Detroit, June 6-CUP)-El-
 mcr Took took off in his glider
 Sunday for points unknown.
 The winds were favorable and he sailed from west to east across Detroit. Took had trav- cled about 30 miles when he
 was caught in a downdraft. An
 emergency landing was in or der and Took headed for the biggest and smoothest lawn in sight.
 His bumpy landing in flower bed brought the owner running from the house. Took explained how he happened to drop in and the owner of the emergency landing field helped him to dismantle the glider
 and store it in a garage. Then he ordered his chauffeur to bring out the town car and drive Took home. As they left the estate, Took asked the chauffeur:
 "Who is that guy?" "That." said the chauffeur.

 Jury Probe

Philip Coppeto, head of the Ab- rigador Diggers, and one of the 27 men arrested for alleged conspir- acy against the City of Water bury, entered the post office at 1:3O o'clock this afternoon, for questioning by inspectors of the U. s. treasury department, in- come tax division. He is the first of number of those named in the recent grand jury report who arc expected to be questioned by government men. He and his firm the Abrigador Diggers, received three-quarters of million dollars
 from the city during the past eight years.
 Federal agents of tht United States Internal Rev enue Department today sub poenaed several WaterburiaL to appear at their special of. flee in the post-officc build. ing, for questioning with regard to income tax returns This new angle is a definite ramification of the Water. bury extraordinary grand jury. It is expected to lead to the impanelment of a Federal grand jury with the possibility that indictments charging several Water burians with Justification of income tax returns will be handed up. The special federal agents, three in number, are at present seeking out information which will be placed before the Federal grand jury which will meet in secret and hand down indictments.

Leary. Rep. John D. Thoms, Senator Joseph H. Lawlor, of Waterbury; former Rep. Daniel F. B. Hickey of Stamford; former Senator Nathan Spiro of Danbury and Senator Matthew A. Daly of New Haven are those whom the grand jury recom- mended should be acted against for violations of the corrupt practices act.
 Others Will Be Tried
 It has been learned that in addi- ton to these seven, two sor whom have already been arrested on charges of conspiracy to defraud the city of Waterbury, there will be sev- eral others, including legislators and lawyers. Their Identification could not be learned today.
 Several Waterburians who ap- peared as witnesses before the grand jury have been subpoenaed to ap- psar as witnesses at the trials which apparently will start im- mediately after the bench warrants are issued. In view of the ap- parent delay of the local trials there is considerable question as to whether the Hartford trials will be started so speedily.
 With regard to the, arrests in 8tkrtfpfd county, 1t is necessary that the bench warrants be Issued at the scene of the crime, if there be one.

October 81 Named Final Date
To Achieve SOiI-Building Goal

Maryland farmers cooperating IN
the conservation phase of the 1888
Triple-A program are reminded by
w. G.. Finn, director of the East Cen
trail Division, that they still have time
to earn full payment for achieving
the soil-building goal for their farms.
October 81 is the closing date for car
rying out soil-building practices under
the 1888 program.
Mr.. Finn points out that provision
for improving non-chop open pasture
land is included in the 1888 soil-build-
ing goal for the farm. This allowance
can be earned by applying lime, super
phosphate, or potash to pasture land
prior to October 81, 1888.
Credit toward earning the soil
building allowance also will be given
for new seedlings of specified grasses
and legumes, including bluegrass,
clovers, lespedoza and winter legumes
in adapted areas.
In addition to applying lime, super
phosphate and potash on established
pastures, the soil-building payment
may be earned by the application of
these materials in connection with
fall seedlings.
Farmers may obtain further infor-
nation concerning soil-building prac-
tices from John H. Carter, County
Agent.

The placing of citizen of Oakland

Cumberland recently through the local
office of the Maryland State Employ

public fact that is not widely known
that there is a bureau here to as

problems and to assist people who
want work to find it. This service is
free.
A number of persons are being
placed in permanent positions in the
State and in other States through the
clearance system of this service, and
quite a few employers in the county
are getting their workers through the
bureau.
When an employer desires a per-

The Governor persuaded some
excellent men" to take 'key

connection it is to be noted that
the Sun continues its misrepre

of his regime, Governor Ritchie
