submitting false and misleading re- ports of audits to the city, and re- ceiving exorbitant fees. The other defendants were all sentenced to states prison and 10 of them re- ceived fines totaling $5,000.
 The second argument will be made by Atty. Samuel Persky of New Ha- ven, counsel for John $. Johnston, of New York, and Henry Minor, former police and fire commissioner, Accused of receiving almost $200, 0,000 from the city between 193l-37 for imaginary services and kicking back" the, greater portion of the money to city officials, Johnston was given 2 to years in prison and fined $500. As chairman of the police board and member of the fire board, Minor was charged with receiving $12000 from the city for dubious services, the exact nature of which, the state claimed, had never been satisfactorily explained. Minor was given to 5 years in prison and fined $500.
 Since the IA men were sentenced by Judge Ernest A. Inglis on Aug. 2l, 1889, five days after their con- victions, they have been at liberty in bonds totaling $307,500, most ot the amount being in property. Total . bonds posted by the 20 men sen- tenced to jail and prison amounted to $387 800, but since then six of the men withdrew their appeals and have served or are still serving their terms. Twenty-two men were convicted of the conspiracy, two of them pleading guilty.
 e Attorney Cassidy Next
 The third appeal argument will be made by Atty. John H. Cassidy, {. counsel for Frank Santalucia, con- tractor; Charles s. OConnor, for . mer corporation counsel; and James P. Healey, contractor. Operator ot the Connecticut Supply Co.,, and said by the state to be a favored contractor receiving $160,000 from the city for questionable services. Santalucia was given 4 to 8 years in prison and fined $500, Healey who was also listed as ravored con- tractor to whom the city paid more than $38,000 in four years, is ap- pealing a 3 to years prison term sand a fine of $500. Both Santalucia and Healey were accused of "kck- ling back" some of the money to city officials.
 OConnor was city corporation ecounsel for more than IA years Given a 2 to 6 year prison term and "a $500 fine, he was accused Of re- sceiving funds in excess of his salary and surrendering to Mayor Hayes his right to hire extra counsel for the city. He was also charged with

it said. "The challenge did not once go unheard and we shall not pause or rest until victory is ours We shall not be content until in due season we achieve the downfall of aggressive militarisan upon the youth of Britain, the peace and beauty of the postwar world will largely depend"
 French Appeal
 Vichy, France, Nov. 11-CUP)-- Premier Marshal Henri Philippe Petain appealed in an Armistice day message for charity in behalf of prisoners of war, homeless refugees and jobleSs persons.
 There was no official observance of the holiday but Petain attended 8 memorial mass at the Clermont- Ferrand cathedral at Il a. m. and placed a wreath on a monument honoring World war dead. The ob- servance took on a religious char acter in all France.

failing to keep e proper account of his petty cash fund.
 10 Hours of Argument
 The defense attorneys have 10 hours allotted to them to complete their appeal arguments. The same length of time has been given to Special Prosecutor Hugh M. Alcorn who is expected to begin his argu- ment Thursday. MT. Alcorn will pro- bably use but small portion of his time.
 The fourth argument for the de- fense will be made by Atty. Ben- jamine Slade, of New Haven, coun- sel for George H. Kingsley and John Meany, members of the New York auditing firm of George H. Kings ley and Go. Kingsley, who had charge of the city's accounting until 1888, was given to years in pris- on and $500 fine for allegedly charging exorbitant fees and rem dering false and misleading reports in pursuance of the conspiracy.
 Atty. Albert Hummel, counsel for Thomas J. Fleming, former super intendent of streets, will make the fifth argument. Given 1 to years and a $500 fine, Fleming was char ged with destroying records showing the rates paid to favored truckers and contractors.
 The sixth argument will be made by Atty. Fred Warehouse, counsel for former Controller Daniel J.. Leary, who is appealing 10 to IS year prison term. The state claimed that the Waterbury corruption flourished largely through Leary's incumbency as controller during the years 1930-38.
 Next of Arguments
 The next argument will be made by Atty William Holihan, of Hart ford, counsel for Martin Dunn, for mer city purchasing agent, who was given to years and $500 fine, for allegedly participating in the destruction of city records in Dec ember 1887. The state claimed he padlocked the store room door prior to the destruction.
 Atty. Sidney Cassel, counsel for Phillip Coppeto, contractor. will make the eighth argument. Operator of the Abrigador Diggers of Water bury, Coppeto was given to 8 years and fined $500. The state charged that he received more than $800,00 from the city for alleged services and that he kicked back large portion to city officials.
 Argument For Kelly
 The argument in behalf of Thom- as P Kelly, former executive sec- retary to Mayor Hayes, will be made ninth by Atty. Thomas F. McDon- ough. Only Hayes ard Leary re- ceived more severe penalty than Kelly, who was given to l2 years in prison as the alleged chimney sweep" of the Hayes regime. One of the confessed conspirators, Ed ward G. Levy, testified that he kick ed back to Kelly more than $lO0,000 of the $126,000 the city paid him un- der lighting contract. The state also charged that Kelly tried to buy Levy's silence with $8000.
 Members of the supreme court who will hear the appeals are Chief Justice William M. Maltbie; Justic- es Allyn L. Brown, Christopher L.. Avery, Newell Jennings, and Super for Court Judge Edwin c. Dicken- son, who is replacing Justice Arthur F. Els.

 administration on domestic policies, but has been a staunch supporter of its froeign policy, including the reciprocal trade agreements pro- gram which Pittman opposed.
 Not Until January
 Pittmans post as president pro- tempore of the Senate probably will not be filled until the new Congress meets in January. There had been some doubt of the power of any senator remaining in Washington to convene the Senate since Vice President John N. Garner still is at Uvalde, Tex. But before Pittman left he appointed Sen. William H. King, D., Utah, acting president pro- -tempore. In any event most senators believed Democratic leader Alben w. Barkley could call the Senate into session.
 Administration leaders have been trying to adjourn the present ses- Sion, which began last January, by next Monday. But Republicans have insisted that Congress remain on the job to keep close check on the presidents conduct of foreign affairs. MT. Roosevelt is to confer with Senate and House Democratic leaders early this week on adjourn ment plans.
 The death of the late Speaker William B. Bankhead was attrib- uted in many circles to overwork during an extraordinarily long ses- sion. Sen. Pat McCarran, D., New. Pittman's colleague, is confined to naval hospital here by an illness which his doctors say was caused by overwork.
 Pittman's friends in both the House and Senate leave on a Spe- cial train today for Reno, where funeral services will be held Thurs day afternoon. The entire Senate and 20 members of the House have been invited to attend. The train arrives in Chicago at $50 a. m. Tuesday, and in Reno at l2:40 p. m. Thursday.
 Capital Shocked
 Pittman's death was shock here. He had served continuously in the Senate since Jan. 29, 1913 and was outranked in seniority only by Sens. Ellison D. Smith, D., s. C., and Henry F. Ashurst, D., Ariz. He and Sen. Morris Sheppard, D., Tex. would have ranked second in ser- vice during the next Congress since Ashurst was defeated in the pri- mary this year.
 President Roosevelt sent this mes- sage to Mrs. Pittman who had flown to the senator's bedside when he first collapsed early last week:
 T am shocked and deeply grieved by the news of the sudden and un- expected passing of my old friend Key. The nation loses his guiding hand as president pro-tempore oi the Senate and as chairman of the great committee on foreign rela' tions in a time of world crisis when his leadership will be greatly missed
 T personally mourn the loss Of friend of 30 years standing on whose loyalty I could always de- pend. My heart goes out to you in deepest sympathy in which Mrs Roosevelt joins"

In 1908, an obscure German cor- poral lay on a hospital bed in Pom erania and "blushed with burning rage and shame" that the German military might had cracked and Re- publicanism had arisen in the Reich.
 (In 194O, Adolf Hitler, his burning shame forgotten, told Germany and the world that he was the hardest and most absolute ruler it had ever had, and that this war would be won without compromise0
 Scenes Duplicated
 In 1918, Marshal Ferdinand Foch sat in railroad dining car in gloomy Compiegne forest and dic- tated the terms on which defeated Germany might sue for an armistice to avoid complete destruction.
 (In 194O, Hitler stood in the rail- road car in the same forest and formally received the emissaries of defeated France, seeking an armis- tice in the name of Marshall Henri Petain who had been at Foch,s right hand in Frances day of greatest victory)
 Twenty-two years ago, French man named Georges Clemenceau and a Welshman named David Lloyd George, who was destined to see disaster come again, crushed a broken Germany to the earth and circled her with armed foes that she might never rise again.
 (In 194O Germany over ran the continent and bound France in serv- itude.)
 In 1918, peace came to Europe's little people, such as those of the Balkans. They thought that war had brought them to the threshold of a new era.
 Towards Show Down
 (Today the armed power of Great Britain and the Axis powers surges toward a showdown in the moun- tains of Albania and Greece and all of the Balkans shudder under the imminent threat of another war.)
 Nineteen hundred and eighteen was 8 year of hunger and hope; of revolt against the past and rejoicing in the future.
 Babies born that year are grown up now Their hands touch the controls of bomberS over Berlin; of U-boats lurking of Ireland; of cannon On the mountain roads of Greece; of machines everywhere turning out weapons for war.
 Perhaps beyond the deadly puff of anti-aircraft shells; and beyond the submarine torpedo sights there will rise against the ancient ideal of a friendly world.
 But not today,
 Unnoticed In England
 London, Nov. 11-(UP)-The 22nd anniversary of the World war arm istice passed almost unnoticed to- day.
 Armistice day was recalled in yes- terday's sermons; there were a few sellers of remembrance peoples" on the streets between air raid alarms today; wraths were being laid at the foot of the Cenotaph and at monuments throughout the country in behalf of the royal family and patriotic organizations, but work went on as usual, the moment of silence at II a. m. was omitted and crowds were forbidden to gather lest they become bomb targets.
 Gen. WladiSlaw Sikorski, premier of the refugee Polish government issued an order of the day con- memorating Poland's rebirth on Nov. II, 1918. It said two factors pointing to a democratic victory in the war were the resistance of Greece and the reelection of Presi- dent Roosevelt.
 A joint message to British schools was issued by the admiralty, war and air ministries.
 More and more the call comes to us to defend liberty and humanity
