Yet no one has suggésted it is proper for the police to break into every closed car to see that no murder is being committed, The manner of enforcement of this law, as much as the law itself, is tc blame for much of the feeling against it.

Templeton, of Waterbury, is “profoundly gratified” that he has been mentioned as a candidate for re- publican nominee for governor and “most willingly” accepts the oppor- tunity presented, a formal state- n:ent made public in Waterbury yes- terday. Mr. Templeton in his state- ment reiterates his stand which he ex- plained in ap interview earlier in the afternoon that it was ‘'‘governor or nothing,” and that he would not per- mit the party leaders to put him up agaln for lieutenant-governor.
