Eituer way, it is difficult to explain its presence in the editoral —unless, ag some seem inclined to think, the discourse was predicated upon this turn of political events. Mayor Paonessa is the individual who hus suggested discontinuing the {home service bureau as a move for |cconomy. In attacking his plan, the | paper declares it does so not because {he is a demoerat, but because it | wishes to stand back of the service- {men. Further argument of the abs |sence of politics is made by declar- ing that the Legion fought the pro. postal that there be a private dis- tributor of the state fund. This is supposed to indicate that the Legion has opposed republican moves as well as democratic projects, but it | means nothing from a standpoint of |party politics. The state fund fight was in a republican legislature, and it is difficult to see low anyone could take sides in a Connecticut legislative fight without being on the |side of one or the other temporary tactional groups.
