 Drowning Yesterday

 The boys were walking near the lake when Kleineck's hat blew off and went on to the Ice. He ran after it and recovered it, but the ice broke as he was returning to shore. Sweeney went to his rescue, only to go through the ice himself.
 The rescurers were passing by in their cars when they saw the boys laundering in the water. Police and fire squads responded to an emergency call but there was no need for their services. The boys escaped with only a wetting.

month, as compared with III in January last year. There were only 9 personal injury accidents, as compared with Al in the same month last year. There was not a single automobile fatality.
 Statement
 Police Superintendent William J.. Roach today issued the following statement:
 "A campaign to turn the highways into safety roads and to save and protect the lives and property of motorist and pedestrian started January 30th. Throughout the na- ton there will be a, universal move merit to assure the success of this campaign. During this same week the insured automobile owners of Waterbury derived a great benefit from the campaign waged by the Accident Prevention Bureau and Investigating Squad of the Police Department. The police of Water bury have not just begun their cam paign to make Waterbury safe city but have been waging a relent- less battle for over a year to elim- mate accidents and their causes"
 Through the efforts of the Ac- cident Prevention Bureau and In- vestigating Squad accident insur- ance rates have been reduced an- other 15 percent. This additional re- duction makes total of 35 percent in one year. Waterbury being the only city in the state given this re- duction should show to all that the work of the police has not been fruitless. We have no intentions of sitting back and resting on our laureis; this can be seen by the de- cided decrease in accidents for Jan uary 1888 over 1937."
 We stated during the entire year of 1887 that the citizens of Water bury by cooperating with us would be the beneficiaries to our efforts in reducing accidents. Still one of the most outstanding things to be emphasized will be for the driver to accept responsibility. Analysis of ac- cidents has proven that the largest percentage is due to carlessness in driving. Therefore it is a proven fact that when we obtain the co-opera- ton we need from the driver Wa terbury will achieve the distinction of being one of the nations safest cities"

 No Joint Demand
 The action of the three big naval powers was explained by officials as simultaneous and parallel but not joint. This method was made ne- cessary, it was explained, because all three are parties to the 1886 naval treaty; are jointly-bound by the limitation provisions of that treaty, and would be jointly men, aced by naval construction by some other power in excess of that treaty's limitations.
 The American note was dis patched to Japan, and the parallel action of Great Britain and France was announced few hours after Admiral William D. Leahy, chief of naval operations and ranking naval officer, refused to answer questions by member of the House Naval Affairs committee as to whether the United States had an understanding with Great Britain on naval mat ters in the Far East.
