inspection laws, have obtained nationwide attention.
 Public Opinion
 Just how accurately Senator Lonergan has interpreted the wishes of his State and of the Nation generally on important is- sues is emphasized by comparison with a recent report by the Insti- tute of Public Opinion which, with reasonable accuracy, has deter mined the trend of public opinion throughout the Nation on various subjects. Of all subjects charted on the summary of the Institute, Senator Lonergan's vote, or his expressed opinion on the same subjects, before and after the polls were taken, are in conform ity with the expressions of the majority of the people tabulated in each poll. This was particularly true in the New England area where, even on the Court issue, he was able to interpret the views of the people with unusual accuracy.
 Although he is a member of the Jefferson political school of thought, Senator Lonergan is constructive progressive, who be- lieves that many features of the old order of things have passed forever and that we are building new economic structure in Amer ica. Legitimate business can be protected and also the welfare Of the masses advanced, he contends.
 "A man is entitled to the fruits of his efforts and fair return on invested capital" Senator Loner- gan said. Men are equal under the law but not as to physical and mental equipment, industry, thrift and aptitude. The doctrine of let merit be the measure of the man under just rules should prevail in America"
 Employment Problems
 Senator Lonergan believes that the nations greatest social prob lem at the present time is that of increasing employment, and pro- viding for increased recreational facilities throughout the land to occupy usefully those who are now working shorter hours as a result of reforms in industry. Dur ing his entire service in the house and Senate he has worked hard for a system of unemployment in surance and old-age pensions for those who are unemployed. The program for these reforms, and believes that future happiness and security of the aged and un- employed should result.
 Senator Lonergan also believes in low rate of interest and that one of the most important steps to be taken toward recovery is a scaling of private debts.
 The Senator's diversions are walking, swimming, fishing and boating--in which he is frequent ly joined by Mrs. Lonergan and their four daughters.

NEW Y CAMPERS
 TAKE FIRST TESTS
Swimming, Boating Trials Held at Smiths Fond for
 First Year Youngsters

Carl Martin, director of the Y. M. C. A. boys camp al Smiths pond, WatertoWn, reported last night that the new campers yesterday passed their boating and beginners swim ming tests, while the other campers engaged in variety of pursuits. Those who passed boating tests were Edward and John Dwycr and Edmund Blcich. Those who passed the beginners tests in swimming were James Tripp, Theodore Green burg, Edward DWycr, Earl Gay, Donald Langlais Rupert Andrews and Jay Albert.
 Last night the l937 letters, dug up on Wednesday, were read at the individual camp fires of the various tents. These camp fire sitsc are to be made permanent for the rest of the season, and the boys will have to go to work to make them so.
 The campers have shown special interest in craft shop work and in the nature study class. Despite some chilly night, the boys have not been uncomfortable, az the camp is well stocked with blankets. Dur ing the days, on the other hand, IL has been warm enough so that the campers have mostly stripped down to jerseys, and swimming has proved popular.
 Tonieht's program will include boxing matches, in which repre- scntatlvcs fthc various tents will contend.

amendment to enable the Federal Government and State and local governments to tax the income from securities issued by each which are now exempt. The Sen ator prepared an exhaustive re- port on this subject for the Sen- ate and this information was recently requested by members Of a House Ways and Means sub- taxing securities now exempt. In the Seventy fifth Congress the Senator introduced measure to prevent the retroactive taxation of municipal and state employees under decisions of the Supreme Court implying that such tax can now legally be collected by the Federal government.
 Water Pollution
 One of the greatest crusadeS of his political career was begun when Senator Loncrgan under took to pass law establishing Federal assistance and control to abatc water pollution throughout the United States. Progressing under the slogan that I've must destroy pollution or .it will destroy us, the Senator soon had nation wire interest and support. As d measure affecting the public health and fish and Wildlife, and conservation generally, 1t gained importance in rank with many economic and social issues that have been commanding the nations attention. In his fight for a remedy for pollution, Senator Lonergan's statesmanship rose to it's height for he met the begin ming much opposition from groups throughout the country who can influence votes. The Senator often said in this fight he planned the health Of men, women and chil- dren of the Nation, and the pro- lection of our natural resources, above the self-intcrests of few who do not want to be inconven- fenced by water pollution control measures. Here again Is the mark statesmanship.
 Flood control on the Nations waterways, and particularly on the Connecticut river has been d major objective of the Senator during his thirteen years of Con- grcss. Many Improvements to navigation, and to prevent floods, have already been made, and the SeVcnty-fourth Congress authr- izcd an extensive flood control program.
 Social Security
 Senator Lonergan's long lcgisla- tive record shows that he was active in almost all important legislation of Congress. He has been especially active in aiding taxpayers, industries, insurance companies, and in advocating social security and labor protec- tive measures He presented a special study 10 Congress on the budget and fiscal conditions in the United States, Great Britain and other foreign countries The Senator is also advocating an amendment to the Constitution of the United States providing that the electorate shall vote directly on future proposed changes in the Constitution.

Thompson Asks Time
To Study Charges

Declaring he does not know the
details of charges against the
Fidelity Investment Association,
filed by the SEC, Col. Carmi A.
Thompson, president Of the con-
Germ, was in Washington today.
Pointing out that he had been
advised the action was merely an
order to show cause why the
prayer of the bill should not be
granted, Colonel Thompson said:
"Our company is supervised
by the various State authorities
where we do business and we
have enjoyed a tremendous
growth within the last few years.
1--WE are not registered under
the SEC, but this agency has,
nevertheless, been investigating
us along with practically all
other investment concerns, and
I presume have concluded that
they should in some measure
regulate our activities.
when a study is made of the
bill of complaint and the order
to show cause, a further state
ment will be made"
