success for the amateur grower
The cymbidiums. Mr.. Steiner
explains, are a partial land plant
while the cattleyas, those which
are probably most widely known
are air plants.
The cymbidiums, he said, while
taking up more room than the
lcattleyas, provide more abundant
bloom. They are of almost every
imaginable color, and the blooms
iii undistured, may last as long as
two months.
Blooms that have been removed
from the plants, Mr.. Steiner said
will last weeks in the house. anG
may be worn for q week without
whiting.
Culture Simplified.
In growing Cymbidiums, there
are certain cultural practices that
will promote healthy growth and
abundant flower. The plants may
be grown in pots, or in beds in a
greenhouse. Since most home
owners do not have access to glass
houses, the potting method will
have the widest appeal

Rhode Island Official
Hits Massachusetts on
Brink S Case |mpasse
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

BOSTON. May 19.-Massachu-
|setts and Rhode Island law en-
forcement authorities were at
parting ways today as they sought
solution Of the fabulous $1.219. 900
Drinks robbery and the gangland
Staying of a wealthy roadhouse
owner.
The apparent break between
law enforcement officials Of these
neighboring States became known
last night when Rhode Islands
Attorney General William E.
Powers announced "thus far Bos-
ton authorities do not seem to be
interested in the information
available to us"
Mr.. Powers accused MaSsachu-
sets authorities of showing a defi-
mite lack of interest in information
which he said might lead to solu-
ton of the January II, 1850,
Drinks robbery and the Saturday
ambush shooting of 49-year-old
Carlton M. O'Brien.
Ex-Convict Released.
Mr.. Powers made the accusa-
ton shortly after Joseph F. Nc:
Ginnis, 48, former convict and
Boston night club owner, had been
released following lengthy ques-
tioning in the Staying of O'Brien,
owner of a Warwick (R. - dine
and dance place and a Providence
R. - diner.
Two shotgun blasts kille d
O'Brien in front of his lavish West
Warwick home.
The attorney general said in
vestigators in his State had uncov-
cred information indicating that
the OBrien Staying was tied up
with the Drinks job.
Mr.. Powers declared the Drinks
holdup-the Nations greatest cash
planned by McGin-
mis-. O'Brien and Alfred A. Gagnon
of Pawtucket, r. l.. a prisoner at
Rhode Island State prison.
,Gagnon has named himself and
O'Brien as planners Of that daring
robbery.
Mr.. Powers said I'VE have a
witness who is ready and able to
give evidence before a Suffolk
County (Mass.) grand jury that
Joseph F. McGinnis planned the
Drinks holdup with the witness
and the robbery occurred exactly
in accordance with their plans"
The Attorney General did not
name his witness.
However, Mr.. Powers made this
statement about one hour after
talking to Gagnon at the prison
where he awaits trial on an indict-
ment charging attempted robbery
of a Providence diamond mer-
chant.
Authorities released McGinnis
after he claimed that he was in his
own place of business in Jamaica
Plain at about the time O'Brien
was slain.
Police Capt. Henry Miller Of
West Warwick later said he had
checked McGinnis' story and
