CONDEMNED men
FAIL TO ESCAPE

SAN QUENTIN, Cal, Feb. o.
NH-Three occupants of San Quen-
tin PRISONS death row, awaiting
gas chamber execution for Califor-
MA Sayings, made a desperate
bid for freedom today. but were
empowered by guards.
They were Alfred Cavazos, 80,
scheduled to die tomorrow for the
murder of San Francisco jewel
ry store owner; Djolry Maggie, 80,
and S. ]. Kelso, Is.
Cavazos was shot in the side by
guard during the struggle and
Warden Clinton W. Duffy said the
execution may be delayed.
Duffy said the escape attempt
was made just after Father James
P. Haran and Chaplain Harry
WorWick had completed the daily
divine services in death row. on
the fifth floor of the prison this
morning.
Guard W. A. Patterson was NOV
ing table which had been used
as an altar when Nagle leaped on
him. Cavazos and Kelso ran into
the corridor During the melee,
M. E. Peterson, a gun guard sta
toned above the cell block, shot
Cavazos in the right side.
Patterson suffered severe scrat-
ches on his face and body from
wire used as weapon by Nagle.
Duffy said that all the men had
taken wire from their beds as part
Of their escape plan.
Nagle was scheduled to enter
the gas chamber March 2, while
the date for Kelso's execution had
not been set. Both were placed in
solitary confinement.

Veterans Seniority

Having already lived through the past ten years or more of social progress ana economic reformation and expecting to experience many more years ln the lu- ture we may well begin to realize now what we are in for when we consider the troubles already being encountered OH veterans seniority and reemployment.
 This problem in all it's diversities is an apt example of the complexities Whlch will inteclace the attempts at solution. In the matter of seniority some equltaole and well defined solution must be de- ternined soon, as Army authorizes tell us that some OO,000 of the million men to be released in the next year will seek return to their old jobs. It IS grave problem facing employers and union leao- CTS right here in Waterbury.
 At present the problem has become confused because of the diverse and con- tradictory interpretations of the seniority clause made by different agencies. The crux of the situation arises when a vet eran is reemployed through a procedure whereby a non-veteran, who has higher seniority, is replaced.
 According to Mai. General Hershey head of Selective Service veteran gets his job back without any "ifs, ands or butS". Yet member of the U. 5. Lapor Department in recent memorandum de- clareS that the veteran may or may not get his job back depending upon his place on the seniority list.
 The U. S. Justice Dept, up to this time, Is fence-straddling and is instructlng Us attorneys to represent the veterans suing for reinstatement, as they are bound to under law, but at the same time cautions them to remember that the law is vague, es yet, and they should make every et- fort in helping the court to arrive at proper interpretation of the law.
 Tn Rhode Island legislation has been enacted whereby veteran is given sen iority rights equal to the time he served In the armed forces, in addition to those rights he had before he left. Yet one War Labor Board has ruled that veter- an may not be reinStated unless he ac- cepts all the terms and conditions of enl- ployment under a union contract, which, of course, means acceptance of member ship in the union. Various other rulings and measures have been promulgated within the past few weeks.
 Whatever comes forth let there be no mockery of the interests of the veterans. We do not advocate giving away the country to these men and the greater majority of them are not looking for gratuities, but We do urge sincere effort toward an equitable solution Of thelr problem on the part of all.

Argentine Changing Face

There has been lot of difference of opinion in Washington, D. c. about the underlying reasons of behavior by Argen- tina. When Secretary Hull and Under Secretary Sumner Welles were tops in the State Department they couldn't agree, either. The brilliant Mr. WelleS took the position that plenty of honey and soft talk would bring Argentina to its senses. Secretary Hull was in favor of treating the big Republic tough, and he spanked" considerably. But Secre- tary Stettinius has the same qualities as President Truman in bringing people together" He proved it at San Fran cisco in admitting Argentina to the Con- ference. In fact, he shot both barrels of the diplomatic gun and made Soviet Russia like it-or, more properly, stand for it!
 Mexico was just as bad a neighbor in World War l. But she was forgiven years ago - and has behaved with the help of lot of American Good Neigh bor' finances Practically none of the Latin American Republics are within shooting distance of democratic stand ards. But Uncle Sam is a patient old boy and he is gradually improving the behavior of the stubborn Latins.

have served in the office were six men who became Presidents Others in the list included Cordell Hull, Charles E. Hughes, William Jennings Bryan, Elihu Root, James G. Blaine, Daniel Webster, John c. Calhoun, Henry Clay, John Mar shall and John Jay. There is no reason why any secretary of state ever should be of less than presidential quality. How ever, the decision on this question is in future. Regardless of what that decision may be, many Americans likely will know more about their government than they did before-which is all to the good.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-07-03
Presidential Succession

While no one knows what eventually may be done with President Truman's proposed changes in the Presidential suc- cesSion, the fact that he has proposed It is serving it's constructive purpose. It IS resulting in widespread discussions which cannot do other than broaden general knowledge of the workings of highly important detail of government-some- thing desirable in any democracy. under present laws, the next in line for the White House, after the Vice President, are cabinet members in this order: Sec retaries of State, Treasury and War, At hnrney General, Postmaster General, and ne Secretaries of the Navy and Interior The Departments of Agriculture, Con- merce and Labor had not been created at the time the law was enacted. MT. Tru- mans idea is that the order of succession, after the Vice President, should be, first, the Speaker of the House of Representa- tives; next, the president pro tempore Of the Senate, and then the cabinet mem- bers in the present order Actually, un- der such a plan, the succession probably never would go beyond the Speaker. The House almost certainly would lose no time in electing successor to any Speak CT who might be elevated to the Presiden- E.
 It is true that succession to the Pres idency never has gone beyond the Vice President But IA times during Amer lean history, the Secretary of State has been next in line for the White House seven times each due to the death of a President or Vice President. Thus it is q wise precaution to decide whether it is desirable for this condition to continue. .s. f.a nfM Truman's proposal is that such line of succession would tend to insure that the new head of government would represent the party in power. This, in theory, is desirable in government which operates under the principle of majority rule.
 On the other hand, American secretar- es of state, taken as a whole, have been men of such outstanding ability and dis iInction that there is little reason to sup fose that the nation would have suffered under their guidance. Among the 4o who

Independence Day as of 1945

Independence Day, 1945, is not what we used to call "safe and sane Fourth" Sanity and safety left the world in Sep tember 1889, and madness and danger have piled one upon the other in the in- tervening years Yet today the world can see ahead to the return of safe and sane life in which liberty and the pursuit of happiness can conceivably become again the unqueStioned right of millions rather than an ideal challenged by the forces of brutality
 Blood and toll have already won back the continent of Europe from vassalage and freed it's people from the violence of war after nearly six years of nightmare. Blood and toll are pushing back another mighty force whose grandiose schemes of slavery had enveloped huge territories on the other side of the world Today mil lions of many tongues and colors fight for the same cause that few thousands battled for in the war of American inde- pendence. They fight to re-affirm self evident truths stated with inspired clar- ity by the men of 1776-truths which other men read and believed and won through suffering in after years
 In the last six tragic years those truths have been contested more bitterly than at any time since they were uttered and because men once more have fought and died for them, they have taken on new meaning. Freedom and equality, life and liberty, again are rights to be defended, not taken for granted Independence Day is no longer an eXuberant holiday for Americans. Some of their sons will die today but they will die in the fight for freedom and independence. But be- cause they do, it may be that in another year we may join together thankfully in a "safe and sane Fourth.'
