We Mark Time

The appointment of David Wilson of
 Hartford to the staff of the Attorney Gen.
 eral of the United States, Homer s. Cum
 mings, will not make any appreciable dlt-
 ference in the campaign plans of the
 democratic party of Connecticut. Still 1t
 is best to be prepared for any eventuallty,
 so we recommend tonight that leaders
 give heed to the need of placing in charge
 of party affairs, in the event of MT Will
 sons resignation as chairman of the state
 central committee, a man sufficiently ac-
 quainted with them to insure continu-
 ation of any plans previously discussed. It is no open secret that Waterbury ex- poets the advancement of J. Francis
 Smith of this city to the chairmanship He
 is at present the secretary of the state central committee. He is believed to have whatever backing is required to assure !. his appointment in the event of any sud den action upon the part of Attorney Will son. As yet MT Wilson has not made known his plans. No doubt he awaits the return of Attorney General Cummings from his vacation trip to Hawaii.
 Whether or not the duties of the De- partment of Justice will require his ser vices in Washington late this month re- main to be seen. But if they do it will . C6TCdlIly Uc CIC WlSS lllONC 1Ol ]AIIOt A~S Wilson to tender his resignation, so that qualified person may assume the re- sponsibility of conducting the affairs of the party throughout the weeks prior to the state convention and then during the short space of time that elapses before ! the November election.
 We have wondered if it would not be wiser to have Chairman Wilson retain his office until after November rather than change between the nominating and elect ing date. Of course should the resigna- tion come now or before the first of Sep tember successor to the office, such as MT Smith would be, could take over the duties without any embarrassment or without hindering the plans now in op- eration and those contemplated. We . rather incline to this latter plan, because we realize full we'll that the Waterbury man is we'll aware of the possibilities fac. ing the democrats this fall and would . make the most of them.

A Thought for Today
Won Hindenburg

It will long be a moot question whether the Hindenburg of 1914 and the World War was more outstanding figure than the grizzled old man who became pres- dent of the new Germany in 1925. Ma tions have always been partial to their military heroes. There are many par allels to the Hindenburg career right here in the United States. Washington was a soldier before he became states man and national leader.
 Andrew Jackson was the hero of the War of 1872; later became president, and a great one, too. The Civil War gave us Ulysses s. Grant and the Spanish-Ameri- can War, Teddy" Roosevelt. The World War almost gave us General Pershing We bring out these facts not so much to be- cloud any claim to fame Paul Won Hin denburg possessed, but only to show that military genius is often a stepping stone to political fame
 Hindenburg. the president and linden burg the great military leader seem diff ferent characters to us. As the idol of the hour Hindenburg was figure of great dimensions. As president he seemed a kindly old man in whom the populace placed great confidence because at one time he had saved the nation from the onrush of Russian armies. He may have been possessed of great qualities as a statesman, but over and above them he was figure to whom one naturally turned for protection. Even the Nazi leaders of recent day seemed to feel his influence and to entertain the highest re- gard for it.
 We doubt if his death will bring about any startling changes in the present Ger man regime other than an increase in the power of Hitler. It also may spell the end of any and all thoughts of returning monarchy in Prussia. Despite his popu- lar election and reelection Hindenburg was definitely the last link between the monarchia Germany of the past and the Hitlersm of the present.

Press Comment
TRAVELLING PRESIDENTS Christian Science Monitor)

Peripatetic presidents and pres
 idents-elect seem to be setting new political styles. Since some of the trail blazers are still on the wing, it Is too, early to form settled con clusions about the effects of their journeyings.
 At the moment there are three itinefant statesmen. President
 Roosevelt. after visiting three for eign nations, Haiti, Colpaibia and Panama, is in Hawaii. From his
 contacts with the chief executives of the Caribbean nations, visited, positive good has already come. Crossing his path is pr. Alfonso Lopez, the President-elect of Co., lomb bia, elected, curiously enough, when he was i'll Brazil on Q mission connected with the settlement of the Leticiu dispute. Dr. Lopez re- gently concluded visit to Wash- ington, whence he departed for Mexico and the other Central American republics on his way to his native land.
 President-elect Dr. Jose M. Ve- lascq Ibafra of Ecuador. first went north to Colombia and then turned
 south to visit Peru and Chile, where he was recently received
 and entertained by President Ales- sandri. He soon expects to fly to Argentina in continuation of his tour. pr. Velasco Ibarra, in an ad- dress in Chile, indicated that one of his purposes was the develop ment of a more unified Latin America. That his hopes are not altogether vain is justified by the happy results of the visit of Presi- dent Justo of Argentina to Brazil last fall and by the rapproche. ment between these tradltionally
 hostile nations.
 Mir. Hoover, when he made his
 pre-inaugural tour of Latin Amer
 lea in 1928, may have given the
 movement an impetus. The results
 in the United States, for the time
 being, at least, were startling. Stu
 dents fiocked to hitherto unattend-
 ed courses on Latin America;
 newspapers appointed correspond
 ents in important Latin-American
 capitals; and American foreign policy with respect to Latin Amer-
 lea began to change. If the Latin- American nations reap similar re-
 suits from the meanderings ot their chief statesmen, the practice
 may become intrenched in inter- national relations.

Washington, Aug 3.-The presidents trip to the Bonne- vile Dam to-day and to the site of the Grand Coulee Dam to- morrow will mean to most peo- pie chiefly a spectacular, color full trip through the magnificent mountains of the great north west.
 But to the big power com- panies 1t means the end of the Utopian dreams harborcd back in the days when Sam Insull could float stock issues over- night.
 Their dreams at that time sources of the country. And just were for giant super-power sys- tems based upon the natural re- sources of the country. And just before the crash of the Cool idge Bull Market these dreams seemed on the verge of fulfill ment. Huge holding companies built around Niagara and Hud- . son, the United Corporation, and Commonwealth and South ern were preparing to develop super-power.
 Only five years have passed since then, but Roosevelt's trip to-day shows how drastically the picture has changed.
 THE POWER BEHIND
 Now the finest power sites are in the hands of the government, are being developed with govern ment money for distribution, in many cases, through government agencies. They will function in a manner similar to the Tennes- see Valley.
 The Bonneville Dam on the Co., lumbia river near Portland, will create reservoir extending up- stream for A miles It will pro- .duce not only power but improve navigation.
 At Grand Coulee, also on the Columbia river but in the state of Washington, Roosevelt will witness the beginning of pro- ject which will have the larg- est power capacity in the world. It ranks next to Boulder Dam in the size of the dam, but is great CT in the output of power.
 It took years of debate to se- cure Congressional approval to build Boulder Dam. Passage of the bill was considered a his toric achievement. It took even longer to secure Congressional approval for the development of Muscle Shoals.
 But these New Deal projects. some of them just as Zig, were uhapprOved through the Pub lie Works Administration, with

Shrine To Economy


 It is said that the former home of Calvin Coolidge at 21 Massasoit street ill Northampton is of more interest to tour- ists than the estate he bought after his retirement from the presidency. The lat ter, known as The Beeches, IS large, single house with fine lawns, gardens and trees about it. The former is one side of a plain, two-family house. on the corner of busy street. The house is neither beautiful in itself nor set off with gardens or trees.
 Why does the public choose the humber house to look at? Probably because it typifes the man himself better, than the latter home. The two-family house was not merely unpretentious. It was almost a stage-setting for the man who symbol ized economy to whole nation in a spendthrift era.
 There is talk of buying the Massasoit street house and maintaining it as shrine for posterity. The idea may appeal to many persons. To others it will seem a mistaken plan. The Coolidge birthplace in Vermont would be better for that pur- pose. The half-house in Northampton is worth preserving only for the material it would furnish future student of the gen. eral folly of the boom years and the psy- chology of the man who was president of the United States just before the crash.

than foreign. Where there is definite enmity across national borders, it is di- rected against parties and individuals on the other side, not against the other cout- tries as units.
 "They seem to realize that they and their neighbors are all in the same boat" MT Davis is quoted as saying in effect, land that their troubles are economic, not political or racial" The governments, being aware of this feeling, knowing that their people do not want war and might revolt if war were started, are careful not to start anything. Hitler is quoted as a good example He may talk big, but off.

 "Who is the artist?" friend asked.
 Flushing, Wallace replied: "To tell you the truth really don't know. Some chap who has al- ready done five and says he has eight more to go. It seems to be the fashion these days" NAVAL OPERATIONS
 Uncle Sam's sea fighting force is being subjected to quiet but searching analysis.
 The study is being made by the the Office of Naval Operations, the G. H. o. of the service, and is based on experience of the fleet in it's recent Pacific-Atlan- tic cruise.
 Three major deficiencies have been recorded as result of the great training tour:
 1. Marked inadequacy of personnel.
 ?. Insufficient sea drill. ..
 3. Over-development of in- ter-ship competition.
 On the first two deficiencies naval authorities plan to ask the next congress for relief. Money and authority will be sought to increase the fighting force, and to allow more sea cruising and training.
 The third complaint has al- ready been attacked. Regula- tions drastically modifying cut throa. gunnery and engineering competition betwene ships have been put into effect, and others will be issued.
 OBSOLETE
 The lack of personnel and sui ficient sea drill, navy men say is serious.
 Practically all the ships, they declare, are undernianned, some of them so badly that they would bc unable to maintain bat tie speeds for any length of time, or to man all their grhs.
