 Bankhead, House Majority Leader Sam Rayburn, D., Texas, House Whip Patrick J. Roland, D., Penn, and Chairman John O'Cononr, D., N. Y, of the House rules commit tee, not only brought committee criticism, but bitter denunciations from Republicans.
 Minority Leader Bertrand H. Shell, R., N. Y, said that "the spectacle of Lewis taking possession of the office of the speaker .. undoubt- edly will shock great many peo- ple"
 But what. else can be expected from the man who owns the Ma tional Labor Relations Board and whose interest in the White House is disputed only as to its extent" he said.
 Next we shall see the speakers office moved down to CIO head quarters, with the Democratic con- gressmen being summoned there to learn MT. Lewis wishes. MT. Lewis obviously believes that those who paid the fiddler are entitled to call the tune."
 While Lewis conferred with lead- CTS, other CIO officials-Lieut. Gov. Thomas Kennedy of Pennsylvania, Richard Frankensteen of the United Automobile Workers Union, Gardi- ner Jackson, CIO attorney, and Lee Pressman, chief counsel of the CIO -discussed the legislation with con- gressmen in their offices and cloak ! rooms.
 Lewis was understood to have ex- pressed his desires in firm lan- guage. One administration leader quoted him as saying: We want this bill with vengeance"
 Establishing himself in Bank heads office, he then interviewed several congressman brought there by his CIO colleagues. These in- cluded Rep. Martin Dies, D., Texas, a rules committee opponent of the measure, and Rep. Lawrence Lewis, D., Colo. The latter refused to be influenced by the labor lobby.
 T was very glad to meet MT. Lewis" he otld reporters, but mo- body puts the heat on me. What ever I do do on my own." Lewis, demanding that the bill be lat least acted upon by the House" charged that dozens of companies are "fattening on government con- tracts and they ought to obey the law while they are doing it." Specifically he named members of the aircraft industry as violators of the Labor Relations Act. He de- scribed the plane manufacturing in- dustry as "fattening off the agony of the world" and making a new set of millionaires in this country"
 In addition to the "black list" provision, the proposed legislation would recognize the principle of "check-off" payments of union dues whereby employers deduct such charges from pay envelopes for dis bursement directly to unions.

 Hagearty First Witness
 Senator William E. Hagearty of New Britain, judge of the police court In that city and the man whc introduced the very recalcitrant Electric Steam Sterilizing bill into the 1895 General Assembly, was the first witness before Waterbury's ex- traordinary grand jury as that body reconvened after a two weeks 1 recess.
 Without exception the grand jur- ors looked ready for long period of sessions and apparently were well rested after their vacation whicl, started June l.
 With the appearance of Senator Hagearty there is splendid basis for the speculation that the jury has not as yet completed with its probe of lobbying, which to date has caus- ed the arrests of five members of the 1885 General Assembly,. Four are awaiting arraignment, while the other has pleaded guilty to charge of accepting a bribe while in office. Alleged to Have Taken Bribes The five legislators were arrested for allegedly accepting bribes for favoring the Electric Steam Steril- izing bill. Hagearty has been mem- Der of the senate during the 1881, 33 35, and 37 General Assemblies. He is a Democrat. During the past assem- ply he was on the senate committees for aviation, judiciary, and military affairs.
 Hagearty was one of the three senators who incurred the wrath of Governor Wilbur L. Cross during the 1885 assembly by siding with the Republicans on So-called "dear' for the appointment of judges. Gov ernor Cross termed the three men 'maggots". Hagearty is 34 years of age.
 Reports that the jury might work only at intermittent times each week were neither denied nor supported by Special Prosecutor Hugh M. AL corn when he came to Waterbury today. In regard to report the jury might recess during the months of July and August, MT. Alcorn said in non-committal manner, T like to work in the summer"
 In Hartford County
 During the past two weeks he and his staff have been occupied with the prosecution of criminal matters pertaining to Hartford County. As sistant States Attorney Hugh M Alcorn, Jr., and Harold E. Mitchell remained in Hartford today for this purpose.
 With the continuation of the probe of lobbying, there is belief that more arrests on charges of violation of the anti-bribery law will ensue in Hartford County. One week ago today Senator Joseph H. Lawlor Representative John D. Thoms of Waterbury, Senator Matthew A Daly of New Haven, former Repre- sentative F. B. Hickey of Stamford and former Senator Nathan Spiro of Danbury were ordered arrested on such charges.

vent refugees leaving by boat, and machine gunned Loyalist troop col- umns on roads north and south of the city. Other planes bombed and strafed the Castellon railway sta- tion to prevent trains from being used in the retreat. Thirty other bombers went further af1eld and attacked Mules, miles south, the next immediate objective of the Na- tionaliStS.
 Eleven tri-motored bombers raid- ed Sagunto, 25 miles south, and Strafed the main road which was clogged with troops of the retreat ing army.
 The government charged that the Nationalist planes deliberately bombed and machine gunned re- treating civilians, but the National lStS said that almost the entire pop- ulation of Castellon remained in the city and embraced the Nationalist troops"
 The Nationalist announcement said that large numbers of prison CTS were taken, including squads of militiamen who surrendered en masse." Many troops and civilians, surprised at the rapidity of the Ma tionalist encirclement, were said to have remained behind rather than face the insurgent guns.
 With the occupation of Castellon, the Nationalists now hold 79 miles of the Mediterranean coast, whereas on April IS they held only 5 miles, between Vinaroz and Benicarlo. In addition, the city's fall gave the Ma tionalists their 37th provincial cap- ital. The Loyalists hold 13.
 Madrid reported that thousands of refugees from coastal towns south of Castellon were pouring into Valencia. Sagunto was said to have been almost wholly evacuated.
 Valencia, already overcrowded with refugees from Madrid and other towns in the Central zone, made nasty preparations to house and feed 1 the newcomers.

WILSON ENTERS
 NOT GUILTY PLEA

 From there he went to Vitro's pack age store on Bank street where he left Krakauskas, and met three others. Mike Saldukas, Leo Jurgon- is, and Francis Sprekowski. He left the latter three at 12:30 a. m. and went to the home of MT. and Mrs. Murphy on Railroad Hill street. He left htre at about 1 o'clock, and was dead the next time he was found.
 Wilson was arrested 8 short time after the nfeless body of Mahoney was found on the railroad tracks near Lafayette street, the morning of April 28. A bullet from Wilson's gun, fired from the upper stories of IA Lafayette street mad entered his back, and sped through his body, also passing through his knee.
 Engaged in Break" Police, in reconstructing the oc- currence, believed that Mahoney was breaking into the store at 12 Lafayette street operated by Samuel Cooper. A large sack of flour had been dragged through the broken window of the store and lay near loading platform. Bits of flour covered the clothing Mahoney wore when he was found.
 The story told by Wilson to po- lice at the time of his arrest was that he was awakened by another member of his family, who was dis turbed by the noise of breaking glass. His story was that he got out of bed, went to his trunk for the gun and then walked to the window, fired one shot without aim- ing, and went back to bed. He said he intended only to scare the noise- makers.
 Charge Is Changed
 A preliminary charge of murder was placed against him, but after an investigation by former Deputy Coroner Walter w. Smyth, now assistant states attorney, he was held on 8 charge of manslaughter. A neighbor. Edward Jenkins, col ored, is held on charge of ob- structing justice.
 After the sulg had entered his body, Mahoney apparently had strength enough to flee the scene, but died just hundred yards from the spot where he was shot.

 ducting it's inquiry and that in fairness to his client, the defense should possess the same tnforma- tion as the state as far as the ex- animation of the jury was con- cerned.
 During the arguments last week, Judge Baldwin admitted the pres ence of the states attorney and his assistant in the jury room "a new procedure" and that i've are rather blazing the trail" as regards the question before the court.
 In his memorandum of decision, today, Judge Baldwin said:
 This case has advanced to the stage where the element of secrecy insofar as the evidence produced before the grand jury relating to this accused is concerned, has, sub stantially, met its purpose. The well-founded policy of the law has surrounded each person accused of crime with many safeguards in or der to protect such persons from any unjust or unfair conviction.
 Tt is not necessary here to de- tail such safeguards. Under the cir cumstances present in this case, it appears to me to accord with the general policy of the criminal law to grant this accused and his counsel permission to inspect the evidence produced before the grand jury, insofar as such evidence re- lates to this accused This does not include the right to in- spect any minutes or records of any of the deliberations or of any vote, or votes, of the grand jury"

 High Sheriff Slavin said today that an agent of Alcorn called him this morning and asked him to send somebody to Waterbury with the records of the releases. In connec- tion, he said, he sent MT. Mona.
 MT. Pasternak admitted having the subpoena for this afternoon. His assistant, Daniel Mahaney has not been called.
 Groundwork for the probe of the election, which resulted in a 55-vote victory for Mayor Hayes, was start ed prior to June l, when the jury called as witnesses the chairmen of the Republican and Democratic town committees, J.

Many of Its
Top Stars
Season Is Happy
But Some Names
Are Missing
By Mark Barron,
Associated Press STAFF Writer.
NEW YORK

NEW YORK.
Although Broadway is happy with
hits at the Yuletide season. there
are few of the established stars on
the boards. Most of those who have
their names in lights are either new
faces or more veteran performers
who have only recently won the stel-
lar ranking.
The really established Broadway
stars of long standing are now miss
ing from a prosperous Rialto. Helen
Hayes has departed on a short tour
with her successful Victoria Re-
gina" Katharine Cornell is look
ing for a new play, having just
closed tryout failure. (But it is
good wager that Miss Cornell will
go into the leading role of S. N.

vale. Tallulah Bankhead, Judith
Anderson and bevy of other stars
are missing on current stages.
Raymond Massey, now a star in
the hit ABE Lincoln in Illinois,"
has long been a well-known actor
on Broadway, but this biographical
story of the Rail Splitter is such
an eloquent ode to democracy that
it makes the performance almost
an historical one.
Maurice Evans, star of the full
length Hamlet" was little known
here before except the time that he
played Napoleon in "St. Helena" !"
But in this exhausting role he gains
the same stature as star on Broad
way that he has in England.
