A sorrowing congregation that thronged the Church of SS.

 The funeral was held at 8:15 this morning from the home, to the church, where the mass was offered at g o'clock. Burial was in Calvary cemetery.
 Scores of relatives and friends at- tended the funeral. Last night the Grady home was crowded with those who came to offer their sympathy to the parents. Members of the East End Community club went to the home in body. Dozens of floral tributes were received.
 The funeral today closed the last page on one of the most pathetic cases in local history. All through the two months between Jackie's disappearance and the recovery of his body, his parents clung to the hope that he might be some time returned to them alive.
 The youngsters disappearance after going out to play March a resulted in one of the most wide- spread searches in the annals of the state. Literally hundreds of persons

 In her will, filed some time ago, Mrs. Albert provided bequests for several friends and relatives and for a number of Jewish organiza- tions. The residue of the estate is lclt tO tlcI iluSUdllu 1Ol l1C uoC, anu on his death is to be shared by her children. The bequeStS include those of $1.000 to each grandchild.

HIGHWAY TOLLS
 ARE ADVANCED
Legislative Com. o. Ks Scheme to Defray Cost
 of Road Extension

Hartford, Conn.,, May 20-UP)- Connecticut today took the first step towards establishing tolls on its super-highways.
 The legislative roads, rivers and bridges committee approved a bill establishing a 10-cent toll on the Merritt Parkway to finance exten- sion of this hignway into the pro- posed Wilbur L. Cross highway around New Haven and up to Hart ford.
 Two tolls stations would be es- tablished-at Greenwich and Mil- ford.
 Commuters tickets could be pur- chased, under terms of the measure, for $10 annually at the Greenwich station, and $15 at Milford.
 Tn addition to the toll plan, the bill provided that five per cent be taken from the highway fund to finance the cross highway. Provis- ion also was made for issuance of $12,000,000 in bonds, if necessary.
 The administration of Republican Gov. Baldwin recently reiterated its position as that of favoring tolls on highways and bridges only where alternate free routes were available.
 The committee also approved con- struction of two new bridges, to be financed by tolls, over the Connec- ticut river at Hartford, and over the Thames river at New London.
 The cost of the Hartford bridge was estibated at from $6,000, 900 to $8,000,000. The Thames river bridge probably will approximate this amount.
 The committee voted favorable report on another measure propoS- ing building new high-speed high way atop the dike bordering the Connecticut river at Hartford.
 Purpose of the highway was to divert through traffic from the cen- ter of Hartford. No toll provisions for this project were included. Costs would be paid by the state highway division from its regular funds.

month, will mark the start of the campaign.
 Curiously enough, the Republican party, some of whose leaders have been anticipating an easy victory in the city election, faces bitter fac tional battle. Italian Republicans are prepared to insist that Alder manic President Patrick Perriello be the COP. candidate for mayor. If he is not conceded the nomination, and it appears virtually certain that he will not be. Italian Republicans are planning to start a primary fight. Such battle would seriously hamper hopes of Republican vic- tory in the fall.
 A primary contest may also be in order on the Democratic side. One of the participants would undoubt- edly be Senator George T. Culhane who almost won the mayoralty two years ago while running on Fusion ticket, supported by Republicans and Independent Democrats.
 The Independent Democratic party apparently plans to play an active part in the campaign. even though number of its leaders have re- turned to the regular Democratic ranks. But there are still efforts in the Independent Democratic party to effect a compromise with the regular party organization, per- haps by realignment of the town committee so that the Independents would be given recognition. [,
 It would not be at all surprising If new party enters the field this fall Already there is considerable talk of Citizens party, or a party bear ing some similar label.
 The Socialists, ordinarily a nonen- tity in local politics, expect to make a strong showing this year. The leading candidate for the party's nomination for mayor is Attorney Frederic o. Smedley, who has been prominent in the Citizens Good Government Association and the Merit System Association.
 All speculation, of course, is de-

ATLANTIC PLANE
 SERVICE BEGINS
Commercial Flight Started on l2th Anniversary of
 Lindbergh Epoch

Port Washington, N. Y, May 20 - (U.P0 - Transatlantic commercial airplane service began today on the 18th anniversary of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh's nonstop flight to Paris in single-engine monoplane
 He was expected to be present when Pan American Airways' giant four-engine Al 1-2 ton Yankee Clip per roars out across Manhasset Bay on the first scheduled commercial flight between the United States and Europe.
 The route is Horta, the Azores, to Lisbon, Portugal, to Marselles, France, 4,500 miles from New York or some 1,2O0 miles further than Lindbergh flew in the Spirit of St. Louis in 1927. It will unload its car- go of mail and proceed to South ampton, England, its chief Euro pean base.
 It will carry 100000 pieces of mail weighing 1.500 pounds; crew of F commanded by Captain Arthur E. Laporte, two stewards and two other employees. Passengers can not be carried until the line has con- pleted five regularly scheduled round trips. It expects to fill this require ment during the next two months and then begin passenger service.
 The Clipper left Baltimore early today and was due at its base here, beyond the Worlds Fair on Long Island, just before noon. It takes of for Europe about l p. m.
 o. V. Whitney. chief executive officer, announced the flight an hour after the Civil Aeronautics Author ity approved the lines application for a certificate of convenience and necessity for transatlantic service
 The line thus became the first to institute regular Atlantic service Only two round-trips week are authorized.
 Pan American can use either the northern route by way of Canada and Ireland or the southern, includ- ing a stop at Hamilton. Bermuda. ir emergencies. It may also land pas sengers and mail either at New York or Baltimore and Marseilles ol Southampton, depending on thu weather.
 The government has appropriated 3l TOO 900 for transatlantic airmai service in 1889 and s005.000 for i94l with the aim of getting the jump or British, French and German air Hines planning similar services.

States Accountant Warren M. Brown will conclude his direct tes- timony in the Waterbury conspir- acy case Tuesday when the 24th week of the trial will be convened in superior court. It will mark the eighth day of his testimony in the trial. He would have finished his states evidence yesterday but for the illness of former Controller Daniel J. Leary, which necessitated an adjournment.
 Unless Special Prosecutor Hugh M. Alcorn has a surprise witness or witnesses who will testify for any protracted period-and unless de- fense counsel put Brown to a cross examination as lengthy as that to which James P. Purcell was sub- jected, the state is expected to rest its case within a very few weeks.
 Dr. Vincent T. Shea is of the opinion that. MT. Leary's illness, which caused the cancellation of yesterdays trial session, will not prevent him from attending ses- sions starting Tuesday of next week.

State Capitol, Hartford, May 20- Bitter debate over the city manager referendum for Waterbury is ex- pected when the measure sponsored by the Citizens Good Government association finally comes up for ac- tion. Several members of the senate, notably Senator John L. Sullivan of New Britain, are expected to join with Senator George T. Culhane of Waterbury in condemning the measure.
 It is expected that Senator Cul- hane, if he sees sufficient sentiment in the senate for passage of the referendum bill, will seek to have the referendum date changed to the summer. At present the bill calls for the referendum to be held Oct. 3, while Senator Culhane is under stood to feel that a referendum, is held at all. should be scheduled for the summer.
 Lieut.. Gov. James L. McConaughy and Senator J. Howard Roberts of Thomaston have been lining up Re- publican votes for the bill, but nev- ertheless there are reports that sev- eral of the c. O. P. members of the upper house are opposed to the bill.
 Opponents of the referendum bill are prepared to claim that the pro- posed city manager charter has sev- eral provisions which violate the state constitution. One is said to be the section calling for the elimina- ton of the post of town clerk.
 Also to be claimed are alleged inc constituencies between sections of the charter and statutes adopted at this or previous sessions of the icglsla- tuEe.
