Editor, Waterbury Democrat:
 rPausing to consider how very many cities the size of Waterbury have been victimized by. various rackets, it does seem, even to a superficial observer. that the aver age resident of this city does not realize how much thanks Is due to the. Waterbury Chamber Of Com merce and it's able secretary. Frank Green, for it's comparative immun- ity from the hawks who make 1t a business to prey upon the Ameri- can public through the width ana breadth of the good old: U. 5. A.
 Albeit 1t is also evident that many of the dwe1lers in this famous Brass City have no conception or the duties of a Chamber Of Com merce and the eternal vigilance re- quired to safeguard the interests of. It's merchants and citizens. Of course there are many who h av no more idea of the scope of the |-activities of a Chamber of Com merce than they have of where Polynesia is located or just where to find on the map the Society Is- lands and on which island of that group the Orahena. Coral. and Pirohitte mountains raise then peaks skyward.
 All of which is to be laid to 2 lack of municipal pride, com. munity interest or faulty percep. ton or a general combination ol
 all three.

Washington, Feb 5.-Am bassa- dor Troyanovsky of Soviet Rus sia came down to the State De- partment smiling buoyantly to discuss Soviet United States debts. ar..s.,t
 After exactly four and one-half minutes in Secretary Hull's of- flee, he came >out looking less buoyant, shrugged his shoulders and went home.
 Some time later, out walked Assistant Secretary Moore, lean, bold, smiling quiZZically.
 "The ambassadOr made ratfler a brief call,". newsnleri 7 r'e! marked.
 "About as brief as woman's love-" observed Moore.
 And that apparently closed g. chapter in Russian debt discus. sions.
 DEBT STRATEGY
 The lowdown behind the Rus- sian debt impasse is that the Soviet no longer has any real inducement for making a settle- ment at the high figure asked by the State Department.
 Tine real reason is France.
 On his way back to the United States, Ambassador TroyanOvsky got word that France had given huge block of credit to Russia with which to buy French goods. And no debt. settlement was asked by France in return.
 The chief reason Russia want ed a debt settlement here was to establish a credit. Now that she has q credit in France, the inducemcnt has evaporated.
 Simultaneously Russia has sc- cured other things from Franacc, particularly a political and mili- tary understanding regarding their chief potential eneinies- Japan and Germany.
 At one time Roosevelt wanted Russian friendship because of the Japanese menace. Also Rqs- offered "a vast market for American goods. But the State what no other country had ob- tained--rccOgnitiOn of CZaris debts. The Soviet was willing to pay part, but not to recognize these debts. even despite the de- fault of other European debtors. Now, due to State Department dwadling, 1t looks as If she would pay nothing.
 BY-PHODUCT
 The World Court fight had q highly interesting by-product in the senate. It was the rapproche- ment between those two veteran thunderers--Wtlliam E., Borah or Idaho and Hiram W. Johnson of California.
 For many years it was a sen- ate "sccret' that tine two men, while publicly On speaking terms, privately were far from cordial.
 They never clashed on the sen- ate floor because they see eye to-eye on all major economic is- sues. But there was a distinct coolness between them which dated back toiBorah's refusal to follow Theodore Roosevelt into the Bull Moose camp in 19l2.

Johnson was the late republi- can presidents running mate in that campaign.
 Not even the historic League /, of Nations fight in the early '2O's and the first World Court battle in the winter of 1925-2G brought them together. They fought shoulder-to-shoulder in leading the opposition, but there was no change in their personal relations. |4
 What these two struggles and more than two decades of scn- ate association failed to accOni- plish, last weeks court fight brought about. -..,...
 Faced with situation in which they seemed leaders of a lost cause, the two battle-scarred , farriors dropped their old feud and locked arms. a

PRESIDENT WARNS
OF BUDGET Limits
Action in Signing Seed Loan
Bill Seen a. Check on
Solons' Restlessness
WaShiuRton. Feb.

Washington, Feb. 24.-(P1eSome
Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill
interpret President Roosevelt's action
on . 100000 900 seed loan as . new
attempt to prevent congressional
restlessness from expressing itself in
such q way as to wreck the presi-
dents budget.
At the same time one leading
Democrat said the ''restlessness" was
due in part to a feeling that congress
has yielded . lot Of its functions
to the executive branch" and does not
want to "sit around and do nothing"
Some time ago congress passed the
$4,000, 900 crop and seed loan bill.
It represented money not included in
the budget. Wednesday the presi-
dent signed It, but recommended that
since the funds were primarily for
drouth relief tho $4,000. 900 should
be taken out Of the relief funds in the
a, 6e0, 100000 work and relief bill now
before the senate. Thus, he said. the
seed money would not represent an
increase In the budget estimates.
Tho high Democrats who expressed
the opinions did not wish to be
quoted by name, but one said pri-
vately that the president went out
Of his way to put congress on notice
that he intends to live up to his
budget"
