Mayor Frank Hayes paused to- day in the discharge of his many municipal duties today to pay trip- ute to the memory of Waterbury's s heroic dead.
 His honor in his official procla- nation publicly approved of the sale of peoples, the little red how- CTS of remembrance, by ex-service men and urges the public or the city to cooperate in the sale, which officially opens Saturday morning, May 27th. The little symbols of grateful remembrance will be worn until Memorial days services are concluded.
 Due to the many demands made by dependent buddies upon the limited resources of veterans funds, the public is asked this year to he as liberal as possible in Its patronage. Wear a flower and show gratitude for those who have given their all and your interest in those who are living and en- deavoring to carry on, is the re- quest of the buddies.
 Tho peoples will be sold by members and representative or Corporal Frank Coyle post, Amer ican Legion, US auXlllarys the vet erans of Foreign Wars and the Yankee Division. The legion's headqffuarters have been establish ed at 7S East Main street. The V. K. W. and the I'D wil also have centrally located offices.
 In the interest of all ex-service men the mayors official proclama- ton issued today reads as follows:

"LiIIy Turner" is
 Drawing Crowds

George Brent is featured in Lilly Turner" with Ruth Chatter ton, Frank McHugh, Ruth Donnel- ly and Guy Kibbee.
 The picture, based on the stage success by Phillip Cunning and George Abbott, reveals the life be- hind the scenes of the players in the tawdry medicine tent shows and the glamorous carnivals. Gone is the stately Miss Chatterton. of the society drawing room: In Lilly Turner is Chatterton. cooch dancer who wiggles her hips and jiggles her chest muscles to fascinate and lure the male: the poseur in pink tights and fhmsy, transparent costumes.
 Never, it is said. has she given such a powerful characterization as that of Lilly Turner, the girl who flaunts her charms to devas- tate the heart of the male; whose life is one of butterfly gaiety on the surface and bitter heartaches beneath.
 The companion feature is "The Devils Brother" featuring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, Dennis King. Thelma Todd and other favorites.
 There is considerably more to '"The Devils Brother" than humor. although, of coursey the antics of it's two clowns play an outstand- ing part in the production. For one thing there is the presence m the cast of Dennis King, hero Of innumerable New York show hits. whose portrayal of the bandit king. Diavolo. does not prevent him from singing several songs of definite asset to the picture. Then there is also the. dashing Thelma Todd as the flirtatious Lady Pamela for whose charms Laurel and Hardy fall all over themselves.
 The whole picture has been pro- duced on an unusually elaborate scale with picturesque back grounds, Q massed chorus of some 15O voices and what seems like thousands of extras in the more spectacular scenes. Hal Roach, director and producer of The Devils Brother" seems to have outdone himself in the matter of costuming, atmospheric settings, and Q meticulous care for spectacle and color.
 Saturday brings United Artists new hit, T Cover the Waterfront" starring Claudette Colbert with Ben Lyon, Ernest Terrence and a big supporting cast. This, incl dehtally, Is the last picture in which Ernest Terrence appears. His death a week ago climaxed his long and distinguished career as an actor. A special surrounding pro- gram of real merit accompanies the feature presentation.

 "J. P. Morgan & Co. employ nc bond salesmen and have never adopted any methods of high pres sure salesmanship," Whitney's statement said. We have distri. buted these securities through syn. dicates or selling groups consist ing in cases of the largest issues of as many as HOO or 1900 re- tail distributing houses, large and small, scattered throughout the country and invited by us to join in the offering of these securities because of their distributing ability and their standing and reputation in their own communities. We have believed in this method O! distribution and have consistently adhered to it.
 "Of the issues now in default, namely bonds of the Florida East Coast Railway, and of the Mobile and Ohio railroad, and of the Mis- sourl Pacific railroad. we ourselves purchased and still hold bonds of those issues or of issues junior to them on which our aggregate loss- es, based upon the difference be- tween our purchase price and the present market value. are greatly in excess of the profit that we made from these offerings"
 Analyzing the offerings, Whitney said that no investor in Morgan sponsored foreign securities has failed to receive the regular pay ment of interest or principal when due.
 The average offering price was 94.69 per cent and the average market price on May il was S1.07 per cent, a decline of less than 13 3.4 points, Whitney said. : His statement was designed to show that the Morgan house had been conservative in its public of- ferings.
 Thirty-three per cent of the out standing foreign bonds, Whitney said. were selling above the original offering price on May II.
 Whitney said the partnership does not sell common stock be. cause 1t might get into the hands of people who don't know what they are buying"
 Whitney was explaining how and why the firm made up it's "selected list" of cut rate buyers who got common Alleghany Corporation a, $20 in 1929. with the opportunity of immediate sale at a profit o1 about 75 per cent.
 ''In this and other cases" Whit. ney said, i've invited people whom we knew intimately and whom we believed had enough knowledge o1 finance to know what they were buying. to come along with us, no, to make specuiator's profit but in the course of time to make a profit as we hoped to do."
