North End Political Club Out for Candidates
 of q. 0. P.
POINTS TO REASONS

The following report of Q meet ing held by the North End Poli- tical club has been feceived at this ofiice:
 The North End Political club favors Congressman Edward W. Goss to serve another term in of- flee, for the following reasons:
 He has acted like a true states man, he has kept every promise made, he has always been a boos- ter for the worthy ex-soldier, in the filing of claims for compensa- tion, and has gone out of his way hundreds of times, for our dis abled ex-soldiers, in order that their sufferings would be alleviated, he fought very hard to have the United States Veterans hospital at Newington, brought to our state.
 With reference to the bonus, the ex-soldiers have no one to blame but themselves. Half the soldiers feel that the bonus should be paid, the other half feel that the coun- try's financial condition would not allow it's payment Sat this time. They feel that in the long run, themselves and the average home owner would have to pay it back to the government. We are sure of one thing, Congressman Goss would vote for any bonus bill that would come within reason, as he has done on bill 4680, which pro- tects the workers and the contrac- tors in federal local projects, and other bills which had the earmarks of a man who Is a true public ser- want. We do not back MT Goss, because someone told us what a good fellow he is. We back him for his truthfulness he has shown us, he can say no and mean it.. We like his wet stand. Why? Be- cause we are Americans, we want liberty. Pretty soon some one will be telling us when we must die. Americans love things in the open. We also back former Governor TrumbuH.
 Governor Cross has done noth- ing to help unemployment. He could at least have called a special session, to see what could be done, many cities in Connecticut having to borrow money at a high rate of interest, why can't he get fed erals aid for these communities. If the governor can't handle the un- employed situation we suggest that he resign and let T. Frank Hayes of Waterbury handle the situation, with Bill Harris.

to Judge Gormley so as to make the selection of the party's candi- date unanimous.
 Waterbury will send 36 dele gates to the Torrington convention. If Attorney Whalen enters the race he is expected to receive a compli- mentary vote from the local dem- ocratic organization. He Is also likely to receive the Winsted vote.
 However, it was practically as- sured today that Judge Gormley would get a majority on the first ballot even in the face of opposi- tion. Therefore, the feeling that unanimous vote in favor of the Naugatuck man will be registered on the second if not the first bal lot.
 Peter J. Cavanaugh of Torring- ton will preside as chairman of the convention. Commissioner Harry Minor will preside as secretary. Both these posts will be tempor- ary ones as the convention opens but it is expected that they will be made permanent by vote of the convention.

Permission to pay 10 per cent
 dividend on the commercial side of
 the Merchants Trust Co, first in this
 department, will be asked of the
 superior court next Friday, Attor-
 new Francis T. Reeves, counsel for
 the Citizens and Manufacturers
 National bank, receiver, stated to-
 day. The application is expected
 to be filed to-day or tomorrow but
 will not be disposed of until a
 week from to-day. About $15O,OO0
 will be paid out should the court
 grant the application.
 This will be the second divldend
 paid out by the receiver since talk ing over the Merchants Trust Co. A 10 per. cent payment was made d couple of months ago on the sav- ines side.e Mir Reeves stated there is about $200,000 available for the commercial dividend.
 Judge Allyn L. Brown granted
 the motion asking $14,344.20 as an allowance to the receiver, covering expeiases in the conduct of the bus iness since last January. Thomas F. Moore, in charge of receivership at the closed bank. stated this represents the actual cash paid out by the Citizens and Manufac- { turers National bank to its execu- \ tive officers as salaries while en-
 gagged in the receitership. This \ money was paid out by the re- { ceiver from its own funds.
 \ As far as an allowance to the
 receiver for operating the receiver- ship is concerned, MT Reeves stated that the status of the depositors or Z the closed bank would be conslo- cred first.
 Tn other words, he explained that
 if all the depositors are paid in full and the receiver feels 1t has done
 "a creditable job in the operation
 of the receivership, an application
 would be filed for an allowance.
 MT Moore pointed out that when X the Merchants Trust Co closed, 1t Ewas in a critical situation inasmuch las it's deposits were 10 per cent of |l the total savings deposits of all the | banks of the city. He said that the k board of directors of the Citizens Hand Manufacturers National bank \ did not desire to take over the re- II ceiyership, but only did so upon 1.-the insistence of the bank com k missioner, who suggested that IL |.be done in the light of a public | service to the community. That Ihas been the idea behind the move sment, MT Moore stated, and 1T the |sreceiver feels that if a creditable |I job has been done, then perhaps |sa small allowance to cover the |lservices rendered would be sought. II MT Reeves stated that when the 0receivership was started last Jan- |luary the weekly payroll was around |IS60O but since that time the em- | |ployes have been cut Is per cent, |.working on weekly shifts, one |.week on and one week off, and Dlthat the number has diminished |lso that the payroll to-day Is Iiaround $500.
 MT Reeves also lauded the law

BAY STATE BOOTS KICK IN WITH US.
 SOCCER TITLE

St Louis, April 4.-(UP)-The New Bedford Whalers are the Na- tional soccer champions, after a Stix, which they won 5 to 2.
 Eight thousand fans saw the eastern champions win the play-off for the United States Football As- sociation cup at Sportsman's park. The Whalers had tied with the western champions, 3 to 3, on the previous Sunday.
 Another tie was in prospect yes- terday when the Stix players held the Whalers- to a scoreless dead lock in the first half, and were on even terms in the second until 15 minutes of play had elapsed.
 Neat Work.
 Then the machine-like passing and superior stamina of the Massa- chusetts team overwhelmed the Missourians. New Bedford regis tered the opening goal when Con- salves' free kick on Gregg's foul advanced the ball to the Stix cage. and White streaked forward to bullet it into the net.
 Two minutes later O'Reilly tied the score for Stix, but the Whaiers went itno the lead soon when Erbe pushed the ball over his own goal line in atetmpting to clear. Con salves scored again for hte Whal- salves scored again for the Whai- Louis score. In the last To min utes, McPherson and Florie tallied two more New Bedford goals.

Poor Foul Shooting Loses
 for Locals = Sheehan, Hoist Play We'll

Ragged work from the fifteen foot line lost another game for the championship Brooklyn A. C. squad yesterday afternoon at the Phoenix avenue court, the Stanley Arenas of New Britain coming through with a 30 to 29 win in the teams third meeting of the season. The Brass City lads outscored their opponents 14 to 13 from the floor but dropped only one foul try out of several chances, while the Stan leys made four of their penalty throws good.
 Close Enough
 The game was nip and tuck all the way and the fans saw some of the best basketball of the season. Brooklyn led 6-5 at the quarter and 14-13 at the hall, but a third period spurt put the Stanleys five points in front at one time, which was cut down in the last stanza to a single marker. Sheehan and Dunn played the game for Brooklyn, with, some good work by Magner while he was in there, while Hoist, KatZ and Arburr were the visiting standouts. KatZ played a full game, with Carroll and Ray Daily as op- ponents. Carroll going out on fouls. The score:
