 BY SENATOR ECAN

(CO0ClDued rom Page l) session by Senator Culhane and Rep. Martin Whalen of Wolcott Rep. Hugo Guastaferri is preparing several bills.
 Backs Up Promise
 In a statement a few days before being sworn in as Senator from the 18th District, Senator Egan an- nounced his intention of introduc- ing bill to eliminate one of the three prosecutors posts in the City Court. He said that after study he was convinced that the court could function as efficiently with two prosecutors.
 The bill, will place Republicans in an embarrassing position. Its aim of economy is in line with G. O. P. platform pledges, but with Repub- Ncans controlling Senate and House and in a position to name City Court judges, who would appoint the prosecutors, passage of the bill would eliminate Republican plum"
 Record New Business Week
 Hartford, Conn, Jan. 16-(UP)- The General Assembly reconvenes tomorrow for what was expected to be record week of introduction of new business.
 Friday was the self-imposed deadline for introducing new bills. On that day also Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin will send to the Legis- lature his budget measure, which probably will call for widespread economies to keep expenditures within income.
 Committee organization virtually was completed and hearings were expected to begin as soon as the deadEne on new business becomes effective.
 Gov. Baldwin, meantime, refused comment on reports he may ap- point John J. Egan, secretary of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, as state labor commissioner, and former States Attorney Will liam H. Comley, as Superior Court judge.
 Comley is Gov. Baldwin's law partner.

TRUCK DRIVERS IN
 LOWELL STRIKE

Lowell, Mass, Jan. 16-(UP)-- Fifty extra police were called out today as a precautionary measure in the strike of 300 coal, fuel and transportation truck drivers for a 44-hour week and wage increases of $3 to $5 a week.
 The strike, voted last night by Local 49, came only five days after settlement of a Boston truck strike involving 5000 drivers of another To- cal of the International Brother hood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Sta- blemen and Helpers, an American Federation of Labor afflliate.
 Unlike the Boston strike, however, the Lowell strike involves no driv- CTS of food trucks, police said.
 Immediately afte; the strike was voted, pickets in communities bor- dering on Lowell began turning back trucks. Business Agent William F. Brooks of Local 49 said trucks pass ing through Lowell to other points would be allowed free movement, but those with freight destined to this city would be barred.

Lind bergh made a speech at Lady Astor's in which he said that Soviet avla- ton was in a chaotic state.

BLAME YOUR LIVER IT,

If your liver doesn't secrete 20 to 30 ounces of bile erery day into your intes- tines constipation with it's headaches, mental dullness and that "half-alive" feeling often result. So you see how im- portant it is to keep bile flowing freelyl And what finer aid could ono desire than Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, used so successfully for years by Dr. F. M. Edwards for treating his patients for constipation and sluggish liver bile.
 Olive Tablets are unsurpassed in ef- fectiveness because they stimulate liver bile to help digest fatty foods, they tone up muscular intestinal action at the same time help elimination.

 Manager George Emmett the Postal Telegraph office, ordinarily closing the office at o'clock Sum- day night, had made like arrange ments.
 The volume started before the broadcast over station WATR had concluded. It continued in heavy vein until 6:30 o'cuock, when t..ere was recess for some hours.
 Then another deluge of telegran1s came along and MT. Spiegel called back some of his employees who had been allowed to leave.
 More Telephone Action
 There was more telephone" busi- ness than at the time of the reor- ganization protest, however, and hundreds of persons called in their messages, asking the telegraph com panies' officials for the names of the congressman.
 In preparation for this, the con- panies had made out lists of the Connecticut representatives at Washington, five of whom are Re- publicans just startin their terms and apparently unknown" to many in Waterbury who joined in the protest
 Where Telegrams Went
 Most of the Waterbury messages went to United States Senator Fran cis T. Maloney and to Congressman J. Joseph Smith. But the telegraph companies were able to supply the list of the rest of the congressman, who are: Senator John A. Danaher, Representatives D. J. Monkiewicz, James Shanley, William J. Miller, Thomas R. Ball and Albert E. Aus tin.
 MT Spiegel said that the first message received at the local Vest ern Union office came in at 8 lew minutes before o'clock; the first at the Postal Telegraph arrived at 5:05 o'clock. The Western Union was ready at o'clock, however, with a full staff on hand.
 Volume Dwindles
 Some of the employees were allow ed to leave at 6:30 o'clock when the volume dwindled somewhat, but were called back at 10:30 o'clock when hundreds of messages started arriv- ing. A direct wire to Washinton was arranged and the Western Union handled several hundred mes sages up until 1:30 o'clock this morning.

"Himself or what he represents,
Matresser said thoughtfully.
She gave a little start.
"What do you mean by that?" she
asked.
81 could imagine him in other days
in other clothing" he explained, "as
the leader of savage tribe whose
ethics were to kill that they might
live. A simple code of existence. 1t
could lead to a lot of bloodshed, sup
pose, but it would also lead towards
security for the successful savage"
"What would like to know" Elisa
beth said, "is why he is spending his
time here-why he has come to this
place. Tragedy seemed to follow so
quickly in his footsteps"
."You don't suppose he had anything
to do with that poor chap Fergus

81 do not know" she replied deliber-
ately. Elbow should I know? A few

atmosphere"
GAIL since my return, apparently"
he observed.
"Well, you were rather a stormy
petrol, were you not?"
Mrs. Hewell brought in the tea
a real farmhouse tea with scenes and
jam and piles of buttered toast.
"I think that this storm is very for
tunate for u.s." Elisabeth said, as she
drew off her gloves and seated herself
in the chair which Matresser had
drawn up for her. "Now I make the
tea for you. This is an English do
nestle scene. Of course, it is all
wrong" she went on. 81 am not here
to be your sisters companion-not
ours"
"But see how naturally it has all
happened" he pointed out. "This is
your afternoon off. You go for a
walk. I meet you-a happy chance.
A storm arrives-another happy
chance. And we have tea together at
Mrs. Hewells'. It gives me the OPP
portunity to say something to you be-
fore I go away, something which I
knew I should say very soon but which

resser also was looking towards the
House but he remained silent.
Someone waved a handkerchief
from one of those windows" she de-
clared.
"It did look like it, didn't it," her
companion remarked indifferently.
"What room is that-the seventh
window from the left gable?"
"ITl have to Think" Matresser an
swered. cts very near my own
study"
He shrugged his shoulders
"But who could be waving?"
He shrugged his shoulders.
Zone of the servants, I should I'M
agine," he suggested. "Anyone who
was in any of the room in the front
there, who happened to see him look
ing up for such long time, would
probably wave"
"Do you like Mr.. van Westrheene?"
she asked.
Horrible fellow" Matresser re-
piled, as they commenced the short
descent into the village. "He shoots
as we'll as most of us-a little better
as a matter of fact-but he is hate
fully inhuman."
They stood on the quay for few
minutes, but a sudden squat of snow
and sleet from eastwards drove them
into shelter. Matresser led the way
to the Inn. Mrs. Hewells was at the
door to greet them.
"I'm that glad" she said, "there's
a fine fire in the parlor. If you will
go right in I will be getting your lord
ship and the young lady some tea"
"Tea sounds very nice," Elisabeth
declared, sunless you think we ought
not to stay" she added turning to
Matresser.
"We'll risk it," he answered. ~
remember what Mrs. Hewells' butter
ed toast is like! Let me push your
chair up to the fire"
Zone moment" she begged.
She was standing at the window
looking across towards the harbor.
The rolling mists were rapidly becom
ing denser, but for one moment, there
was view of the Daphne. She point
ed it out to Matresser.
81 begin to WONDER" she observed,
whether that Dutchman has not TAX
en- a fancy to you. He brings his
boat in at tremendous risk, they all
say, the night you arrive, comes to
call on you the day afterwards and so
far as ! can see-T have noticed it
twice before-he spends half his time
with his field glasses examining the
whole front of the Great House"
"Not an easy fellow to forget if
you had once seen him." Matresser
remarked.
HE is the tallest man I have ever
met, except one of the Danish Royal
Family" she confided. "You will not
think me foolish, will you? I have
the feeling that cannot breathe, that
I cannot exist happily in the same
room with him. scarcely ate a mouth
full that night he was next me at din
der. He seems to draw all the air

piled, touching his hat and turning
away.
"And now, young lady," Matresser
asked, as they moved slowly on, side
by side, "what are you doing in my
woods?"
Seeking solitude" she confided
"The house is full of people this at
ternoon. There is a sort Of squash
tournament going on and all the neigh
borhood seem to have turned up"
"Thank heavens you've warned me-,
he sighed fervently. care you tired?"
She smiled in derision.
81 have only walked down from the
house," she said.
"Then we will go round the bottom
of the wood" he proposed, land come
out on the pier"
$50 long as we do not meet your
terrifying Dutchman," she laughed.
"This is an OCCASION" he declared
after few moments pause. "Do you
realize, Mademoiselle Elisabeth SIAM
Ter, that have never, practically talk
ed to you except when you have been
making magic with your fingers and
reducing my thoughts to pulp, or in
our rather overheated drawing rooms?
I like to be out of DOORS"
81, too",' she agreed. "Tell me
what you have been doing with your
gamekeeper."
He INDUCED in a slight grimace.
"The fates, coupled with the fact of
my advancing years, seem to have a.
greed that I shall now settle DOWN
whatever that means. I am taking
an interest in my belongings and, like
all selfish people, am beginning with
the things that I like best. Next week
I shall ride around to call on some of
the tenants. Just now am planning
out the work for Humphreys and the
other keepers to start upon directly
we have finished shooting"
There was a lack of enthusiasm in
her demeanor which he could scarcely
fail to notice.
81 suppose you think I ought to
leave my property to itself and look
further afield for occupation" he re-
marked.
81 would not presume" she said
gravely, "to criticize in any way,
but"
She hesitated.
"Wen?"
Zone sort of feels" she went on,
"that much of the practice side of
managing estates could be done in an
office and that the brains of the
world, the knowledge and experience
which you must have gained in all
your travels, even if they have been
chiefly for sport, might be better en-
ployed."
"You think that, do you?" he medi-
tated.
ct do indeed" she said firmly. "You
have been away from Europe for so
long that it must be hard for you to
realize, but to me and many others
who think about our countries at all,
it does seem as though a sort of
chaotic paralysis were creeping over
the world. If it is not lethargy, it is
disaster"
"You are in a serious frame of
mind" remarked Matresser to Elisa
beth.
81 am serious person." she told
him. 81 have every predisposition to-
wards frivolity. I want to play all
the time. I would love to find myself
in world in which there was no work
to be done and only music to trouble
ones senses, but it is not possible.

These are the days to quote our enemy
Hellstern-when a mans hand must
rest upon the sword"
"And a woman's? 2"
Her manner stiffened little.
"That was only allegorical, of
course. I think that all humanity, all
the nations-men, women and children
should be training themselves to do
something in life to restore the lost
balances"
"That sounds very depressing" he
admitted, especially coming from the
daughter of one of the gayest nations
in the civilized world"
"Once perhaps the gayest," she in
sisted. "Not now. Even you, if you
were to spend few months travelling
closer at home &. through my coun-
try for instance /. might see things
q little differently. It is the cities
and crowded places where human be-
ings still live that are worth redis-
covering And now," she con-
cluded, with a laugh. 81 have been
almost rude to my host. I have been
exceedingly impertinent. Let us talk
of something else."
81 am depressed" he said. "You
are very severe critic, Mademoisel-
lie Stamier. You do not seem to ap-
prove of me at ALL"
She made no reply. They had reach
ed the end of the lane skirting the
wood and Matresser leaned over the
gate looking thoughtfully across the
field to where the turrets and far
reaching front of the Great House
were visible. She looked up at him
questioningly.
"Admiring your property? ?" she in
quired with gentle sarcasm. eft is a
very magnificent mansion"
81 was engaged in a careful at
tempt at reconstruction" he acknowl-
edged. 81 was asking myself, in
short, why any human being who was
already half unconscious should have
stumbled down this lane, climbed over
this five-barred gate only to collapse
amongst those unpleasant looking tur-
nips."
els this the spot where Fergus was
found?"
"Within half dozen yards of this
gate. Probably in that little patch of
roots which seems to have been rath-
er disturbed. It was from here that
they took him to DR.. Andrews"
"Why did you bring me here?"
II will atone by taking you away
again." he answered with a smile.
"It does not really lead anywhere"
They retraced their steps and leaving
the lane at its junction with the main
road, turned towards the village.
Down in the harbor the Daphne was
rolling in strong swell coming in
against the tide. A threat of rain
was in the skies. The place was al
most deserted. AS they reached the
pier, however, mighty shape slowly
drew itself up from the hatch of the
Daphne. With legs wide apart and
keeping perfect balance, nothwithstand-
ing the roll of the boat van Westr-
heene raised pair of field glasses to
his eyes and stood gazing landmarks.
"Our Dutch friend does me the hon

parently," Matresser murmured, fol-
lowing the sweep of the glasses.
Elisabeth made no reply. For more
than minute they watched him, sea
going Colossus standing on the soles
of his widespread feet, motionless
and intent. Suddenly Elisabeth ut

-Speaking of Sports
Northwestern
Early Favorite
In Big 10 Race
BY ROBERT McSHANE

THE melancholy days are here
that time of the year when foot
ball coaches droop visibly, bringing
tears to the eyes of their followers
with sad, dismal stories of general
misfortune, lack of material and
tough schedules.
Some of the less fortunate coaches
haven't more than three or four top
notch players for any one spot, and
of course, see nothing but the black
est of futures ahead. Optimism on
the part of the coach amounts to
malfeasance in office.
However, close observers whose
bread and butter doesn't depend on
turning out championship football
team, see lot of great teams for
the coming season. Sophomores and
juniors, who saw lot of action
during the '38 season, will be turned
loose this year to really tear up the
nations gridirons.
In the Big Ten, Northwestern,
Minnesota and Michigan are expect
ed to share dictatOrial hOnOrs.
Coaches are pointing to Northwest
ern as the team to beat.
Lynn Waldorf, who guides North
western university's football desti-
ny, isn't cheerful over the outlook.

that's still on duty 1t might be all
right in quaint old-fashioned bed
rooms, but it certainly doesn't dc
anything for the living room. A new
wing chair in its place wouldn't
break the family bank.
As for that spindley desk you've
had for goodness knows how long
who ever uses it anyway? A secre-
tary or handsome breakfront cab
met wouldn't take up much more
wall space and would be a stunning
addition to the looks of the room.
Not to mention its usefulness.
In the dining room, is there any
good reason why you're hanging on
to that old china closet? A pair OF
corner cupboards in its place would
look smarter and show off your chi.
ma better.
In your bedroom, the chances are
that the rest of the furniture would
look all right if you replaced that
old dresser with handsome ches,
and an interesting mirror hung
above it.
