President Signs Measure
For Coast Guard Reserve
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt signed today
legislation establishing a new Coast
Guard Reserve patterned after ex-
isting Naval Reserve.
The Coast Guard plans to call
up at once 100 commissioned officers,
l26 warrant officers and 1920 men.
Maintenance of such a Reserve is
expected to cost about $500, 900
annually.
Coast Guard officials said the Re-
serve was needed to guard against
sabotage in harbors and inland
waterways. Most of those called
for the Reserve are expected to be
owners and crews of small craft
throughout the country.
The new legislation also would
convert the existing military
Coast Guard Reserve into an aux
iliary.

HOLIDAY WEEKEND FOR INTERMEDIATES
Business Activity Curtail. ed Today; Many Leave
 City for Days Outing

Bushes sactlvity was ct Q stand still as Waterbury observed the Me- mortal Day holiday today. Hundreds of cars streamed to and from the city and traffic on state highways was reported to be the heaviest of the year. Despite somewhat chilly weather this morning many headed for Seashore and lake resorts.
 The annual Memorial Day parade attracted Q large crowd to the downtown section this morning. Other patriotic programs were scheduled f rotoday and tonight.
 Many draftees and former Na- tional Quardsmen now in the reg ular army were seen in uniform, enjoying weekend furloughS from camp. A special train brought moro than 100 members of Batteries E. and C., 20eth Coast Artillery, from Camp Edwards, Mass, to this city.
 The New Haven railroad and bus companies opertaing from this city reported unusually heavy passenger travel. Extra coaches were in ser- vice last night and today.
 Many Wtaerburlans do not have to work tomorrow and are enjoying c long holiday weekend. Most business places were closed today, along with public buildings. Nearly oil factory workers had c holiday, the only ones working being those in departments where especially vital defense orders are being produced.

 Only once did the General AS. soinbly sec fit t0 discuss the cFit- iCal world situation. That was when the House passed Q FesOlu- ton rnemoriallxlng Congress to pass the lease-lend bill, and Rep. Walter Howe, R., Ltchfleld, and Rep. A. A. Riblcoff, D., Hartford, delivered excellent addresses.
 Since then, this leglslature has been concerned almost solely with jobs. Legislatlon has been held up, weeks have been wasted in dO- ing nothing. A session which could have been concluded in little moro than two months has dragged into five months. And now that the pressure Is on, no one seems tO care too much except those who are interested ln patronage.
 Veteran legislators report this Is the worst session in memory. For weeks, Republicans in the House deliberately stalled all action in an effort by q group to obtain a su- perior court nomination for former Gov. Raymond Y. Baldwin. This finally fell through.
 Now, scores of minor court judg- es, prosecutors and clerks crowd the legislative halls to make sure they are not dealt out when c judeship slate is drafted. Jobs which call for salaries of $500 and si,000 appeared to be far more important to many persons than national defense or the state of the union
 Some of the legislators say pri- yately the whole session has been q waste of time, and wished they had stayed home. T have never seen anything 50 boring" was the way one man put 1t.
 The person greatly disappointed at failure of former Gov. Baldwin to land on the superior court was Republican state Chairman J.
 Kenneth Bradley. The chairman is a law partner of the former chief executive.
 Once 1t became established that Baldwin was out of the running for the bench, Bradley seemed to lose interest in judgeshlps and al- He'd patronage fields. There were some who said Bradley would not be disappointed if all the minor court nominations went to the governor.
 Baldwin, It now appears, will be candidate again for reelection in l942. Perhaps Governor Hurley did not name him to the bench be- cause he was angry at the audit Baldwin called in the State Public Works Department. Or perhaps, Governor Hurley-a f1ghter-did not want to be put in the position of naming a potential opponent to the

Hartford, Oonfi., May 30-(UP) Random reflections on the shape of things as the General Assembly lumberS Into It's final days:
 With the world in flames and America on the verge of war, this legislature has broken oil records in conducting vast delaying &C., ton for patronage purposes. The only person high in the state gov- ernment or in the legislature who has taken cogni2ance of the Inter- national situation has been Gov ernor Hurley.

VI RShtAS9s
 The situation has been somewhat bettered In the past few days, but the talk of the session has been the failure of Governor Hurley to con. fide in any of the major Democra. tic leaders In the legislature.
 Neither Senator Albert L. Coles, the Senate Majority Leader, were on the so-ealled inside" of the admin istration.
 Both admitted frankly several times during the session they were not consulted on legislative matters and other things, especially patron- age. As c result, both senate and house Democrats were continually In the dark about administration policies and appointments until the laSt-Ininute.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-05-30

The mystery os the legislative term both among friends and foes of the administration was why Governor Hurley renewed the contract of former State Finance Commissioner o. Glenn Saxon at $500 . month.
 So far as can be learned, eax- on's duties were absolutely minor and he appeared only rarely at the capitol.
 Now that state Auditor Lewis W. Phelps is nbout to become finance commissioner the fate of several persons employed by tho state on special contracts appears doomed. Phelps Is opposed to hlr- Ing persons outside tho govern. ment.

The legislature failed to produce a single outstanding new member. Of course, there was little oppor- tunity for anyone to make show because of the great stall" If anyone is to be honored, how. ever, it is Senator Alfred M. Bing- ham, D., Salem, who went down the line for about every "soak the rich" measure in the hopper.
 Bingham impressed everyone witt, hls sincerity on the measures he sponsored and he went down fight ing for all of them.
 Senator Joseph P. Cooney, D.. Hartford, who observers agreed should have boen the senate major. ity leader, was relegated to a minor role by the administration because he was opposed by Hartford Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy.
 Cooney, an able legislator, spent his time asking embarrassing ques- tions of his party leadership. And in party caucuses, 1t was Cooney, Sen- ator Coles, Senator Michael V. Blansfield, Waterbury and Senator Joseph B. Downes, Norwich, who did all the work and answered the ques. tons.
