Naugatuck unemployed will bene-
At by ito the extent Of $3.50 or
better. It would take someone
with q particularly long memory
to recall the last time Naugatuck
high school basketball team was
beaten by more than IS points.
Therefore, 1t is with pardonable
pride that bl1e-eyed, bald-headed
Tommy Monohan can take a
long low bow for his accomplish
mei,t Of last evening.
A Great Combination
We say his accomplishment,
with reservations. not forgetting
the splendid individual and team
play of those high-spirited boys
frcm Mayor Joe buttons City OF
Bells. But It was good tight
basketball game for the first half,
ending 17-t4 In Bristofs favor.
The second half was a rout, for It
seemed that for ~ Of the last 16
minutes Of play, Naugatuck's team
was the most bewiidered group OF
youngsters one could possibly
imagine. Gone was the spirit that
has pulled many q game out OF
the Are when things got tough;
gone was their well-drilled power
drives for the hoop, gone was
their range on the basket, all OF
their collective basketball brains
completely befuddied before an
attack based on the zone system OF
play that worked as smooth a.
silk and effective as q traffic cop
admonishing motorist from Po-
dunk. It was two periods of play
when Bristol just couldn't do any
thing wrong. In short they were
clicking like the nickels in an
automat.
But Tommy Monohan took no
bows last night, even In the wake
OF one OF the greatest victories of
Bristol high school team. Re-
member, please, that this same
Nnugatuck team beat Bristol 1927
on Its own floor. On a neutral
under 10 points. and that accom-
plishment, brethren, means baskets
ball with q capital 3D. That's why
to-day was Monohan Day In Bris-

great little lrMnman.

Vote Against Coercion

Editorial In Labor Railway Broherhoods' weekly
"nen the boss tells you which way to vote vote
the opposite
There are two main reasons for this advice; and
either one alone ought to be decisive
In the first place. the man who tries to scare
you is not your friend and the employer who tells
you the factory will close if his ticket isn't elected
is trying to scare you and nothing less
He's not browbeating you for your own sake. He's
not doing it for the good Of the country-any man
who tries to control elections by fear and threats is
rotten bad American.
When he tries such tactics to influence your vote.
he is giving proof that your interest lies in exactly
the opposite direction.
The second reason for voting opposite to the boss
orders has been given in Labor before but is worth
repeating No holder Of any Office, from President
to constable nor all of them together, can do as
much good as this vicious, cowardy dishonest, I'M
American bullying of voters does harm.
If the big employers of this country could be
taught that when they try to control the ballot box
by fear they rousng resentment which will smash
themselves this would be the most fortunate election
America ever held, matter who won.
If the boss lets you alone the election, let him
alone, study the situation, make up your own mind,
and vote it.
If the boss tries to bully brighten or coerce you
in any way, find out what he wants you to do-and
do the opposite.

mentation upon numerous occa-
Sions.
Mr.. Bryan's populism of 1896 was
defeated at the polls largely through
the INSCRIPTIONS skill of Mark
Hanna, but that somewhat muddled
radicalism is just as much part
of the American tradition as the
Standpat, high tariff conservatism
of McESinley's, which was jammed
through by methods Just as well
not to mention.
1t is entirely fair for Herbert
Clark Hoover to stand before the
voters as an extreme conservative,
and he is within his rights in ar
guing that cautious procedure is the
only one calculated to get us out OF
despond.
OF course, it may not be very
convincing argument. 1t will take
a great deal of talking to convince
many people that slump which
occurred under a Republican man
date really was brought about by a
Democratic minority.
But this, again, is merely a by
product of the discussion. 1t is nv
contention that democratic Amer
lea has been an adventurous nation
in many of it's political phases. Nat
mally, it has grown and changed in
the course of a century and a half.

The Election

All the time. money, and words of this bitter cam
pagn have changed nothing. Since the Democrats
won the congressional elections two years ago as
result of the administrations failures, Democratic
victory this fall has seemed probable.
The probability was increased by the denomination
of President Sover The campaign has been unpleas-
ant and unimportant.
We have stated our position. We share the con-
viction of an apparently overwhelming majority OF
voters that Roosevelt offers better chance for good
times and good government than the reactionary adj
ninistraton which has failed for four years
We do not accept the extreme view that the adj
ninistraton caused the depression; nor do We deny
that the depression is world wide.
But we said at the time, and now repeat, that the
administration intensified and prolonged the depres-
sion by abettng the speculation orgy, by suicidal
high tariff and by other disastrous economic policies;
that the administrations remedial efforts were be-
lated half hearted, and ineffective.
Extent of this administrations intellectual bank
ruptcy and governmental ineffciency in time of
crisis is unprecedented in American history. Nor has
it been all a matter Of ineflciency.
Part of it has been Observation-Disclosures effort
70 serve interests OF the few at the expense of the
many and deliberate evasion, in the matter of
hunger relief and of prohibition.
Whether Roosevelt and the Democrats win do
better remains to be seen-there are no certaintes
In politics Roosevelt no superhuman and the record
of his party in the last congress is nothing to brag
about. There are some issues on which they are
evasive.
But the voter does not ballot for perfection. All
