Injuries Cause Death

Injuries received in a fall from a horse two or three years ago are believed to have caused the death yesterday afternoon at o'clock in Waterbury hospital of Patrick Poynton, Jr., SS, son of MT and Mrs Patrick Poynton of 233 Rubber avenue. MT Poynton received a brain concussion and internal in- juries when riding hurdling horse owned by the late Raymond An drew in Washington, Conn.

 MT Poynton had lived in Nauga- tuck all of his life with the excep- tion of about five years spent in Washington, Conn. He is survived by his parents, three brothers, Elias, Michael and Thomas, all of Naugatuck, and six sisters. Miss Helen Poynton, Miss Catherine Poynton, Mrs Bessie Phelan and Mrs Margaret Wester, all of Nau- gatuck, and Mrs Agnes Collins and Mrs Alice Darley, both, of Water bury.
 The funeral will be held to-mor- row morning at 9:30 at the home of his parents, 233 Rubber avenue, and at 10 o'clock at St Francis church. Burial will be in St James, cemetery.

Berlin, (UP)-EIitler's program has brought him more power than any modern ruler and more than. most rulers of histoky. < 1 Feeling as youth economic and social inequality, and sharing Ger many's defeat-psychosis after the World war, Hitler swore that If there were two things he would accomplish in his career, they were to give the underdog chance and to restore to the Germans their national pride and honor.
 I Two Sources of Strength
 The movement which he found- ed, and for which he fought for 1S years, draws strength from Ma tionalism on its political side and from Socialism on its economic.
 Parliamentary Democracy and liberalism are, Hitler believes, re- sponsible for Germany's. postwar misfortunes. To him, the only solution in the Fuehrerprinzip (Principle of Leadership under which one man has taken over the entire authority from parties and legislative bodies.
 Complementary to the Fuehrer- prinzip is the conception of an Authoritative State wherein for mer political groups wrangling for power through parliamentary ma jority, were eliminated and where the Nationalist Socialist movement alone becomes merged with the state.
 Hitler's state is also Totalitarian, subjecting all public units like schools, universities, press, radio, theaters, church, to the aims and forms of National Socialism itself. Racial Campaign
 Side by side with and actually part of the struggle to create a unified Reich, is the Racial cam paign. This aims to evolve pure Germanic People (Volk), freed in time of cripples, degenerates, idiots through the isterilizatoin program, and free all intellectual, Cultural, and financial fields.
 The National Socialist racial theory sees The People as the su- preme factor. In time,. 1t is hoped, the sphere of National Socialist in- fluence and power shall be extend
 ed to all German-speaking peo- ples Switzerland, Czechoslovakia
 Austria, Western Poland, Lithuania
 and possibly even parts of Bel
 gium, Holland and Denmark. l On the economic (socialist) sije
 of the program, Hitler's drive has been for the little man. agaius;

 Two things are important in the National Socialist economic scheme: unemployment and the stimulation of Autarchy, that is, the making of Germany independ- ent of foreign raw-materials. Each of thsee strikes, a strong note of "nationhood," as with all things in Germany to-day.

ZEBRA Fxpenses Reported

thus Tar nave been Slb,IZ5.5o, ac- cording to a report made out yes- terday aftrenoon by Borough Clerk Charles Daly. These are for such things as labor, trucks, materials, engineering, etc. Of this amount, $12,735.S2 has been for EZRA ex- penditures out of the street depart ment appropriation for the seveL months of the fiscal year, and $3,- $989.73 has been spent from the school department appropriation.
 There was at the end of October an unexpended balance of $199,- 77S.19 in the budget for the re- maining five months, the report shows. Last year at the same time there was a balance of 147, ,113.60 but the budget last year amounted to $469, ,662.65. This year it is about $20,000 larger, totaling $490,720.T.
 Last year at October 31 total of $322,545.05 had been spent. This year, $290.942.52 has been spent.
 However at the present rate of spending the budget will be over spent if the same average per month is expended during the re- maining five months of the fiscal year as has been spent in the last seven months. An average of $41,- 563.14 has been spent during the past seven months.
 If this average is spent during the next five months the budget will be overspent by $S,037.51. Of course this would virtually mean that the administration kept within the budget for no provision was made for EZRA expenditures when the budget was made out before the present administration assumed office.

Don't Want Long Cases

Don't Want Long Cases
 White collar workers under the EZRA are hoping there will be no long court cases any more. We'd nesday during the three hour trial while Prosecuting Attorney Martin Caine and Atty. Henry Freeman disputed lengthily many points, the white collar employees who work in the courtroom waited patiently for the session to end so that they might start work. All the workers were on hand prompelty at 9 a. m. but because of the noise of the trial an dthe many comments from the audience which was on hand, they were not able to work during the morning.
 But they were summoned to work from to g in the evening because no work was accomplished in the morning. Apparently the fact it was not the fault of the employees they were not able to work, and the fact they were on hand to work and their time was being used up did not count.
