Schultz Praises YOUNG
As Commissioner and
Defense Executive
-
Says City Fortunate
In Choice Of Heed
Of Boord for b. G.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.


Tribute was paid In the House tt
Commissioner John Russell Younf
late yesterday by Representativ,
Schultz, Democrat, of Indiana, WHIT
has been one of the most active
members Of the House District
Committee.
Representative Schultz, who wa:
defeated for denomination some
time ago, predicted that Mr.. Young
will prove to be one of the mos'
popular Commissioners the Distric,
has ever had and said that as 9
result of his leadership as co-ordi-
nator of civilian defense, Washing
ton today is undoubtedly the best
prepared city in the United States
for war emergency"
Il call the attention of the House
and the citizens Of the District OF
Columbia to the remarkable work
that is being carried on by Mr.
Young" said Mr.. Schultz.
"Just a few short years ago, as
members of this House will recall, a
chaotic condition existed in the Dis
trict Of Columbia. At that time one
Of the Commissioners of the District
resigned. The President reached
down into his magic hat and drew
out the name of one who 1 believe
will prove to be one of the most
popular Commissioners the District
has aver had. I refer to my friend,
who is also the friend of practically
everybody else, John Russell Young.
I'm these war days, when condi-
tions are stern and demanding, the
District OF Columbia is fortunate
indeed in having as president of its
Board Of Commissioners a strong
and forceful character" He and Mr..
Young's cooperative attitude and
personality has aroused admiration
among members of the committee"
Sketches Career.
Mr.. Schultz sketched the Com
missioner's career, pointing out that
Mr.. Young was born in Washing
ton OF long line of native ancestors.
His father served in Congress from
Philadelphia, after service in the
Civil War and participation in the
Gettysburg campaign. He was one
Of the founders of the Philadelphia
Evening Star, and was later chief
Of the Washington bureau of the
New York Tribune and chief execu-
tive clerk Of the United States Sem
ate. His mother was great grand
daughter of prominent Revolution
ary soldier, Thomas Berkley.
Mr.. Schultz spoke of the news
paper work of Mr.. Young on num-
ber OF newspapers and especially The
Evening Star. where he was serving
when selected by the President for
the post of District Commissioner.
Those of us who are acquainted
with his family are confident that
his inspiration comes through his
very gracious wife, the former Miss
Nettie Griffith," Mr.. Schultz said.

in the United States July 8, 1929,
aboard the Hamburg at New York
City. Shortly afterward, he was EN-
ployed as craftsman with the Long
Island Railroad. a position which
he held until he submitted his resig-
nation while in Germany In Decem-
Der, 1898.
Barth left the United States May
26. 1898. and returned to Germany
He had filed a declaration of inten-
ton to become a citizen october 10.
1880. However. he forfeited his claim
to citizenship by leaving the United
States.
Barth was an active member of
the German American Bund and on
his return to Germany became an
intelligence ofiicer in the German
Army. He attended the sabotage
school operated by the German high
command and also acted as an in
structor in the methods of sabotag-
ing railroads and railroad equip
ment. He Is regarded as an expert
IN the sabotage Of railroads and the
Justice Department said he would
be expected to concentrate his &C
tivity in that field should he re-
turn to the United States.
Meanwhile, there were indications
that the end of the trial of the eight
saboteurs was near.
Only two of the eight enemy
agents still await an opportunity tc
tell their own stories to the military
commission. These two may take the
witness stand today, leaving the
closing arguments of the prosecu-
ton and defense staff of Army off,
GERS to bring the long proceedings
to a close.
Six of the eight Nazis already
have taken the witness stand, ac-
cording to the latest communique
issued by the trial commission. The
official statement did not disclose
their identity, or reveal the names
of the witnesses the defense called
in their behalf.
The last communique was given
to the press when the commission
adjourned late yesterday. 1t said:
The commission reconvened after
the noon recess at 1885.
Examination and cross examina-
ton of various defense witnesses
continued this afternoon.
THE sixth defendant took the
witness stand in his own behalf
The commission adjourned at 4:41
pm. to reconvene tomorrow morn
ing at 10 o'clock"
The two Nazi agents who have not
yet testified we're reported to be
Herman Otto Neubauer, a German
born merchant sailor, and Henry
Harm Heinch, a native of Hamburg
who first came to the United States
in 1896 and returned to Germany
three years later, according to thu
FBI, at the expense Of the German
government. While in the Unitee

ported by the FBI as having com
posed the quartet who sneaked int,

marine on the Florida coast, not ia
from Jacksonville. Kerling was sal,
to have been the leader of the Flor

Though the communique did NO

learned there were three OF then

New homes for the present are out of
the question which puts emphasis on taking
care of what you have. Priorities permit
repairs and essential renovizing to maintain
your home in livable condition. You should
make very careful survey of what is needed
closing cracks, crevices around doors and
windows; providing storm sashes-for
predicted fuel shortage is going to make it
necessary to take every means to protect
yourself. Insulating will be permitted-and
it won't be expensive-but it will help lot.
Another thing don't forget to have us
do that painting Of course, we'll use the
new Dupont House Paint-with its miracle
quality which creates powder that carries
off the accumulated dirt with the rain A
Dupont feature that keeps the house looking
fresh and tidy.

ous floor fight could be avoided.
 Despite late attempts to ease him out of the picture, County Jailer Nicholas w. Mona of New Haven, well-known in Waterbury, was in the lead for the nomination for state treasurer to succeed Dr. Frank Anastasio, also of New Ha- ven, now in the Army. Others in the field are State Barber CommiS- sinoer Joseph DePaola of Meriden, president of the state Young Demo- crats; Judge Philip Pastore of New Haven and Pietro Diana, also of New Haven. Also mentioned was "a New Haven banker, otherwise unidenti- fled. Mrs. Anastasio was also a pos sible candidate but appeared to have little support.
 Mayor Vincent A. Scully of Wa terbury, chairman of the Brass City's delegation of 46, declared emphatic ally again last night that he would not accept the nomination for at- torney- general.
 As the opening hour for today's session of the convention arrived it was obvious that business would lag far behind the set schedule, as was the case at the opening ses- sion last night.

 Only a change in the proposed ticket set-up would give MT. Gormley a chance for the nomination, it ap- peared. The pre-nomination slate was based on the theory that the candidate for attorney general would come from Hartford or Mid- dlesex county and the candidate for state treasurer from New Haven. It was not believed that MT. Gormley, a prominent trial lawyer, would be interested in the latter nomination.
 The dopesters had the nomtra- ton "all set" for States Attorney Thomas c. Flood of Middlesex county, in whose behalf a quick boom was launched last night.

Town Chairman Maurice F. Tangney was one of the busiest men at the convention last night. He was kept on the go issuing creden- tials to alternates who were named to replace regular Waterbury dele gates who were unable to attend.
 The contrast between the size ot the city delegations at the Repubh- can and Democratic state conven- tions is very marked. At the Re- publican convention last week, Wa terbury, fourth largest city in the state, had eight delegates, while almost every village had four. In the Democratic convention, Water bury has 46 delegates.
 This allotment of delegates repre- sents, in a way, the fundamental difference between the parties. The Republicans seek rural and small town support principally; the Demo- crats have their biggest voting strength in the cities.
 Jocketing for the congresslona nominat tion in the fifth district was underway. Leading candidates are Mayor William A. Patten of Tor rington and Laurence A. Kenny oi Waterbury.
 Observers believed that Governor Hurley would receive one of the greatest ovatiOns in state political history when he addressed the con vention today. Even to most oi those who opposed him in the past he has become a political hero.
