McDonough for state senator was launched last night at a meeting of the Alfred E. Smith for President elub when Mayor Paonessa, address- ing the organization, referred to the attorney as “the next senator from 'New Britain.” The mayor's remark was enthu- slastically received ,but Mr. Donough made no comment. It is understood, however, that a com- mittee of the younger democrats has been sounding the sentiment of the party and has found that he is cer- tain of the nomination. President €. J. Curtin of the B8mith club presehted Attorney Me- Donough as the principal speaker of the mecting. Mr. McDonough charged the republican party with the greatest misuse of public funds tiat has ever happened in the his- tory of the country and quoted Claude Bowers, keynote speaker, in his characterization of the party as one of “privilege, pillage and plun- der.” He typitied Aifred . Smith as the first real candidate of the pec ple ever presented for the pres dency by cither party and termed | him “not only a winner but also a real president and one who will win mot by a close vote but by an over- whelming plurality.” The elections of 1920 and 1924 eannot be taken as a criterion, Mr, McDonough argued, because pf the fact that but 50 per cent of the elec- tors went to the péils in those years whereas both parties predict an enormous vote,this year. ‘The speaker traced the history of the democratic nominee from his birth, through his political career and finally to his nomination for an office by which ' he “will drive the rogues out of Washington.” He pre- dicted that the democratic party will be well financed this year, but assured thut the finances will not come from a bartering of the public resources. Hearkening bhack to the mayoral election of last April, Mr. McDonough forecast that the Amer- ican public would express its desire for honest government by electing 8mith, in the same manner as the voters expressed their desire for honest local government by electing Mayor Paonessa. Mayor DPaonessa, sharing the speakers’ platform with Mr. Me- Donough, told of his recent trip to Canada where he found “business brisk and contentment on all sides.” He scoffed at the claim of complete independence In the United States ‘with some of the present laws in ef- fect. His talk for the most part was an attack on the republican party nationally. 4 President Curtin was authorized {0 appoint a committee of 10 men and 10 women to get out new voters, a committee of scven to keep the elub appraised on financial condi- tions, and a committee to procure an® advertising banner for the cam- paign. The club voted to proceed with its election plans in cooperation with the democratic town commit- tee, but with its own financing pro- gram and system of accounts. It was announced that the demo- cratic primary will be held August 24 from 4 to 8 o'clock, and that pe- titions of candidacy must be in the hands of the town committee by 8 o'clock on the evening of August 22. WANTS FURTHER PROBE OF SCHOOL SITUATION F. C. Kelly Believes Situation Should Be Investigated More Thorough- 1y Before Addition Ys Bullt, Francis C. Kelly, finance commis- sioner who served as a member of the committee to survey Senior High school needs does not fecl the in- vestigation was thorcugh enough and favors a second study by a com- ittee of non-residents expert in their line. ,In a letter to Mayor Paonessa he suggests that an educator, an econo- mist and an accountant be brought here to make a study of the city and its nceds and that their report be considered before action is taken on the school matter. The survey committee’s report will be delivercd at the office of the mayor tomorrow. Former Mayor George A. Quigley, its chairman holds views similar to those express- ed by Commissioner Kelly and is not gatisfied with the inquiry. Several meetings were held by the group of 14 men and the school committee was heard. After several debates it Was finally agreed that the addition as planned was the best solution in vigw now, although it is not a satis- factory one. This sentiment on the part of the committee will be fully explained in the report.
