious death of Robert J. (Bobby) Mythen, IS year old Winthrop high school athlete, which precipitated an investigation of so-called pagan practices on Beacon Hill. today was officially attributed to drowning by accident" 8a
 The finding was made by Munici- pal Judge Francis J. Good who pre- sided ct the inquest held last Oc- tober.
 Mythen vanished while following caroleFs on Beacon Hill year ago last Christmas eve, and three months later his body was found in the ice-ehoked Charles river. Some investigators suspected that he had been slain by c member of an exotic cult known to flourish in Boston's Little Bohemia" within the .shad- ows of the state house.
 There Is no reason to believe" said Judge Good, that this young man took his own fife. The evidence and the reasonable inference to be drawn therefrom would permit Q finding that the young man died from drowning by accident.

Slipped Quietly Out 0i HOteI-Fled to Some
 Unknown Place

Liverpool, Jan. 3. (UP)--Tho Lindbergh family, which has been in strict seclusion at the Adelplli hotel, left the hotel today for an tita- disclosed destination.
 The Lindberghs left their hotel shortly after 2 p. m. and reportediy started southward in the direction of London.
 Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh and their small son, Jon, left the hotel by the servants elevator at the rear of the building. They entered Q black limousine, which had been kept in the hotel garage, and immediately sped away.
 Relative Met Them
 The Lindberghs were accompanied by Q youthful, slightly bald man who came to the hotel last night and did not register. He was re- ported to be c. Audrey Morgan, . relative-in-law, whose home is m Cardiff, Wales.
 The limousine first headed north and soon outdistanced the only small taxicab which was available to newspapermen. It was reported the limousine later cut back on azi- other street and started south.
 Jon wore the same winter play suit in which he arrived in Eng land. He sat between his parents on the rear seat.
 The exit of the Lindberghs was sudden and secret. Col. Lindbergh called the hotel clerk to his rooms and informed him the family was checking out, thus avoiding passing through the lobby.

 Washington, Jan. 3.-(UP)-The house of representatives meeting today for the second session of the 74th congress needs $1,000, ,000, 900 in quick new revenue to meet the latest proposal for payment of the bonus. The veterans have abandoned the Patman $2,200, 100000 currency imitation bill. In sudden coordina- ton of effort the three major vet erans' organizations agreed on a non-inflationary measury. It calls for an immediate cash outlay of $l, ,00O, 100000. President Roosevelt warned congress last spring that failure to provide revenue to meet the bonus obligation was sufficient in itself to warrant @ veto.

Administration leaders were -committal. Support for the bill was sought by heads of the AIneri- can Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and the Disabled American veterans, who joined in advancing
