tier, Jan. l R.-Insurgent Spain today
celebrated the recapture of Teruel,
which insurgent leaders hailed as zone
of the most decisive defeats" inflicted
on the government in the 17-month-
old civil war.
Government forces which had held
the strategically vital provincial capi-

retreating to the south in great con-
fusion. y The victorious insurgents,
who smashed their way into the city
in three columns yesterday, were said
to be in complete control of Teruel.
The struggle for Teruel was described
as the greatest battle Of the war with
100000 men engaged. An insurgent
communique said, "The number OF
prisoners is very high and the red
(government) losses are incalculable.
=" The roads are black with fugi-
tives and remains of the destroyed
red army"

/, the votes on election day? Is it pure
 accident that every so often 8 Sam-
 uel Insull or a Charles Mitchell or
 8 Richard Whitney brings big busi-
 ness into i'll repute or is it because
 business very often fails to clean
 house? Richard Whitney's story was
 known to 8 number of the insiders
 long before the matter came to a
 head but these men apparently felt
 no responsibility. In their eyes ap-
 parently, Richard Whitney's crime
 was getting caught, in failing to
 wiggle out of the tangle into which
 his rash speculation and fraudulent practice had brought him.
 We know very well that there is something radically wrong with our legal and judicial system in this country. No one supposes that the rich and the poor, the high and the low, get handed justice-not in Americal The poor man has his day in coutr," the rich man has months and years. For the rich man the story does not depend, under any ordinary circumstances, on the jus- tice of his cause, 1t is simply case of how much he cares to spend on his legal advice. I learned the other day that the game "beano" has its name from 8 Boston gangster and racketeer, the so-called "Beano Breen." Breen was killed at 45. He went down under gunflre but in the course of his career he was asso- ciated with ten murders, created hundreds of drug addicts, brought hundreds of Chinese into this coun- try in violation of the immigration laws, ran a million dollars worth of liquor over the border in prohi- bition days. He assaulted at least 30 citizens and some 20 policemen. He was raided 270 times in his gambling and liquor establishments. Listen to this final word-he paid fines totaling $720 and he never served one day in jail in all his life.
 We're not to forget that truth and honesty are the foundation stones upon which character is built. Noth- iag can take their place. Honesty is not something remote from re- ligion, not an afterthought, @ post script to piety and godliness. Hon. esty is the only foundation upon which you can build the true piety. One of the proverbs of Israel was "A false balance is abordnation to the Lord; but just weight Is his delight" One of the great modern saints of the Roman Catholic church was Father Tyrell. He went on to say in one of his letters that "Peo- pie seem to suppose that honesty is the simplest and most primitive of the virtues, whereas 1t is the last and rarest grace of a saintly life." Honesty is both the beginning and the end of virtue.

Dishonest Politics
 Attacked By Pastor
Flaws in Economic Order Easy to Point Out Says Rev.
 Dr. Walker-'BeanO' Named After Racketeer

we have some reasons for being justly proud of our American sys- tenn. for the initiative and organ ization of American business, for pride in the form of American gov- ernment, but it is very easy to point out flaws in our political and ecoo- homie order which fall in the cate- gory of dishonesty" said Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, pastor of the Sec- ond Congregational church in his sermon yesterday morning entitled, Unless You Pay Your Bills"
 Rev. MT. Walker said, in part:
 There is something fundamentally wrong with political system where parties depend for their success for the most part on machines built up through political patronage and the distribution of the public funds. How can you expect man in public of- flee to render honest and efficient service if his first loyalty is to the party and if his tenure of office very largely depends on his political ac- tivities, on its ability to round up

 There will be a meeting of the banquet committee tonight at the Columbus club, called at the request of General Chairman, Rev. J. Oliver Cronan. It is expected that all plans for the testimonial will be completed tonight, but that the committee will be called for several more sessions in order that this civic venture of next Sunday night may prove to be the most outstanding in Catholic circles.
 Waterbury has not yet had the pleasure of paying homage to its three native sons who were con- secrated bishops of the Roman Cath olic church at one and the same time. The appearance here of Arch- bishop Murray, Bishop Mccarthy and Bishop Brady marks an event of unusual and high importance.
 Tickets are still being distributed through committe headed by Past Grand Knight Cornelius F. Maloney and may be obtained from him or other members or at the Columbus club. Closing date for reservations will be either tomorrow or Wednes- day.

 Manager Charles Chapman, dis trict manager of the c.
