 SENT TO JAIL
Unbelievable Cruelty Re- lated By Wife; No Good
 Says Judge M'Grath

After Mrs. Frank Antonio had re- lated in city court today tale of almost unbelievable cruelty inflicted on herself and her eight children by her husband, Judge John F.. Mo- Grath sentenced Frank Antonio, A, of 1914 South Main street to six month term at New Haven county jail.
 One of the children, the woman said, is now in the hospital with a fractured hand, suffered when struck 8 heavy blow by Antonio. Another child, she said, is under medical care for injuries suffered when his father, in fit of anger, lifted the boy off the floor by the ears.
 When she was having her eighth child several months ago, Mrs. An tonic testified, her husband refused to call doctor or a midwife. She was alone in her home, except for the children, she said, and had to deliver the child without any as- Sistance. Her husband. she claimed, after refusing to call a doctor, went on a several-days drunk.
 For years, Mrs. Antonio testified, the husband had given severe beat ings to herself and the children, and the youngsters covered when they saw their father come into the house.
 He's no good to you or anyone" {" said Judge McGrath in passing sen- tence.

SHIP TIE UP
 IS THREATENED
Seamen's Union Wants Proper Spokesman to
 Represent It

New York, April 30-(UP)--A new threat to tie up ships of the Inter- national Mercantile Marine com pany was made today by spokesmen for members of the International Seamen'S Union. ,-s.
 The threat followed a conference to determine means by which sea- men might register their choice of a spokesman in negotiations with the company for Q wage contract. The union members contend that ofiicials of the I. S. U. no longer re- present a majority of the union.
 Joseph Curran, chief opponent of the "old guard" union officials, de- manded an immediate election to determine the proper union spokes- men. He threatened Q strike of the crew of the United States liner American Merchant, which is sched- uled to sail today for Europe. and said the Panama Pacific liner Penn sylyania, due to sail tomorrow for California, might be similarly aftect- cd. Both are l. M. M. vessels.

SIMPLE FUNERAL FOR GILLETTE.
Only Members of Family to Attend Services To-
 morrow in Pennington

Hartford, Conn, April 30.--(UP)-- A private burial Service-as simple and quiet as the life he has always desired-will be held at Pennington Saturday afternoon for William Gill; lette, famous actor author, who died here yesterday after a lingering ill., ness.
 There will be no funeral services. It was one of Gil!ette's last wishes that he be buried without undue ceremony and only in the presence of members of his near relatives.
 Gillette, it was learned today, was not 81 years old a. first thought. He was in his 84th year, and was born here July 24, 1853. The discrepancy came about when a press agent once said he was 48 instead of 50 in or der to qualify him for a role in a Daniel Frohman production.
 The famous stage creator of Sherlock Holmes" came out of re- tirement a year ago to play a lead- ing character in Three Wise Fools" In curtain speech here, he said he expected to come out of retirement again in 194l, renarking:
 "You can expect me here once more in 1941. It just seems, some how, the every five years finds me back again. Probably in 1876 when they are celebrating the 200th anni- versary of the beginning of the Declaration of Independence. or whatever it is 40 years from now, I'll still be farewelling."
 The Rev. Warren S. Archibald, pastor of South Congregational church, will conduct the burlal ser- vice in Riverside cemetery.

 Washington, April 30. - (UP) = Democratic plans to raise $1O,5OO,O00 for political purposes during the four years of Presidents second term have begged, down somewhere within the na- tional committee organiza- ton.
 The fund-raising program was adopted here January 2l at national committee meeting. Committee officials told the United Press that so far the plan has not raised a penny HOT have any of the proposed 48 state money collectors been named. Secret quotas were to have been assigned each of the more than 5000 counties in the United States. None has been assigned so far.
 Committee officials said, however, that some movement toward trial test of the fund raising program probably would be made within the next fortnight. But the program will be considerably more modest at least at the outset - than as out lined last January before the na- tional committee. But the commit tee expects to finance the 1888 con gressional campaign from proceeds of the program. 1t is supposed "; le

 scribed By Canon Who Fled Country to Paris
BY RALPH HETNzEN

lUn1teu PfeSS Sy9m COFfeSpOm0eMtD
 Paris, April .-(UP) France and Great Britain have agreed tc aid in evacuation of civilians from Bilbao, in response to urgent ap- peals of the Basque loyalist gov- ernment, the foreign office asserted today.
 Several thousand" it was said, were to be included in the first lot to be sent from the war torn area and it was assumed that most of them would be small children.
 Great Britain, the foreign office said, undertook to obtain the con- sent of the Spanish nationalist gov- erning Junta to consent to the evacuation and agree not to fire on any Basque, French or British ships used to avacuate the refugees.
 The foreign office said. that the decision to evacuate refugees prob- ably would be announced formally at London late today.
 At Frances suggestion Basque loyalists asked the central loyalist government to house refugees in Spain, instead of abroad, so it was expected that the first refugees at least would be taken by steamship either through the Straits of Gib- raltar to the east coast or to French ports for transportatio noverland to Catalonia.
 The foreign office statement was made after Basque loyalists appeal ed urgently to the government, as- serting that the Situatio nof 150,- 900 to 100000 non-combatants was desperate.
