WHEELER
 GIVEN 30 DAYS
Prospect Man Jailed for Failing to Obey Court and
 Support Family

Clyde Howard Wheeler of Pros- pect was found guilty of contempt of court by Judge John Rufus Booth in superior court today and sentenced to 30 days in New Haven county jail for failing to obey 8 court order regarding support of his family.
 The jurist suggested, however, that counsel in the case confer fur ther before the man is committed and try to determine if the neces- sary payments could be mace.
 The action was brought by his divorced wife, Della May Wheeler of Waterbury, who claimed the SIS per week allowance ordered for the support of two minor children has not been paid each week. The accused man testified that he was unable to pay more than $15 weekly. However, he had filed no motion for modification of thu court order, the jurist pointed out, and conse- quently was in contempt of court.
 A capias writ was ordered issued for Walter J. Hungerford of Wa terbury so that he might be brought into court to answer to contempt charge made by his divorced wife, Alma May Hungerford, also of. this city. In a complaint filed in the court the petitioner claims her ex- husband has failed to pay the SIP per week alimony ordered. The divorce was granted Feb. 5, 1887 and no payments have been made since May 12 of that year, 1t is alleged.

Controversies Would De- tract From Allied MiIi=
 tary Effort

Boston, Nov. 6.-(UP)-Supreme Court Justice Frank Murphy be- lieves that the United Nations must avoid controversies over war aims which would distract from the mili- tary effort.
 Referring to Wendell Willkie's re- cent statement that this nation was losing good will in some quarters by failing to define it's war aims clearly, Justice Murphy tod the Advertising club of Boston last night:
 Are we not all fighting for the same end-to save the world and ourselves from possible domination by two powerful military regimes?
 We should never lose sight of those larger objections outlined in the Atlantic charter as the neces- sary conditions of enduring peace These objectives apply to all peo- ples everywhere.
 with the danger Of defeat or oven stalemate ever confronting us," Justice Murphy said, 'it is of the utmost importance that we avoid a controversy that might i'm pair the spirit of loyal comradeship which happily exists between our people and the people of the Brit ish dominlons and our other allies
