UNEMPLOYMENT
 CHECKS IN NAVAL
(Continued from Page D

(Continued from Page D The Democrat yesterday, Commis- sioner Tone said that checks would be mailed by cities, with Hartford's being sent first, New Haven second; and other cities of the state to be placed as they were reached. This left Waterburians in a state of un- certainty.
 Today, however, MT. Tone stated that such plans had been aban- doned, and the eligibles would be sent checks as their names were reached, regardless of their resi- dence.
 We are working two shifts here, and until Il o'clock at night trying to dig ourselves out from under" he said.
 Asks Patience
 T hope that people will be pa teint, and understand the extent Of our task" he continued.
 In lighter trend of thought, MT. Tone stated, "Mailmen don't have to ring bells when they deposit mail in mailboxes any more. Just as soon as they come in sight, there's a scramble for the door, and the ever ready question, Have you 8 check for me today'?"

very small amount of government funds during the fiscal year 1889.
 CD That the congress author ize and appropriate a sum not to exceed $15,000,000 for the con- struction of a number of new types of small vessels, such con- struction to be regarded as ex- perimental in the light of new de- velopments among navies; and to include the preparation of plans for other types of ships in the event that it may be necessary to construct such ships in the future.
 Prevent Profiteering
 I believe also that the time has come for the congress to enact legislation aimed at the preven- tion of proflteering in time of war and the equalization of the bur- dens of possible war. Such legis- lation has been the subject for many years of full study in this and previous congresses.
 It is necessary for all of us to realize that the unfortunate world conditions of today have resulted too often in the discarding of those principles and treaties which underlie international law and or der; and in the entrance of many new factors into the actual con- duct of war.
 Not Mere Coast Defense
 Adequate defense means that for the protection not only of our coasts but also of our communi- ties far removed from the coast, we must keep any potential enemy many hundred miles away from our continental limits.
 We cannot assume that our defense would be limited to one ocean and one coast and that the other ocean and the other coast would with certainty be safe. We cannot be certain that the con- meeting link-the Panama Canal would be safe. Adequate defense affects therefore the simultaneous defense of every part of the Unl- ted States of America.
 It is our clear duty to further every effort toward peace but at the same time to protect our na- tion. That is the purpose of these recommendations. Such protec- tion is and will be based not on aggression but on defense.

 Seven Point Program

to eQuallZe burdens or any pOSSIpIe war so far as possible.
 Seven Point Program
 MT. Roosevelt's 7-point defense program provided:
 l. Authorization of $8,800,000 army anti-aircraft additions, with $6, 800 000 to be spent in the next fiscal year.
 2. $450,00O to be appropriated for increasing the army enlisted reserve in the next fiscal year.
 3. Authorization for $6,080,000 for army dies and material equipment of which s5,000,000 would be spent in fiscal 1889.
 4. Spending of S2,000,000 to m- crease army munitions reserves.
 5. Authorization for a flat 20 per cent increase in naval strength - a program estimated by congress sional leaders to involve an ultimate total cost of $80o,0O0,000 over a long period.
 6. Authorization and appropria- tion for start of work in fiscal 1939 on. two additional capital ships and two additional cruisers. MT. Roose- welt did not estimate the 1889 cost of this program but said it would be very small".
 2. Authorization and appropria- ton of $15, 1000 900 for experimental naval vessels in the 1889 fiscal year.
 The new defense program would add S2O, O,800,000 to the nations 1889 military and naval cost, plus what ever might be spent in launching the proposed new dreadnaughts and cruisers.
 Tension in World Is High
 "Tension throughout the world is high" declared MT. Roosevelt, in his message to congress. Armies are fighting in the the War East and in Europe; thousands of civilians are being driven from their homes and bombed from the air.
 "As commander chief of the army and navy of the United States it is my constitutional duty to re- port to the congress that our na- tional defense is, in the light of the increasing armaments of other na- tions, inadequate for purposes of na- tional security and requires increase for that reason"
 The presidents message called for somewhat less in additional arms expenditures than had been antici- pated, although the long-term cost of the program as submitted by him was estimated at more than a b1- lion dollars.

ONLY ONE VICTIM
 AS SHIPS CRASH

:. Sandwich, Mass. Jan. 28 - (UP9 Coast guards searched for the lone victim today as two other fed eral agencies began an investigation to fix responsibility for the sinking of the sea-going tug Plymouth in a collision with the Collier Everett ill Cape Cod canal last night.
 z. Samuel Sprague, 37, of Maiden, an oiler on the Plymouth, still was missing more than 12 hours after the crash a quarter mile from the Massachusetts bay entrance to the canal. Sixteen other crew members were rescued after clinging to the tugs masts and stacks which re- mained above the surface.
 Y Attaches of the U. s. engineers office, whose jurisdiction includes the canal, and the U. s. bureau of marine inspection and navigation frankly were puzzled as they began their inquiry. They pointed out that the night sky was starlit and the canal shore brightly lighted at the time of the collision.

 May Go Way Back
 It will be slightly mysterious, an official observed, to see whether the Republican American can find" items from the year 1882, for in- stance, among those missing" by their public contention.
 The warrant sheets for December show that doctors, the Newington Home for Crippled Children, the Children's Community Center, Wa terbury Jewish Home for the Aged. Gaylord Farm Sanitorium, Lincoln House Association, are among the accounts unpaid by the controller. Thousands of dollars are due land- lords, stores furnishing food for well fare recipients.
 Warrant sheets for January are, of course, incomplete. Nine pages showing payments of several hun- dred thousand dollars, preponder- antly for bonds and interest charges, were offered by MT. Purcell. Trans fer of city business was graphical ly shown as relates to the political patronage, however.
 Payments Itemized
 These payments are itemized and, when the controller again makes available his of1lce to the citizen" from The Democrat. there will ap- pear the listing of these transfers in The Democrat. It will be shown that the crusade" presently finding the controllers office the smear center of the Republican-American long delayed attack, has basis other than the purport of the Good Gov- ernment Association of Waterbury is committed to by its published statement.

 Walter McCausland, spokesman for the company, shouted to the workers below:
 Come on up, boys. It's too late. We're giving up the battle"
 The workmen, who had been in danger of slipping from the ice into the gorge, climbed to the banks. Minutes later, the span broke away cleanly from the approaches on the American and Canadian sides, and tumbled below.
 With the removal of its greatest obstacle, the ice started moving slowly down the gorge, carrying pieces of the steel wreckage.
