 Good Judgment is the prime factor in the steady. consistent progress of any business.
 Of course. good judgment must be exercised in many ways if success is to be attained, but assuming that the first three req uisites are being practiced by the thousands of friends and patrons who have had their clothes made from these ENGLISH, IRISH, WELSH,

Convicted of Attempted HOldup of Store on
 Riverside Street
HAD ''PHONEY' GUN

Benjamin Stanis, 23, and Fran cis Sherman, 23, were given five months in jail on charges of as- sault in connection with an at- tempted holdup of a speakeasy on Riverside street on June 25. They were tried on charges of attempt ed robbery, which carries a states prison sentence if convicted. They pleaded not guilty and elected court trials. Judge Newell Jennings stated after finding them guilty that he would like to do something for them but couldn't under the circumstances.
 Assistant States Attorney Will liam B. Fitzgerald said the state was willing to cooperate. It was then agreed to charge the youths with assault which allowed the court to impose county jail sen- tence. Stanis was said to have flashed "phoney" gun in the at- tempted holdup. It was marked like a regular revolver but was a complete fake with two holes drill ed on either side of the barrel to indicate bullet spaces.

HIRAM JOHNSON AND HOOVER ARE
 CLASH AGAIN
Two Old California Foes Will Oppose Each Other
 on Moratorium Problem
By RAYMOND CHAPTER United Press Correspondent

Washington, Sept IT. (UP)- Discussion of the administrators intentions regarding extension of the debt moratorium and possible general revision of war obligations has brought promise ofea spectacu- lar clash between two old Calfor- mia foes, President and Senator Hiram Johnson, republican, when congress convenes.
 At the time the Hoover debt moratorium was announced on June 20, Johnson voiced suspicion that the one-year holiday was the beginning of cancellation and de- clared that congress should turn its searchlight on the situation.
 In the last few days insistence from banking groups that the debt moratorium should be extended as much as five years has become highly vocal here and has given rise to many resports that the ad- ministration was preparing to sug- gest some such step.
 Officials have declared that no further action is contemplated at this time, but the discussion per- sists. To clear the air it Is expected that those in congress opposed to cancellation, headed by Johnson, will insist upon definite state ment of the administrations at- titude before the moratorium pro- posal Is ratified by congress.
 At the time MT Hoover proposed the moratorium, the reaction from senators and congressman indicat- ed it would be supported when congress met. There is no indica- ton that sentiment has materially changed since them. However, the growing discussion of an extension or a general revision has raised questions which will be aired. The outcome is expected to depend upon the skill with which the ad- ministration forces meet the at- tacks.
 This is a situation exactly to Johnson's taste. He is a man of simple pleasures. Give him a chance to include the international bankers interference in European entanglemets. and his old op- ponent President Hoover. all In one thwacking and he asks for no | more.

 Some of the windows in the vari- ous stores are outstanding in de- sign and attractiveness. In other years noted judges have come to Waterbury to select prize winning window displays. That part of this years showing was dispensed with but it is generally agreed that had

the judges been here this year they surely would have had a difficult time in picking the best windows.
 Cooperating merchants h a V e voted this years fall opening a sue cess considering the event from all sides and particularly the times. The stores displayed their best merchandise at low prices and the window trimmers were at their best as evidenced by the beautiful dis plays. Warm weather during the first part of the week hampered the fall openings chances of going over as predicted but with the drop of yesterday and to-day the mer- chants are convinced that the shop pers who have been holding back will be in town before to-night's closing time
