GREENWICH TO NORWALK
Bridgeport Telegram)

| Thanks to Judge J. Kenneth Bradley of Westport who worked actively and vigorously for the Merritt highway in the last session of the legislature we now have some more information about this project, and it is information of a reassuring character.
 Highway Commissioner Mac donald has told Judge Bradley definitely that the highway will be
 built all the way from the New York state line to Norwalk. Begin- ming within the next two months and continuing for the coming year, the state will dot all the necessary cutting, filling and grad ing on this long stretch of high way. The following year the pave- ment will be laid, so that in less than two years time, the highway will be complete from Norwalk to the Hutchinson parkway cOnnec- tion at the New York state line. This is a better proposition than any that has been made, short of building the highway in it's en- tirety at once. A sector from Nor walk to the New York line will be of real use; it will draw a great deal of the traffic from the most congested part of the Post road. Furthermore, if the highway commissioner opens up this whole stretch at once and starts the work of cutting, filling and grad ing, he will be able to give em- ployment to thousands of persons. Much of this work can continue through the winter. months, all though the paving is confined to the summer.
 Presumably the highway from Norwalk to Stratford will be com pleted the following year. Against this method of doing the work there is only one objection which is, that the building of the high way in its entirety at this time would give. employment to more men at time when employment is needed.
 r On the other hand, in favor of the method proposed by the high way commissioner is the fact that the entire cost will come out of available highway funds without borrowing, and 1t will not be nec- essary to make the Merritt high way toll road in order. to amor tize federal loans.

Waterbury Need Take Its Hat Off to No One in Connecticut,
 Politically Speaking
Editor of the Democrat

Editor of the Democrat
 Because State Senator Frank S. Bergin of New Haven has been appointed district attorney for Con- necticut over Democratic State Chairman David A. Wilson. note that aAlocal editor sheds a few crocodile tears for the Waterbury democratic organization. He lam ents that Waterbury's democracy is on the wrong side of the fence. He ruefully hopes this city's lead CTS will see the ''error" of their ways and become the tail to Ma tional Committeeman Archibald McNeil's political kite.
 Such a view is almost as amlis- ing as the weather prophets pre- dictions on snowstorms or the same editors analysis of the mi grations of the gray squirrels.
 Would it not be proper to re- mind the gentleman that Water bury has just had a city election in which the electorate indorsed Mayor Hayes and his administra- tion by the most overwhelming majority in the dty's history? And that the democratic victory here
  port, the home town of MT Me Neil, the socialists won the city election in the greatest upset in state political history? And would it be unkind to remind him that two years ago in a democratic avalanche that MT McNeil, lost to President Roosevelt and the na- tional party, the congressional Lelection in his district? That's the kind of leadership he would have Waterbury follow, eh? From a rock ribbed republican point of view it would be excellent.
 Waterbury's democracy is as steady as the Gibraltar. Year in and year out it pours out its gen. erous majorities to the city, state and national tickets.
 It showed its metal in the recent city election by giving the Hayes administration the most glorious Pabproval while other cities and towns throughout the length and breath of the land were smashing up machines. This in itself gives Waterbury the brightest spot in the sun.
 By giving Governor Cross two years ago the greatest vote a gov- ernor ever received here, Water- bury democrats demonstrated that they recognize no such thing as a new or old guard. It's just 100 per | cent democracy with them. And | they'll do it again.
 Waterbury's democratic chief tains have asked no patronage, state or nationa1-wise. Can other cities with their Dolans and Nc Neils say as much?
 Waterbury's voters do their own | thinking and do not walt for ye editor to consult his crystal fol | them. And that's perhaps why one editor fell by the wayside in the recent city election. That's why Waterbury rules the democratic roost in the state today.

LOVES VALUES

"A pencil dull. a broken toy,
A little worn-out shoe,
Remnants recalling vanished JOY
In days when they were new;
A faded rose with broken stem
They have no quoted worth.
No one would give cent for them;
l wouldn't take the earth.
A picture drawn with childish hands.
A little note to say
That love a little heart commands
And shall command always
More dear than gold or diadem
