Declares Candidate
 Distorts Records
 Of Organized Labor
Says Federation Has Endorsed His Election and That Democratic Opponent Twists Compliment to Give Impression He Is Recipient of Labor Vote of Confidence

tOrganized labor and friends of organized labor in the 9th congress siona1 district have the right to re- sent the tactics of misrepresenta- ton adopted by Martin D. Gormley in his campaign, Congressman E. w. Goss stated today, charging MT Gorm1ey with distorting the official records of the American Federa- ton of Labor for his personal gain.
 ''I want to call the attention of friends of organized labor to the fact that MT Gormley in his speeches throughout the district is twisting the. information which labor organizations have gone to considerable trouble to comyile on the basis of legislative records. for his selfish purposes" said Mir Goss. My own political fortunes are ob- yiously engaged in this situation, but that does not alter the fact that MT Gormley Is not complimenting the intelligence of the officials of the American Federation of Labor when he stands on platfQhn and usurps the Endorsement of tAat or- ganization, which has never been given to him, and endeayors to conceal the fact that my record in congress has the approval of organized labor--an approval I . can attest with documentary evil dence."
 Cong Goss recalled that he was recently attacked improperly on posters displayed in Torrington, where the democratic organization attempted to persuade the voters that his record was unfayOrable to labor, and that MT Gormley might be trusted to support organized la- Dor.

 Control

Four rallies were held by the TO- pu.. ans last night, one at the French Republican club, one at the 11th District Republican Club, an- other at the Y. M. c. A. and the fourth in Wolcott. Judge T. ". Meyer spoke at the the three ral- lies held in Waterbury, proper, while Judge John F. McGrath was among the speakers at the Wolcott gathering.
 Judge Meyer declared that dem- ocratic control of the national ad- ministration will mean favoritism for the south and neglect for New England. He said this is very evi- dent judging from speeches by John Garner, the democratic candi- dates for e-president. Judge Meyer praised President Hoover and alluded to him as~the country'f foremost statesman. He also prais- ed Congressman E. w. Goss and warned that he is the logical man to send to Washington to represent the fifth congressional district.
 Other speakers of the evening included Attorney Michael Galullo Town Chairman T. E. Conway, At torney Albert Bronsky, Fred Pack ard, Attorney Hector Auray and Mrs Ruth Jones, at the Y. M. c.

Edward w. Goss of the 5th congressional district is one of the Connecticut nominees men, toned in MT Robertson's article, and am indorsed by MT Robert son and his organization.
 "Knowing as I do the spirit of or- ganized labor, I feel that friends of organized, labor have the right to resent the fact that MT Gormley is making statements for campaign purposes and tacking them on to the American Federation of Labor.

 Cong Goss pointed out that he recently corrected MT Gormley in a published statement. Cong Goss at that time quoted an indorsement received in a letter from John J.
