 See No Fight

absence of contests only formal ballot will be cast at party head quarters on East Main street.
 The city convention will be held next Thursday night, Chairman Crary explained this morning, and the remainder of the conventions will be held at later intervals, the respective dates to be set later.
 As for the republicans, they are not expecting any primaries. Are there going to be any primaries this year?' inquired man who had taken an active interest in the af- fairs of the community, although he never cared to be recognized as being tied up to any particular party. Being answered in the af- firmative, he replied that there did not seem to be much public inter est in the primaries by the republi- cans or democrats and that he had practically made up his mind to support the, independent repubii- can ticket, provided those in charge of the party do not get cold feet and disappear at the eleventh hour.
 He added that what the city needs is more independent voting at primaries, but that he had mo- ticed that instead of being encour- aged. citizens who are baking at the tactics of their party leaders are referred to in most uncompli- mentary terms, as though it were a crime for one to make a move contrary to that having the approv- al of a few know all who claim the right to dictate the politics of the whole community.
 The regular, republican party leaders, here, though, anticipate no nrimary battles. If an independent ticket is set up it will mean sep arate primaries and not anything pertaining to or interfering With inc regular g.o.p. caucuses or pri- maries, it was explained to-day.
 Bingham by Air
 United States Senator Hiram Bingham, who will visit Waterpury late this month or early Tn SepteM- Der in connection with his cam paign for, renomination and re- el s,tion, will make the trip nere by autogyro. His will be the nrst autogyro campaign ever attempt ed by a candidate for public office, it Is understood. The gathering here will be at the farm of Charies J. DeBisschop on East Mountain.
 It is expected that Senator Bing- ham will land on the DeBisschop farm in his autogyro. While a, portion of. the farm is suitable for airplane landings, only a small area will be necessary to accom- modate the landing and take-on of the Bingham autogyro.
 Senator Bingham plans to make three campaign speeches to date. His program will be enlarged later, 1t Is expected. His visits in Connecticut will be in Waterbury, Norfolk and East Hartford.
 The senator is being opposed 'py the prohibition adherents in Con- necticut for renomination. and re- election. However, it is hgured that he will overcome this oppo- sition in the state g. o. D., conven- ton. As for the election, It is not expected that the prohibitionists' opposition will be of any serious account in view of the fact that the democratic candidate for the senatorship will also be running on a wet platform.
 LOncrgan Speaks
 Congressman Augustine Loner- gan of Hartford delivered the principal address last night at the annual Horsemen's banquet in New Haven. He declared that 1T we want to check radicalism in this country we must adopt con- structive measures to deal with, things as they are now and not as they were 50 years ago. In his ad- dress he advocated Q hve-day week, unemployment insurance and a iessening Of the tax burden.
 He pledged himself as an op. ponent of the 18th amendment and declared that the question Of prohibition should be left to the states. He denied that the coun. try is suffering from under pro- duction and declared that the country has failed in one thing only, the establishment of an efii- elent system of distribution.
 Until this is accomplished, ne said, the country cannot hope Co regain prosperity. Consresman LonerRan said that the nation needs the ventures0nie spirit to undertake and carry on. He ada- od that we must loarn that only through thrift and industry cni, . permanent prosperity be sstnps IIMHZM.
