doing their utmost this fall to turn out the democrats who turned them out two years ago and spoiled all their plans of uninter- rupted reign of the state. With Mir Wilcox at the head of the ticket two years hence the younger element of the party will prae- ticslly be in control. Then and then only will we expect to see Mir Roraback step down from bis position.
 Democrats must be aware of what is talk ing place in republican circles. They must realize that the ticket of Trumbull and Wilcox will probably be the strongest that they will have to meet in many year. With this in mind we should think they would spend less time on bringing forward different states of candidates and more on personalities. In Governor Cross they pos sess an ace that the republicans can't trump try as they may. Give him a ticket that ranks with him in independence of spirit and viewpoint and even the Trumbull- Wilcox lineup will be vanquished. The democrats are holding the whip this fall. We hope they realize there is time to use it and also time to let it remain in the socket.

Despite the fact that nomination of former Governor John Trumbull on the re- publican ticket is becoming more evident every day friends of Mayor George A. Quigley of New Britain are flooding the state with propaganda in behalf of their candidate. It certainly looks as if the New Britain executive would not withdraw his candidacy without making fight for it. And that is. just what the republican leaders want to avoid next week. They hope to convince the electorate of the state that the republican party is united. whereas the dem- ocrats are split wide open upon a diversity of subjects. For example the Quigley sup porters say. We believe that George A. Quigey, elected five times mayor of New Britain by overwhelming majorties, if nom- mated for governor, will so appeal to the voters of Connecticut that there will be no question of party success in the November election. .' That's high praise indeed. Unfortunately. though. it is an opinion in which all republicans and democrats do not share. The republicans seem to incline to the belief that the former governor, MT Trumbul, will prove more popular with the voters The democrats believe that Governor Cross still retains his following and will score off Mir Roraback in 1852 as he did in 1850. And both these viewpoints must be taken into consideration. The path of Mayor Quigley to the gubernatorial nomination won't be an easy one nor will his election after the nomination, if secured. Personally we believe that Governor Cross would easily defeat the New Britain mayor. but against Trumbull he will be forced to the limit

Here's Bitter Satire on Boon
 Stock Imitation :.
by BRUCE CATION

Horace TrundeH, president o1 Federated Utilities, specialized 1T feeding bunk to the public. IT fact, since he had almost no brains that was why he had his job.
 He was fine orator, and wheI he told people. that only Redi were afraid of the power trust and that utility stock prices werf bound to keep on going hibherI forever and ever, they all believed him. And the only trouble wal that he finally got SO that he bel lieved it himself, and when 1927 knocked the bottom out of every think he, fell into the soup along with the suckers.
 Horace Trundei1' is the central figure in "There Is a Tide" b3 Percival Wilde; a novel which Y about as bitter & satire of Ameril can business as you will @easii: find. ..nsl
 The portrait of zthis utilitiet magnate is sharply drawn. B. accident and by dint of a flair foi oratory the man rises to the sum init, although he has neither inI telligence, hunor nor likabli personality. He gropes blindl, through the boom years and stumI bles into the depression without ever knowing just what is hap pening; and the general effect oI the novel is that of a picture of [ time in which the. world as whole went nuts. ..t
 Frenzied finance. the Fiorid; boom and the absurdities of an eco homie system without a. balance wheel are the chief targets of thi; book. As novel, it is slightly dif fuse and rambling; but I lthinl you'll find it worth reading.

 a point of capitalizing the preju- dice against him.
 There were many roars because

 urbane and soft-spoken during the
 many attacks on him. ill-tempered
 and abusive as they often were.
 Devoted to Smith
 Whether Raskob ever felt that the party was more or less his
 property is only speculation. He was always devoted to his friend Al Smith; and wished Smith could
 be renominated. Failing Smith, he would have preferred owen b. | Young. Failing either he would have preferred anybody on earth
 to his enemy, Franklin D. Roose-

 Curiously enough, it was the feeling in the south and west con

 ment from politics. After his four years of patient
 effort and building for 1882,
 Roosevelt came along and reaped the entire benefit. How sour that tasted to Raskob can only be
 imagined. Now everyone agrees that
 henceforth the Raskobs will serve
 as contributors rather than man. agers-no one, presumably, more
 heartily than the Rasliobs.

Some republican politicians finally showed some sense. They have put clamp down on Governor General Theodore Roosevelt's participation in the Hoover campaign. It had been planned to bring young Teddy
 back to the states for bit of campaigning against his distant cousin. Governor Frank lin D. Roosevelt. This was at the behest of the entire Roosevelt clan who seem to view the prospect of Franklin D. in the White House with holy horror. It is stated on very good authority that Mrs Alice Long, worth was instrumental in securing the re- turn of her brother for the fall campaign. This week Secretary of War Hurley, under whose jurisdiction. Governor General Roosevelt falls. wired him that the president believed it advisable for the governor gen. eral to remain on the islands There is plenty of excuse for this. but none better than past incidents in young Teddy's poli1- cal career which distinguished him not as successful eampaigner. bu, as too hot

Washington.--Man years will e.apse before you see another na- tional party chairman like John J. Raskob. In the first place no 1 party is going to be looking for another MT Raskob and in the sec ond place the MT Raskobs are go- ing to scoot for cover the instant they think they hear the call.
 Now that Mir Raskob seems to have passed definitely from the scene as factor in the demo- cratic party, his performance may be assayed as beneficial and ex- pensive to his party and highly entertaining to the rest of us.
 Mir Raskob is uncommunicative as to whether the fun he had re- paid him for the money and ef- fort he put into it and it would appear that he expected more fun than he received. AS for the party, it probably got bargain, whether it recognizes that or not. May Get $1oo,oo Back
 | MT Raskob, did not really step | out of the immediate vicinity of the foreground until the new demo- cratic management arranged to liquidate that $400,000 deficit left over from MT Raskob's steward ship, about $100,000 of which was l owed to MT Raskob personally and the rest of which consisted of trust company notes which bore the name of MT Raskob and two or three others.
 Raskob will get the s100, 900 back, presumably, but he put that much and a lot more into the pot during his four years as chairman.
 He never did learn all there is to learn about politics and he finally went out because that was the only place for him to go, but it was Raskob who had more than any other man to do with putting the party in fighting shape again after it's 1928 defeat. If 1t had not been for Raskob there would have been no brainy. hard-hitting democratic organization to func- tion between campaigns. pouring out ceaseless standardization propaganda, winning the 1890 congressional campaign, taking advantage of every republican mistake and preparing the demo- crats for a fine getaway this year. Soon after the Smith campaign was over he promised the organ ization and promised the funds. ''Ate'.
 Did Remarkable Job
 He had piled up a large deficit, l but he did remarkable job. He hired for the party two crack men-Jouett Shouse, the execu- tive chairman. and Charles Mich- aelson, the publicity director-- who proceeded to run rings around the g. O. p.'s political TO- ganization here.
 But there was an active and often vocal dislike for Raskob within his own party from the time he was chosen, especially among the western and southern democrats. In the first place he was a Catholic and many politi- clans felt 1t was a big mistake for Smith. already heavily handi- capped by his religion. not to choose a Presbyterian or some thing.
 Others disliked his connections with Wall street and "big busi- ness." And there were those who came to feel that RaSkob had vir- tually bought up the party and owned it, which was a very bad thing. At one time his name was

New Tax Statutes

In predicting new tax statutes for Con- nceticut Mayor Quigley of New Britain wasn't speaking at random. It is subject that the l933 Legislature will be forced to consider from every angle and to make some decision that will affect every community in Connecticut Our system of taxation having proved inadequate to our needs 1t IS necessary to make it conform by adjust ments. This necessarily includes decrease in the cost of government. Perhaps this factor should be stressed as frequently and as heartily as that of relieving the burden of the real estate owner by widening the tax base. The two go hand in hand. Ono can't be ignored when the other is eonsid- cred
 The Connecticut Leagse of Munieipali- ties can play an important part in the revis- ion of our tax statutes next year if this is to come. Organized primarily to remove the burden from the sadly oppressed prop erty owner the league has attracted much lnleIeSl ana ldVOIdOIe COHlIHeHl. put WHeH the Legislature assemblies it must perform more than ordinary services if we are to accomplish any reforms or relieve any tax payers burden. There must be program for consideration. There must be whole hearted support by every member of the league. which action may even force his at- tendance at frequent sessions and hearings. In this way alone can the League accomplish what it has set out to do.
 The League has convinced the people of this state that real estate bears more than its fair share of the tax burden. Even public officials realize this, but where some fear to proceed to correct this tendency others wonder which direction they can turn. Of course in the long run we presume merely spreading the taxes over a wider base may not reduce some men S taxes one cent, but it should include greater number of tax payers than ever and in the long run this will enable the state to ease up the burden in various classes of taxation. We must always keep in mind. though. that increased taxes are directly caused by, mounting costs of government When we simplify our government remove it from private fields of endeavor we may be able to bring its cost down to level where the consequent taxes will not be excessive. ,.

RUssETT APPLES

Gently chided by 8 correspondent
 signing himself Constant Eater"
 the Telegram offers in defense of It's recent omission of russets rom eulogy. of New England apples
 only the fact that the eulogy was
 concerned primarily with the apple
 market. And russets are not con- spicuously on the market. This Is Iregrettable, but true.
 "Constant Eater" is entirely right in saying that the russet is
 super-apple. That is. he is entire ly right according to the standards of a trained New England taste. By this is. meant taste cultivated lin old fashioned orchards, where ancient trees bestowed annually
 the benison of fruit which to-day
 is inexcusably unknown to millions
 The trouble with russets Is their
 color. We are informed that or charists cannot find such ready markets for an apple that isn't tinted according to the popular
 conception of an apple. That con- ception calls for a red apple, a great shiny thing. The russet Is not red, but russet, rather more
 golden than anything else. It IS beautiful to the trained eye which
 co-ordinatcs with an epicurean ap-
 petite. But not enough of us. even in New England, have had the trained appetite for apples. Farm
 CTS occasionally plant russet trees, but kenerally for their own use. To put russets out for sale as eating apples would only arouse the derision of the average city feller. He'd pass them by, reflecting in superior fashion that the farmer can't palm off any cooking apples
 on him as eating apples. So the farmers wide will use slightly in- ferior Gravensteins and other vari- cities for cooking, but she and her husband will keep the russets for themselves, and rich will be their reward.
 Fortunately, a few farmers real ize that even occasional city folk
 know good apple. It is reported
 that the spring sees roadside stands
 with russefs for sale. the russeta having durability, among other vir- tues. And 1t is also reported that the sales are growing. Let us hope |so. After all, orchardists cannot be expected to grow apples for which there Is little or no market. ana II public appreciation of russets does not improve, there Is danger even of extinction for one of the noblest fruits that ever blessed the palate oi a human being. se

Professor Albert Levitt doesn't think
 that the ruling of Deputy Attorney General Averill with regards to rembval of thames from caucus lists of those signing petitions for independent tickets will hols Even though the Bedding man doesn't agree with the ruling, he will probably find out in due course of time that it has solid basis of fact. We don't think any such ruling would have been made if the law wasn't behind it. And it stands to reason that people who petition for one ticket certainly. shouldn't have their names kept on other party lists. It's the same as democrat or republican trying to be on both lists at one and the same time. It just isn't legal It is possible for per- son to switch from one list to another. That is frequently done where primary battles loom, but we never knew that one man
 could be listed on both lists and vote on them. although it probably has been done.

Looking Ahead

Anybody who thinks that J. Henry Ror- aback's republican organization is eonced- ing victory to the democrats of Connee- ticut this fall is sadly msled. Just the op- posite IS more nearly the truth. Matters will come to head next week in New Haven when Former Governor John H. Trumbull is nominated for governor. We are reason- ably sure that the Plainvile manufacturer will seek to be elected for the fourth time this fall. It must be recalled that ex-Gov- ernor Trumbull has only been elected twice in his own right. The first time he held the governorship he did so by virtue of the res- ignation of Senator Hiram A. Bingham who had aseended to the higher office while waiting to be sworn in as governor.
 Republicans of Connecticut. and in par ticulsr State Chairman Rorabaek, have a sublime faith in Mir Trumbull that is al- most sacred That's why they are turning deaf ears to the candidates of such stall warts as States Attorney Hugh Alcorn. Mayor Quigley of New Britain. Lieuten- ant-Governor Spencer. and Former Lieuten- ant Governor Rogers to mention just few of the eligibles. And furthermore the pow CTS that be are desirous of breaking up the line of succession that they inadvertently started some years ago. Why then bring Mir Trumbull back into the fold? Simply because he looms as the best vote -getter that the party has just now. With him at the head of the ticket the g. Q. p. has more than fair chance of shaking Governor Cross regime.
 But behind the candidacy of Mir Trum-, bull is that of State Treasurer Roy C Will cox of Merden. Mir Wilcox will be the candidate for lieutenant governor on the republican ticket. That. too. is assured And in l934 MT Wilcox wifi be the can didate fer governor, provided, of course. the republicans are successful this year. That's why Mir Rorabsek and his aides are
