COPS SUPPORT
 DEFENSE ISSUES
Present Administration Is Condemned for Secrecy
 By State Central Group

Hartford Conn, Nov. Is.-(UP)- A resolution adopted by the Repub- Heal State Central Committee to- day demanded "that the fullest pow CT of the American people Do de. voted to our nations defense" but condemned the secrecy and uncer- tainty with which the present ad. ministration has carried on the de- fense effort"
 ITO the end that the defense of the United States shall be invinci- ble," the resolution said, i've be. lieve thath no sacrifice Is too great, and that all political conSiderat ations must give way before the necessity of such defense"
 The committees resolution, how ever, assailed "the circumstances and methods by which this country has been brought to the verge of war without effective coordination of the country's industry and la bor."
 "rhe administration failure to handle adequately the domestic problems ha sseriously impaired and hampered the national defense ef- fort" the resolution said.
 The resolution opened with the statement That the Republican party, in so far as 1t is represented by this committee, reaffairs its full support of every effort in the de- ense of the United States o Amer ica."
 State Chairman J. Kenneth Brad ley issued a statement which said: ''T'he Republican party cannot delay any longer in taking a stand on these issues. The very life of the party is at stake. This is only the beginning of announcement of poli- cies that must be made from time to time by the party.
 Our country has already commit ted itself, to give every aid pos- sible to Britain and to nations at war against aggression and dicta- tcrship This great effort must not be hampered and delayed by the inefficiency of the adminuistra- ton or by failure to meet and pre- vent ths delay and loss occasioned by strikes in defense industries.
 Q. s. Sen. John A. Danaher, lead- ing nor -interventionist, asked the committee by letter if he could ap- apear before it to give off-the-rec- ord information on Washington mat ters. At date soon will be set for this meeting.
 Chairman Bradley announced the appointment of Frank M. Lynch, West Havrn, as assistant secretary of the committee.

In six of tho seven accAdents, liquor was involved. In two instances the pedestrian was intoxicated, in two more the pedes- trian "had been drinking" In two more the operator was intoxicated.
 Five of these pedestrians were struck on Thanksgiving Day with iiouor e factor in each instance, There was c sixth fatal accident on Thanksgiving Day last year, an automobile versus automobile colli- sion.

Eight Died During Holiday Celebration, Six Deaths Being Attributed to Drink; Supt. Roach Appeals
 to Waterbmians to Cooperate

Accidents have increased this year by approximately 30 per cent and fatalities by approximately 20 per cent. If holiday accidents increased at the same rate it would mean Connecticut would have up Co 800 accidents from Wednesday through Friday and that nine or ten people who are alive on Wednesday would be dead Friday as 6 result of auto mobile accidents.
 "Be ready for sudden changes in tho weather" Commissioner Mo. Carkhy warned. with winter just around the corner, drivers should be prepared for any change In the weather. The first storms seem to be the most hazardous.
 GAS for dxinking-the record is A grim story that speaks for It. seii. No responsible person will get behind the wheel after he has been drinking. And on alert driver is watching for the incautiouB actions of pedestrians-lncl the drunk" on pedestrian.
