No Economics in a Vacuum

competition were possible, and pro-
vided that the United States were
willing to ADJUST its standard of
living in some relationship to what
ever standard of living the Nazis
might impose on Europe, it might
be possible. But it seems useless to
make these calculations in vac
uum.
The Nazis have no idea of COM
peting in what we have always re-
garded as a free basis with other
economics. They worm their way in.
They work internal political press
ure to slant trade in favor of their
economy, and this goes as far as
internal revolution or the threat of
it, to say nothing of bribery, loss
leader sales. exclusive privileges,
and every technique of political
and social pressure which gives
them the bulge on anyone who
wishes to compete as a matter of
straight business.

(Contlnued from Page D the city election by holding the party's normal vote, by attracting independents and by getting an al most solid Italian American vote.
 The Democratic strategy, on thu other hand, is aimed at winning much of the Yankee vote from the Republicans, holding the Italian. American and the rest of the regular Democratic vote, attracting other racial groups and likewise gaining support of voters not affiliated witE either major party.
 The Independent Democrats whose campaigning Is being limited to personal appeals, is seeking only a strong protest vote against the ad. ininistration.
 Leaders Satisfied
 Both Republican and Democratic leaders expressed themselves as sat. isfied with the progress of the cam paign, each side saying that 1t h benefitting by the way things ar going. Democrats are obviousI pleased that MT. Portfolios cam paign has not thus far been as az gressive as had been expected. How ever, Mir. Perriello feels that house toulouse canVassing and persona interviews are better methods oi winning votes than rallies ana speeches and he is pleased with the efforts being made.
 The Republicans will probably have to fire all their big guns dur. ing the next two weeks if they exc pect to rouse the voters, for the Democrats have the advantage of being "in" and need not carry on as vigorous Q drive for votes.
 Campaign issues introduced SO fag have been few end have been de- bated only mildly. There has been none of the arguments and dispute, often verging on the bitter, that marked previous campaigns.

Red Army Is Fiercely
 Attacking Germans

I rections of Mozhaisk and Maloyaro- slayets," it said. Several Fascist attacks were repulsed."
 The communique said guerrillas already were active in all areas the Germans had taken in the Kalinin sector, 100 miles north of Moscow, workers and peasants having tnitde to harass the Germans by every means.
 Germans Stlll Battle A special Moscow broadcast said the Germans were making repeated attempts to break through the Rus- sian lines in the Vyazma sector west of the city.
 The Germans threv' their entire 9O0th tank brigade with upwards of 250 tanks, withdrawn from the Lem ingrad area, into an attack in this direction, 1t was said, and were stopped after ferociotIs attempt to break Jarough. After German unit was thrown back in an adjoining sector, it was added:
 One Russian unit, in a small local engagement, destroyed 10 tanks, 40 motor vehicles, eight field guns and three mine throwers and killed more than 200 Germans, the dispatch said.
 Suffer Heavy Losses
 Of the Leningrad front, the Ger mans were suffering heavy losses in Russian counter attacks which were now proceeding day and night.
 AS had been indicated, 1t was as- serted that the Germans had dug themselves in and the Russians en- joyed the initiative all along this front A radio Moscow broadcast yesterday admitted that on tho Russian left wing, toward the south, the Germans had driven a wedge into the defense lines and had approached "an important popu- lated area"
 On the main highway to the west, however, the Russians were reported to have broken up a wedg- ing attempt and 1t was asserted that the German 7th infantry division, apparently crack unit, had been soundly beaten.
 This dispatch asserted that the Germans were attacking with wedges of 40 tanks and upwards.
 It said that in one counter-at- tack the Russians threw the Gers mans out of two important "popu- lated places, both road functions which dominated the surrounding areas.
 Special dispatches from the southern front said Germans. rein- forced by Italians, were so badly de- fated in a Russian counter attack that Italian tank and cavalry units and two infantry regiments had to be withdrawn.
 They said that at Rostov, at the mouth of the Don river, gateway to the Caucasus, the populace was building Qualifications and trenches even during the frequent air raids and that special attachments of volunteers had been formed to throw hand grenades and fire bottles at German tanks.

Tn addition, Daniels claims that he is suffering from an ascending infection of the kid. neys which will continue until 1t results in his death.
 The Norwich lodge, described as the owner of the race-track, is held at fault for failing to obtain @ Ii. cense for the contest from the state police, and neglecting to have the track inspected by the same offi- cials as required by law. A hole g to 10 inches in depth and concealed by dust and loose materials, Is flot- ed as having been responsible for the accident.
 Companion Suit The companion suit, directed ex- clusiveiy at the Elks' lodge, con- tends that on March IS, 1884, the fraternal organization formed corporation or voluntary association known as the Norwich Elks Lodge Recreation Association, Inc. On March 2i, 1884, "ElkS' Field" scene of the mishap, was transferred to the ownership of the new associa- ton, in compliance with rules of the National Order of Elks prohib. iting the holding of this variety of property by member branches or lodges.
 All income derived from the track, 1t is pointed out, has been received by the defendant, and 1t has paid all taxes on the property. l.. addition the lodge has not col. lected interest on the transfer. This arrangement, Daniels maia- tains, was made for the purpose of avoiding liability, defrauding creditors and concealing the assets of the defendant. The name of the association was subsequently, changed to the Uorwich Recreation Association, Inc.
 At the time of the occurrence, Daniel was 28 years old, married | A1lQ aLk Ckup4OyC VI vAAC CAAAsCA ASesseSe Tire and Rubber Company. Since the original complaints were lodged here on February 21, l940 and July 30, l94O, a total of 59 motions have been filed, 38 in the former suit and 21 in the latter.
 Lawyers in Case Appearing for the plaintiff are the law firm of Pullman and Com ley of Bridgeport, and Atty. Jer- ome E. Respess of Hartford. Repre- senting the defendants are Atty. John H. Cassidy of this city, and Bronson, Lewis, Bronson and Up- son, also of Waterbury, for the Nor" wich Recreation Association, Inc.
 In an answer filed by Atty. Cas- sldy, the defense contends that the plaintiff signed an entry blank prior to the contest, in which he agreed to hold blameless in the event of loss or injury, the Amer ican Motorcycle Association, the contest committee. local manage- ment, and the track-owners or les- sees.

 German reaction was not known immediately, but German army ati- thorities hold many hostages in the Nantes area, which according tc Vichy sources, contain many radical worker clements.
 The assassination was blamed on 6 new outbreak Of "ComnauniSt terrorist" activity after Q lapse of about three weeks.
 Nantes is one of the most irnpor- tait German army bases in the coastal area.
 Holtzs killing was the first in French occupied territory since Capt. Scheben of the German transport corps was shot at Paris Sept. 1G.
 For that killing-of the highest ranking German ofiicer involved up to today-the Germans shot 12 French hostages by order of Gen Joachim Won stuelpnagel, German commander in chief in France. The last reported attack against Germans was the non-fatai shoot- ing of two customs guards Oct. 12 on the Calons-Sur -Haone line be- tween occupied and Iiloccupied ter- Titory.

 Revolt flared in the Kavalla dis trict and spread through the prov- irce of Drama as result of "Bul- garian savagery," he reported. Quoting cables from ofncial sources as recently as Oct. 17 and later information, he said, "accord- ing to a conservative estimate, bas- ed on a statement by eyewitnesses official sources place the victims of Bulgarian savagery at Drama, Ka- valla and zikne at 15y000."
 "The village of Doxaton was raE. cd to the ground and left 6 heap Ci smoking rtiins," he said.
 "The Greeks put up a fight, ale though they were practically un- armed, and killed 330 Bulgars and seven Germans" he said.

Lynch ef1- deavored to bring about 6 meeting with @ representative of the cas- ualty company, and communicated with them to that end. Failure of the concern to respond to repeated communications, however, tempo rarily halted all attempts in that direction.
 Recently offers were submitted to MT. Lynch, none of which was re. garded as satisfactory, and the cor- poration counsel pointed out at ttht time that final decision as to the acceptability of the amount de. pended upon the discretion of the board of finance. If the board does not approve the settlement at to- nights meeting, the Maryland firm will either have to submit more generous offer, or else court litiga- ton will continue.
 The casualty company allegedly issued bonds amounting to $10000 in behalf of Daniel J. Leary during the conspiracy case. When the former city official disappeared de- mand was made upon them for pay- ment, which, 1t is charged, they persistently neglected to heed.
