 Here pr. McConaughey pointed to Col. Thomas Hewes, Democratic nominee for lieutenant = governor and, further, the Republican candi- date remarked of lieutenant-d Cover nor Frank Hayes:
 Misses Chance
 Many of us were shocked that our governor associated himself in two political campaigns with Q man of this type. Many Of us were dis- appointed that our governor was not the first to seize the evidence which was available even before the trial, and thus, himself, be respon- sible for clearing up this scandal, The Democratic party Of this state has to assume responsibility for this man. He is not a figure who com- mands respect or sympathy and the party is blameworthy."
 Dr. McConaughey referred to flood damage and legislation but continued to avoid reference to the Merritt Parkway land scandals and arrests throughout the rest of the broadcast.
 Chairman Smith criticized the "generalities" of the Republican platform and remarked Of the Democratic pledge to the voters that

Political Blasts!
Republicans Prom ise, Democrats Achieve Declares State Ch air m an
 S m ith.

Two divergent views of the gen- eral standing of the two major par ties were presented to the voters of the state last night in radio hook ups. one was the attack of presi- dent James Lukens McConaughey of Wesleyan University, Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, on tho Democratic administration for the Waterbury grand jury affair with no reference to the Merritt Parkway grand jury arrests, which involved prominent 6. Q. D. leaders
 The other was the broadcast by Democratic State Chairman J. Fran els Smith in which he pointed to some major differences in the Dem- ocratic and Republican platforms but remarked, certain similarities, saying:
 "If imitation (of the Democratic platform) is the sincerest nattery, we must bow acknowledgement to our Republican opponents"
 0mlts Criticism
 Chairman Smith cited that the Republican platform omits criticism of Governor Wilbur L. Cross and his administration, or of the pro- gram that the Democratic party has advocated for several years.
 On the other hand, President Me- Conaughey, who some weeks before he was nominated endorsed the candidacy of Democratic United States Senator Augustine Lonergan, claimed that he, and other Republi- cans, had discussed for nearly e year the principles which the Republican party should adopt :" for It's platform.
 By inference, the Wesleyean presi- dent criticized Governor Cross when

 The nominee lives At Middlebury' which, with Wolcott and Waterbury comprise the probate district, prac. tees law in this city, and will ops pose Attorney Patrick J. Healey, Democratic nominee for judge oi probate, in the election.
 Acceptance
 Mfr. Lynch, in accepting the nomi- nation, remarked:
 My only interes. in thls has been to secure harmony within the Re- publican party. I think that has been the feeling throughout the party.
 "Our only interest has been to put up . candidate who can defeat the Democratic candidate, Our party had Q number of good candidates, any one of whom would have been able to do that. This contest was conducted with the greatest of good humor and l am sure that there has been no hard feeling, My feeling has been that 1t was not so important who was nominated SO long as we elect the one who was nominated, The Republican party has the great est opportunity 1t has had in many years to gain the probate court of-

 Seconding this nomination, Attor- ney Albert J. Bronsky remarked that Mir. doss will not be swayed by self seeking cliques in the General As- sembly; nor will he be looking for personal advantage, only the city's interest.
 No Commitments
 After the nomination was made unanimous, MT. doss was brought before the convention and he re- marked that he was new in politics but added that possibly this would be an advantage to the party and to the city because he has no commit- ments and will be interested only in Legislation for the general service of his district and the city.
