Our City Is Honored

Waterbury should feel highly compll-' mented in the high type of democratic candidate it is offering the state and na- tion this fall on the democratic ticket. We refer particularly to the candidates of Mayor Frank Hayes for lieutenant-gover- nor and Attorney Joseph Smith for con- gressman. Published speeches of both of these two gentlemen reveal that both are fully acquainted with the pertinent issues of the day and are competent to discuss, them intelligently and thoroughly.
 At every place in which Mayor Hayes has spoken to date he has been given magnificent ovation. It was noticeable in New Haven last week. It was also seen up in Holland Monday night and in East Hartford Tuesday night. Our chief ex- ecutive is lending himself splendidly to the task at hand and proving as able cam paigner for state honors as he has been for purely civic ones. His remarks have been well-chosen and well calculated to catch the listeners attention.
 The same might be said of Attorney Smith. His first entrance into politics has characterized him as an individual who understands fully the complicated problems that face the nation today. He is a whole-hearted subscriber to the theory that President Roosevelt must be supported through the crisis and that ultimately his policies will prove the sal vation of all of us. It would be fine thing for this nation if all office-seeking candidates were as conscious of what they must discuss in public appearances as have Mayor Hayes and Attorney Smith.
 We make this claim with no intention of sighting any other local man who is seek ing office. It is just that the two men tioned have been prominent in meetings and rallies of the last ten days and no doubt will continue to remain so until No- vember 9th. It is gratifying to see can didates enter into the spirit of an election campaign in this fashion. Too many are content to remain at home and let others run their campaigns and do their own talking. Nothing pleases voter more than chance to weigh the candidate by his own words.

General Johnson issued a new ukase that undertook to establish price differentials between small and large manufacturers and be- tween distributing points.
 But this compromise suited no one. Now 1t has been thrown out in toto.
 The hero of the price fixing retreat is Leon Henderson, youthful chief of the MIRA eco- homie division, ex-officio mem- Der of the new administrative board.
 NOTE: While defeated on -price-fixing the big producers are making a counter-demand of the. MIRA.
 They seek approval of a $2,- 000,000 budget for the tire code authority, which they dominate. The MIRA consumers Advisory board claims the size of the bud- get savors strongly of monopo- listic designs.
 MAIL BAG
 c. C., Bismarck, N. D. -- The occasions on which Senator Lynn J. Frazier of North Dakota goes occasions when Charlie Curtis. as vice president, stayed at home. Lynn does not even possess a dress suit. He has bought a home and believes in living in 1t. When first he came to Washington, he paid $10O a month rent. This was too much. So he gambled on fu- ture reelection and decided to buy home. He is still paying for it on the instalment plan. The house is in Tacoma Park, some distance from the senate, but Lynn is content to let the children take the sedan while he takes the street car to the Capitol. .. There is noth- ing very exciting about the life of Lynn Frazier except the names of his twin daughters, Unie May and Versie Fay, named after Mayville State Normal school and the University of North Dakota. both of which their proud father attended. The Fraziers have noeservants, do not patronize liquor or tobacco stores and have no church affili- ation. Mrs Frazier and the girls do all the house work. Asked if he will be unahppy if elections force him to retire to his farm at Hoople, Frazier says: I'd just as soon go back to farming if you could get a decent price for what you grow. Yes I drive a team myself. and think I'm lucky if I can get a hired man to keep up with me-"

Doctors Must Pay - Except?

Relative to the question of the tagging of doctors cars parked in restricted areas which was raised in letter to this paper by one of Waterbury's leading physicians, Superintendent of Police Joseph Il. Mclean seems to have definitely settled the matter in his statement last evening to the Democrat. The superintendent has prescribed that the doctors must share and share alike with the general public m the matter of parking save only ln the matter of emergencies.
 The decision upon the part of the super intendent is clear-cut other than what Tn the duties of doctor constitutes an actual emergency, and who is the one to decide when an emergency really exists? That's question which we think in many ln- stances will necessitate the combined ef- forts of judge and jury, putting the doc tors to no little amount of inconvenience, right or wrong.
 No doubt the reasons which Superln- tendent Mclean advances for his insist ance upon the enforcement of the parking laws are for the good of the city in general, and he should be upheld for his unflinching stand in the matter. Yet we still think some leeway should be given doctors when visiting the sick, which, more or less, is always an emergency. No doubt that is what the superintendent means to infer, not merely that it must be an actual life or death case.
 As for the matter of changing the ordi- nance, we agree with Superintendent Mclean in not wishing to create any new laws or regulations. It would be estab- fishing precedent to being with, which, for the most part, generally is precari- ous; and furthermore would even lead to abuses. We feel confident that if super intendent Mclean exercises the same good Judgment he has in the past the doctors will have no fault to find with his actions as regards parking. In our estimation he has acted wisely and should have the support of his superiors in his decision, which is for the welfare of everyone.

Late in September. we recalled that President Charles c. McCracken of Con- necticut State College condemned both repeal and the use of tobacco in the same breath. He was talking about personal liberty and said, "Bootlegging continues and published police records show an alarming increase in arrests due to drink, ing. =. The disgusting sight of drunken men and women in the streets and gutters is once more becoming common as it was in the days of the old saloon. j. The use of tobacco has been thought of as harm less, both morally and physically. Yet the regulations against smoking by those en- gagged in strenuous physical activities have indicated lurking suspicion that the physical man will suffer from the use Of nicotine. :. :" In short. Dr McCracken wants peoples lives again regulated by laws. It's worse than the cure.

London Letter

London-(UP)- New York ho- tels may provide more varied ser vice to guests, but London hostel ries are said to be decidly moro solvent.
 The great majority of Manhat- tan hotels do not earn enough at present to pay much more than their taxes, states Lucius M, Boomer, president of the great Waldorf-Astoria.
 Boomer was here recently on a holiday. He found that domestic attentions, such as valeting, are superior here, but complained bit- terly about the poor telephone service in British hotels.
 Telephone Service
 "In the United States, the hotel telephone operator is almost the equivalent of a secretary" Boomer said. When you want to get someone on the telephone, all you and then hang up. The operator WILL EAiS yOu OdCA dS oOOA hS yOdA man is on the line.
 "In an English hotel, after a guest has given his message he probably will hear no more about 1t until he rings the operator again, when he will be told,( oh, got him on the line, but you had hung up."
 The hotel business in the United States still is suffering from the dropping off of domestic travel. stated Boomer. This decline in transient guests, however. has been somewhat offset by the in- creased number of persons who have given up homes or apart ments for year-rOund hotel resi- dence.
 Women Necessary to Hotels
 While the success of the hotel and restaurant business depends 90 per cent on women, 1t is the men who pay the bills, and who are the best guests, said this ex- pert. In connection with their relative generosity in tipping. he Automatically explained that Women are unconscious of the value of money in large sums. but they are very thrifty in small ones" The cost of tipping for hotel service has increased to about Is per cent of the bill, Boomer esti- mated. He disagreed entirely with the system prevailing in some countries of Europe. where 10 per cent is added on to the bill by the cashier to take care of gratuities to the staff. In most places where this was done, the staff came to expect their tips on top of the 10 per cent.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-10-10

Washington, Oct. 10-A stren- uous nter-government battle has been raging behind : the scenes over the question of whether or not Allen w. Dulles shall go to London as disarmament adviser to Ambassador Norman Davis.
 The state department is for him ,aId the navy department against
 Dulles has been, under h avy fire for some time. [ He was criticized for advising on war debts while he was-and still is partner in Sullivan and Crom- well, prominent Wall street law firm. And he was also attacked for lobbying on oil concessions with his former colleagues at the state department. s.
 However, Dulles grandfather, John W. Foster and his uncle. the late Robert Lansing, both were secretaries of state. So the state department has stuck, with him.
 But the navy department has not. It has voiced vigorous oppo- sition to his advising on naval affairs at London.
 BRAVERY
 General Lucius Roy Holbrook is disarmingly frank about his achievements in battle.
 One day, according to his own story. he was shopping in Paris department store. He had been typically American in his purchases. so much so that he merited the attention of the as- sistant manager. And as favor to his American customer. the manager took him over to an- other aisle and introduced him to distinguished visitor. ass
 It was King Peter of Monten- cgro.
 His majesty liked .. General. Holbrook. invited him to call at his apartment. & E.. 9
 Almost immediately after his arrival next day \ King Peter reached into a trunk. fished around. pulled out a decoration, fastened it on his guest, Then as an afterthought. he asked:
 What did you say your rank was?" s,
 "Brigadier general"
 Here. give mc that back again. That isn't good enough for you" sH
 So his majesty went back to the trunk, pulled out another decoration. It was the "Silver Medal for Bravery and Cross of
