THAT OF VETERANS
Hines Says Nation Intends
to Care for All Hurt or
Stricken in War.
By the Associated Press.

8y the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn. July a.
Gen. Frank r Hines, contending that
the welfare of the veteran hinges on
the general welfare Of the country,
expressed confidence today before the
national convention Of the Disabled
American Veterans that those who
served in the World War would do
their full part" in the drive for ma
tional recovery.
In speech prepared for delivery
at the first general business session,
the national administrator Of veter-
ans affairs told the delegates that
there will be new opportunities for
employment Of veterans under the
emergency relief appropriation act Of
1885.
He said:
THE Veterans Administration has
pledged It's cooperation to the Gov
ernment agencies upon whom has
been placed the responsibility for
making that program effective. It's
accomplishment should and will result
in gainful employment to millions who
are now being supported through pub
lie relief funds because Of no particu-
lar fault of their own. but because
they have been unable TO obtain work.
Relief to veterans can best be OBJ
tanned through bringing relief to the
country as whole, and the country
as a whole can only regain its normal
economic and industrial status through
the productive efforts of its ap-
proximately 50,000,0Oo wage earners
as q whole. ! am sure we can depend
upon the veterans doing their full
part"
Gen. Hines lauded the efforts of
President Roosevelt and Congress in
behalf of the veteran, saying:
You must conclude with me in the
full realization that the President and
the Congress are perpetuating that
well established principle : that
adequate care and benefits shall be
provided by the national Government
for those veterans who became disabled
through injury or disease while de-
Tending the Nations honor in time Of
war"

BANNICAN ACCEPTS RADIO INVITATION
Veterans Bureau Director to Give Address Over
 WATR Saturday

Major Thomas J. Bannigan, man. ager of the Veterans administra- ton facility at Newington will be the guest speaker on the Disabled Veterans Radio Forum over Radio Station WATR, at one-fifteen p. m., next Saturday. John P. Barry, chairman of the forum committee announcel today that he talked with Major Bannigan last night and was assured that he would be here for the broadcast. C.
 Beloved by every veteran in Wa terbury who has ever been a pa- tient at the Veterans hospital in Newington, his presence here on Saturday will ensure the largest soldier audience that has 50 far lis- tened to a broadcast from Station WATR. While the subject of his talk has not been announced it is assumed that 1t will be directed to those veterans who were disabled in the service of their country dur ing the world war.
 A great humanitarian, his man. agement of the hospital and of ad- ministrative affairs at Newington has endeared him to every veteran, regardless of race, creed or color. The thousands of letters on file at Newington bear testimony of this fact. His greatest joy in life is the comfort of his "boys" as he calls his soldier patients. Be it early morning or late night, one finds him going from ward to ward to see that every detail is taken care of that would ensure just 8 little more comfort for those under his charge. !
 Major Bannigan is thoroughly conversant with every phase of Veterans laws and regulations and his message over the air should be of great interest to every citizen.
 After the broadcast he will visit Settlers Village and take part as a speaker on the Veterans program there.

Bristol, Sept. 25-The city of Bristol has been greatly assisted during the past four years by the federal government, Mayor Joseph r. Dutton said at a card party given by the Young Democrats of the city in Elks' hall last night.
 Mayor Dutton declared that the campaign promise of President Roosevelt to do all in his power to assist the unemployed and the needy has been reflected here and that during the past four years the federal government has spent more than $1,O0O,000 in Bristol.
 As the result of such aid, he said, hundreds of persons have been given employment, hundreds (, homes have been saved from forecluspre, others have been im- proved and remodeled anC one fac- tory was able to weather the storm O, the depression and keep its em- ployes on the payroll. The factory he said, obtained loan from the government.
 The mayor said that in saving homes from foreclosure the federal government has loaned in Bristol, from October l, 1893, to September "A, 1885, a total of SS35.083.47 cov- ering 213 private homes and prop critics.
 He pointed out that at present the government is paying practical ly $500 a week for wages to men on various projects and that at times the weekly payroll was as night as $15,000. This payroll. he said, has not only proved of bene. 1t to those given work but has helped merchants and store- keepers. ft
 He asserted that as a result oi

There Was No squealing

Huey-the-shrewd knew all about his henchmen--more about their affairs than they knew about his. A detail of federal operatives came to Louisiana to look into the tax able incomes of members of the Long machine. Soon they were in a position to bring about the in- dictment of one of Longs weaker lieutenants.
 One day the Long camp was thrown into a dither by a report that the tax evader had agreed to give information in return for the leniency of a fine instead of impris- onmeDt.
 Long sent for the man, cursed him in front of several other sub alterns, then said: "It doesn't make any difference to me wheth- CT you go to Atlanta or whether you rot in Angola. Now go ahead and squeal If you want to!'
 There was sinister implication In the Kingfish's ultimatum. By Atlanta, he meant the federal peni- tentiary. Angola is the state penal farm. At this writing, the lieuten- ant hasn't .squealed.

CORONER CORRICAN RELEASES DELANEY
Finds No Evidence of Criminal Negligence in
 Fatal Auto Crash

Coroner James J. Corrigan of New Haven, in a finding filed at superior court in New Haven, exon- crates Private Charles Delaney of the local fire department in the accident in Woodbridge August 27th which took the life of Miss Helen Donovan of this city. At the time of the accident, shortly after z o'clock in the morning, the fire man was returning to this city for duty from a cottage at Point Beach, Milford, and was giving a lift to Miss Donovan, an employe of the Chase Companies.
 The Finding
 The finding said IT, part:
 At the place where the acci- dent happened there is a left hand curve in the road. There were marks in the road that indicated that the left front wheel was to the left of the center line just prior to the accident. There were no eyewitnesses to 1t, and Delaney himself does not know exactly what took place. His story is that 6 car which was travelling in the opposite direction must have struck the left rear of his car. This obviously would have thrown his car into a counter-clockwise skid, whereas the skid which took him off the road was clockwise. It is more likely that as he was rounding the curve his car was partially over the centerline of the highway when another car did suddenly appear going in the op- posite direction. He was then forced to turn his wheel sharply to the right and as his car started toward the easterly side of the road he became excited and applied his brake, with the result that the car skidded into the pole, striking 1t with it's left side, as before de- scribed. He states that his speed was approximately 35 miles an hour. and judging from the com paratively slight damage to 1t and the marks on the road, 1t would not seem that the speed was very much higher. From where the car left the road to the pole which 1t struck was a distance Of approximately 60 rect ana IL was but a short distance back to a mark just over the centerline of the highway which seemed to indicate that the wheel of the car was turned sharply to the right.
 "I find that in view of the in- clemency of the weather. Delaney was negligent in rounding this curve at ally upon the left hand side of the highway, since 1t Is true that the visibility is dimin- ished and the traction poorer. find that this accident and the death of the deceased resulted from the combination of the in- clemency of the weather. De- laney's negligence, his genera
 lack of driving skill and the smooth tread on the tires. In my opinion, his conduct was not of such q reck-
 less nature that 1t amounts to gross or wilfnl misconduct or negligence which is the test for
 criminality according to our sta.
 tutes: and I therefore find that the
 sad Charles Delaney is not crimi.

ORANGE owes many of it's hu. A mane institutions to the leader. ship of one of its greatest iinan. ciers. Jules Paul Benjamin Deles: sert. To this man goes the dis, tinction of having founded the first savings bank in France. and, while in the Chamber of Deputies. of having advocated many humane projects. such as suppression of the death penalty and improvement of Frances penal system.
 Delessert. who lived from 177S to lS47. in turn owed his success to his father. Etienne. founder ot the first insurance company and the first discount bank in France. The younger Delessert also estah lished many learned and philan. thropic societies. founded the first cotton factory at Passy in 1901. be- came regent of the Bank of France. in 1902. and founded sugar fac. tory in the same year. for which he was knighted as baron of the empire.
