 Sandringham, England, January 18 = (UP) - King Georges heart grew weaker today, causing grave anxiety for the life of the British monarch who lay i'll in a spe- cially ventilated room of his country residence, Sandring- ham House.
 At the gates of the country estate where hundreds of his sub- jects gathered watchfully, the fol- lowing bulletin from the kings doc- tors, timed 3:30 D. in., was posted:
 "EIis Majesty the King has had some hours of restful sleep. The cardiac weakness and ernbarrass- ment of circulation have slightly itl- creased and give cause for anxiety"
 Specialist Present
 The bulletin was issued after the three regular royal physicians ate tending the king had called in Sir Maurice Cassidy, one of the most eminent heart specialists in all Eu- rope. He arrived ct Sarldringham at noon.
 The kings illness began with bronchial catarrh, an ailment to which he has been subject since his grave illness of 1928. But 1t was the heart weakness and attendant "etn- barrassment of circulation" that gave most concern. It was reported that oxygen was being administered at intervals.
 Most of Family There
 Most of the monarch's family, in- cluding the Prince of Wales, who would become ruler of the British empire at the moment of his fathers death, were gathered at Sandring-

THREE-YEAR-0LD
 BELIEVED DEAD

Medheld, Mass, Jan. l8.-(UP)-- With hope that three-year-old Dale Tibbets would be found alive almost abandoned. police today continued dragging streams, ponds and water holes in the region where the son of MT. and Mrs. Silas N. Tibbetts has been lost since Wednesday.
 Dragging this morning centered in a huge swamp within sight of the Tibbets farmhouse. A brook runs through the swamp. It was on the edge of this bog that Dale's pet dog," Mitzi," was found Wednes- day after becoming separated from its master.
 Freezing temperatures and light snowfall during the night dimmed lingering hopes that the missing boy might have survived outdoors. That Dale had pcrished in water or in the woods was feared in most quarters.
 Hundreds of volunteers and police wooded tracts covering several square wooded tacts covering several square miles. The snowfall was scarcely a handicap. amounting to only Q frac- ton of an inch.

Mayor Hayes Aduises Police Commissioners Calls Their Attention to Fact That City Cars Are Be- ing Sent to Accidents Outside Jurisdiction;
 Asked Board to Study the Matter

In sa lettSy.to the new board of ,f,olice commissioners, read at- the kroup's first session this noon, Mayor Frank Hayes asked that the board study and take action on the police departments practice of sending city-owned cars to the scenes of accidents outside the city limits. The mayor pointed out that liability insurance carried on police cars is effective only within the confines of Waterbury, and that @ continuance of the practice by the department might result in litiga- ton which would be costly to the city.
 , The communication called parti- cular attention to information reaching the mayor that local po- lice sent several cars to Milldale last week after serious &C., cident had taken place there.

HOME LOAN CORP REDUCES FORCE.
Only Skeleton of Original Staff Soon Will Be in
 Local Office

A skeleton office force will soon be the only remnant of the Waterbury branch office, Home Owners Loan corporation, 1t was learned on good authority. The ofiice force, already cut. will be further reduced with the dismissal of several employees now at work, and the transfer ot five or six to the New Haven ofiice. This step will take place within a few weeks. F.
 Atty John Burns. manager of the local office, is definitely i'll service with the New Haven office of the HOLC. The skeleton force remain ing here after Q few weeks may be eliminated altogether after another period of time has passed, since the activities of the HOLC have been curtailed greatly. The former man. aRer of the local branch office now holds @ post with the state offlce ot the federal agency.
 The handwriting, appeared on the wall for HOLC workers when the government cut down sharply on new loans and new applications The office here is now working principally as collection agency.
 The HOLC office is now on State street. When first established here, Manager Burns had his headquar- ters in the post ofiice. So great was the press of business. however, that new quarters were sought and the office was moved to Center street. The last move was to the Campbell building on State street.
 During the peak of HOLC work here large staff was given steady employment by the government.

Dangerous Spot on Main Street May Be Eliminat.

Elimination of ono of the most dangerous traffic points in the Wa terbury area, located on Main street in Oakviile, is being contemplated by the state highway department, 1t has been learned. Plans call for the purchase of considerable property, including Q large strip of land own. cd and occupied by the present Union Congregational church or Oakville.
 The present location of the trolley tracks along Main street In Oakviiie Is making neces- sary the latest steps on the part Of the highway department. The tracks run along one side of the street Tor 0 distance of almost mile, start. ing ct the center of oakville. and then cross the highway near the Union Congregational church In such . manner as tc create 2 has- Too Ons-sided
 Plans of the, state highway depart- ment would eliminate the one.sided location of the tracks.

The tracks run alongside the Oakvllle Pin come pany's pond at one side of the high. way, also.
 Representatives of the state high- way department have been in Oak. vile studying the situation and have taken the matter up with town ofiicials, 1t Is understood.

KIPLINC DIED EARLY IN NIGHT
Famous Poet Passed Out
 Suddenly, Although He Was Very III

BY HENRY TOSTI RUSSELL Limited Press Stan Correspondent
 London, Jan. 18-U.Po - Mess ages of coincidence on the death of Rudyard Kipling poured into Lon- don to-day from all over the empire he loved, and of whose real nature he first made many Britons con- scious.
 The body of the poet-novelist- historian was taken this morning from the bed in Middlesex hospital where he died to the hospital chapel.
 It was said authoritatively that 1t would be cremated in deference to his own wish. Mrs. Kipling, 1t was said, decided to observe his de- sire after consulting Dr. A. E. Webb Johnson, Kipling's chief surgeon, this morning.
 Kipling's body lay before the al- tar of the hospital chapel between the choir stalls.
 Friends believed that his ashes might be honored with burial m Westminster Abbey in belated Ofil- cial recognition of his position as voice of an empire, whose cadences marched round the world to the rhythm of the feet Of his imnior- tal British Tommy.
 KipIing died at i2:iO a. m, toe day. His widow. the former Caroline Starr Baleister of Vermont, held his hand. Beside her was their daughter, Mrs. Elsie Bambridge.
 Though Kipling was concerned to have almost no chance Of recovery, his death came suddenly and was not expected. His condition had been stationary for several hours

BONUS MAY PASS . BY NHCHTFALL
Senate COnyenes for First Saturday SessiOr-On
 Few Ballots Against It
BY N. o. THOMPSON

 United Press Stan Correspondent
 Washington, Jan. ,1e.--(UP). .--The bonus may pass the senate by night- fall today The upper house, cor- vening for It's first Saturday meet- in.; of the session, had only to dis. pose of a test on imitation before voting on the "baby bond" bonus bill. Passage was considered cer- tain. The imitation fight centered around an amendment proposed by Senator Elmer Thomas, democrat, Oklahoma. It was expected to be re- jected as soon as vote could be reached. Thomas said during de- bate that his amendment should not be considered as infiationary but rather as an orderly expansion of currency within the range af. forded by surplus gold and silver.
 He proposes Issuance of about S2,OOO, 100000 in new money with which to pay the bonus, rather than use of bonds as in the senate sub- stitutc for the bill passed by tlH house last week. The bond plan, Thomas contended, would in the end cost about e4,O0O.O 100000 because Of the interest that would be paid over a nine-year period. A senate survey on the eve of the vote showed there would be only a scattering of bal. lots against the bill when 1t Is brought to final passage.
 The situation was as follows:
