A son was born this morning to Mr. on Cash and humor Neither Does Committee Explain Absence of Much Heralded Orator — Spel- lacy for Amending Vol- stead Act — Blames the G. 0. P, The Hardware City Democratic club held its much advertised outing at McMahon's Grove in Kensington yes- terday afternoon, with an attendance quoted as ahout 250 persons, There were high and low democrats, the elite, the orators, the servers, the local leaders, and the usual cohorts of the rty who wouldn't miss anything Hm'; the party gave. But there were many faces missing which were expected 1o | be present at a democratic time, all of which gives rise to questions as % the unity of the local men. Be Lhat as it may, the silver tongued “'Dave” FitzGerald, mayor of the city of New faven, was there and gefrained from hitting at the heart of a poli'ical speech because it was the Sabbath. “Gus" Lonergan was in attendunce and thanked the New Britain people for inviting him, also stating that the ha: a warm spot in his heart for the Hardware City which has alwaya heen friendly to him. Mr. Lonergan made a hit with the gathering immediately upon his arrival for he refrained from speech until the *'bo; had been fed. The *feed”, by the way, was quite late in starting, but it had its zood quality and was much enjoyed by | thcse in attendance Thomas Spellacy, well known in democratic circles throughout the state and country, got the “breaks” of the afternoon, for a question fired at Lenergan by Edward Hennessey, and answered capably by Lonergan, gave Srellacy his cue for a speech uud he made mighty fine use of {t, hitting at the very point in the subject of pro- hibition which everyone was awaiting with attentive ears. McCarthy Busy Man. Edward A. McCarthy, campalgn leader for Mayor Paonessa, was in attendance but he was amongst the workers and busied himself with see- ing that the gathering was fed Thomas J. S8mith, registrar of voters, was in charge of the political side of the gathering and did the honors !n] introducing the speakers. He apol- oglzed for the absence of Mayor Paonessa, who was at the gathering early in the afternoon, but had to leave to take part in reviewing the Lithuanian parade in the city in hon- or of the recognition of the Lithuanian republic by the United States. Mrs. Nathan Jaffe, wife of Dr. Nathan Jaffe favored with several violin selections, all of which were of the classical type | and demonstrated a marked ability combined with technique. Her most applauded number was “Ave Maria,” both for its musical interpretation and its appropriateness on the Sabbath. FitzGerald Speaks. The first speaker of the afternoon was Mayor FitzGerald of New Haven. He gained the attention of the aud- ience immediately by his show of wit He congratulated New Britain on having come into the party ranks at the last election and paid No sooner had the well toned perora- tion ceased, then Edward Hennessey was on his feet to demand an explana- tion of “what are we going to do when neither party represents the people? Here we have a prohibition law, but no prohibition."” Mr. Loner- gan replied vigorously to this ques- tion and rose to his forensic splendor as he told in no uncertain ternis, I voted twice on the Volstead act and twice I voted against {t, A third time I voted on it, T voted to have it re. ferred to the people, The answer to your question, my friend, is that it is up to the people to make their cholce. Get the other 27,000,000 to vote, and the country must abide by the will of the people.” Spellacy Talks Thus was t deck cleared for the introduction of Thomas J. Spellacy, former assistant United States attor- ney, A man of big stature and a per- suasive attitude that demanded at- tention. The Hartford man hit the nall as hard as any hammer blow could do, when he turned toward Ed- ward Hennessey and told him he would answer blis question for him. “You ask about the 18th amendment, my friend. Let me tell you that when that law was passed the congress of the United States had a republican majority. It was a republican con- gress that passed the bill and a demo- cratic president, Woodrow Wilson, did all in his power to stop it by veto. But they rode over him dnd by a two thirds majority passed it over his veto. It was a republican congress that made that law. TFhe democrats have had no opportunity to show what they would do in office. While speaking on the 18th amendment, I think it is the greatest disgrace in the country today, the way the law is be- ing broken. Every kitchen {s a brew- ery and many citizens are law-break- ers. It is bad for it is disrespect for law. If the people disrespect one law, they will disrespect all laws. T believe that an amendment ghould he passed to the Volstead act permitting the sale of light wines and beer. The rich can have thelr whiskey and anything that money can buy, but the poor man s deprived of {t. It {8 dang gerous for the country to have th® rich get all they want and the poor man get nothing."” Next Comes Halloran. Joseph M. Halloran of this city, was the final speaker of the after- noon. He admitted the honor of be- ing in the ring with such men as TitzGerald, Spellacy, Lonergan and the cthers and said it is a mignty hard thing to keep up in neh com- pany. He also sroke on the Volstead act and made a very broad statement in saying that he believed the issue in the coming campaign will be per- sonal liberty. He urged unity in the party ranks recalling that Hartford, Waterbury, New Haven and New Britain went democratic only by vir tue of the unity®hich was maintain- ed in their campaigns. He spoke on the labor question saying: ‘‘Labor was given its highest peak of life under the democrats, When the opposition came in the smokestacks no longer belched forth their volumes of smoke, the whistles blew at four o'clock and the days were cut down from six to four and from four to two. It is my belief that there should be a change in labor wage. Their should be a wage fair enough to per- mit of a living wage, a purchasing wage and a saving wage.' LD, MONDAY, AUGUST 7, 1922.

LITHUANIANS PAY TRIBUTETO AMERICT Manifestation of Thanks to Goy- The Lithuanians of this city yester- duy carried out their manifestation to the United States government for the act in recognizing Lithuania as a re- public. Starting with a street proces- slon, which embraced the principal highways of the city, a crowd esti- mated at several thousand men, wom- en and children participated. There was plenty of music by three bands, and the pretty floats, and natty uni- forms worn by many of the marchers, presented a handsome spectacle. Many Flags Displayed, . John Skritulsky was marshal of the day, assisted by a corps of aides After the paraders had completed their walk along a line that displayed the American and Lithuanian flags, the closing exercises were held at the Lithuanian hall on Park street. Carl A. Dixon, a former member of the British Royal Flying Corps, passed several times over the heads of the paraders in his aeroplane. N Mayor Well Receiveds Rev. Edward V.

He asked the men to boost Paonessa, to get in back of him and help him, rather than to criticize him. “Remember it is his first term,” Mayor FitzGerald sald, “and a man has all kinde of enemies when he first gets into office. But give him a chance and he will serve New Britain.” He sald that not only the people of this state, but also of the entire nation are looking for a change, “The country and the state need a change, he gaid, ‘and are look- ing forward to parties to choose their men,” He reminded the gathering that it is their duty to keep their eyes on the principles of the state and na- tion and maintain them. Cheers For Lonergan The ‘next speaker was Augustine Lonergan, former congressman, and his welcome in New Britaln was shown by the spontaneous applause with which he was greeted. He said he was grateful for being invited to the ouring. and was always grateful to New Britain for its loyal support of- fered in the past. “It is‘good to come here on a day like this and touch elbows with your fellow men,” he sald. "It is good to come here and meet your neighbor and talk over matters with him. Al- though it is the Sabbath, I belleve that it is very appropos to speak of issues which interest us and to have a friendly little discussion over them," the speaker sald. I{e reminded his listeners that it was the intention of the forefathers of the country when they made and framed the constitu- tion to give to the states certain rights and to retain certain rights for the national government. “The na- tional government has power from the states only and the states have certain | questions of their own to look out for.” | He emphasized the fact that the na- tional rights are superceding state rights and asked for a reversal of this condition. He deplored the condition existing in which only one-half of the electorate exercises its privileges of | franchise. “In 1920," he continued, “there were 54,000,000 voters in the United States, including the women, who had the right to vote.: And of that number, only one-half exercised their privilege. Parties were expected by our government founders. They wanted one gathering of men with one platform and certain ideas, and, then, an opposition party which would | hold opposite views and opposite principles.” Mr. Lonergan continued on the party question. “Now it is the duty| of parties to elect men and wnmsu; to be considered for choice as repre- sentatives of the people. Each man and woman has his and her own in- terests; the business man has his, the workingman his, and 8o on. But they are all brother and sister Americans and they must all act in considering representatives to conduct national affairs. It is our duty to consider these things and to pour over them." The speaker again thanked the mem. bers of the club for the invitation and chance to be present among them. Senator "Pat” Harrison wak evident- hall. Mayor A. M. Paonessa was in- prise &80 I have to be off for some ly miles away from New Britain at the time of the gathering nor did he make his appearanee at all during the afternoon, although some of the old liners evidently believed the sky was going to open up and drop down Harrison because the committee had said he would be there. It was just a case of “the gentleman falled to appear,” though no apology was of- fered. . Arthur O'Keefe was introduced to the men present as an example of what a local man could do if he had the ambition and desire. He started in as a lockmaker in Russell & Er- win's in this city and studied law and rose to his present position in New Haven. He was with Mayor Fitz- Gerald . The “feed" {tself consisted of clam broth, clam chowder, steamed clams, salad, corn on the cob and water- melon. Among those present were Mayor A. M. Paonessa, who left early to speak at the Lithuanian celebration; Arthur B. O'Keefe, lawyer of New Haven; James P. Kiniry, secretary to the mayor; Assessor Edward A. Mc- Carthy, president of the club; P. S, McMahon, John E. Farr, John L. Ross, Fire Commissioner John E. R Keevers, Compensation Commission- er James T. O'Connor, Nicola Laraia, Fireman Edward H.

Most soaps and prepared sham- poos contain too much alkall. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified cocoa- nut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than anything else you can. use for shampooing, as this can't possibly in- jure the hair. Simply put two or three teaspoon- fuls of Mulsified in a cup or glass with a little warm water, ' then moisten your hair with water and rub it in. It| will make an abundance of rich, creamy lgther, and cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust , dirt, dandruff and excess oll. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man- age. grYou can get Mulsified cocoanut ofl shampoo at any drug store. It {s very cheap, and a few ounces is en®igh to last everyone in the family for months. Be sure your druggist gives you Mulsified. troduced and he said that it was a great honor for Lithuania, to be rec- ognized as a republic by the United States. The speaker said that all Lithuanians should be pleased to be sons of such a noble fatherland. The remarks of the mayor were recelved with rounds of applause. Woods et al Speak. Prosecutor Joseph G. Woods was next called upon. He dwelt on the recognition of Lithuania as a great moment of that country. John Skritulsky, one of the leading Lithuanians in this city, gave an in- teresting talk, and John Mikalauskas also made brief remarks. BANQTJE_T FOR MAYOR Paonessa Is Feted at Niagara Falls, Y, by Italian Residents When He Visited There, S Mayor A. M.

Many prom- inent men of the city were in attend- ance at the banquet. Speaking of conditions as he found | them on the trip, Mayor Paonessa | said that while business is good, there is considerable anxiety being shown over the railroad and coal strikes. 8everal of the bigs railroads have | taken off a number of trains, and also | two or three of the big passenger | boats on the Great Lakes have been | discontinued to conserve coal.
