New York.-The first warm days bring out Manhattan's steeplejacks and vermin- -chasers.
 The latter are considerably in the majority. They are demanded par ticularly in those sections of the east side where rats and mice seem to go into winter quarters. Green- wich' Village has its share of rodents too: so has the Bronx.
 But in the fiagpole squad, one of the most famous Is a steeplejack by the name of Robert Merrill. And New York being what 1t is, here's a man who really worked from the bottom up, for he once had decided to be a deep sea diver and followed that trade for years.
 Encountering Merrill ready to go perching above the St Regis hotel he informed me that most of the men in his trade happen 10 be Scandinavians. But his own birth- place chances to be Arizona. though his immediate ancestors are New Englanders who followed the sea un- til they trekked westward.
 Merrill became acquainted with the heights while fin the role of a parachute jumper and there are few things he has not undertaken.

No Memorial Days

We really feel that the Legislature erred in not voting for a General Kazimir Pulaski Memorial Day. And judging from some of the comments heard in the House of Repre- sentatves Wednesday the Polish patriot who fought SO nobly for American indepedenee during the Revolutionary War didn't do so much after all. No. we suppose not. He simply died in the service of country in which he was foreigner. to whom he owed no allegiance whatsoever In his veins eoursed the same hot blood that sent the Minute Men into action at Concord and Lexington. If he wasn't an American patriot by birth he was one by adoption.
 We don't know whether he only led 33O men into action at Savannah when he was killed but what aid he did give the struggling colonies was certainly appreciated. It is only fitting that such men as these be honored Tn as many ways as the state and federal govern ment can create. It is all the more the pity that the recognition is so belated. In deelar- ing October 1 Pulaski Day Connecticut would merely be following the example of other states some fifteen odd, we believe. who have already taken this action. It would not be legal holiday but merely day on which the governor would issue proclamation call ing upon the people to pay honor to Pulaski by proper display of the American flag.
 It is true as many legislators said in de- batting the bill that other men of foreign birth, not to mention American birth performed as nobly as did Pulaski in the Revolutionary and succeeding wars. They haven't been honored by Connecticut with special days. But we don't see how that can be used as an argument against Pulaski Day. Certainly if the repre- sentatives in the Assembly weren't nominated for their present position they couldn't have been elected. General Pulaski is now nomi- mated for honors. He was worthy of cleo tion. If others are just as worthy. let them be placed in nomination. Connecticut has lrage Polish population that is going to regard this incident as slight. It will rankle and perhaps create hard feelings. The blood is on republican hands.

Still After Six Districts

The desire to have this state redistricted to permit the election of six representatives from six districts is still strong in our mind. We cannot regard the plan to let this pro- posal ride until after l940 with any real pleasure. We don't care for the position of congressman at-large or. for that matter, do we think there are many people in the state. who seriously are interested in the question. admitting that they prefer this position. The sum and substance of the matter is the reds- tricting scheme entails considerable work and of course the previous legislative approval. That seems to be the hardest thing to secure.
 It now develops that there is we'll or ganized move in the Legislature to bring showdown before the committee on senatorial and congressional districts. Last week that body met in executive session to discuss the question. although it had been advertised as public meeting by Senator Keeler. However. now we learn that there is small group of legislators agitating for the six districts. If this group can convince the committee favorable report may be returned. If not the creation of congressman -at-large will be advised If the former plan is adopted bill will be drawn up in committee. slightly amending the Bowers bill of 1921 to allow for population shifts.
 < And in that last sentence is contained one of the most powerful reasons why the state should redistrict this year and not in l94l. Since the creation of five districts there have been distinct population changes in the state. Cffhand we cannot quote the exact figures for each district. but we do happen to know that the fifth district of which Waterbury IS part is proportionately far below the size of the other four. The plan is to create as nearly as possible districts equal in population. The Bowers plan followed this. But that was 1921. There are even more changes now. demanding some slight alteration of the boundary lines suggested then.
 The Bowers plan put into effect now and make ths first distdst the largest with popu-

We'll. started right out with a sea urge, ran away from home when a kid and reached San Francisco, where I slowed away on a Panama ship. I wanted to get to New Bedford having heard my dads whaling yarns. For 12 years I was on an old whaler and then quit and went to merchantman. Then became deep sea diver.
 "And it's because I was a sea- faring man so long that I've made good in New York as a steeplejack. You see, the old whalers were all sailing ships. and got accustomed to running around in the rigging. Flagpole climbing is cinch. even at my age. for one whc has played around in the skysail yards.
