YOUTHS TO MAKE
 FULL RESTITUTION
Given Chance to Make Good; On Woman Law.

Two youths, Earl Monroe, 20, of 64s North Riverside street and Francis L. Guian, ls, of Is Green street, arraigned in municipal court today, charged with breaking and entering a home on Berkeley court, received deferred sentences of eight weeks and were turned over to the custody of the probation officer by Judge T.

 Prosecuting Attorney William K Lawlor corrcborated Miss Hanlon's statement to the court as did Ser geant Mariana who took the witness stand that the loot was recovered With the exception of the heater.
 The prosecutor said the total value of the stolen articles was SIPS. Miss Hanlon said the minor cffend- CTS told her that they were drink ing and did not know what they were doing.

DRENCHINC RAIN
 IS BADLY NEEDED
New England Wants It for Six Days to Relieve
 Present Drought

Boston, Sept. 26.-(Up)-Slx days of drenching rain would be neces- sary to break New England's drought and there is no relief in sight, the weather bureau said today.
 Already two huge Maine pulp mills were shut down and emergency water regulations were imposed at Worcester, Massachusetts second largest city, as the six states faced the most serious water shortage in six years.
 Senior Meteorologist c. Harold Moves said any heavy rainfall this autumn would merely wet the top soil"
 We will need two years of nor nal or slightly above normal rain- fall to i'll lakes and streams and other major water supply sources, " he said.
 "The last three years had been unusually dry. In that period we have had only seven months of ade- quate or more than normal rain- fall. A weeks heavy rain now would alleviate the serious crop conditions and forest fire hazards but 1t would do little to aid the water supply shortage"
 With water for Worcester being pumped at the rate of 10000, 900 gallons daily from the Quinapoxet to the Kendall reservoir, the city public health officials declared an emergency" existed. They ordered fines of not less than $20 for viola tions of regulations that included a ban on sprinkling gardens or streets or permitting unnecessary leaks.
 The Eastern Corp. temporarily closed pulp mills at South Brewer and Orono, Me, where 150 were em- ployed. The Bangor, Me, hydro Electric Go. with stations on the Penobscot and Union rivers said certain curtailments had been made to secondary power customers be- cause low water affected turbines.
