Speeder On Safety

A. B. Jenkins, the "Iron Man" of the SpeedwayS, has decided to make tour of the eastern states in behalf of safe highways. Jenkins holds more endurance driving and speed records than any other man. He was the pioneer speed driver on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. He ex- poets next summer to challenge Captain George F. T. Eyston's land speed record of 357.5 miles per hour. He should be hero in the view of speed enthusiasts, young or old. He holds one record that any driv- CT should respect and seek to achieve. He has driven automobiles a total of 100000 miles without an accident. That gives authority to his list of suggestions for safe driving.
 "Be alert" says Jenkins. "Be master of your car at all times. Keep on your own side of the highway. Don't cut in. Don't attempt to pass when your vision is obscured. Keep your head in an emer- gency. If you've been drinking, keep out of an automobile. Don't speed in Reavy traffic. Be courteous to other drivers. Keep your car mechanically perfect" That covers everything Widespread prac- tice of such rules would come close to clearing streets and highways of all traffic accidents.

Our VoteIess City

Residents of the District of Columbia seem to be the only citizens who did not have a good time Nov. 8, Election Day. They have no vote. Congress governs the District. Washingtonians want to change this situation. Election Day was observed there as "day of humiliation and mourning" Black-draped and empty ballot boxes were set up on downtown street corners to emphasize the city's vote less status. Newspapers called attention to the fact that the District of Columbia has more population than any of eight states and pays more national taxes than any of 4 states, yet has no voice in the affairs of government.
 It is sad, and maybe something will be done about it some day. In the mean time, they have one great freedom. They can complain vigorously and show their dissatisfaction by outward signs as much as they like. There are plenty of dis franchised people in the world today who haven't these rights They might hold mock elections, too, which would prove their ability to handle ballots and to take sides on issues and candidates.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-29
French Sit-Downs

France, where the sit-down strike originated, has been having more trouble of that sort lately. It was especially ob- jectionable because the wave of "stay-in strikes" as the French call them, occurred in industries concerned with national de- fenSe. Thus not only were private prop erty rights concerned, but the very safety of the nation.
 The government therefore has been obliged to "crack down.. Premier Dala- dier, governing temporarily with emer- gency powers, sent orders to the heads of all "departments" in the country, cores bonding to our American states, to "put end immediately to factory occupations"
 It is obviously necessary to do that if France is to continue capable of self-gov- ernment. The same principle holds true, of course, in the United States, Great Britain and other democracies. Free countries where the principle of private ownership still prevails cannot allow any such confusion of ownership and sus- pension of property rights, and totali- tartan governments would not permit such local seizure and control by any group.
 Fortunately this issue, which first arose
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-29

Storm-wrecked areas of the state, par ticularly in the eastern section, are a bit puzzled over what they should do about valuation of property. They realize that changes will have to be made in grand lists, for property, like shore cottages, has been totally destroyed in many instances. Already State Tax Commissioner Charles J. Mclaughlin has notified assessors around the state to recognize the fact that much property had deteriorated in value due to storm depredations. How ever, the Commissioner pointed out that it should be property owners who should take the initiative. Those who have Suf- fered losses should be prepared to make them known to the proper tax officials, so that their property listings may be recti- fled: Failure to do so promptly may prove costly.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-29

New Britain seems to be doing pretty well with it's municipal golf course. We read in the Herald that during the season just closed $5,OOO profit was made. This represented an increase over last years return, which also was q profit, however. If cities like New Britain can show as good return as this on thcir municipal recreation fields, then there's hope for Waterbury. We've seen local reports that didn't compare with the Hardware City's, but we don't concede that Waterbury's course is any less popular because it hasn't proved gOld-mine.

Just a Bit Early

The flush of Raymond E. Baldwin's gubernatorial victory hasn't yet been dimmed one bit, yet his name is being nlaced forward as possible COP presl- dential candidate in 194O. Republican National Committeeman Samuel Pryor of Greenwich is the proposer of the states new governor. It comes rather unexpec- tedlv in view of the fact that MT. Bald win hasn't as yet taken office and no one knows what the events of the coming two years will bring him in the way of polltl- cal fortunes.
 Had the Republican candidates victory been an extremely clear-cut one or Ii MT. Baldwin had been acclaimed as the pro- ponent of a new form of state govern 1nent, we might expect boom of some sort, but we must confess that the Pryor boost is just bit overwhelming. We cant see where he has the "Stuff" to back It up. Maybe he will be able to boast 1n lS4O that he had foreseen just such events as transpire, but right now there's no need for any of us to get excited over the Bald win presidential prospects,
 At the present time he has quite job on his hands taking over the state gov ernment. Under the leadership of Gov. Wilbur L. Cross and the Democratic par ty some notable changes and reforms have been brought about in the methods of state government since the Republi- cans last ruled the roost. It may take little time for the boys to get used to them. And until they do we may find that the orderly progress of government is impeded. There's apt to be stamping and shouting at the Capitol doors for flood of patronage.
 If he can surmont this, then Governor elect Baldwin may start to entertain some thoughts of 194O. But he himself says he isn't going to build up political machine. If that's the case, he'll have to develop into almost superhuman state executive to command national attention two years

Signal Honor

Waterbury was accorded an unusual s;oht and treat over the past weekend; TSree native sons who have been elevaCSu +o hioln rank in the Roman Cathonc Church were present in this city upon an accasion that was joyful for all. Tne re- t11rn of Bishop Matthew F. Brady or bur- iington. Vermont, to pontificate at Mass in Ris native parish of St. Patrlck'S was real homecoming in every sense or the word for Bishop Brady himself was con vinced that he had been absent so many wears from Waterbury that people woulo have completely forgotten him.
 That they hadn't and welcomed tne onnort1nitv to renew cquaintanceshlps was readily seen in the magnificent at- tendance at both the testimonial banquet oiven in his honor by the local Knights ot Columbus and at the Mass in the morn ing Returning, too, to their native clty, which they vsit from time to time in most unostentatious fashion, were Archbishop John G. Murray and Bishop Joseph F. Mccarthy. Both shared in the hearty wei come accorded Bishop Brady, although both came bringing praises ana not to be praised.
 Few cities of the size of Waterbury can boast the ecclesiastical record that we have. Three Bishops in the Roman Catho- lie Church and fourth in the Protestant Episcopal Church where is it equalled, we ask you? But as one speaker said over the weekend, it is not surprising. Waterbury has given so liberally of it's sons and daughters to the religious life that it is bound to see certain proportion of them attain high ranking The city is blessed in that it's children have gone forth and labored nightly in the vineyard Of the Lord

Watertown belongs 70 our genial Horace D. Taft, who labored tire lessly up and down the Naugatuck Valley in favor of the Merit Plan. I wonder if the Observer could tell me when MT. Taft will labor little right in his own back yard on the Merit Plan; for instance, the Taft School in which he has been head master for over forty years. There are many in this old rock ridden Republican county that would like to see Observer Horace D. labor 8 little up and down Woodbury road in favor of the Merit Plan; perhaps if this little job was done, it may stop the onward march of the Taft School Business Manager, who is slaughtering the members of the faculty and staff, who had worked the best part of their days for Hor- ace D. Taft. Those people worked from sixteen to twenty-five years for Taft.
 A local man born and raised in Watertown, graduate of Yale, dis charged after sixteen years as maS- ter at Taft, only to join the faculty at Mount Herman school; a wrest- ling coach that turned out unde- feated teams at Taft School for twenty five years, discharged. Why?
 A graduate nurse, a local girl of Waterbury, discharged from her duties as nurse after years of faith ful service; in fact, 8 written rec ommendation signed by Horace D. Taft, states that she was the most efficient nurse and well qualified to meet any situation that she may be confronted with in her line of duty. Then, why was this lady dis charged?
 Only recently a young lady, who had worked faithfully in the ac- countant's office, was discharged after twenty three years service. Along with others, I can mention, were thrown to the winds. That was their reward after all those years of service. When is Merit System a Merit Plan? I am sure Observer can answer.

 Leopold Godowsky was 8 unique figure among all his contemporaries a phenomenal pianist and a musi- clan of the most exceptional attributes. Early he had mastered practically the whole of the modern repertory. He sought new worlds to conquer, and set to developing the modern idioms of the piano in ways which had a strong effect upon the development of present-day technic and upon composition for the in- Strument.
 This alone would entitle him to the fame rather unjustly denied him as a pianist. When he played, his style was too perfect, too sensi- tive, perhaps too cool and unosten- tatiouS in its values, to win the ap- proval of the crowd. He could play everything when he was at the zenith of his powers, with a finish and apparent ease attainable by few, and with an understanding and abhorrence of exaggeration which did not favor him in the con- cert world. By Other great pianists, such as Hoffmann and Rachmani- noff, Godowsky was profoundly esteemed He was man of wholly exceptional mentality; widely read; at home and at ease with men who were leaders in other fields than his own: traveller in many lands; a restless and curious inquirer in more than one realm of discovery. His family ties were close and binding, and he had in a rare de- gree the gift of friendship. He had more than his share of tragedy. but his service to music was great and enduring, proportionate to his industry, knowledge, and modesty in his course.

A Book a Day
Listen, the
 Lindberghs

Incredible as 1t may seem, tns pioneer days of transatlantic fly ing have already passed. They were gone with completion of the first hit-o or-miss survey flights and with them went a rugged thrill which aviation will scarcely ever know again.
 That thrill, the full quality of the pioneer period, Anne Morrow Lind- bergh catches in an unforgettable book, as moving and as beautiful as flight itself, Listen, the Wind" (Harcourt Brace: $2.50).
 Starting from New York in July, 1883, Colonel Lindbergh and his wife began a six-month survey of the possible air routes between Europe and America. December found them in Africa, ready to hop off for South America on their trip homeward. Mrs. Lindbergh's book, with foreword by, her husband, is a chronicle of these last 10 days and of an 1800-mile journey across the South Atlantic.
 lO ISdu 1t ID UV ACAR tAAC WAANAS screaming over the cowling, the roar of powerful motors pounding in your ears; to know fear and desolation and finally elation as the plane drops safely at the last port.
 Pioneer flying such as the Lindberghs did necessitated un-, usual reserves, both in fuel and emergency. They carried two complete and independent radios, one in a waterproof sailboat. They never took off without alternate destinations in their range and their ultimate safety lay, as the Colonel describes 1t, "in a proper balance of constantly changing factors..-P. e. F.

The press in Peru is completely controlled. If 8 news agency att tempted to cable a dispatch to Lima, quoting this story, for ex- ample, it would not get past the borders.
 The Apristas who are at lib- erty plan to stage a demonstra- tion during the Pan-American conference. If they do, 1t will probably give a rude jolt to the top hat diplomats, for when per- secuted Latin Americans demon strate," they demonstrate. The slugging is free and fierce.
 Vocational Training
 Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold is making a new use of the $1-a-year-rnan system.
 Shorthanded in his antitrust Investigations and lacking funds to employ additional attorneys, Arnold has solved his problem by drawing on star upper classmen of the Yale law school, of which he is a faculty member on leave.
 A score of the seniors are on the Justice Departments pay- roll as $1-a-year-men. They work several days a week as re- search assistants to full time government lawyers.
 Through the ingenious plan Ar mold is winging two birds with one stone. He is providing his overworked Anti-T Trust Division with much needed help and af- fording the students frst-hand experience in Important legal practice.
 The student aides helped pre- pare the record of the auto and glassware patent cases with which Arnold will open the mono poly probe when it gets under way this week.
 These two cases, incidentally, will provide 8 striking contrast of the use and misuse of pat ents. Arnold will show how in the motor industry patents are not withheld from competitors while the exact opposite exists among the glassware makers with resulting monopolistic con- / troI of production and prices.'
 To handle anticipated stand ing-room-only" crowds at the hearings elaborate preparations have been made for witnesses, spectators and the press. The largest chamber on Capitol Hill will z be used and special wires have been set up for the expected throng of daily and trade journal reporters.

Snow and then some snow! At the rate at which the holiday snow fell, we should be well buried by Christmas time. How ever there's always the chance that few days thaw will remove every trace of snow and lay bare the earth. But if ever there was sharp division between au- tumn and winter, it was the Thanksgiv- ing storm. Up to then we had been hover ing on the border line; now we're defin- itely in the hard season.
