PRODUCTION

So much has been said and writ
ten these last couple of years about
"overproduction" that many peo-
pie have the idea that there was a
great surplus of everything people
consume. That was true, however,
of only a very few commodities,
and those mainly raw materials pro-
duced everywhere in the world,
such as wheat and a few other agri-
cultural products.
We actually imported some
100000 of food in 1929, because
we were not producing enough to
meet the demands of our people.
And when it comes to manufacture
ed goods, carefully-checked Stats
tics prove that for long period Of
years the production of men
clothing, to take one example, a
mounted to less than one-third of
a suit per year for every man in the
nation,

 Discuss Plans.
 Mr. Robinson, the retiring presi- dent, discussed the party campaign plans. He is still chairman of the executive committee of the local Young Democratic club. Hereto. fore the organization has been known as the Roosevelt-Cross club but the new name, the Young Democratic Club of Waterbury, was adopted at last nights meet ing so as to conform with county, state, and national constitutional requirements.
 President Harrington told the members of the club attending that the young organization is going forward" He said that the demo- cratic party should and must be thankful that such organizations of the democratic youth are in ex- istence.
 Dance to Be Held.
 Plans for a dance were discussed and a committee to make arrange ments was named. The committee includes Mrs Marie Kilbride, Miss Anne Aldorisio, David Isaac. Miss Elizabeth Sheehy, Edward Kirby, Attorney Carmine Cipriano, Joseph Robinson and Attorney Hanlon.
 The retiring president, MT Rob- inson, stressed the fact that the Young Democratic Clubs of Con- necticut were organized to stimu- late in young people an active in- terest in governmental affairs, to increase the efficiency of popular government. to foster and perpe- tuate the ideals and principles of the democratic party, and to pro- vide for the people through its ad- ministration the highest degree of justice and social welfare. MT Robinson's speech was as follows:

nal revenue in the state of Con- necticut.
 Lost in Shuffle
 Lately much has been said about the various factions of our party, 'burying the ax' and coming to a compromise. In the shuttle pr Dolan has been removed from the office of collector of internal reve- nue just because he was person ally obnoxious to our U. S. senator Does this senator realize that he has repudiated a personal oppoint- ment of the president of the United States?
 q hope that when Mir Lonergan is conferring with the leaders of the democratic party he will with draw his objections to Dr Dolan. A real unity will not return to our party until Dr Dolan is returned to the office of collector of intern al revenue. He has many friends and they always feel that a grave injustice has been inflicted upon d great democrat.
 Has Many Friends
 "He has made many friends among the young democrats of Connecticut. I can truthfully say that pr Dolan has devoted more time to help foster the young dem- ocratic movement in this state than any other leader in our party.
 "The spirit he has shown since his removal from office shows the character of the man. I am sure the members of this club join with me in wishing Dr Dolan every success and hope we will once again see his smiling countenance in the office of the collector of internal revenue.
 "In conclusion, let me say that this club shall support actively the nominees of the democratic party and the state campaign and shall conduct an aggressive campaign in support of the nominees and the platform of the democratic party"

STUDENTS PLAN
 OUTING SUNDAY
Lithuanian Catholic SOci= ety to Spend Day at
 Lake Quassapaug
BROOKLYN NEWS

The Lithuanian Catholic Student society will hold an outing at the John Stokes cottage at Lake Quas- sapaug on Sunday. The organiza- ton will assemble in the morning and journey to the scene where there will be days pleasure awaiting. The younger members will be joined by the Alumni asso- citation and competitive sports will be in order. There has already been many predictions as to the re- suits but the older people are not saying much about their skill in athletic events but it seems to be a general understanding that they will uphold their already we'll earned reputation. There will be swimming and boating in addition to the events set aside for the land- lubbers. With the announcement that the dinner will be prepared by John w. Stokes nothing more need be said of that part of the outing. This in itself is enough to entice even the most critical of food experts and people who go in for an excellent and we'll served dinner, whether it be in a banquet hall or at a camp. Should any one be restricted to a diet they will forget their troubles for this day at least.
 More than three hundred are ex- pected to attend.
 The announced outing of the St Joseph Holy Name society has been postponed for one week. The picnic, originally planned to take place on Sunday will be held at Lake Waramaug. on Blazey's farm. The reason for the postponement is that members plan to attend the picnic that Is being sponsored by the younger group on this day.
 The Itam club will hold It's an- nual outing on the 18th day of September at Grecco's Grove on New Haven avenue. There arc plans In progress for the event, which is expected to surpass all previous efforts made In thls field ot activity by tse organization.

Line officers with not less than two
years comissioned service should be
selected annually for postgraduate
instruction in the technical duties OF
the Construction Corps, the Supply
Corps and the Civil Engineer Corps,
"in sufficient numbers to provide
qualified line officers for the Junior
technical duties of the several corps,
and to provide a sufficient source
from which to select officers for
transfer to these corps to fill vacan-
cies."
Results Forecast.
Observers see in this provision the
start of program under which Naval
Academy graduates will ultimately
comprise the entire personnel OF the
corps. At present, many college grad
yates are commissioned in the Navy
in these corps and do only those
duties throughout their entire careers.
Turning to consideration of the
Marine Corps, the board recommended
that the peace-time officer strength
of the Marine Corps be reduced to
991 by the removal of the officers
referred to in the preceding para
graph and their replacement by a
proportionate distribution through the
various ranks and by a uniform influx
into the lowest rank" The present
authorized officer strength of the
Marine Corps is 1903, but actually
it is 1923, because of economies.
Captains and lieutenants are expected
to suffer most in this slash, officials
said, after preliminary reading of
the boards report. Details of how
this is to be done have not yet been
worked out, but it will possibly be
accomplished through selection

condition and professional ability.
Doubt existed today as to whether,
in the proposed merging of the pay

Congressional legislation will be nee

THAT combining in one office the

whole and will facilitate the transi-
ton from a peace to a war oasis OF
the entire naval establishment.
That the chief of naval operations
should supervise all military activities
of the naval establishment and advise
the Secretary of the Navy in regard
thereto"
Revision Urged.
The naval regulations of 1920 should
be revised to simplify and clarity the
duties and responsibilities of the
bureaus and Offices of the Navy De-
partment, the board urged. 1t held
that there is need for redistribution
of cognizance over material among
several bureaus in the interest OF
economy of expenditures for the de-
sign, procurement, installation, opera
tion, and upkeep of those like. or
similar, articles of Navy material that
are now under the cognizance of more
than one bureau.
The board said that no radical
change in the existing organization
of the Navy Department gives Sufi-
cient promise of improvement in the
war efficiency of the fleet or of econ
omy in the expenditure of public funds
to justify its adoption at the present
time" The board has been at work

DROTECTION Of the canal Is a
Il vital section if navy policy
and at least S125,O0O,O00 has been
spent on fortfcation and defense
part of a total $54O,000,0O0 in
veStment.
Naval bases at Guantanamo
and st. Thomas are designed to
protect the approach. The canal
zone is the fifteenth naval dis
trict, which includes naval air
station, submarine base, torpedo
depot, and marine barracks at
Coco Solo.
Each entrance has docks fitted
for the largest battleships, with
huge supplies of fuel oil and coal.
THE canal, the zone, and the
l. railroad company are ruled
by Governor Julian L. Schley-a
son of Admiral Schley-under the
war department. The zone, in ef-
feet is a military reservation.
The army and navy have H.
900 men stationed there. More
than $4,000 civilians operate the
canal and its allied activities.
With their families, they make up
a zone population of about $4,000.
Only canal employees reside in
the zone, all in government hous-
ing. There is usually some minor
dispute in progress between the
United States and the Panama
government, but zone lines are
largely imaginary. Chief Ameri-
can towns merge with Panaman-
ian cities-American Cristobal
with Colon on the Atlantic side
and the zones Ancon and Balboa
with Panama City on the Pacific.
