ter Roger B. fancy raced at top
speed through tropical waters
southwest of here to carry aid to
George F. Baker, SO, wealthy New
York banker, critically i'll aboard
the yacht Viking.
An emergency operation was
performed on Baker for peritoni-

on the IS. Niagara, which an
swered the Vikings plea for i'm
mediate medical assistance.
Shortly after the operation, a
second plea flashed from the Vik-

The fancy already had set out
from Honolulu with DR.. James F.
Judd aboard. A Navy plane, car
rying blood tipping serum and a
TRANSMISSION pump, overlook the
cutter three hours out Of Homo
lulu. The fancy was expected to
reach the Viking 600 miles from
Honolulu today,

White House Writers
Bar Gossip Mongers"
nv EARL GOODWIN

Professional gossip mongers
have been barred from the White
House by an action of the White
House Correspondents AsSocia-
ton which refuses membership in
the organization to alleged news
paper men who supply their
clients with so called "confiden-
tial" information.
This action closes the doors Of
the Presidents office to tipsters
and authors of so-called conf
Dental gossip letters which the
White House Correspondents AS.
ISOLATION recently learned have
been peddling what is looked on
as scandalous misinformation re-
garding the Presidents state OF
health and mind.
The public action Of the news
paper men who cover the Presi'
dent and the White House makes
it possible also to report the ap.
parent closer guard over the Presi'
dent by Secret Service men and
secretariat made necessary, it is
assumed, by threats against the
life of the President and the cir.
culation of inflammatcry matter
in these so-called confidential
letters.
Charges Against Health
Part of the background Of the
action of the White House Cor

old and constantly recurrent state

TRADESMEN AWAIT COUNCIL PARLEYS
New Hourly Rates for Members to Be Made
 Later This Week

Important announcements in re- gard to new hourly rates for mem bers of the various trade associations in this city are expected to be made this week, following a group of meetings that have been scheduled for the tradesmen.
 At least two of the associations will meet during this week, and arl- other is scheduled to convene before the beginning of next month. The painters association of this city is reported to be seeking the flat rate of $10 per day, which was in use during the year 1929, but as com promise will take $9. Serious oppo- sition is expected, when the group holds its meeting tomorrow night. James Donahue, leader of the local association is expected to preside.
 Master plumbers and steamfitters of this city have been studying the hourly rates paid in other Connec- ticut cities, and are preparing to enter a demand for the establish ment of a rate of SIPS per hour here. Compromise would probably bring the figure down to about $l.l2. This group will meet this evening, with President Chris Braun presid- ing.
 The main problem confronting the masons of this municipality is that of unskilled laborers infringing upon their craft. About April they will meet and take further action toward pressing statute that would limit mason work to those who acquire permits from the building inspector

presented by Thomas J. Reidy.
 Governor Irish
 Mayor Hayes commented upon the presence of the governor stat ing that he lays claim to being of every national extraction upon the occasion of being present at their activities. we sometimes believe that he is really Irish, remarked the citys executive" when we con. sider the last of Irishmen, he has appointed to state positions"
 New Degree
 In presenting the Governor, pr. Freney conferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Med- icine," the honors which were said to have followed the comforting of degrees recently as a pharmacist. The appointment according to the toastmaster was for curing brok. en down democratic party and rais- ing 1t to the level where the oppo- sition will probably die on the table during the next state election.
 In accepting the honors, Governor Cross remarked T love the doctors almost as I love the Irish, only sometimes I have to look out for the doctors, and don't have to do this of the Irish. There Is a Gross family in Ireland, he said, and sometime I am going to see if they are descendants there. A man once impersonated me in Dublin and had a fine time for himself. In sum- ming up his introductory the speak CT said that as one with so much Scotch blood in him and the rest Yankee, I have Q tendency to be stingy and never give anything away.
 Literature
 The Governor then touched upon the Irish literature penned during the time of Patrick which typified @ race which is generous, emotional and quicker in intelligence. This literature he said was far more ad. vanced than any other produced in any other country of the world for several hundred years afterward.
 Referring to his Irish appoint. rnents the Governor stated that he had considered the record of Su- perior Court Judge Frank P. Me- Evoy of this city, and has since had the honor to appoint three more of Irish decent to this court.

friend" l" said, his people came from the North of Ireland, but had to leave with the eralgrees or lose their heads for sympathizing with other Christians.
 He referred to the great courage of St. Patrick as he returned to th? land where he was once held jn slavery. to convert it's people. He returned to his former master with money to buy his ransom and went direct to the King of Tara and con- verted him to Christianity. St. Pa trick he declared, faced conditions and we must meet them with the same courage and faith as did st. Patrick.
 Rev. Dr. John H. Anderson of Stratford described Ireland as the home par-excellance of religion, whose missioners have been sent to all corners of the globe. Its reli- gious glories could better be told by the poets. The Irish Christianity. loyalty spirituality and democracy for which they fought so courag- eously, are needed today in other countries where there is a trend to- ward dictatorship. The Irish, he de- clared do not adore the false Gods of Hnaterialisn.
 Irish Names
 Judge John F. McGrath told of many of the old time Irish names, mentioning the fact that those of LearyN and Hayes had been promi- nent long before the 18th cnetury. It was only late in the last century before they gained much headway In Connecticut, and were never heard of as partners. The speaker twitted Mayor Hayes and Governor Cross, much to the amusement of those present.
 Vocal and instrumental music was presented by vocalists Joseph H. Le- zotte, baritone; William O,Brien, te- nor: Harry x. Cashin and his quar- tette, and Eugene Oviatt, accom- panist. The orchestra was direct ed by Eddie Bowling.
