OFFICIALS SEEK
 RATE REDUCTION
Conference With C. L. &P. Co. Officials Planned in
 Near Future

Controller Thomas Conlon and Budget Director Thorvald Olsen to- day planned an early conference with officials of the Connecticut Light & Power O., to seek reduc- tion in the charge made against the city for lighting of streets. The two were appointed by the board of finance yesterday to attempt to secure 8 lower rate.
 The two-man committee was ap- pointed after MT. Olsen had pointed out that charges for new street lights, instead of being made only once, are instead added to the city's annual bill and must be paid year after year. MT. Olsen said that if the city spent in full its appropria- tion of 5000 for new street lights, the bill for next year would be $1 900 more. The annual cost is now about $110,OO0, he said.

MUSICAL EXPERTS
 ARRANGE CONTEST
Winners of 'Learning-to= Listen'' Quiz to Conl-
 pete Shortly

Experts of Wednesday evenings Learning -to-Listen" musical quiz will be challenged by new team of musicians over Station WATR this evening at 10:15 o'clock.
 The participants of tonight's quiz will be the Wednesday night champions, Miss Helen. SchauSter, Teddy Meyers and Joseph Breen versus the challengers Alexander Wolozin, Murray Lebowitz and Miss Mary Feest.
 The quiz, conducted by Walden Trimble and Miss Pauiette Wolo- gin, is presented under the aus pices of the WPA Adult Education Program of Waterbury. The pur- pose of the program is to interest MT. and Mrs. Waterbury in the new Learning ng-to-Listen" music series which opens Monday night at 7:15 in the music room of the Bronson Library. The course, it. self, is especially directed to those people who don't know 8 thing about good music but who would like to know. It is taught simply, without technical probing into those things that chiefly concern the musician and the composer, not the listener, without long-winded lectures-in short, largely by lis- tening to great music itself.
 Historical and descriptive notes accompany each program with musical explanations given by MT. Trimble and Miss Wolozin. Soft lights and floral decorations en- nance the atmosphere of the Learning -to-Listen" classes.
 The beginners course, to be giv- en each Monday night, is designed to give the layman a keener under standing of what the composer is saying in tone, and will acquaint the listener with the instrumental voices of the symphonic orchestra. The great orchestraS of the world. directed by master conductors will be brought to the Learning Listen" class, via 8 concert grand phonograph, which reproduces the music perfectly.
 Each Tuesday night, the advanc- ed class will meet at 7:15 and on Wednesday night. the Waterbury Pops" concert series will be resum- ed. The Pops" concerts, which was attended by Waterburians from all walks of life, proved to be a much needed musical activity in the Brass City and this year, more than ever, every effort will be made to honor requests.
 Learning -to-Listen" and the Pops" concerts are two of many outstanding adult courses, Spon- sored by the WPA Adult Education Program. For complete information concerning the courses in swim ming, cooking and fancy pastries, sewing, badminton, arts and crafts, piano, photography, and interior decoration, call Crosby high school.
 Attention is called to another musical quiz program which will be held Sunday over WATR, the time of which will be announced.

 The children of that captain and his wife are still here. The vast majority of Americans still work their way, whatever estates they may inherit. Most Americans who go to college now work their way through as surely as their fathers did when they came driving their estate on the hoff, in a yoke of oxen, to the college door. And those who have tried to persuade us that there is one set of Americans who work and another who sit back and live off the fat of the land and the sweat of others deserve to be hanged.
 For if they talk long enough, there will arise bricklayers and farmers whose sons will remain bricklayers and farmers and not go on to become Presidents and doctors who will breed sons good at laying brick and farming again.

 We have allowed few SnobS to talk about racial superiority in 8 country built in its beginnings and through its history out of a score of different nationalitieS and strong with the strength of the best in them all.
 What we need to do is to recover our old solitude, our old assurance, and great pride. We need to get back to our fathers belief that any man who works hard and stands up straight and independent and bosses his own soul, no matter what race he comes from, is worth all the machines and kingdoms and theories of statecraft in the world. Faith in working manhood is what we have grown by. If we keep that faith, Democracy will be safe from all the buzzards of Fas- cism and Nazism and Communism on the face of the earth. For those buzzards feed on carrion, where the people are dead or marked for death. Where people are really alive they are never found.
 Let's be Americans again.

BERLIN, Aug. 8.-Britain is
responsible for feeding the popula-
tions in countries occupied by
German troops because she is
responsible for their entering the
war against Germany, Dienst aus
Deutschland, authoritative COM
mentary, observed today.
The article said it was written in
reply to British press assertions that
Germany was responsible for the
care and feeding of persons in the
occupied areas and that Adolf Hitler
had declared in his last speech that
"the feeding of Europe is assured" "
Hitler spoke not of an assured
European but of an assured German
supply" Dienst aus Deutschland
said.
Activity of German welfare groups
in the occupied areas, it said,
showed that Germany is attempt
ing to secure provisions for these
peoples, but nevertheless, English
propaganda is guilty of a danger
GUS mistake" in substituting Euro
pean for German in Hitler's state
ment.
This was done, Dienst said, ''to
justify the inclusion of former Eng
lish Allies in the blockade"
The commentary said the Ameri-
can Red Cross already had con-
firmed that shipments sent to per-

Temporary Triumph Seen
For Japanese Diplomacy
Ry CHARLES III. KLINE.

BY CHARLES H. KLINE.
BY the Associated Press.
HANOI, French Indo- China, Aug.
8 P).-Gen. Issakou Nishihara, head
of Japanese economic mission, was
reported flying back here from Toxic
today, development hailed by COM
petent Hanoi quarters as giving this
French outpost temporary BREATH
ing spell from Japanese demands.
Gen. Nishihara, considered here
as a reasonable diplomat" was
recalled abruptly for conferences
with Japanese Premier Prince Fu-
mimaro Konoye last week. This
move, coming as the United States
clamped license system upon its
exports of oil and scrap iron, gave
rise to uneasiness here that Japan
might move quickly in this direction.
Unofficially, the return Of Nishi-
hara was described here as "a
triumph of diplomacy over force"
A further stiffening of resistance
toward Japan was seen in the an
nouncement of a decision to reopen
transit routes for Chinese exports
When French Indo-China bowed
to japanese pressure a. month ago
today and agreed to seal the border
with China, it also was stipulated
that outgoing Chinese shipments
would be halted for one month.
This was secondary to the Japanese
main aim of shutting off war ma
terials going to the central Chinese
government, but the fact that Hanoi
officials declined to renew this ban
was considered significant. Chinese
Generalissimo Chang Kai-chek
must export to buy war materials
Here is how one informant said
| developments unfolded in the past
few days:
To all Japanese inquiries as to
his status, Gov-Gen. Jean Decoux
gave a stock reply: That he merely
is an administrator and that the
Vichy government must handle
political problems.
Some japanese military elements
became impatient, but acquiesced to
Tokio's strategy to 60 over Decouxs S
head and try the Petain government
directly.
Brisk exchanges followed through
diplomatic channels. Vichy, in turn,
| sounded out Berlin, and the Japa-
nese still got nothing but negative
answers.
Thereupon the japanese decided
to sit tight and rely upon Gen
Nishiara's persuasiveness.
This informant said the question
remained moot over the possibility
that Adolf Hitler's attitude was
desire to preserve all bargaining
advantages for an ultimate wider
settlement with Japan, perhaps en-
bracing Batavia, in the Dutch East
Indies.
There also was speculation that
| the Germans themselves might be
prizing this area as a possible
pivot for any future mopping up
campaign against Britain's great
Singapore naval base.

HAMILTON; Bermuda, Aug. g.
The ordinarily placid life of this
British island colony will be thrown
only slightly out Of routine by the
arrival today Of the Duke and
Duchess Of Windsor.
The lack of pageantry was due
partially to the fact that, while the
Duke Is en- route to take over his
post Of governor and commander
IN chief Of the Bahamas, this Is an
unof11cial visit.
Still, the city Of Hamilton was
decked in flags, and the regular
Thursday hah-holiday gave Ber-
mudians q chance to see the Duke
and his American wife on their
drive from the Royal Yacht Club
landing tn Hamilton to Government
House, where they will live until
they leave for the bahamas.
Capt; Groves of the American
export liner Excalibur, making a
special stop here on its trip from
Lisbon to New York, had been in
structed to reach Grassy Bay, out
side Hamilton Harbor, in time for
the Windsors to land in Hamilton
at 2:30 pm. 1t was the Dukes first
visit to Bermuda since 1881, when
he was Prince of Wales.
Assigned to greet the Windsors
aboard the Excalibur were the aides
de camp Of Admiral Sir Charles
Kennedy -Purvis, commander of the
Royal Nays American and West
Indies Squadron stationed at Ber-
muda, and Of Maj. Gen. Denis Kir-
wan Bernard, Governor Of the
colony.
After coming ashore with their
retinue aboard the admiral's barge,
the Windsors were to be greeted by
the Governor, his sister, Mrs. Hast
ings Brooke, and Admiral Purvis.
No ofncial reception speech was
planned but q military guard Of 100
men was detailed to present the
] royal salute.
