ATTORNEY HEALEY
 LAUDED BY JUDGE
AnsOnia Barrister, Loser in Divorce Suit, Praised
 By M'Evoy

The examplary theory of life of a Derby attorney is lauded by Judge Frank P. McEvoy, in a decision handed down today on a divorce case heard in superior court here last week, in which John Wabuda Is awarded a decree from Nancy Concowich Wabuda of Ansonia. The complimented attorney, strange as it seems, represented the losing side of the case.
 Attorney William F. Healey, rep resented Mrs. Wabuda, the defend- ant in the case, and claimed that the charges of intolerable cruelty brought by her husband were un- true and not sufficient to warrant divorce. Upon the completion of the hearing. Judge McEvoy reserved decision and MT. Healey filed brief, stating his clients case in full. A portion claimed that the claims of cruelty had not been established, that the couple should not be sepa- rated but reconciled, and that the petitioner, (Mr. Wabuda) was al- most certain to see the light that true happiness is in the bosom of his family with his wife and child" Judge McEvoy did not agree with Attorney Healey it appears, and granted the divorce. His decision was accompanied with the memo- randum. in part, This admirable sentiment is readily attributable to the defendants attorney as expree- sive of bis own exemplary theory of life. rather than that of his client"
 The couple, which is divided by the decree handed down today. was married August I2, 1928 at Ansonia. Attorney 4. Henry Welsman appear cd for the plaintiff.

 V. I. Mezhlauk, the new comrnis- sar for heavy industry, who once bought on entire automobile plant in the United States and transport- cd 1t to Russia, declared In speeches late in May that the majority oi heavy industry was tagging behind It's plans. He said that there was great confusion due to wrecking ace tivity and criticism, with the re. suit that many directors refused to accept responsibility.
 About the same time, the Moscow newspaper Pravda charged that oil production for the first four months of the year was o06,0 ,000 tons less than the five year plan called for and was even less than In the cores" bonding period last year.
