Greatest Engineering Feat Since Panama Canal;
 Roosevelt to Speak
BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Press White House Cor
 rpanOndent\

Boulder, Dam. New, Sept. 30.--
 UP) .-President Roosevelt came to Nevada today to dedicate Boulder Dam, America's greatest engineering accomplishment since the Panama canal, and to make the second major address of his western trip.
 MT. Roosevelt authorized alloca- tlo1 of $38,000.000 necessary to sh the project two years ahead of schedule. What it means to this territory will be pointed out in his speech this afternoon in which he also was expected to survey his administrati0n's utilities program and possibly touch upon the sub ject of state cooperation.
 The president put the finishing touches to his speech as his special train rolled sOuthward from Salt Lake City through a country of barren mountains and sage brush and an occasional little town where the population turned out en masse to cheer him. At several of the stops he told greeters:
 T can tell by the looks on your faces that times are better than they were three years ago."
 MT. Roosevelt arrived with Sec retary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes who, with public works ad- ministrator, has been directly re- sponslble for construction. Also with him were Harry Hopkins, HPA administrators; Sen. Pat Me- Carran, democrat. Nevada; Sen. Key Pittman, democrat, Nevada; Dr. Elwood Mead, federal director

Panorama Of City's
 Products At Village
Town Hall Scene of Industrial Expositon-6S Con-
 cerns Cooperate in Educational Display

The Industrial Exhibit In Town Hall, Settlers Village. is truly a panOrama of Industrial output in { 10 Waterbury Area. Fifty-two fn- aividual concerns in Waterbury proper-many of them having sev- srai plants--and sixteen concerns n Naugatuck, Oakville, Thomas fDn and Watertown have cooperat- n1 in making this probably the most outstanding display of items of local manufacture that Water bury has ever had.
 The Town Hall faces East, and from it's lofty eminence overlooks Waterbury. Entering the East Door one is confronted with a blaze of light Illuminating seven foot black and gold Waterbury Seal placed above four gold placques inscribed with the names of CO., operating companies. Streamers of colored rayon from ceiling to floor flank this center piece. Across the top of the back wall In foot high letters is the legend Brass Center of the World" Toward the center of the lobby, on a specially built table, is a large brown book bound in red morocco. Its pages, meas tring 3 feet feet, classify CO., operating companies by product.
 Four Sections
 The display itself is divided into four sections. Each section is en- closed by polished brass railing and measures roughly 35 inches x Hs.A tsn nx. hf walls are hung twenty 4 inch X ( inch display panels bound In brass A table type display arranged In receding steps, each trapped with maroon velour and edged with brass strip, fS built into the dis play areas.
 Immediately to the left of the entrance is the display of durable goods. Here we find machinery artistic bronze placques, intricate motor block castings, bronze cast. ings, non-ferrous will products, and fire extinguIshers in the floor and table display. The wall displays in this area show hardware, lawn . sprinklers, garden cutters, brasi forgings. screw machine products and cap and machine screws. Also Interesting is an example of the thinnest pure nickel ever rolled (.0008). All are products of Water bury and only limited space prohi' bits larger display, as machinery ranging from single pieces of 7t tons to fine diamond saws arc made here.
 over the South entrance Is q fnt oil painting Clouds of Industrial ism over Waterbury" by q local ar tist, Stanton Webster.
 Along the back wall is an area devoted to products long associat cd with Waterbury, clocks, watch es, and recording instruments These products are among the fin.

est of their kind. In addition here are batteries, electric light fixtures electric appliances, plumbers brass goods, bathroom hardware, and even wool dusters, of which Water bury supplies large quantities. On panels on the back wall in this sec- ton are displayed glass. watches electric fixtures and bathroom hardware. The products shown here are displayed for sale in the finest stores in the country.
 To the right against the back wall on tables is an unsurpassed display of giftware. silverware, novelties. paper boxes and silk thread. The panels in this section show pins, paper fasteners, toys, cosmetic containers, such as vanity boxes, lipsticks, bottle caps. etc., plumbing supplies, and a miscel- laneous panel of flexible metal hose, oil cans, etc. Here one is made to realize that in every home and on every man, woman and child will probably be found pro- ducts of Waterbury.
 Above the North entrance is an attractive, flashing dispIay'of rayon fabrics. Here also is depicted the processing of rayon from wood to finished products. The product of the machine age now competing with silk, the finest of natures fabrics.
 Table Display
 In the area immediately to the right. of the East entrance is 6 very comprehensive table display. in- cluding rubber goods from foot wear to bathing suits and water toys-molded products of synthe- tic nature, and miscellaneous me- tai products, including/ heating valves. heating coils and radiators seamless copper floats. ice picks, ice cream dishers. juice extractors hair curlers, and many other items The panels show rubber goods, nodded products, clothing, hard ware and buttons.
 Space rather than products is the limiting factor in this display. Hundreds. probably thousands. of items deserving of display are not shown. However, to the people of Waterbury. as well as to out-of- town visitors, will be disclosed an unbelievable variety of products shipped from Waterbury that this earth may be better place on which to live.

GOVERNORS TALK
 TO BE BROADCAST
WTIC to Feature Cross Talk to Manufacturers
 in Hartford Wednesday,

Governor Wilbur l.. Cross ad- dress to the people of Connecticut, which will formally open the Con- necticut tercenteuary exposition, Wednesday, October 2, will be broadcast to the state directly from the state armory, Hartford. at 12 noon, instead of later in the day as originally planned. The broad cast of the opening game of the world series that afternoon caused the change in the program.
 The governors address will be given in the presence of the mem- bers of the Manufacturers' Asso- ciation of Connecticut who will as- semble at the exposition Wednes- day morning for their twenty fifth annual meeting and pre- view of the exposition, which will be opened to the public at D. m. Wednesday evening.
 F.. Kent Hubbard, president of the association, will open the for nal program. He will present Samuel H. Fisher, chairman of the tercentenary commission, who will be followed by Governor Cross.
 Dr. Virgil Jordan, chairman of the national industrial conference board. guest speaker for the occa- sion, will give the formal address of the exposition opening following Governor Cross.
 The whole program will be sent out by WTIC from the studio in the exposition hall from which de- scriptive accounts of the exposition will be sent from time to time dur ing the To-day exhibition. Regular features of the WTIC program will also be given from the exposi- ton studio. State and national dig nitaries and celebrities of the en- tertainment world will also be pre- sented from the glass enclosed studio during the show.

relief or the dole unless repub- licans reassume command.
 Second place on the ticket will not be given to a democrat, barring sharp reversal of sentiment.
 Most of the big shots in the party seems to be aiming for another "smoke-filled room" nomination. At least, few minds are now made up.
 The candidate will have to be one who will represent the domin- ant forces in the party and yet not confirm the impression that the party is primarily representative of huge corporations and multimil- lionaires.
 It's yet to be decided how much independence and progressivism he should be able to profess. At this writing 1t doesn't seem that Borah wil lenter the picture formidably.
 The platform will be largely one of protest. Attack strategy ts to specific New Deal measures is largely dependent on supreme court decisions and there's still an ach- ing space for the bright boy who can think up Q good plank for the farmers.

fDemOcrnt Washington C0fres-
 epondent)

Washington, Sept. 3O-The men who run the republican party are d clOse-mouthed crew. It is virtu- ally nnheard-of for a correspond Nnt tO be able to get one of them off to e quiet corner and persuade him 10 spill party secrets under the mellowing influence of dlstillation pF brew.
 Democratic politicians incline to b1 q bit more chummy.
 Just the same, there is news to De had out of the secret sessions of the republican executive com mftto here:
 The c. o. P. machinery is In Inc hands of the same staunch crowd, which in type has changed little. since the Old Guard steam r0llered Teddy Roosevelt out of Chicago in 1912, on the theory that it were better to lose an elec- ton with Taft than to lose grip on that party machinery. This means that another con- tervative "back to normalcy" cam- aaign Is much more likely than a candidate and platform tainted by Nberalism or compromise with the New Deal.
 The party chiefs are obsessed with the idea of raising walloping big Campaign fund. Some of them are sure it will be the biggest ever collected.
 Tentative plans call for heavy expenditures in individual congress gional districts with the aim of re- capturing the House. (The c. O. F. knows 1t can't possibly win the Senate next year.)
