Doughton and Representative Cooper,

doubt that the list would be of much
value in helping Congress stop the
practice.
Present statutes, Cooper said forbid
individuals to practice tax law before
the Treasury within two years after
they have given up departmental jobs.
But they still can use the knowledge
they have gained with the Treasury,
he added, and let q partner handle

 The famous author and dramatist, who "saw life through the eyes of chi1d," lived almost as recluse in his declining years.

TESTIMONIAL TO
 ATTORNEY UPSON
(continued from Page D

(COnCMUed from Page ID hands of his friends, who form, as it has been frequently noted, the Young Republican Club of Water bury. MT. Upson was his party $ candidate for congress last fall, but ran second to his democratic oppo- nent J. Joseph Smith. If early sum- mer reports are to be accepted as trustworthy, MT. Upson is secretly anxious to become the, standard bearer in the fall campaign.
 State MoguIs Listen In.
 The interest of state moguls is be- lieved centered in how much of an organization the young g.o.p. can ef- feet locally. Would its leaders listen to words of advice from Harry Mo- Kenzie or Major John Buckley whose names have been prominently mentioned as likely successors to the late J. Henry Roraback? Or will the Young g.o.p. hitch its little band- wagon to State Senator Kenneth Bradley, who has frequently inti- mated that the state republican party needs not only g pulmotor tc put it back on its feet, but a more liberal platform to present to the public?
 Mayor May Not Appeal
 Locally, Attorney Upson may or may not appeal to the "Old Guard of the g.o.p. The banquet may prove test of sentiment in that di- rection and the result might have considerable influence in the party set-up for the fall.
 One fact which became apparent during the past week is that the young republicans are going to de- mand a voice in formulating the party,s program for the fall. They want to flght-either the democrats or the reactionary forces Whoever they may bel in their own party.
 So the approaching banquet may not occupy only prominence in so- cial events, but may prove more conclusively than ever that change in g.o.p. leadership and policies L imminent.
