The successor to Floyd Olson as
governor OF Minnesota is showing
the same ability to maneuver TN
der pressure that his predecessor
possessed. Coming into office in
the midst of the grocery-544 strike
Governor Peterson has found his
new Job no bed Of roses. Under
the pressure of the big business
interests of this city the governor
threatened to use the state troops
to "settle" the grocery strike, but
after a conference with Local ga
leaders the governor decided
against this. This was finally de-
cided after a conference with the
Hennepin County Sheriff and the
commander of the state militia,
who declared that the situation did
not require the use of the tropos.
1t is quite possible that the memo
ries of the 1884 strikes fingered
unpleasantly in their respective
heads; for example, the open SYM
patty of most of the militia for
the strikers being a mighty factor
in their decision. 1t looks like that

These lines of Ambrose Bierce,

proof that the violence of William
Randolph Hearst's attack against
Pres. Roosevelt, the New Deal, the
brain trust, labor, pacifists and
Communists had it's start early in

career.
The verse was published just a

He refused to answer, not caring

He reported that it was necessary
Tor him to leave the city on state

proceeded to dump the strike into

Mayville who is probably becom-
ing used to these lap-dulnping

over the job and when asked his
opinion as to the advisability of
continuing the strike said that he
was too new to take any position.
The strike is another indication
Of the way the c.. P. operate

exit from their errors by the reck-

the living example of the triumph
of hope over experience. Forget

of the heroic Bolsheviks of 1905
and 1917. The strike however will
have some favorable repercussion5.

require an executive order from
President Roosevelt. Obviously the
matter was a national one: vet
there was no Indication that the
Workers Alliance had consented
to the strike or had even been
notified.
Upon the entry of the FWS into
the strike, they prosped to the w.
Am. that a joint negotiation COM
mittee be set up, and that regular
meetings Of the two organizations
be held. These proposals were
accepted.
The possibility of an executive
order raising the $6O.5O scale was
exploded at the first negotiation
with the WPA administration.
Nat Ross, Communist Party Sec
rotary proposed a higher hourly
wage scale with a reduction in
hours, which would have meant a
direct cut for independent truck
owners and the skilled workers
who necessarily work the same
number of hours on the projects
as the unskilled workers. This
idea was finally given up by the
C.P. master-m minds.
The WAN leader, Bean, recog-
nized that there were two alter
natives: the extension of the
strike on state wide basis, or
going back to work and continue
negotiations. The state unemplyed
WPA organizations are woefully
inadequate for the first alterna-
tive; moreover, this would have
meant the embarrassment q

Bean, as a loyal C.P. member
pledged to see that Landon does

thing. In this respect Bean saw
eye to eye with Farmer-LabOritt
Senator Benson who was als'

Auditor Hands Checks To All City Employes
Personal Delivery Serves as Check=Up on Recipi-
 ent's Identity

Every employe of the city of Waterbury, exclusive of teachers, today received his or her pay check personally, from an auditor representing the Miller Franklin Auditing Company of New York. This procedure was taken in con- junction with the annual audit of the financial condi- tion of the municipality.
 Personal delivery of every check by member of the auditing firm verifies the fact that there is no padding of the payroll or any fic- titious names on the pay roster Uf the city.
 Similar procedure will be followed next week when the teachers of the city are paid off. Lieutenant Col onel William J. Shannahan is the paymaster for the school teachers. Next week, when he visits each of the schools with the pay checks. he will be accompanied by an au- ditor of the Miller Franklin Com pany. The checks will be handed over personally by the auditor
 With the fiscal year ot the city gradually reaching close, the New York auditing concern is now study ing the municipal figures and will issue a formal report on the city's financial condidtion early in the spring.

Farmer Saved By New Deal, Asserts U. s.
 Attorney Butler

Hartford, Conn, Sept. 3o-UP)- The New Deal was credited today with being the farmers salvation" by U. s. Attorney Robert P. But Ter.
 American farmers, Butler said in a broadcast, are "out of the red for the first time since 1921. This salvation they owe to the Roosevelt administration"
 "Of course" he said, it has cost money. But which would you rather have, few billions dollars of debt on the books of the richest country in the world, or the aftermath of civil war which threatened de- struction to the richest agriculture empire in the world?"
 Butler said Gov. Ali M. Landon, in 1883, recommended to President Roosevelt an imitation of the cur- rency to help the farmers.
 ITO his everlasting credit" But Ter said. land to the salvation of American currency, President Roose- welt repudiated the Landon sugges- ton and has stood like a rock against every move for imitation"
 He said the supreme court out iawed the AAA, not because of its aims. but because it infringed on the rights of the states.
 'sThere isn't" he said. "a word in the decision which holds that its aims and purposes and principles are improper"

 KIWANIS GUEST

A description of the Connecticut jury system and brief history of the system in the United States and England, where it originated, was given to the members of the local Kiwanis club this noon at th0 Elton by Judge Frederick M. Peacley.
 The speaker pointed out that when the system was first used, the men were selected for civil and cases according to place of resi- deilce. He also discussed the man. ner in which jury is charged.
 Among other interesting things in connection with the jury. he said, is the fact that there seems 10 be no reason offered as to why thcre are twelve members selected. It seems to have been the result of an adherence. to al old adage that there is safety in numbers.

New Deal Vs. Old Deal
Candidate Brown Will Take Up State Issues
 After National Ones

Bridgeport, Conn, Sept. 30.-(Up) Democrats today had the promise of Arthur M. Brown, republican gubernatorial nominee, that he would take up state issues, as they have demanded, "in good time."
 Our democrats friends" he said at a dinner here. "have been criti- cizing me and saying I have not discussed state issues. There are many issues i11 the campaign and I shall dwell fully on the state is- sues as the campaign advances.
 Our opponents need have no fear on that score"
 Brown said the question that the people of Connecticut and the na- ton are interested in more than any other is whether the Roosevelt administration is to be in power an- other four years"
 Gov. Landon," he said, "is the man of the hour. You cannot talk with him for 10 minutes without be- ing convinced of his sincerity of purpose, his great ability and the assurance that he knows where he is going and what he is doing.
 He is not only able to find the faults in the new deal but he is able to point the way out and knows how to apply the remedies"
 The New London county states attorney blasted the new deals rec ord of broken promises, derision of the supreme court, defiance of the constitution and waste and extrava- gance of public funds"
 Other members of the state g. O. p. ticket spoke at the gathering sponsored by the Fairfield County Sheriffs' association.
