"Pay Day"

All Waterbury members of the reduced WPA personnel were paid this morning on the jobs, it was announced by William E. Ken- nedy, local engineer of projects.
 It was believed last week that today's checks would see the in- auguration of the new mailing system which has been tried out by the state WPA for workers in suburban towns and which elirn- mates the necessity of sending a paymaster from one city to the other.
 Such was not the case, however, though 1t is believed htat the sys- tenn of mailing the checks will be put into effect in the near future.

SENATOR SMASHES
 ROOSEVELT'S PLAN
Holt Tells GuilfOrd Audi= ence Presidents Idea Furnishes Individuals

Addressing a town hall audience in Guilford, Conn, Saturday night, Senator Rush D. Holt of West Vir- ginia smashed ruthlesSly at admin istration tactics in the court fight.
 "The policy of the administra- tion", he said, "has been to punish every individual who would not ac- cept the presidents program, and to pour out of the treasury huge sums to those areas where support for the presidents plan could bet obtained.
 Tactics of that kind have been used before, but in this instance the need for votes is more pronounced and the administration is more anx- ious. The facts are that this battle to change the supreme court isn't being paid for out of party cam paign funds alone. It is being paid for in part out of the public treas ury. It is well known that the policy is to toss money to the four winds in the states where friends of the administration are found; and in other states where relief may be urgently needed, help is de- nied or delayed.
 Senator Holt pleaded frankly and eloquently for "an opportunity to permit the people of this land to decide for themselves whether or not they prefer a change in our highest court"
 "The American people would have thought far more of this proposal had 1t been presented frankly, openly and not by subterfuge." he said. "The whole scheme is plainly to establish the word must over the supreme court just as effec- lively as 1t has been established over the congress of the United States"
 The senator told of the results of his poll in West Virginia where more than 84 per cent of those who responded indicated a determined opposition to any changes in the American judiciary system.
 Farmers are more opposed than any other group" he declared, and that is of course significant. By and large, this assault upon the court can only work against true liberalism and the opportunity is present as never before for the youth of this nation to assert them selves"
 Miss Cathrine Curtis of New York City, chairman of the womens com- mittee for Hands of the Supreme Court told of the efforts her or- ganization was making on a nation wide basis. State committees had been formed everywhere, she said, and countless thousands of protest petitions had been circulated and forwarded to Washington.

 IS SUSPECTED

New Haven, Conn, July 26.-(UP) Local police were reported today seeking a New York city gang for questioning in the $6000 holdup of J. Murray Slater, credit manager for Wehle's Brewery, last Friday.
 Slater has confronted approxi- mately 40 suspects in the daring, downtown holdup and failed to identify any of them.
 Police believed an out-of state group, with a local "fingerman," was responsible for the robbery.
 Slater was accosted by two men as he got out of his car to enter the Winchester Grille, where he was to cash checks of approximately 800 employers of Winchester Repeating Arms Go. The bandits drove away with Slater in the car for about five blocks, dumped him out, and then escaped with a federal reserve bag containing the money.
