The officer, however, caught up with Gaudreau.

Further Arrests Expected With. what' they learned from two visits paid to the youths being held at Thompsonville, the local detectives rounded up the others. At a late hour they were stilly expecting additional arrests. From the sextet, police learned the following: On July 23 Pelton.

Three nights later the quartet admitted taking an automobile, owned by Walter Drobat of 111 Morgan road, West Springfield, from Sharon street in this city, finally abandoning it at Central and l'ine streets.

The same night the boys broke into a gas station at 251 Hickory street and took 23 bottles of Coca-Cola.

FORMER AID HELD 1. IN DEWEY THREAT (Continued from First l'age) Washington, which, captain said he told him he had entered voluntarily. Capt Gaffney charged that Padgett went to West Virginia Arst and then "headed for Maine." He was "spotted" near Holyoke, the trooper said and an alarm was sounded. He was taken into custody by 30 New York and Connecticut police toshort distance from the Dewey estate. Lieut Walter F.

Riley identified the prisoner as Louis Padgett, a former investigator for Dewey's office. He escaped from Washington hospital for the insane July 29, Riley said. "The man closely resembled Dewey in appearance," the lieutenant declared. "and was obsessed with belief that if Dewey were dead, he would become the district-attorney himself." Since Padgett's escape, Riley said. a 21-hour guard has been placed around the Dewey estate where Mrs Dewey and their two sons are residing.

In Padgett's machine, Riley said. were police, dog and a loaded shotgun. A spokesman for the prosecutor in New York city, 'however, maintained "there was no question of threat to Mr. Dewey." and added that Padgett "had almost a veneration for the district-attorney." Springfield police received a general alarm Friday night stating that Louis Padgett, 38. former FBI man, had been chased and had made a getaway from police at Holyoke.

Reports from New York at that time said Padgett had escaped from Gallagher hospital at Washington, D. C.

The possible or probable appointment of Jacques Benoist-Mechain as minister of foreign affairs was certainly one of those disquieting signs which.

spread pessimism. BenoistMechain became secretary of state without portfolio on June 9 and as such he directs a department of which the special task carved out of the normal competence of official diplomacy, is to handle all questions in sus. pense with Germany. The conception underlying Benoist-Mechain's rise to power is that career diplomats nurtured in the pro-British and proAmerican tradition cannot be trusted to Nazi establish empire. A decent complementary relations with meas- I ure devised by Fernand de Brinon, Vichy's representative in Paris, with Darlan's assent, provides for the dismissal of about 40 officials from the ministry of foreign affairs.

In the days before the armistice BenoistMechain lived in obscurity and was known to a few as the translator of some German books and as the author of a history of the new German army which was praised beyond the Rhine. Such are the signs which point to a renewal and to an extension of the attempts made since last December, at irregular to. carry out a program more or less borrowed from Laval. And the usual question cannot be avoided: What about Gen Africa and the great expectations a to Maxime Weygand's doings in north which he has unwittingly given rise? The answer is that he personally deprecates the Indo- Chinese precedent and professes to strive against its being reproduced in the territories under his command. But whether he would eventually disobey an order issued to him from Marshal Petain's offices in Vichy is a different matter indeed.

Japanese Demands The Thailand government clearly was on the verge of a great decision -whether to enter Japan's orbit. Or to cooperate with Britain and the United States.

That the Japanese were making certain demands Thailand not denied by Thai officials. What their. would be was still in doubt. but the Thai ment announced significantly that a tank headquarters had been set up for its eastern forces at Battambang, Cambodia, just 35 miles from Siemleap, Indo-China which the Japanese had just occupied. This suggested, although it did not establish, that Thailand was getting ready to fight if the Japanese sought to gO The Thai government granted formal recognition to the Japanese puppet government of Manchukuo.

Tokio, in announcing earlier that such recognition was to be forthcoming, had seemed to see in it a measure of Thai complaisance--a spirit scarcely borne out by the creation of the Battambang base. Watching United States Dispatches from Bangkok stressed the point that Thailand was watching the attitude of the United States with even more apparent interest than Britain's. The British were represented as determined, with the backing of the United States, to draw a line to Japanese expansion and it wag declared that Thailand might well become the theater of the showdown. There wore reports during the day that China was massing. a big army on the China border with Burma, ready to aid the British in defense of the Burma military supply road, and a Chinese diplomat in London remarked that events in the Thailand-Burma-Singapore area were moving toward "a swift and terrible climax."

No substantiation for this could be found in Washington and in Canada the offices of both Prime Minister King and Malcolm Macdonald, the British high commissioner, said such a visit by Churchill was very improbable. Nazi Counter Claims As to the Russian front, news of the surprising deflection of the tral German thrust came in the claim of the Nazi command that its forces had made a widening break-through to a point 62 miles southeast of Smolensk, the heart of the Soviet center, and in the process 'had "partly annihilated and partly encircled" a Russian body of unstated size.

This was accompanied by the claim that German shock troops advancing far to. the south below Kiev had overrun strong Soviet field positions, taking 43 bunkers and at least 6000 prisoners and killing twice that many red soldiers. In this area, it was said in Berlin, the apparent assignment of the Nazis was to smash through for an eventual swing northwest to meet the erstwhile German forces of the center which now are moving southeast. The grand purpose would be not only isolate Kiev itself but the Ukraine hinterland from the Black sea. The Germans specifically asserted that Bel Tserkov, a major Soviet area some 50 miles southwest of Kiev.

was in German hands In the north it was claimed that Kholm, which lies 250 miles northwest of Moscow, likewise had been occupied. The Soviet command in its communique for vesterday did not mention Kholm, although it previously had acknowledged fighting in that area about midway between Leningrad and Moscow. Lines Holding This Soviet war bulletin implied. however. that the Russian lines were holding both north and south of Kiev -that is, about Korosten and Bel Tserkov.

Daniel. and Atty Lewis at the defense table; some of Atty-Gen Robert T. Bushnell's staff, handling the case for the House board of managers, seated a table opposite the defense table; and the board of managers for the House at a table nearby. This board of managers is Representatives Benjamin H.

Priest Haverhill, George A. Parker of Boston, and Edward Snow of Natick, Republicans, and Joseph H. Downey of Brockton and William M. Hyde Ware, DemoIcrats, Court Oficials Sworn The House was formally notified the Senate was sitting as a trial board, and a motion to resolve the Senate into a trial board was adopted. The various court officials were given loaths-Irving N.

Hayden, Senate clerk, as clerk; the senators judges, all 'being present except Mason Sears of Dedham. who is in the army; and the court stenographer taking the transcript. Sergeant-at-Arms -Charles O. Holt then recited the ancient words calling upon all at interest to "draw near and you shall be heard," and ending with "God save the commonwealth of Massachusetts." Other formalities, such as service of notices, were attested to, after which Clerk Hayden called, "Daniel Coakley." Coakley arose, but his counsel answered "Present," and asked to be heard before formal arraignment. He read a prepared statement stating that Senator Jarvis Hunt of North Attleboro, having on the: special commission on pardons and paroles whose deliberations resulted in the impeachment articles, had specifically uttered opinions about the defendant and charges against him, and hence could not impartially sit in judgment.

He left the matter wholly with the "conscience" of Senator Hunt, who made no motion to indicate his intentions, but later said would issue a statement. However, he indicated his belief that he has Patrolman Florence J. Haggerty received. The city property committee was authorized to sell a house and lot on Forrest street to Ernest Gaudette, highest bidder, at $1600. Joseph E.

Action on an agreement with the United States Housing authority, I providing for sewers, police and fire protection and utility service in return for a percentage of rents to be paid the city in lieu of taxes, was. tabled when it was discovered the agreement did not state specifically which housing project it applied to. An order to accept provisions of the state law to hold the municipal election on the third Tuesday in December, to enable soldiers to vote, was referred to ordinance committee and the mayor was authorized to appoint a committee of four aldermen and three citizens to be known as the municipal personnel committee.

Because a "certain local organization" has asked President Joseph Lafleur to resign, Alderman George Miller moved that the board signify its opposite sentiment, and asked that a vote of confidence in the president be taken and this wAg done unanimously. Adjournment was until the proposed increases in pay for the personnel. It is expected that next meeting of the Chicopee board Department Present salary Proposed salary $2100 $2300 2200 2500 2300 2600 2400 2700 3000 3500 Department Present salary Proposed salary. $2155.50 $2300 2312.80 2600 2312.80 2600 2460.30 2700. 3000.00 3500 no alternative but to continue to sit as part of the court, as otherwise his constituents in the 1st Bristol senaorial district will not De represented on the court or in the trial.

Lewis called upon Hunt to disqualify himself, saying the Senate could not do so, and adding that "the subconscious mind, like a sponge, sucks up lots of things which won't appear on the witness stand, and he cannot erase from his mind the convictions on which he has given oral as well as written opinions." President Goodwin declared the mocen-Ition of Lewis answered itself, and it rested solely with Senator Hunt as to whether he disqualified himself. Reading of Charges Waived Hayden began reading the formal charges, but after a short time, Lewis asked to waive further reading. This was agreed to. Coakley was called upon for direct pleading. but Lewis asked he first he allowed to present two preliminary motions, stating Coakley pleaded "not guilty to each and cvery article" of the charges, and would file written answers upon the date designated by the court.

Chairman Priest of the House managers introduced Bushnell as its counsel, who stated he would be aided by Judge Frederick A. Crafts of Waltham district court, and members of his staff. Discussion turned to the length of to be allowed defense counsel to file answers. Bushnell had no definite date in mind. Lewis asked for time until after Labor day.

President Goodwin suggested "one week." Lewis then argued his motion that he be presented with a full and complete transcript of the Pardons and Paroles commission's evidence as it pertained to the Limon, Potter and Patriarca cases, the three chief matters on which the articles of impeachment are based. He contended anything printed by authority of the Legislature is a public document that almost everyone but the defense has been allowed to see such transcript. To allow fair reply, Lewis contended, he must see this transcript. Bushnell declared he was not willing to turn over this transcript, in his possession. to the defense.

He said all Coakley has to answer are the articles in the impeachment presentment, just In as he would, if criminally indicted. answer to the indictment. Bushnell made it plain he not consider the proceedings against Coakley to he criminal in nature, but rather to be civil. Lewis said he had tried repeatedly to get this transcript from the attorney-general. without success; that if he had had this transcript, the answers to the articles of impeachment would have been ready today, Bushnell replied that under no proceedings at law is the defendant entitled to such transcript of evidence, citing in support that a defendant does not have a transcript of evidence presented to a grand jury that indicts him, but merely pleads to the in the indictment.

Bushnell suggested a short time for filing written answers by the defense. saying he would have replication of the House managers ready 24 hours after such filing, Lewis accepted B. Bushnell's statement that some records of the General Court are not public, and then suggested the senato tors be given time for a mental rest after their long legislative session, and hence, that trial be continued until after Labor day, President Goodwin then ruled the defense could not have the transcript of evidence it had prayed for. Lewis asked for agreement by Senate and Goodwin put the question as 3. motion, obtaining unanimous approval at of his ruling.

Motions Are Filed August 15 was then fixed by Goodwin as date for filing answers, with trial to start on the 20th. Lewis presented two more motions, one relating to the Senate rule of majority vote for conviction and the other asking for a two-thirds vote of those present and voting for such judgment. He said he would argue them when trial resumed. Bushnell filed three motions the taking of depositions of Rev Joseph Gibbons, Thomas Costa and Francis Joseph Patriarca, all of Providence. R.

I. Recess was called to permit Lewis to study these Lewis filed a motion protesting the as rule of the Senate providing that conviction may be had upon any article of impeachment by a majority vote of the Senate present and voting. It carried the contention that the Senate had no right to frame rules for trial and conviction in advance of its actual sitting as a court, asserting this violated the Massachusetts Bill of Rights, article 12, which provides that no subject shall be arrested, imprisoned, but by judgment of his peers or the law of the land, and in substance, held the Senate did not become the defendant's peers until it had resolved itself into a court of judgment.
