 Lampoons McDonough Hast night in rally. MT. Me Donough, my opponent took 1t upon himself to speak humorously of me. describing me walking up and down the platform waving my arms and ! banging my fist. The other day d man came running down Main street, grasping mems hands and shaking them. The police began to watch him. Men began to ask: Who is this man and what does he want?' Soon he grabbed the hand of giant of a man and shook it. Who are you? What do you want?'. this man demanded to know. Why this man answered. I am Hand shaking McDonough, and I want your vote

But this commission hasn't done anything and cannot do anything until the su- preme court decides what is to he done with the Ware river. The state of Connecticut is now suing the state of Massachusetts on the diversion oi these waters. Yet.

 Checks Will Re Paid
 "A week ago, in a humorous vein told you taxes will be reduced il I have to rent out few offices ir city hall. Now Mr. McDonough is worried about the poor firemen, DO liCcmcn and the poor school teach. CTS: he is worried that they vii come to city hall and won't be able to cash their pay checks, He doesn need 10 worry about then-they'l he paid whether he's mayor or Tn mayor.
 "Tf I am elected I will cut tht tax rate and reduce taxes. This vii be done by an equalization of assess meuts.
 T want 10 assure you that if I an . elected mayor, I'll be the mayor ant there will be no strings attached tt
 me. On that basis l ask your sup port"
