SPECIAL PERMITS
 NEEDED IN MASS.
Motorists of State Advised on Requirement for Wis.
 itors in Bay State | .

Connecticut motorists who plan to be in Massachusetts more than 30 days during the coming year must secure permit from the Registrar of Motor Vehicles and conform with the requirements of the Massachu- setts Compulsory Insurance Law &C., cording to a statement made today by Commissioner Michael A. Con- nor of the State Department of Mo- tor Vehicles.
 'The 30 days do not necessarily have to run consecutively," Con- missioner Connor said. "If several trips make up a total of 30 days motorists who plan additional visits into Massachusetts must get the necessary permit" According to a recent ruling made by Registrar Goodwin of Massachusetts, such visitors must apply at a branch of- flee of the registry, in person, and secure the necessary permit for which no fee is charged.
 The permit will be issued if a public liability insurance policy in the amount of $5,000 covering death or injury to any one person, and $10,000 covering death or injury to two or more persons, is presented with the application.
 While Commissioner Connor re- iterates his plea for safe driving, ill his statement he recognizes the fact that traffic accidents are caused and points out that visitors operating in Massachusetts in violation of the law would not be entitled to their day in court in the event of civil action as the result of an acci- dent.

For years fire department off, cials have gloried in the alertness of the milkman in his daily rounds of the city, in so far as fire is concerned. He has sounded the alarm upon many occasions of the past, as he did at 3:37 a. m. to- day for an early morning fire in an old garage in the rear of 458 Baldwin street. He didn't know of it, but some one had telephon- ed fire headquarters just five min- utes before. But his little act of good judgment again goes to prove the worth of these young men in locating fire while the greater part of the population is at rest, asleep.
 It was well that the depart ment was quickly notified, for there were two houses close by that were threatened by the flames, and two others that would have caught fire had not lines been laid quickly, and the fire drowned out.
 The fire started in the base ment of one story shack, of wood frame, covered with tar paper. Two cars were inside, one a 1884 Sedan, owned by Alfred Donorf1o, and a Pontiac Sedan owned by Rocco Dalbrano. Both were slightly burned and blistered, but even with the close quarters between the two buildings and garage, the firemen were able to push them out of dangers, point.
 The flames lit up the sky, and badly scared the people living in the house in front, three families, and the two families who occup- fed the two story wood frame structure, just south of the gar age.
 They were. No. 458, first floor, front, MT. and Mrs. Peter Mark Anthony; first floor rear, Mrs. Ma bel Smith, widow and 3 children, Walter, IT. William II, and Nor- man 2: 2nd koor, MT. and Mrs. Rocco D'Abramo, and 3 children, Anna. 12. Angelina. 8. and An- thony 2.

ford can do," Mrs. Luddy informed the board, angrily. Reference ap- parently was to Republican Town Chairman J. Warren Upson, Bran- ford's most outstanding contribution to Waterbury,
 Pasquale Carosella, of 290 Congress avenue, appeared before the board to ask that the street be widened and that retaining wall be built. Originally, MT. Carosella had con- plained that water ran onto his after construction work by the city was completed there Inspector James R. Walker, he said, had shown him that this was not the cause of the surface water, but that cracks in his steps allowed water to run into his cellar. The city engineer was ordered to scrutinize the layout and to report whether wall was award ed under the provisions.
 Right Obtained
 Edgewood avenue residents, mak- ing their bi-weekly appearance be- fore the board which has become custom over more than a dozen learned that the last right of way to allow sewer construction has been obtained. The right of way, in question, was that of John B. Hull who, months ago, offered to sell this right for $50 cash.
 At that time, Controller Sherwood L. Rowland refused to make the saying that MT. Hull owed the city taxes. Thus, at the last of the board of aldermen, after consideration of various boards, the aldermen voted to pay $500 for the right of way, the sum to be deducted from taxes owed. The avenue residents blamed the works board for delay and threatened to go to Hartford for relief if the sewer is not started at once, citing unsanitary conditions in the district as a principal reason for necessary haste in the comple- ton of the project.

NEW DEAL HIT
 BY DR. ANGEL
U. of Pennsylvania Grads Hear Long Range Plan-
 ming Attacked

Philadelphia, June IS. (UP)-Dr. James Rowland Angell, educational counselor of the National Broad casting company and former presi- dent of Yale university attacked the New Deal and it's policies today, in a commencement address before 1879 members of the 182nd grad uating class of the University of Pennsylvania.
 Honorary degrees were awarded to Katharine Cornell, actress, doc tor of letters; and Judge Augustus Noble Hand of the U. s. Circuit Court of Appeals of New York; Sir Huberg Meredith Marler, Canadian minister to the United States, and Dr. Angel, all doctor of laws de- grees.
 Asserting that certain recently proposed governmental changes 'ap- pear to be wholly irreconcilable with the spirit of representative democracy" Dr. Angel described administration officials as men who are obviously developing philoso- phy of government essentially alien to the basic conceptions of our traditional democracy"
 "One of the most disturbing fea- lures of these philosophies is the assumption that anyone is wise enough to attempt long range plan ming affecting a nations entire eco nomy," he said.
 "This attitude is based upon 8 supposition of human omniscience which has no basis in any fact thus far discovered. That all these long time controls thus far attempted have gone on the rocks does not discourage the self-complacent van- ity in which they are conceived"
 He charged that preachers Of class hatred" had fomented an at titude of moral defeatism which is stupid and paralyzing doctrine and one peculiarly uncongenial to normal youth"
 Tt is not unfair" pr. Angel de- clared, ito allege that the pro- motors Of these philosophies are all of them men who stand well toward the left in their political views.
 Certainly there can be, in my judgment, no question that we are now travelling road which, if we follow it to the end, may still see us marching with the name of democracy on our banners, but hav- ing long before sacrificed both the spirit and substance of the democ- racy that hitherto has purchased our unfinching devotion"
 He warned against governmental suppression of freedom of thought and speech.
 There must be no possibility that the government, by its control of the purse and the disbursement of the taxpayers money, should so en- trench itself in the possession of power as to constitute in effect a permanent dictatorship" pr. Angel said.

Commencement exercises will be held tomorrow at the State Teachers Colleges in New Britain, Willimantic and New Haven and at the Danbury college there will be Q pageant in the evening to be followed by commencement on Friday. June 16 was chosen for these programs because 1t marks the Tooth anniversary of the date that the State Board of Educa- ton began it's work. It was on June 16, 1898 that Henry Barnard assumed office as secretary Of the Board of Commissioners of Common Schools, predecessor Of the State Education Board.
 Good Teachers
 As legislator, urging better educational opportunities and as state education executive Bar nard insisted that Tt is idle to expect good schools until we have good teachers" and throughout his life he worked for higher stand ards in the teaching profession. It is because of that life interest on the part of the Connecticut pio- neer for public education im- provement that the observance oi the start of his work centers ln Lne teacher training institutions. The pageant at Danbury tomorrow even ing will picture the career or Bar nard in education.
 Connecticut's battle against "mis- erable schools" with Horace Busn- nell and Barnard among the ieao- CTS. resulted at the 1858 leglsla- tive session in the passage of the Barnard bill ito provide for the better supervision of common schools" In May of that year, the board, set up by the ace' asked Barnard to turn aside, tempor- arily at least, from the law, Tor which he was trained, and to be- come the one to put the law into effect. The young man, then 27. did so, and his career as an educator ended at his death III his 90th year.
 The appointive members or that first board, in addition to Bar nard, were William P. Burran' Canaan; Wilbur Fiske, Middle town. first vice president of Wes- leyan; John Hall, Ellington; Le land Howard, Meriden; Andrew T. Judson, Canterbury HaWley Olmstead, Wilton and Charles w. Rockwell, Norwich.
 Party Control
 Four years of effort in behalf of the common schools followed the appointment of the Hartford man as secretary of the board and then with a change in party con- trol of the state, the board was lcgislated out of office and Bar nard's position was abolished Rhode Island asked Barnard to come there and aid in the build-

Americas No. Trailer Family Has Visited
 Every State In the Union Except Connecticut
(By NEA Seryice)

Somewhere in the United States today-perhaps along dusty rural trail in the corn belt, perhaps by a shaded mountain brook-the Rich ard F. Vale family is camping.
 They've pulled off the highway and set up a temporary home in their 40-foot trailer unit. The view out the living room window is different one, probably, than 1t was yesterday.
 And, wherever the site, the Wales won't be there long. If they follow their custom, they'll be off in a week.
 You can lay the great mass of trailer traffic which now clogs our concrete roads right on the Vale doorstep-if you can catch up with it. For the Wales are Americas first trailer family. Two of the children were born in the trailer, the other two during brief stops at hospitals.
 In 1929, the family, struck by "nomaditis." tired of waiting for the world to come to them. Equipping themselves with a mod- ern protype of the covered wagon, they hitched it to their car, bid the home town of Springfield, Mo-, a farewell, and went out to have a look at the world.
 Since that day they have lived in the trailer constantly, travel ing 10000 miles. They have been in every state except Connecticut. And, who knows, maybe they're Con- necticut-bound now.
 It's comfortable life. A regu- lar income precludes the neces- sity of having to work their way across the country. Modern con- veniences, including a radio and electric lighting generated by do- mestic motors, take awsy any tent life" stigma.
 Why, we wouldn't trade places with anybody" says Vale.

ing of school system, and in that state his teachers institutes became famous throughout the country. After a four-year pe- riod in which there was no state school officer, Seth P. Beers, who was commissioner of the School Fund acted also as Connecticut superintendent of common schools and then in 1849, Barnard re- turned to his own state to serve as state superintendent and also as principal of the State Normal school in New Britain which opened that year.
 Teachers Colleges
 Since Barnard established the normal school in New Britain, three others, in Willimantic, New Haven and Danbury, have been opened and by action of the 1883 and 1897 legislatures they are now four-year Teachers Colleges. Two education developments in Connecticut have won nation wide recognition. One is the trade school system. There are II such schools: in each case the town provides the building and the state furnishes the teaching per- sonpel and equipment. Several thousand boys and girls are en- rolled in these schools. The other is the system of rural schoo! supervision. Under state law, town with 25 or fewer teachers is entitled to state supervisor who performs the duties of superin- tendent of schools for group of small towns. Nearly 100 Connecti- cut towns are now grouped into 15 such supervisory districts, and in nine of them are women as- sistant supervisors.

 There are certain elements" in the country. Lonergan said in an address, that would rejoice to see the constitution under which we have flourished absolutely destroyed and 8 Socialistic state erected in Its place."
