Registrars Derwin, Taller. City Clerk Fitzmaurice, Judge Mascolo Called SESSION TODAY BEGAN HOUR LATER-ll A. M. Release of County Jail Prisoners Still Being
 PrObed

Tally sheets and record books of the 1887 municipal election - four officials of the office of the Registrars of Voters - City Clerk John P. Fitzmaurice = and Judge Edward Mascolo of city court, were called before the Wa terbury Extraordinary Grand Jury today as the probe into the last election continued more vigorously than ever.
 The grand jury proceedings were interrupted early this afternoon when Special Prosecutor Hugh M. Alcorn descended to the second floor of the court house to confer with Judge Ernest A. Inglis of Superior Court. The conference ended shortly before l o'clock.
 Neither MT. Alcorn nor Judge Inglis would give any indication ot the purpose of the conference. Judge Inglis halted trial of a criminal case to meet with the special prose- cutor in chambers.
 Mascolo In Conference
 Belief that the conference was in regard to testimony by Judge. Mas colo was strengthened when. few minutes after MT. Alcorn and Judge Inglis ended their meeting. the city court jurist descended from the grand jury room and engaged ill conference with Judge Inglis and MT. Alcorn. This conference lasted until 1:25 D. m. The jury had re- cesSed for lunch at this time.
 After the second conference MT. Alcorn, quizzed by reporters, sad only: "I have not one word to say" It is believed that Judge Mascolo may have brought some legal ques- ton as to testimony by him.
 Hearing in Open Court
 Possibility was seen that Judge Mascolo might have declined to tes- tify. In this connection, Judge Inglis told The Democrat that any hear ing on a mans constitutional rights would have to be held in open court, but that 'preliminaries' to such hearing might be discussed in chambers. He would not state whether or not such a hearing would be held.
 Registrars Appear
 Albert O. Faller, Republican, and John T. Derwin, Democrat, together with their assistants, Michael J'Anthony and Michael Bergin were ordered to bring before the jury 6 book showing the method employed by them in making up an election list.
 City Clerk Fitzmaurice brought with him the 40 tally sheets used at

Ambassador Kennedy Silent On Presidency
Also Refuses Comment on RumOr His Mission at LOn= don Is Completed Returns to U. s. to See Son
 Graduate, Also to Report to Roosevelt
BY FREDERICK KUH United Press Staff COrrcSpOndent)

London, June 15-(UP) - United States Ambassador Joseph P. Ken nedy sailed from Southampton aboard the Queen Mary today re- fusing to comment on reports of a movement to make him a presiden- tial candidate in 1940.
 The ambassador also refused to discuss speculation that his mission to London had been completed, if certain obstacles to the projected Anglo o-American trade agreement can be removed by the time he reaches Washington, and that he might therefore resign.
 OStensibly the ambassador was making the trip home to attend his sons graduation from Harvard. However, he was to report to Presi- dent Roosevelt the impressions he has gathered during three and one half months service here.
 Kennedy has refrained from dis cuSsing the advice and information he may offer MT. Roosevelt, but persons here who have some basis for guessing, if not knowing, sur mise that among other things the ambassador will try to "sell' Bri- tain's new government and explain and possibly defend Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's efforts to make deals with Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.
 Kennedy was represented as not favoring the beliefs of Winston Churchill and other influential con- servatives as well as the big labor and small liberal parties which con- tend that an armed defensive alli- ance of the more Democratic coun- tries to restrain Germany, Italy and Japan is the better method of re- ducing war dangers.
 The tenor of what Kennedy may in part tell MT. Roosevelt and other American government leaders might be deduced from what the ambas- sador himself has described as his views on several occasions.

Tumult and Shouting Are Over;
So Now What Does II All Mean?
For Months to Come the Results Will Be Subjected
to Measurement; More Thinking and Less Emo
ton Seems the Rule; M iddle Class in Revolt.
BY WILLIAM BRUCKART
National Press Bldg, Washington. DC.

More Thinking and Less
Emotion Seems to Be Rule
Looking over the whole picture,
as the colors and the outlines now
exhibit themselves, one who favors
good government of a sound and
lasting character cannot help hav-
ing his faith renewed. OF course,
the political pendulum swings back
and forth That is to be expected.
But, to me, there has appeared on
the horizon a new level of political
thought. Perhaps I should not say
that it is entirely new; I should say
that it has been restored to its place
in American life. And that obser-
walton should be amplified with the
further statement that more think
ing and less emotion appears to be
the rule throughout the land. Abb
sence of hysteria, or reduction of
the scope of hysteria, always makes
for sounder and more constructive
conclusions That is why there IL
so little use for an analysis of mi
mute returns this year. The aspect
is too broad to hinge upon such de-
tail. =.
Probably, it can be said that the
vote was an expression against
waste and extravaganza, against
corruption of the electorate by use
of public moneys, such as went on
among relief workers and for which
we ought always to be ashamed; it
probably can be said that 1t was a
vote against blank check appropria-
tions, or against government mess
ing into every phase Of human en-
deavor, or against many other item
Of policy in the New Deal. and if it
were so said, it would be true to 4
degree, everywhere. But we are
concerned with the sum into which
these several things have been add
ed.
Vote Discloses Revolt by
So Called Middle Class
The United States has been gov
erned by an expression of the will
of the majority. It is sound. It Is
the basis of republic. There has
been much criticism of President
Roosevelt on the basis Of his DOM
nation of government. It has been
said that he is the government be-
cause he has had such complete
control that even congress moveu
this way or that at his direction, in
the manner of puppets.
If those characterizations be true,
then it appears to me logical to
conclude that the late election was
something Of vote for government
by law and not by an individual or
