BY millions they jam into major and
minor league and semi-pro parks during
the summer, with the grand climax COM
ing in the, world series. Interest in base
ball may be waning, but the figures don't
show it. The season Just closed was one
of record profit in many cities.
Millions play golf, but even the great
est of golf matches draw galleries that are
dwarfed by the throngs which pack even
minor league stands.
One of the most torridly fought tennis
Journeys in recent years drew gate
recently that would be only fair weekday
crowd at most major league baseball parks.
The Americas Cup race, magnificent
event though it was, stirred comparatively
little interest among the rank and file OF
sporting fans. Prize fight and wrestling
fans are legion, but no one seriously con.
siders either pastime a rival of baseball
as an attraction.
Basketball has it's devotees, but they
are fer in the minority the country over.
Football, it is true, is magnet for mann
moth, throngs - but for only eight or ten
Saturdays in the year, while winning
baseball team pulls fans past the turn
stiles for 154 games a season.
America is singularly blessed with clean
sports, all of which have their place in the
scheme Of things. But there is only one
national sport, without even a close rival,
whether played in magnificent major
league plant or on sandlot back of the
warehouse - and that's baseball. If there
be doubters, let them watch the crowds
before world series scoreboards and be
convinced.

A Thought for Today
Town Elections Close

An analysis of the outcome of the small
town elections held on Monday in Con-
necticut fails to materially offer anything
in the way of nourishment to the hopes
and aspirations of either party in the
coming election. The slight republican
gain, while it seems at this early stage in
the campaign to offer fair anchorage
to the windward, may long before the re-
manning month is over completely reverse
itself. For it must not be overlooked
that Mondays elections for the most part
hinged on purely local issues.
Yet the fact that the republicans
appear to have annexed five towns to their
belt in this the heyday of the democratic
party's ascendency cannot be minimized
on the part of the latter. It is warning
that should not go UNDECIDED. In any event
it will not be amiss to take it as such and
from now on be governed accordingly.
Further significance presents itself to
analysis in the fact that the larger towns
and, in fact, two small cities split about
even as far as republicans and democrats
are concerned in their total vote, Middle
town and Stamford. This, while it seems
like an even break, reacts against the
democrats more than the republicans.
For it is in the larger cities that the
democratic party has to muster it's
reserve strength.
However, on the other hand, the more.
or less fifty-fifty break upon the part OF
Mondays small city vote is again offset
by the fact from closer analysis that in
many of the small towns the democratic
party materially increased its majorities
Of over year and two years ago. That
is the republican party's strongest hold,
which, when once broken, brings the fight
back to the larger cities where the leading
sissues this year, more than heretofore,
will decide the final result.
That, as we have pointed out before,
brings the campaign down to cases. There
are many issues at stake in the coming
campaign in which the voters of Connec-
ticut are vitality interested. And upon
their proper, or improper, Interpretation
rests the question of victory, or defeat.
Both parties have chosen well in the mat
ter Of personnel as far as the makeup
Of the tickets goes. We sincerely doubt if
any fault could be found with single
candidate on either ticket, which makes
It all the more important that the many
issues must be properly presented.

Protect The Child

The fiendish murder Of little Lillian
Gallaher in Detroit has taught that city
a lesson that should stand out in flaming
letters before officials of every other city
in the country. It is the lesson that chill
dren sent forth from door to door to solicit
funds or to sell chances or merchandise
ever are in danger of falling into the
hands of degenerates.
It was on such an errand that Lillian
Gallaher went to her death. A few min
utes after leaving home to sell punch
board tickets for school benefit, she was
seized by the fiend who took her life,
stuffed her body into trunk, and then
fled.
Detroit fully realizes the menace at last,
and Police Commissioner H. A. Pickert
has called for an ordinance to put an end
to such activities of children. Appalling
as the cost is, the death of Lillian Gallaher
will not have been in vain if it can be the
means of saving the lives of other children
exposed to like peril.

Press Comment
UP INTEREST, UP VOTES
New York Sun.)

In the presidents message to the
Conference on Current Problems
he said:
If you were to ask me,
would tell you frankly that the
greatest achievement Of the past
two years has been the fact that
the American people have taken,
and are taking, a greater interest
in, and have acquired O better
understanding OF current prob. :
lens affecting their welfare and
the worlds welfare than at any
time az, least during the present
generation.
II this is true-and there are
many reasons for believing 1t to
be-then this increased interest
should be reflected In the size of
the vote in this falls elections.
The Maine campaign indicated an
unusual amount Of public interest
in the issues Of the day and the
Maine vote was a record one for
an Off year and only slightly under
the figures for 1882; also q year
when public interest was aroused.
Candidates for senator and rep
resentative, particularly those in
states or districts carried by a few
thousand votes in the 1882 cleo
ton, must know that their fate
this year depends on the votes Of
men and women who do not vote
regularly sbut who do appear at
the polls when the issues are stif-
ficiently rousing.
It ID o pity that, the privilege of
voting is not enough In itself to
bring every eligible person to the
polls, but It ID not. Issues are
need to do that; personalities help.
When issues and personalities both
are to be found in one campaign
then few voters are willing to let
somebody else decide the day. II
there has been q quickentng Of
public interest OF late It II because
the times make for such q growth.

Richberg's gradual conservatism.
All things are relative. The man
now chosen to guide the MIRA,
once became Disguised with big
business, threw mp profitable
Chicago law practice, dedicated
his life to the progressive move
ment.
He prosecuted Sam insult
when the rest Of Chicago was
worshipping at the shrine of In
sull's opera house. He hammered
at public utilities when it was
considered personally dangerous
to lift q voice against them. He
championed the Railway Broth
erhoods, became, the leading
defender of labor in the United
States.
BUSINESS FRIEND
Today big business, one-time
1attacker Of Richberg as a Wild
eyed assailant Of the country's
economic structure, no longer
looks upon him, with bullying
eyes.
They have found him temper
ate, considerable, understanding.
simultaneously, Richberg's old
labor cronies have been bitter in
their disappointment. They hold
him responsible for company
unions, the steel code, the much
criticized aluminium code.
Actually Richberg still is much
more liberal, much ore progress
sive than big business. Funda.
mentally he Ii o 'left of center"
man.
And probably nowhere in the
United States could the president
have found anyone who more
closely duplicates his own per-
s0nal views.
In making Richberg MIRA
chief of stan therefore Roose-
velt--more than most people
appreciate-will be running the
MIRA himself.
G. o. r.
Several old-line republicans
have been expressing themselves
rather vehemently in private
about the way things are going
within the republican national
committee.
Senator Dickinson has been
grumbling because he lacks sufh-
cient funds to run the midwest
campaign headquarters at Chi
cago. Charlie Curtis thinks the
new &. o. p. leaders haven't
properly kept their fingers on
the public pulse. Ex-senator Jim
Watson of Indiana won't even go
near Chairman Henry p. Fletch-
er and national headquarters.
And one group of state and
sectional leaders which came to
Washington to see Fletcher, got
the date mixed, found he was
away on a speaking trip, and
after d night trying to drown
their sorrow, left by next morn
ing's train.

Washington, Oct. 8 - Roose-
velt's reorganized MIRA has been
less than q week
But already it's structure has be-
come representative of the con-
fiicting forces within the country
today.
The national industrial recov-
cry board, in charge of adminis-
tering the NRA, is dominated by
business. It's slant 10 conservative.
The industrial m er gency
committee, which defines policy
for the NRA, is dominated by
some of the most liberal men,
bers Of the Roosevelt family. Its
slant is pro-labor, pro-farmer,
pro-social reform.
One group Is balanced on
against the other.
Whether this set-up is efficient,
remains to be seen. But that 1t
accurately represents the grow
ing conflict between labor and
industry, is certain. This has
become the biggest problem Of
the administration today.
Sitting as chief coordinator
between these two conflicting
groups is the man who next to
Roosevelt has made record for
coordination - Donald r. Rich
berg.
MILITARY LINEUP
In military terms-here, is how
he fits into the revised NRA
picture:
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES -
The president.
GENERAL STAFF-The in
dustrial emergency committee.
CHIEF OF STAFF - Rich
berg, director of the industrial
emergency committee.
BRIGADIER GENERALS

MIRA administration.
Sometimes working behind the
scenes, sometimes out in front,
Richberg actually is running the
show.
One year ago knowledge Of
this would have made business
goggeleyed with horror. Richberg
would have been branded as
dangerous radical, an ordent
labor enthusiast, an advocate OF
Moscowism.
But in the past year, Richberg
has changed.
One change has been his in
creasing cleseness to the presi-
dent. He was reasonably lose
before but in recent months he
has gone In and out of the
White House almost constantly.

Use Radio Police Cars!

We note in the growing demand for
better police protection in Waterbury
against the steady increase of violent
crime during the past few months that
the superintendent of police promises
something in the way of relief just as
soon as it is possible to rearrange his de-
partment We have perfect confidence,
not only in Chief McLean's willingness to
do it, but ability as well, if given the
necessary cooperation.
That such action is fast becoming ne
cessity needs only to be answered from the
Increasing headlines of holdups, robberies
and other crimes every day in the columns
of this newspaper. The security and
welfare of Waterbury's citizens need this
attention, even if it necessitates some
deviation upon the part of the city fathers
from the present strict economy program
ia the police as well as other departments.
However, in lieu of any suggestions
which the Democrat knows are only too
numerous at time like this, it might be
well if the board of safety looked into the
idea of q radio patrol. It is being used,
not only now in big cities, but small ones
likewise -Massachusetts, we believe has
almost a statewide city coverage; also
Rhode Island and many others states.
Furthermore, the matter OF a police
radio system, especially at night, solves
the matter of additional patrolmen to
cover smaller beats. Used in connection
with dozen, or SO, police cars, equipped
with radio and two men each, it almost
cuts residential coverage to a minimum,
and is far more effective and speedy in
detecting and running down the criminal.
Such system either operated by the po-
lice department, or as it is done in many
places, through local radio station, is
wonderful asset to any city's police depart
ment as well as time and money saver
In the long run. Waterbury would do well
to look into it, and set the pace for
Connecticut.
