 He added he was not aware of any intention of summoning spe- cial meeting of the League of Na- tions council to csonsider the sit- uation.
 Implicitly disappearing German influence in Austria, Sir John irl- dicated Britain preferred that Aus tria make a direct demand on Ger many to cease interference, rather than for outside powers to act
 Sir John announced that Britain is continuing to watch the situa- ton carefully, but that no action on Britain's part is either called for or contemplated.
 The foreign secretary evaded a question by Godfrey Nicholson on whether Britain had protested di- rectly to the German government. Sir John asked that the question be submitted in writing.

POLI'S

Living up to all the promises made for it that it was the funniest and most human talking picture of the king of the screen Will Rogers, "Handy Andy" the current attraction at Polls and which con- trary to reports will not be shown beyond Tuesday night thrilled Waterburians for the past two days as they have never been thrilled before.
 This master funster deals out hill arity and pathos in every scene and the funniest sequence you have ever seen recorded by a camera is when Rogers attired as Tarzan crashes the Fancy Ball and does an adagio dance with his female part ner.
 Miss this feature and you miss the greatest film of the year.
 Starting Wednesday and contin- uing through until Friday night Polls again does the seemingly im- possible of presenting on the same program two of the outstanding films of the year, these are not the ordinary screen bill-of-fare, one god feature and another that Is below par. each of these features is a first feature in any other the- atre and only through it's connec- tions with the Loew circuit of the- atres in the larger cities of he country is Poli's able to offer these values.
 The first feature on the program is Warner Baxter in "Granl Can ary' and assisting this favorite will be found such names as Madge Evans, Roger Imhoff and other arr lists of like caliber. Here Is the tale of wasted love two people who through circumstances are thrown together to suffer and be with each other and no seeming chance of them getting together, until one of the most startling climaxes of the screen finally unites them.

grim evidence of the unhappy augury under which the new gov ernment started its task.
 Wanted the Prince
 A Heimwehr spokesman said that the state of alarm was caused by the demand of 15,00O men of the Scfutzcorp organization that Starhemberg be named chancellor. They announced they would not leave Vienna unless he headed the government. Starhemberg himself left the cabinet meeting and pleaded with them to go home. Some left early today.
 The Heimwehr, chief of the semi military forces supporting the government, was known to be dis satisfied because Starhemberg was not named chancellor, and it seemed certain that dissention would rise.
 It was believed, too, that as the result of the cabinet changes the Heimwehr would play more lm- portant role. The Heimwehr men were expected to demand a thor ough cleaning out of Nazis, and hangings when the military courts start work late today or tomorrow. The first test of he governments srength will come with the nrst hangings, for the Nazis are likely to be maddened into new revolt.
 Nazis Lost Thus Far
 Over the weekend there was almost no fighting. The govern- ment, for the present, had defeat ed the Nazis. But the victory was indecisive, and served more to show the Nazis' strength than the governments.
 A careful compilation of casual ties in the Nazi revolt, made up from private and official estimates. indicated that between 200 and 25O had been killed and more than 1000 wounded. Of these the gov ernment lost IS killed and 165 wounded.
 Beaten for the moment, the Nazis resumed their terroristic campaign. The electric power house and police station at Lusteau, on the Swiss frontier were damaged by a bomb. A Nazi was killed in a fighct near Styr.

Tavern Owners Plan
 Huge Mass Meeting
Liberalization of Rules on Music to Be Discussed;
 Open to All Tavern Operators

With participation in this falls political campaign as the main rubiect of discussion, a mass meet ing of all tavern owners in the city will be held at Moose hall tomor- row afternoon at 2 o'clock. Though sponsored by the Waterbury local of the Retail Beer, Wine and Liquor Merchants association of Connecticut, the meeting is open to all tavern operators in the city.
 Although local taverns set the keynote fo rthe state association in promising to abide by the recently Promulgated new regulations Of the state liquor commission, 1t Is expected that one of the floor dis cussions will center about means of liberalizing the new rules against music, entertainment and dancing in tavernS. Held by taV-

ernmen as unfair to them and un- duly partial to restaurants and grills, the regulations went into effect early this month.
 Alleged partiality shown to res- taurants in this and other phases of liquor legislation and enfordce. ment will undoubtedly be one of the arguments advanced by the To- cal branch and by the entire state association in asking for public support this fall. It seems at preS- ent that the tavernmen, either off, cially or unofficially, will endorse candidates supposedly favorable to their cause for every state office in the coming elections.
 Tomorrow's mass meeting will be in chargeof President John P. Delaney of the local branch of the association.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
EXIT HOLE

No further applications for loans are to be re-
ceiyed by the Home Owners Loan Corporation,
which has extended succor to some 65O,OOO nome
owners John H. Fahey, chairman of the organlza-
ton. has announced While the statement says
only until further notice." the indications are that
it foreshadows the end of the Hole, for the rea-
sons given are that the demand for such loans has
largely fallen away and that the ordinary agencies
for home financing such as savings banks, build
ING and loan associations and insurance companies
are now in position to take care OF all worthy
borrowers.
From general indications this decision seems 10
he well taken though it comes sooner than eX-
pected 1t fits i'm we'll with a reputed trend to the
right on the part of the administration, tending 20
encourage every possible resumption of private
financing in place of government credit. 1t Is TO
be remembered that the Hole was intended only
as an emergency organization to act as an inter-
medary in refinancing loans between borrowers
who were in distress and lenders who were faced
with loss.
It's eventual dissolution should bring into greater
prominence the permanent institution which brlet-
" preceded it and which now holds promise OF
bringing both greater uidity and greater stability
contradictory though they sound-into the hous-
ing credit field This is the Federal Home Loan
Bank System, headed by Mr.. Fahey and the same
board which heads the Hole. These banks, as
sort of federal reserve system for savings banks
and building and loan associations, can do much
to make possible the actual liquidation of Hole.
That liquidation, of course, will be matter of
many years, even if loans end with applications
now on file. For while, as Mr. Fahey says, 90 per
cent of the bonds of the corporation have gone
into the hands of the original lenders in exchange
for their mortgages, it is now the responsibility of
the government through the Hole to make the
collections to pay those bonds. There has been
some talk that many benefciares of these loans
do not expect to pay them off. But laXty in this
respect should not and cannot be permitted, for
these borrowers owe a debt of gratitude well
as of money to the government for having helped
them save their homes AMI to fail on this obliga-
ton would be to weaken seriously the case for
public assistance to home owners in any future

THE TOWNSEND PLAN

We sincerely hope that folks past 60 will not
set their hopes too high on the Townsend plan for
old age pensions of 5000 a month, lest they be
doomed to bitter disappointment.
1t all looks very nice on paper, or when set forth
by an unthnking orator; but it just won't work.
1t is estimated there are about 100000 persons
in the United States who would be eligible under
the Townsend plan. That means it would cost the
government twenty-four billion dollars year. A
tax to raise such sum this, especially if it
were in the form of sales tax, proposed, would
bankrupt the whole country
True, the government is spending billions CT
dollars in its recovery drive, but only as a tenn
pOrary emergency measure, not as a permanent
policy. Uncle Sam occasionally can play the part
of guardian angel, but he can't be Santa Claus
for all time
Doubtless in time the government will adopt
some workable plan not only for old age pensions,
but also for unemployment insurance We GER
any hope so. But there is not the slightest pros
pect of enactment of the Townsend BILL matter
how many signatures are attached to petitions by
hopeful, trusting souls.
Our advice to old folks is not to start worrying
yet how they are going to spend their 5000 a

AS far as could be learned here

One suggestion frequently made
since Nye's committee began It's

eminent should take over the
munitions industry. The DuPonts
opposed that suggestion, arguing
as follows:
"Jt is estimated that in a ma
ior emergency the government
arsenals would be able to furnish
only about five per cent OF the
necessary ordnance. The expan-
sion of arsenals to 2 times their
present capacity. in addition to
the multiplication of facilities for
all other types of munitions,
would be a colossal undertaking.
Cooperation between government
and industry for the defense of
our country should, in our opln-
ion be continued.
eve subscribe to the view that
excess war profits should be elm
mated. The popular demand is
sound and Just, that in such a
crisis as a major war the entire
CAPITAL and productive resources
of our country should be sub
iected to the national need with
out extraordinary compensation.
We recommend, therefore, that
thorough and detailed study
of the problem be made by such
agency as the congress may de-
termine with the view of devel-
oping a practical and effective
plan of industrial mobilization
for the national defense without
excess profits to corporation or
individual.

True, E. B. ran Republican ticket; but he
