Permit Expected By
 Hellmann Brewers
eContinued from Page D

init Is due to arrive in this city probably by the middle of next week, 50 that manufacture of the beer may be started again in the plant of the old Hellmann Brew. ing company that has remained idle since the prohibition act became effective.
 George H. Largay, head of the local concern, is busily engaged in recognizing the personnel of the plant and is putting his machinery and equipment into shape so that the amber fluid can be run into the huge vats as of the days of yore.
 The old Hellman Brewing Go in full operation before prohibition engaged a working force in the neighborhood of about 300 people The new brewing company, it is re. ported, will also employ about the same number, and in addition, will include staff of workers to oper. ate the large bottling plant to be located across the street from the brewing plant.
 The output of the local company probably will be in the neighbor- hood of about 150,000 barrels g year, when the plant is worked to full capacity. The Waterbury plant is said to be one of the finest equipped establishments in the state and with a brewer like MI Largay, who is known throughout the east as being among the lead. CTS in his field, Waterbury should not have to worry about the kind of ale it will be furnished.
 The big question that confronts not only the local brewing com. pany, but all such concerns, is the manner in which 1t is to be dis. tributed. The state commission appointed by Governor Wilbur L Cross has announced that it vii have its report ready by April 2 the day on which the legal beer car be offered for sale.
 Reports are current that severa inns and taverns around the out skirts of the city and along tht state roads, are making arrange ments for the laying out of beer gardens. Local clubs are also mak ing arrangements, 1t is understood for the revival of the old fret pretzel era which, for the time be- ing, will probably take the place of the old style free lunch.

years after the constitution was adopted, Washington himself was bitterly assailed for proclaiming American neutrality in the war of 1793, opponents claiming he had no power to do so. Jefferson did not hesitate to buy the Louisiana terri tory on his own responsibility, though he felt constitutional a. mendment ought to be passed first. There was no time for this, how ever, and he took chance, his &C., tion being later ratified by congress
 Lincoln Was "Ruler"
 Lincoln virtually ruled the country during the Civil War from 1861 to 1865, congress doing little but pass indispensable Legislation and provide needed supplies. Lin coln's first call for volunteers, his emancipation proclamation, and his suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, were all of most doubtful constitutional authority, but justified themselves In the light of national emergency. The last of these was specifically rati- fled by congress, and the second as a military measure as commander in-chief. Lincoln took over the railroads just as Wilson did later, by specific authorization of con- gress, and the executive measures of Lincoln and Johnson in reor- ganizing southern states were up- held by the supreme court, though congress denied them power to re- admit states to the Unino, asserting itself again after the war.
 rThn nf n given in the Constitution have been source of argument for nearly 150 years. The section be- gins, "The executive power shall be vested in a president .. .' But whether this means a general grant of power including all powers not specifically restricted or denied by other provisions. or whether it means simply that the president shall carry out the will of con- gress, has never been finally de- cided.
 It probably never will be. It is precisely such openings for inter- an otherwise rigid Constitution. Presidents are powerful in propor- ton to their own personal influence on congress and on the people, in proportion to the emergency, and their conception of the office.
 But congress can always fire" them by impeachment. just as an office manager can fire a subordi- nate who acts in his absence, and does the wrong thing. An Amer tcan president may have dicta- torial powers, but he Is not a dic- tatOr.

Measure Would Alter Deficiency
 Plan In Force
City Would Be Spared Burden of Carrying Debt Into f Budget During Next Two Years-Last of Local
 Measures to Come Before General Assembly

At the present time the charter requires that if a deficit occurs in any one year it must be cared for in the budget not later than two years afterwards.
 The Lawlor bill would give the city the power to cease setting up such deficiency items for period
 of two years. This, 1t Is felt, would give the municipality a chance to
 keep bringing It's taxes down. Later, of course, the deficit would be taken care of.
 Mayor Frank Hayes, Controller
 Daniel J. Leary and Corporation Counsel Charles s. OConnor will
 journey to Hartford on April 9th
 to argue in favor of the bill. It is
 likely that Edward Udelowitz will head the opposition to the measure.
