 Kopplemann cancelled speaking engagement to make the New York trip, and, late last night on his re- turn, was quoted as stating:
 "Of course it would not be proper to quote the chief executive, but ] will say that am now certain that we of the New Deal will win over- whelmingly."
 Friends of Rep. Kopplemann have been urging the president to extend the New Deal purge of conservative elements in the Democratic party to include Sen. Lonergan.
 Connecticut political observers close to the Lonergan-K Kopplemann battle, believed the president had tc make difficult decision in the Con- necticut situation.

 PACANISM SPREAD
Rev. John Ambot of Hart= ford LasheS FanatiCal
 Patriotism

Hartford, Aug. 22.-Back from a three months trip through Europe, Rev. John J. Ambet, pastor of the Holy Trinity church, Sunday in an interview lashed at the "fanatical propaganda of new Paganism" now rife in Germany and Austria.
 Patriotism, completely unchecked, reigns in the place of all deeper spiritual life for most of the popu- lation, Father Ambot said. He charged that the spread of the Catholic faith was being discouraged and that several institutions and Catholic seminaries had been closed by Hitlers henchmen. Father Am bot, however, said that there were no prosecutions of Catholics or Catholic clergy.
 Victory for the Catholics was pre- dicted by Father Ambot who said that the quiet and immovable strength with which they clung to their convictions would defeat Hit- ier's attempts to discourage religion and substitute in it's place a fanatical worship for the Germanic state.
 Father Ambot left New York May IA on the "Brittanic" and returned August l6 on the "Aquitania. With New York pilgrimage party he visited the Eucharistic Congress in Budapest, Hungary, late in May.
 He also returned to the land of his birth, Lithuania, which this summer celebrated the twentieth anniversary of It's independence. Father Ambot, who visited the country in 1920. said he was amazed at the progress that has been made in the last 18 years. Then 1t was miserable" he said, land now 1t is a contented, happy little agricul- tural country"
 Father Ambot's trip took him through France, Germany, Hun gary, Czechslovakia, Poland, Lith- uania and Latvia.
 He was honored at a testimonial dinner celebrating his return Sum- day afternoon. About 300 parishion. CTS and clery from all parts of the state attended. Father Ambot de- scribed his trip.
 Among the speakers who palQ tribute to Father Ambot's long record in the Catholic clergy and who expressed pleasure on his re- turn were the following:
 Mayor Spellacy, Dr. M. Vincent Mikolanis, Rev. John Novickis, rec- tor of the Marianopolis College in Thompson; Rev. Joseph J. Valan- ticjus, Waterbury; Rev. Matthew A. Pankis. New Haven Rev. Anthony A. Wuskell, New Britain; Rev. Vim cent P. Karkauskas, Ansonia; Rev. Joseph V. Kazlauskas, Bridgeport; and Rev. Vincent Puidoskas of Westfield, Mass.

 AT CHAIRMAN
Terms Upson's Methods in Primary Preparations
 UnspOrtsmanlike

A true sportsman or a loyal Re- publican would not use the methods resorted to by Town Chairman J. Warren Upson in his preliminaries Q the primary elections slated for tomorrow, according to President John McHugh of the Irish Repub- dcan club.
 With reference to MT. Upson's ac- Mon in discarding four states of candidates in the primaries MT McHugh commented: There is no doubt in my mind that MT. Upson dgured he didn't have a chance in primary battle and decided to ake 8 chance with weapons true lportsman or a loyal Republican sould not use. :"
 His complete statement follows:
 Some time ago MT. Upson was referred to as the Frankenstein of the Republican Party and I have personally stated that MT. Upson was looking to be the Dictator of the Republican party. So as Al Smith used to say let us look at the Record.
 "Mr. Upson's attitude in discard ang ballots duly selected by electors in the districts is positive proof of the Dictatorship methods that Mir Upson and MT. Taller had decided on previous to the time they were exposed in the newspapers by the different loyal Republican voters of Waterbury. There is no doubt in my mind that MT. Upson figured he didn't have chance in primary battle and decided to take a chance with weapons true sportsman or a loyal Republican would not use. because of his office as Town Chairman. How he expects to help the Republican party by the tactics ho is using is hard for me to see. I certainly would never want to be a candidate on the state ticket from governor down to the smallest off, eice there will be on the ticket if I had to depend on MT. Upson as the head of the Republican party in city as large as Waterbury. Should MT. Upson get away with what he has planned maybe there won't be a candidate for governor on the Republican ticket"

WHY WHISKERS?

/ don't know why whiskers on a
man should add certain dignity to
his appearance, but the fact remains
that it does. Perhaps that is one
reason why the smooth faced fathers
of today complain that their children
do not show them the sane respect
that today's parents showed their IA
theirs. In my fathers day, no doctor
in our town was without whiskers of
some sort. The only lawyer who was
clean shaven was no great success in
our town although he moved to New
York later on and in lime, became
one of the greatest constitutional
lawyers in the country But I would
not have it deduced from this that the
plus or minus of whiskers has any
relationship to a lawyers knowledge
of constitutional law, for a few men
in the legal profession could boast OF
