Man Inherits Money
But Can't Get 1t.

Observation-Disclosures complications
are really affecting Rudolph Hulst.
Some time ago, Mr.. Hulst was advised
that he had inherited a sum of money
IN Germany. It amounted to some 500
or more. But that's where the inter-
national complications set in. Nazi
Germany will not allow any cash to
leave its borders and the only way Mr..
Hulst can get it is to 60 over there.

Don't Forget The Valley

With all the many legislative measures being proposed we hope that some legis- lator in the Naugatuck Valley will make 1t point to do something about build ing parkway along the Naugatuck River from Ansonia and Derby up to Torrington. Some effort should be made to continue the State Highway Depart ment policy towards pathways without allowing two or more years to intervene without recommendation for one. The Merritt Parkway will be completed be- fore another legislative session comes around. This one ought to take advan- tage of the situation to carry on the work.
 We are interested in the Naugatuck Valley route for several reasons. One is the fact that 1t has always been most scenic route and one that was annually traversed by thousands of motorists, out of state as well as natives. Another is that the route gives direct access to the Berkshires, White Mountains, Green Mountains, Canada etc, from southern Connecticut and New York. Another is that the Naugatuck Valley is used by tremendous number of heavy trucks plying between our industrial centers

The Best Sportsman

The New York Worlds Fair announces that it is going to award a Golden Laurel" next summer, at the Fairs Academy of Sport, to the United States citizen who performed "the outstanding achievement in sport" in 1888. Ballots have been sent to sports writers and others A majority of votes will name the winner. According to the rules, every American citizen is eligible, and every voter may name three choices. Candi- dates may be male or female, amateur or professional.
 The balloter is asked, under "sugges- tions", to note carefully the significant symbols in the artists sketch of the Col den Laurel. There are a heart for cour- age, an arm for strength and skill, and the balloter is advised not to overlook a lamp for intellect. Under that last, the candidates "tact, diplomacy or wisdom"
 This should be good game for the rest of the winter for the hordes of indi- viduals who like to answer quizzes and debate the relative merits of their favor ite sports and Sportsmen. Skill and strength will be easy Hardly anyone gets to the top in any sport without them. But courage and intellect, with the lat ter subdivided into tact, wisdom and di- plomacy, create possibilities for endless debate. And how about laurel for the bright mind in the N. Y. Worlds Fair publicity department who thought up this one?
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-01-20

and New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and western points
 All three taken together show that the Naugatuck Valley gets it's fair share of traffic and perhaps a little more. It should be one of the more important highways in the state system. Unfortu- nately it has never been taken out of the classification of winding road, too mar row in some places, and not of the most modern construction. AS an outlet to the Merritt Parkway, via the Housatonic River bridge it would aid in preventing congestion at this point by allowing 8 speed-up in traffic headed north.
 We really think that Waterbury legis- lators and others throughout the valley ought to get together to put through some sort of legislation calling for a Nau- gatuck Valley Parkway, work to start on the same as soon as possible.

A Thought for Today
Examine Elm All

A flock of bills have been introduced in the Legislature, vitally affecting the City of Waterbury. More may still be pre- sented, either by being raised in com mittee or by being brought into the com mittee quietly after the deadline for in- troducing bills has been passed. All ot the measures are naturally entitled to every consideration, but all certainly are not entitled to passage. From the con- glomerate mass of Waterbury bills must be selected those that will be of the most advantage to the most number ot people in Waterbury.
 Many propose changes in our city charter for all sorts of reasons. Some of these reasons are good ones; many, we think, are not. They must be separ- ated, one from the other. And 1t would seem as if the city itself might be allowed to express opinions for or against NO doubt many people will take the trouble to journey to Hartford to register ther approval or disapproval before the var ious legislative committees holding hear ings on the proposed legislation. view of the many sweeping changes pro- posed in our city government it would be only fair for our city fathers to hold a series of public hearings in the City Hall, where the people who aren't able to go to Hartford and who wouldn't know their way around the legislative halls, if they did lid go, can express their opinions k isn't asking too much of our alder manic body to consider seriously the job of telling the public just what the individuals and organizations demand ing city charter changes are contem- plating.
 Residents are complaining about the difficulty of paying sewer assessments and the methods by which a change 1n the present law can be procured. The Democrat has given a pretty good pie ture of many more law changes which will affect all of the taxpayers. It re- mains to be seen if we can't remain as interested in these and perhaps applaud the meritorious ones, oppose those ob- Hously of "grudge" nature.

Governor Raymond E. Baldwin had a lot to say about balancing the budget today Comment on that will be forth coming after thorough perusal of the same But what do state officials do about such things as hurricanes. We had one last fall, as you may remember The amount of damage in Connecticut was we'll up in the millions. Did you know, though, that to date the State Highway Department has spent $600,000 in replacing bridges that were washed out or destroyed in the floods that fol- lowed the storm? And that isn't the end of this, either. Another $3O0,OO0 will be spent in fixing up and replacing bridges. Probably the total will be very close to million dollars. If one storm did that to bridges alone, what did it do to high ways, private property, etc.? The bless ing in disguise is naturally the fact that the new bridges will be very permanent, wider than the old ones, and in general more satisfactory They should be at a price of $1,000,O00.

Federal Judge Oliver B. Dickinson has his ideas on strikes and picketing. In a recent decision he said that the 'idea of peaceful picket or peaceful picketing is myth. And when you come right down to it, he's exactly right. Contin- uing the jurist stated: "The purpose is not to persuade other employees or the public, but to stop the business of the employer" Anyone who wants to be honest about the subject of picketing must admit the truth of what the judge sion, a person is on the defensive so far as defending picketing as means of bringing about peaceful labor conditions in the United States.

Chameleon Camoufiage

A French inventor is said to be offer ing the United States government a patented system of camouflage working in curious way. It is sort of chame- leon principle, but with difference. The chameleon lizard has the ability to make itself invisible by assuming the color of it's surroundings. The new device, as applied to ship for example, does not copy the color of the water, cloud, rock, or other background. Instead, it is painted permanently in colored rect angles of complementary shades which tend to neutralize each other. This crazy patchwork of colors has at distance almost the effect of no color at all, so that it is almost indistinguishable against any background.
 As the inventor explains his idea, it "allows an object always to assimilate itself with it's surroundings, no matter what those surroundings may be-" The chameleon never thought of doing it that way, but the net result is about the same. There might be demand, in normal times and places, for garments of this sort, to slip on when bill-collector comes along. Police, though, would have more trouble than ever if criminals started wearing them.

slammed the door on him, he raised an 0utcry over their in- fringing on the jurisdiction of the Treasury by insisting on in- specting the books of the giant Giannini holding company.
 The contention left the SEC un- moved. It already had complete authorization from the Treasury to dig into the corporations af- fairs. In fact, a major part of the SECS case will be based on information supplied by the Treasury.
 The battle is due to develop into one of the hottest vendet- tas in New Deal history. In hir-' ing Richberg the Gianninis got an ace lawyer, but they also got one who has plenty of private enemies in the Administration who would love to harpoon him.
 That also is true of William Stanley, Richberg's assistant. An assistant attorney general in the early day of the Adminis- tration, Stanley got in bad by trying to please both the New Dealers and the Democratic antis. Also, while he is fight ing the government in this case he is receiving S10,O0O a year from the government to com plete a tax suit he began while in the Justice Department.
 NOTE-A. P. Giannini didn't get off on the best foot himself with newsmen covering the story. He told at least three of them that he had considered hiring them to handle his public rela- tions. Comparing notes, the boys found he had told each practi- cally the same thing. Edward Bernays, high-pressure publicity agent whom he employed, is de- luging correspondents with daily handouts.

Book A Day
Neew Frontiers Springing up

If you think that America has seen its last frontier, you ought to read what reporter Richard L. Neu- berger has to say about the Pacific Northwest. MT. Neuberger has followed the fortunes of the land just over the Rockies for many years; he is emil nently qualified to speak. He does in a book as sweeping as the north west itself, "Our Promised Land" (Macmillan: $3). To read it is to know that the pioneer has not yet disappeared from the American scene.
 For great things are hapenning these days in the region of the Grand Coulee dam, says MT. Neu- berger. The dam itself is the biggest thing in the world. Here will be generated enough power to run half the industry of the country more even than at the IVA. Here also is timber and rich farm lands and incredible natural wealth. And only a small population occupies the area.
 But more are coming. Already thousands have settled. MT. Neuber- ger estimates that perhaps million more will come. Some have esti- mated 10O00,000 will trek eventually to the Promised Land." What to do with them, of course, after the pow CT of Grand Coulee is developed re- mains to be seen. Undoubtedly the opportunity is latent but a careful program must be formulated to utilize the best for the greatest number. MT. Neuberger would en- courage no influx at this date.
 Meanwhile a rousing frontier life itself is to be found along Grand Coulee's B street and in the new pioneer communities. MT. Neuberger pictures all this, interjecting at the same time a study of the economic social and political conditions of the Promised Land"
 You will find his book, therefore. one of the most revealing of the year about America.-P. c. F.

most favorable auspices, with the nonpartisan backing of his poten- tially most searching critics-the members of his own profession. No important voice was raised against him at the senate hearings. No real doubt was expressed that the living Constitution, and the liberties of the citizen unde- the Constitution, will be safe in his hands.
 Justice Frankfurter will take his seat at the age of 56. We hope that his wisdom and learning will have many more years in which to ripen.

JUSTICE FRANKFURTER
(New York Times)

On the face of the record it was Felix Frankfurter,s nomination to the supreme court of the United States that was confirmed yester- day. From another point of view it was one of the best and wisest traditions of our democracy that re- ceived new assurance. MT. Frank furter goes to the high bench be- cause, and only because, his charac- ter, his genius and his learning made him the inevitable choice for the place. If political considerations had prevailed a dozen other men might have been preferred. If sec- tional considerations had figured the place would have gone to some can- didate west of the Mississippi river. But MT. Frankfurter's good qualities outshone all other candidates and all other arguments. The good for tune, 1t was clear, was not so much his as his country's."
 He goes to the court under the

And also there's bill to legalize horse race betting But when we looked over the bill we found it covered trotters and pacers, which are not race-horses, so to speak. The present bill may be covering up multitude of legislative worries or it may be just what it appears to be.

 My heart is hollow as a bell Rung silent in windless place, More silent than the silent shell Because 1t has no tale to tell And yet-a football on the ground Would wake wild, tumultuous sound Delay not long. oh listening ear; The oceans tale is yours to hear Oh wanderer on lonely street Where silence is a winding-sheet, Come soon. and hear the things they tell The silent heart, the silent she'll

They had quite a time in Newfound- land recently. It seems there was a penny shortage there and business was hard put to keep going what with store keepers running short of necessary change. Failure to replace old coins taken out of circulation brought about the shortage It was relieved when the new pieces, 500,000 of them, arrived from England.

Martins only chance to retain his presidency.
 The young ex-Baptist preach- CT is taking desperate gamble. He knows he is slated for the SkidS at the JAWS next con- vention in August. The stage was set when he was stripped of most of his power last fall after thumbing his nose at CIO Chief John L. Lewis. When Martin lost that tussIe, he be- came 8 marked man.
 His only hope was to create a situation that would justify an appeal to the rank-and- file for a special convention, which he could pack with his supporters before his powerful foes could organize. If he waits for the regular con- vention he is sure to be outnum- bered.
 So on advice of his back stage braintruster, Jay Love- stone, expelled secretary of the Communist party, Martin de- liberately set out to provoke a row with his opponents.
 Whether he succeeds in his strategy remains to be seen. So far he has come off second best. The executive board fired him as editor of the JAW paper, and it all looks bad for Martin. But the fight isn't over ,yet-that is, he doesn't think so.
 TRANSAMERICA TACTICS
 Donald Richberg's injunction move in the sensational Trans america corporation cast came only after he had failed to scare the SEC into calling off its probe.
 The former New Deal big shot literally stormed the SEC with demands that it halt it's hearings. First he tried to come before the commissioners in or- der to tell them how their law yers should proceed. When the commissioners in effect
