Chicago's Show Will Be
Gauge for Auto Business
Public Response to Be Basis
for.Makers and Dis
tributerS.
By Times Special


CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-Within few
days the thirty-fourth annual ma
tiOnal automobile show will open in
Chicago's historic coliseum, under
clearer industrial skies than any
year since 1929.
Greatly heartened by 1885 43 per
cent increase over 1882 in auto pro-
duction. the large motor companies
presented their latest models at the
recent New York show, and were
amazed TO see attendance and sales
leap 90 per cent past 1888 marks.
The Chicago show, always con-
sidered the true barometer of how
the public intends to buy, opens at
Saturday and will run for eight
continuous days, from 1890 to II
each day after the first. Twenty
four makes, with more than two
hundred models. will be shown in
modernistic setting, in addition to
a half hundred interesting accessory
displays.
Dealers to Meet
The show is an institution and it
is expected that in excess of 10000
out of town visitors, including 10000
motor car executives and employees
from factories, and dealers from all
parts of the country, will be on
hand.
The National Automobile Dealers
Association will be in session at the
Hotel La Sale from Sunday to Jan.
81. Numerous company meetings
and dinners are scheduled, too.
Alfred Reeves, vice-president of
the National Automobile Chamber
Of Commerce, and manager of the
New York and Chicago shows for
the chamber as well. points out the
Importance of the Chicago eXpoSi-
ton in these terms:
Chicago, being the heart of the
great mid-western automobile buy
ing territory, becomes the test
town of prospects for 1884. New
York draws the trade and also
many persons who are able to buy
new cars each year whether times
are good or not-but Chicago es-
pecially attracts those thousands of
motorists who only replace their
family cars every few years.
Show Is Barometer
Therefore, what happens at the
Chicago show is going to point the
way to automobile production in
1884. The signs are already so good
that we have confidence the pub
lie here is going to decide that the
new designs offered by exhibitors
at the national show are just what
they have been waiting for"
The exhibitors. by the way, have
reached a new peak this season in
arranging attractive and educational
action displays of models. Even a
nonmotorist couldn't help but be
impressed by what he will see at
the Coliseum.
Mechanical demonstrations, of
knee action" front axles, of the
super-charger, of the smooth effects
obtained from special springs, of
comfort in body interiors and up
holstery. of modern and proper
ventilation, of various safety de-
vices, of wind action on stream
lined cars, of new motor processes,
of easy or ''non-eXistent" gear
action-these and many other i'm
provements will be graphically
shown.
Western railroads are co-operat-
ing this year and are offering
special rates of fare and a third
round trip for any one attending
the show The rate applies from
points on western and southwestern
oiiroaGs.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-05-17
Our Last Word

We have no desire to prolong this con- troversy over the appointment of a post master in Waterbury We thought it had been decided, and rather satisfactorily at that, some months back. Recent events have proved this to be wrong, much to the surprise and sorrow of many good citl- gems of Waterbury, republican and demo- cratic alike. Last week we took the occas- ion to differ, rather mildly, too, with Chairman John II. Crary of the demo- cratic town committee, for his statement placing the democrats of Waterbury on record as opposed to the Acting Post master James Kelley.
 Since then we have come to the opin. ion that MT Crary did not intend that his remarks be construed as indicating he spoke for all the democrats of the city , He intended that he be reported as saying the town committee, of which he is the head and consequently the spokesman, is not behind Mi Kelley, but behind the can didacy of Charles A. Babin. Unfortu- nately such stand means that the people of this city and probably also the powers that be down at Washington will believe that as unit the democrats of Waterbury are demanding that MT Kelley be dropped We can't believe this is true. We know it isn't.
 As to our forum contributors failure to understand our remarks, we can well be- licve that, if he also fails to make head or tail out of the controversy in democratic ranks between so-called old and new guards. Were it not for this selfsame creation of inter-party lines the postmas- tership of Waterbury would have been definitely decided a year ago Other patronage would have been distributed earlier and with less public pickering than actually occurred. Washington erred in not acting quickly in our case
 We wonder if our letter writer actually knows that MT Kelley has an appointment as acting postmaster and that this has rather generally been conceived as tanta- mount to g permanent job. It was so regarded until few months ago when 1t was revealed that the various candidates contesting for the job originally still had chance to get in via civil service require ments. This is year or more too late. The intent now is obvious That's why we have spoken. If we have said too much, we hope it will be excused on the ground of sentiment.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-05-17

as anything else taught. Good daily newspapers are commonly used as text books, while modernized textbooks are used as supplementary matter and refer ence works. An example is found in the recent airmail inquiry and the events arising from it. Pupils, in one school, trying to find out what the controversy was about, went naturally into thorough study of the historical background of gov ernment subsidy of commercial aviation, railroads, etc. Taking another subject from the current news, they have studied armaments. Imitation, much in the days scrutiny, has led them to study of mon- etary history and principles.
 All this may seem scattered and in- complete to the old-fashioned critic who regarded schooling as more disciplinary than educational It will be vindicated, however, if it turns out young men and women who really know civics and eco- monies and who are prepared and determ. ined to play the part of intelligent citizens in public affairs.
