Mr.. Derrick said, "but this year
the decline is not so great"
Mr.. Derrick gave full credit to
milk campaign activities, initiated

showing considerable enthusiasm
over this practical farm relief"

Senator Elmer Thomas, the
paper-money expert from Okla
homa, goes farther.
"All Senators are hired hands, "
he writes his constituents, and
proceeds to list the numerous
WPA and PWA projects he has
obtained for the Sooner State.
AN EXPLANATION
IT am not urging, nor even
suggesting, that an inefficient
or misrepresentation be kept in
office" he says, but am say
ing that the districts and States
which make good selections re-
ceive the most from the Govern
ment at Washington"
He also devotes a line to eX,
pressing regret that we have not
been able to work out of the
worst depression in recorded his
tory"
Another money expert. Repre-
sentative Finly Gray CD Of 1ndi-
ana, takes two pages to list 100
radio stations carrying his weekly
addresses on "The Depression
Cause and Remedy" He writes
his voters that he will attack the
private bankers, manipulatorS,
financiers. the miSerS, Shylocks
and money changers.
II am resorting to the radio"
Gray declares, Ito call out the
minute men, to ring the bells,
send out the couriers and to
hang the beacon lights high for
an old-faShioned town meet

 Mark Anniversary
Corp. COyle Auxiliary Celebrate 18th Birthday With
 Special Program Tonight in Legion Home

Observance of the 18th birthday of the American Legion has been celebrated throughout the present week by all American Legion posts and auxiliaries throughout the coun- try and tonight Corp. Coyle post, oldest American Legion organiza- tion in Connecticut, will celebrate the anniversary with a program of motion pictures, entertainment, cards and refreshments. Members of the auxiliary will be guests at the legion home.
 Shortly after majority of troops of the American army in the World war were discharged, and before some of the American expeditionary force had returned from Germany and other service abroad, the Am erican Legion was formed. Since then it's membership has grown to approximately one million former soldiers and it has become one of the most unified organizations in the history of the country.
 The Corp. Coyle post celebration is in charge of the following con- mittee: Junior commander George Karnofsky, Adjt. Joseph Brenneis, Paul Stafstrom, Jay Comedian, Ray mond Walker, Chester Haude, Vic- tor Baker and John Wall, Mrs. Mae Birt heads the Vomen's committee.

TRADE HEARINGS
 ARE ADJOURNED
First Weeks Testimony Brought Opposition to
 Lower Tariffs

Washington, March 19-UP)- Government experts studied the testimony of spokesmen for labor and industry today, submitted on the proposed trade pact with Great Britain.
 The four separate hearings, con- ducted by the committee for re- ciprocity information, covering about 5000 items upon which con- sessions may be sought adjourned yesterday until Monday.
 Virtually all the witnesses who testified during the first weeks hearings are opposed to lower American tariff barriers. Bitterest opposition came from representa- tives of the eastern cotton and woolen textile industry.
 Among the items to be discussed Monday are textile, knitting and braiding machinery, mica, china, glass, and earthen ware, tiles, scien- tific instruments, bicycles and parts, aluminium and alloys, silverWare, fats, oils, wool grease, soaps and glycerine.
 Labor union representatives pro- tested any reduction in import rates yesterday. Solomon Barkin, New York, representing the textile work CTS organizing committee and Fly man Blumberg of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, both committee for industrial organiza- tion affiliates, and H. B. Moiles of the Card Clothing Machine Oper- ators' Union, Oxford, Mass, con- tended that increased textile im- ports would jeopardize American hours and working conditions.
 But Barkin said that reduced ta- riffs on jute yarn, the bulk of which is imported, would not injure American interests. He said that his union was maintaining wages "by force of organization" and ex- pressed fear that increased imports would bring additional pressure on employers to reduce wages, increase hours, or both.

MERRY BANDIT IS
 ALSO CLEVER ONE

Boston, March 19. - (UP) - A bandit who eluded police and val unteers in merry chase after a $70O holdup at the Dawson Ale Company's Back Bay garage last night was still at large today.
 After lining up 10 employees against wall in the Dawson office, he ordered one of them to call the police" and fled in a company car with cash box.
 His erstWhile victims pursued in their own cars. The bandit and his pursuers had circled the block twice when two police cars joined the chase.
 Then the bandit parked his car in an alley, ducked into an apart ment building, ran to the roof and leaped to the roof of an adjoining building.
 Discarding his raincoat and hat, he calmly descended the stairway and strolled from the building, pass ing several policemen. At gunpoint he persuaded Edwin R. Bryant, parking his automobile nearby, to drive him to Jamaica Plain. There he pushed out Bryant and drove off. Bryant notified police, but they arrived too late to find a trace of the bandit.
