be heard before next October.
Lawyers involved In the conspir-
acy trial with the exception Of Atty.
James D. g. Murray Of New York,
counsel for former Mayor Frank
Hayes, were present In court this
morning and went into conference
with States Atty. Hugh M. Alcorn,
Of Hartford county, who prosecuted
the conspiracy case on the matter
OF expedlting the Supreme Court
hearing. Mr.. Alcorn opposes the
typewriter proposal.
Some Of the attorneys were IN
favor OF the most expeditions ac-
ton possible, but others sought de-
lay and the conference between the
attorneys was expected TO last into
the afternoon.
Judge Inglis In his telephone
communication with Clerk Freeman
asserted that there was really no
reason for him coming to Water
bury inasmuch as the Supreme Court
rather than himself would have the
final say as to whether the evidence
would have to be printed or the
typewriter copy Of 1t accepted.
Under ordinary court procedure
person appealing to the Supreme
Court Is compelled to have the EVIL
dence In his case printed for the
convenience Of the Supreme Court
Justices. The evidence In the con-
spiracy case Is the most voluminous
ever compiled In the states history
and the printing would cost thou
sands of dollars.

Of 1t.
Berlin, Jan. 8-4(UP)-After four
months OF war Germans have be-
come accustomed to a rationing
system which affects virtually every
necessity Of life.
Food, clothing, shoes, soap and
gasoline all are rigidly rationed and
many "luxuries"-coffee, tea, candy,
olive oil, toilet paper, cocoa and
rubber and leather goods are now
"luxuries"-have disappeared alto

But the average German appears
to be getting along all right on a

pounds, margarine, 20 pounds; lard
or bacon, IA pounds: cheese, IA

FISH HANDLERS
STRIKE AVERTED
Health Order Prohibiting
3-Tined Forks on Boats
Is Moderated

Boston, Jan. 6-(UP)--A threat
ened strike Of 5000 fiish handlers at
the Boston fish pier against a
health order prohibiting the use Of
three-tined forks In removing fish
from vessels holds was averted
today through o compromise.
Three.tined forks will be used
as they have for three centuries
under the agreement reached last
night by A. r. LIS Atlantic Fisher
mems Union and DR.. Henry r. r.
Watts, Boston health commissioner
One-tined fork, however, must
be used once the Ash are on the
piers, the prong TO be stuck In the
head which later Is cut 90 and not
sold for public consumption.
The health departments order
was based on o U. 8. Fisheries
Bureau condemnation Of the use Of
forks on grounds they contaminat.
ed the fish.
Watts agreed that hardships
would be imposed on handlers were
they forced to remove fish by hand
from the ice-packed holds. The
union agreed that abandonment Of
the three.tined fork for q one-tine
fork on the piers would be reason
able.
The conferees agreed to work for
eventual abandonment Of the use Of
forks at the pier.
The fish were moved from holds
by crewmen on the eight vessels at
the pier when about $50 union men,
who normally unload, refused to use
the one-tined fork. The Ash were
dumped from baskets, filled In the
holds, into carts and weighed In the
carts, to eliminate the usual second
handling.
Because Of q union contract barr
Ing strikes until March IS, union
officials said they had Suggested
that the ships crews handle the
fish. Under the contract workers
could be assessed o cent @ pound
for fish not delivered after It had
been sold.

sia rations only coffee and sugar.
King, Queen Start It?
Prepared to set an example for
their countrymen and women, the
king and queen were among the
first to start voluntary rationing.
Queen Elizabeth drew up menus
trimming luncheons and dinners to
essentials, with vegetables from
widely extended gardens In the
grounds Of Windsor castle offset
ting the diminution In articles
which are likely to be restricted.
When meat Is rationed 1t Is pro-
posed to exempt rabbits, poultry,
