 Satti Attack Alcorn
G. o. P. Gubernatoria Nominee Played for Charges Against Cross at Itaan-A American Democratic Rally

Hugh M. Alcorn, republican nomines for governor has either sold out to the Roraback machine or he is ambitious for public office. declared Dr. c. John Satti. demo- cratic candidate for secretary of state, speaking last night at large gathering of Italian-American dem- ocrats in Winsted., Doris Jacaruso, vice-president of the local Italian Women's Democratic club attend ed.
 MT. Alcorn has made great reputation for himself as a pros- ecutor in Hartford County" said Dr. Satti. ''and now he is a can- didate for governor on the republi- can ticket. He has made a reputa- ton for himself as honest and sin cere. Yet he has the nerve to come out and charge Governor Cross with responsibility~for the inequal- ities of the states liquor law, as well as the defeat of the democrat ic program for old age pensions and other forms of social legisla- tion.
 "The answer to his actions in this campaign is that he is either ambitious for public office or he has sold out to the Roraback ma chine."
 pr. satti devoted a large por- tion of his address to the part played by the Italians of this state in the political picture. He charged the republican party broke faith with the Italians, that former Sec- retary of State Francis Palotti was shelved when he became too pop ular.
 Going back on his attack on AL corn the New London doctor said the Italian people of this state want to know why it is that Alcorn prosecuted only Italians in the so- called Hartford elections scandals.
 There are many people in this state wondering why I, a profess sional man. am going about seeking public office. The answer to that is plain. When I see on all sides of me, when I walk into the homes Of my patients, when I see suffer- ing and want and privation stalk ing the streets of our cities, feel that am not properly serving the public to whom I have dedecated my life work if did not try to go out and do something to help re- iieve this poverty. this suffering, this privation.
 Dr. Satti denied that President Roosevelt, the national adminis- tration or the democratic organ. ization in this state is trying to build up Q political machine with relief funds.
 "On the contrary the republicans are trying to build up their own political machine the relief funds sent to them by the democratic administration. The administration Of relief in this state is in tha
