ernment dismissed him in what;

2 Danbury Physicians I
Held Responsible ,
In Spinster's Death
By the Associated Press
]
BRIDGEPORT, Conn., July 2.—
A Danbury physician today was,
accused of causing the death of;
an elderly spinster with whom he!'
lived “in order to get her prop-ji
erty.”
In official findings filed in Su-;
perior Court, resigned County!
Coroner Theodore E. Steiber!
charged Dr. Donald F. Gibson j
“precipitated or caused” the death
of Miss Elizabeth M. Ayres, 74.
The report said another Dan
bury doctor. Dr. Frank Genovese.1
also was criminally responsible in
the death.
Miss Ayres, who died a year
ago, made Dr. Gibson the sole heir
to her estate, estimated at $65,000
to $100,000.
Mr. Steiber, whose report was
pre-dated before his June 15 res
ignation and based on a lengthy;
inquest held last summer, said the
evidence he heard “warrants an
indictment for homicide.”
However, the findings do not!
initiate prosecution. This would
have to be done by other authori
ties.
The 11-pag^ findings claimed
Dr. Gibson’s motive not only was
for property, but so he would “be
unfettered in his marriage” to
Mrs. Frank Wetmore.
The 48-year-old Dr. Gibson
married Mrs. Wetmore 10 days
after the death of Mrs. Ayers,
with whom he had made his
home. He told newsmen at tha
time that he never promised to
wed Miss Ayres.
Mr. Steiber’s findings claimed
that on the day Miss Ayres died,
[Dr. Genovese advised Dr. Gibson
that an intravenous injection
could prolong ber life for a few
days, but the injection was not;
given. '
This omission alone, the re
port charged, is sufficient cause
to indict the doctors.
In Danbury, both physicians'
protested their innocence to news
I men.
Graham Arrives in India
To Aid in Kashmir Truce
By the Associated Press
NEW DELHI. India. July 2.—
United Nations Mediator Frank
Graham expressed confidence to
day that he and his staff would
l‘'be of assistance” to India and
Pakistan “in their own responsi
bilities for the settlement of the
complex problem” of Kashmir.
Mr. Graham, lormer United
States Senator, arrived here by
plane from the Pakistan capital,
Karachi. He was accompanied
by a five-man staff, including his
; military adviser, Gen. Jacob L.
Devers.
“My mission to the subcon
tinent,” Mr. Graham said, “is an
I; expression of one of the basic
[ purposes of the United Nations—
i the settlement of disputes between
nations through the peaceful pro
cedures of negotiations, under
| standing and good will.”

South Wales, Australia, average

iharpe Again Heads
Joard of Education;
Lee Also Re-elected
C. Melvin Sharpe was re-elected
iresident and Adelbert W. Lee
rice president of the Board of
Sducation today without opposi
tion.
Although no other candidates
vere nominated for the board’s
two elective positions, the vote was
rot unanimous.
After Mr. Sharpe was nomi
lated, his election by acclimation
vas called for, but Dr. James A.
3annon objected. He said he felt
i secret writen ballot should be
:ast in accordance with the rules
if the board, adding:
“I don’t think the secretary can
:ast a unanimous ballot when it's
lot going to be unanimous.”
8-1 for Sharpe.
So the ballot was cast and the
rote stood eight in favor of Mr.
3harpe and one against him.
Mr. Sharpe then thanked the
ioard for expressing confidence in
lim by renaming him president.
Dbviously piqued by Dr. Gannon’s
statements, Mr. Sharpe com
nented that he regretted matters
vere beginning “on an unpleasant
lote.”
Dr. Gannon retorted that it was
'nothing unpleasant” but a regu
ar procedure of the board to cast
lallots.
7-1 for Lee.
The vote in Mr. Lee's election
«7as seven in favor and one op
Dosed. One member did not vote.
Before the election, two new
board members — Mrs. Arcadia
Near Philips, wife of a Washing
ton real estate man, and Wesley
3. Williams, colored attorney, were
sworn in and welcomed by Mr.
Sharpe.
Mrs. Philips replaced Mrs. Philip
Sidney Smith, who had served 23
years on the board, while Mr.
Williams replaced Woolsey W.
Hall, who had been on the board
since last November filling an un
expired term.
The board then went into a
lengthy debate on the contro
versy over school Supt. Hobart.
M. Coming's plan to change the
boundary lines between the La
fayette and Murch elementary
schools. The matter was shunted
right back to Dr. Corning with
the board refusing to say whether
it approved his recommendation
and instructing him to make a
further study and to act.
If Dr. Coining desires, he may
bring the matter back to the board
at a later date.
Six Speakers Heard.
The boundary change would
send more than 100 pupils from
the overcrowded Lafayette School
to the Murch School. Before the
board acted, it heard six speaker*
discussing the pros and cons.
Speaking in favor of shifting the
100 nunils to Murch wprp Palnh
S. Roberts, president of the
Lafayette Home and School Asso
ciation; Mrs. Henry Gichner and
Milton D. Korman. Parents op
posing the change were Mrs.
Henry Ator, Morris D. Schwartz
and I. W. Mendelsohn.
Concerning the equally contro
versial transfer of Langley Junior
High School from white to colored
students, voted by the board last
week. Dr. Corning said parents of
the Langley students had asked
that their children be dispersed
to other junior highs rather than
be sent to McKinley High School
as a unit. He added that plans
were being worked out to ac
complish this and that the students
would be sent to the Taft, Stuart,
Jefferson and Macfarland junior
high schools.
Tobin Says French Labor
Will Quit Reds in Crisis
By th« Associated Press
PARIS, July 2.—Secretary of
Labor Tobin said today he be
'lieves French labor will break
away from Communist leadership
in event of an international show
down.
Mr. Tobin was asked at a news
conference whether the United
States was anxious about how
French labor might react in a
crisis. At least 70 per cent of the
organized French workers are
Communist-led.
Said Mr. Tobin in reply;
“The actions of French workers
in the last 18 months would indi
cate that they will act in the best
interests of their country and that
Communist leadership will not be
able to lead them into taking ac
j tions that would be detrimental to
a free France.”
