2. Junking the present sys- tenn of separate bank examina- tions by the comptroller's bu- reau, the REC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the Federal Deposit Insurance corporation, and consolidating them i'm one administrative unit.
 3. Seeking legislation to cre- ate this unit by combining the cOmptrOller's office with the FIDC, the new agency to be a part of the treasury.
 As long as O'Connor remained under the treasury roof it was impossible to proceed with these plans, as that would have neces- sitated including him in the re. organization.
 This neither Morgenthau nor the .president-who. fully. ap-, proves the program-wanted to do.
 In inner administration coun- cils, O'Connor's private views re- garding New Deal money poli- cies have been under suspicion for some time.
 Removing the Californian was not, however, as simple as dis carding ex-Budget Director Lewis Douglas.
 Behind "Jafty" s.ood Senator William Gibbs McAdoo, who put him in the treasury in the early days of the regime. The axe could not be used. Subtler means had to be found.
 The Federal Reserve agency was tine result.
 But here another difficulty arose. Some of the members of the Federal Reserve Board, which makes the appointment, had their own ideas about whom to appoint.
 On the first vote the board split three and three, with Mor- genthau voting affirmatively.

 Wyoming's husky Senator Robert D. Carey is republican boss of his state, but he is not the political ruler of his family Carey's independent minded mother is warmly supporting Wyoming's Democratic Senator Joseph c.

 Waterbury, Conn.
 It was amusing to have MT AL corn tell us on his visit to Water- town how wrought up" he was over Governor Cross's failure to re- appoint s. Mclean Buckingham Agriculture Commissioner. It was almost as funny as Rep. Hunger lords requesting the voters to take off their coats and vests too, and
 work for the success of the repub- lican party. He could have added

 he sheds any more crocodile tears.

 pretty much family affair, for
 years. They are all related and the
 town hall is closed corporation if you do not happen to be an Att

 While MT Alcorn cussed the gov- eFnOr aD0ut Bucklngham, he might
 have given g little praise for re-
 taining two state republican ap- pointees. Lowe and McCleary. Just a little oversight.
 Let's look at the other side of
 the picture. The local republicans
 have driven Michael E. Brahen out
 of office, probably the best select
 man Watertown has ever had, a
 man who has been on the job for the past twenty-seven years, an ex- pert at road work. He was replaced by a novice who spends a third of
 his time in the town hall. while our First Selectman Buckingham is in

 There has always been plenty of work for three selectmen; there is plenty today.

Editor. Waterbury, Democrat:

Editors Waterbury Democrat:
 The strike situation involving the A & F chain stores in Cleveland which threatens to spread through out Ohio and into other states fur nishes food for thought. The de. precision is reaching the stage where anything is liable to hap pen. The American people as a whole are a most patient people, but the dominance of big business Is slowly but surely bringing about g revolution which is hoped will be a bloodless one.

Selected Poem

CYCLE (Marion Brownell in The Christian Science Monitor) The old white town Slumbers beneath elms, Raising Bulfinch spire over the green, Has given as hostage It's youth to the cities And the ranks of the elders Are thinner each spring. But the town keeps its counsel Behind shutters and fanlights, Secure in the knowledge That some will return; Drawn back by heritage, Held by charm. Old houses will waken, Child voices will rise On chimney smoke.

Never knew they had wild horses in Florida, but recent news dispatches in- form us of the fact. They're so numerous now that relief workers are going to cor ral them, tame them, and then put them to farm work where farmers can't pur. chase new stock. Now that land isn't valuable in Florida the horses should be able to find plenty of pasture land in be- tween subdivisions.

Convenient Scare"

How much do the "alien agitators" have to do with our industrial disturbances? :? Precious little, as matter of fact = ac- cording to figures unearthed in Washing ton recently by Rodney Butcher. Rhode Island police, for instance, rounded up 55 "alien agitators" after bloodshed in the last textile strike. Of these 55, AS proved their citizenship, four claimed naturaliza- tion, and only three turned out to be aliens i; and no evidence has been produced to show these three deportable.
 It was the same in San Francisco. In the famous fred raids" after the general strike, 373 men were rounded up. Only 1O1 were non-citizens, only IA of these were subject to deportation on any con- ceivable grounds, and only one was shown to have advocated violence or to have be- longed to an organization favoring vio- lence This is pretty good evidence that the fred scare' in connection with strikes is just scare, and nothing more.

We were quite interested in the ramarks of several republican speakers at a rally in Bridgeport recently. State Treasurer J. William Hope, who begets considerable praise from both democrats and republi- cans in Fairfield county asked what Gov ernor Cross has done to merit reelection. That surely is not the measure of MT Hopes ability, we hope. A rather inane query, we'd call it. And as for Finton Kelly, representative candidate, he says, eff man gets up in the morning and wants drink, he has to buy the whole bottle. This awful liquor law is ruining men. I've seen it". What about the women, MT Kelly?

We like this idea of Yale University to take students in the junior and senior classes down to Washington for weeks closeup study of the workings of our government. It's the practical way to ap- proach a subject that must be taught in these days. The young men to make the trip will be selected from the classes studying international relations and gov- ernment. We can think of no better way to teach such subjects than to do so right at the fountainhead. It's all right to re- fer students to books and to tax their memories with certain facts, but the actual contact will offer far better pie ture than any classroom lecture. More colleges might expand on this idea by utilizing the sources of local government at hand for reference work.
