; CLAIM AGAINST
CONN. CO. FILED
Atty Martin Parker Repre
sents Family ot Dead
Bus Driver
A compensation claim against the
Connecticut, Co. on behall. of the
* dependents of the late John, F.
O'Donnell, driver of the bus which
crashed on the Cheshire road Sept.
17 to bring death to five persons
and injuries to 14 others, was filed
this morning with Commissioner
Charles Kleiner of the third con
gressional , district at New Haven.
Attorney Martin Parker is repre
senting the family in its claim.
In the claim filed with Commis
sioner Kleiner it is held that the
driver’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wil
liam O’Donnell, add a brother,
Thomas O’Donnell, all of South
View street, were dependent on him
lor support. Under the compensa
tion law requirements, dependency
must be proven.
The claim alleges that O’Donnell
died in the course of his regular
employment. "Multiple fractures”
are listed as the Immediate cause
of death. O’Donnell died at Water
bury hospital an hour after his ef
forts to straighten the Cheshire
bound bus out from a skid had
| < failed and the heavy vehicle plung
ed off the highway, struck a tree
at the side of the road and over
turned.
Though the claim was presented
In New Haven, it is reported that
both parties will agree to a transfer
of the hearing on the matter to
this city. In that case, Commission
er James M. Lynch will act for
Commissioner Kleiner. Transfer of
the case to this city would be con
siderably more convenient to both
aides, since practically all the wit
nesses who would be called reside
In this city.

Cross Doesn't Want
Honor Of His Office
“Large Fulfillment” Is His Aim—Three Term Gover
nor Cites Accomplishments in Radio Address;
Legislature Blamed for Present-Day Deficit
Hartford, Conn., Oct. 3—(UP)—
Gov. Wilbur L. Cross today revealed
himself not seeking re-election “for
sale- of the mere hcr.or” but for the
“premise of a large fulfillment.”
In a broadcast in which he did not
mention the democratic party, the
three-term governor said:
"Once a governor, always a gov
ernor. The title remains. In a con
servative democracy su h as ours,
time is required to mature policies
to the point when they will com
mand approval of political organiz
ations and the majority of the peo
ple.
“I stand firmly behind the major
policies I have advocated since I be
came governor. Sorne of these poli
cies have been enacted into law.” '
Gov Cross outlined the accom
plishments of his regime, saying:
"You have kept watch over my acts
and whepevev I have njade appeal
for yotfr united suppoFCyou have
never failed me, as I hrve never
failed you.'
“By our joint action was set up
state control of the • manufacture
and sale of alcoholic liquors. By
our joint action the state was saved
from racetrack gambling. The good
name of Connecticut has been
equally our mutual concerp.”
He blamed the general assembly
tor not taking his tax base “advice"
in 1931. Had that been done, the
governor said, “there would not now
be a deficit of $13,000,000 Or more.
There would be no deficit whatever.'
He said deficits would continue sc
long as there is divided responsibil
ity over the budget between the as
sembly and the state board of fi
nance and control

KAZEMEKAS
DIVIDEND SURE
18% Payment May Re=

td Atty Milton Meyers
Depositors in the Kazemekas &
Co. bank will receive a, final devi
dend of 18 per cent as a result of
the sale of the remaining assets of
the closed company to Attorney Mil
ton Meyers, it was learned from a
reliable source today. The dividend
' will probably be paid within the
next month, and the receivership
will undoubtedly be ended shortly
thereafter.
The Waterbury National Bank
has been the receiver for the Kaze
mekas company for the past several
years. Attorney L. Russell Carter
has served as counsel for the re
ceiver.
Last.spring,.the firm of Bronson,
Lewis and Bronson made an offer
of $47,000 for the remaining assets
of the1 Kazemekas company. The
offer was made on behalf of an un
disclosed client, and a hearing was [
held In court. Objection was voiced
and Judge Edwin C. Dickenson or-1
dered that bids be called for.
The time for filing of bids closed |
last week, and the sealed bids were
presented to Judge Patrick B. O’Sul
livan in superior court. They were
opened under his direction and At
torney Meyers’ bid of $62,565 was the
highest by far.
Depositors profit by more than
$16,000 since Attorney Meyers’ bid
was that much higher than the next
highest sum offered. The bank as
sets consist of real estate and other
assets.
Completion of the receivership
will mark the end of, the affairs of
the closed bank, and will leave only
liquidation of the Merchants Trust

and private, a clean slate.
BROWN CALLS NEW
DEAL RAW DEAL
Labor, Farmer Suffered
From AAA. He Says in
Campaign Speech
i
Stafford Springs, Conn., Oct. 3—
(UP)—The AAA was blamed today
by Arthur M. Brown, republican
gubernatorial nominee, for creating
a “devastating effect upon labor as
well as the farmer.”
“An examination of the record,”
he said, “discloses the fact that un
der the AAA, labor and the farmer
have both received a raw deal.
"Not only has the farmer lost his
foreign markets but the tariff poli
cies of the New Dtal hav ■ been such
that he is obliged to meet a stiff
competition with foreign countries
in his own domestic markets.
"Connecticut Is a manufacturing
state and the welfare of labor is one
of its chief concerts. When a pol
icy is adopted that destroys the for
eign markets oi the : armer and
raises the price of almost everything
that the consumer uses, a severe
blow is struck at not only the farm
er, but at his chief customer, Amer
ican labor.”
Brown said wholesale meat prices
have gone up 60 per cent, and that
food costs generally had advanced
30 per cent.
“It is,” he said, “ a vicious circle
about which we swing.”

SPENDING ASKED
U. S. Chamber of Com=
merce Urges Balanced
Budget Next Year
Washington, Oct. 3 — (UP) —
The final directors meeting of the
U. S. Chamber of Commerce before
election, today demanded a $500,
000,000 slash in federal spending
and a balanced budget in the next
fiscal year.
Envisioning a 10 per cent increase
in treasury revenues, the chamber
asserted that the budget could be
balanced without recourse to new
taxes. It demanded a repeal of the
tax on undistributed earnings.
The 40 officers and directors of
the chamber, claiming to represent
a majority of American business
men, made public before adjourning,
reports including:
1. Cautious praise of the recent
“gentlemen’s agreement” between
this country, Great Britain and
Prance to maintain currency stabil
ization.
2. A dubious attitude on the
value of the commerce department’s
projected unemployment census and
the finding that at least 7,000,000
more wage and salary workers were
privately employed tl.an in the
depths of the depression.
3. A flat demand that the fed
eral budget be balanced during the
next fiscal year by paring govern
ment expenditures.
4. A request for repeal of the
new tax on undistributed corporate
profits and return to the straight
tax on business incomes as well as
a suggestion that the present struc
ture of excise levies be altered.
5. Satisfaction with the recently
enacted merchant marine act of
1833 which was praised as a spur
to American commercial shipping.
The chamber placed upon the
agenda of its November meeting a
contemplated report cn federal
monetary policies. A report on con
sumers’ cooperatives submitted at
the executive session and responsi
bility for publishing it was placed
with President Harper Sibley. A
study of the currency agreement
was made by the committee on
monetary policy and presented its
chairman, W. P. Gephart of St.
Louis.
The chamber reiterated its con
tention that the corporate profits
tax is unsound and asked its repeal.
Excise levies imposing “burdens or
annoyances” on business were at
tacked.
An oral report by James A. Far
rell, former president of the United
States Steel Corp., recalled the
chamber’s sponsorship of ship sub
sidies as represented in the 1936

Paris, Oct. 3—(U.P.)—Police pa
trols were rushed into the principal
boulevards today when Paris’ 60,
000 waiters went on strike.
Emergency squads patroled in
trucks to suppress demonstrations
and to protect establishments whose
waiters wanted to work.
The strike Was called suddenly
while government officials were anx
ious over the threat of a serious
communist-fascist clash tomorrow.
Though neither threat was con
nected with the devaluation pro
gram. the government’s worries were
complicated.
Restaurants, cafes and hotel bars
through the city closed. At some
premises, the workers remaining in
occupation. At others, the propri
etors succeeded hr looking • the
doors before the strike took effect.
While police watched the thou
sands of establishments affected,
fascist leaders met to plan a phy
sical breakup of a gigantic com
munist demonstration planned for
tomorrow. They called a general
meeting of fascists of the Croix De
Feu organization for 3 p. m. (9 a
m. EST.) to plan means of break
ing up the demonstration, apparent
ly intending to defy government
ordinances.
Union leaders asserted that 90 per
cent of Paris’s waiters were on strike
by 10 a. m. (4 a. m. EST).
In many instances, the waiters
used the new “stay in" tactics and
remained in occupation of premises.

(Copyright 1936, by United Press)
Toledo, Oct. 3— (UP)—Still dazed
after 10 weeks in semi-darkness,
most of the survivors of the Alca
zar still wandered around the tor
turous cellar passages today, un
able to face the sunlight above,
their hair still matted, uniforms be.
grimed, and yellow faces etched
with lines of strain.
Those who emerge burst into
tears as they meet friends whom
they had not seen since the civil
war started.
In the streets, covered with pow
dery dust from explosions, gangs
are cleaning up human and animal
debris, carting away bodies of cats,
rats, horses, mules, and gathering
Into piles red-stained uniforms and
bullet punctured caps.
Hard-boiled Foreign Legionnaires
and Moors throng the sidewalks
while roaring trucks with supplies
raise dust clouds. Smoke still curls
from burning buildings, and the
stench of bodies in the piles of
refuse is noticeable. Here and there
are splashes of blood.
In the Santa Cruz museum, part
ly in ruins, few of the old masters
have escaped bullet holes or the
slashes of bayonets or knives. Gal
leries are a confused mass of Ro
man statues pock marked with bul
lets, and paintings with 50 to 100
bullet marks. Several paintings of
Christ on the Cross have been
slashed by a knife.

and diamonds. From one ornamen
tal masterpiece the loyalists, he al

four pounds, made of the first gold
Columbus brought from America.
He said also that Toledo’s most
famous painting, the Burial of the

missing along with most other
Grecos.
ANNEXATION OF 8
ISLANDS REVEALED
Great Britain’s Action
Aroused Immediate Pro
test From Germany
London, Oct. 3.—(UP)—Annex
ation by Great Britain of eight
islands in the South Sea Phoenix
Archipeligo, was revealed today.
While the territory is said to in
volve only about 16 square miles
with a population of 60, the islands
are believed to be of potential naval
value.
The annexation comes at a mo
ment when the question of col
onies for Germany and Italy is be
coming increasingly acute in the
minds of those working for Euro
pean peace and brought immediate
reaction in Berlin.
Der Anc '.T, Nazi newspaper of
which Dr. Paul Josepr Goebbels,
minister of propaganda, was for
merly editor, attacked the annex
ation, saying it paved the way for
annexation by Australia of the
whole subarctic regions .
With a streamed heading on page
one, the Nazi newspaper calls the
annexation “a gigantic increase in
the territory of the British em -
pirc,” and termed it evidence of
British “hunger for land" and in
justice toward German colonial de
mands.
First news c.‘ the annexation came
from German sources, showing how
closely this situation is being
watched, but ” was confirmed of
ficially that two naval sloops, at
tached to the New Zealand division
had been instructed to “take neces
sary steps to reaffirm him majesty's
claim” to the Phoenix Islands.
This was done by posting signs
on palm trees on each of the islands
reading “This island belongs to
King Edward VIII.”
