Third In Family

Elected President of the Scovill Manu-
featuring Company yesterday John H.
Goss becomes the third member of his
family to hold this high office. He sue
ceeds his brother, the late E. o. Goss,
who in turn had followed closely in his
fathers (the late Chauncey P. Goss)
footsteps as head of one of the great man.
ufacturing companies in the East. 1t is
notable tradition that John H. Goss car
ries on and one of which he can be ex-
tremelY- proud. He assumes the office, too,
after a career that has been charac-
terized by tremendous diligence and
accomplishment.
His knowledge of the vast business of
the enterprise of which he is now the
head is most complete. 1t was acquired
in the hard way as he worked his way
through the various phases of manufac-
turing in which the Scovill company has
existence here in Waterbury. With
background that is completely filled with
Scovill Co. history and with the broaden
ing influences of associations in local,
state, and national endeavors Mr..
Goss comes to his presidency perfectly
equipped
Waterbury is proud to extend its con-
gratulations to this prominent manufac-
turer and to the company he represents.
To him in the busy rush of his day it will
be but another interruption, long enough
: to erase Vice-President and General
Manager and to substitute President. To
relatives, friends, and well-wishers it will
be the elimination of long and honora-
BILE career in the industrial world.

Legislative Suggestions

From now until January one of the
ausiest state agencies will be the Con-
scticut Legislative Council. A good
any citizens are unaware OF its ex-
is;ence; others aren't particularly con-
cerned with it's existence. Yet it will
perform a monumental task this year
and probably 60 unthanked for it. It's
members are. unpaid, being allowed
merely mileage to and from their homes.
Once in while some press representa-
tive gets interested in the activities OF
the council and inquiries into them. Then
and only then do we get an insight INTO
the type of work the council is doing.
It's prime purpose, for which it was
was actually created, was to dig up leg
islation to be acted upon by the General
Assembly. It wasn't intended to supplant
the legislators, of course, but it was
created to aid the legislators in prepar-
ing for their consideration pertinent
measures which seems of necessity to be
vital to the state at large. It deals, too.
with our state government as it may be
controlled by legislative action Reforms
are proposed, codified, and put into such
form that they may be given sensible
attention of lawmakers.
There are always changes wanted in
our laws - additions made, something
chopped off. It's the job of the Legislative
Council to take heed of such requests and
if they are proper ones to present them
to the Assembly. A general program of
legislative procedure will also be drawn
up for the 1889 Assembly, which may or
may not be followed, the latter course
being the logical one if other legislative
years are any criterion. We don't sup
pose right now the Council has included
in it's program statute preventing a
person being both state legislator and
state executive at one and the same time
It ought to be law, for the prospect OF
one man holding down two or more state
Jobs at one and the same time doesn't
please today with Democrats in power any
more than it did some years ago when
Republicans ruled the roost

Giving Justice a Chance

Lawyers, acting through the American
Bar Association, are starting move
ment to simplify judicial procedure and
speed up trials in state courts. A COM
mittee, after studying exciting condi-
tionS, made five recommendations along
those lines at the opening session of the
present convention. It suggested first
that hearings be held in advance of trials
in order to trim cases down to essentials,
marrow the issues, shorten and speed
trial hearings and avoid trial in cases
where it is not useful"
A second recommendation urged addi-
tional authority for the trial judge,
enabling him to take part in examination
of jurors and to advise juries on the weight
and credibility of evidence. Other pro-
posals would eliminate the unfit from jury
esrvice, avoid political entanglements i'm
proce the laws of evidence and set up better
methods of selecting judges. Not all these
suggestions require new legislation. Some
of them may be made effective merely by
the determination of trial lawyers and
judges to further justice with common
sense and efficiency.

Less Foreign Travel

American travel abroad was increas-
ing during the month of June, but taken
as whole over the first six months of the
year it was off about % per cent from the
year before. Two causes are evident for
this One was the recession in business
during the past winter, which left peo-
pie afraid to spend money on summer
pleasure which might be required by
serious need next winter. The other
cause is the increasing unsettlement of
Europe. Pictures of jewellers in the quiet,
rural districts of green and beautiful
England, practising the wearing OF gas
masks, do not lure the foreign visitor.
Another summer should see the first
cause growing less. And there is still
hope that the militaristic countries of
the Old World may come to their senses.
After all, 1t must be far pleasanter to
take dollars from travellers who part with
them gladly for the good times your
country offers, than to do without the
dollars of friendship ad dig up other
painful dollars for the dubious privilege
OF fighting harmless neighbors!

Delicate Sian

Late in July Baron Georg Franken-
stein, who had been for eighteen years
Austrian ambassador to Great Britain,
became British subject. Two days later
he was knighter by King George vi, be-
coming George Frankenstein. There
are said to be few, if any, presidents in
history for this particular royal honor.
1t is recognized as an indication of the
British governments regard for the man
himself. 1t is also tribute to the van
ished country Sir George formerly
represented.
Such tribute, paid IN so public way,
serves as rebuke to the Nazi regime
which woped Austria off the map of
Europe. So, too, was the waving of the
usual naturalization formalities in Franc
kenstein's case because "the circum-
stances were sufficiently widely KNOWN"
according to the British Home Minister.
The contest for power being walked
between the democracies and the totali-
tartan states is fought with seemingly
trivial actions as well as with diplomatic
conferences and armament races In
normal times this incident would have
had little Importance in England and
would scarcely have been newsworthy in
our own country.

Speaking at a Democratic gathering
in New Haven this week, one of the first
OF the large variety in the 1888 crop
Governor Wilbur L. Cross spoke on the
disruption of the Republican party In
no uncertain terms the Democratic chief
executive of the state brought home the
fact that the COP. in Connecticut is
at its wits end to produce combination
this fall that can make an appeal to the
public. Naturally this is going to be
difficult, because the Republicans must
overcome first organization difficulties.
The party is bit disarranged due to
many factors, but mainly due to the fact
that the sudden switch from one-man
control for nearly Is years to new line
up hasn't yet been accomplished All
sorts of forces and factions are cunning
for control With this situation it's hard
to work out unified program of nomina-
tons. So COP troubles mount as con-
vention dates near. Democrats need but
to solidify their forces to retain con-
troll of the entire state government.
