The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-01-21

would tend 10 speed up tLle Hu~ ministration of Justice.
 The creation of e common Pleas court, circuit side, would bring the law within the constitutional amendment which gives the Gov ernor the power to nominate judges of these courts, subject to ratification and confirmation by the senate.
 Looking through . keyhole;
 I see all the so called leaders of the Waterbury Republican party scrambllng all over themselves In their anxiety to secure . political plum for themselves. see J. Warren Upson who many believe would like to be named a prosecu- tor in the court of Common Pleas, BUT who really wants to be named . judge of the court oi Common Pleas. Atty. "Dick" Bronson Is hoping he will be named to the Superior Court Bench; Vernon Hall wants to be County Commissioner; Albert Fal- Tor wants . state Job.
 And most of the lawyers In the organization want . prosecutor ship or . judgeship.
 The bill which Senator George T. Culhane introduced into the legislature dealing with the local Police department has teeth which local legislative reporters failed to notice The words DENOTED, PROMOTED OR SUSPENDED mean that the next Mayor of the City of Waterbury may drop all of the recently appointed super numeries because of the word SUSPENDED The Police of- ficers who were recently retired could be brought back into service and the officers now holding their jobs could be DENOTED and the chief of police would be named from within the police de- partment.
 Senator ]. Howard Roberts of Thomaston has introduced . bill which would take away the veto power of the mayor of Waterbury. TAis bill was originated by J. Warren Upson, but after Upson hsA the bill drafted he found that n3 local legislator would introduce it, therefore he had to get . leg lsiator from OUTSIDE the city to introduce.
 Gene Loughlin, first selectman ot Greenwich, and right hand man of national committeeman sam Pryor is prominently mem toned as . successor to state po- lice commissioner Anthony Sum dorland. So are Hartford County Detective Edward J. Hickey and RQv Rice of Woodbury. Personally I Hke Rice the best.
 The bankers of the state brought about the reappolntment of Bank Commissioner Walter Perry. And now this same line of activity Is being taken by the in- snrance companies who are urg- ing Che retention of Commissioner of Insurance John c. Blackall whose four year term expires this July. Blackall has done c remark able Job as Insurance Commis- sioner and no one can deny that fact
 The Democratic senators have not been called into caucus of
 late by their floor leader sena- tor Joe Downs. The Republicans have caucuses every other day. Downs should take the boys into his confidence and explain the business of the day and what moves they are expected to make, Another suggestion that I offer Mir. Downs Is that he make sure all of his senators are in their seats when the senate session gets underway, or one of these days the Republicans are going to take advantage of hs innocence and put through e measure without their knowledge.
 Rep. Hugo Gustefferri met me today and remarking about the quip ! took at him the other day he smiled and said My answer to you MT. Ryan, k bills and more bills"
 The people of Waterbury are going to have the privilege of vot- ing on the City Manager Form of fGovernment for the city in the very near future. The measure in the legislature asks for refereh- dunn on the subject so that the people of this city might voice their opinions. The town of Strat- ford, the home town of the Gov ernor, incidentally is under City Manager Form of Govern .ment.
