It's Just Another Dizzy Act
 In Tennessee Political Circus
By NEA Service

By NEA Service
 Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 1--When Judge Phil Wallace of First Crim-' inal Court looks down from the bench today and sees two attorneys general, only Tennessee's political feuding will be to blame.
 Both of the men will be there in the flesh, Marion Boyd and Joe Hanover. Each thinks he is the real attorney-general. The judges prob lem is to decide which is right.
 Hanover was appointed by Gov Gordon Browning to i'll the vac- ancy left by the death of Attorney General w. Tyler McLain on July 4. Hanover says this appointment entities him to hold office until 1940. .s
 Boyd ran for the office in the elections Aug. 4, sponsored by Boss" E. H. Crump and his anti Browning machine. He won, and was certified by the election com mission. ...rs.'
 A legal row centerS on. whether more than 30 days" as stipulated by law, had elapsed between, Mo- Lains death July 4 and the primary Aug. 4. Each side figures this hair breath interval in a different way.
 In the meantime, Governor Browning has refused commission to Boyd. Since the governor directs the state payroll, Boyd will get no pay from the state while Browning is in office, until Jan. 1. No assistant to Boyd can legally draw pay, eith- CT, since he is not duly commits stoned.
 Hanover also faces difficulties Part of the attorney generals sal- ary is paid by Shelby county, which will probably refuse to pay its share to Hanover if the county court de- cides in favor of Boyd.
 In fact, probably neither the county nor the state will pay either man until final determination of the mix-up is made by the State Supreme Court next year.

COMMITTEE TO
 HEAR CHARGES
Motor PatrOlman Accused By Landlord; Will Show
 His Receipts

The committee on men and dis cipline of the board of police com- missioners will hold a special meet ing at o'clock this afternoon to hear charges brought against Motor Patrolman Joseph Lovallo by his former landlord. The complaint is George BahIer, of Cheshire, who charged in letter to the police board several weeks ago that the policeman vacated a house owned by him on Greenleaf avenue while owing a rental bill of $75.
 Patrolman Lovallo has denied MT. Bahler's claims, and will exhibit re- ceipts which he says prove that his rent was paid in full before he moved from the dwelling owned by MT. Bahler.
 The complaint brought by the Cheshire man was referred to the committee on men and discipline by the entire board. The commit- tee will report back its findings to the board.
 Patrolman Lovallo moved from the house at the end of May. Bah Ter claims that rent for April and May was owed, as well as a previous bill of $5. The policeman says he has receipts to disprove this allega- ation.

 of Claims

An accident on Southington moun- tain during the fog of August Il, 1887 forms the basis of two common pleas court suits instituted today against the Consolidated Motors Lines, Inc, and one of its drivers, Joseph F.

 EDWARD o. GOSS
 Labor and industry will feel keenly the loss of Edward Otis Goss, president of the Scovill Manufacturing Company, who died at the age of 72. .4 r For MT. Goss was one of the history makers of Connecticut. He made history not only as an industrial tycoon, but as one of the progressively minded leaders of the state paved the way for more humane treatment of labor.
 Policies inaugurated by MT. Goss have done much to preserve harmonious relationships in Con- necticut industry, which to date has been relatively free from the costly and violent conflicts that have plagued other sections of the country.
 Poor in health for the past two years, he, nevertheless, continued his manifold duties to the end of his life. He had been identified with the Scovill concern for half century, and was president since 1920. To his family the Craftsman extends deepest sym pathy.

STILL COMPLAIN
 ABOUT CZECHS

Berlin, Sept. 1.-UP)-In an "open letter to Lord Runciman," the newspaper Angriff charged today that maltreated Sudeten Germans "are languishing" in prison cells in CzechoSlovakia
 Lord Runciman, you would be shocked" the letter said. You would ask are we living in the 20th century?'"
 The letter said Runciman had been told that all cells for political prisoners were empty, but that the 6udetens were held under false criminal charges.
 Lord Runciman," the letter add ed, you have your troubles but they are unimportant compared to the pain of a single terrified individual imprisoned for his belief in the right of self-government.
