Nineteen days of continuous tes- timony in the Waterbury conspir- acy trial were ended at 3 o'clock yesterday by James P. Purcell, city accountant, and star of the states case to date. Joseph P. Moore, an employe of Frankie Burns Santa lucia's Connecticut Supply com- pany, succeeded him on the stand.
 Seven of Purcelps 19 days of tes- timony, which started February 10, have been on cross examination. He breathed sigh of relief as he left the stand, but remained in the courtroom to hear arguments of At- torney George Crawford and Att torney Benjamin Slade seeking to have his testimony stricken from the record.
 Judge Ernest A. Inglis denied both attorneys motions, and Special Prosecutor Alcorn called his tenth witness.
 Before concluding his cross exam ination, the New Haven lawyer, Slade, asked Purcell, Do you en- tertain a most kindly friendship toward Mayor Hayes, MT. Leary and the other defendants"
 T bear no personal grudges, if that answers your question was the reply of Purcell, and when Slade pressed for a more direct answer he continued, T think they're as much my friends as they ever were" :"
 Before releasing the witness to the redirect examination of Special Prosecutor Alcor11, Atty. James D. c. Murray questioned him about sym bo,s used to identify appropria- tiors in the course of the city's financial operations.
 Symbols Confusing
 Several symbols were read to Pur- cell, and in many cases he could not give accurate and complete in- terpretations of them.
 You cont expect members of the board of finance to be sure about them if you aren't said Attorney Murray.
 T don't think the board of fi- nance did know" was the reply.
 That includes Mayor Hayes as a member of the board of finance?" asked Murray.
 Yes was the answer. Purcell also admitted that the suggestion includ- ed former Controller Leary. Mur- ray suggested that the symbols sug- gested signals of football quar- ter back.
 T think we all makes mistakes" said Purcell, when asked by Mur- ray if he did not want to admit he had made mistakes as the city s chief accountant.
 Purcell said that the present board of finance is just as much in the dark concerning the appropria- tiCn symbols, as was the board during the years 1932-1937.
 Purcell admitted that in a report tending to show the financial con- dition of the city as of September 30, 1888, rendered to Mayor Hayes and bank and bonding houses, he made an error of $36,O64.9O. He also admitted an error in the teachers fund estimate. Full blame for the mistake was assumed by Purcell.
 Following Murray's questioning Special Prosecutor Alcorn continued with the redirect, which was sur- prisingly brief. Enoch Borgnaes, the missing accountant was the sub- ject of his first question. In an- swer to it. Purcell said that he last saw the missing defendant the last Friday of December at The Elton.

Macdonald advised today.
DR.. Macdonald, District coroner,
will be in charge of first aid stations
along the parade route that day,
which probably will be a hot one
and heat prostrations are expected
if those in the crowd don't take
care of themselves.
To avoid having to 60 to one of
the first aid stations, DR.. Macdonald
suggests that it will help if you:
Eat good breakfast.
Drink plenty of cool water, but
not real cold water, during the
morning.
Move around slightly most of the
time and don't become tensely in
one spot.
Keep your head cool and pro-
tected from the sun-if it's very
hot. wear a helmet of some sort
with moisture inside it.
For those who may be overcome
by the heat despite all precautions.
there will be Red Cross first aid
tents at the northwest corners of
Fourteenth and E streets NV, Third
street and Pennsylvania avenue
NV. and First and D streets NE.
In addition, ambulances will be
stationed at every street intersec-
ton along the route.

that the change would make an

lowers, on the other hand, were sup
porting the six-point program which

statement that it would help to
keep this country out of war" Sem
ator Green, Democrat, of Rhode
Island commented:
Il think very favorably of the
recommendations. They are very
reasonable, and while theoretically
they might be better. they give con-
sideration to the practical situation. +"
Secretary Hull suggested that
American ships not be allowed to
enter combat areas and that travel
by Americans be restricted in such
areas.
He proposed re-enactment of
several provisions of the present
neutrality law, including a require
ment that the export of goods
destined for warning nations be
preceded by transfer of title to the
foreign purchaser.
He also would continue the laws
about loans and credits to bellig-
erents, would regulate the collection
In this country of funds for warning
nations, and would continue the
Munitions Control Board.
The present law, while banning
sale of arms when the act is in
voked, permits the sale of other
goods to the belligerents on a cash
and carry" basis. Discussing the
munitions embargo, Secretary Hull
said:
Il doubt whether we can help our
selves to keep out of war by an
attempt on our part to distinguish
between categories of exports. Yet
a complete embargo upon all ex-
ports would obviously be ruinous to
our economic life.
1T therefore seems clear that we
should have no general and auto
matte embargo inflexibly and rigidly
imposed on any class or group of
exports"

Entombed IS Hours,
Miner Is Dug Out
By Rescuers
PennsyIvonion Jokes
As Picks Toll THROUGH
Wall of Dirt
By the Associated Press.


SHENANDOAH, Pa, May 90
Laughing and joking with rescuers,
Robert Galligan, 38-year odd anthra-
cite miner, was dug out of a coal
hole early today, apparently unin-
jured after IS hours Imprisonment
under tons of rock and dirt.
Rescuers who had toiled unceas-
ingly, first with a steam shovel and
then with pick and shovel, reached
Galligan at 1885 am, E. S. T.
Hoisted up 75-foot shaft, Galligan
greeted fellow miners on the surface
with give me cigarette and let me
sit down a while"
He was rushed to a hospital, where
physicians said he was suffering
slightly from shock.
A sudden slide Of rock trapped
the miner at 10 am, E. S. T., Friday
as he worked in the mine, one of the
many so-called bootleg" workings
which dot this Eastern PENNSYLVANIA
hard coal section. Two companions
escaped.
Galligan's 80 year = old father,
Patrick, who had kept vigil at the
scene from the time his sons plight
was learned, was among the several
hundred spectators who witnessed
the rescue. The son greeted his
father with, "Hyar. Pop, I'm okay
but little hungry"
Loose dirt covering Galligan's ref
uge, a small chamber which did not
cave in, made the rescuers task
doubly difficult. Toward the end the
rescuers worked two and three at
a time in space only four feet
square under the constant threat
that they too might become engulfed
by new slides.
A one-inch pipe driven through
the wall Of dirt into the miners
tomb early last night gave Galligan
air When the weary, mud-coated
rescuers shouted through the pipe
DO you want to come up?" he re-
piled, "Yowsah."
The rescuers reported they had
difficulty locating the trapped man
as they neared his shelter, although
they could hear him singing and
joking.

Britain IsPIeased
ByHu|| Proposals
For i. ). Neutrality
Plan Is Believed Best
ObtuinobIe in Face
Of IsoIotionists
BY WILLIAM H. SLOVENIAN.

LONDON, May 20. - Although
nothing is being said officially and
the newspapers so far have not
commented on the matter. the Brit
ish are, for obvious reasons, thor
oughly pleased with the six-point
American neutrality plan outlined
by Secretary of State Cordell Hull
to members of Congress over the
week end.
This plan, which would make it
possible in wartime for belligerents
to buy arms and other goods from
the United States as long as they
paid cash and furnished their
own transportation, would openly
though not legally-favor the British
and French and make it impossible
for their European enemies to buy
anything there. BY banning Amer
lean ships from trade with belliger-
ents, it would also make it easier
for the British and French to i'm
pose a strict naval blockade All
in all. it is regarded here as the
best that could possibly be expected
from an administration which is
constantly being badgered by isola-
tionists and from the American
people themselves. who, it is fully
recognized here, do not intend to
take sides in the next war before
it starts.
Direct participation by the United
States in the next war is still re-
garded here as probable, in the long
run, but as still not certain enough
to bank on. The British are also
fully aware that they would jeop-
ardize rather than increase the
chances of American participation
by forcing the matter in any way.
So it is that on occasions like this,
when the administration is patient
ly trying to do something that would
help the allied cause in case of war,
both British of1icialdom and the
press are inclined to deep silence.
Opinion in regard to the proba-
bility Of American participation in
war varies from time to time. Last
September the chances were thought
by most Englishmen to be fairly
slim, an opinion which was not fully
shared by responsible officials Dur
ing the last few months many people
returning from the other side of the
Atlantic have expressed the opinion
that the chances of Americas early
entry into war had grown consider
ably; many of them have thought
that 1t might happen within the
first three months. On the other
hand, much Importance is attached
to the recent poll Of American opin-
ion showing that only II per cent
of all Americans would favor in
tervention.
Under the circumstances the Brit
ish feel that it is better to bide
their time, to 60 slowly, to say little,
and to hope that the Americans will
come plunging in early in the game,
once the trouble has started. A good
many important officials believe that
just this will happen.

Characteristically, he took off for

Tommy's hometown friends voiced

many, after learning that he prob

pressed doubt that he would reach
Europe safely.
