Naugatuck, Juno 2s---A Water. burian, whoSo name could not be learned, had narrow escape from serious injury and possible death yesterday afternoon when his car was in an accident nt tho Standard Oil gas station on tho west side of South Main street just above the Hotchklss street curve.
 The Waterburlan's car skidded apparently when rounding the curve travelling north, shot across the road into tho gas station yard and smashed n heavy tire pump 50 hard that 1t was knocked of at the base. The car continued on and swerved Into a car owned by John Barnett, station attendant, and caroomed into the white fence at the rear of tho property.
 The driver was shaken ID but not hurt and considering the various objects he crashed into, spectators after tho crash won. dered how he ever came out alive. His auto had It's fender and mud guard bent badly and the wind. shield was shattered but the drivor was not even cut by tho flying glass.
 Tho attendants car was damaged considerably but tho matter was amieably settled between the two parties. Just how the accident oc- curred is not known.

SlOvakia Will Not
Return to Hungary
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
In his latest review of European
affairs Mr.. Frank H. Simonds makes
the startling assertion that the states
men Of the Little Entente keep Hun
gary excluded from any system of
Danubian peace and order" by refus-
ing to satisfy her just claim" Is
it not rather Hungary herself who
prefers to stand aside by putting up
her lust" claims? To my knowl-
edge. not one Of the Little Entente
statesmen wishes to keep Hungary
excluded from Danubian peace and
order. They are ready to cooperate
with Hungary, but not at the price
of putting the clock back, of revert
ing to the old pre-war system of
"Danubian peace and order" to the
very system which brought on the
World War. Mr.. Simonds, in COM
mon with the Magyar landowners,
does not seem to realize that the new
territorial arrangement in Central
Europe has come to stay. 1t is not
the CZechs who refuse to make any
concessions to the Hungarians, but
the inhabitants of Slovakia them
selves. The Slovaks, Magyars and
Jews inhabiting Slovakia would do
everything in their power to prevent
the return of any part of their land
under the old feudal regime. Times
have changed and the old order of
things with them
As to the possibility of partitioning
CzechoSlovakia between Germany
and Hungary, 1t seems to belong to
the fertile field of Mr.. Simonds'
imagination. ALES BROZ.

Single Tax Proposal Is
Thoroughly Democratic
To the Editor OF The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
All that know is what read in
the dictionary defining socialism. The
Standard dictionary gives us the two
essentials of socialism as % public
collective ownership Of land and cap
ital, and (2) public collective man
agement of all industries. 1t is q
well-known fact that Socialists
themselves differ widely in their in
depreciation Of socialism. Perhaps
the extreme of inconsistency was
reached when on two occasions the
Socialist party indorsed in their plat
form the single tax. This Is very
much as though the Ku-Klux Klan
should, in their official program, in
dorse the Catholic Church!
The single tax and socialism can
no more mix than can oil and wa
ter. Socialism means the widest pos
sible extension of governmental pow
ers. The single tax holds to the
democratic program OF restricting
the powers of government to the
minimum, in harmony with the prin-
ciple that that government Is best
which governs least" Single takers
contend that the protective tariff is
essentially socialistic, and they would
therefore abolish all duties upon i'm
ports in favor of international free
trade. The Socialist program, as in
terpreted by Mr.. Norman Thomas,

existence Of the distressed and the
needy. Like the sun shining through
clouds, the fund brightens the human
landscape Of the city; prompts cour-
age in the hearts of hundreds Of men,
women and little children, and slim
ulates spiritual resistance to trials
which otherwise might seem COM
pletely overwhelming. The benefac-
tion, OF course, cannot be weighed in
scales nor measured With yardstick,
but the Nations Capital would be
ugly, bitter and cruel were it absent.
Walk through the humber neighbor-
hoods of the District and the truth
will be apparent-the serenity to be
seen in the faces Of the aged and
the innocent joy which providentially
is to be traced in the smiles of the
young derive In the final analysis
from a confidence that society has
not abandoned those who lack the
power to help themselves.
The philosopher, observing the
Chest campaign, recalls the doctrine
summarized by the genius of Shake
speare in the speech of Portia in
The Merchant of Venice:
The quality of mercy is not strand
1t droppeth as the gentle rain from
Heaven
Upon the place beneath; it is twice
bleSS'd;
1t blesseth him that gives, and him
that takes.
For folk with less skill Of express
sion there is merely the warm and
congenial feeling which an anony-
nous individual has epitomized in the
remark, II feel more at peace when
have tried to make some one else
happy" In such a case, surely, the
blessing Is zeal.

Why was it that certain noted con-

publican parties failed to issue their

rights. liberties. individual initiative
and in opposition to regimentation
when the days OF 1929 and 1880 dis

1t could no longer levy tribute upon
the capitalistic barons of industry and
then it would no longer be able to

but the Liberal party in England has
tried most of these schemes to deal
with effects. There Is only one ade-
quate and sufficient remedy for
existing evils and that Is socialization
OF our present capitalist cOllectivism
so that our huge sources of wealth
may be justly distributed to those who
earn, instead Of the bulk of the sur

per cent, while the 80 per cent is not
allowed any individual initiative!

Community Chest Ideals.

There are many approaches to the
Community Chest. Some will give
because they believe it to be their
duty; others because they deem 1t
privilege to share with the less for
tunate. Again, there undoubtedly are
some who will participate under the
influence of a certain curious psy-
chology of fear-charity as they see
it is kind of bulwark against social
disorder. But much more numerous

New York State Legislature elections
may happen in other States. And 1t
Is in such contests that the real
strength Of the G. o. P. Is likely to
be manifested.
For years there has been discussion
of the possibility and probability Of
political realignments which would
place all the progressives in one party
and all the conservatives in another.
The Republican party has had
progressive wing and a conservative
wing, with a great mass Of adherents
who stand between extreme progress
sivism and conservatism. The same
conditions have existed in great part
in the Democratic party also. The
gold Democrats of 1896 and their de-
scendants are fundamentally little
more radical today than they were
thIrty-eight years ago. The last major
attempt to form new, or third party,
came in 1924 when the late Senator
Robert NJ La Toilette stood for Presi-
dent, with Senator Burton K. Wheeler,
q Democrat, as his running mate. 1t
failed. Its lack of success was due
to the ingrained strength Of the two
old major political parties and their
hold on the great mass of minor offices
throughout the States.
A great stumbling block to the dis
integration Of the Democratic party
and also to a new national alignment
Of voters has been the solid South"
No one doubts that there are many
conservatives and also many progress
sives in the South. But it would be
courageous prognosticator who would
assert that either the conservative
Democrats Of the South or the progress
sive group would desert their party
Affiliations.

Regards New Deal Moves
As BallyhOO and Bunk
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
OF all the unadulterated bunk that
has been handed out by this New Deal
administration nothing was more
misleading and ridiculous than the
Presidents overriding Of Moffett's 6
per cent interest rate on the housing
loans. Just before elections the PreSi-
dent exclaims with Indignation that
he will not permit the people Of this
country to be gouged on their home
loans, that he will not approve e rate
in excess Of 5 per cent yearly.
How in the name of all good COM
mon sense can he expect thinking
people to believe in him after such a
display Of inconsistency? For Is 1t
not fact that within the year he
backed 100 per cent the establish
ment OF codes for building material
companies that called for increases in
household materials, wood, cement,
brick. etc, running up to 40 per cent?
surely the consumer wasn't so i'm
portant when these codes were estab-
lished.
l am afraid this one example of
pallyhoo is only too characteristic of
the whole sum and substance of this
administration.
have been Democrat all nv life
put l have come to believe that
would prefer corrupt Republicans in
once to the fish nor fowl" Demo-
Gratis that make up this crazy pattern
New Deal. There have ALWAYS been
many conflicting elements within the
natural Democratic party, but never
anything TO compare with this brand
Oh democracy. Some, of course. would
say that it's a good thing TO have
many elements united in the admin
Stratlon, presumably to strike a bal
ahce. Ihat might be all right from q
political standpoint and it is under
standable, so many persons being in
vowed, but when you get down tn
administrative policy and procedure
and the head Of the administration
from month to month is SO in con-
nict with himself, 1t makes me won
DER whether We really will emerge
On top with the rudder of the shin
OF state in such hands.
1t all reminds me Of a story 7 read
years ago about doctor who moved
into small town and started doing
experimental work in a laboratory he
mad set up. Every one was asked up
TO see him at his work. The things
he did seemed very strange to the
people, and what he claimed he
would be able to accomplish sounded
SO fantastic that they would have
doubted him but for his supreme
confidence in himself and his expert
ments. Just about the time his fan
tastic experiments were proving to be
useless. two attendants from a dis
tant insane asylum located him and
took him back from where he escaped.
I'm very fearful that this admins
tration is going to come to the same
inglorious end.
