I asked some peo- pie in New Haven about them, but they said they could only re- member the Clark boys when they, took cases against .FitzGerald or Murphy for the taichers. Well, Fran, anyway they can't deny that you took good care O them. because Charlie is now on the United States Circuit Court seat and Sam has a nice berth as counsel for the SEC.
 They do say, Fran, it was you who drove the engine for Bill Douglas and got MT. Roosevelt to give him the, appointment to the Supreme Court and think this is something that you can be proud of, because accordin' to the publicity Lawyer Douglas is a foin man, a grand lawyer and everything else, even if the boys around the Elm City can't remem- Der much about his paharty ac- tiyities when he lived there at Yale College and was teachin' up and comin' youngsters how to be lawyers like himself.
 You see, Fran, I try to tell them all this stuff ain't so, but I can't get very far, espess'ly when they come right back and say that you are for Cyril Coleman from Hart ford for district court judge. Sure and I know that the job was of fered to Pat O,Sullivan, but the boys ain't been able to trace that to you, espess-ly when Pat and Jim Farley are just like that, and the boys know 1t.
 Faith, Fran, now back in the ould country your fayther and my fayther of blessed memory had @ high regard for each other and they held themselves better any ould day than the English gentry, and when trey tangled with the latter they had Q word for 'em. which I have no need to repeat for you.

The Connecticut Conference on Social and Labor Legislation, in Q last-minute appeal before adjourn ,ment of the General Assembly, has written letters to all members of the state senate urging the establish ment of a state income tax. The tax would be paid by those with in- comes of more than $25O0 annually.
 Opposition is expressed in the let ter to the Republican-sponsored plan for automobile inspections by state police, which would require ihe addition of 50 new state troop srs to the force. It is claimed that S a move for patronage.
 The Conference opposes increased iquor taxes, and diversion of high vay funds.
 The letters sent to state senators cad as follows:
 Dear Senator:
 In these last few days of the Legislature, may I bring to your attention a few points in connec- tion with the state budget that is now before you.
 The budget makes no provision for graduated state income tax to cover the deficit in the general fund. Our organization is fully in agreement with the point of view that no further reduction can be sought in our social services, which have already been cut to the bone. However, we feel that no answer has yet been given to our claim that an income tax would be the most just way to meet the deficit. Without taking sides on the general question of liquor we feel that the eXpedient of adding to the liquor tax to meet this deficit is mistake since it will undeniably fall more heavily on the lower income brackets than on the higher,
 The budget also calls for the transference of certain funds from the highway fund to the general fund, and for certain expenses in connection with the State Police to be transferred from the general to tl1e highway fund. This can only lead, in our opinion, to re-

MINER IS FOUND IN
 BOTTOM OF SHAFT

Toluca, H., June 1.-(UP)-Two weeks ago, Dominic Valessano, IT, a former coal miner, disappeared. His neighbors feared he had fallen down the shaft of an abandoned mine near his home. They sum- moned state mine inspectors. The supporting beams of the shaft were so ramshackle the inspectors were unable to descend into the mine. They threw flares down the shaft and inspected the bottom as best they could through telescope. They found nothing. Yesterday Jack and Frank Gererdo, brother amateur photographers, attached a flash bulb to a camera, wired it, lowered it 421 feet to the bottom of the shaft and snapped several pictures.
 They developed the negatives last night. The pictures showed Vales- sano's mangled body at the bottom of the shaft.
