Alderman Angelo M. Paonessa is elected mayor of New Britain. He is a Democrat, the first of his party to be chosen to the office since 1912, and among the first of his racial stock to be elected head of an Amer ican city. America is the land of opportunity. All its honors are open to the humb1est. To the adopted citi- zen but one office is denied. If Paon- essa serves the people faithfully and well there is nothing in the law, or in the custom of the land which will de- bar him from any public office, save alone the office of President of the United States.
