POLICE EXPECT
 HEAVY TRAFFIC
Memorial Day Marks Be- ginning of Summer Holi-
 day Season

Memorial Day marks the begin ming of the summer holiday season. State and local police are geared to handle the heavy flow of traffic which is expected to pass along the streets and highways of Connecti- cut during the weekend and over the holiday itself.
 Last year, during this holiday period, five persons were killed and 148 injured as the result of 189 traf- f1c accidents. As bad as that record is, it marks a substantial decrease over the same holiday in 1887 when seven people were killed and 265 in- jured in 343 highway nlishaps, &C., cording to a statement made today by Commissioner Michael A. Connor of the state department of motor vehicles.
 In his statement, Commissioner Connor called attention to the fact that Connecticut motorists are out standing throughout the country for the safe manner in which they con- duct themselves on the highways That fact is evidenced, he pointed out, by the consistent reduction each year in traffic accidents and the resulting deaths and injuries.
 "Those of us charged with the ad- ministration of street and highway safety are justly proud of the fine record Connecticut motorists estab- lished last year. However, he con- tinued, i've are apprehensive when- ever 8 multiple holiday comes along lest the motorists and pedestrians of the state, imbued with the holiday

 COMMITTEE GAINS
 EFFECTIVENESS
 The Dies committee today is 8 vastly changed outfit. It has grown more precise, more careful, more thorough. One of the reasons is Congressman Martin L. Dies him. self.
 Dies opponents have under estimated him. He is not obsessed 1 by the idea that only the radical is a menace to American institu- tions. He is not too thick skinned to be able to soak up criticism. Nor is he too dumb to learn by his mistakes.
 The complaint that he liked to expose Communism but didn't care about the Nazis, the Fascists, or their homegrown imitators ex- ploded with a bang when he dug mot the Moseley- Gilbert Campbell anti-Semitic mess As matter of fact, he dislikes Fascism as much as Communism, and has perfect ly sincere hatred of anti-Semitism. He has the not unreasonable rlo- tion that class, racial and religious prejudices are pretty likely to fol- low one another, and that alto- gether they represent the greatest of all menaces to America.
 IMPROVED
 WEAPONS
 Another reason for the commit tees improvement is the simple fact that it now has plenty of money. Never before was it able to hire a really effective staff. It has good one now-headed by Rhea Whitley, who was G-man, and a highly placed one to boot, for ten years.
 Its Investigating staff knows how to go after evidence and knows how to nail 1t down. The material which will be at hand when the committee summons witnesses will be far better organized than was the case year ago.
 Still another reason for change is the fact that Congressman Jerry voorhis of California was added to the committee this winter. Voorhis is one of the congressional left-wingers, and his appointment was supposed to represent an adr
