SOUTHBURY MAN
 RIDICULES HITLER
Bund Attempting to Walk Tight Rope Between
 U. s. Flag, Swatiska

Adolf Hitler of Germany was sub- ject of attack yesterday at the meet ing of Everyman's Bible class of St. Pauls Methodist church when Russell H. Warner of Southbury, one of the group opposing establishment of the German-American Bund camp, remarked that "those oppos- ing the bund camp in Southbury be- lieve that the bund is trying to walk the tight-rope between the Ameri- can flag and the Swastiska."
 He continued: "If the bund wants to hold picnics in Southbury do they have to have the blessing of Herr Hitler? Do we have to have swastikas, red flags, or black shirts plastered all over town in order to prove that this is free country?
 "All bund members are supposed to be American citizens, or to have their first papers, and as such have sworn to preserve the four funda- mentals of democracy But we all know that we can not legislate mor- als nor sell honor and loyalty by the quart. Citizenship papers do not guarantee patroitsm; they merely assume it. We can not know for certain what is in a mans heart when he assumes an obligation; we can only judge from eXternals and his future actions"

Political Picture Here
 En1barrasses State COP.
Failure of Local Republi: cans to Nominate for
 Mayor Criticized

Throughout the state Republi- cans of what once constituted the "Old Guard" are confronted with the strange aspect of the McKin- ley dinner to be held at Water bury, January 29, and the dubious proposition of what constitutes a victory. So, comment comes to Waterbury today from eminent Republicans and well-known Re- publican political observers.
 Hard To Swallow
 Generally, the opinion is that many a guest at the dinner will find difficult to swallow the flus- tering fact of Fusion in Water bury, the largest vote Mayor Frank Hayes ever boiled, the si- tuation of having at the speakers table the erstwhile Democrat, Senator George T. Culhane, in- surgent Democrat and Republi- can candidate for the mayoralty last October.
 Such is the opinion of Robert D. Byrnes. erstwhile city editor of The Hartford Courant, pres ently the political writer of that dignified Republican organization newspaper. Let MT. ByrneS tell you how he figures the situation of Republican Town Chairman J. Warren Upson, Senator Culhane, and others, when they meet to break food at Hotel Elton: Quot ing MT. Byrnes:
 Background at Waterbury
 A dinner such as that which the Republicans will stage at Waterbury later this month in honor of Mckinley whatever it may develop as far as the speeches for publication are con- cerned also is going to put en- phasis on some things which at least some members of the party

some of the more intelligent members of the party must put their tongue in one cheek or the other as they applaud first the memory of the martyred McKin- ley, with the bG ckground of Mark Hanna, imperialism and the high tariffs, and then also applaud the idea of New Republican" Party, from which the leaders indicted on charges of old guardian have been cast into the outer darkness. h. asmuch as the dinner is to be held in Waterbury ordinary politeness on the part of the guests requires the extending of felicitations to these Republicans who were elected there last October. But bringing up the subject of that October election also recalls that when then the Waterbury Repub- licans did not nominate a mem- Der of their own party for the mayoralty, but an insurgent Democrat, and the result, while it reduced the plurality of the Democratic Mayor Hayes almost to the vanishing point, also se- cured for him the largest vote he ever received in a city election.
