Frequently little inves- tigation can uncover a multitude of sins; can take the secrecy out of racketeering; can make powerful pious manufacturers take off their masks. This investigation was the greatest episode of unmasking in our history. That must be put down as number one among it's fruits.

 No exchanges may operate as such after October l, 1884, unless it is admitted to registry by the commission. And before it is ad- mitted to registry it must comply with the requirements of the com- mission, furnish elaborate informa- tion about itself, satisfy the com mission that it can enforce it's au- thority and agree to abide by the rules of the commissin.

paign getting into its last stages polls appear to be bec- coming the rage. One has been going on in Bridgeport for quite some time. Now one has been started in Hartford among the recently made new voters of that city. Those who refused to state what their party affiliations are and who intimated that they would de- sire to be independents are the ones being boiled. First returns mark two outstanding charac- teristics, one being plenty of ''fancy" cutting and the other an overwhelming preference for County Detective Edward J. Hickey, g. o. p. shrieyalty nominee in Hartford county.
 A total of 1,5OO voters are being boiled. Only slightly more than half of the first votes received are cast for straight tickets. The cOmmun. ist party has received two votes. The democrats are head ing the race for governor, Uni- ted States senator and con- gressman, with Congressman NIaloney running ahead of the ticket. The polls are only being taken on the offices of U. $. senator, governor, congress- man in the first district and sheriff of Hartford county.
 U. s. Senator Carter Glass, democrat, of Virginia, has at. tempted to clear the mix-up in this state. as to whether he wants to see U. s. Senator F.. c. Walcott, republican, reelected. In answer to a telegram he states that he is strictly a dem- Ocrat, prefers election of dcm- Ocratic nominees if they are honest men and entertains Neep personal affection for Senator Walcott.
 Recently Floyd Rasmussen, candidate for the state senate in the 18th district on the local republican ticket, said he would favor some sort of lott tery to raise money for relief work. A lottery was proposed in New York recently, also, and a bill providing for the lOt- tery was passed by the alder men. Yesterday Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia vetoed the bill. He said, though, that his Ob- jections to the scheme for rais- ing funds for unemployment relief were based on legal 0pin- ions given by lawyers and not due to the objections offered by the city's clergymen.
 General Peppino Garibaldi, the internationally known Ital- ian sOldier-of-fortune, will be the guest of honor Sunday aft ernOOn at an Itaian republican rally in Hartford. Patrick J. DePasquale Is chairman of the committee In charge of ar- AdnSCinCltSs AuC SatHC.lnS WhA be held in Brown school.
 It's not possible to keep a good man down, 1t is claimed. We'll, Mayor Jasper McLevy apparently believes in this say ing. This is the fifth time that he has sought the office of gov ernor. The socialists do not ex- pect to carry the state. There fore, 1t is likely that he will run again two years hence. He has a precedent to follow. He ran for the office of mayor of Bridgeport on the socialist ticket ten times before he was elected chief executive of the Park City and when his victory came last year his plurality was 6,OOO.
 Meeting yesterday in Meri- den, ten Yale university pro- fessors signed a manifesto urging election of Congressman Francis T. MaIoney of Meriden to the office of u. S. senator. The congressman is running on the democratic ticket. The announcement of the endorse.

JUST IMAGINE :!
Good Evening.

Years ago there were no radios To give you all the news; No noise and blare of loud speakers, No pounding out of blues No one to tell you constantly
 In voice so soothing and mild To try crisp crunchy crumpets Good for grownup or child Or to be lulled by three-quarter music Muted softly on the strings, With interruptions after each number About the joy some pink cream brings. Years ago there were no radios, Newspapers sufficed for news; And victrola and parlor piano Furnished all the love yous.

PRICES FLUCTUATE
IN BOND MARKET.
Fail to Develop Any Sig
nificant Trend-Treasury
Issues Are Higher.
BY BERNARD S. O'HARA,
Associated Press Financial Writer,

NEW YORK, November 22.-Bond
prices failed to develop any significant
trend today, and quotations fluctuated
within narrow limits in most instances
United States Treasury issues
worked moderately higher, including
guaranteed obligations. Treasury IS
of 1951-55 gained 5-32 of a point at
100 9-32. while the 3As of 1941 rose
4-32 to 103 1882.
Rail bonds were uneven and hesi-
tant, but except for loss of nearly 2
points in New York Central IS of 2013,
which declined to 5SA, changes were
confined to fractions. Erie SIS of 1875
gained y of point at 661a, and Gre t
Northern AIS, Missouri Pacific IS and
Union Pacific As improved. Pennsyl-
vania AIS, Southern Pacific 4las and
Baltimore & Ohio 415s declined.
Among the utilities, American Tele-
phone SIS of 1865 dipped 4 to 1925,
while Consolidated Gas 51zs, Interna-
tional Telephone SIS and Duquesne
Light AIS eased.
Industrial issues showed little
change. Youngstown Sheet g. Tube
SIS, National Dairy 51as and Armour
& Co. AIS improved slightly, but
Texas Corp. SIS and American Smelt-
ing SIS dipped.
