FIFTY HEAD CATTLE ARRIVE FOR C0LONISTS 52 head of cattle arrived in Palmer December 20. They arrived in very good condition after having had very rough trip ever the Gulf Of lasla. However, no cattle were lost which is the first time that has occurred in shipping cattle heres
 These cattle were purchased by I.M.C. Andersen and they were under the care of W. E. Hunt1ey and Tm. Stewart enroute. The condi tion in which the cattle arrived in Palmer indicates that great care exercised in their choice. lr. Huntley and Mir. Stewart took excellent care of this stock enroute under very difficult conditions and are largely respons ib1e for their arrival in such good condition. Mir. Stewart returned to Seattle and will be in charge of the second shipment. The COWS are now being cared for in the Fair barn. After they are in shape, distribu button will be started. The second shipment will leave Seattle on January 10

Heroes Of The Soil While Not Great Agricultural State, Connecticut Enjoys Some Distinction In Field Many Native Sons Accomplish
 Eoo+c of Mo+
Feats of Note
HARTFORD TIMES

Connecticut is not a great agri- cultural state but 1t has some ex- cellent ingredients in it's soil and in those who till it. The names of four such outstanding leaders were add cd this week to those already listed in the "hall of fame" at Storrs.
 The award is made by the trustees of the Connecticut State College on recommendation of the faculty and recipients pass keen scrutiny in be- ing deemed worthy of recognition for eminent service to agriculture and rural life" In this state.
 In the Hartford area many will, from their own, knowledge or ob- servation, agree that the award to Howard c. Thrall of Windsor, was duly merited. AS tobacco grower, dairyman and turkey raiser, he has shown resourceful leadership. His firm faith in the promise of these industries led to reWarding success. His success with Jersey cattle is of national record in that he developed the highest average yield from a Jersey herd in the United States. Frank Peet, of Kent, is best known as a public leader in agricultural matters in the promotion of which his positions in the State Grange gave him useful opportunity. C.. Marsden Bacon, of Middletown, has continued the farming enterprise of five generations of forebearers and made success of dairying and poultry raising.

Representative Was Here

The fact that Representative Herman ,Kopplemann is threat to the renom- inatfon of Senator Augustine Lonergan seems to interest the press of the state to the extent that it follows every move of the Hartford legislator with consider able interest and respect. Last week, however, there was move, either spon- sored or unintentional, that did not enhance the congressman's chances here in Waterbury. We refer to the visit of Kopplemann emissary, as reported in the Waterbury Republican. Consciously or unconsciously the Republicans story added to the heavy strength that is Sem atOr Lonergans here in the Brass City.
 The story was tossed around" so that it looked as if the Kopplemann aide was making concerted drive on Lonergan, J. Francis Smith, Democratic State Gen. tral Committee chairman, and Represen- tative J. Joseph Smith. To this reported Slight" Representative Koppleman told The Democrat reporter there was no foundation. He had authorized no rep resentative of his to make statements. He did send out field agents to gauge sentiment in various sections of the state. What those agents may have said in con- versation with political groups or individ uals was not official.
 The Hartford Times viewing the Demo- crat's article seems to think that we don't believe that Representative Kopplemann really had representative in this city or that he made remarks about the Hart ford mans candidacy. We do think in this vein, but we stated at the same time that Representative Kopplemann hotly denied that he had authorized this indi- Ndual to speak as he was reported to have in the Waterbury Republican. AS mat ter of fact Representative Kopplemann might easily have said he doubted his agent had actually made the remarks credited to him in the local morning paper and he would have been in agree ment with us and many more.
 There is one thing that Waterbury Democrats agree on now that's the candidacy of Gus" Lonergan for the Senate. The obvious political purpose of last weeks fantasy thus becomes all the more ridiculous.

He-Men in Season

It's great summer for the outdoor fellows fresh from the store and office They may be bit pale at the beginning of their two weeks, and very ilflamed after the first couple of days But by the time they start home, their persistence and courage have usually acquired coat of tan that suggests whole summer in the open spaces or on the water. Ameri- can genius for efficiency works here, as elsewhere.
 It's great summer, too, for political candidates, an even harder breed in some ways. They attend innumerable picnics They get themselves photographed fish ing and cooking camp meals, pitching hay and getting in grain, posing on swimming beaches and wherever people congregate, shaking hands, fraternizing, neighboring proving that they have a common touch and can take it on any front. They are the real heroes, and most of them will be wonderfully tanned before the summer is over.
 Then there are those who, from neces- sity or design, have nothing else to do, and spend the whole summer getting themselves burned to a mahogany red or chestnut brown or Central American black, because they just plain like 1t. They are the enviable ones. And they will begin to look presentable again along about Thanksgiving time.

ment" as Wall Street euphenlisti- cally it. This does not mean, however, that the SECers consider a market upturn unwarranted.
 Quite the contrary. But not a runaway market of the kind that has been roaring skyward the last month or so.
 Prices, they think, should in- prove slowly and moderately for some time, but they discourage any boom, sure to lead to sharp recessions.
 The SEC judgement is not based on guess work, but on 8 confidential analysis of what made" the current boom market in the first place and the fac- tors that caused 1t to continue "hopped up". This secret study revealed:
 That for a week or more prior to June 20 (the first day of the sharp rise) the so-called special ists and floor traders on the New York Stock Exchange (the insid- ers) bought heavily. The purchase balance of the former was the largest in six months. Together the two groups bought a total of 164,000 shares net.
 'Tn the preceding weeks" the confidential SEC report states. the reports of activity by floor traders and specialists had been the lowest on record The figures demonstrate conc1usively that non member round-l0t traders as 8 group were not re- sponsible for the upward surge in prices.
 In other words the abrupt "up- ward surge of the market, in large measure, was an organized and planned maneuver that took ad- vantage of psychologically oppor tune situation.
 Conditions were ripe for a stock rise. Congress had whittled the capital gains tax to the bone, the new large-scale spending program had just been enacted and busi- ness and public morale were definitely on the bullish side.
 So the wise boys loaded up quietly and heavily. Then when all set, they uncorked their buy orders and the boom was under way
 NOTE-Throughout the height of the soaring market last month foreign traders for the most part were bearish. The secret SEC re- port shows a balance of sales for foreign accounts during this period, most of the selling coming from England, France and Switz- erland.

THE PESTS ARE HERE
(New World Herald-Tribune)

NNeW xOTlu f1erHlQ- 1rlDune)
 Lest winter the learned entomol. ogists in Washington issued a warn. ing that this summer would be memorable season for pests. The ex. perts were, of course, entirely right They mentioned grasshoppers. Al ready the ravening hoppers ara cleaning out the West, particularly in the Dakotas. And now the Jap. anese beetles, as predicted, have hit New York with an unprecedented fury. They are eating the flowers in Rockefeller Center; they torment the fragile and wistful penthouse gardens; they put blight on subur. ban gardens. Beetle traps? Very good, but not enough. Arsenate o1 lead is recommended, but the hordes are too vast, too hungry. The upshot is that nothing much can be done, notwithstanding all the talk of the experts about biological control" by the government. Cold weather will be here sooner than any one sus- poets, and then the beetles will go under ground for long Information, That will give us breathing spell in which all we will have to worry about will be income taxes, Christi mas presents, old-age security, in- flnitive-splitters, intoxication among adults and theology. By all means, let us take bettles, even Japanese beetles, in our stride.

Looking back at the record Governor Wilbur L. Cross has overcome a quartet of high-ranking Republicans in his four gubernatorial campaigns. Republicans may or may not have made mistake in 1880 of dropping ex-Governor John H. Trumbull out and replacing him with Ernest E. Rogers, who was serving as lleutenant-governor at the time. But two years later when Trumbull was re- called, Gov. Cross continued his victor lous march. In 1884 it was States Attorney. doughty Hugh M. Alcorn Two years later another States Attorney Arthur M. Brown, tried 1t. That's good record for Cross. No wonder it's hard to find opposition for him.

Super-Highways

Super-roads and super-bridges are right in style now. A few weeks ago the motorists of Connecticut got their intro ductiOn to super-parkWay when the first link of the Merritt Parkway was opened. Saturday the largest bridge in New England will be opened when dedi- catory ceremonies are held at MiddletoWn and Portland in connection with the com pletion of the new highway structure across the Connecticut River Modern construction and modern ideas mark these enterprises as products of the most advanced age.
 Down in Pennsylvania plans are pro- gressing right now for super-road from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh. It will be of the all-weather type but it's most notable features will be the fact that the road instead of going over all the mountains in it's path will go right through them. There will be nine tunnels on the 1892 mile route, all of them built now. The state is fortunate in that it can procure for it's use as roadbed an old railroad right of way which was never used
 Back in the early '20's the South Penn Railroad started line from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh. The route was laid out and tunnels bored through mountains The four-lane highway will be narrowed to two lanes where 1t passes under the hills. This super-road is being made pos sible by use of both REC and PWA funds. The state will borrow from the REC and PWA will make direct grant. The total cost of the rad is set at $58,0OO,O0O
 Roads and bridges come high today, because they are no longer built for mere service They must not only be service able all the year round, but they must be part of the countryside into which they are set. They must be contribu- ton rather than detraction to the land- scape. To achieve this, millions must be spent. And to pay for all this motor ists pour millions into the coffers of state and federal governments We pay well for the roads and bridges we utilize
