The title "Life" Is to be retained for q
new weekly magazine. If it can renew
the pungency Of Metcalf's critical attacks
on commercialized theater, the denun-
citation Of vivisection, the graceful drafts
manship revealed by the Gibson girl and
the wit and editorial discernment of
j. A. Mitchell, Life will indeed be worth

A Rhyme at Twilight
By
Gertrude Brooke Hamilton
Nostalgia.

The town I've known and loved so long
Is still my fixed abode;
have not changed my dwelling place.
Sought no new street or road;
Thru the same windows every dusk
I watch the daylight wane-
And yet I'm homesick, homesick,
In great surge of pain.
For in the crowds that throng the town
miss your high-held head;
Across my threshold sounds no more
Your light, homecoming tread;
The songs you sang as twilight fell
Are but memory;
seem In some strange land to dwell
For you were home to me.

Prepared to welcome Halloween.

Shooting Stars.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON,

The world Is assuming q definite style;
We endeavor to follow the fashion.
The camera brings \ perpetual smile
Mid the monographs patriot passion.
But the auditor joins with the spectator
gay,
Though place costs as much as q
dollar,
And the part I must play in the splen-
did array
Is to stand on the sidewalk and holler.
Just how I may vote I'm not ready to
quote;
There may be some pleasant persua-
sion
That may cause me some logical notion
to note
That applies to some future occasion.
No uniform bright I will bring to the
show,
Though the sun may be willing my
collar.
shall manfully go, for my duty know,
Is to stand on the sidewalk and holler.

There's kind of relief that occasions

It works with q motive obscure.
It offers hypnotics with formulas brief
Writ down with rythmical lure.
And this is the recipe which you will see
"Just leave it to mel Just leave it to mel"
1t may be toothache; it may be purse
That shrinks when expected to swell.
The medicine man will begin to rehearse
Incantations to make the place well.
And his solemn advice seems forever to be
"Just leave it to mel just leave it to

 In opening the offensive the gov- ernment gambled heavily. A rout would leave the way open to Madrid.
 But it was learned that the at- tack was step one in far reaching program approved by the loyalist general staff and disclosed now for the first time, as follows:
 Rebels Claim Victory
 Valladolid, Spain, September g. = (UP) = Rebel headquarters asserted today that loyalist advance forces had been defeated in the Talavera area southwest of Madrid.
 It was asserted also that rebels advancing from the Avila area to reinforce the column of Colonel Juan Vague, commanding at Tala- vera, inflicted a severe defeat on loyalistS 25 miles northwest of Tal- avera.
 The rebels, it was said, occupied several villages and the town of Arenas De San Pedro, killing 240 loyalistS and taking many prisoners.

(COnLlnueQ ITOIu EhBC 1I rying out of a second four-year plan aiming to increase industrial pro- duction and make the Reich inde- pendent of foreign raw materials wherever German soil is able to produce them." Although the de- tails were not announced, 1t was irl- dicated further efforts would be made to increase industrial exports in order to make possible imports of agricultural products if that were still necessary. Hitler, following Deputy Party Leader Rudolph Hess, who inveighed against the menace" of Bolshevism in Europe, detailed Germany's progress under Nazi rule.
 His proclamation was read to the congress by the Bavarian district leader, Adolf Wagner. His words were cheered repeatedly, especially those dealing with Germany's re- gaining its "honor and equality.
 What He Has Done
 Detailing Germany's industrial revival. Hitler's proclamation de- clared:
 What would people have said in 1883 when ! assumed power if l had told them that within four years farmers would be more prosperous than ever before? That Krupps would be running full blast? That Germany's railways again would be profitable and running the fastest trains in the world2 That gigantic new buildings would be erected, among the largest in the world? That theaters and music would ex- perience renaissance and all that without single Jew in leadership?
 The Fuehrer's declarations about German progress were greeted with roars of "heil", so loud and frequent that they frequently made 1t neces- sary for the reader to stop.
 What would have been said" the proclamation continued, If had then told them that within four years the trades unions would have disappeared but also employers or- ganizations? That several states would have disappeared? That I would have freed Germany from the letters of the Versailles treaty? That I would have established com pulsory military service permitting every German youth again to serve two years for the honor of his Fath- erland2
 "That we would have a new fleet to protect our shores and Q new effective air force to protect our cities?
 That we would have regained our sovereignty in the Rhineland9
 That 9o per cent of the nation would have endorsed the Nazi ideas?"
 After a rhetorical pause, Wagner resumed:
 "If I had said all this, they would have branded me as Q crazy megalo- maniac amid roars of laughter from the whole world. Yet ell this is Q reality today. National Socialism, together with our army, has worked this miracle"

(Continued from Page D e statement made during yester- days hearing to the effect that she had seen the accused tanpering with the machine.
 The court characterized Stasaitis' action as "contenptible." The owner of the car, John Clevis, who said he had come to Waterbury from Vermont to attending the wedding of 6 relative, testified that Stasaitis had become angry over Clevis' re- fusal to pay him S5 for acting as chauffeur. Clevls said Stasaitis had finally accepted Q dollar and agreed to forget the incident, but then apparently changed his mind and put the oatmeal in the gasoline tank of the cer. Clevis said 1t would cost in the neighborhood of $50 tc repair the machine.

(COnClnueQ 1rOIH rage U coroner, police announced, and was quoted as saying T must have been crazy"
 He said he bought the gun for $6 from 8 friend here last week from $12 wages he received for working in a North Haven brick yard.
 He told authorities he was on his way from Arlington to this town when he thumbed aride with Lud- low at Hartford.
 Abel, according to police, said that Ludlow had been shot acci- dentally, that he had intended hold ing him up and lay a gun in his lap but another car struck Ludlow's machine and the impact caused the gun to discharge.
 !, He was turned over to Coroner James J. Corrigan for questioning and held on an open charge, with out bond.
 Five others had been picked up for interrogation concerning the shoot ing, which caused Ludlow's death at New Haven hospital late yester- day after two blood transfusions had been administered.
 Authorities believed they had no connection with the affair and indi- cated they would be released.
 Other Suspects
 They were George Frosolini, 19; Lester Bertier, 19, and James, 19, who said they found Ludlow's car abandoned in New Haven park; Abraham Beck, Danbury, a hitch hiker apprehended at New London, and Kelso Eastman, 2l, Ashland, Me-, another hitchhiker, taken into custody at Stamford.
 The first three, however, have charges of taking an automobile without permission of the owner against them, which later was changed to technical charge of idleness.
 Ludlow had failed to identify any of the five when they were taken before him at the hospital.
 His assailant, he said, threw him out of the car and drove away after shooting him.

 Roraback Praises Cross
 Predicting a republican plurality of at least 150,00O for Connecticut in the November election, Chair man J. Henry Roraback of the state central committee told 1500 delegates and spectators at the opening session of the state con- vention he would start tomorrow on three weeks cruise and would re- turn with "bells on and whistles blowing" to. take up the campaign battle.
 As the veteran republican chief mounted the flag-bedecked stage at Footguard Armory last night the audience arose and cheered. His ruddy appearance belied the re- ports of his frail health. He wore blue coat, white, flannel trousers and white shoes. He began his brief address with:
 "It's good to be alive"
 "Every great catastrophe has pro- duced man capable of coping with it." continued the speaker. "1n Connecticut we have been fortunate at such times" He paid compli- ments to Gov. Wilbur L. Cross de- scribing him as that nice old gen- tleman from New Haven," whose administration saved Connecticut millions of dollars"
 He also referred to Simeon E. Baldwin, the last democratic gover- nor before Cross. "The republican party gives thanks to Simeon Bald win and Wilbur Cross" he said.
 "Socker" Coe Keynoter
 Charles Francis "Socker" Coe, fa- nous author, urged crowd of 1900 delegates and spectators at the opening session of the republican state convention here last night to end the '"romfoolery of the Jacka- napes who have established them selves in the national capital"
 '1t is high tirne," the keynoter speaker, former prizefighter, told the cheering audience, Ito sound the Welkin once again as in the early stages of this nation"
 Coe spoke without @ prepared manuscript. Heat in Foot Guard armory was terrific, and many of the crowd were in shirt sleeves. At the halfway mark of his address a downpour of rain beat a tattoo on the roof.
 The keynoter pleaded with the delegates to "place patriotism be- fore politics" in the selection today of a platform and Q slate of can- didates.
 He charged the New Deal treats the constitution as "a mere scrap of paper" and predicted a continua- ton of administration policies Twill lead to dictatorship"
 I'm not a politician and can speak up," Coe said as he sailed into the financial agricultural and social security programs of Pres- ident Roosevelt. He referred to the New Deal as an unfair, unwise and downright dishonest form of gov ernment."
 The ex-prizefighter was intro duced to the convention by former Congressman-at-Large Charles M Bakeweli, New Haven, temporary chairman.
