Revenue Diversion !.
Blamed For Mishaps
Receipts From Tax on Gasoline Used For Other Pur-
poses, Hazards Permitted to Exist

Detroit, oct. 1S-Holding that
nothing permanent In the way Of
highway safety can be accomplished
until diversion Of gasoline tax reve-
nue. Is ended, members Of the Amer
lean Trucking Association, Inc, are
planning vigorous action against
such practices at their fifth nation
al convention opening October 81
In this city.
The convention will be attended
by heads Of leading trucking con-
Germs all over the country. Promis
nent speakers will include w. J.
Cameron Of the Ford Motor COM
pany and Paul q. Hoffman Of Stude-
baker corporation.
Wantom Disregard
Members Of the Alta. consider
gasoline tax diversion a "wanton1,
disregard of human Nfe," pointing
out that narrow, winding roads, in
adequate sight distances, sharp
curves, steep grades, unguarded
bitches, unfinished shoulders and
similar conditions constitute haz-
ards to human life which can be
removed only by the expenditure Of
money.
The funds necessary to remove
such hazards will be available If
gas tax diversion Is stopped, men,
bers assert.
The organization has accumulated
data revealing striking correla-
ton between diversion Of gasoline
tax revenue and the death rate
from automobile accidents.
This data shows that two-thirds of
the states In which the motor We
hicle death rate exceeds that OF
the country as whole are states
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1938-10-13

in which gasoline tax diversion is
practiced.
Members point out that roads to-
day are behind the development Of
the vehicles which use them and as
sert that it Is dishonest, discrimina-
tory and economically ynsound to
permit gasoline tax diversion to
continue in the face Of such q situa-
ton.
Over One Billion
The amount of money that has
been diverted to date is far in ex-
cess Of a billion dollars 1t is
claimed. A.T.A. members say this
sum is sufHcient to build q dozen
super-highways clear across the
country.
In most cases, they say, this
money has been diverted to nom
productive work. resulting In harm
to the entire economic swstem. Tens
Of thousands of men have been kept
out Of gainful employment who
would otherwise be self-sustaining.
The organization maintains that
there is only one justifiable excuse
for taxing gasoline and that is to
build roads and that If roads are
not to be built with motor revenue,
then the tax should be repealed.
Attention is called by the organi-
zation to the example set by Califor-
mia, Michigan, New Hampshire and
Alabama, which will vote this fall
on constitutional amendments pro-
hibiting diversion Of gasoline tax
revenue.

the present situation TO the recent
European crisis when President
Roosevelt appealed to the countries
concerned to settle the controversy
without war, and Mrs. 0oldstein
described the work Of the Hadassah
towards establishing q Jewish home
land in Palestine.
DR.. walker and Mr.. Crosby dis
cussed the situation as they had
observed it abroad and the former
remarked that Britain was inclined
always to keep its word, thus de-
precating possibility that now a
pledge providing for continuance OF

At the meeting Of the Senior
Hadassah yesterday at waterbury
Hebrew Institute, the mandate
abandonment was principal theme
of discussion.

Waterbury joined the nationwide
protest against abandonment Of
Britain's mandate over Palestine
last night when several hundred
persons attended a mass meeting at
Beth FL synagogue where a number
Of speakers, including Congressman
]. Joseph Smith, voiced opposition
to the proposal.
This country, 1t was pointed out,
has the right under q covenant
signed by the British government
In 1924, to appeal against Britain's
projected withdrawal In the Holy
Land. The United States, it was
stressed, must undertake moral and
humanitarian obligation to try its
utmost to protect oppressed minor
tiles throughout the world.
Abandonment by Britain Of its
mandate would mean hating Of
Jewish emigration to the Holy Land
and speakers charged Hitler and
Mussolini with stirring up friction
between the Arabs and the Jews in
Palestine, remarking that termina-
ton OF the mandate would be
another victory for the unjust"

CURRENT TREND IN
State Politics
By EDWARD<J. RYAN

Darien, House majority leader IN
1887 and generally regarded as
an outstanding candidate for
speaker In 1889 was the high
light Of the Republican caucuses
held throughout the state Tues
day.
Don't be surprised II there are
o number Of lawsuits underway
Immediately after the state cleo.
tions. You are going to heat
some pretty personal remarks be.
tween now and November 8th, on
the part Of the politicians.
The governors legislative coun-,
sci is completely eliminated.
Senator Gaynor e. Brennan Of
Stamford was defeated for re-
nomination to the state senate
and Judge Raymond J. Devlin Of
New Haven and Rep. John D.
Thoms Of Waterbury were not IN
the field, and Rep. Swayne Of
Darien failed OF be renominated.
Former State Senator John
Lynch Of West Haven looked for
and got the Republican nomina-
: ton TO the lower house. This
game Of politics A screwy, II you
ask me. First o man Is o sena-
tor, he 10 recognized as party
leader, he Is considered . % called
Power" In the organization, and
he accepts the nomination for
representative. Most all Of the
old timers are on the down grade,
though. II won't be long now.
No sir.
Republican candidate Roy Rice
Is busy lining up support for his
campaign to knock off the con-
gressional election and J. Joseph
Smith at the same time. Rice
Is hoping the Independent Demo-
Gratis keep their word and cut
Smith.
The Socialist party IN Water
bury will poll the greatest vote I'm
their history this fall. This may
help the Democrats and II may
hurt them, Il will all depend on
where the Socialist vote will come
from.
John Tobin Is perhaps one Of
the biggest hearted Democrats IN
the City Of Waterbury, he GER
tainly is the biggest hearted law
yer. I saw him passing out ten
cent cigars at the Democratic town
convention, and Tobin wasn't
looking for any office, either.
The odds on the senatorial
election In the 18th district are
3 to I on Eddie Egan. In the 18th
district, II Is even money. The
odds, at the moment, on the cleo.
ton for judge Of probate are two
TO one on HeaIey. The Congress.
sional election calls for even
money The smart money 10 ON
the Democrats taking the city by
less than 5000.
High Sheriff Edward ]. Slavin
Of New Haven county will face
stiff opposition from Michael Nc
Govern, the Republican candi-
date for the office that Slavin
now holds. Slavin will run into
some headaches between now and
election day. Although UNDER
stand he can count on the vote
Of Robert Stone Of Waterbury,
who was the unsuccessful candi-
date for the Republican nomina-
ton.

The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1938-10-13

Well, you can sit back now and
listen to your radio for the next
four weeks, and take 1t from me,
all you will hear will be politics.
You will get politics for your
breakfast, dinner and supper.
You will hear one politician
calling the other politician nasty
names. There will be charges and
counter charges and all for YOUR
vote.
The conspiracy trials in Water
bury will be moved out Of the
city. Hugh M. Alcorn, special
prosecutor In the case is willing
10 have the trials moved to the
city Of New Haven, he would
prefer Hartford, however. Even
LitchfieId would suit him!
Don't let any one kid you that
the voters of this state aren't 60
ing to use their independence this
fall. The days Of the loud bally-
no are past and 50 are the days
Of the old line, street corner
politician.
Senator George T. Culhane,
running for reelection in the 18th
district just bet me SIS that he
will carry the district by ut least
$500 votes. And that Ii one bet
/ won't mind losing either.
The Independent Democrats,
this fall, viii not be very effec-
tive so far as the city Of Water.
bury Is concerned. My prediction
Is that Edward Egan will carry the
18th district by q comfortable
margin.
Atty. Patrick HeaIey, Democra-
tic candidate for Judge Of probate
will run way ahead Of his ticket
and he will be elected.
Republican leaders In the sd
district tell me that Judge w.
Harry Byrnes Of WATERFOWL viii
not carry a single town In the
district.
Chauncey Hutchins, the one
time uncrowned mayor Of Har-
wlnton, has had three strikes
called ON him and now he 10 out,
and i don't mean maybe. Hutch
ins, was o self-styIed county lead
er Of Litchfield county. He cam
paigned for Harry Morse of Itch.
field for high sheriff. Morse lost.
Hutchins campaigned for Thomas
Wall Of Torrington for congress.
Wall lost the nomination and last
but not least Hutchins campaigned
for himself In seeking nemina-
ton to the lower house Of the
legislature from the town Of Har.
winton and he failed.
The Democrats In Thomaston
are feeling very, very sick these
days. From what ! gather they
are looking around for q leader to
lead them. Which reminds me
Of the childhood poem Babes In
the Woods.
Claude Badger Of WOlcott, Re-
publican candidate for the state
senate from the 18th district, is
almost sure to be elected.
Edward Cohen. Waterbury, Re-
publican candidate for the lower
house, Is one of the most sincere
young Republicans have met In
this neighborhood. He Is q man
the Republican party can feel
proud or He has many friends
and he will make many more.
You viii hear considerably more
about Mr.. Cohen in the very near
future.

 The taxpayer wrote back to re- mind his friend that government officials always get harder and harder to deal with the longer they stay in office. Just think, he said, of sending a respectable citizen a letter threatening jail for over looking minor data.
