cedure alone that the spoils sys-
tenn can be routed out of our city
government and If there is any city
in the state that needs to have this
operation performed on 1t, that city
is Waterbury.
John Ring has already described
to you the first step we plan 10
take by stating that he will appoint
competent personnel director to
act as executive secretary and will
refer matters of appointment 10
that man leaving John Ring free TO
devote his time to acting as your
chief executive instead of acting as
the head of a political machine.
The personnel man will in turn be
free to obtain for you the best
possible city employees to fill any
new appointments that will be made
to vacancies occurring in the city
service after January LIST. This
function Of the mayors executive
secretary will not apply to appoints
ments of teachers. We feel that
the one mistake that has been made
by Mayor McLevy's administration
in Bridgeport is its attempt TO
apply the ordinary personnel pro-
cedures to the teaching profession.
We do not intend to repeat that
mistake. The teachers merit sys-
tenn which we plan to institute will
be separate one under which the
superintendent of schools acts as
personnel director and the board Of
education as personnel board"

nendent Democrats are willing to
suonsor him, and when it is impos-
sible to run on a personal independ-
ent ticket.
Program Transparent
His program is pitifully transpar-
ent. He is making desperate effort
to distract attention from a COMPARE
son of his own qualifications and
those of Vincent Scully. His ar
guments are absurd and contradic-
tory. He says at one moment that
Mr.. Scully is a front" or false
face" for the "old gang He says
in the same speech that Mr.. Scully
is a personal candidate Of mine. just
a few days ago Mr.. Culhane criti-
cized the efforts that certain Demo-
Gratis including myself were making
TO obtain q reorganization of the
party. He said in the local press:
"There are many members on the
present town committee whose eff
forts have contributed greatly to the
up-building of the Democratic party
In Waterbury. I can see no reason
why they should resign unles sthey
see fit to do so of their own volition."
Senator Culhane started his cam
paign by announcing that he would
welcome a clean contest and that he
would be pleased to support a sue
cessfN opponent. He has since then
conduced a campaign which would
make his support a mockery.
The entire record of Senator Cul-
hane demonstrates that his opponent
is attacked not because he IS Mr..
Scully but because he has the cour-
age to offer himself in opposition to
an inolerant and Unsuitable seeker
for power. Make no mistake about
tiff you or anyone else had been
the candidate, you would have re-
ceived the same treatment.
I want here and now to absclve
the supporters of Senator Culhane
from compliciy in his campaign tao
tics. Many Of them are friends Of
mine and I know them to be loyal
Democrats. I think that they have
been misled but do not question
their sincerity.

Eugene Sheehan, member and
vice chairman of our Town Com
mittee and signer of said petition,

charged that the purpose stated in
the petition had been changed by

signatures were obtained. He charged
that no Endorsement of Senator Gull

when he signed, and that the in
dorsement had been added later. /
ask, is this a straightforward way
of doing things? Senator Culhane
did not deny the facts stated in
Mr.. Sheehan's reputation.
The question as to what party Sen
ator Culhane belongs, must surely
present itself to the voters.

fairs of the city of my birth and life
long residence. 1t is ridiculous for
anyone to infer that I am barred
from such interest by the fact that
I am chairman of the Democratic
state central committee. I happen
to be responsible for the employment
of a considerable number of persons
in this city and for the payment OF
large sums In taxes. Like al lof you,
I am vitality interested in the WELL
being of our great city. That is rea-
son enough, but If further reason
were necessary, 1t is provided by the
attacks that have been made on
nee and on other citizens OF Water
bury by one of the candidates for the
Democratic nomination for mayor.
I may properly say that I entered
this campaign by invitation from
Mr.. Culhane.
Or Else!
Let me say that his attitude to-
ward me and toward others comes as
no surprise. I fully realize that to
disagree with that gentleman, or to
fail to support him in his frantic
desire to seize public power, is an Of
Tense for which one may expect to
suffer in public abuse and calumny.
His attitude has always seemed to
be that he Is going to be mayor of
his adopted city-or else!
In 1889 Mr.. Culhane returned to
the Senate. He met with the DEM
ocratic caucus and agreed speciflcal-
ly to go along with the Democratic
senators in the organization of the
Senate. He attempted to organize
a small group of Democratic senators
to vote with the Republicans in the
organization in some sort Of deal.
He finally did vote with the Repub-
licans on the important question of
the formation of legislative commit
tees. contrary to the unanimous vote
of the Democratic caucus in which
he had concurred.

point. Observation-Disclosures

person with experience and knowl-
edge is better qualified for public Of
flee than one who is unequipped
with actual experience.
1t was Edmund Burke, the great
statesman, defending the American
colonies in the English Parliament,
who said, You cannot indict
whole nation of people," One could
say with equal logic, "You cannot
indict whole city administration.
Because I and more than q thou
sand teachers, firemen, policemen
and other persons were employed by
the City Of Waterbury during, a
period when certain officials and
persons, unknown to the rest of us,
were engaged in improper practices;
does that ignorance or association
make us members of conspiracy or
disqualify us from continuing to
serve our city in honest employment
and in occupation totally unrelated
and unconnected with any wrong
doing?
Explains Position
Because from the very first day
of employment by the City of Wa
terbury, entered into contract to
perform extra legal services, essen
tial to the proper conduct of NUM-
cipal affairs, authorized by the char
ter, contracted for in the manner
provided for by the charter. which
services were conscienciously per-
formed In the higher courts of this
state and are a matter of record
therein and for which the remuner-
alton received was fair and rea-
sonable charge measured by any fair
standard, because of these acts,
ask, is 1t fair or kind or necessary
to attack a mans good name and
reputation to gain public preference.
I submit that the only fair test of
a persons public service is whether
he worked honestly and efficiently
and earned rightfully what he re-
ceived as remuneration for his SER,
vics and I am willing to be judged
by the people of my native city by
that very standard whether in test
by the electorate for public office
or in my professional and daily
work In support of my family.
It Is regrettable that this Primary
Campaign could not have continued
along the lines which Mr.. Culhane
himself first set forth; it is regret
table that he saw fit to pull the
Campaign from a high plane OF dis
cussion of the real issues down TO
the low plane of personal abuse. ]

shall keep my early pledge no mat

his attempt to hide his lack of ex-
perience or familiarity with the real
Issues by resorting to personal abuse.
I repeat what I think It Is most
important you should bear In mind,
namely. that have pledged myself
to honest, efficient, economical City
government. to fair treatment Of Its
many faithful public employees, to
constant attention to the public in

FUSION DEAL
Socialists Not Interested
Says Smedley; Approves
Merit System

Charging in q radio address last
night that various members of the
Republican party had made several
attempts to arrange a deal with
the Socialists by which the two
groups could put a fusion ticket
in the field, Frederic G. Smedley,
candidate for controller on the
Socialist ticket, stated that the So
cialists would take no party in any
such deal.
In his address, Mr.. Smedley said
in part:
"In my opinion, the third plank
in the Socialist party's platform
which states that we promise to in
stitute The Merit System for city
employees as far as practicable I'M
der our present charter from the
beginning of our administration and
to submit to the electorate In Oc-
tober, 1910, a proposed amendment
to the charter establishing Merit
System for city employees by char
ter amendment under the Home
Rule provision of Sections Sc and
81 Of our present charter, is the
most important plank Of all in our
