each economic hypodermic by way of pump-priming, each stimulant by means of artificial injection seems to produce a less favorable reaction.
 There is now a continually grow ing skepticism about the spending lending program, far beyond that which existed when this type of governmental policy was first in- troduced. Now that our people have seen the results and have had time to realize the inevitable fail ure of such methods, an increasing number have found it impossible tc escape the conclusion that the only real lasting result is a staggering amount of debt with its attendant burdens of taxation.
 Farewell To Reform?
 Have we seen the peak of the so-called reform movement? Ger tain indications point to that con- clusion," MT. Heinmann states. "The economic-political storm seems to be passing, though the thunder may roll on for considerable time in the future. The theorists and extremists have had their day in court and, like the end of all days in court, verdict seems near.
 Unless I completely mistake the present temper of the American people, they are unwilling to con- placently continue much longer &C., cepting theoretical reforms without carefully appraising their conse- quences. Sound judgment is be- ginning to return, not only here but, to some degree, abroad. We have the first signs of it in a num- Der of directions.
 Seven Factors
 First, the more radical labor pro- gram sponsored by certain irrespon- sible labor leaders is fast losing caste. Only through a change oi programs can they hope to re-es- tablish their prestige in nationa, affairs.
 Second, the spending lending program is losing many adherents There is a general note of skep- ticism over the long-range effects of such programs. The realization of an inevitable day of payment is looming larger in the eyes of many citizens.
 Third, the value of relief work nationally accepted in an emergen- cy, is now more generally doubted Relief is slowly becoming unsatis- factory to both recipients and tax payers. A growing ratio of relief workers is expressing it's desire for more permanence than relief pro- grams can bring.

President Sugenheimer of Merchants Bureau Con-
 ducting Survey

Survey of the volume of sales of Waterbury's Dollar Day" yesterday is in process and Joseph Sugen- heimer, president of the Waterbury Merchants bureau, remarked today that the event appeared to have been very successful.

 Stores remained opened generally until 6 o'clock to allow for the VOL ume of trade by those who shopped after work.
 The event was conducted under auspices of the Merchants Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce.

 Kopplemann then promised to work shoulder to shoulder" with the Insurgent group in the Aug. 29 primary. A slate of delegates was prepared.
 Lonergan forces, meantime, were working in Hartford County areas, where Kopplemann was strongest, to induce some of the representa- tive's pledged delegates to desert.
 West Hartford may become one of the fighting centers, it was reported
 The New Deal contingent, mean time, awaited word in some fashion from President Roosevelt as to his stand in the bitter battle for the senatorship.
 Some sources said the White House indication of preference may come in the form of a letter to Dr. F. M. Claffey, Bristol, member of the first district congressional committee.
 Dr. Claffey wrote the president urging him to come into the open in support of Kopplemann, 100 per cent New Dealer.

Controller Finds He's Member Of Finance Board

Controller Sherwood L. Rowland became a member of the board Of finance officially" yesterday. The initiation provided amusement for the commissioners at the close of the meeting when the controller questioned whether there was a quorum to sign the bills."
 "T'm still a member of the board" Mayor Frank Hayes com mented.
 "You're a member of the board by virtue of your office," Commis- sioner John H. Goss informed Controller Rowland, adding, If it's any virtue"
 "Oh, you mean that I sign the sheets over here, too?" the con- troller queried, pointing to the space where the commissioners ordinarily sign, . space apart from the spot where there now appears the signature, "Sher- wood L. Rowland" on all such warrants payable sheets.
 Present at the meeting were Commissioners Goss, Charles B.. Jackson, John A. Hayden, and Aldermanic President Patrick M. Perriello. With Mayor Hayes and the controller there was a Quorum" and Controller Rowl- and was part of it, he found.

care in disposing of smoking ma. terial especially at this time of year
 To the same end, it is urged that campers and picknickers exert care with their fires and make certain that cooking fires are fully extin- guished before equipment is re- packed into the car or trailer for departure. Thoroughly abusing the fire with water or covering with earth will prevent the fire from be- coming a source of forest conhaga- tion, and, again, care in the dis posal of smoking material is held to be essential for all who are in or near woods whether they be on watersheds or elsewhere.

COUCHLIN NAME
 IN LABOR TANCLE

Detroit, Aug. 19.-(UP)-Four of- f1cers expelled from the United Au- tomobile Workers Union sought SUD- port today both from the union rank and file and the Committee for Industrial Organizat ton for their plan to have special con- vention oust Homer Martin, the JAW president.
 George Adde's, busted secretary treasurer of the union, charged that Martin had conspired with Father Charles E. Coughlin, John P. Frey of the American Federation of Labor, and representatives of the Jay Lovestone branch of the Con- mun1st party, to wreck the c. I. O.,
 The expulsion of the four officers Adde's and Vice Presidents Rich- ard T. Frankenstein, Wyndham Mortimer and Ed Hall-was based on Martins charges that they had conspired with the Communist party of America to overthrow the unions leadership. In his counter charges, Adde's brought to Lovestone branch, hated rival of the regular Commu- mist party, into the controversy.

Win With
Benson

The Farmer-Labor Party's
constitution stands unalter-
ably aligned against any kind
of discrimination, regardless
of RACE, COLOR or CREED.
The platform of the Farm
er-Labor Party, adopted at
the 1888 convention in Du-
luth, carries complete endorse
ment of Federal anti-lynching
legislation. 1t also pledges the
party to vigorous efforts to
bring domestic help under the
Social Security regulations.
Governor Elmer A. Benson
has repeatedly taken drastic
action in seeing that every
Minnesota citizen, regardless
of who it might be, has been
given fair treatment at the
Capitol. He is constantly
scourging prejudice. He has
seen to it that Minnesota citi-
zenS of our group have been
proportionately placed on the
State payroll. He favors enact
ment of legislation to further
protect the worker and small
business man. He is for equal
enforcement of the law.
Isn't this exactly for what
we have been fighting?

L. BIB: Please give me some
advice regarding the complicated
state of affairs existing in my life
and home.
Ans: Your condition does not
differ greatly from that faced by
most girls of your age. Faced with
the entirely natural desires Of life,
you are nevertheless baked by
your own better judgment. Do not
give in to the boy under any cir
cumstances nor upon receipt of any
promise. Obey your grandfather
when he is right humOr him
when he seems to be unfair.
M. R.: Please tell me if l will
be successful in getting what / am
expecting?
Ans: 1 fear that you are due to
be a bit disappointed regarding the
naturalization of your expecta-
tiOns. Although you will get some
part it will be such a small part
of the whole that there will not be
much joy for you in receiving 1t.
There viii be other days and other
desires realized to compensate you
for this disappointment.
C. M. S.: What causes my
mother to hate me so much? She
quarrels with me continuously.
Ans: Your mother does not hate
you. She is getting on in years.
and her health being none too good,
she is seldom in a very pleasant
state Of mind. Try not to feel too
badly about her actions as she is
not entirely responsible.
C. j.: Am 1 to become a mother

soon?
Ans: Your present condition is
apparently not as you think it to
be. However, you should not suffer
any great disappointment in this
respect as it would not be to your
best interest to become a mother at
this time.
L. T.: My husband and 1 are
separated. Should l consent to his
offer to make another effort to-
ward marital happiness?
Ans: 1t is very evident that he
is not content to live the life of a
single man after knowing the joys
of marriage. Else he would never
have asked you to live with him
again. I think that your own flu
ture happiness depends upon your
being willing to accept this pro-
pOsal and making another effort to
uAtu the PCoSC ohu COHICNLuCHL
which you failed to find in your
first trial.
]. L. W.: My husband deserted
myself and children several weeks
ago. 1 am a moral, Christian
woman and wish to live up to my
vows. What can 1 do in this case?
Ans: If it were not for the
children 1 would advise you to
gladly allow him to go his way, as
it is certain that he is not worthy
of the love of a woman of your
character. However, the children
must be considered so make every
effort toward having him to return
home and help you to rear and sup
port your five children.
