synonymous in any discussion of

popularity of that hardy perennial,
the navy blue suit for spring wear.

taxes for 1886 and later years were criticised, however.
 "The chart of the Republican this morning shows, as completely as any statements made by Mayor Hayes, that Waterbury's tax rate has continually dropped from year to year under the present admin istration." stated Town Chairman Crary today. How the republi- cans can continue to say the tax rate has not been reduced after its chart in the Republican this morn ing 1 do not know" he added.
 Mayor Hayes and Controller Daniel J. Leary have continually pointed out that the city's tax rate has dropped their administration, but the republican "brain trusters" have been refusing to believe fig- ures. Today's cartoon, however, showing a chart on which the tax rate has continually fallen, clinch- es the argument in favor of the democ ocrats.

 "The rough riders took things into their own hands, elected their henchmen, those who were only republican henchmen. They put their own pictures in the papers and when 1t came time to honor the outgoing commander, as is cus- tomary, 1t was found, instead, that instead of the outgoing commander Mir. Porto at the banquet table, Major John M. Burrall, the g.o.p. candidate for mayor, was in the guest chair as a guest of honor. Com- mander Porto was not even in- vited to the banquet.

Republicans of the city have turned Fiorio post of the Italian War Veterans associa- tion into a political camp; they have organized rough riders' or- headed by republican Town Chairman Frederick W. Pa lomba, John DcPastino, Major Mi- chael Galullo, Angelo Possemato and others in the Florlo post; and a direct effort is being made to drive Italian veterans away from the main program for which the post was organized --- these were the charges made today by a leading Italian war veteran today. The follows:
 Now that the Italian Amer ican War Veterans have had their convention and their col- ors have been dedicated, would like to give credit where credit is due and if you will let me use a little space I would like to expose the conditions and doings of certain members of Florio post, No. 4.
 ''First of all, the organization is supposed to be non-political and as q member of the post am very much surprised to find that have joined republican organization, as F1orio post turned out to be. It is ap- parent, i've find, that this is called Q veterans organization operating under false colors and working on the sympathy of that body, which rightfully belongs to the disabled war veterans.
 This condition could prob- ably go on for a long time without being noticed if it were not for the dirty deal the brothers gave our command CT, MT. Patrick Porto. By brothers I mean the trough riders of the republican party who will name later on.
 Patrick Porto, through his hard work, put the post in fine condition, brought 1t before the public and showed mem- bership gain that won him con- siderable praise from all. MT. Porto has a splendid war rec ord and is one of the most out standing and most wounded Italian veterans in the city. His many deeds during the time of his active service in France were noted by his comrades and his commanding officer, Colonel William J. Shanahan of this city recommended him highly.
 "Governmental recognition has already been given Com- mander Porto for his work in the war field in France with the American army. He Is the possessor of the Purple heart decoration. Without 6 doubt Commander Porto is the out standing disabled Italian veter- an of Waterbury. Take look at the records of the rough riders.
 Angelo Possemato, the new republican commander, John DePastino 'g.o.p. vice-com- mander of the convention conn mittee, Fred Palomba 'republi- can town chairman CD and the new judge advocate of the post Mayor Michael Galullo and Peter DeCicco, republican department trustee put them all together and they will not all collectively measure up or compare with the ability of or the record of Patsy Porto.
 "Mr. Porto, worked for the success of the post, using his time, money and efforts for, the success of the convention of the Italian veterans in Waterbury last Saturday and Sunday. He negotiated for the flags and ar-
