$l,0OO Fine, $l2O Costs to Be Remitted-Saves
 Him ll2O Days

By virtue of superior courts le- uiency today, Harry Pietrobono of Waterbury who is serving a term in states prison at Wethersfield, had that sentence shortened by approxi- mately 112O days. Pietrobono was sentenced to a year in jail, and fined $1,00O and costs of $120 when found guilty of violation of the liquor statutes by Judge P. B. O'Sullivan in superior court here last April 20. The fine and costs were remitted today. Pietrobono was found guilty of the same charge to which Mrs. Lena Cammilletti of South Main street pleaded guilty. She was sen- tenced to the state farm for women. They were selling smoke" in a South Main street apartment.
 Fine, Costs Reunited
 Upon the recommendation of Judge P. B. O'Sullivan who imposed the penalty, and the local states attorneys office, Judge Kenneth Wynne remitted the fine and costs today. He was informed by Assistant States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald that Pietrobono is absolutely destitute and without any means of paying the monetary penalty. If the fine and costs had not been remitted, Pietrobono would be ob- liged to serve one day for every dollar involved or 1120 days. AS the situation now stands he will be elig- ible for release in 10 months, ac- cording to Mr. Fitzgerald. When he was sentenced in April by Judge O'Sullivan, it was Pietrobono'S fifth offense of the liquor statute.

Amelia Earhart Has Begun Hardest Leg or Her Flight

army and air force men watched for her to fly over there about noon. Next her course lay northeastward along the Niger to Timbuctu, an other 500 miles. From Timbuctu, fol- lowing the Niger as it turns in a wide bend Southward. she was ex- pected to fly on another 180 miles to Gao, and thence to Niamey, an- other 235 miles down the river.
 Gao is the turn table" for the French east-to-west and Belgian north air routes. If wealth CT reports proved unfavorable, she planned to turn northwaro from there and follow the Belgian mail route to 'Algiers, proceeding along the coast.
 On the Belgian route she could refuel at the famous "Bidon 5" land ing field in the heart of the desert, where the French army keeps tents and reserve fuel tanks, and at other emergency fields. But Miss Earhart hoped to make the trans-continent flight direct.
 She started her flight today de- spite the handicap of fiery sun and intense heat more than 100 degrees which caused a ground glare and shortened visibility somewhat, as heat waves rose 900 feet aoove the ground. But though she elected to fly along the edge of the desert. her course was at no point mtle than 50 miles from town as she fol- lowed a centuries-old camel caravan trail along the Niger valley.

TOWN VAULT FIRE
 SET FOR BLIND

Hanson, Mass. June 10-(UP) - Fire discovered yesterday in the town vault at Hanson's town hall apparently was kindled as blind" to cover the theft of two brief cases containing the results of the annual state audit of the books of the town of Bingham, state detective Albert L. Brouillard said today. Whoever set the fire, Brouillard added, evil dently assumed that the brief cases contained data pertaining to the accounts ofc the town of Hanson.
 Meanwhile, state auditors an- nounced that their audit had shown that the Bingham books were in good order. Thus far, they added, no discrepancy had been discovered in the Hanson books.
 , Cooperating in the investigation here today were Brouillard, state Fire Marshal Edward S. Murtagh, two auditors assigned by state audi tor Thomas H. Buckley, state troop CTS >from Norwell barracks, and po- lice Chief John Ibbitson of Han- son.

Contrary to published reports linked with activities of the general assembly during the past few days Senator George T. Culhane is not "gunning" for the position of Judge John F. McGrath of the local mu- nicipal court.
 In a statement today Senator Gull hane not only took occasion to dis credit announcements attributed to him but carified the general court situation as far as he was per- sonally concerned by describing his position and interest tn probable ap- pointments.

MORGAN STRIKES
 AT TAX DODGERS

New York, June 10-(UP)-J. P. Morgan said in a formal statement today that he had no sympathy with tax dodging or tax evasion" :" He expressed surprise" at the in- depreciation placed upon state ment he made upon his return from Europe earlie rin the week, which caused considerable debate in Con- greSS.
 My interview on shipboard with newspapermen last Monday took place before I had seen President Roosevelt's message on income tax evasion, with Secretary Morgen- thau's letter." the international banker said in statement dictated to newspapermen by spokesman.
 T am surprised at the interpre- tation that some people seem to have put on my off-hand remarks, for certainly have no sympathy with tax-dodging or tax evasion and had no thought of defending such practices.
 What I feel strongly is that when 8 taxpayer has complied with all the terms of the law, he should not be held up to obloquy for not having paid more than he owed"

COLE BROTHERS
 CIRCUS CANCELS
Was Coming Here June Is But Sends Word It
 Will Not

Police Superintendent William J. Roach announced today that a ten- tative application by the Cole Brothers-Clyde Beatty circus for a permit to play in Waterbury has been withdrawn. The circus man. agement wrote to the superintend- ent asking that its application be cancelled.
 The circus had originally planned to give performances in Waterbury June 15, but later had changed ar engagements and was planning on a later date. Now, the revised plans have been cancelled and the circus is definitely not coming to Water bury.
 No Reason Given
 No reason for the cancellation was given, but 1t is believed to be the result of poor business enjoyed To- cally by the Downie Brothers cir GUS. The school board refused to grant a holiday or half-holiday m the local schools on circus day and hence attendance at the afternoon performance was cut down to mere few hundred.
 The Ringing Brothers, Barnum and Bailey circus has not arranged any Waterbury showing this year, though it is playing in other cities about the state. Hence it is ex- tremely likely that none of the major circuses will play in Water bury this year.

FRANCE, ITALY,
 GERMANY AGREED

London, June 10-(UP)-France, Germany and Italy have agreed to a British suggestion to meet as soon as possible to draft 8 new formula governing the neutrality patrols around the Spanish coasts, 1t was disclosed today. It was expected that the ambassadors of the three invited powers would be delegates.
 Diplomatic quarters reported that France and Britain would oppose any Russian effort to force an in- ternational investigation of the bombing of the German battleship Deutschland.
 Ivan Maisky, Russian ambassador. in letter to the Spanish non-in- tervention committee, sought to place the bombing on the commit tee agenda, asserting that the Deutschland was not engaged on neutrality patrol work when it was bombed. His idea apparently was to remove any possible justification for the German sAelling of Almeria as a reprisal for the bombing.

Grauman's Chinese theater was presenting the premier of "Hells Angels" and she accompanied Bern to the performance.
 Sees First Picture
 On that first evening together, she said, T sat through 'Hells Angels in cold precipitation trying to realize that the screen really was me. I disliked the type of films ir which I played that cold, hard type of girl and I didn't even see two or three of them" During Bern's courtship, Miss Harlow was kept busy by her film producers. First, Howard Hughes sent her on a tour of personal appearances throughout the country. Then, in November, 1880, she was loaned to MGR for ''The Secret Six" one of the gang ster cycle pictures.
 Six More Pictures
 Within year she had made six more pictures: "Iron Men" Public Enemy" "Goldie," Platinum Blonde" "Three Wise Girls" and ''The Beast of the City" Seven pictures in year, or less," Miss Harlow told a friend. 'and what pictures! I don't even like to think of them. In all of them I was the same detestable, unsympathetic girl. I determined to leave Hollywood. v During that time she and her moth CT had set up housekeeping, and her mother had married Marlno Bello. The three left for New York and Miss Harlow said she be-

Mayor Frank Hayes, lieutenant governor of Connecticut, was in con- ference yesterday afternoon with Governor Cross and urged the re- appointment of the local judges. At that time Governor Cross assured the Waterbury chief executive that he would rename the two incum- bents. The governor came through with his promise today.
 Starts His Slate We'll
 Governor Cross started off his slate of minor court judgeships to- day with the naming of the two Waterbury men. He followed with appointments to the court bench in Darien. Others were expected to follow later. A shake-up in the Naugatuck borough court will be di- rected by the governor with Judge Joseph Talbot. Young Republican leader of the state, going out.
 An effort was made by Senator Culhane of this city to have Mas colo busted and to have Attorney William K. Lawlor named in his place. Both incumbents, however, were strongly favored by Lieuten- ant Governor Hayes and Governor Gross. They will hold office until the next sitting of the legislature in 1889 as they are recess appoint
