For State Senator

For State Senator
 ct, as predicted some time ago, is City Clerk Anthony w. Telesca of Torrington, one of the five demo- cratic members of the legislature from Litchf1eld county in the 1885 session. He is now completing his third term as member of the house.
 A stiff battle is expected in the district because the republican candidate is State Representative Chauncey HutchingS of Harwin- ton. Judge Hutchings is an expert campaigner and an old republican "war horse" of Litchfield county. He, like Telesca, has served sev- eraI terms in the house of repre- sentativeS but wants to go to the higher branch of the legislature.
 Many Waterburians will be in- terested in the announcement from democratic state headquar- ters at Hartford to the effect that an important radio address will be given by MonSignor John A. Ryan, foremost Catholic econo- mist in the United States, on Thursday evening from to 8:30 o'clock over the NEG network.
 Monsignor Ryan, professor of industrial ethics at Catholic Uni- versity at Washington, D. C., and professor of political science at Trinity College, also in Washing ton, is one of the ableSt speakers in the country and his listeners will have an opportunity to hear some of the vital issues of the campaign when he speaks. There are many former Catholic Univer- sity students in Waterbury who certainly will "tune in"

 Republicans of the 18th sena- tOrial district have nominated William c. White of Leete's island for the upper branch of the leg islature. Former State Senator Harry R. Durant of Guilford, former Waterburian, placed Whites name in nomination. The incumbent, a republican, is Sem ator David R. Robbins of Scotland, Conn.
 Attorney Walter J. Sjdor will be one of the two republican candi- dates for the house of representa- tiveS from Hartford. Sidor was a candidate for the senatorial nom- nation in the third district but withdrew in favor of Attorney John J. Bracken. It is expected that the republicans will nomin- ate Attorney Cornelius A. Moylan in the first senatorial district, which is located in Hartford, also. A decision will be reached today on who the nominee will be in the second district, also located in the Capital City.

MILK AND IT'S REGULATION

Whether il was manipulated or IN
spired in any way does not matter,
The action of the State Grange in de-
handing less control of the milk
business finds widespread approval.
rhe feeling grows that the attempt
10 regulate the price and volume of
milk is getting nowhere in this or
any other state.
There is one law which will attend
20 that matter promptly and COM
oletely. That is the law of supply
and demand. Public health requires
IN adequate measure of regulation.
Diseased and dirty milk should not
be allowed on the market. When
that is done, then about all is done
which can be done by man-made
regulation.
The attempt to restrict production
of milk in the interest of higher
prices for the producer is merely an
incentive for producers to get and
produce more Economics has a
better way. When too much milk is
produced the price falls. When pro-
iuction goes down the price rises.
0airymen need no law TO tell them
hat and no human-resigned regula-
Ion will alter that.
One difficulty about such regula-
lion is that there is no end 20 it. 1t
IS nonsense that farmer can not
sell at his own price surplus milk to
4 neighbor who comes to his dairy
Darn for it, Regulations of shat
type merely invite evasion. All over
The State are complaints that milk
regulations of this and similar type
are ignored 1t is what should have
been expected-Harrisburg (Pa.)

LET'S QUIT KILLING!

The automobile death rate can be
reduced. And the reckless and in
considerate drivers, who are re-
sponsible for some $4,000 deaths a
year in this country, can be curbed.
A number of cities have proven
this. One of them is Portland, Ore
gon. which has been carrying on I,
Lets Quit Killing" campaign that
has produced fine results in a rela-
lively brief length of time. Where
the national automobile death toll
during the first ten months OF this
wear. was at the highest point on
record, traffic fatalities in Portland
declined about % per cent
The Lets Quit Killing program
can be carried ON by any community
The campaign in Portland has been
led by a newspaper, working with
safety authorities and the automobile
association. Pamphlets, such as the
sensational And Sudden Death,
have been widely distributed. Car
toons and statistical material have
brought the horrors of automobile
accidents home to thousands OF cltl-
zens. And the local judiciary mas
cooperated by levying sizable fines
and prison sentences against viola
tors of the traffic laws.
The automobile, properly handled,
is one of the most lethal of weapons.
In the control" of drunken, ire
sponsible, congenitally reckless o.
incompetent driver it is as dangerous
as a machine gun in the hands OF
maniac.
The automobile, in its brief his
tory, has killed more people in this
country than all wars in which we
have engaged. It is increasing the
massacre every year. What are you,
as a citizen and an autombile driver,
going to do to stop this carnage?

ESTABLISH A WORKING BAL
ANCE

Wishing all Marylanders health
and happiness in the New Year, DR..
r. H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health, turned his at
tention especially 30 grown-ups OF
middle age and the years beyond that
period.
His advice to these groups is:
"Check up on your health assets ana
liabilities, Just as you would on your
financial resources. If you have not
had complete physical examination
within the past twelve months, go to
your doctor for thorough going
over. If his verdict is that your
physical liabilities are greater than
your assets, get his advice as to the
best ways of strengthening and con-
srving what you have. Then adjust
your expenditure Of your physical
resources in accordance with his in
structions. If you don't wait too
long. he will probably be able to
show you how you can cut down
your accumulation of destructive
liabilities, and help you TO establish
a good working balance of health.
eff you haven't had your physical
resources checked up recently, put
that down on your calendar as the
first item of personal business TO be
attended to in the New Year"

at is easy to see why they cause such
losses too. Let's take. for example, re-
tanned .fterbirth-and see how 1t af-.
fects the condition and producing abil-
ity of COW.
The energy COW expends at the.
time of calving," says Arends "isl
energy that is entirely wasted as far
as milk production in her lactation per-
iod is concerned. If she retains her.
afterbirth and has to be cleaned She
is off from 5000 to $500 in her milk
production. That cuts into the profits.
AS another example. there is udder
congestion. Every time COW has
trouble with her udder pronounced
falling off in milk results. That's am
other loss.
"An unfortunate thing about COW
troubles is that always 1t is the better
cows which are afflicted-aIways the
best and highest producers. The rea-
son for this is that the loafers or
boarders in the herd are not working
hard enough TO be afflicted with such
disturbances. It's the best mixers that :.
fall prey to them.
Inside Tear-down Is Cause.
THE underlying cause of these COW
troubles can be summed up in two
words-'inside tear-down'-an unpro-
titable condition which is due to lack
of proper handling of the COW through
out the whole cycle of production and
reproduction. In every year of cows
life, there are three distinct periods
the eight weeks just before calving,
the four weeks of adjustment after
calving. and the forty weeks of maxi
mum milking. 1t is now known by ex-
perience and experiment that in each
of these periods cows require different
handling and feeding.
"But why different plan for each
of these periods in the years produc-
ton cycle, is the question frequently
asked. The answer is simple, once the
problem is stated First of all. what
must a COW do during the eight weeks
just before freshenng? She must
build the unborn calf-over 62To he

just before freshening Then she must
get herself in condition Tor normal

a reserve on which she can draw DUR
ing her following milking period.
These are all big jobs that must be
provided for in the feeding of tie COW.

PEACE WORKERS DRAFT LAW

A tentative draft for new Ameri-
can neutrality law descended on
washington with the impressive
backing of 80 national peace organi-
cations. Its terms came as COM
promise between Senators Nye and
Clark, who want all trade enlarged
from all bellfgeren:s, and the Rnose-
welt group, which wants authority to
embargo trade with an aggressor
only, and continue to supply the ma
lions unfolding the Pact of Paris
and the League Covenant.
The peace organizations plan
would permit one-sided embargo
only when:
1. League nations have agreed on
who is the aggressor.
2. Congress consents.
With the presen. temporary neu-
trality law expiring Feb. 20, major

keep herself in good shape for many

Health and condition are the funda-
mental principles in any profitable

dollars saved in the CURLING of costly

herd is stepped up. The natural result
is a grenter yearly net profit and that's
the thing that counts in dairying.

The Public and Banking
1t is necessary that the public have
thorough understanding of the func-
tions of banks, what they can do and
what they cannot do, for it must be
recognized that to many people the
business of banking is still somewhat
Of mystery.
We should frankly explain these func-
tions to the public, acquaint them with
the laws under which we operate and
emphasize the vital part which banks
play in the economic life of the Nation.
Therefore, in order that there may be
the fullest cooperation and understand
ing between the bank and the people
of the country, it will also be one of our
detectives to take the mystery out of
banking wherever it exists in the public
mind.

PUBLIC ATTITUDE
HELPS THE BANKS
Annual Bankers Convention
Says People Have Had Conf
dence Restored-Recommends
Changed Government Policy

The restoration o. public confidence
in banking has put it in the position
where it can function fully and vigor-
ously in playing its full economic part
in the progress" of recovery, said the
American Bankers Association in its
annual convention resolutions.
"The passage of a generally construc-
tive banking law in the Banking Act of
1885 has stabilized the banking situa-
tion and enabled bankers to devote un
divided attention to the normal admin
istration of their institutions in pro
noting the business and public welfare
of their communities" the resolutions
said.
I'VE feel that it is particularly i'm
portant feature Of this law that it aims
to create through the revision of the
Federal Reserve Board Supreme
Court of Finance which, with the non
political appointment of exceptionally
competent men, should constitute one
of the greatest forward steps in build
ing sound banking and credit system
Tor THIS country.
The Government in Banking
Another resolution said:
1--WE particularly emphasize the de-
stability of the retirement of govern
ment from those fields of extending
credits of various types which can be
adequately served by privately owned
Institutions. We recognize that the
exigencies of the now passing depres-
sion made necessary large participa-
ton by government for time in the
task of meeting the publics emergency
financial needs.
"Those conditions have been largely
remedied and he obligation now rests
upon the banks and other financial
agencies to demonstrate to the people
of this country that they are fully able
and willing to meet all demands upon
them for sound credit cooperation. 1t is
our duty as bankers to facilitate in
every effective way the retirement of
government agencies from credit ac-
tivities by promoting public under
standing of the proper function of pri-
vately owned banking"
