The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1940-02-03

The failure Of Mr.. Smith to
deny the admittedly authoritative
reports Of his impending with
drawal, and his accompanying
statement that his wish to resign
was mo secret" among his asso-
ciates would seem to be best in
terpreted this way: He wants to
Withdraw, is ready to offer his
resignation, and wishes to give the
party leaders sufiicient time in
which to settle their differences
and agree ON new state leader.
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1940-02-03

Rep. Hugo Guastaferri, who
was more or less q compromise
candidate two years ago. will this
year be without much Of the
strong Decking which aided him
thea. Il Is considered extremely
likely that he will be dropped this
year.

publican party to win. First am
interested In a man who can win.
And second, I am interested In q
man who can restore this country
to normality after he WINS"
Leading Republicans here said
there was strong possibility the
Republican national convention
would show q division Of strength
among Dewey, Taft and Vandenberg
and that a compromise candidate
may be needed.
Small Delegation
They pointed to the fact that the
smallness Of Connecticut's delegation
might work against Baldwin, because
trades" might be difficult to work
out in q convention with only 8
small number Of delegates.

This Interpretation, which at
the worst is not very far from
100 per cent accuracy, reveals sew

The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1940-02-03

In conversations with those
close to him politically, Mr. Smith
has commended time after time
that many Of the supposed differ
ences within the Democratic party
in the state are largely mythical.
His feeling is that the several
factions within the party are fac
tiDns in name only, and that dis
agreements In matters Of specific
policy among influential members
rush Immediately to form an Or
glenized opposition to those with
differing views.
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1940-02-03

This belief Of the retiring state
chairman may be based partly ON
wishful thinking, but much Of 1t
10 true. II win, not be surpris-
ing. since this year sees Connecti-
cut's electoral votes for president
as well as control Of the state
government at stake, to find that
olive branches win sprOut with
tropical abandon among state
Democrats in the month ahead.
The boys know, after 1888, that
they'll Ill be better of march
ing together than in different d.
rections.

There are hardly enough
apples to make an apple pie In
the Port Of Tacoma warehouse.
Tacoma lost business due to the
fact that railroad service spotted
cars early in the morning and the
belt line failed to get them to the
port"
The utilities departments IN

denied TAcomans jobs which they
should have had. There II no

EXCHANGES
BLACK WIDOW SPIDER
APPEARS in CAMBRIDGE

A perennial summer bugaboo, the
finding of Cambridge's first black
widow spider, was announced last
week by DR.. Herbert Doizer, of the
Black Water Game Refuge.
The pest was found under the edge
of concrete block in front of the old
American Legion home on Gay and
Spring streets.
The black widow is Americas most
deadly insect, DR.. Dozier said, its
bite producing death by paralysis in
many cases. It can be distinguished
from all others by its glossy black
body with a bright red hour-glass
on the under side. The name black
widow is derived from the fact that
the female devours her husband" a.
live after the mating season.
This particular specimen, DR.. Doz-
Ter said, is being kept alive to ia
miliarize the public with its appear
ance and habits.
