 before Thursday morning. This was the view expressed by Senator King.
 Among the early arrivals was Pcr- mancnt Chairman Walsh who came in morning drccs looking very hot and uncomfortable but very formal The photographers pounced upon him and put him through score Of poses. The band leader. evidently recalling Thco- dore RooseVeit's admonition that convention needs first to ba entertain cd got into action up in his little loft aud crashed out some heavy oveiturcs interspersed with some popular nov cities.
 Everyone brought palm leaf fan. Collectively they probably stirred up enough breeze to start a square rig ger but individually not one of them succeeded in stirring up enough air to dry his brow.
 Temporary Chairman Harrison had shed the long tailed coat of yesterday and looked more comfortable today in the business suit he wears in the senate chamber.
 The convention managers somewhat alarmed at the congestion on the floor ! yesterday had given strict orders that , no one but delegates and alternates 1 were 10 be permitted in the delegate 1 space today. Guards were placed at l the entrances with instructions to carry out those orders without excep- lion.
 The first result was that a lot af party war horses. notabies and priv legged characters who do not happen Q be delegates but nevertheless are on he inside Of the management of the promptly got bounced out ,f #. Ii took several kinds of arEu- nent and persuasion to get them l ,ack in.
 Meanwhile yarious others who had 10 business al the contention slipped . as usual.

 Lack of preparedness cost the United States over 100000 lives" he said. If the defense act now pend ing is carried out by congress II means the saving of millions of dol lars and hundreds of thousands of lives"
 He spoke of the three defense units the regular army, the national guard and the reserve forces. He referred to the reserve corps as being composed of the most magnificent body of young men who ever lived" He said these young men had seen service, had gone through the war and were fed up with it. but that they saw the need of preparedness and were ready to help the country have peace even if they had to fight to get it.
 He quoted the late President Roosevelt who pleaded to "Give our boys a fighting chance" and Light Horse Harry Lee, who said, "The na- ton that sends human beings into war untrained is murderer" Wen never have peace as long as human nature is what it is today" he said.
 A few brief remarks were made by Colonel B. Gordon Hunter, command ing officer of the 169th regiment. who pleaded for support of New Britain's military organizations.

Jitncy Route Left to Public Utilities Commission - Open Bids for New Road-Find in Police Court-Itcms of Interest.

The board of selectmen and a
 member of the public utilities con-
 mission met yesterday in the offices
 of the selectmen to discuss the peti-
 ton of John A. Boyce of Bristol for
 permission to run a jitney from Lazy
 Lane to Lake Compounce. First Se- lectman William T. Foley stated that
 although he had no objection to the
 Jitney route, the road bed leading to the lake over the proposed route is in bad shape and he did not wish to l have the town liable for any accidents which might happen on the way. He stated that it would take at least S1,00O to put the road into condition suitable for jitney route and did not care to say whether the town would undergo the expense or not. The matter was finally left in the hands of the public utilities commission for final action, although the sentiment expressed was that the privilege should be given to resident of Southington rather than to an out of- town man.
 Selectman Foley has received word from State Highway Commissioner Macdonald that contracts for bids on the road to be constructed through Clark street in Milldale from the Hart fard Battery Go. to the Waterbury Milldale turnpike. will be opened on August 5.

|DEBS DEFENDS HIS PARTY IN LETTER
Says Retreat Is Sometim6Bet
 Than Advance

Chicago, July 1S.-Eugene " Debs, veteran leader In the socialist party, from the sanitarium in which he Is confined near here, today issued statement in the form of an open letter to the party, accepting the nom- ination of the recent Cleveland con- vention as national chairman.
 The letter was a defense of the action of the convention in failing to nominate socialist ticket.
 There are times when a retreat Is actually an advance" he wrote in commenting upon the decision of the convention to support the La Toilette candidacy.
 Let us of the socialist party get behind this movement unitedly and wholeheartedly; let us enter the cam paign with all the support at our command and help make it an over- whelming success.
 T am aware of all the objections made to the convention of the con- ference for progressive political ac-
 
 ations, but the fact remains that the historic gathering of labor's forward looking forces was an embryo of the American labor party. It was a be- ginning, and, under the circumstances ? very promising one."
 Mir. Debs said he would not be able, because of his physical condition, to .ake any active part in the campaign, but looked forward with confidence 10 the eventual restoration of health. | We have learned in the socialist 1 movement by practical experience, notwithstanding our no compromise logma, that we cannot lay down hard lnd fast rules to govern our party md ourselves under all the exigen- lies that arise from time to time in he development of the labor move- nent," MT. Debs wrote as his justi- ication of the convention's decision.
