misleading advertising and benefit
the buying public at large. He
urged united support of the code
by all those connected with retail
automobile selling.
He described the operation of
the codes selling clause as fol-
lows:
Protection for Customer
Cali prices of new and used
cars will be brought to their true
selling value. The customer will
not need to shop and take chances
and sell his used car to the best
advantage. He can read an ad,
talk to a salesman and buy with
confidence. Misleading advertis-
ing is barred. New cars of OBJ
solete series have been advertised
as new models, discounted and
cleaned out. Used cars Of 80
have been advertised as 81 for
bait, then traded out at what look
ed like a good deal but in reality
the customer paid more than he
should for the car as it was.
These practices are impossible I'M
der the cole. The method of
compiling the used car market,
as represented by the official
guide, is SO fair to all concerned
that we should tell the world about
it,

Student league, a communistic or
ganization. However, 1t has been
learned from fairly authentic
sources, that circle of high school
students is being quietly arranged
for and will be openly announced
in a short time.
Want More Members
The Student League in this coun-
try has devoted most of it's time
towards organizing certain college
men and women under its banner
who have leanings towards and
are in sympathy with the commun-
istic ideas of government. The la
test move on the part of the ma
tional organization has been to set
up o high school division" and it
is understood that certain Water
burg high school pupils have al
ready been approached on the sub
ject.

said superintendent Condor today
when-talked with. "Of course If
certain pupils are interested in such
a movement they would move
quietly and it would not come to
my attention without reports from
the principals of the schools in
which they study" Mr. Condor
stated that he would be pleased
to take the matter up at the next
meeting of school principals, the
date for which has not yet been de-
cided upon.

had not heard any rumblings of the
communistic sort among the stu
dents of his institution. However.
he said, when the various depart
mental teachers hold their next
group meetings he intends to in
quire il they have heard anything
from the student body, itself.
This afternoon the members of
the faculty of Wildly high school
will meet. Principal Joseph p. Ken
nedy stated this morning that he
had heard no information concern
ing the signing up of Wildly stu
dents with such an organiZatio
However, he promised to question
the faculty members this afternoon
about the matter. They, he pointed
out, are directly in touch with the
student body and would know
about such matter If such a
movement is afoot.
According to the reports, the aim
is to capture the minds of the
youth of the country in the inter-
est of communism. Older minds
are stable and the adolescent mind
must be enrolled. The establish-
ment of powerful, functioning.
revolutionary high school organi-
cation is what is desired by the ma
tional leaders, hence the establish
ment of the high, school section of
the National Student league.
"Red" Literature Plentiful
Much literature of commupistic
nature has been in circulation IN
Waterbury recently, especially ap-
pealing to the students. Reports
are to the effect that many high
school students are being enrolled
in the organization which will be-
come a public body when founda-
ton steps have been completed.
The local police have been in.
formed that a communistic school
has been established in Waterbury
and that youngsters ranging in ages

The Purpose and Effect of the Proposed
Amendment
The purpose and effect of this amend
n?ent is to authorize the legislature to
provide for exchanging any of the public
lands of the state for lands of the Uni
ted States and land privately owned, such
exchanges to be made with the approval
of commission consisting OF the COVER
nor, the attorney general and the state
auditor. Such exchanges of land can
stitution does not permit the legislature
to authorize the sale of school lanes
state swamp lands and state Internal i'm
provement lands except by public SALE
Ono inpediate purpose In granting such
authority is to make it possible for the
state to acquire compact areas of land
far forestry and other conservation pur.
poses by exchanging land outside of such
conservation areas for lands OF the Uni
ted States and privately owned lands
within such areas.
The amendment requires that all min
erai rights, water rights and water
power rights in lambs so transferred by
the state shall be reserved. The land 50
acquired will become subject to the same

After reading about the strik-
ers in Toledo throwing bricks.
it looks as though labor, in
their effort to reach an agree
ment, is leaving no stone url-
turned.
Or, maybe the excitement
was caused by a bunch of
Communists trying to paint
the town Red.
When strikes start, it's a sure
sign of prosperity. The only
labor troubles most factories
had, during the depression, was
trying to keep the vice preSi-
dents busy.
Most trouble is caused by
misunderstanding. One labOrer
didn't know he'd gotten q raise
until three months later, when
his wife dropped his pay en-
velOpe and saw how much was
in it.
Jack Oakie says that the
only way to settle the labor
problem, is to put all the men
on one island, and all the
women on the ether. They'd
soon be busy building boats.
So Remember:
A Communist is . guy who

provided you divide your beer
