Ryan Urging Labor
 To Protect Rights
Appeals for Working Mans Support on Platform Of
 Annual Living Wage; Don't Trust to Politicians
NEA Telepl1oto

Edward J. Ryan, American Pro- gressive candidate for Congress is making inroads into the ranks of organized labor as a result of his vigorous campaign in behalf of an Old Age Pension law, the com- plete abolishment of the present waiver law and for an annual liv- ing wage for all workers.
 This fact became more apparent as Ryan's followers observe as la boring people have been heard to say that they are going to vote for Ryan for Congress because he is the only one of the three con- gressional candidates who has any kind of a labor platform to offer them.
 Said MT. Ryan yesterday at rally in Torrington, Make no mistake, my political opponents are making you all grand promises today, just as they have in the past, but wait until after the election and hear what they will say to Labor. A politician Is 8 politician all the time, handing out the same type of hot air, making promises to one group against the other, and then reversing themselves and making
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-10-22
omises to your opposition.
 Great Stakes

Great Stakes
 Don't be fooled this year Labor. We have great stakes in this elec- ton. You have the power to elect a man who will stand by you in the hectic days to come, don't fail yourself.
 "Our state must have an Old Age Pension law that will give to every American citizen upon reaching 60 years of age the sum of $60 every month for the rest of their lives
 We will tax all incomes of more than $5,O00 annually and we will tax the incomes of those wealthy fam lilies that live in our state only be- cause they can avoid paying in- come taxes on their immense in- comes in other states.
 We must adopt a living annual wage, similar to those already in existence in many of our leading lr- dustries. We must guarantee la boring people in every branch of industry the right to the security which they are rightfully entitled to, we must give to our laboring people whatever protection we can against another depression and the only way we can do this is to adopt living annual wage law.
 we must abolish the present sys- tenn of compelling people to sign waivers before they are hired in factories. This law I know is un- constitutional and if Labor organ izations will put the law to a test in our courts there is no doubt but what our courts will declare the law unjust.
 Cut Red Tape
 . "You must send to Washington a man who will cut through the red tape and petty politics which are being played there.
 Labor this is your fight, in me you do not have politician, in me you have a man who knows your problems and knows them well. Send me to the Congress of the United States.
 "When you vote for your party, pull the lever, lift up button No. 8 on Congressman and push down button No. 8 on the American Pro- gressive party. .
 "Of course if you are filled with contempt for all major parties there is no better wayt show this con- tempt than to pull the American Progressive lever and vote for only one man, Edward Ryan,"

Anthony J. Cairelli, 25, was ar- rested on a technical charge and held under $1 ,000 bond as a coroner's prisoner. Less than year and a half ago he was the operator of a speedboat which overturned at Lake Quassapaug, Middlebury, the acci- dent costing the lives of William Panucci, 9, and Anthony Turzo, 19, both of this city. An investigation by Coroner William B. Hennessy re- suited in Cairelli being absolved of blame for the boat accident.
 Returning Home
 Mrs. Dereskevich, who lives only few blocks from the church, had gone there to pray. She was cross ing the street when hit by Cairelli's car, which had just turned into Congress avenue from Bank street. It was raining at the time, 2 o'clock, and witness said that the woman had walked out from between two parked cars.
 Caireln halted his car at once and offered to take the woman to the hospital. However, Angelo Cola surdo, g, of 29 Charles street, ad- vised against this, fearing that the injuries might be aggravated, and the police ambulance was called. Colasurdo shielded Mrs. Dereskevich with his coat and umbrella.
 Rev. Joseph J. Valantiejus, pas tor of St. Joseph's church, was called to the scene, and he accom- panied Mrs. Dereskevich to St. Mary's hospital. He administered Extreme Unction. Mrs. Dereskevich died at the hospital at 8:12, with her sons and other relatives at the bedside.
 Dr. Edward H. Kirschbaum, medi- cal examiner, said that death was caused by hemorrhage, with rib and leg fractures as contributing causes
 Test Equipment
 Motor Pasrolman John Murphy investigated for the police. He said that the brakes and windshield wiper of Cairelli's car were in per- feet working order.
 A native of Lithuania, Mrs. Der. eskevich had made her home in Wa terbury for almost 45 years. A faith. full parishioner of St. Joseph's church, she was 8 member of severa church societies, among them the Rosary Confraternity, and the Ro. man Catholic alliance.
 Besides her husband and som Mrs. Dereskevich is survived by an other son, William, and two daugh ters, Mrs. Thomas Brayton of Eas Hartford and Mrs. Ignace Wideicki of Jackson Heights, N. Y.; thre, sisters, Mrs. William Baltromonaitis Mrs. John Verbyla and Mrs. Mi chael Verbyla, all of Waterbury; two brothers, Anthony Vailonis of thi! city and George Vailonis of Water. town and five grandchildren.

BALTIMORE, Feb. 6.-The Eve
ming Sun said today that Gov. Her
bert R. O'Conor, getting ready to
run for a second term at Annapolis,
has selected April as the month in
which to make the public announce
ment of his new candidacy"
This information was confided to
friends who inquired about the Gov
ernor's political plans In order that
they might make their own prepara-
tions for the primary election In
September" the Evening Sun said:
"A primary appears inevitable be-
cause Thomas E. Cook Of Frederick,
an independent candidate for the
Democratic nomination, has deter
mined to stay in the field after once
deciding to get out.
Whether Gov. O'Conor will face
major opposition in the primary is
a problem puzzling his political ad-
visers. Mayor Howard w. Jackson,
his principal opponent In the pri-
mary of four years ago. appears to
regard the 1912 political auguries
as inauspicious, and few Of his lieu
tenants now believe that he will be-
come a candidate.
There have been, however, inter-
mittent reports of political activity
on the part of DR.. H. G. (Curly)
