Although Senator George T. Culhane made brave plea for his liquor bill in the Senate Thursday afternoon, it was really doomed from the beginning. It may be recalled that the Democrat pointed out that its several good points were com- pletely overshadowed by the fact that It also proposed to scrap the control com mission and give the full voice in liquor permits to the county commissioners. That is what upset the state two years ago when liquor control was hotly debated in the Legislature. When commission control finally won it was regarded throughout Connecticut as step in the right direction. Nothing that has tran spired since then can convince the ma jority of people that the control act and commission should be discarded.

We are sorry to see the legislative ses- sion we'll along and nothing being said or done about redistricting the state. We don't refer to the new set-up of con- gressional districts, although we do think there should be six and not five. What we are concerned with is the lineup of senatorial districts. They are as much out of proportion as are the congressional. More so, inasmuch as there are thirty-tive districts And we could have one more under the present state constitution. But so many of them are so much larger than they should be. Greenwich and Stamford should never be in the same district. Wa terbury might lay claim to right to have three. Attention, please!

WASHINGTON, D. c., June %.
Chairman Morgan. of the IVA,
yesterday filed with the senate ap-
preparations committee an add.
tional request for funds to build
the "Fowler's Bend dam" on the
Hiawassee river in Cherokee coun-
ty. Mr.. Morgan said the "series
of main river dams, in order to
have full benefit for navigation,
flood control and power should be
supported by up-river storage
dams"
at is the considered judgment
of our engineering staff that the
Fowler's Bend dam on the Hla-
wassee river logically should be
the next dam in the system for
river control" he said.
Mr.. Morgan pointed out con-
struction of the dam would have
an important effect on control of
floods at Chattanooga and in the
Tennessee river.

GRAHAM MAKES
LIQUOR issue.
Favors State Control to
Replace Sales Tax for
Revenue

RALEIGH. June 28.-(UP).--
Lieut. Gov. A. II. Graham, candi-
date for the next governorship of
North Carolina, is in favor of
state controlled liquor to replace
the general sales tax in furnishing
revenue he said here last night.
"At the next regular session Of
the state legislature" Graham as
serted, 81 favor the enactment OF
state alcoholic control system,
based upon the principal of local
option, so that the voters of every
county NAV have the opportunity
of expressing their views on this
question, and state control stores
be set up only in those counties
where a majority of the voters
have expressed themselves as IA
voring this method of handling the
sale of whiskey." :,
Such a plan, Graham believed,
not only would be an Improvement
in controlling the ever-present
liquor problem, but would aid
greatly the cause of "real temper
ance."
General conditions are certain
" not satisfactory at the present
time. and ] strongly favor taking
stems to remedy this situation"
Mr.. Graham added.
"Of course, there will be sub
stantial returns from state al
coholic control system, and this
added revenue should, in my opin-
ion. be used for the removal of
the sales tax new levied on foods
and the bare necessities of life. 1t
would also permit substantial re-
duction in the present rate"
Graham said he was confident
that business Improvement cover
the next few years will provide
funds for more adequate mainten-
ance and support of our school
system, our state institutions, and
all other state functions"

A Chamber of Commerce COM
mittee named YESTERDAY by Vice
President Thomas H. Franks for
the purpose of disseminating in
formation as to the true infantile
paralysis situation in Henderson
county and Western North Caro-
lima, last night drafted state
ment to be sent from the local
Rotary and Kiwanis clubs to sister
clubs in other states:
The statement was as follows:
"The Hendefsonville Kiwanis
and Rotary clubs are soliciting
your earnest cooperation in a
full presentation Of the facts con-
corning the so-called infanti!e
paralysis epidemic in North Caro-
lima.
"Press reports coming out Of
Raleigh over both wire systems
have created the general impress
sion in states to the south that the
entire state Of North Carolina IS
suffering from an infantile paraly-
sis epidemic. While we are not
seeking to suppress any news OF
this disease in our state, in the
spirit of fair play we would like a
full presentation of the facts as
they apply to the state.
"The epidemic, if there is an
endemic, is confined largely to the
area in east-central and central
North Carolina. which is 300 miles
from Hendersonville. A number
of noted child specialists in. this
and other states are absolutely at
variance with the idea that the
situation is in epidemic stage.
Henderson county is absolutely
free from this disease. In this re-
spect we quote you our own medl-
cal society on the situation in Hen
derson county. The statement OF
the medical society was; included
and is published elsewhere in this
paper. .
1--WE believe that the people OF
YOUR community are entitled 70
these facts and we solicit your
cooperation by reading this letter
to your clubs and turning it over
to your local press"
The statement will be signed by
officers of both clubs.

MERIDIAN, Miss. June 2S.-
(UP).-Meridian went aviation
mad last night celebrating the
establishment of an endurance
flight record by Al and Fred
Key, the local boys who made
good in a big way.
At 1882 p. m. the brothers had
been up in the cole Miss SCI,
hours hours Is minutes and
30 seconds beyond the old rec
ord set by John and Kenneth
Hunter, another brother team in
1880.
At Key field, the municipal
airport newly christened in hon
or of the brothers who put Merl-
dian on the aviation map, the ad-
ministration buildings was turned
over to music and dancing.
Upward of 10000 persons jam
med the port and all roads about
it, listening to radio contacts
with the Keys who talked with
the throngs over a loudspeaker
hookup.
"This is the happiest day Of
our lives-the climax of years OF
dreaming and workings, "Al the
older brother, said at seems al
most too good to be true
They have no intention of de.
scending until they are forced
down.
Fred said they would hug the
airport closely for the duration
of the flight to keep from jeop,;
ardizing the record by forced
landing. For the record to be
official the brothers must land
on the same field from which
they lifted the "Ole Miss" at
1882 pm. on June 4.
They broke the official endur-
ance flight record at 3:l3 IL p.
m. yesterday. At that time they
completed 554 hours, Al minutes
and 80 seconds in the air.
This was exactly one hour bet
ter than the record set in July,
1880, by John and Kenneth
Hunter at Chicago.
After completing a refueling
contract at 5:25 pm. yesterday
James Keeton, pilot of the re,
