MISSING MAN
HUNTED;;.D0UBT
K|DNAP PLOT

CHICAGO, Feb. s (I.N.SJ-Pe-
culiar circumstances surrounding
the mysterious disappearance Of
Harry H. Wells, 80. Monroe. Wis,
trucking contractor, today led po-
lice and Federal agents to accept
the theory he is the victim Of kid
napers with a grain of salt. His
wife, however, is convinced he
was kidnapped and probably slain
by blackmailers.
Two letters written by the miss
ing man and mailed to a brother
in-law from Cudahy. Wis, Janu-
ary %. cause the skepticism Of au-
thoritieS.
In one Wells tells Of extortion
threats, and declares he was "at
the end Of his rope" Wells wrote
he was mailing the letter in the
event his enemies carried out
threats made to him that morning.
Inclosed in this letter was q sec
ond bearing instructions that 1t
not be opened until Wednesday.
The second letter said:
"GOd knows what will happen
II they don't lay off this time,
but am going to fight this
thing through TO q finish"
The letter also states that Wells
borrowed $500 from an aunt to
pay extortionistS who threatened
to abduct his children.
Authorities learned Wells re-
Gently had borrowed an additional
$500, and that before leaving
Monroe the morning Of his disap-
pearance he withdrew $500 from
q bank.
Authorities, while not diSmiS-
sing the kidnap theory or relent-
ing in their search for the missing
man, theorized Wells may have
wished to disappear to escape his
mysterious enemies. or was in
jured in an automobile accident.
His car, the upholstery blood
stained, was found abandoned on
a street here Wednesday.

STERILIZATION
CASEDOCT0RS
TOG|VEUP

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 5 uN.s0
Two prominent San Francisco
physicians named in criminal war
rants emanating from the sensa-
tional Ann Cooper Hewitt sterili.
zation case were expected to sur
render today and post bail.
The physicians are DR.. Tilton E.
Tillman and DR.. Samuel G. Boyd,
whose arrest and that Of Mrs.
Maryon Cooper Hewitt, mother OF
the 2l-year-old heireSs, was or
dered by Municipal Judge Sylvan
Lazarus.
Sitting as q committing magis-
trate, Judge Lazarus issued the
warrants following the signing Of
complaints by Police Inspector
George Engler. who has headed
the investigation of tHe heireSS'
charges her mother, tbe two ply
sicians and Mrs. Mary 5cally, city
board of health pSychiatrist,
tricked her into q sterilization
operation.
Mother in New York
Mrs. Scally, while named as a
codefendant with the girls mother
and two physicians in a $500, 900
damage action in civil courts. was
not mentioned in the criminal
complaints which charge mayhem,
a crime carrying a prison penalty
Of one to ten years.
Bail for the physicians was set
at $3.50 each. Bail for Mrs. Hewitt,
now In New York, was fixed at
5000 cash or $4,000 bond.
It was deemed doubtful Mrs.
Hewitt, five times married inter
national socialite, could be extra
dited on a municipal bench war
rant.
Milton Sapiro, representing Mrs.
Hewitt, declared his client would
not surrender and would fight
any attempt to bring her to Cali
fornia.
No Proof of Guilt
Attorneys for the two physi-
clans strenuously objected to iSSu-
ance Of the warrants without the
physicians being given an oppor-
tunity to reply. The judge said:
'sDr. Tillman and DIR. Boyd
have already replied in affi-
davits on file with this court.
It must be understood that the
issuance Of . warrant Il no
proof Of guilt"
Throughout the startling pro-
ceedings in municipal court in the
hall of justice, Ann Cooper Hewitt,
whose late father left her q two
thirds interest in q 10-million-dol-
lar trust fund, sat beside body
guard and a nurse.
She occasionally daubed her
eyes with a lace handkerchief as
mention Of the sterilization opera
ton was made.
The young girl had refused on
the advice of her attorney, Russell
P. Tyler. to sign the criminal COM
plants.

Why Not a Ruling?

Once again there is much ado over the right of Matthew A. Daly of New Haven and Julius Stremlau of Meriden to sit with members of the State Senate when the special legislative session, recently called by Governor Wilbur L. Cross, opens in Hartford. The gentlemen are, or were, democratic members of this body. The tense of the verb ito be" depends upon how you look at the matter of their hav- ing held WPA positions in the past year. They have recently resigned their WPA posts so that they might be eligible to attend the legislative session.
 When the session loomed some months back there was an immediate cry from re- publicanS that Daly and Stremlau were not eligible to be senators having for feited the state offices by accepting and working at federal jobs. Therefore, pined republicans, they could not take back what they had given up. There was much discussion pro and con, but nothing actu- ally done about the matter inasmuch as no official ruling was or has since been asked of the Attorney General.
 However, there is a question whether or not the two democrats would be ruled out. There should be no politics involved in the forthcoming legislature. It will be to the best interests of Connecticut that party lines are forgotten when the ques- ton of amending the state laws to permit presidential electors to participate in the election of the President before inaugur- ation date, as we'll as social security laws to make the state eligible for federal grants, is brought up.

Climax

Excitement rises as the political cam paign hears it's end. It is the biggest argument in this country since 1916, big ger than that one and more vital and significant. The heavy guns are brought into play. Confusion grows as leading combatants change sides in the midst of the battle. The noise swells. It would be terrific and intolerable din if all the radio oratory in the air were audible without tuning in Fortunately for the national sanity, every citizen can pick his preferred speaker, his own brand of argu- ment, his favorite noise, and ignore the rest.
 The sovereign voter no longer has to trouble himself to go to public meetings for clarification. The campaigners come to him. There will be a grand roar on the last day. Both of the big parties are carrying on right up to the final hour, < with 200 to 300 broadcasting stations in the national hook-ups on the night ot November 2.
 It will be the most oratorical climax of a political battle the world has ever known. Out of it all, let us hope, will come the still small voice of sanity, with clear decision on disputed issues, good sportsmanship and a reasonable amount of national teamwork from then on.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-28
Little Does He Know

The political innocence of States At torney Arthur M. Brown, the republican candidate for governor, is seen when he speaks so bravely at rally of revising our state laws. He wants government with minimum of laws" if he has been quoted correctly by the press. So do most of us, MT. Brown, democrat as well as republican, But so long as Connecticut continues to adhere to it's present form of representation in the Senate and House therell be plenty of needless laws on the statute books
 A revision of these laws, as well as the various departments of the govern ment, was apparent to Governor Wilbur l.. Cross when he first was elected to office. Ever since then he has been battling republican legislators to have something down about simplifying Con- necticut government We said battling republican legislators, for even at the last session of the Legislature they att tempted to befog the issue of government reorganization and only begrudgingly coOperated in having a special commis- sion named for a study of this situation.
 It's foolish for republican candidate f0 20 before people and expect them to swallow any such theory of government es Candidate Brown now expounds. He may De perfectly sincere in what he says, but lie doesn' t realize what he is bucking

Traffic Facts

Milwaukee and Cleveland lead the nations big cities in traffic safety, accord ing to new method of figuring the auto mobile death rate. The old way was simply to figure the number of deaths per 100000 population. That, say health statisticians, gives an inaccurate result. The new way, which takes into account the number of persons in the community per car = or the number of cars in rela- tion to the population - shows the true situation.
 Perhaps this statistical adjustment is useful. At least, it makes the record of traffic fatalities in big city look less dis couraging. But the same number of people have lost their lives in given period in any city, whether the rate is based on population or car total. Safety efforts will be achieving the best results when the number of traffic fatalities de- clines year by year regardless of increases in population and in number of auto mobiles.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-28

In a letter to the editor of the Water bury Democrat this week H. Close of Thomaston advises us to look at the record of democratic office-holders in- stead of pointing out how easily the re- publicanS jump from one to another when a democrat is fortunate enough to re-, place a ,g.o.p official. Mayor Hayes was singled out for attention, the writer point ing to the fact that he was both Lieuten- ant-Governor and Mayor. The latter office he sought and has continued to seek. The former he did not seek at any time. When he was nominated for the office in 1884 it was an out and out case of the office seeking the man. Down at the Groton convention that year Mayor Hayes had no more intention of seeking a nomination than the writer of this article or the letter. But when he was actually forced into the nomination, he accepted as a good democrat and carried on with no conflict in the two offices.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-28
A Moot Question

There has been a lot said about the WPA of recent weeks. In this the last week of the 1886 political campaign there will be even more said. Republicans are making a big fuss over the facts and figures of the WPA. Perhaps they are rightfully concerned, for the money that is being spent on projects all over the nation and the money that goes to make up WPA payrolls is as much republican money as it is democratic. But we still believe that democrats are not deep-eyed devils for their failure to make many figures easily obtainable.
 In the first place the republicans are committed to a policy that makes a po- litical football of the WPA. They retort by claiming that the democrats have already made a political football of it. That is no doubt true in some states, but in many others the opposite is also true. Much good has been done by the WPA; we believe that more will be done. Many persons have been given a livelihood, a bare one, we admit, by WPA work. The point remains that actually the WPA is out of politics, since it is purely tempor- ary relief work.
 We can see, though the republican side of the question. Democrats, if they were out and republicans in, would prob ably be attacking the national admins tration, because it withheld figures on WPA expenditures in various states And they would want these figures to use for political purposes, just as the republicans want them now Were there not a po- litical fight on at the moment we would be the first to demand immediate revela- tion of all WPA statistics. The situation changes these demands. We think if there is real intent of purpose behind the demands, they will be just as effec- tive after November 3 as they are today.

{, tional rights and national duties, and from which, with the state su- preme coordinator, the social justice for all the people of the nation march toward the acquisition of a better form of life. With 3 nation al government striving for giving to the people what is her right to have, the commumistic problem which, with its chess move advo- cacy, was creating a wide spread anarchic confusion, was solved with the only way possible: the com plete dissolution of the communist party.
 Naturally the. communists preach CTS all over the world have no thanks to offer to Italy fascism or Ger many nazisrn, and that is why they poster those governments with their vulgar insults.
 It is after the defeat suffered in those nations that the Comnaunists all over the world changed their method of propaganda from that ot 8 direct appeal to the rebelHous spirit of the masses against capital ism and every other form of gov- ernment, to a mild and more de- structiye propaganda, with which they pretend to be in line with every democracy in every land in the defense of the democratic prin- cipleS. s,
 Communism has nothing in com- =, a,n xx.ykta TNayaa ns,V.o nyy oY,d <1o r0Y,1 nunists, if they want any reason for their existence, must stop their democratic farce and come out with their real program, which is a truculert advocacy of the destruc- tton of the present order of things from the government to the proper l ty private rights. But that will bring them nowhere. So they are clamoring for the formation of a Labor Party in which they hope to have their representatives with the ultimate objective to eventually gain the control. of the party, es- tablish some kind of popular front and try to reach, mixed among or- Ederly forces, the steps of power. l Can Iron Quill" deny what say? Perhaps he will, but his schol- arly writings, precedently published in the The Democrat and the con | tribution of Saturday in the same newspaper, is here to prove that the Labor Party must be promoted for forming world directorate of all the people of the world by all the people of the world" and that he is not commenting or analyzing the approaching world revolution. but he is defending the Russian of Sta lin, propaganding the connmunistiC lform of government and the over- throw of the United States institu- tions.
