Our cireutation statisdcs aro based upon thiz audit, This insures pro- tection against fraud i{n newspnper tribution figures to both matlonal and 1 cal advertisers, = PAON Out of the Democratic numerals 88 and 27, as significant, and the that it is easler to organize forces when there s a definite objective to be gained, than when there is the impression that there may be some objective off there gomewhere which it is to reach, if that objective materializes. All of which former Mayor Halloran's strength in his fight for the Democratic congressional nom- {nation, as compared to Mayor Pa- onessa's strength in his search after some state Democratic nomination, is more nearly represented by the num- ber 38—Mayor strength being represented by than by the noise raised by the Halloran support- ers which, incidentally, probably would not have been Mr. Halloran's method of exhibiting enthus Whatever the former Mayor's faults, he is not reputed to be noisy. Mr. Halloran is out for something definite—the Democratic nomination for Congress. Mayor Paonessa, pub- Hcly, is out for whatever is offered, it something is offered. In the former case there is a definite objective; in the latter case there is none. It may be said that last night there was a concrete thing desired by each, the control of the congressional delega- tion by Mr. Halloran and the con- trol of the state delegation by Mayor Paonessa. But influencing those small- er matters was the influence of that definite objective in one case and the lack of a definite objective -in the other. The vote of 38 to names of men for the post of secretary of the convention, the Halloran sup- porters defeating those with Mayor Paonessa by that vote. Here was something "definite, and the strength of the.two men in the convention, as influenced by the things they were af- ter, is shown by that vote. It by no means indicates the strength' of the two men with the electorate of the city and yet it is quite probable that if it were possible for Mr., Halloran, standing for the Democratic nomina- tion for congress, and Mayor Paones- sa, standing for a possible Democratic nomination for something or other, to go before the people as opponents, the result would not be far from that in- dicated by this vote of the convention, 88 to 27, for the Halloran man and Paonessa man as secretary of the con- vention. As The Herald has many stated Mayor Paonessa’'s success has come from the people, not from the sort of men who have votes in party conventions. His attitude last night, in objecting strenuously to the sonnel of the important committee ap- pointed by the chair, would have been less objectionable to ‘“the people” than it was to the delcgates there assembled. The echoes of last night's conven- tion having ceased to ring in the ears one may reach the conclusion that, as far as the convention indi- cated anything, it indicated that former Mayor Halloran is stronger among the Democrats of the city as a candidate for the congressional nom- ination, than is Mayor Paonessa as a receptive candidate for something on the state ticket.

Henry Roraback defeated his op- ponents, the Ullman-King-Healy com- bination. Some days ago The Herald assumed that Mr. Roraback had tained his hold on the party. Tt not care whether he done so or not excited over the re- did had it is the violently any leadership than of more democratic party in the state. But the | is the how matter under consideration Roraback leadership and small are the matters decision of that question might turn Mr. Roraback's victory, if he has won a victory, rests upon victories throughtout the state, made up of the results in various communities such as New Britain. In this city there upon was a resolution introduced suggesting that | & change in the chairmanship of the party would be advisable.

The Legion meets at convention this year a better and more organized body of men than f{t has heretofore. When it first was formed, politiclans were wont to fill the executive positions, they have been weeded out, and healthy exponents of Americanism placed in their stead. Frank 8. Butterworth, State Treas- urer of the American Legion the ob- ject of much abuse will be there, he will report that the distributor of the state fund for needy ex-servicemen will receive compensation for the time spent in distribution. It is rumored that Frank Butterworth is not to run for the treasurership again this year. His name is being mentioned for state commander, and there is a strong pressure being brought to bear on him ta be a candidate for National Com- mander. If he allows his name to be used in the latter capacity, there is one thing sure—that the state delega- tion to the National Convention at New Orleans will be instructed to give him the first ballot. Within the past few years Butter- worth has stepped into the limelight as a leader in Legion affairs. The Na- tional angle is strengthened by the fact that the former All-Americap football player and captain of a championship Yale team.

Now comes the necessity for pointing out the absurdity of the suggestion that the Attorney General who asked, and the judge who granted the temporary injunction be the objects of impeach- ment proceedings. Those who suggested such have made a mistake similar in char- acter to that made by the Attorney General. Neither figured on the re- actlon such steps would bring. The | people of the country generally be- | lieve steps should be taken to stop in- terference with men to work and to stop destruction of property by the strikers. The people would have been behind the Attorney General in any well-considered move steps who want to obtain a judicial order to make it safe for men to go to work when they | wanted to, to existing property intact. They have backed up any reasonable injunction | and keep would order. The trouble is that the Attor- ney Generaly asked and sought too much. The propriety of the terms of the order will be properly and fairly determined when argument on their merits comes before the court next Monday, The idea of impeaching a public officer or a judge of the court for seeking and issuing an order which, on presentation of the case is found to be erroneous is absurd.

Twenty-five fatal motor vehicle ac- cidents occurred in Connecticut during the month of August, according to announcement made yesterday at the motor vehicle department. This is e wctly the same number of fatalities were reported for the correspond- month of last year, but, in view the fact that there were nearly 20,000 more g on the highways this vear, it is regarded as showing progress in the safety movement throughout the state. Hartford, New Hawven, Bridgeport, | \leriden and Danielson each reported | two fatal accidents, involving motor vehicles during the past month. In 1ddition to these, New London, Der- by, Norwalk, Bristol, Stamford, Sims- bury, Berlin, Granby, Wallingford New Britain, Danbury, Willimantic Andover, Windsor Locks and Middle- town had one each Every effort is being made by the motor vehicle department and the or- ganizations cooperating with it in dif- ent sections of the state to keep ¢n the number of automobile acci- its during this month and the next, September and October holding the record as being the two worst months in the year for such accidents. Fall driving is then at its height and the drivers are subject to greater hazards by reason of weather conditions pecu- | liar to this season of the year, such as rain, fog, falling leaves, frost and other causes heyond the control of drivers ), a8 the days grow short- er, there is more driving at night against approaching headlights, until the latter part of October, when mo- tor traffic begins to recede.
