would lose out. And in that case
you could turn your gaze toward
Senator Sherman Minton Of In
diana, an able lawyer and loyal
administration man; toward Dean
Lloyd K Garrison Of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin,; and toward
Gov. Frank Murphy Of Michigan.
Murph", who has just been con-
graduated Gy the president for
his work in settling the General
Motors strike, is especially strong
as a possibility because Roosevelt
undoubtedly will feel compelled to
appoint a Roman Catholic men,
bar TO The court if there is any re-
vamping. But Murphy is young
and probably wouldn't accept. The
only Catholic justice now sitting
is Pierce Butler, who is over 70.

close utilization to Tammany Hall.

ANOTHER COUNTRY HEARD FROM

"There are a good many things the present ad-
minstration has done that gave US pain in the
stomach, if not in the heart; but no proposal yet
made or put over by the New Deal (not even the
NRA) ranks in its seriousness and in its obvious
purpose as does this proposal to give the president
control over the highest and final court in the
land" That is the expression of The Twin-City

Almost An Admission

The large number of bills concerning the City of Waterbury which the Repub- lican Town Committee is sponsoring at Hartford this year must interest the aver age person. A good many have been inquiring from various sources what IS behind this desire of the g.o.p. to limit the present powers of the mayor. The answer should be apparent to those who look ahead. It is quite clear that repub- licans realize that they have little or no chance of winning the 1887 city election and are prepared to put up with demo- cratic mayor for another two years.
 On the assumption that it will be May or Frank Hayes again, they are endeav- bring to ready the situation for him by tying his hands on certain appoint mentS Such tacit admission of defeat won't set well with certain elements of the republican party of this city not yet convinced that everything that could possibly be done in the interests of the party is being done. But perhaps 1t hasn't penetrated to these circles yet just how the town committees legislative ac- tivities are being regarded. Certainly democrats ought to be treasured as to the possible outcome next October.
 Oddly enough republicans are present. Ing DlllS at f1dIClOIu SeekllS Io CuAU CitC powers of our chief executive when an ef- fort is being made to increase the pow CTS of the governor of the state.

No Swim Suit Rules

Police authorities in Florida resorts have decided to put the matter of bathing suit modesty, propriety, decency, or what ever it is, up to the individual. They are issuing no rules this season and say they have no intention of patrolling beaches with tape measures and color charts. "We will follow the mode in bathing suits, whatever the mode may be-" explains an official "Those who frequent the beach here and conduct themselves with de- corum may wear about what they please"
 From another resort comes the pointed comment: 'The new year is 1887, not 1897. Conscience is the only rule of con- duct and covering on our city beaches this winter" Good taste and conscience are to rule. If they are gone with past seasons, as some fear, there may be general trend toward nudism. Probably this extreme result will not follow. Re moval of official restrictions may have an interesting psychological effect, serv- Ing to lessen the impudent rivalry which has attracted too much attention to the Dimensions of bathing suits and not enough to the swimming and sun-bathing achieved.

One of the most outspoken attacks on communism heard in this city was that delivered at the annual Catholic Action banquet of Sheridan Council of the Knights 'of Columbus Wednesday night. It evidently opens a campaign that the K. of c. is opening on communism in an active fashion. However, the address de- livered by the Rev. Aloysius J. Hogan, s. J., of Georgetown University, opened the tn way to more active participationt c in in above. They seem to be more militant today than they were a few years back.

Overlooked One Thing

The state reorganization commission has seemed to overlook one bet in filing it's report It didn't mention anything about recognizing our present legisla- tive set-up. Perhaps the commission realized the futility of doing anything like this. However, good many people, exclusive of the few hundred members of the august General Assembly, are of different opinion. That's why you can always rouse some enthusiasm in Connec- ticut by talking about the rotten bor- ough system of government" That's by. way of being by-word in our fair state.
 Had the reorganization commission touched upon the uni-cameral system of law-making as opposed to the bi-cameral we know good debate might have been started. But, as we said above, It would mean that the entire report would have been thrown out without the thor ough examination that it so obviously re- quires and demands. However, there is, a bare possibility that we may hear more of this uni-cameral legislative body in the years to come. state here and there steps out with it regularly. Give it time and it may flourish into healthy young specimen.
 There is one thing certain, that if all the various groups which want lower taxes are sincere they will ultimately center their aim on the state capital. It is the seat of most of our taxes. Where we have been looking for more taxes of recent years in an effort to lower them on property, we have failed to be as vigilant in cleaning up the added governmental agencies and services that keep accumu- lating. We don't proclaim the uni-cam- eral legislature as the cure-all for our present-day ills. It might not solve single Connecticut problem. But we do think that legislators will have to clean house to make the job or reorganization and retrenchment complete.

Although Waterbury is not partici- pating in the Presidents Ball plan this year, there are many citizens interested in the outcome of these unique events, which since their inception several years ago have resulted in large sums being do- mated annually towards the eradication of the dread disease of infantile paralysis. What steps a community that does not hold Presidents Ball should take to- wards aiding the fund is more or less problematical. But so much help! has been provided for cases that otherwise would not receive it through the funds realized by the balls that it is worthwhile keeping alive the movement We do think that Waterbury should endeavor to do something towards contributing to the Warm Springs Foundation. Perhaps it isn't too late yet for the city to aid. Of course coming as it does when the Red Cross and Boy Scouts are appealing to local citizens the adde. burden of an other drive would be almost too much.

Heroisun

Out of the tragedy and misery and despair of the floods come tales of hero ism. Telephone girls sticking to their posts without food and sleep until they can be relieved by other girls who also stick = until the rising waters stop the telephones. Men on boats rescuing the homeless hour after hour until they drop. Volunteers relieving Red Cross workers at the soup kettles and first aid stations to give the regular workers chance at a little sleep. Incredible stories of people holding out against cold and hunger and fatigue in order to save their fellows. <.
 Boy Scouts with their mixture of boy ish abandon and Scout seriousness rush ing hither and yon on useful errands. (The endurance and devotion of police men, firemen, radio operators, newspaper men and other public servants are some how taken for granted.) Grandmothers doing impossible featS to save their grand children = and quietly lying down and dying when the children are safe. Fathers and mothers and children showing their love and strength for each other now as never before. Strangers risking life and health and reason itself for other strangers.
 What paradoxical human race it is! It will fight bitterly against taxes for flood control = and give it's life unhesitatingly to rescue the family dog and canary from the flood. Consistent? Of course not. But beautiful? Yes! Beyond dreams of any earthly beauty have been the recent manifestations of the human spirit.
