 Mrs. Henry J. Saunders of Park road appeared In answer to the call for Randall Saunders, the mighty contender throughout the contest, who finally won second prizes In both groups, Democrat and theater awards.

 Randall carried the audience with him on his ride across the stage, for obviously, the bright lights caused wonderment which moved Randall's chubby face into puzzled frown. He hid his face on his mothers shoulder and the audience roared appreciation for his first stage fright"
 The Big Moment
 Then came the big moment of the evening. The Most Popular Baby, George Rizk, three and one- half years of age, son of MT. and Mrs. Naim Rizk of 575 North Main street, was called to receive his awards. Stepping like @ champion, smiling into the lights, little dark eyed and dark-haired George strode across the stage, holding his fathers hand.
 First, Uncle Harry" gave George the cup, a large silver trophy which stacked to a good fraction of the winners size, Then the checks sctarted to arrive.
 There was 8 check for $l00 from The Democrat and then a check for $25 from Polls theater.
 Now, there's a surprise" Uncle Harry" announced. Here's another check for $l00, drawn to George Rizk and a present from his grand father for winning the Most Popu- lar Baby Contest"

 pretty well under cover. If the strike drags on we'll ultimately blanket the state."
 Tie Up Everything
 The Truck Drivers, Chauffeur and Helpers union, Local 67l, attempted today to tie up all New England Transportation company trucks, charging the New Haven railroad, It's parent company, had violated an agreement not to interfere in the strike situation.
 The road was accused of carrying merchandise which ordinarily would have been hauled by the companies affected by the strike. New Haven headquarters of the road insisted the only freight being carried was from It's regular clients and asked police protection. Three trucks were conveyed through Hartford late last night but at the city limits were turned back by pickets.
 Rock Throwmg
 One instance of rock throwing was reported. Trucks bearing govern ment materials for the Pratt & Whitney Aircraft O., were stoned after @ short haul from Wethers- field freight terminal. No one was injured.
 The Motor Truck association, rep- resenting the more than 35 affected transportation lines, announced through It's executive secretary, Myles W. Illingworth, its members 'are now and always have been ready to submit the points in dis pute to arbitration" and that the association would cooperate with the mediation board.
 Ilingworth said e "satisfactory agreement" recently was reached with Bridgeport, New Haven and Waterbury locals.

 At Submarine PLan
Ccontinued from Pags l,

1 unknown" submarines would only havo to comply with the humaniza- ton rules. They could challenge any merchafitTnan and, after giving time for crew and passengers to take to life boats, sink 1t, he said.
 British and French delegates said in reply that warships of any coun- try whose merchantmen were at- tackled could take any independent reprisals deemed necessary.
 Protests Made
 Litvinov, however, retorted that this would provide no protection for Russian ships passing through British, French and other patrcl zones unless Russian warships acc companied them. For instance, he said, 1t appeared that British and French warships crewg would look on calmly if a submarine in their zone attacked Russian or other merchantmen so long as 1t gave due warning of the attack.
 Furthermore, Litvinov complained this policy would be equivalent to recognition of the Spanish nation alists as belligerentS, with the right heretofore firmly denied them by Britain and France-to attack mer- chant shipping of neutral nations or the high seas.
 Avoid lingering Italy It was apparent that the disagree ment was the result of British and French efforts to avoid antagonizine Italy. Though every delegate believed that the naval patrol plan was de. signed to keep Italian submarines operating in behalf of the Spanish nationalists, out of the sea lanes Italy must not Ee mentioned, and Ttaly's active cooperation was sought
 For this reason, there was some belief that Italy knew what was go- ing on at the moment and that the British and French delegates - though they could not say--had req son to be convinced that if @ naval patrol system were inaugurated the submarine menace would end auto- matically.
 Italy Informed
 French and British charges d'af- fares at Rome, 1t was learned, inc formed the Italian government yes- terday first that France and Britain deeply regretted that Italy was un. able to attend, second that 1t was impossible to delay the conference because the mysterious submarine activity must be ended ct once, and third that Britain and France be- lieved 1t impracticable to turn the submarine problem over to the com- mittee on non-intervention in the Spanish civil war.
 It was understood here that if, as was certain Italy refused to cooper ate in the pirate" patrol plan France and Britain would take il over.
 Italy is to get a full copy of what ever control plan is worked out, and so will Germany, who joined Italy in a boycott of the conference be- cause of Russia's denunciation ot Italy as the submarine power.

of patrolled sea lanes; (6) All "anti- Piracy" powers agree to keep their own submarines out of these lanes.
 It is the 7th point that tells the story:
 '"The naval and legal experts have still to decide what action is to be taken against submarines which enter these lanes"
 In other words, as delegates pre-" pared to leave their hotel room con- ferences for the meeting here, there had been no agreement on the single point of vital importance.
 Fear of Break Up
 It was feared that unless a coin- promise was found before the con- ference session started, 1t would be impossible to reach an agreement today and that the whole naval patrol problem would have to go over until next week.
 Each days delay, delegates knew. gave additional chance for some inc cident in the pirate" submarine crisis that would precipitate an ex- ploston in tn capitals of Europe.
 Already Italy and Russia were ex- changing open threats of direct ace ton against each other.
 The path toward agreement seemed clear until Litvinov-regard- ed by British and French delegates as the infant terrible of the confer ence because of his undiplomatic insistence of identifying the ofi1cial- ly mysterious submarine power as Italy-studied the British-Fren proposals.
 These proposals had been worked out carefully in hope that even If Italy refused to join in the naval patrol plan, and thus help keep the Mediterranean free of submarines which Russia charges are Italian, she would not oppose 1t.
 Lltvlnov Charges
 But Litvnov charged that under the proposals only submarines which violated the 1886 agreement that sought to humanize submarine warfare, would be penalized. This meant, he asserted, that interna- tional patrol warships would attack only submarines that sought to sink merchantmen without warning.
 Under this plan, Litvinov charged,

City's Most Popular Baby Acclaimed At Formal Presentation Of Awards

The Most Popular Baby Contest of The Democrat became history to- day after the peak interest of Wa terbury had maintained for weeks until the final votes were boiled in the hard-fought election. The winning babies received their awards of $250 cash and other prizes, last night at Polls.
 Such is the bare record of the ending of an event which actually needs no coloring to be colorful. You take a few babies and bring them onto stage, and the unforeseen is to be expected. And last night
 Uncle Harry
 The lights fiared as the traveI picture and pre-views ended. A pleasant man wearing 0 brown suit stepped before the microphone al the audiences left. He needed no in- troduction to many in the audience They knew him as Uncle Harry Devorken of The Democrat, comis strip commentator on occasion, ad- vertising executive most of the time.
 He called names of the prize- winning babies, starting with the winners of the lesser prizes. Par ents carried splendidly dressed ba- bies who have not yet learned tc toddle, out behind the bright foot lights. Then came the more im- portant prize winners.
 First Appearance
 Mincing with careful steps and led by her sister, Virginia Cossette two-year-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Philip Cossette of Bank street trod the stage for her first public appearance and received an order for twelve fine portraits of herself to be taken by Thomas Studio, the fourth prize.
 But, an interruption of the pro- gram for a minute. The Democrat wants those few prize- winners who did not call for their awards last night to know that their checks are awaiting them at The Democrat office. And winners of tickets offered by Polls may use them today or later, may see, Broadway Melody of l938", which opens Greatest Show Season" at Polls today, with the additional detective-thriller sec- ohd feature.

With hei mother, Mrs. M. J. Scannell oi School street, Ruth Ann stepped daintily across the long Poll stage to where Uncle Harry" waited.

.CONCILATORS TO HEAR ARGUMENT
Painters, Decorators Sit- uatiOn Here CIOuded By
 Conflicting Reports

Morgan Mooney of the labor de- partment will be in Waterbury on Monday to attempt Q settlement of the painters and decorators strike which is now more than a week old. 1t was announced today by John McGurk, manager of the Building Trades Council.
 In the meantime both the union representatives and the four etn- ployers affected by the strike are making contradictory claims. All employers claim that work is pro- gressing per usual and with the ex- ception of the A. F. Taylor O., it is claimed that half the men have returned to work.
 On the other hand the union still states that there are more than fifty men out at the present time and that their side of the issue Is for $9 per day instead of the $8 per day which they claim the compan- les were paying union employees. It is expected that the intervention of Mooney will bring matters to Q sat- isfactory settlement.
