 "They hcven't got the courage to come out and oppose me openly" he added, '.but are trying to make . tool out of the church to which they themselves belong.

Governor Wil- bur L., Gross declared last night at Hartford that republicans were at- tempting to "befuddle" the electo- rate. Governor Cross spoke on the same Bushnell hall program with Joseph P.

 Reiterating he has made no pledges to anyone, Brown said:
 "There is need for some economy in Hartford as well as in Washing ton. The State of Connecticut now owes $T4, ,000, 900 despite the fact that there was handsome balance when the republicans went out of control of the states affairs. A
 we must go back to a pay-as- you-go policy. The people are go- ing to continue to be taxed for a long time for a federal debt cre- ated by an administration crazy with the notion of spending more than it's income"
