T but promised to call the president by telephone to make further defi- nite arrangements. He pleaded that a slight cold" had kept him away from work, and also said that any federal work was subject "of course to the requirements of my present duties as governor of this state."
 In his second paragraph of a 225 word telegram, Governor Roosevelt said he was delighted" at the opportunity of talking over the matters embraced in President Hoover's telegram.
 Then he added significant phrase.
 May I take the liberty of sug- gesting," he said, that we make this meeting wholly informal and personal. You and I can so over the whole situation.

 The situation is much the same with regard to presidential mate rial. Almost the only name men, toned now is that of Secretary of Treasury ogden Mills. The party is faced with the equally im- portant task Of developing issues which will attract new timber. A million young men and women reach voting age every year. Since the World War ended, probably 5,000,000 persons have reached voting age. Collegemen and wo- men who voted for the first time in this election cannot remember the start of the European war, They were just emerging from kindergarten when the armistice was signed.
 These young men and women, seenig doors slammed In their faces by the depression, are thinking more and more about public ques- tions. The magazines are full of articles on politics by youngsters still in college or barely out. They

the day at work on his reply. To- day he planned to come out of his hermitage and attack the problems surrounding balancing the state budget. He is said to have recov- cred completely from the cold with which he was suffering when he was ordered" to bed last Friday. While no authorized schedule of MT Roosevelt's plans was made, 1t was believed he will work on state affairs until the weekend, which he will pass at his home at Hyde Park, N. r., leaving for New York to begin his southern journey on Monday. It was therefore regard ed as probable that his conference with the president would take place Tuesday, after which the president-elect would go to Warm Springs for his vacation period.
 This vacation" will be one In name only. It is certain that he will be called upon to meet many of the congressional leaders of his own. party, and that he will begin, at least, g discussion of possibili- ties for the next cabinet.
 Political observers pointed out that the choice of men for key positions such as the secretaries of state, treasury, war and navy will be inextricably linked to his poli- cies regarding foreign affairs, debts, tariffs and taxes, all of which are bound up in the prob- lems in which President Hoover has already invited his cooperation.

prices are about 20 per cent. be- low those of last year, he stated, but only between sO.OO0 and 35. 900 turkeys were raised in the state this year and they are not enough to meet the usual demand, hence the importation from the middle west.

 Local meat wholesalers have al- ready put in. their orders for the accommodation of the Waterbury people. Depression means nothing, apparently. here. A total of l8O,- 900 pounds of turkey are estimat- ed as being sufficient to care for Waterbury's needs on Thanksgiv- ing Day. This. 1t is figured, means about 18.000 birds. Taking five to the family this shows that there will be small portion of the local population which will not have the enjoyment of digging a knife into one of the big gobblers.

I5, 900 TURKEYS ENR0UTE HERE
AUTO MARKERS
 MAY BE GIVEN ADVANCE DATE
Representative Daniel J.
 Mahaney Will Present Bill That Would Bring
 in Money Much Earlier

An advance in the date on which automobile markers can be used for the ensuing year is pro- posed in a bill prepared by Rep resentative Daniel J. Mahaney of this city and which will be pre- scented in the 1883 legislature when the session opens the month after next, January. Representative Mahaney was reelected in last Tuesdays balloting. and will be one of the leading democrats of the house during the 1883 session.
 Representative Mahaney's bill would allow autoists to use mark CTS bought on or before December 18th on that date. He figures that this would give the state of Con- necticut a great amount of money earlier and would also tend, to a certain extent, to discourage the putting up of cars over the winter period or "untif April" as is the familiar cry at the present time.
 The bill if passed by the in- coming legislature will benefit those taking out 1894 markers. Representative Mahaney pointed out, when talked with, that this extra early privilege in the use of markers is now practiced in Massachusetts, New York and other states.
 The passage of the bill would. he said, aid those going away on vacations, also, as well as serve to cut down the iast-minute rushes at the motor vehicle offices.
 Representative Mahaney stated to-day that he will personally urge at the hearing on the bill that steps be taken to have the other states notified of the new. state of af- fairs in Connecticut so that gen. eral plan of cooperation can be fol- lowed out.

Deficit in the
 Tax Collections
(continded from Page 1.)

penditures for other than payroll requirements will merely add to the burden the city is carrying and make it necessary for the salary and wage items to be suspended at an earlier date that would oth- erwise be necessary.
 Tax collections are behind $1,- 250, ,OOO, it was stated to-day. With income curtailed economy must be practiced even to very drastic point, 1t was explainedN If the city creates deficit this year it must provide for the payment of 1t in the 1893 budget under the provi- sions of the new charter. There fore, it was pointed out, with a heavy deficit to be figured in before the rest of the 1893 budget is con- sidered, the city will be faced with an increased. tax rate rather than one on a par with the levy now in effect, 34 mills.
 T do not want to see any in- crease in the tax rate at this time, :" said Controller Leary when talked with. People are carrying heavy burdens now. Therefore. I mean to drive the economy program through and force the department heads to remember that because they have unexpended balances they need not spend them before the close of the year" Control- Ter Leary's statement to the de- partment heads as as follows:
 Cash receipts, from the collec- tion of taxes during the year 1882. have fallen off to such degree that I feel 1t compulsory upon me as comptroller of the city of Wa terbury, to inform you that 1t will be impossible for this office to honor any further acquisitions for the purchase of supplies or mater ials by your department during the year 1892.
 ''The cash position of the city is such, at the present time. that 1t may not be possible for me to meet payroll requirements for the bal ance of the year. Any expenditures by your department for other than payroll requirements will merely add to this burden and make it necessary for the salary and wage items to be suspended at an earlier date than would oth- erwise be necessary.
 ''The fact that You may have un- expended balances in your budget appropriations does not mean that those balances are available for expenditure unless sufficient money is realized from the collection of taxes and other resources to pro- vide funds for the payment of bills when contracted and, as stated above, our experience this year cer- tainly does not warrant further expenditures.
 ''In the event that an emergency of serious importance should arise in your department. which. fin your judgment, makes a purchase absolutely necessary, a personal tn- terview with the writer should be arranged for the purpose of dis cussing the purchase which you deem necessary.
 The purpose of this procedure ii to try to stop the creation of q huge cash deficit in the operating expenses of the city for the cur rent year and. by so doing, avoid the necessity of raising the tax

testify that many of their class
 mates are thinking seriously of en- tering politics. Senator Hiram
 Bingham, republican, Conn. just defeated for reelection. conserva- tive republican attached to the
 Roraback organization in Connecti-
 cut, has son who is just out of Yale and Is starting magazine which is announced as friendly to socialism and other political ex- periments.
 It is significant that an appeal for a new deal in the republican party, for a reorganization toward a more liberal point of view, should come from the head of Americas largest university and one where there is a high percen- tage of political-minded youth in the student body.
 The difficulty raised by politi- clans here in answer to such sug- gestions is that the party experi- mented with non-professional so- called liberal in MT Hoover. He is the first president who had not served an apprenticeship in run ming for office. Old-line politicians were skeptical of him before he was nominated in 1928.
 Many of them are more con- vinced than ever now that the party should stick to graduates of It's own schools of politics.

gay party at Reynolda, the family seat, Reynolds was found uncon- scious and bleeding from pistol wound in the head on the floor of his bedroom. Mrs Reynolds and A. B. Walker, his boyhood chum, took him to a hospital where he died without regaining conscious ness.
 The authorities first announced his death as suicide. Twenty four hours later they were not so sure, and coroner's jury under took an investigation. Mrs Key holds was the chief witness. She described the party where liquor was served. Reynolds was melan- choly, she said, depressed and feel ing inferior. He blamed himself for certain intimate failures in their relations. The guests de- parted for their homes. Mrs Hol- man went to their bedroom, un- dressed, and went to bed. Rey- holds came in. Walker was down.. stairs closing up the house for the night. Reynolds, Mrs Holman said. pressed a pistol to his fore- head while she looked on para lyzed with shock, and pulled the trigger.
 Mrs Reynolds produced notes written by Reynolds several years before, threatening suicide. She said he often talked of self de- struction. Walker verified her statements. The coroner's jury. nevertheless. reported that Rey- holds met his death at "the hands of person or persons unknown"
 It developed at the hearing that Mrs Reynolds was an expectant mother. Litigation of Reynolds $15,000,O ,O00 estate is now being held up to await the arrival of the child that will be entitled to share in it.
 After the coroner's jury verdict. authorities continued a secret in- vestigation. Three weeks later, the Forsythe County grand jury returned indictments charging Mrs Reynolds and Walker with mur- der.
 Mrs Reynolds was missing for several days. Finally she appeared to answer the indictments and was released in $15.000 bail. Walker was arrested immediately, held n jail for several days. and was finally released under similar ball.
