Cornell is common knowledge.
 Waterbury For Cornell
 Waterbury's eight delegates to the state convention which opens Tues day night at New Haven, will no doubt hop on the Cornell bandwag- on, despite the lukewarm attitude of J. Warren Upson, former town chairman. Only few days ago Re- publican circles buzzed with rumors that Upson was being considered by Harwood as 8 compromise can- didate for the nomination, but ap- parently nothing came of it.
 Openly in the field against Cor nell are Brig. Gen. John H. Ma chine Gun" Parker, of New Haven, who is too outspoken to suit the G. O. P. leaders and ex-Lieut. Gov. Clifford B. Wilson, and there are several dark horses champing at the bit.
 Same Old Ticket
 The state ticket, headed by Gov. Baldwin, is to be renominated in toto. One of those to be named for another term is State Treasurer Jo- seph Talbot of Naugatuck.
 The convention will hear key note address Tuesday night by Ralph O. Brewster, of Maine, for mer governor and U. s. Senator elect, He replaces Rep. Charles Halleck, of Indiana, who was orig finally scheduled to speak.
 The name of William J. Pape still figures in pre-convention discus sion of the senatorship, but an in- cipient Pape boom was halted when Fairfield county leaders said they would not back the local man.

 to more than 70 per cent of the estimated collections for the entire year.
 Some sources of revenue have yielded less thar was expected, but these will be more than balanced by the large sums received for taxes. Back tax collections, which have been steadily good, will also swell the revenue total
 Will Affect Tax Rate
 The size of the city surplus will have much to do with the tax rate for next year. Even with the sev- eral demands for additional expen- ditures next year, such as those pro- posed for rubbish collection and the six-day week for firemen, the 1941 tax rate should be, from present in- dications, well below the current rate of 325.
 A mill on the tax rate amounts to approximately $160,000, and should there be a surplus this year of about $400,000, this would make possible reduction of two and half mills in the tax rate. without even taking other favorable factors into consideration. If new expenditures are approved, the picture will be changed, but enough SO to prevent sizeable drop in next years tax rate.
