Guessing about what the historians of the , future are going to put into their text books is futile and profitless pastime. ordinarily. But it seems pretty safe bet that they will find at least a couple of paragraphs for that Kidnapping trial now going on in Oklahoma City. More than any other criminal trial in years perhaps this case is symbolic of the present era. Not since Al Capone was sent to prison for failing to pay his income tax has there been a courtroom scene that spoke SO eloquently of the kind of society we have put together in modern America For the trial does not simply represent an effort by the courts to fix responsibility for peculiarly inSolent crime. It is test whether the courts can even make such an effort in the first place; whether soeietys ability to inquire into the acts of the underworld is to be at the mercy of the underworld's own defiance.
 Consider the situation for moment. To begin with. we have a vicious attempt to extort a large sum of money from wealthy man a crime whose mere occurrence in- dieates a crack in- the fabric of society. Then the man suspected of having cooked up this crime is caught He forces his way out of one of the strongest jals in the land is caught again. and finally comes to trial.
 At his trial the authorities feel it necessary to turn the court into a vertable armed camp. The room is guarded by machine guns riflemen patrol the corridors officers in court are ordered to open fire on the chief defendant if anything suspicious happens. Meanwhile the underworld puts pressure on the states witnesses. Written threats of death are received. One witness is bluntly asked. Are you fool enough to think the government can protect you forever?" The chief defendant makes sinister asides' whenever the chief prosecutor rises to speak. Now all of this simply means that there care desperadoes in this land whose power is almost as great as that of organized society itself The mere task of bringing them to trial taxes soeicty's resources to the utmost. The whole story of the trial will tell future students volumes about American life in the year l933.

that the fifth district congressman didn't think much of the C. C. C.
 All of which provoked the New Britain writer. Charles Ralph Newton, to bit of criticism himself. He believes that Repre- sentative Goss said merely that the c. C. C. was an experiment. while the question of national defense was one proved by exper- fence. Still if we recall that Mount Carmel session it provoked some little discussion in editorial circles And as yet Representative Goss, has not seen fit to enter the discussion. That is not. to our way of thinking, an indication that he admits the Hogan charge. Representative Goss has been religiously silent on all controversial subjects for some months now.
 But as for the C. C. c. it no longer is in the experimental stage. We don't think that even Mir Goss himself would say that now. The first six months have proved it to be successful. It was ridieuled in many circles at the beginning. A lot of people thought it was nothing more than Roosevelt brain storm on which lot of money would be wasted. Instead it did just exactly what its proponents claimed it would do. And with all reenlistments showing the same whole hearted spirit of cooperation who can now speak slightingly of it? That may be beside the Goss-Hogan-N Newton issue. but it perhaps might make individual attitudes different to- day than they were in June.

No Representations

We had looked for Representative Francis Hogan's recent letter to the editor of this paper to stir up some excitement around the state. A few days previous to the appear ance of the letter on this page Charles Ralph Newton favored this paper, as well as several others in the state, with communications in which Representative Hogan was taken to task for critieising speech made by Con- qressman Edward w. Goss of Waterbury. Some background is required before any comment is made.
 Recently Representative Hogan. now con- nected with the state motor vehicle depart men, in the course of an address to the Civilian Conservation Corps at Camp Rob- erts took exception to remarks credited to Representative Goss of several months ago. Addressing the U. S. Reserve Officers Association at Mount Carmel last June Representative Goss is alleged to have spoken sather slightinsly of Civilian Conservation Corps and to have claimed that 1t would be of little use in the reforestston program. We may have the exact criticism wrong but at any rate it was charged by Mr Hogan

Although Connecticut has been pretty good about insisting that state highway de- partment funds should not be diverted for any other purpose than maintaining the de- partment and building roads. other states are not so fortunate. A nationwide survey has recently revealed that diversity of purposes are being served by highway funds. Out in Illinois there is an injunction suit attacking the diversion of one-eent gasoline tax for retirement of unemployment bonds. Texas. Florida. New Hampshire. Idaho. Missouri South Carolina. and Arkansas all divert some portion of their gasoline tax for road bonds. That isn't SO bad. But some of the above named states and many others use such funds for schools. While this is a most worthy purpose. we can't quite see why motorists should be taxed on the amount of gasoline they consume in their autos to build new schools or repair old ones. The idea isn't sound. If we divert money for this reason from highway funds.
 why not from others' The principle is just the same. The result. however. wouldn't be altogethsr to our liking We think that

So good old Mike Donlin is dead Yes. and every newspaper you pick up this week is full of anecdotes about Mike. In his day he was quite man. Mike was not only baseball player of some note. but also he managed to make the headlines when he married a variety performer, the late be- loved Mabel Hite. After Donlin married her during the height of his diamond career he abandoned baseball. His retirement prae- tieally finished him as star. because when he returned in 1914 after Mabel Hite had died and Donlin had remarried he was never the same flashy fielder or slugger that won the hearts of Giants fans back in the days of Christy Mathewson, Donlin was great attraction in his day. though. And up until his death he remained eolorful personality. always popular in the circles in which he mixed Oddly enough Donlin was only 56, Not too old. But strenuous life undoubtedly shortened it.

ly signicant. If the eighteenth amendment should be repealed late this year, not long after most town elections have been held, such towns would not have chance to vote on the question until the fall of 1884.
 During the intervening months liquor permits might be granted in towns that do not want liquor stores but have no chance to say NO" until their next annual election. To be sure, a negative, vote at that time will void any liquor permit which may have been granted, but the fact. that liquor store had be- come established might make q dif- ference in the battle. At any rate. probably not few towns in the state will be surprised and disap- pointed to learn that the oppor- tunity to register their sentiments on the sale of hard liquor may come too late to prevent its being sold for several months, the period between the repeal of the amend fnent and the next annual town meeting.

COMMISSIONER REBUKED
(Bridgeprt Telegram)


 That was a pretty sharp official spanking" which President John J. Policy of the New Haven railroad administered to State Highway Commissioner John A. Macdonald in the hearing before the public works advisory board held in Bridgeport this week.
 President Policy, member of the advisory board. had listened to the commissioners excuse for not proceeding with various high way projects. He reminded the commissioner that he Is in com. mand of a large and efficient high way department with plenty oi engineers and assistants and tha' the board naturally expected ths presentation of some proJecti which promised to give immediate work to the unemployed.
 Commissioner Macdonald started to explain but Mir Peliey waved away his explanations. l. We are not concerned with ex' plantations" he said. We want ac' tion. If you coafine your recon mendations to jobs which ough | to get the preference = that is jobs near the centers of unemploy ment-you can pretty nearly antic ipate favorable action for sucl projects by this board and spees | the work of unemployment whicl | is the object of this legisiation." That was well said and VIII b' appiauded throughout the state Mir Pelisy's pointed hint that sucl work ought to be near centers c unemployment we hope was no wasted on the commissioner.

Alvia P. Mccoy

Nothing has so shocked the com munity as the sudden and tragic death of Aivia P. Mccoy. Although not a resi- dent of this city of recent years he was frequent visitor here Some years ago, though, during the time that he was build ing up the statewide music company that today bears his name. his business social and fraternal activities centered here, His death is all the more tragic in that it follows so closely that of his brother, who was allied with him in the music business for so many years.
 Many of us recall the Alvia P. Mccoy who worked at the Apotheearies Hall Com pany and also in the insurance business. rep resenting the Aetna Life. That was good many years ago. His first introduction to the music field came in 1906 when he joined the late Archibald Rice in the old Fulton Music Company. There were several prom inent music firms in the city at the time, but several of them were merged through the hard work and perseverance of Mir Mccoy. We can recall the Drisss and Smith, New York Piano Company, and also the Skinner Music Company in more recent years.
 Having made his mark in Waterbury, Mir Mccoy moved about the state and was sue eessful in setting up branches of MeCoys Incorporated, in several cities. He made his headouarters in Hartford with the late Franklin V. Mccoy. his brother, remaining in this city. It wasn't many months ago that Alvia McCoy's son, Alvin, joined the organization at the Waterbury store. It IS particularly unfortunate that we must record the passing of second Mccoy in 1853. He will be missed not merely by his organization. but by many friends in this city and in the others where he extend- ed his business and where his personality was highly appreciated.

A Creditor Nation

Being creditor nation" apparently isn't what it's cracked up to be. After eongratuatins itself for years on its favor able balance of trade. its growth of for eisn investments and all-round creditor po- sition. the country hears this blunt state. ment from Secretary of Agriculture Wallace: America is a cerditor nation to the tune of one billion dollars annually. but as a nation she has debtor psychology
 The American people. democrats and republicans alike. are still essentially high tariff in their attitude. Reciprocal tariff agreements may be negotiated, but the in. crease in foreign purchasing power result ing thereby will not be sufficient to pay satisfactory price for our surplus wheat and cotton unless the attitude of the American people and American congressman changes radically. The American people are disil- lusioned about lending money abroad, and it will be difficult to float foreign. loans in their present temper. A creditor nation which insists on selling more abroad than it imports. and which demands the payment of foreign debts to the last dollar. while at the same time it shrieks for high tariffs. is due for terrific disillusionment."
 Similar statements have been made good many times by good many newspapersfi re- gardless of politics. but so far don't seem to have produced much effect, at least on Con- gress. The public may be learning more rapidly than Congress.

Writer Asks Voters to Compare Candidates

1 Dewey" Roach also saw plenty of | service in the World war. More- over, he is an excellent sheriff and 1, fills his position in capable man. ner. That should mean something. don't think anybody has ever heard a "peep" about MT Roach as far as performing the many trying duties connected with his office. As an officer of the law, he must be able and trustworthy for he does business with some of the biggest law firms in town. If you are democrat, you should not cut Dewey" because his op. ponent has made Q personal ap- peal. The genial sheriff Is a credit to his office and is entitled to your vote.
 Then. there Is Johnny" Fitz. maurice, who always has smile , when you meet him either in the city clerks office or any other place. Do you know of any reason why you should not be 100 percent for him? Bear in mind also that he. is an excellent official as is John DiCorpo. his assistant, an un. I assuming young man, who has lots of ability and knows how to treat the public. As for the candidates for city treasurer you all know Ed" Tut. tie. His opponent, Harley Tripp Is like Mir Futile, one of the city's leading bankers. But you never see MT Tripp at any of the repub. lican rallies. where all the mud is thrown at the, democratic ticket As a matter of fact he is q member of Mayor Hayes finance board and knows what first class ad. ministration the city has.
 | do not like to make compar. isons, but isn't the same true of all the other candidates on the demo. cratic ticket? They have been tried snd found to be very good officials. Don't you think. then, in fairness to yourself, to your party and to your city, you should go to the polls on Tuesday and cast a straight democratic ticket?
 Respectfully submitted,

Editor of the Democrat:

 As the campaign is drawing to a close, think 1t would be well for the average man or woman, who has the interest of Waterbury at heart, to give little thought to the candidates, who will be voted on next Tuesday, This applies not only to democrats, but also to the independent voters, as well as the rank and file of the republican party.
 Is 1t not agreed on all sides that Mayor Frank Hayes and the other officials have done well, consider ing the trials and tribulations the city has experienced during these dark days of depression In what way could Andrew Cooney be an improvement over Frank Hayes, as the head of this progressive munic- ipality? MT Hayes has been an official who has carried on his du- ties in such a way that he is looked upon as a fine executive through out the state. Of course he has, not pleased everybody in his official acts, but he has conducted his office in manner that should bring plenty of consideration from the type of citizen that wants good government.
 With all due respect to Elmer Parker, why should the electorate prefer him to Dan" Leary, tho city comptroller The position he fholds Is very difficult, when 1t comes to satisfying the thousands of people who come in contact with him in the course of one year, not to mention two. It Is only nat ural that people should get peeved over acquisitions for patronage. That has been true of all comp trollers. It seems to me that the present incumbent has been some- what ahead of the men that have proceeded him. It Is generally conceded that he is a good business man. The manner in which he has handled the city finances gives the city much financial prestige. Even his opponents admit that he Is both courteous and efficient. He seems to realize that he is a pub lie servant and has been very care- full of the feelings of the men and women who have done business with him. The only thing that l ever hear about him is that he pays too much attention to his | friends. Instead of that being a fault, l think 1t is an asset. move considerably around the city, but among lawyers or others I never hear a complaint about the way Dora Egan supervises the town clerks office. If you don't believe that, ask the lawyers. the realtors, or the other men and women that do business there. This is no reflection on MT Bane, her opponent, but why under the sun should any democrat, at least, cut Miss Egan for MT Bane. There Is no reason whatsoever, and they cannot give you any, if they dis. cuss the merits of the two candi- dates.
 Then take Sheriff Dewey" Roach. read lot in the papers about Frank Downs, his opponent. It is only a few years ago, yes I think that it was either two or four, that MT Downs was working for the democratic ticket. He has a perfect right to run with the re- publican party, but why should he expect support from the democrat- ic ranks? Admitting that he is a veteran and for that reason is de- serving of some consideration,

We'll at last one mortgage has declined to accept one of Uncle Sam's federal home loan bonds. It happened over in Meriden where representative of building and loan association declared his client not will ing to take the bonds in exchange for mort gages held on certain property. The reason given was that the government does not guarantee the principal of the bond. but solely the interest. Hence. since the mort gage approximated the valuation of the property the exchange did not loom as wise. There'll be others too. quick to pick on Uncle Sam for this clause in the law.
