Personal Popularity Rather Than Setups
 May Decide Battle
Unusual Turn of Events Noted as Candidates Increase Claiming Delegates Previously Pledged-NO
 Secret Sessions Says Chairman

ly is in the battle for the nomina- tion.
 Attorney John F. McLinden, like- wise shunted aside in some reports, now stands as a favored son of a group which has played part in the harmony movement" of Demo- cratic State Chairman J. Francis Smith.
 There are Attorney Patrick Healey, acknowledgedly a strong candidate; Attorney Vincent A. Scully, who is certain of consider able support; Attorney John L, Gaffney, close to Chairman Walter E. Monagan, Sr, permanent chair man of the convention, who today had sent out credentials to dele gates, 41 in Waterbury, two each in Wolcott and Middlebury.
 Howard Mentioned
 There are Attorney Harry F. Spellman, Attorney Michael V. Blansfleld, the latter chairman of the state convention delegates; Clerk John J. Howard, longtime employe in the probate court, who has favorable consideration from Judge Dennis J. Slavin.
 There are Attorney Francis Me- Donald, not mentioned often in the list but understood to be con- sideration of some leaders of the convention; Attorney William K. Lawlor. believed to be Sen. George T. Culhane's choice" in the earlier voting now said to have about two delegates of personal backing but giving way to Attorney McLin- den.
 Roll Call
 Some have brought to the atten- ton of The Democrat the state statute relating to procedure of conventions which requires that 1-3 of the delegates of convention may demand a roll-call vote. This would mean that IS of the delegates at the Friday night session could require the chairman to have all delegates list their choices publicly. And this, 1t seemed today, might be the eventual procedure after the second or third ballot. for the con- vention is likely to see at least that many ballots, 1t was remarked.
 Should there by twelve active candidates with some support from the 45 delegates, then 1t would re- quire one delegate and one "escon- der" to place before the convention that many names, "a majority" or 24 votes. It will be necessary for the successful candidate to have 23 delegates to nominate, by the adopt ed unit rule"
 Speculation
 Thus, the convention, with Attor- neys Pasternak and Green, the lat ter secretary of the voters commit tee and high in the council of the harmony" move, entering the lists today finds problematical major ity choice within the first two or three ballots. That second" or third" choice candidate may win the nomination is not considered so much the probability as that one of the leading contenders today may

Stokes. A large number of local members of the state group will attend the organizations annual outing.

have second" or third" choice delegates sufficient to insure the nomination.
 Whether that will be Attorney Healey, with his known strength, or Judge Mascolo, or Attorney Mo- Linden. with his reported support of the Culhane segment, makes the race one without precedent in con ventions of this type. The answer to all questions lies, of course, with the delegates, and the voters of Waterbury can draw conclusions of their own from the list of the Waterbury delegates, as follows:

The death of Patrick Cardinal Hayes, spiritual father to millions of Roman Catholics and head of the largest and wealthiest arch diocese in the country, accustomed the most impressive public and private mourning In recent New York history. Flags were half- masted on city buildings as Mayor LaGuardia ordered official mourn ing. Apparently endless thousands of people thronged to St. Patrick's Cathedral, where, as pictured above, the body of the Cardinal rested in the center aisle before the main altar. At right, kneeling in solemn prayer, are shown some of the mourners who filled the vast cathedral to pay their re- spects to the memory of the churchman whose many benefac- tions caused him to be called the Cardinal of Charity"

POPE DEPLORES
 'NATIONALISM'

castel Gandolfo, Sept. 7-(UP)- The Pope deplored exaggerated Nationalism" again today in speech to 400 teachers of the Cath olic action organization of laymen.
 He deplored international and national press comment on the re- cent Fascist credo.
 "This comment is big, grave error which reaches the first steps of hitting at Catholic doctrine" he said.
 The Pope explained it is errone- ous to say he recently discussed Ra- cialism, which resulted in anti Jewish measures.
 We spoke only about exaggerat- ed Nationalism, which does not unite people but pitches them one against another" he declared. Speaking firmly, he continued:
 We do not want to make 1t question of. Racialism or not Ra- cialiEm It recently was said that the Pope had talked much of Racialism when instead he spoke only of exaggerated Nationalism."

Who has the delegates? That's the question which is, puzzling some- thing like a dozen candidates for the Democratic nomination for judge of probate court today on the eve of the probate convention Friday night at 8 o'clock at the aldermanic chamber, city hall.
 Among the "new" candidates, compromise" or willing to serve", have been added today Attorneys Irving W .Pasternak and Harold C., Green, swelling the list of potential judges to something more than the dozen named earlier.
 No Secret
 Word from Chairman Thomas F. Mccarthy today is that the conven- ton will not be an executive ses- sion. Chairman Mccarthy re-
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-09-07

pudated reports that the caucus a week ago Monday night was "se- cret". saying that it was just a question of space in the probate crnrt and that parliamentary rules allowed the delegates some leeway as to physical abilities to serve.
 So, today, there are many candi- dates, some with delegates who ap- parently arc serving two masters" inasmuch as the lists shown to friends by one and another candi- datc seem realistically familiar as compared with lists shown by other candidates. Which means that the probate convention is likely to de- velop into a dog fight" to quote one of the officials concerned with It's being and direction.
 Denies Report
 Judge Edward Mascolo, reported earlier to have been engaged in an understanding with ono segment of the delegates, told The Democrat yesterday that he has mo under standing" that he feels that he would be a strong candidate on the ticket this fall, and that he definite
