meanor Vatican officials, it was
reliably reported, talked with the
Priest after this address over the
transoceanic telephone. This, news
was accumulated by the visit to the
Vatican of Bishop Michael Gala
CHER, of Detroit, who will see Hi
Holiness next week
In Vatican circles, it was said the
Bishop would make an earnest de-
Tense of the Priests political ac-
tivities and would exert his influ-
ence to save Father Coughlin from
Papal criticism.
There was no information avail
able on the transoceanic telephone
conversation; there was no way OF
knowing whether or not it prompt
ed the Priest of the Shrine of the
Little Flower to make his public
apology to the President for the
language he used at Cleveland.
This apology was printed in the
form of an open letter to the Pres
ident, contained in Social JUS
tice," the weekly organ of Father
Coughlin's National Union for So
cial Justice.
The National Union for Social
Justice is supporting North Da-
kotas william Lemke, who an
nounced his ndidacy for the
Presidency on the Union Party
ticket.

the President will make an inspec-

THE '36 CAMPAIGN

IF I am elected Chief Executive
of this Nation, propose to restore
our government to an efficient as
well as constitutional basis" :.
These we're the words of Gov
ernor ALT M. Landon in his Topeka
address accepting the Republican
nomination for President.
1t was an address emphasizing
changing political PHILOSOPHERS.
With Landon's acceptance, the
Republican campaign can proceed
with full force. Not that there has
been no activity so far; there has
been plenty of it. But Republi-
can orators in general have held
themselves in reserve, giving their
candidate first opportunity to
sound the keynote.
In Cleveland last week, in his
address at the convention of the
followers of DR.. Francis Townsend
Father Charles E. Coughlin called
the President a liar and betrayer. y

and cough and sneeze, then the
water comes out yellow like and
oh, it looks like lemonade.
Eyes, I had my usual drink OF
water this morning, but who the
blue blazes put salt in it?"
Housewives are using citrus, dutch
cleanser, and other soapy conglom-
crates to obliterate the grease from
the water while they are washing
dishes.
No, Mr.. Visitor, those fire de-
partment hose connections between
the red and green hydrants are not
the usual thing. Water is just being
distributed from the A. ]. salt
water mains into the Juneau Wat
er Company's fresh water mains.

this afternoon the salt" should all
be washed out. "

one man last night as he took a

Gee, mother" said a small boy
this morning, why don't they

Wines of various kinds were
popular at dinner tables last night.

 Father Parsons is an intimate friend of James w. FitzPatrick of t'.is city, who himself will be hon. ored at the banquet as an outstand- ing Kacey overseas war secretary.
 The appearance of the four Cath olic judges of the superior court of Connecticut .at the same banquet table will be probably the first time they have thus come together. Judge Edward J. Quinlan of Bridgeport, the newest member of this branch of tho judiciary, assumed his office upon the retirement of Judge Fred erick Peasley earlier this year. The remaining three are already dis tinguished in their responsibilities Judge Frank P. McEvoy of Water bury, Judge P. B. O'Sullivan ot Orange, and Judge John A. Cornell of Bridgeport.
 The address of welcome will be given by Grand Knight Cornelius F. Maloney who will also intro- duce the toastmaster of the eve- ming. Lieutenant Governor Frank Hayes will welcome the distinguished guests on behalf of the city of Wa terbury.
 Handsome souvenir programs in commemoration of the 50th anniver- sary of Sheridan council are to De distributed to the guests attending the banquet.
 Roger Walsh, chairman of the ticket and hotel committee, urges that reservations be made as early as possible so that table allotments may be determined.

EMPHASIS PLACED
 ON OLD AGE LAW
Prof. Hastings Addresses Chase FOremen on Se-
 Curity Legislation

Prof. Hudson B. Hastings of Yale university, addressing the members of the Chase Foremen's club last evening at Chase auditorium. said that particular emphasis should be laid on the old age assistance plan here in Connecticut. "If we pay for unemployment" he said, "we're going to get it".
 He further pointed out the fact that g father could not be expected to lay aside enough to carry his family through such a long depres- sion as the one just xperienced. Even the most carefuI and thrifty could not foresee such difficulties as sickness, hospital bills and the like.
 The speaker described some meas ures of the old age assistance in de- tail. Following the talk there was a short question and answer period and Prof. Hastings spoke freely on hts Idea of what the iinal outcome would be.
 The directors of the club voted to join with the Industrial P0remen's association in asking for an en- largement Of the School of EngI. neering at Connecticut State cole lege.
