Despite efforts by leaders of the

existed within the army.

charged were Communist connected "
The thousand or more men who first
occupied Fort Hunt under the ban

were avowedly Communistic, changed
the name of their organization to the

THREE CITIES in
THIS STATE ARE
VOTING HEAVILY
Greatest Interest Centers
in Bridgeport Where
Socialists May Win
(By United Press)

A heavy vote in the elections in
Connecticut's three biggest cities
was indicated to-day as party
workers began getting out the vot-
ers almost before daylight The
skies were overcast, but there was
no rain and 1t was not cold enough
to keep voters away from the bal
lot boxes.
In each city q democratic ad-
ministration was seeking q return
to office. The Hartford fight has
been characterized by q particu-
larry bitter battle in which demo-
cratic facional strife added to the
rancor. The attacks were directed
against Thomas ]. Spcllacy, old
guard leader, who, the republicans
charged, would control the may
or's office IL William j. Rankin was
reelected. George Gleason, DEM
ocratic town clerk, who was kept
off his partys ticket by Spellacy,
was given place on the republi-
can ticket, which Is headed by J.

At Bridgeport the two major
parties were concentrating on Jas

was conceded a good chance of
staging an overthrow of tho usual
dominant parties. James l.. Dunn,

u. Paper Lauds Local Boys Ring Ability
Capital Expansion
Gets Added Impetus
Question of Stimulating Demand for Production Partly
Due to NRA Consumer Drive Program

New York, Nov. Increasing
attention has recently been given
to the problem of stimulating the
output of, and the demand for, pro-
ducers' goods. This question has
been brought forward partly as a
result of the NRA. program, which
is designed primarily to increase
consumers demand. 1t has been
pointed out that consumers de-
mand alone can hardly form the
basis of true industrial recovery
at least, not within the near fN-
as a large part of
the existing industrial equipment Is
suitable only for the production of
further Industrial equipment. In
other words, the modern Industrial
mechanism Is SO designed that 1t
can operate at q high level only in
a situation permitting rapid
growth In the total supply of capt.
tai goods.
The steel and construction indus
tries are outstanding examples OF
the many important branches of
business that depend for their mar
kets, to large extent, on indus
trial expansion, rather than cur
rent consumption. Consequently.
even IL purchasing power could be
distributed as to enable consumers
to take u greatly increased amount
of consumption goods off the mar
ket, large proportion of the ag-
gregate plant capacity could not
participate in the production Of
such commodities.
This view is in accord with some
of the most widely held theories of
business cycles, states the current
issue Of The Guaranty Trust Com
pany Survey. 1t is we'll known that
the production and consumption Of
consumers goods vary compare
lively little. The wide differences
between rates of output during
prosperity and depression are due
for the most part, to variations In
the production of buildings, ma
chinery, tools, and other productive
equipment. All this productive
equipment, of course, can be used
only to produce goods directly or
indirectly for the ultimate con-
sumner.
According to several authoritative
and widely accepted theories, The
Survey continues, 1t Is the tendency
of productive equipment In times
of prosperity to expand too fast
that is, beyond the capacity of con-
sumers to absorb the output
which constitutes the principal fac
tor operating to terminate prosper
ity and bring on depression. 1t has
been estimated that the industries
producing capital goods represents,
roughly, half of the country's pro-
ductive capacity and that in 1929
the total production of such goods
amounted to about 100000, 000, 900.
as against 100000, 900, 900 in con.
sumption goods.
