 As it circled, it was alleged the plane crashed into the sea. The steamship crew rescued the two men aboard and handed them over to police at Zoppot to be questioned. The plane sank, 1t was said.
 Danzig and Poland were expected to start negotiations today to set- tie their new dispute which caused Poland to deliver what was called an ultimatum against interference with Polish customs men on the east Prussian frontier of DanZig.
 Poland Tells Story
 Poland reported that Danzig had compiled with the "ultimatum." Dan1g officials said, however, that there had been no acceptance of the Polish "ultimatum" because Danzig had never intended to interfere with Polish customs men and that there fore the occasion did not arise.
 It was added, however, in reliable quarter that DanZig would reject the Polish note as whole as pro- vocation" and as based on rumors.
 The new dispute started with a claim by Danzig that Poland was strengthening her customs personnel with men whose training and duties were more of a military than civil ian nature.
 The Danzig version was that the Danzig senate, the ruling body, an- nounced that Danzig would distin- guish between frontier guards and customs officials, and would not recognize frontier guards as cus- toms men.

yictions on the ground that nc constitutional question had been brought up.
 Decision of Judge
 Memorandum on Dumurrers to
 Inf0rmations
 Section 6246 of the General Stat utes which is under attack by these demurrers, differs in one aspect Of great legal significance from the Massachusetts statute which was upheld in the Commonwealth " Gardner case. In our statute there is a sweeping prohibition against the use" of articles, whereas In Massachusetts 1t is the trafficking in them which is forbidden. There thus comes into consideration o1 our statute the constitutional ques- ton raised in the brief in behalf of the defendants. It is not at all inconceivable that with this im- portant distinction the supreme court of the United States would have found 8 substantial federal question of constitutional rights. In the Gardner case the court said: "The relief here urged must be sought from the law-making de- partment and not from the judicial department of government" In these cases the answer can well be made that for years in Connecticut such suggested relief has been sought and always denied through confusion of the real issue in- volved.
 No decent person would deny the laudable objective of morality and chastity which it sought. It is, how ever, common knowledge that many legislators voting against recogniz- ing the medical aspect of the prob- lem, appease intellectual integrity Dy ', specious argument that reputable doctors and respectable married women will not be affected. It is against this easy doctrine of in' consistency that high-minded mem' bers of the medical profession have inveighed. Now comes the test. Int State has seen fit to raise in a test case and by gratuitously including this feat e in the informations, the right of a doctor to prescribe. The unaided language of the statute would offer no defense to doctor facing prosecutions for viola ton of it. Thus the question which must be determined is this: If doctor to be prosecuted as a crim- inal for doing something that f sound and right in the best tenet: and traditions cf high calling dedi. cated a....d devoted to health? Should he be forced to practice furtively and in stealth rather than give uT what his conscience and his honest professional judgment dictate?
 The court has no right to reat exceptions into the statute but t convinced that without these proper executions, the statute is defective on the broad constitutional ground. set up in the demurrers. It woule seem most desirable to have judic. ially determined once and for al a question 50 heatedly and so flu. tiley debated at each legislative ses' sion.
 Therefore, for the reasons therein state, the demurrer in each of thu above cases is sustained.

This would limit the salary item In any department in any one month to one-twelfth of the total for the wear. and in any one week to one- fifty second of the total.

Organization of the large staff
which will handle arrangements for
the Presidents Cup Regatta, sched-
uled September 22-24 off Hains
Point, was completed last night with
the appointments of William C.
Shelton as chairman of the Enter
tainment Committee, and Samuel

Committee. Regatta officials now
are prepared to handle everything
from box seats to spark plugs for
the powerful speed craft.
G. r. Wilhelm, chairman of the
Ticket Committee, announces a brisk
sale of boxes with many excellent
seats remaining. The regatta is
financed largely through the sale
of boxes, which are priced at 1920
for the entire three days-including
sailing races and night water
pageant, and contain six seats each.
Tickets may be obtained from
Wilhelm at 725 Thirteenth street
NV.
The Presidents Cup of course,
heads the list of trophies up for
competition, and the famed mug has
just about doubled in value over
its original cost of $1,000 since first
placed in competition. Winners Of
the cup retain possession for one
year, but keep miniature for their
permanent collections.
