to their advance appeared to be de-

by the fleeing enemy.
United Press dispatches from the
Swiss-German frontier said Rund-

have taken personal command of
the whiting Nazi armies in the south,
establishing his headquarters in the
Bregenzer forest southeast of Lake

Far to the north, British Second

Canadian First Army forces on
the British left flank broke the
enemy defenses before WILHELM

German resistance at both ends

General George S. Patton's Third

Wallace Calls "Bolt"
Report "Ridiculous"
State Senator Comments on RumOr of DissensiOn in
Ranks of Democratic legislators Calls 1t Speculation

Senator Patrick Wallace Cd. Wa
terbury) today declared as "ridicu-
lous' the report published in local
paper this morning that he and
Senator Edward P. Egan would bolt
the Democratic side of the Senate
and form a coalition with the Re-
publican members. Senator Egan
could not be contacted for a state
ment. but sources close to him said
he felt the same way as Senator
Wallace.
The latter in his statement to The
Democrat today declared that such
report was pure speculation" and
arose from various minor contro-
versies that have ensued amcEg
Democratic members of the senate.
He pointed out that similar differ
ences of opinion take place among
the Republicans also in the House
and Senate but no report of their
boiling the party develops into SIM
liar speculation.
The report stated that the prob
able action resulted from the party
gathering held IN brldSeport ldst
Friday nieht and attended by the
two local senator's and Mayor Mon
agan. Threat of any split in the
ranks did not appear at the meeting,
it was declared today. Others said
to be siding with the local legislators
on such a speculative move were
reported to be Sens, Coles, Null
vihill and Leipner of Bridgeport and
Constable of Torrington.
1t is known that the Democrats
| in the Senate have held up the
major appointments of Governor
Baldwin until they are assured their
share of the patronage being sought
on minor court appointments and
cor,ty commissionerships. 1t was
reported elsewhere that all the DEM
ocrats in the Senate concurred on
this procedure.

may seem a minor one until WI

our city's government. We are de-
priving the people of their sover.
eign right to elect and permitting
one man to appoint those who viii
serve our interests on the Board o.

"Such Capitalization or the fun

ual in community Of this size car

or specialization of government
controlled by a few through ap-
pointees. Politically speaking il
slams the door in the face of young
and capable aspirants who NIGH
seek entry into politics through
such minor posts as membership
on the board"
Local Republicans are said to be
seeking a change in the terms OF
the Bill SO that the chief assessor
would be appointed by two third
majority of the board of aldermen
instead of by the board of finance
as proposed by the Bill.
The Bill is comparable to that
presented by the Republicans two
years ago which contained the al
dermanic feature. At that time the
bill was passed but subsequently
was vetoed by the Governor The
present bill was submitted by the
administration.
If the Bill should be favored with
another release from the committee,
but containing the aldermanic fea-
lures requested by the Republicans,
it can be assured that it will be de-
feated in the Democrat controlled
Senate. For this reason it would
seem that the Bill is doomed for de-
feat.
The current Bill stems from the
survey of the city's evaluation set
up made by Walter W. Walsh state
tax commissioner. The latter urged
a revaluation of all city property
which now is being undertaken by
the firm of George B. Koran and
Co., retained by the city. However
the commissioner did not call for
the proposed new Set-up within the
assessors office and at no time in
the report directly blamed the pres
ent staff of commissioners for the
assessment valuations now preva-
lent. Rather, the report revealed
that the city was the victim of IAN
archaic system prevalent through
out Connecticut" and that the con-
duct of the local office had been
of high standard under such condi-
tons.
At present there are but four
members of the five man commits
a vacancy having been
created by the recent retirement of
Miss Jane Kilduff who had served
the city for 40 years. Should the
Bill fail to pass, the commissioners
now in office will continue to serve.
They are John Kilduff, chief as
SCISSOR and Joseph McGinniss both
Democratic appointees and John
Jenusaitis and Robert Stone, G. o.
P. appointees. Miss Kilduff also had
been a De- moe "a tic appointtee.
Terms Of office are five years.
