The Nome nugget., 1934-03-10

WASHINGTON, March B. The President said a year ago today that the nation was suffering and shrinking under econom.c pressur- ss so intolerable that a collapse was at hand. We arrived at the day to make our choice and we made that cho.ce. The American people responded to the call for action with eager enlistment in the struggle against ruthless. self seeking. reckless greed and eeon- otnic anarchy. We undertook, by lawful constitutional processes to reorganize the dis.ntegration system of production exchange for the purpose of reorganization; not only to bring back prosperity. It is far deeper than that. Reorgan- ization must be permanent for all. We live in the hope that never again will we have the soc 3al condition which permitted vast sections of our population to ex- ist in the un-American way which permitted maldistribution of wealth and power. Let us consoi- iiate our gains with the resolve that consolidation be for con tinued progress. especially for the greater happiness and. well-being of the American people.

as a continued means of providing enl- ployment. We must work toward more permanent stabiization of industrial condi- tions. Into the program of industrial self government must be written public supervision and participation, to prevent abuses of economic power, without abus- ing political power"
 Here, surely, is program large enough to satisfy the most ambitious. And when you stop to think about it, you discover that each item offers plenty of chances to make serious mistakes. Those simple words, decide on the extent of govern ment intervention" for instance simply mean that MT Richberg and his men must make up their minds on policy that could range anywhere from complete individual ism to a regimentation as thorough as anything seen in Italy or Russia. Laying out permanent public works program offers, on one side, the chance to waste vast sums annually to small purpose, and on the other the chance to extend pater- nalism beyond anything previously dreamed of.
 Stabilizing industrial conditions, and, extending public supervision of industrial self-government, could mean state capi- talism state socialism, or simply the growth of a vast, cumbersome, and op- pressive bureaucracy. In other words, this job of setting program carries with it great many chances to do the wrong thing. Yet it is job that cannot be side stepped any longer.
 great many things have happened in Washington in the last year. Some have been almost revolutionary in their impli- cations. It is good to see that they are all to be tied together into comprehensive and definite program. Thus, eventually, when the administration goes to the voters, the country's task of making yes-or-no decision will be a lot simpler.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-12
Don't You Love It!

We certainly should have liked to have heard State Senator John F. Lynch of West Haven in his fiery and passionate outburst against Governor Cross at Strat- ford Monday night It must have warmed republican hearts to read the next morn ing of the unmerciful flaying that their legislator gave the democratic governor of the state Some democrats may have shivered at the thoughts of what havoc such remarks must produce in the minds of the easily influenced voters.
 There's an old saying about always con- sidering the source of the remark. It might be well to do so in this particular instance While we have no personal quarrel with Senator Lynch and regard him as an exemplary member of our leg islature, even if he did let his home town in for something few years back when gambling at Savin Rock was innocently legalized by rider to a bill, we don't think that the mere fact that he fought against the present liquor control act should now rebound to his credit as he plainly intends it to do.
 He talked at great length about "degra dations" caused by the present liquor law. He extolled the laws that prevailed here prior to prohibition. In short Senator Lynch would have us hand over to our county commissioners the only powers that were left to them in recent years, but which unfortunately CD prohibition de- prived them of. If there is one thing against which the citizens of the state will fight it is return to our former liquor laws, administered as they were by county officials.
 Conditions today may not be of the best. There are admitted faults with the control act, even by those of us who praised it in the beginning. Time always shows up the weak spots in any creation of man. There are improvements to be made We hope they will be taken care of next year. Inher- ently, though, the Jaw is all right It merely needs bit of tinkering. Senator Lynch is too delightfully."- vehement in his charges about the governors liquor law. Why pick on the governor, Senator?
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-12
Wise Heads Prevail

What republicans were fondly hoping would develop into Donegal Fair yester- day afternoon in New Haven turned out to be one of the most peaceful sessions the democratic state central committee has held in recent years. Vanished into thin air were the shouts of new and "old guard' Gone were the threats to upset the party unless certain concessions were granted here and there. Instead mild calm settled on the assemblage which was not even broken by the remarks of the several distinguished speakers.
 Although final decision on such things as the choice of a keynoter, convention site, and exact date were not made there were plenty of differences drawn following the session. The concensus seemed to be that Senator Augustine Lonergan would be the speaker and that once more demo- crats would seek to woo Lady Luck at Eastern Point, Groton. She proved agree. able on the last two times the democrats went there, so it is safe to say today that Eastern Point looms as much more prob- able as the convention site than either New Haven or Hartford.
 Competent and representative commit tees are going to make final arrange ments for the state convention and the Gl6CClOIlS IO lOllOW fAo we llcNC llletlllIlAAASN right along there is no time to be lost. Republicans have been active this year and are sparing no efforts to regain the state. It is no secret that they are gambling all on the returns of 1884 To lose Connecti- cut as they have in the last four years would probably be all that is needed to bring about the complete disruption of the party in the state just as the Roosevelt victory of 1882 did that in the nation.
 Democrats stand an admirable chance of improving their position. They should realize that despite g.o.p. efforts to date little or no impression has been made on the mass of voters. That is due to the fact that impressions are more apt to be made by the majority party. Fortunately our impressions for the most part have been good ones. We are not yet strictly on the defensive. An active campaign based on the fact that republican legislators have displayed dilatory tactics in the face of democratic rule could go long ways this fall Factionalism has no place now.
