Corrigan May Start Naval
Battle Ouer Welcome Back

New York, Aug. 2-(UP)-A pos
sibility-a remote one-of a naval
battle developed today as two rival
reception committees insisted that
they were going out to the harbor
in boats ThurSday to meet Douglas
Corrigan and that each would bring
him ashore from the liner Man
haitian.
One would take him to Brooklyn
borough, for colossal parade down
Flatbush avenue; the other to Man
haitian for a ticker tape parade up
Broadway and a welcoming at city
hall by Mayor F. H. LaGuardia.
Corrigan, returning from Ireland
where he few alone and "back-
wards" in nine year old plane Che
had no permission for an ocean
flight and thought he was flying to
California, he said) was getting
sketchy reports of the fued by radio
telephone aboard the incoming ship.
Both delegations were calling him.
Stanley Howe, the mayors secre-
tary and chief Of the Manhattan
faction, said Corrigan assured him
that he was interested only In the
ticker tape and city hall celebra-
ton. Howe had reporters watch
while he made the call and con-
firmed Corrigan's decision although
they couldn't hear what Corrigan
said. James A. Kelly, speaking for
Brooklyn and all the Irish Of the
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-08-02

and defense attorneys used APP
proximately 2,225 900 words in pre-
senting testimony and arguments.
Attorneys said complete cost OF the
case was inestimable. but believed
1t had cost the government alone at
least $350,00O
Judge Ford set September II at
Lexington for hearing of motion
for new trial after Foreman l.. F..
johnson had reported the deadlock
seven for acquittal and five for
conviction on the final ballot.
Hubbard said he had been i'm
pressed by "the strong case of con-
spiracy the government made.
II told the other jurors when we
took the first ballot that I could not
be true to my oath and go back To
my family and say that had done
my duty unless voted to convict
them all" he said.
II don't know why those four
other jurors switched around. That
happened about the time them ropes
was stretched around the house"
He referred TO ropes which deputy
marshals had strung around the
jurors quarters after Judge Ford
had received reports that friends
and relatives OF some OF the Jurors
had been seen "parading" before
the jury quarters in company with
some OF the defendants.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-08-02

city, said maybe Corrigan said such
a thing and maybe he didn't, and
Brooklyn's parade, planned for two
weeks, would proceed as scheduled.
They quarreled all day yesterday.
Howe said 1t was too much to ask
policemen to handle crowds for two
parades IN one day and there could
be but one Observation-Disclosures.
Kelly said Brooklyn's Sheriff James
v. Mangano would deputize. all the
men needed to handle the parade
there.
IF the police department re-
fuses us a marching permit we are
marching anyhow" Kelly said.
And If anybody Is arrested, his
tory will be made. Ever since con-
solidation Onto Greater New York;
Brooklyn has remained in short
pants and this committee is going
to put long trousers on It," Brook
lyn's claim to Corrigan was that
he took of from Floyd Bennett field
in that borough. Manhattan's
claim was the traditional home
coming heroes are paraded up lower
Broadway. Howe said the Manhat-
tan committee was going out to get
Corrigan at the quarantine station.
Kelly said the Brooklyn committee
would have just as good boat and
would meet the Manhattan at Am
brose channel, farther out In the
harbor.

DANBURY FIGHT
0NWACES ENDED
Eight Hat Concerns for
Two Months Have Been
in Wage Dispute

Danbury, Conn.,, Aug. 2-(UP)-
A two-month dispute over wage
scales at eight hat manufacturing
concerns was settled today In a re-
port of the State Board of Media
ton and Arbitration.
The companies had sought to pro-
cure an approximate rs per cent
reduction in wages, while the max
ers, finishers and trimmers unions
insisted the bill Of prices in force
during the past year be continued.
The board announced makers
would be reduced from 7 1-2 to 10
per cent, and finishers and trim
mers 7 IL per cent, retroactive to
June l.
Chairman Clyde o. Fisher of the
board reported annual earnings OF
hat makers were declining and that
the difference in wage scales among
the various companies worked TO the
disadvantage of union employees.
Approximately 900 workers we're
affected by today decision.

eastern military region along the
100 miles of frontier opposite Bel

The decree really creates new

A preamble by President Albert

Coincidently the ministry of ma

work was progressing rapidly on the
final stages of the frontier border
defenses facing Belgium on the 100
mile Maubeuge-Strait of Dover

Work on this sector was started
only after completion OF the main
Maginot line of Notifications which
extend from Maubeuge to Belfort,
