October output of cars and trucks set a record high for the month.
 Steel operations were at e6.6 per cent of capacity. up a half point from the previous week and on a tonnage basis, an all-time record high.

M'COOK IS DOOMED FOR GUARDIANSHIP

Hartford. Conn, Nov. 23-(UP)- Republicans opposed to the selection of Fairfield county leader J. Ken meth Bradley as Republican state chairman today rallied behind the candidacy of Lieut.. t.-Col, Anson T. McCook. prominent Hartford attor. ney and party leader.
 A meeting of the party's state cen- tral committee has been called for December to elect a new chairman and to act on the resignations of Judge Albert s. Mill. West Hart ford, as the committees executive secretary, and of Rep. Charles s. Bissell, Suffield, as treasurer.
 Bradley, however, was regarded as far in the lead for the post, mainly because he is backed by Governor Raymond E. Baldwin and National Committeeman Samuel F. Pryor, Jr. Sources close to the governor told the United Press recently the gov- ernor favored a man close to him for chairman, and indicated Bradley was his choice. It was emphasized the governor did not, however, in- tend to influence the committees action in any way.
 It was understood that retiring State Chairman Benjamin E. Har- wood and Clarence r. Baldwin. Woodbridge, an aid. virtually had conceded Bradley's election and would not oppose it.s
 McCook was executive secretary to former Gocerror Charles A. Temple ton of Waterbury, and has run for public office many times in Hartforo county He is backed by forces not frequently in accord with Governor Baldwln's policies.

MIGRANT WORKERS FEDERAL PROBLEM

Washington, Nov. 23-(UP)-Fed- eraf attempts to deal with the problem of 100000 destitute, mi gratory workers will have to be based on grants-in-aid to states Rep. John H. Tolan, D., Cal, said today
 Tolan, chairman of house com mlttee Investigating the problem, said his group probably would make this recommendation to congress sometime in January.
 Lack of uniformity in state laws governing residence of workers, he said, greatest avast army of desti- tute migrants who have lost citizen ship in one state without attaining 1t 1n another, The care of these "stateless" citizens creates a prob lem in each state they visit.
 Tolan said South Dakota, in an attempt to keep them out, has made 1t a penitentiary offense to trans port them across the state line.
 Tolan said he believed the federal grants-in-aid approachc was the only way in which uniformity could be obtained in state residence laws.

the law. The authority cannot be delegated. The engineering or edu- cation work of the community for safety can be delegated, but not enforcement.
 The greatest importance of acci- dent investigation serves as a basis for intelligent, effective traffic law enforcement-selective enforcement. Selective enforcement recognizes the fact that there are not enough po- lice men to patrol adequately all of the streets and highways. Since this is true, it is necessary to concen- trate the police at the places where accidents are happening.
 But even with this scientific ap- preach to this modern complex problem the police need a great deal 'of assistance And to whom must they turn? To the people of the community. Without the assist ance of each individual in assum- ing the personal responsibility which is his in this traffic problem the police can not reach any achievement.
 We ask your assistance in your driving and in your walking.

Nine Killed Here In
 Traffic Accidents
94Os Record to Date Pointed Out By Police Chief as Reason for Caution By Operators Pedestrians

Mine people have met their death in traffic accidents in Waterbury during the current year." Police Supt. William J. Roach announced today in his weekly statement. we do not want this needless waStage of life to increase. Give your un- limited cooperation at all times and Waterbury will become a safer city in which to live" he appealed.
 Today the police have to con- tend with road patrol, accident in- |vestigation, record analysis and se- lective enforcement which were un- known to the horse drawn vehicle period, Supt. Roach declared.
 His statement in full reads:
 To-day the common talk centers around the traffic problem Did this traffic problem develop overnight? Not quite, but it came fast as we have seen. The problem was huge before the road builders were ready for it and before the educators re- alized that they had a new responsi- bility Many of our highways are still unsuited for modern automobile travel, and even today, few young sters are being taught to drive by competent teachers. Law makers were as unprepared as the engineers and educators. Laws designed to reg ulate horse drawn vehicles were ap- piled to the automobile and much new legislation was absurdly repres- sive. The city of Boston, for example. following the lead of the English parliament, passed an ordinance which provided that no vehicle be driven upon any public way at a sped greater than five miles pel hour. When driven in daytime, the vehicle should be preceded by a man waving a red flag and at night, by man carrying an illuminated red lantern.
 The police were no more prepared for the traffic problem than were the engineers, the teachers or the law makers. There were traffic policemen even during the days of the horse drawn vehicles to regulate the movement of traffic in central business districts of large cities, but that was their sole function.
 Knowing from the records that accidents have been reduced and recognizing the logic in the argu- ment that they can be reduced by men because they are caused by men the questions may be asked: Can police action bring accidents under control? Is this police job? The answer is, yes, for two important reasons. First, the police have as their broad responsibility the pro- lection of life and property from any action committed in violation of the law. Since a large part of the causes of motor traffic accidents are violations Of the law, the control of traffic and the prevention of ac- cidents falls within the responsl- bility of the police. The second reason why the police must accept responsibility is that the most et fective weapon for dealing with motor traffic accidents s traffie law enforcement, and the police alone have the authority to enforce

Walkers Plan To Aid
 Flren1en Faces Defeat

The plan of Alderman Burton R. Walker, Republican, to seek an increase in the fire depart ment appropriation in the 1941 budget to allow for the appoint ment of 12 new firemen is not ex- pected to be successful, since the eight Democratic aldermen will undoubtedly vote for the budget in the form recommended by the board of finance.
 Under the charter, MT. Walker would have to secure 10 of the 15 members to vote for the ap- propriatiOn increase. The char ter allows the aldermen to reduce the budget figures recommended by the finance board, but provides that increases can be made only by vote of at least 10 members.
 MT. Walker claims that the 12 new firemen are needed to allow members of the department to have two or more days off each month. Administration members claim, on the other hand, that the men can be given time off

RUMANIA'S WIDENS
 NAZI INFLUENCE
(Continued from Page lD

Continued from Page D course of the war in that direction, partial destruction of the Rumanian oil wells might well have a vital effect on the whole course of the conflict. If any weaker ing of Ger man oil supplies became evident, Russia would be in a position to show her real feelings.
 It would seem that some such development is what Russia eagerly awaits, now that the German de- sign in southeastern Europe is un- fielding. The German high command, of course, must be fully aware of this dangerous factor in the Balkin situation.
 Thus, Herr Hitler cannot be qu:.e clear in his mind concerning the possible effects of a drive into the middle east. The obscurities prob- ably explain Germany's delay in extending the war to the southeast. Much diplomatic preparation still remains to remove obstacles which in the end may prove to be immov- able.

 WANTS RETRIAL

Boston, Nov. 23- (UP)-Though the Massachusetts supreme court has ruled that Former Gov. James M. Curley must pay back to the City of Boston $37, ,957 which he cor ruptly received" after settlement of suit against the city while he was mayor, he said today he would seek trial on grounds of new evil dence.

 Curley, upon learning of the de- cision, issued a statement in which he said that the ruling was based only on the record of the case which did not contain evidence giv- en in the subsequent perjury trial of Frederick M. Graves, Braintree insurance adjustor, who was con- victed and sentenced to jail for IS months.
