WAGES CANNOT
 BE ATTACHED
Chamber of Commerce Has Notified All Members
 on New Law

The Waterbury Chamber of Com merce today sent bulletins to its members reminding them that the act concerning attachments of wages, passed 0. this years session of the General Assembly, cecomes effective July 1. The act outlaws the attachment of wages, and provides that debtor shall be summoned into court and that orders for the manner of payment of his debt shall be given by the presiding judge aft CT a study of the circumstances.
 The summons must be served directly on the debtor, and cannot, as in the past, be served on the em- ployer. After the court has entered a judgment, or has heard the merits of the case, 1t may make reasonable orders for the payment of the debt by the defendant. The court will take into consideration the ability of the defendant to pay, the amount of his income and his other debts, and the amount of the clam in question.
 Court Jurisdiction
 The court will have continuous jurisdiction in the case until the judgment is completely satisfied Any order of payment may be altered or modified from time to time in view (Continued on Page 4)

Mystery Has Developed h Kidnapping or Mrs. Parsons

phases of the investigation today The official entry of the G-men who supposedly have been merely assisting local authorities, was based on the Lindbergn law, which pre- supposes after seven days that the kidnapers have crossed state boun- diaries with their victim, thus vio- lating federal statutes.
 Earl J. Conelly, inspector Tn charge of the federal agents, said a search of the woods surrounding the Parsons farm would be re- sumed this morning. Hundreds of local and state police and volun- teers have been assigned to the search in the belief that Mrs. Par sons might have been killed and her body hidden near her home.
 Major John A. Warner, Superin- tendent of state police, cancelled all leaves of absence during the pres ent emergency" and dispatched more men into the Stony Brook area.
 Conelly refused to discuss prog ress of the investigation or reports that a contact had been mad ewith the kidnaper. Other sources i1di- cated that the G-men were con- centrating on the theory that Mrs Parsons was dead.

 Offered $55,OO0
 MT. Leon, the prospective pur- chaser, stated today that he has of- fered $55,000 for the tract, which is now leased by Philip Coppeto of this city, and used as an amuse- ment center. Leon denied that he represented any syndicate, stating that he wanted to purchase the land as an individual.
 Court proceedings are necessary to the sale in view of the fact that the Connecticut company is in re- ceivership. Local interest will be centered upon the results of the hearing next week. The Lake Quas- sapaug resort has been developed into one of the most popular in this section.
 The Coppeto lease will expire al the completion Of the present sea- son and in the event the land is sold to Leon, he will not be able to take possession until that time.

CANISTER DIES
 NEAR HIS BABY

New York, Jan. 16 (UP) - John (KikD Costello, 30-year-old son of the West Side, was as tough as they come, and smart. Police blamed him for many river front killings during prohibition days, but he always beat the rap. Costello could also be soft when the occasion demanded. Last night he took his I year -old son, John, Jr.. out for a breath of air on the street. While the child dozed in its carriage, Cos tello hummed lullaby.
 An automobile bearing New Jer- sey license plates drew up to the curb and two men got out. They | took in the situation with quick | glance and then deliberately did what they had come to do. Aiming carefully above the infants carriage they fired rapidly at the crooning father. Then they jumped in the automobile and drove away. Before Costello died, with six slugs in his body; the Rev. J. F. Holland of nearby St. Bernard,s church, ad- ministered last rites. Police said Costello's gangster enemies had caught up with him.

Insurgents To Enter
 Bilbao City Tonight
Basques Still Resist Fiercely-All Must Be Driven Out Said Rebel Leader-People Are in Very
 Desperate Situation
BY HARRISON LAROCHE (Unied Press Staff Correspondent

Hendaye, French-Spanish From tier, June 16.-(UP). = Reports reached the frontier today that na- tionalists might seek to enter Bill bao late tonight. Despite the re- ports, Basque loyalist resistance was maintained and the defenders fought fiercely in areas about the southeastern n d northeastern suburbs. Nationalist airplanes bom- barded the cemetery outside the city because of a big troop concentra- tion there. In the Galdacano re- zion southeast of the city proper, hand to hand fighting with knives was reported.
 Among Themselves !.
 RumorS continued to circulate that there was fighting between Basques and Asturian miners in Bilbao because the miners wanted to blow up buildings before the nationalists entered. There has been no confirmation since the ru- mors started yesterday morning. However, it was believed that yes- terday's enforcement of martial law in Bilbao was intended to restrain any turbulant elements.
 Nationalist patrols pressed re- lentlessly on the suburbs.
 General staff orders to Gen. Jose Fidel Davila, commander-in-chief, warned him to proceed deliberately and to defer formal entranc einto the city until all loyalists had been driven from the hilly country north, east and south of the city.
 Apparently these orders were all that delayed the occupation.
 Mop Up All Country
 Orders called for methodic mop ping up of all country right to the center of Bilbao so that no part of the national forces could be cut off and annihilated by an unex- pected sortie.
 The nationaliss have 8 30 mile front before Bilbao. An incautious advance by individual units in any sector might court truoble. It was

vacation and give them the other half-week's pay before the Christ mas holidays. Some of the workers then returned to work late this morning, and all were expected to be back at their places this after noon.
 The strike began inside the plant at o'clock, with members of one department refusing to work. Then, at g o'clock, practically all the workers left their places and walked out. They milled about the main gate and the factory yard while the committee negotiated with the man. agement.
 Was No Disorder
 There was no disorder, though 8 squad of police was on hand. Today was the regular pay day at the fac- tory, and paymasterS came to the gaets to give out wages. Police formed the strikers into lines and they waited for their pay in orderly fashion.
 Employees made plans for the strike yesterday when the manage ment posted a notice stating the fac- tory would be closed from July to July 12, and that employees would receive no vacation pay. The notice said that it had been planned orig inally to close only July 1St, 2rd and 5th, but that workers sentiment favored a longer vacation. Vacations with pay would cost the factory $6O, ,00O, the notice said, and that much money was not available. In-
