JOHNSON WARNS
 |OF THIRD TERM
COP. Candidate for Con- gress Contrasts Caesar,
 Franklin D. Roosevelt

President Roosevelt was likened to Julius Caesar by Frank T. John son, Republican candidate for con- gress, in an address delivered at 8 New Milford Republican club clam bake yesterday. The third term att tempt, he said, is comparable to Ceasar's abrogation of the law lim- iting the terms of rulers.
 Another speaker at the gathering was Paul Cornell, c. o. P. nominee for U. s. senator.
 MT. Johnson said in part:
 This matter of violating the Ameri- can tradition against the third term of office for any administration is an issue of gravest importance. As we go back through the pages of his- tory we see that the cenCury'S wisest men have realized the danger to the people of long reign by any one man or group of men.
 One example comes to mind = that of ancient Rome. There was in ancient Rome more than a tradition there was law strictly limiting the term of office. Lo' along came Caesar and he did to that law what this ad- ministration is now seeking to do to the honored American tradi- tion against a third term. He ab- brogated it, and thus rose the Ro- man Empire. We know what hap pened to the Roman empire 1t fell in term of its own weight and was destroyed!
 Now during the past few years in Washington we have seen great central power. We have seen more and more authority delegated to one man. On top of this unprecedent- ed standardization of power, we now see bid by an administration which has piled failure on failure, to extend its rule for a longer time than any other administration in the long enduring situation of our coun- try.
 Do you not agree that the barley is unmistakeable? I declare to you that it is time for the American people to heed the admonition of Benjamin Franklin that "The secur- ity of free government depends upon frequent election and rotation in of-
 flee"
