The Democratic state ticket has Ebeen favored with an exceptionally staunch young man to run for state treasurer. The ticket has been date for state treasurer will be in strum entaI in the victory that is ap- parent for the Democratic ticket this fall.
 Robert De Forest Goddard is the Dem ocratic candidate for state treas urer. He is a Bridgeport boy, hay ing been born here April II. 1881. His father, Walter Goddard, was at one time collector of the port for Connecticut and for a number of years was Democratic town chairman. Under the guidance of MT. Goddard, the Democratic ticket was always vic torious and a singular thing was that an election under his leadership was always successful MT. Goddard's mother was Katherine Gray, daugh- ter of one of Bridgeports oldest families.
 : Always a Democrat
 In political faith MT. Goddard has always been a staunch Democrat and has served his party consc1entiously and faithfully. His early education was received in the public grammar schools of the city. Following his graduation from grammar school he entered the Bridgeport High school at the age of IS years, leaving in his sophomore year to enter the Brid dgeport Trust company With this institution he has been 25 years and from the position of clerk he has risen by his own effort and initiative to the position of assistant treasurer.
 MT. Goddard served on the Board of Education in 1915. being electeo to the position on the Democratic ticket The entire Goddard family has always been connected with the Democratic party and upholdefs of it's principles. MT. Goddard's brother,

1 Walter, of Stratford. has been named to run for state senator on the Dem ocratic ticket in the 25th Senatorial district and it is the hope of the two brothers that they will meet on Capi- tol Hill. Hartford, shortly after NOV. '. MT. Goddard's brother, Edward, and old time reporter on the Evening g Farmer, now The Times, Is Demo- cratic town chairman of Springfield, Mass.
 Doesn't Rely On Luck
 Though MT. Goddard is by nature lucky, he will not depend on luck for his election. His plans have been formulated for an intensive campaign and he plans to accompany other Democratic nominees for various of hces throughout the state and present Democratic state ticket ought to be swept into office.
 T conscientiously believe that the Democratic ticket has better pros ever did before in the history of Connecticut Democracy MT God- dard said today "The ticket is great ly strengthened by Mayor David Fftz- men are fighting men who are staunch sons of Democracy and who base their claims for public office on their merits and the merits of the Demo- cratic state party which is the only party of the people.
 For Business Administration.
 "I believe that the cities will swing the election this year and not the publican. I believe that Bridgeport will give the Democracy a substantial majority over the Republican con- tenders for office. The popularity of Mayor FitzGera1d and MT. SpeIlacy here will largely contribute to the success of the ticket.
 "If I am elected state treasurer I will conduct the office of state treas urer on the same plane as I would conduct my office of assistant treasur- IT with the Bridgeport Trust com pany. I will use the same care and discretion. I will be the servant of the people whom I will serfve con and faithfully
 Banker 26 Ye&1@.
 MT. Goddard is very modest about state treasurer. His excellent record with the Bridgeport Trust company is sufficient to elect him. He is banker of 26 years experience and his keen finance make him an exceptionally serong candidate for the office.
 MT. Goddard is prominent in the social life of the city and is a member of several civic and fraternal bodies here He is a member of Corinthian Lodge, and Jerusalem Chapter, Royal Arch MasOns, and is also a member Of the konckapotanauh Tribe of Red Men. He is a member of the Kiwanis club, the Chamber of Commerce and port Y M c. A. He is well known through out banking circles of Con- necticut through his membership in the American Bankers Association.
 MT. God dard is also, actively iden- tified with the Fifth District Dem ocratic club. He was named after Judge RCbert E. DeForest, Bridge ports cnly Democratic congressman. |
