A Thought for Today
Up To The Voters Now

On Tuesday next, November 6, the people will decide whether they want President Roosevelt's recovery program carried through to a successful conclusion. Fortunately, the public is prepared to render what may be the most important popular verdict in the nations history.
 The people are well informed, They heard Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1882 urge the supreme need for the enactment by the Congress of broad and comprehensive program for relief, recovery and reform. They chose that year large majority in both branches whom they believed could be relied upon to enact such policies into law and the public interest was sustained throughout both sessions.
 The soul-satisfying feature of this rare experience is the existence on every hand of the positive proof of progress toward normal conditions, evidence that is visual and vivid. The expression public wei fare" is as old as the hills None can re- call when it was not by-Word of the Oid Guard when it served their purpose to push up already tottering tariff walls in this section or in that. But it has seldom had national application.
 Here at last is broad program actually in effect which literally embraces the well rare or all or Cne peOple, nOC only III humanitarian spirit but based on the indis- putable economic premise, studiously ig- nored by the reactionary political leader ship, that the Nation ''cannot endure half boom and half broke."
 A circumstance that augers we'll for emphatic support of the Presidents work of restoration is the evident insincerity of the Old Guard campaign. Their spokes- men attacked the constitutionality of all of the Roosevelt measures; they assailed as bureaucracy and regimentation the great cooperative movement out of de- pression and they deplored what they termed "liberty" in the country's greatest . era of liberty. At last they advocated return to the old system of greed under which for years nothing whatever was done to forestall the disaster or subse- quently to relieve the suffering of it's inno- cent victims.
 The fixed period of the more vital emer- gency laws was two years from the spring of 1883 and with his customary candor the President has explained wherein some of them require the revision he had pre- dicted might be necessary when they were enacted. Can there then be any doubt that the very least we can do is to elect Congress on whose loyal cooperation he can confidently rely?

nominee in the 18th district To our way of thinking that's worth while doing.
 The election of Mayor Hayes to the position of Lieutenant Governor on Tues day will virtually assure him of election to the goyernorship in 1886. That IS no idle boast. It is no secret, either. It's widely discussed in both democratic and republican circles. Particularly in the latter is it feared, because defeat Tues day would cause the disintegration of the Roraback machine. Mayor Hayes has not waged a personal campaign. He has sought the endorsement of the New Deal policies of President Roosevelt and the administration of Governor Cross. To- night we ask the voters to give thought to 1886 as we'll as 1884. Your overwhelml- ing support of Mayor Hayes Tuesday is an indication of what you promise for him in 1936

She Was A Pirate But Always 9 Lady .y

If tales of pirates. bold excite your fancy, reflect upon the fact that there was once lady pirate "a gallant wench who sank ships, slit throats, and made. holy ter TOT out of herself generally. but who never forgot that girl will get herself talked about if she lets, the boys take undue liberties
 This dashing female is the hero inc of Pirate Wench," springht- ly novel by Frank Shay. She was born the daughter of an English tavern mistress, she ran away in her teens to don mems clothing and go soldering in the Low Countries, and she wound up as the terror of the Spanish Main; in deed, before she got through she sacked the budding town of New Orleans.
 There really was such a lady, says MT Shay. She must have been a lulu; at any rate her fic- tionized portrait is a gaudy one, although one is just trifle aston ished to find her so insistent on preserving, through all the footing and killing, her own matronly in- viola bility {.
 It is a little like finding Ca pone muscle man pridfhg himself on his refusal to swear.
 Published by Ives Washburn, Inc, the book sells for $2.50.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-11-03
A Potential Governor

Waterbury should be vitally con- cerned over the election of Tuesday. We have an opportunity to elect to the re- sponsible position of Lieutenant Cover nor our own chief executive Mayor Frank Hayes. In his two and one half terms in office he has more than lived up to ad- vance predictions. He has given the city good government under tremendous han dicaps. One was the depression; the other continuous criticism and opposition from dissatisfied citizens.
 When the democrats convened at East ern Point in September to nominate state ticket no mans name was more ire quently mentioned than that of Frank Hayes. And no man was more deter mined to resist all demands that he accept place on the ticket than Frank Hayes. We can personally vouch for this fact. That he finally acceded to the pressure placed on him by leading members of the party, to which he has always given freely of his time and resources, can be laid to the fact that he is first, last, and always a democrat.
 Without pushing any other candidate on the democratic ticket into the back ground we feel safe in stating that Mayor Hayes is easily it's outstanding personality. His record in Waterbury is we'll known; he is personally liked; his earnestness and sincerity have won him the respect and the admiration of thousands of voters who sprobably never saw him until he appeared son the public platform in campaigning thr0ughout the state this fall. In short he < has added the needed color and fire to the ticket that will carry it to success.
 < Knowing this, we feel sure that Water bury is going to turn out en masse for it's mayor and accord him the most glorious reception that any man ever received at the polls in this city. In doing so we pay sa fine compliment to His Honor and we also do the same thing for His Excellency Governor Cross, Congressman Francis T. MaIorey, and all the other candidates, in- clnding the several from Waterbury, At torney Joseph Smith, the congressional nominee. Representatives John Thoms and Daniel Mahaney, Senator Joseph Law lor. and George T, Culhane, the senatorial
