 Young G. o. P.
 Following survey of the list, the prominent Democrat who made the analysis" remarked that he has heard that this alignment of the Good Government Association into the voting districts is potentially a part of the pre-campaign activities of the Young Republican group currently affiliated with the Fair field County faction of J. Kenneth Bradley and Samuel F. Pryor, Jr., National committeeman. He said that reports had reached him of various district groups planning to open headquarters in sections of the city within the next few weeks.
 Citing figures to show the Re- publican minority in Waterbury "can never expect to win an elec- tion" without the aid of some other group or faction, the Democratic spokesman expressed belief that, following the advice" of Charles P. Taft to the effect that such an as- sociation as the Good Government group must ally itself with a poli- tical party to assure success" the Good Government Associations campaign for members" might be turned into a prediction cam- paign of the Waterbury Republi- cans.

Effective Monday, the personnel of the Waterbury fire department will be subject to a drastic tighten ing-up of regulations, which were released today by Thomas F. Me- Carthy, chairman of the board of fire commissioners. The regulations will be imposed to effect and maln- tain the highest possible plane of efficiency in the department.
 Hours, equipment, general ap- pearance, off-duty travelling, ana other incidentals will come within the scope of the regulations laid down.
 Chief Notified. Chief Thomas F. Cavanaugh has been supplied with a list of the new regulations, and these were to be printed today and posted in the va rious fire stations.
 "The working hours commencing Monday will be from 8 o'clock in the morning until o'clock at night for the day shift, and o'clock at night until o'clock in the morning for the night shift" said Commis- sioner Mccarthy today. He ex- plained that fremen would no long, CT have the privilege of leaving the fire station earlier than the ap- pointed time, simply by having their relief men report ahead of roll-call time.

Motorists Advised
 To Form Own Group
Automobile Association Independence of Insurance
 Company Proposed By Local Gasoline Retailers

Gasoline Bulletin, monthly publica- tion of the Waterbury Gasoline Re- tainers' association.
 Such an organization would pro- tect the motorist in many ways, says the publication. The article follows:
 Motorists in this state should start an organization of their own not connected with any insurance company. They should draw up their own bylaws and elect their own officers.
 Their slgoan should be "A square deal for all motorists"
 Nowadays, with all the "gip" art ists in the small towns just wait ing for out-of-town motorists to come through town so that they can arrest them for something or other there is crying need for some such organization to protect the motoring public against unfair practices in the small town courts. We find that once they get tangled up with the law in some small towns it makes no difference whe- ther or not the unfortunate car owner is guilty or not. He general ly pays up to get out of town as quickly as possible before the town figures out some other way to get the rest of his money.
 If the car-oWners were organized they could make arrangements with good lawyers to take the cases of the members. A reasonable fee could be charged and the motorist could feel that he had the moral support of the whole group to see that he got a square deal.
 Then too, in matters of new leg islation the Connecticut motorists could help themselves more easily if they were organized.

|ANT|-PARKING
 CAMP AICN ON
Police Waging No Quarter Campaign; City Treas.
 ury Beneiting

With hundreds of motorists hav- ing been obliged to pay $1 each for illegal parking in the past few weeks, the police campaign against violation of the city parking ordi- nances shows no signs of letting up. Police heads state that the cam- paign will continue indefinitely, un- til drivers realize that parking violations will not be tolerated in the city.
 Instructions given to members of the department several weeks ago are still in effect. At that time po- licemen were told to tag all park ing violators. They were directed particularly to tag cars parked on the left side of the street, parked double or parked so as to block driveways or bus stands. Officers were told that they would be held responsible for enforcement of the parking laws by men in their conn., mand.
 Since the instructions were issued the average daily total of tags has been 40 or whereabouts. On some days the number of tags has far exceeded that figure.
 Police say that effects of the campaign are already noticeable, in that drivers are showing much more care as to how and where they park their cars.
 Further changes in the parking regulations are still under study by Police Superintendent William J. Roach and Deputy Superintendent Daniel J. Carson.

IS VOTED
 FOR TOM MOONEY

Sacramento, Calf, March 12 - (UP)-The state assembly voted early today to extend a legislative pardon, whose legal status is ques- tionable, to Thomas J. Mooney, convicted San Francisco Prepared ness Day bomber. The vote came after two days of heated debate, and after Mooney sympathizers threatened to keep the assembly in session until a Laborite member could be brought by airplane from hospital in San Francisco to ob- tain his aye vote.
 Assemblyman Jefferson Peyser, San Francisco, told Assemblyman Paul Richie, San Diego, who spon- sored the pardon resolution, that he would change his vote to avert such action.
 The sick member was Melvin I. Cronin. Richie pointed out that Cronins voting record had been down the line" for labor.
 Peyser's decision came as the proposed pardon, which has no legal standing according to ruling of the state attorney general, received 40 favorable votes against 30 nays, with fl required for passage. The final vote was Al to 29.

Drastic Regulations Posted
 For Efficiency m Fire Circles
Acme telephoto

In the event of a general alarm every fireman, off-duty or on-duty, must be accounted for.
 No Exchange
 "Firemen will not be allowed to swap nights or days off without good reason and approval of the chief" said Commissioner Mccarthy. It is common knowledge that fire men have enjoyed the privilege in the past of being relieved from working with their regular shift for night, or day, provided a mem Der of the other shift doubled through for them. In the past only the permission of the commanding officer of the company was neces- sary.
 Commissioner Mccarthy also said today that a general check-up will be made, starting Monday, to ascer- tain if every fireman owns regula- ton equipment and uniform. Every fireman must have the proper equip ment and apparel" said Commis- sioner Mccarthy.
 The commissioner said that these rules were the highlights of the bull letin which was in the process of preparation for posting in the de- partment houses.
 No Surprise
 They do not come entirely as a surprise, in view of the activities of the commissioners during the past few weeks in checking the houses and men for efficiency, and cleanliness. At intermittent periods they would appear suddenly in the various fire houses, sound the tap per, and call all men on duty to the engine floor, ready for action. In some instances they have even or dered the department out on a short run, and caused them to lay line of hose and play water on an imag- mary fire. All these activities were timed.
 The meeting of the board of fire commissioners slated for Wednesday of this week, is expected to bring forth further developments, in line with appointments. No official would comment on this possibility, how ever.

 They boarded the North German Lloyd liner Bremen at 12:30 8. m., precisely the hour of sailing.
 Visitors had been sent ashore about 1925, and the gangplanks on the upper level of the ships pier were hauled in. Five minute pier an automobile sped through the en- trance to the lower level, where no outsiders are permitted.
 The Flyer and his wife dashed from the car to baggage gang plank that had been left up for them, and went immediately to their cabin. Only 8 few persons recogniz- ed them, and their names were not on the passenger list.
 When the ship was in the harbor, the North German Lloyd line an nounced that the Lindberghs were among the passengers, bound for their home in England. The line refused to amplify.

VIRGINIA VOTES SAFETY WALKS
 FOR HIGHWAYS
State in Forefront With Project to Protect
 Pedestrians
BY WALTER DUSTMANN United Press Staff Correspondent

Richmond, Va, March 12-CUP)- Sidewalks for congested crosscoun- try highways are Virginia's answer to the rapidly-mounting toll of pe- destrian deaths on the open road.
 Gov. James H. Price has signed, following unanimous passage by both houses of the general assem- bly,; bill authorizing the state highway commission to construct the walkways and sidewalks along state highways in an attempt to lessen fatalities to pedestrians, which have totaled more than $50 in the past three years.
 The walkways, which will be similar to city sidewalks along paved streets, will protect pedes- trians by keeping them off the highways proper and out of the range of speeding automobiles.
 Counties to Share Cost
 They will be built only at re- quest of county boards of commis- sioners, and each county must bear half the, cost of the costruction within its borders. Henry G. Shir- ley, state highway commissioner estimated the walkways would cost between $7,000 and $8,0OO mile" to build and would be "well worth 1t" in the saving of lives and in- juries.
 They are a safety measure, pure and simple" he said. Shirley add ed, however, that the highway sidewalks, built attractively along the major highways of the state would greatly enhance" the beau- ty of the roads, thus offering an added inducement to counties to apply for them.
 Program Meets With Favor
 Shirley expressed satisfaction over the program and said it was the intention of his department to give all possible cooperation in carrying it out.
 He said he expected most of the counties in the state with thickly- populated rural industrial areas to apply for the highway-sidewalks. Virginia, it is believed, is one of the first states to undertake a constructive program of this na- ture in an effort to reduce a spe- cific cause of highway fatalities. A related bill introduced in the as- sembly provided rigid speed limits on state highways and it was be- Ieved that the combination of the two measures undoubtedly would result in noticeable decrease in highway deaths in the state.
