carry their message INTO all sections
of the state"
Numerous Rallies
Besides taking part in some three
dozen radio broadcasts, members Of
the state ticket, in order to see and
meet the people at first hand, have
attended and spoken at more than
ITO indoor rallies, picnics, outings,
factory gate meetings, dinners,
lunches, and other planned func-
tons. In addition, there have been
dozens of local origin meetings
which members Of the state ticket
found it impossible to reach because
of the time element.
The gatherings have been held in
all sections of the state, from Green
wich to Woodstock and from Ston-
ington to North Canaan. In many
of the larger communities, two,
three and even more rallies and mass
meetings have been held during the
eight weeks into which the campaign
activities were crowded
In line with their determination
to meet in person as many Of the
celebrates as possible and have face

the campaign issues, the candidates
have Travelled many thousands Of

sand miles. Running a close second
in this respect was Mrs. Chase Go
ing WoodhouSe candidate for Sec
rotary of the state, who, because of
the geographical position Of her
New London home, was obliged to
travel greater distances than any Of
the other statewide candidates to
reach the scene of the farflung
campaign activities. For the same
reason, John M. Dove, candidate
for comptroller, whose Danielson
home is near the Rhode Island
Connecticut border, did extensive
night travelling. Another campaigner
who wished sometimes that he had
seven-league boots was Odell Shop
ard, educator, Pulitzer Prize winner,
and candidate for Lieutenant Cover
nor.
President Advises
Toward the close of the campaign,
Mr.. Hurley was obliged to curtail
his speaking engagements somewhat
because of severe attack of laryn-
gifts He was still suffering from its
effects during the recent visit of
President Roosevelt who recon-
mended a throat spray the president
himself had found helpful. Mr.. Hur-
ley followed the presidents advice
and his voice cleared up.
Some of the radio programs and
rallies were designed to have spec
ial appeal to foreign-born Americans
who were not yet thoroughly fami-
liar with the English language. Sew
eral speaking engagements at these
meetings were filled by Lucian Ma
ciora, of New Britain, candidates for
ongreSsman-at-la who speaks

Of one damaged building when the
whole building collapsed and killed
them all.
"The Jewish quarter, in which
there was no possible military OBJ
jective, got its share of bombs.
Many were killed in the narrow
streets which are terraces on the
hillside. Many Jews were celebrat-
ing the sabbath and at least ore
synagogue was hit"

warehouses, tobacconistS and private

MODERATOR ASKS
HELP OF VOTERS
Milton Meyers Hopes EleC-
ton Will Run Off as Ef-
ficiently as Possible

Attorney Milton Meyers who will
serve as chief moderator in the ball
loting here tomorrow, today issued
an appeal TO voters to cooperate with
the election officials In order that
the voting may run off as smoothly
and efficiently as possible. The Of
ficials, he said. will do their best to
make it a clean, business-lke cleo
ton.
1t is requested that particularly
because Of the fact that this cleo
ton promises to bring out more
voters than any other election in
history that the public bear with
all officials in charge. Their task
will be long and arduous one and
can be made great deal easier
If the public will cooperate to the
fullest. Concrete example Of this
type of cooperation is that people
who have moved or changed their
voting address, determine early in
the day where they are to vote by
contracting the Assistant Regist-
rar of Voters, one of whom is at
each Voting District. If the AS
sistant in the district cannot help,
he will suggest that the voter go
to the Registrars Office at City
Hall. The Registrars Office has
had a considerable amount of ex-
ira work to perform in these last
few weeks, 1t has done an admir-
able job in lining up the locale of
the voters so that they are ever
ready to be of service to any per-
son who is in doubt. If the public
will remember that our voting list
is considerably increased and that
many more will exercise their pri-
vilege than heretofor and be pat
lent with any and all of the cleo
ton officials, they will receive
prompt and courteous treatment.

Chief Moderator, City of

Washington, Il. c., Jan. TO-
We hear a great deal of talk
nowadays about the American
way of life. Unhappily, however,
there is no basic agreement
among the disputants as to what
really constitutes the American
way of life. Much of the discus
sion is purely political in charac-
ter, and, generally, is designed
to propaganda in hebalf Of
whatever political program the

Such discussions get nowhere,
stead one is befogged in winding
passages of incoherence, arrant
demagoguery, and not much of
what may be called sober think

1t might be well, as We start
the New Year, to bark back over
the years since constitutional
government was established in
America and inform ourselves "a
new. as to what the original
architects of our,plan of govern
