 Briefly the whol" affair creates a mountain out of Il mole hill, and. candidly. the Herald is getting thoroughly sick of the argument Judge Tracoski is q homorcd and r,- sp'ctcd member Of the com munity. Th" mayors last statc- ment. Hs below, admits that Judge Traccski's statement. as made last night is true insofar HS any arrears of the present judge Is concerned. Therefore the fact seems tO h. established that Judge Tracoslll's skirts are clear Of any arrears.
 w. do not care tu have inc Herald used for personalities and do not intend that f. shall h. SO used. W" have su edited statements that they are con- tined to facts in the discussion, ignoring personalities. and will Contlnu" tU do so.
 As mayor of the city of Sew Britain, Mayor raonCssu is fully privileged to the llsc of inc licrall's colums for his staIr- ments, they arc open to him. Judge Traccski. as holder ut an honorable and noble office is also privileged 1o make state m"nts through this medium. Both of them have done so oyer this particular matter. rather nor" than tn" situation war rants in our opinion.
 The mayors statement mad" today, as edited. is as follows:
