" DEMOCRATS DO NOT GET ENTHUSIASTIC " Paonessa for Lientenant Governor Boom Coolly Received ‘The reported boom for Mayor A. M. Paonessa for lieutenant governor on the democratic ticket was received with general gurprise about the city last night with’ democratic leaders and personal friends of the mayor_ assert ing that it was their first knowledge what thé mayer had mentioned for or was desirous of a place on the state ticket. Lawyer David L. Dunn, chalrman of the town committee, was one of the first to hear of the movement. He did not appear enthysiastic over the prospect of Mayor Paonessa hecoming a candidate, and openly stated that he ‘was not sure he would like to see the mayor enter thé race. Democratic State Central Committee- man A. Gorbach also received the news very cooly. While he declined to .nake a statement as opposed to such candidacy on the mayor's part, conversation with him indicated that he thought Paonessa's chances for - securing the nomination were very slim., He was positive in his asser- tion that Paonessa's entry into a con- vention fight would wipé out all chandes for Joseph M. Halloran of this city, receiving the first congres- sional district nomination for repre- sentative. Since Gorbach is lined up with Halloran followers, it is believed that the Paonessa beom would sus- tain a severe jolt as soon as it comes before the central committee. Mayor Paonessa would not say that he would be a candidate and there are many of his friends who are in- clined to the belief that he'is not ser- fously considering an entry into state politics. \ However, thbre are others who, knowing of Paonessa's avowed friend- ship for Mayor David FitzGerald of New Haven, a gubernatorial aspirant, can seé the matriculations of a politi- cal machine in his actions. Democratic Machinations. It is generally conceded among democrats high up in state politics that Thomas J. Spellacy and David FitzGerald have reached an agreement by which there will be no contest for | the nomination for governor, the lat- ter being left an open field while the former is promised support for United States senator. The name of Augus- tine Lonergan. is being prominently mentioned for senator, and a contest between him and 8pellacy is praotical- 1y assured. Although Spellacy is grant- ed much strength in cities, Lonergan is known to be in a position to draw heavily from® the small boroughs.’ 8hould FitzGerald feel that his ticket would be stronger if Loner- Zan . was the senatorial nominee, he could assict that candidate raterially By having Paonessa on his slate, at- tracting the so-called ‘foreign vote,” it is reasoned. Under these deductions, it is ex- pected the democratic convention will be left to choose between a ‘Fitz- Gerald-Paonessa-Lonergan” slate or a “FitzGerald-Spellacy-Halloran” slate. Even the most optimistic local Jeffer- sonians can see little- chance for both Paonessa .and Halloran to secure plades 84 the ticket, feeling that other | cities and towns would object to too manysnominations going to New Brit- | ain. Mr. Halloran this morning declined to comment on the “Paonessa boom.” He asserted that, as yet, Mayor Paon- €ssa has not stated that he would be a candidate and that mention of mayors as possible selections for splaces on the state ticket are by no means uncommon. . " Several weeks ago, Mayor Paonessa »was asked by the Herald if he had under consideration candidacy for the state senate. He replied that his duties towns and/ as mayor and his business would not allow him to‘become a candidate for a state offige; and furthermore that he didn't came to "go vroke'" in poll- ties, Whether or not the mayor has reconsidered Is a question that will probably not be decided untll he takes a definite step either in the di- rection of announcing himself a can- didate or refusing to have his nume brought to the convention, When the Halloran boom was started several weeks ago, Mayor Paonessa was one of those who spoke In Mr. Halloran's behalf. At that time he assured a gathering of democrats that he would bend ef- fort toward bringing about Halloran's nomination and election, Several leading democrats expressed them- selves today as of the belief that the mayor can be shown that his candi- dacy would eliminate Halloran and this fact, they assert, would end the so-called hoom, PLAN RECEPTION New Citiz®ns Will Be Guests of Local Llks Plans are on foot through the co- operation of Exalted Ruler John W.

Burritt Savings Bank Cor. Church and Main congre gilonal | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 29, 192z, ROTARIANS HEAR DR, FRED SHELDON Committee to Investigate Spring- lield Junior Achievement Judge B, F. Gaffney, Ernest Pelton and Isaac Black were appointed a committee of three, at the meeting of the New Britain Rotary club, this noon, to investigate what is being done in 8pringfield by the Rotary club of that city for the Junior Achieve- ment work and t6 see what could be done ‘in this city, The motion was made by Dr. Fred Bheldon, a member of the Chicago Rotary club and a former member of the Rotary clubs in London and Edin- burgh, who spoke at the gathering this noon. Dr. Sheldon had the highest of praise for the Junior Achievement clubs in the world and felt that some good should come to his talk before the local club, He was in hopes that the New Britain members would do their most to help the children, who, he said, "will be the men and women of tomorrow.'" It is also interesting to note that Dr. Sheldon wgs the man who thoyght of and presented the motto: ‘‘He profits most, who serves best,' to the Rotary clubs. Dr. Sheldon took some time to explain to the local members what he meant by service and profit, and the relation of one word to the other, Dr. Sheldon explained that he was in no way connected with any Junior Achievement council but he was greatly interested In the workings of such and had the highest of praise for the people who are willing to give their time for the advancement of this work. Council Exhibitions The “Handy-Toymakers” club frem hq New [\vitain I§ys' club gave an exhibition of the Junior Achieve- ment work in that council. Three boys lined up on the stage of the Elks' hall had models of their work with them and explained the making of the toys to the audience. The ‘‘See-Mor club” of girls re- peated ope of their regular meetings and two of the members in this club gave exhibitions of the work they had done in sewing. Meeting Next Week A motion was made to have sub- scriptions taken among the members for the Fresh Air Fund which is be- ing collected by the Herald. An “All Rotary” meting wil be held next wek at which time Ade Hoyt, father of Waite Hoyt, baseball star, will en- tertain, THEATER MUSICIANS GETINTO WRANGLE Union Movie Operator at Fox’s Called Out as Result There will be a meeting of the C%(:(‘ull\'e committee of the local Mu- sfCians’ Union tomorrow evening to discuss the matter of allowing Fox's theater to' employ one musician, an organist, during the summer months when only motion pictures and not vaudeville is to be run. There has been a great deal of dis- sesion between the officials of the local union and the manager of the theater as to the clause in the bylaws of the local union which calls for a five piece orchestra for a show house baving a seating capacity of 800 peole or over. Manager Harry Burke of the thea- ter decided that vaudeville shows dur- ing the summer months would not be a paying proposition, and he decided a few weeks ago to hold motion pic- ture shows instead of the vaudeville. When the change went into effect, the union stage hands were laid off un- til such a time as their services will be needed again, and the five piece orchestra was also laid off, and an organist engaged. The local union refused to allow any of théir members or any other union musician to play at the theater, calling into force the union clause which calls for a five piece orchestra. Immediately, Manager Burke sent to New York and engaged an organist to play at the theater, and the union officials turned around and complain- ed to the headquarters in New York. The union officials there, acting on the complaint, had the motion picture machine operator in thé local theater ordered to stop work on July 5, and they threatened to try to have the Fox circuit put on the “unfair list.” Matter Is Discussed. President John Dolgn met with Manager Burke of the theater and both of them discussed the matter. Mr. Burke explained that with motion pictures only as an attraction, the theater would not even pay expenses during the hot weather, if a five piece orchestra was employed. He stated that he would like to hire all union 1men at the local house, but could not afford to have the company lose money. Mr. Dolan stated that he was powerless to act because of the clause concerning the number of men hired, but called a meeting of the executive committee for tomorrow night to dis- cuss the matter, As it happens, the Fox theater in Springfield has adopted the policy which the local manager has put into effect and they have been allowed by the union there to use only' one man during the summer months. It is/ said that the same thing hds been done in Hartford. Mr. Dolan stated today that he is of the opinion that matter will be sat- isfactorily settied omorrqw night. He! said that he was unable to state for a certainty what the executive commit- tee would do, but he thougnt that they would allow the local theater to use one man. Manager Burke stated that he is in favor of using union help, but cannot see where the clause requiring a shew house to use a five picce orchestra is fair, especially when the management cannot stand the ex- pense. He stated also that he would have @ unjon man at the organ if the mat- er was decided tomorrow night fa- vorably, but if not, he would keep A non-union man and get another op- erator, PERSONALS Mr. and Mra.
