SMITH LISTENS IN
 ON COURT DEBATE
Local Congressman Plans to Oppose Compromise
 on Reform Plan

Congressman J. Joseph Smith of this city, only member of the Con- pecticut delegation in the U. S. house of representatives who came out openly against President Roose- IIYeltis court reform plan, is expected 10 oppose also the substitute bill which has been introduced. Rep. Smith, accompanied by Rep. Will liam Fitzgerald of Norwich, were in the senate yesterday when the de- bate on the proposed court changes was opened.
 Leaders of the opposition to the substitute plan say they have the support of Senators Augustine Lon- ergan and Francis T. Maloney, who were also opposed to the original plan. Representatives Herman Kop- pleman and Alfred N. Phillips are said to be in favor of the substitute bill. Both of them spoke openly for the Presidents original program.
 Representatives Fitzgerald, James Shanley and William Citron are snon-committal. However, Rep. Fitz- eerald will probably support the bill, and Rep. Citron will probably do likewise. Rep. Shanley is expect e2sto vote against the bill.
 During the controversy over the original bill Rep. Smith issued a statement condemning the plan and announcing that he would vote against it. He is said to be likewise against the substitute bill which has been advanced.

Attention or Burglars Is
 Called To Treasury Shed

wasn't much need to make 1t com- pletely burglar-proof, because no burglar possibly could get away with the swag once he reached 1t. It's too heavy.
 The willy treasury department al- so foiled you burglars by locating its depository on the reservation of the military school, and back from the road piece. The only way for a truck to reach 1t, is through West Point and all its soldiers. Any oth- CT route is through gully and tim Der and mud enough to wreck any truck. You burglars might make it with tank, but the army prob- ably wouldn't lend you one.
 Bids will be opened on the new depository in August. It ought to be finished and full of silver by spring. It is square, one-story building, with big front door, a flag pole, and no windows. It will cost about $600,000 and 1t should lasa a long time. It is necessary, because silver comes in ingots, and because stuff so valuable tradition ally deserves a roof. The treasury could, however, solder all these irl- gots together. and dump It's 70-ton chunk of silver in the middle of a pasture. It would be utterly safe, the experts said, particularly if 1t were surrounded by picket fence, to keep folks from scratching their initials on 1t.
 Tough luck, burglars. Better fig- lire on some other job.

BY FREDERICK c. oTHMAN

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Washington, July 7-(UP)-At- tention burglars: The treasury is- sued a picture today of Its new shed at West Point, N. r., where it in- tends to put about 70 tons of silver into dead storage. This structure will have no secret tunnels nor au- tomatic poison gas dischargers nor flooding arrangements like the gold depository in Fort Knox, Ky. in other words, burglars, the bullion warehouse will be comparatively easy to crack. if you're interested. Its made of concrete, with heavy, double walls, but a good charge of dynamite ought to make @ hole in 1t. Therell be few guards around, but nothing like the army of sharp shooters maintained at Fort Knox. It should be possible to take care of the silver guardians.
 So there you are. burglars. The guards are out of the way, the hole is in the wall and all you've got to do is walk in and take the silver Therell be $90O, 900, 900 worth of 1t, a big enough haul for anybody. And that, burglars, is why the treasury is snickering at ssou. The haul Is too gosh-awful big. It Is so ex- ceedingly big almost l.760,000 pounds--that nobody but the gov- ernment has the facilities to handle 1t. Walton Clark, the engineer who designed the depository, said there
