The capacity of the citi- zens of a democracy for self govern- ment is largely determined by the ! care and education afforded them dur- ing childhood and to this end the | state must provide oppartunity to all children for normal mental, moral and physical development, and must establish safeguards against their abuse, neglect and exploitation. The state should make special and ade- quate provision for the care and training of children. who, because of condition of mind, body or environ- ment, are not able to.profit by or en- joy the provisions made for more | fortunate children.” ‘SMITH IN REGEPTIVE MOOD FOR NOMINATION Former Democratic Reg- istrar May Get Backing For Congress. 1 score Thomas J. Smith, former demo- j cratic registrar of voters and more recently in the government service as director of census enumeration in this district, is said to be in a receptive mood for the democratic nomination for congressman from the first con- gressional district. It is hinted in inner circles of the democratic party that he will have practically solid backing not only from New Britain but also from several other cities nearby should he decide to enter the contest Democrats have been/ connecting Mr. Smith’s name with the demo- cratic candidacy for some time past. The possibility of his becoming a candidate was strengthened with the recent agitation for a local candidate to succeed Congressman Augustine Jones went around in 72, equalling the tified with democratic polities for a number of years and for several terms served as a member of the democratic town committee.

Althig Convention Hall, Hartford, Sept. 9— The delegates were slow in taking their seats in the armory. A great many of them had been | practically all night awaiting news of what was going on in conferences between State Chairman Roraback, Attorney General Healy, Speaker Walsh, Com- missioner Stoeckel and others in \the Allyn House. Hours dragged along, and the so-called psychological hour in republican convention night gath- erings at 2 a. m. went by and no so- lution of the problem of a guberna- torial candidate had been reached. Word Brought at 5 A. M. It was 5 a. m. when word ‘came that an understanding, had been reached and that Attorney General Healy's name swould be offered as a candidate in placme of those of Speaker Walsh and Commissioner Stoeckel. The delegates who were up at that time immediately scattered to arouse other delegates with the news. The managers for Lieut. Gov- ernor Wilson, Senator Templeton and Senator Hall at once began to muster their supporters, for the con- ference decision forecast a possible change in the ticket without any new names for secretary of state and comptroller being suggested besides those of Judge Pallotti and Senator H. B. Bissell respectively. Stoecke! Won't Withdraw. The conferces were besieged by in- quirers. The chief explanation given was that Commissioner Stoeckel, in view of the unyielding attitude of At- torney General Healy to withdraw Speaker Walsh’s name had absolutely refused to be a candidate. As opposed to Mr. Walsh many women who had Leen at the convention last night had given notice that prospective repub- lican voters did not want Mr. Walsh but Mr. Healy, himself, would bhe satisfactory. although he had not taken a pronourced stand on woman suffrage. The conferees retired for a couple of hovrs' rest. The delegate body. however was out in force by 7 al m. at Hotel Garde, the crowd ex- tending out upon the sidewalks. No such animated gathering of delegates had been seen since the famous Good- win-Lake convention in 1910. County delegatons met to select electors, but chiefly to discuss the turn of events. {LETT ON THE JOB. Wilson, Senators Templeton and liall were busy with- out delay. cnator Klett, a canddi- date for second place on one line-up, hurried from New Britain and looked s the Healy nien were the Water- bury senator second place. Amidst the hubbub the resolutions committee met, re-drafted resolutions agreed to some hours before, and went with delegates to the armory. McLean Applavded. Senator McLean was applawded as he took the gavel and again when he was made temporary chairman. The organization was quickly effected. The house rules were adopted und Judge Malone of Bristol read a resolution to recognize women’s interest in the party and to provide for their place in the party machinery by adapting the rules to conditions The report was accepted Col. 1. M. Ullr 1, his left a sling from a ht injury, took the platform and placed Senator Brande- gee's name before the convention for senator. The name was cheered on presentation and Chairman McLean declared him to be the unanimous choice.
