5000 Ton Steamship Ledo Will Slip From New York
 HarbOr Shortly

New York, July 3.-(UP)-The 5000 steamship Leda, painted black and equipped to repel magnet mines, will slip out of New York harbor under the cover of darkness and head for Ireland in the next few days with 8 cargo of wheat and other supplies.
 The American Friends of Irish Neutrality, announcing the Leda's preparations, said today that "her time of departure and destination be concealed for reasons of safety" "
 The Leda, purchased from Panama for $800,0 900, will fly the Irish flag, carry the Irish colors = green, white and orange-on her sides and deck, and be manned by an all-Irislh crew under Capt. William J. Henderson of Dublin. She will be the first ship to fly the Irish flag since Ireland won her independence in 1921.
 Two other ships recently purchaS- ed by Ireland through the maritime commission, the West GotomSka and West Neris, each about 5000 tons, are now being conditioned in gulf ports to carry wheat paid for with $500, 900 allocated for that purpose by President Roosevelt.
 Paul O'Dwyer, national chairman of the Ain, recalled that Ireland sent food to American colorastS in 1630 and predicted the Leda'S ar- rival would be "a day of thanksgiv- ing" for the hungry Irish.

 Mrs. Rose LaurO Seeks $50 Weekly for Support;
 Property Attached

Rose Lauro, Waterbury, brought suit for damages of $25 900 against Rocco Lauro and Filomena IAuFo, both of this city, in superior court today.
 Charging that her husband, Rocco Lauro, has failed to support her in accordance with their station in life, the plaintiR further seeks an al- lowance of $50 weekly for her sup port.
 Mrs. Lauro contends, in addition, that on May 23rd her husband co1- veyed three pieces of real estate located at the corner of Cherry and Maple Avenue, at 57 Cherry Street, and on the westerly side of Cherry Street to FiloHnena Lauro. She fur ther alleges that the reason for this action was to prevent the prop erty from being taken by legal processes to defraud her, and to prevent her from securing support from her husband.
 The plaintiff insists that Rocco Lauro derives Q large income from his business, and that he is fi- nancially able to provide the sup- port she seeks.
 Tn addition she claims reconvey- arce of the real estate from Filo- mena to Rocco Lauro, and such other relief as may be deemed ex pedient in the premises.
