who spoke' at & rally of the Hoover club last evening at club headquarters with about 75 men present, among them being many prominent in republican activities. Former Representative Fred O. Rackliffe presided. Mr. Rackliffe confined his remarks to words in- troducing the speaker. Before Sena- tor Hall began his address, a vote was taken on motion of Henry A. Smith, te forward resolutions of sympathy to Republican Chairman William H. Judd om the death of his mother. Senator Hall opened his talk by launching & verbal attack directly at Charles G. Morris, democratio can- didate for governor, He said Mr. Morris has made statements of | which no one has taken any notice, or in which no one takes any in- terest. Claiming that many statements being made by Mr. Morris are mis- statements, he said It was almost a waste of time to attempt to correct him. State Highway A, tion The speaker alleged that Mr. Morris claims the state highway de- partment had overdrawn its appro- priation nearly $3,000,000. He said the democratic candidate had pointed out that this was not good financing. “If it were true, it would not be good financing,” Hall com- mented. “Mr. Morris did not ex- plicitly say this, but he said it had been reported to him. If it were a fact it would not be good financing. He left it to his audience to belleve it was true. The statement has no foundation in fact. “Mr. Morris’ campaign statements i are 30 full of misstatements that no | .one pays any attention to them. “A woman democratic speaker here a short time ago said Connec- ticut has no state parks, such as she said Governor Smith has in New York, We havo 34 state parks in | Connecticut where our citizens often 80 for week-end camping trips and recreation. “There are four parks for each county in Connecticut with a total of 7.431 acres. “There is no person more danger- ous than the one who knows a lot that isn't so. “Mr. Morris made a statement about a lack of money appropriated .for welfare work and then criticlsed the state for spending so much money, all in the same breath. “He went back to the days of Governor 8imeon E. Baldwin and #aid that year the state appropria- tion for roads was $3,000,000. In | that year there were 13,000 automo- biles In the state.

He told a story of an officer of the hatter’s union in Danbury who claimed the hatters |were promised by Senator Under- wood that the Underwood tariff bill“ would contain a clause protecting Wilson was elected, he said, the hat- [ters learned that there would be no | protection for the hat industry.

Back in the 1840's “Salt River” was added to the political lexicon, and to thia.day “Salt River" is the place where defeated candidates go | after election day. In Louisiana, the archives of the state historical socicty tell, lived & Mr. Jackson, poor but eager to serve his neighbors in office—any office. Jackson was defeated in his first campaign. He moved, and neighbors who asked about him were inform- ed that he had *gone up Salt River.” Jackson ran other times, all un- successfully, and after each election he moved farther “up Salt River.” Newspapers started the custom. It went to California with Misourfans who sought gold in 1849, and the ioke became as famous as “old Joe Bowers, all the way from Pike.” I Usually Starts With a CoMd HARTFORD NEW BRITA!

P. Roche in police court today when Anthony Capaccio, aged 23, of 222 Grove street, Meriden, pleaded nolo contendere and was fined $100 with- out costs on recommendation of Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Woods. Capaccio was on Maln street last night under the influence of liquor, according to Officers O'Day and Todzia, who warned him not to at- tempt to drive his car, Mr. Woods told the court. A short time later, Capaccio came from a restaurant and while the officers wers putting in duty calls at the box at Main street rallroad crossing, he drove away. The Meriden police were no- tified and went to Capaccio’s home and took him out of bed and he was “booked” at the local police station shortly after 4 a. m. Attorney Harris of Meriden, who appeared for Capaccio, had the case continued until Saturday in $200 bonds, but after a conference with his client, had it reopened and dis- posed of at once. He sald Capaccio had been drinking but there was a question as to whether he had be- come sufficiently sober to permit him to drive with safety, between the time the officers warned him and the time he actually came out of the restaurant and took the wheel. There was no accident caus- ed by his condition, the attorney pointed out, and he also said he wished to take advantage of the op- portunity to commend the local po- lice for their fairness in handling the case. Capacclo, being a strang- er in the city, might not have ex- pected to recelve the courteous treatment that was given him, and it was to the credit of the local po- ney said. Prosecuting Attormey Woods teld the court the ‘Wwas unusual and he recommended that the fine be imposed without costs. In the ma- jority of cases of drunken driving, first offense, a fine of $100 and costs is imposed and a suspended fall |sentence added. Mr, Woods said he felt that consideration should be given to all the circumstances and Judge Roche agjeed that the case was not a typical one. Capaccio said after court that he had intended to profit by the warn. ing of the police but he was re. |fused admittance to the room of a companion in this city by the land- lady and his finances would not per- mit of his staying over night in a hotel, s0 he drove home. He had |no mishap on the way and was | greatly surprised to be taken out of bed in the early morning. Mind Blank Concerning Crash Steve Bugnackl, aged 24, of Main street, borrowed an automobile truck from John McLarney of 26 |Newfield avenue, to visit his mother last Baturday at her home on - the Cathols road to Meriden. Before leaving, however, he was visited by some friends. who had a bottle of liquor and a drinking bout took the place of the visit to his mother. Ahout 9:30 at night, Bugnacki |was driving the truck on Myrtlo |street, near Curtls street, and |crashed into a car driven by Michael {Yoroisk of 190 High street. Officer | Peter McEvoy learned of the col- lision and on investigating, found Bugnacki about 10 feet from the ac- cident, in a highly intoxicated con- dition. The officer learned that Bugnacki had left the scene of the accident, only to return a little la- ter. He denled that he had been driving and when asked about his operator's license he was unable to produce one, After Officer McEvoy, McLarney, Lieutenant Bamnforth and Yoroisk had testified, Bugnackl took the !stand and told his story. He could |not remember leaving his room and |taking the truck, not to mention the journey to. Myrtle and Curtis streets |and the ensuing collision. The {liquor floored him and left his mind i B 31, 1928, rowed the truck and intended to drive to his mother's home, he had no operator’s license, not having renewed it this year because he had not intended to do any driving. - Judge Roche imposed a fine of $100 and costs and a suspended jail sentence of 10 days on the charge of drunken driving, and a fine of $10 and costs on the charge of driv- ing without a license.
