SOUTHBURY STAGES TRIAL OF CENTURY
Selectman Coer, Complains in Witness Both Found
 Guilty, Fined

The first selectman of the Town of Southbury, J. Edward Coer, was fined S25 on breach of the peace charges as the result of an alterca- tion at his home on May 2l after a hearing in the Town Court last night before Special Trial Justice Albert G. Clark of Middlebury. Jo- seph Cooper, named in cross con- plaint by Coer, was fined $l5 on a similar count.
 Both men appealed the decision to the Court of Common Pleas, and the court set bonds of $100 for each.
 The altercation, testimony show ed, occurred when Cooper came to Coer's home seeking repairs on the road in front of his house off the Jeremy Swamp road. Coer told him the road had been abandoned by the town and hot words followed, after which each man claimed the other hit him.
 Coer was represented by Attorney Lawrence L. Lewis, and Cooper by Attorney Joseph Perelmutter.
 The cases were presented by Spe- cial Prosecutor George H. Lynch of Middlebury, as the Southbury court personnel disqualified themselves.
 The hearing was witnessed by more than 70 residents of Southbury who crowded into the small court room in the Town Hall.
 After conclusion of the testimony Justice Clark declared the charge of breach of the peace covers wide latitude, ranging from the use of abusive or profane language to ac-

Mayor Monagan in Special Request Points Out Trans
 p0rtatiOn Difficulties

In accordance with the urgings of national transportation authorities Mayor John s. Monagan today is- sued statement asking the people of Waterbury to forego all un- necessary travel and take advantage of the recreational facilities of the city by spending their vacations at home. ...---
 The following is the text of the Mayors request:
 "The termination of the war in Europe has not ended the strain on our country's transportation system. If anything, the burden has been increased by the shift from the European to the Pacific theater.
 Responsible authorities say that the next twelve to fifteen months will be the most critical in the history of American trans portation. An intending stream of troop trains and vast shipments of military supplies must proceed to the West Coast, In addition, casualties from Europe must still be moved to our hospitals. The forbearance of our people will be more vital this year than ever before.
 Accordingly, I respectfully sug- gest that the people of Waterbury forego all unnecessary travel; that they spend their vacations at home and that they take advan- tage of the many fine recreational facilities in Waterbury and the surrounding areas

NEWS OF CONNECTICUT

Hartford, Conn, June 27.-(UP)- A superior court jury trying three convicts on charges of first degree murder in connection with the slay- ing of a state prison guard during an attempted escape last March, had an eyewitness account today of riot in the machine shop which preceded the fatal bludgeon- ing. .t.
 Frank Mckay, Elmwood, doing plumbing work in the shop when the attempted escape was staged, implicated two of the prisoners, James J. Mccarthy. 20, Danbury, and Arthur Tomaselli, 24, New Ha- ven, in the killing of Herbert O.. Paryell.
 Both of the convicts he said beat the guard with their fists and heavy wrench. Mckay said they threatened him with a pair of bar Der shears when he tried to rescue Parsell. The third accused prisoner, Raymond Lewis, 18, New Britain, he said, threw chair at him when he picked up a length of pipe to defend himself.
 The three were overpowered soon afterwards by other guards. Toma- selli was wounded in the hand while trying to pay window screen loose.
 Two of the prisoners are serving life terms for killings.
 Hartford, Conn.,, June 2 - (U.P.) Indications today were that the Superior Court fight to determine whether John T. Mccarthy, New town, or Colonel Elmer s. Watson, Wethersfeld, was legally entitled to hold the office of State Motor Ve- hicles Commissioner, would be re- served to the Supreme Court for de- cision.
 The case was before Superior Court Judge Edward J. Quinlan on quo warranto proceedings instituted by Mccarthy, who held the job for four years until his term expires June l.
 Watson was appointed by the governor after the senate failed to ratify his nomination. Watson claimed he was entitled to the cOm- missionerhip inasmuch as the sem ate faile dto act on his nomination within ten days after it had been submitted, and as required by law.

 Ringrose, deputy commissioner since 194l, was appointed as success sor to Thomas H. Lockhart, who is s4on military leave of absence and whose term expired June l. The governor said that the deputyship

MOTHER SUES FOR
 SONS INSURANCE
$30,OO0 Action Opens in U. s. District Court in
 Hartford

Trial of the $30,O0o civil action brought by Mrs. Rhoda s. Gaunt of Waterbury against the John Han- cock Mutual Life Insurance Com- pany, opened in the Hartford Fed eral District Court before Judge J. Joseph Smith, yesterday. The plain tiff seeks double indemnity for the death of her son, James A. Gaunt.
 The 22-year-old youth died from a bullet wound August 25, 1943. His body was found on railroad right of way in South Dakota. A life imprisonment sentence was imposed May 3, 1914 on Selmer Rasch who was accused of the staying
 Mrs. Gaunt claims her son signed an insurance policy three weeks before his death. The concern claims the youth made an applica- ton for a policy subject to the ap- proval of the home office. It claims the policy was never issued.
 The insurance concern contends further that young Gaunt was travelling on freight trains at the time of his death, and that that was a circumstance which would have prevented issuance of policy.

to be set aside for an actuarial re- serve.
 Under no circumstances should the liability of the city in respect of future service be handled except on a clear -cut actuarial basis. The city should not continue to go wrong as to the future, even if it post pones catching up on it's accrued liability
 Two Necessities
 "The only reasonable compromise, therefore which can be made be- tween the cash basis system, to which the pension bill as passed re- turns the city, and full actuarial reserve system Is one in which the city:
 I. Pays annually into the pen sion fund sum sufficient with employe contributions to set up a sound actuarial reserve to cover its | liabilities in respect to future serv- ice, from which portion of the fund shall be paid only such part of each future pension as is ascribable to service rendered after the amend ment of the act.
 g. Pays annually into the fund all pensions in force at the date of an additional sum sufficient to meet the amendment and such portion Of all future pensions as are ascrib- able to service prior to that date.
 An amendment of this sort would increase the expenditure of the city to begin with by something in the neighborhood of $200,0O0 in place of the $3090O0 necessary to care for liability in respect to prior service on an actuarial reserve basis. It is, however, the only course, short of a full actuarial reserve, which will not build up further pension deficits l for the city. Payments under CD above would in a few years become very burdensome, and the question of financing the city's accrued lia- bility would have to be faced. This course, therefore, is advisable only if there is really an advantage in postponing the final grapple with the problem.
 Tt is very important that the actuarial studies necessary to make clear the probable costs of the pen sion system under the new act should be made at once and made available to the public. Without such data any intelligent citizen action is impossible. The one thing that should not be done is to leave the people of Waterbury in ignor- ance of what their pension system is going to cost them"
 At press time today, The Demo- crat was informed that the city pension bill, passed by the Legis- lature, had not yet been received by tine governor, for disposition, from the expressing clerk. This applied to all other city bills, also, such as the assessors bill, charter change hill, and others.
