K. OFC. TO SELECT
 NEW CLUB ROOMS
State Deputy to Attend Re- gi0nal Meeting Here
 Next Sunday

Considerable interest is being manifest in tonight's meeting of Sheridan Council, No. 24, Knights of Columbus, in view of the fact that it was reported on fairly reli- able information 8 week ago that plans were being made for the Col- umbus Club to occupy the old Red Mems Hall on North Main street.
 Action on the same is expected to be taken at tonight's session, iras- much as 8 meeting of the Board of Governors of the Columbus Club has been called for 7:30 tonight prior to the council meeting. It is expected that some recommendation will be made by the Board to the council relative to new club quarters.
 For the past year and half the Columbus Club has been located at 174 Grand street. Due to the fact that the rooms are on two floors and also due to the increas9 in memer- ship of Michael McGivney Circle, No. 124, Columbian Squires, which is sponsored by the Knights of Colum- bus, larger rooms have been sought for some time.
 While nothing has been said on the subject by officers of the coun- ell or club, it is understood that to- nights meetings will definitely de- termine whether or not new and larger quarters will be sought for 1936.
 Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock there will be a regional meeting of the Knights of Columbus in the To- cal club quarters with State Deputy William J. Shea of Manchester pre- siding. It is expected that between twenty and thirty Grand Knights and Financial Secretaries in this section of the state will attend the meeting, which is an annual one. Grand Knight Cornelius F. Maloney and Financial Secretary Mortimer J. Connor will represent Sheridan Council.

THE NEW DEAL.
 IN WASHINGTON Huey's Onslaught on Far ley POrtends New ''Bat- tie of Century" .. Smooth Play by FDR on Code Vote.
By RODNEY BUTCHER Democrats Washington
 CorresuOndent

Washington, Feb 19--You can get a bet here, either way, as to whether Huey Long will win his campaign to "get1 Jim Farley.
 The lowdown on this is that the administration takes Hney darhed seriohsly--but hopes none of the restsof us will.
 Long's fight for investigation of the acknowledgement and poiti- cal boss of the democratic party is more than a one-man gesture. 1t is Huey,s major offensiveto date against an administration he hates.
 He is. being secretly aided by certain persons who dislike Farley and certain repub licars who hope they@can jdefeat. Roosevelt in 1896. Roosevelt is 1keenly alive to the possibilities. He can't well afford to have Farley sfneared and he re- aiizes there is at least some sub stance in, the threat that a Huey Long third party might lure away many democratic votes a; year from November. & s53
 .If%the administration has any method of clamping down on the Kingdsh which 1t hasn't yet tried, you can expect to see that method attempted in the near future.
