Waterbury conducted an investiga- ton and questioned, in addition to the occupants of the Lee car, Stephen Zmuda of 129 South Main street, Seymour who told police he narrowly avoided hitting MT. Reilly with his own auto. MT. Lee was released on his own recognizance.
 MT. Reilly has many friends here and is well known. He came here about 40 years ago from Ireland, his native country and was employed in the local rubber plant until a few years ago when he retired. He had lived at the Central House since then. He was an active mem- Der of the democratic party for a number of years but had not sought office.

 After a few years, the plants grew high enough 50 to give him 8 screen, or green wall, of trees and shrubs, and provides privacy.
 At the time both these gardens were started, the area of land was the same and both spent the same amount of money for plants. One knew what and where to plant trees and shrubs; the other didn't.
 To avoid certain pitfalls when you start garden, here are some simple rules:
 If the area is small (and the smaller, the more irnportant):
 1. Plant high-growing shrubs and trees around the outline of the space. Enclose your garden. Make room out of it.
 2. Never plant single shrub or tree anywhere without having 8 reason for 1t.
 3. Keep the lawn space unbroken by not planting flowers or trees in it. Grow flowers where they will get sun.
 4. Do not try to have everything in your garden. You may have Q rock garden, 8 pool or rose bed, but don't try to have them all.
 5. Make your garden an addi- tional living room to your house.

Connecticut Women
 Oppose Court Plan
State Division of "f1ands Off the Supreme Court to Meet Saturday in aIlrtford; ''No Sit Down Strike"

Curtis disclosed in her testimony before the senate judiciary commit tee that as early as June, 1936, at the First Finance Congress of Women held in Chicago, there was adopted a resolution of faith in the supreme court, demanding that no legislation be passed to increase the number of that body.
 Statement
 From National Headquarters in New York, Miss Curtis has sent the following statement to Miss Leila Thompson, Connecticut chairman.
 "The many thousands of petitions from every state in the union which are coming in to headquarters daily and the increased opposition of women in all parts of the country, offer conclusive proof that there has never been 8 time in our history when women, regardless of age, sta- tion in life. political beliefs or club interests, have been willing to unite ina common cause pertaining to government, as they have on this fundamental American issue of the supreme court"
 Reports of the special luncheon meeting of the Women's National Committee held at the Town Hall club in New York city on May 5, and attended by upwards of one hundred and fifty members repre- senting many eastern states, will be presented by the national chairman, At this meeting recommendations and resolutions were adpoted and definite plans for national cam paign to carry forward throughout the coming months, were discussed

The Connecticut division of the Women's National Committee for Hands of the Supreme Court," " will hold its first luncheon meeting at the Young Women's Christian Association in Hartford, on Satur- day, May 15, at 1 o'clock, with Miss Leila Thompson, chairman of the state division presiding.
 Miss Cathrine Curtis of New York, the national chairman, who will be the guest of honor and principal speaker, will review for the Con- necticut members the results of the committees national campaign in opposition to the supreme court change.
 It will be recalled that Miss Cur tis appeared before the senate judiciary committee in Washington on April 9, at which time a dele gation of three hundred women filled the committee room. Though substantial number of women from the Connecticut division went to Washington for the hearing, there are many who did not go who will welcome the opportunity of hearing first-hand reports of this particular activity.
 No Sit-DOWn Strike
 Xt is becoming more and more evident. through the attendance at meetings and reports being received at National Headquarters that the women of the nation have no inten- tion of performing 8 'sit-down' strike on the supreme court isue, for there Is every indication that their interest is increasing and with it their determination to aggressive ly carry forward a national cam paign of public education and dis cussiqn with particular emphasis upon the women's viewpoint.

Francis Smith is not wholly pleased with the slowness in which the legisla- ture is taking up the question of minor court judgeships. There are only IS legislative days left, includ- ing today, yet the legislators have not brought in a single minor court judgeship and have failed to act on the eight resolutions concerning county commissionerships.
 'They are going pretty slow, ? said State Chairman Smith when interviewed. "They had better hlir- " things up a little," he added.
