Frances R. Leonard of Bale timore Is Prospective Bride = Both Are De- Scendants of Governors

New York, Mar 30-(UP)-G. Og- den Nash, writer of verse, is en- gagged to wed Miss Frances R. Leon- ard, daughter of MT and Mrs Will liam Wirt Leonard, of Baltimore. the wedding will take place some time this summer, it was learned today. The bride-to-be is former Vassar college girl and is a grand daughter of the late Governor D. E. Jackson, of Maryland.
 Nash, who went to Harvard and St Georges school is great-grand- son of Abner Nash, governor of North Carolina, in 1790. Nashville, Tenn., was named for the governors mother. The rhymist also is a direct descendant of Governor William Bradford of the Pilgrims of Ply mouth colony. His parents, MT and Mrs Edmund Nash, live here.

Meanwhile Hoover
 Rebuilds Fences
(continued from Page D

MT Hoover has numerous speeches during the next three months which will permit him to explain his diff faculties and appeal for public, ,sup- port. He will speak to various key groups in several states.
 The farm board situation presents an immediate difficulty. Such an orthodox republican as Senator Da- vid A. Reed of Pennsylvania is de- manding its abolition. It's campaign for acreage reduction has been dis appointing. to. administration friends, for reductionofs surplus wheat plant ing is regarded by the administra- tion as the only lasting solution of the farm problem.
 The stablization, operation, admin istration leaders realize, could only hold up prices artificially for a linn tied time. Now with the board re- fusing to buy any of the new crop for price bolstering purposes, grain quotations are sinking lower and lower.
 Another effort will be made to enact the export debenture plan which was voted by the senate but killed in thes house at the insistence of President Hoover.
 Unexpected severity of the loss in income tax revenue creates the sec ond major problem. 1t leaves the president faced with the alterna- tives of floating bonds or increasing taxes. There will be pressure from some to delay any tax increase until after the 1892 presidential elec- tion, and with the strengtA of the progressives increased in the new congress, they may be expected to direct their balance of power to- waPd shifting the tax burden to the wealthy four per cent who, accord ing to Senator Rorah, control 80 per cent of the wealth.
 Thirdly, the republican, national committee situation is far from sat isfactory to some friends Of the, pres ident. Some of them regret the course pursued toward progressives, and particularly the efforts of Rob- ert V. Lucas, executive director, in secretly attempting to defeat Sena- tor Norris, for. reelection. Senator Feus of Ohio, however, shows no i'm clination to retire as national chair man. The effort is likely to be in the direction of bringing in addition al talent to conduct organization ac- tivities and increase the effectiveness of the committee.

witnessed town meeting of the type that was held last Friday in the municipal building as the result of Mayor Frank Hayes call to taxpay- CTS to attend the hearing and dis Fcuss features of proposed charter revisions that the administration fa- vors. Mayor Hayes is opposed to the plan of a city manager for Wa terbury. His supporters can be num- bered in the hundreds. Advocates of the plan. however. are arranging another mass meeting of those, who favor a city manager, indicating that they are confident of obtaining the endorsement of hundreds also.
 Whether or not the present form of government is satisfactory to Wa terburians is an issue that must be thrashed out sometime in the near future. For the past IA years there have been indications that some people are of the opinion that city manager system of government represents an advanced idea of eX- pert supervision of municipal af- fairs. The Investigation made by the recent charter commission has provided them with the occasion to have public sentiment adequately tested. Their actions serve as a challenge to those, who believe that the mayor and the aldermen, if properly supported, can give this city more progressive and more satisfactory representative type of government than a "one-man" rule.
 The Waterbury Democrat wishes to learn what Waterburians think about both forms of government and to determine whether sentiment ex- ists for change or for a continu- ance of the present system.
 Clip out a ballot, write your name and address on the coupon and state your preference. Send or bring your vote to the Waterbury Democrat of- flee before 6 o'clock next Friday evening and help in showing what Waterbury thinks of both plans of government.

 "The administration of the city of Waterbury is not seeking to force anything upon the public. On the other hand, I see no reason why anybody representing the city should officially attend Wednesdays meet ing. As far as I am concerned, the whole proceedings of Fridays meet ing will be duly reported to the legislative hearing scheduled for Wednesday. April 7th at Hartford" :"
 Secretary Green, when interviewed to-day, denied that any pressure had been brought to bear upon him to have the meeting on the city man. Waterbury switched out of Barry hall
 absolutely nobody objected to such a meeting at the chambers hall" said MT Green. Continuing he said:
 "The meeting of the city man. agership proponents was not formal ly entered upon our book of engage ments. The chambers hall is open to all matters, providing they are not of partisan aspect. Those pro- posing the hearing on the city man. ager form of government did not formally ask for a date and an as- signment for the hall. They, appar- ently, realized. following Fridays public hearing, that Barry hall would not accommodate the people attending. and, therefore, changed the location of the meeting place."
 MT Green made this statement in answer to query as to whether or not objection had been made to the holding of the hearing in Barry hall in view of the fact that some of Wa terbury's leading taxpayers and property owners signified themselves as being in favor of giving Mayor Hayes proposed changes in the char ter a two years trial.
 Hearing on the proposed charter changes offered by Mayor Hayes will take place g. week from tomorrow at Hartford.
