that the reported names of the dead

Coroner Dawlcy immediately got
into a launch to go out to tho Bos-

through the crushed staterooms in
another search for the missing. His
first examination was more or less
cursory, as he had understood that
all but the four dead had been ac-

is a test of hearing. The third is a
test of general intelligence. The
fourth. regarded as the most im‘~
portant of all. is of "emotional effi-
ciency."
It was in this respect that many
of the persons tested-acme of

to release the “steering wheel" and
throw up both arms—an action
that undoubtedly would result in
ditching a real car. Many other per-

licenses. failed to pass the test of

making no other charges until ihe

motion for dismissal. arguing that
the complainants had not establish-
ed their caso. He said the auditor
‘had made no effort to find out if
Bradley had paid out any of the
court's receipts by cash but had ro-
iled solely on cancelled checks. He
claimed that so far as Bradley's
failure to file his reports on time
was concerned that the blame rest-
ed upon the selectxnen for not pro-
scribing regulations for doing so to
Bradley.
The charge of politics and bitter
newspaper articles ”published by
those in “the sclectmen's clique”
was claimed to be nesponsible for
the action against Bradley. Attor-
ney Connery said in his reply. He
also stressed the fabt that Bradley's
reputation was at stake at the trial.

consultation with his legal adviser
