Disagreement With a


 Difference
 Now no intelligent person wishes to throw his vote away. The zeal and the sincerity of the members of the Union party in- dicate that they value their right of franchise too highly to make a mock of it. Their interest m governmental affairs demon- strates that they wish to exer- else their rights as voters effec- lively. That cannot be done by voting for a candidate who has no chance to be elected. There fore, as valuers of their right of franchise, they should vote for someone who disagrees least and in fewest particulas with the principles which MT. Lemke ad- yocates. do not mean to im- ply that the President and the Dakota congressman are in com- plete agreement but they have, at least, something in common. MT. Lemke is a liberal progress sive. President Roosevelt is a liberal progressive. Gov. Landon is a stand pat, Hoover, 8 Hearst reactionary republican. He does not belong to the liberal repub- lican school of Borah, Norris, Hiram Johnson, and La Toilette. Landon is supported by indus trialists, financiers, and business men by whom Lemke. and all he stands for, is hated with almost as vicious 8 hatred as that which they hold for the President. MT. Lemke and President Roosevelt are in disagreement. MT. Lemke and Gov. Landon are also in dis agreement. But the difference between the respective disagree mentS is as wide as the horizon. The Lemke-R Roosevelt disagree ment is between two progressive liberals. The disagreement be- tween Mir. Lelnke and Gov. Lan- don is between @ progressive lib- eral and a retrogressive conserve tive. It appears to me that Mir.

Another Letter

Dear Sir:-
 You have written often that you cannot understand the in- gratitude displayed toward the President by those whom he aided. Let St. Luke enlighten you (17, u-10:
 "And it came to pass, as He went to JesusaleIn, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and GaIilee.
 And as he entered into . certain village there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
 "And they lifted up their voices and said Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.'
 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go show your- selves unto the priests And it came to pass, that as they went, they were cleanseO.
 "And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and with . loud voice glorified God,
 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks; and he was . Samaritan.
 "And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?'"
 There are not that returned tu give glory to God save this stranger. Without making any irreverent comparisons your friend MT. Roosevelt is receiving the same treatment the Saviour of the World received in His day. And while you wont find the proof in Holy Writ I'm sure that among the mob in Pilates hall Good Friday morning yelling Cruelty him.. the loudest yells came from the nine lepers who had been healed. So does history repeat itself.
 There are but two presiden- tiaI tickets in the field which have . chance to win. The democratic ticket Is an 0dds-on favorite. The republican ticket . dubious long shot. A vote cast for any third ticket N . vote lost Or . vote given indi- rectly to the republican party. Readers of this fact are asked, respectfully. to keep it in mind at all times.

Selected Poem

FALL Robert Francis in the Poets Corner, Hartford
 Times) Leave the bars lying in the grass. Let all wanderers freely pass Into the pasture now. Gone are the fawn-shy heifers, gone The little calf almost lawn, And the black two-year COW. Leave the bars lying where they ara. Let each black -triangled birch bar Be white and triple warning: One for all tender things that GO. One for the near and ultimate snow, One for frost by morning. In that first snow a frightened deer, Swifter than snowfall, swift as fear, May pass here flying, flying. What if no fence could foil his speed3 Spare him the leap, spare him one need Of leaping. Leave the bars lying.

 Pleasure Trip
 The explanation given out in republican quarters that Govern or Landon took his hy-by-night trip to California to woo the Townsend vote in that sector is almost as funny as the things which the Hearst-republican said while in the land of the lemon and the lime. The truth of the matter is that Alfred has had g tough time on the stump trying to explain away his political past and is pretty well tired out physically. So he went to Cali- fornia to get the air. There is no way of telling whether he got it or not. We wont slknow until Wednesday November 4th. On that morning it is safe to say that California will have given Alfred the air in such quantitieS that he will never come Up for more.

e. What Is the annual attend ance at the English derby at Epson Downs?
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-23

years old, at the head of the street where I lived there was a woods. Long since 1t has given way to houses and lawns but in its day it was a field of adventure for the young sters of the neighborhood. The trees were nesting places for birds of all descriptions. The hazel bushes furnished hiding places for rabbits and other small animals. One day I encountered a black and white thing which looked to my inexperienced eye like a cat which had strayed from home. All attempts to coax it within grasp failed. Finally I managed to corner it hardby a stone wall and with the reck- lessness of the inexperienced I dashed in to pick it up and re- store 1t to its owner. The result was that I spent long hours in the family woodshed as an ob- feet of derision and avoidance ua- til such time as fresh clothing could be handed me on the end of a clothes-pole through the woodshed window. From that day unto this I have made 1t a rule never to have anything to do with that kind of an animal. I cannot break the rule now even by way of newsprint.
 The Choice
 I have no doubt that there are some sincere men and women in Waterbury who believe implicitly in the theories and support zeal- ously the candidacy of MT. Lemke for the presidency. Without re- sorting to any lengthy argument to convince them of the unrea- condolences of their position l would like to propose some thoughts for their consideration. Admitting that MT. Lemke IS liberal progressive in his stand on national problems where does the mission get us? Even Father Coughlin, I think, is under no H. fusion about his nominees chance for election. That being the case the supporters of the Dakota congressman have choice Of two alternatives:
 (1) They may cast their votes
 for Lemke and by so do-
 ing throw them away.
 (2) They may vote for Pres-
 ident Roosevelt.

Republican Bouquet

q
 After it's habitual fashion the Waterbury Republican threw an editorial bouquet at President Roosevelt Tuesday morning, a bouquet with 8 rotten egg for 8 center piece. MT. Roosevelt's visit was construed, in question form, as an act of political des- peration and as waste of time trying "to SOW democratic seed on demonstrably barren soil" Anyone who had the happiness of seeing MT. Roosevelt close up must have been struck by his ap- pearance of vigorous health and his serene confidence. If his words, his manner, and the effect he produced were a manifesto tion of political desperation, either in himself or in the demo- cratic ranks in Connecticut, the Republican has my permission to extract whatever satisfaction 1t can out of it. At the same time the Republican might try to de- molish the unanswerable argu- ment which MT. Roosevelt made in one sentence for his re-elec- tion: WATERBURY IS A DE- FERENT CITY THAN TT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO!" For the change President Roosevelt can take no credit to himself. The alteration from despair to bounc- ing recovery at home and in the nation was brought about by the birth of the Dionne quintuplets, the electrocution of Hauptmann, the increase in the elderberry crop, and geater destruction of tent caterpillar nests.
