 To Return To England
Prime Minister Chamberlain Meets Duke, Duchess; Couple Will Be Greeted With Every Courtesy
 On Their Visit
BY RICHARD D. McMILLAN


 Copyright, 1888, by United Press) Paris, Move. 25.--(UP) The Duke and Duchess of Windsor are wel@ come to return to England at any time, it'was revealed today e Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain left for London after a conference with the former king of Great Britain.
 A source close to the duke re- vealed that in conversation with his former monarch, who still is his close friend, Chamberlain declared that any ban on the dukes return to London is off and that there is mo political bar whatever" to a visit to England of the duke and his American-born duchess, the former Wallis Warfleld Simpson.
 Finances Not Affected
 Chamberlain further told the duke that no financial sanctions" would be incurred by his return, meaning that the allowance granted to him by the royal family and sanctioned by the government would not be altered.
 When the duke presented his duchess to Chamberlain in their ho- tel suite last night, he introduced her as "her royal highness." Cham berlain bowed low in the customary acknowledgement of a British prime minister in the presence of royalty. Unofficial Paris circles speculated on whether the prime minister thus had tactily recognized the real status of the duchess, point which has been the chief sources of fric- ti.1 between the duke on the one hand and the royal family and Brit ish government on the other.
 Royal Family Not Mentioned It was learned that Chamberlain,

 Water Meters Freeze
 The water department reported a number of meters frozen and em- -ployes were busy removing the guages and repairing others. About 200 employees of the street depart ment, extra trucks and equipment formed a clearing up organization as the snow drifted and threatened traffic tie-ups.
 Tn spite of the cold the sleet failed to freeze on electrical equipment and no damage to power service was reported.
 Starting with light rain at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the pre- cipitation changed to sleet about an hour later and at g o'clock turned into snow. The total precipitation from 3 o'clock yesterday until the snow stopped was 1.59 inches, in terms of water, per the. guaee of MT. Walker.
 Early Buss Service Disrupted

 Extra snowploys were put into operation by the street department which sent out the full force last night to keep the streets cleared for traffic, heavy during the holiday evening.
 Temperatures seemed much colder than actually was the case because of the cold wind from the north which continued through this morn ing.

Waterbury's first coasting accident of the season came with the first snowfall yesterday, boy suffering minor injuries when his sled ran in- to the rear of an automobile. De- spite the hazardous conditions caused by the snow. police reported no serious accidents in the city.
 A Cheshire man was badly hurt when struck by an automobile last night, and in Thomaston a pedes- train suffered a compound leg frac- tlre when hit by a car. Two persons were injured in this city in acci- dents during the heavy rain. early "Wednesday night, while a Thomas ton man was seriously hurt when struck by car Wednesday night.
 Traffic Is Light
 Traffic yesterday afternoon. last night and this morning was ex- ceptionally light police reported, with many motorists leaving their cars home rather than risk driving on slippery streets. The light traffic gave police an opportunity to catch their breaths, after coping with some of the heaviest traffic in the city's history Wednesday night. Traffic was tied up for many blocks Wednesday during the heavy down. pour of rain. Motorists found that it took many minutes to cover only a few blocks.

Ideas Subject to Quick
Change; Try Something Else

Then, too, their ideas are subject
to such quick change that few OF
them are retained very long. They
are cast aside for something else
that has more glamor. A case in
point is an incident of recent his
tory. After New Dealer Senator
Pope had been licked for the Idaho
Democratic nomination for senator
by the youthful Worth Clark, there
was talk among the New Dealers
about having Senator Pope seek re-
election independently; it was pro-
posed and discussed with Mr..
Roosevelt whether Senator Pope
should embrace the faith of the La
Follette's progressive ticket in Ida
no. 1t was found, however, that
the LaFollettes had a candidate for
the senate on their ticket. To the
suggestion that he withdraw and let
Senator Pope be their candidate, the
LaFollette spokesman said: no sir
eel Senator Pope isn't progressive
enough for us-and Senator Pope
had campaigned as a 100 per cent
NewDealer.
One can walk around the halls OF
congress any day when the session

arguing how far reform" must be

And, in downtown Washington,
where the really important head
men of liberalism are to be found,
they are constantly fuming and fret
ting at each other. Instances are on
record where two rabid liberals ac-
tually have sought to get each other
discredited in the eyes of the Presi-
dent because of their differences
over what liberalism means.
The only thing about which they
seem to agree is that anyone who
insists on sanity in governmental
thinking-anyone who takes heed OF
lessons of experiences and tradi-
tions Of the past-must, of neces-
sity be a tory, a bloodsucker,
trampler of the poor, an obstruc-
zionist, republican," or some
other animal in human form who is
overcome with personal greed. On
that point, the liberals that we see
in the government these days pre-

Time May ProUe Fallacy
Of Today's Liberal Ideas

That is the story Of the self-ap
pointed liberals. To them has been
given the right-in their own minds.
at least-to guide the destinies Of
the nation. I assume that if they
regard me at all they classify me
as coming from across the railroad
tracks, question my mental balance.
But I shall continue to study their
methods, commend what is good,
criticize that which is obviously un-
sound. More important, 1 shall
continue to cling to the doctrine Of
the ages that human nature is 60
ing to be changed by some Power
that is considerably above the level
of human intelligence; I shall hold
to a conviction that real progress
comes by that method and not from
the crackpots who look upon the hu-
man race as fresh litter of guinea
pigs.
But, anyway, we have liberalism
defined at last by a man who is
qualified to define II, and we mo
that it differs from what liberalism
formerly meant. 1t was only few
generations ago that liberalism
meant restricting, not increasing,
the powers of government. Neither
Mr.. Roosevelt's definition nor his
record in office comedies with the
former understanding of the WORD.
1t seems to me likely, therefore,
that we will go on for quite some
years with this quarrel, and that
may be-and this is just hunch---
time will prove the fallacy of some
of the so-called liberal doctrines OF
this day.

Thus. there is a split, with those
VINO subscribe to the New Deal the
ory OF liberalism on the one hand
and the Democrats who adhere to
the hundred-year-old principles of
the Democratic party on the other.
There will be some Republicans
drawn into the new alignment, but
they will be fewer than the wing
formed from Democrats. The Re
publicans who will go over to anv
new alignment will be of the type OF
Harold Ickes, now secretary of the
interior, Senator Norris of Nebraska
(who once wore a Republican labeD
and others of the here-today-gone-

And further, as to what will hap
pen: my observation is that these
so-called liberal movements don't
last very long. They crack up on
the very principles which are sup
posed to be their foundation stones.
Always, there are too many lead
ers." Every liberal" who cata-
logues himself as such, shouts about
it and produces plans for saving the
world wherever anybody will listen,
conceives himself to be a leader.
Someway, the ideas and ideals OF
these liberal leaders always differ.

IF YOU remember Dawn

made, be sure to go to the
new version that is being
whipped up by Warner Broth
ers. There'll be the same eX-
cellent story, but we're prom
ised that it will be twice as
thrilling-if that's possible
because of improved methods
of picture making.
A flying field has been laid out,
the Marne sector has been duplicat-
ed, a British cast has been collect
ed, because it is a picture of the
Royal Flying corps-Errol Flynn,
David Niven, Basil Rathbone,
Claude Rains. Barry Fitzgerald,
Patric Knowles, among others. Ten
planes of the war period have been
purchased, equipped with modern
engines and two types of machine
guns; they'll be crashed or burned
during the making of the picture.
I'm hoping that there'n be one
certain improvement, and that's in
the story. If you remember the
original, with Dick Barthelmess and
Douglas Fairbanks Jr., it ended
with Barthelmess flying over enemy
country, doing practically as much
damage as an entire army might
have. 1t was preposterous, and
came very near spelling a fine
picture.

Would Force Realignment
OF Politics of Country

Mr.. Roosevelt's pronouncement

lowed very closely statement he
had issued in a meeting with the
newspaper correspondents at the
White House, saying that he had no
objection to election of liberal Re-

good liberal running on the Repub-
hcan ticket, / would not have the
slightest objection to his election.
The good of the country rises above
party"
The importance of these two dec
larations?
Mr.. Roosevelt has cast the die
for a new alignment of political
parties. He has swept aside ali
previous bonds that held men and
women within the Democratic par
ty or the Republican party or the
lesser political groups and has said,
in effect, Come with me into a
new fusion of forces and action" Of

Roosevelt's course since his politi-
cal ears were first pinned back in
defeat of his malodorous plan to
add six justices of his own choosing
to the United States Supreme court
could have failed to recognize this
eventuality. He was planning to
force realignment in politics in this
country for some months; but now
the thing is out in the open, and
the Democrats and Republicans,
alike, know what confronts them if
it is their desire to maintain the
present political party setup.
What will happen is quite another
question. Undoubtedly, the Demo
cratic party will be the greater suf-
ferer. 1t has to be so, because Mr..
Roosevelt became titular head of
the Democratic party by virtue of
election to the presidency in 1882
and again in 1886 as the candidate
of that party. So many Of the for
