_/r< ||l|||||l|u MT ot “THE BARKER” AT CAPITOL Place well at the head of talkimg pictures yet shown in New Britain, “The Barker,” the first dialogne film made by First National Pic- tures. It delighted and thrilled a large audience at its first perform- ance at the Capitol theater last night where it will be shown today, Tuesday and Wednesday. “The Barker” has everything to appeal to the public in its talking version. Its emotional effect ‘s greatly heightened, not alone by s dialogue, but by the synchronization of music and of the street carnival cries and sounds, “The Barker” is a picture made for dialogue and Di- rector George Fitzmaurice deserves high praise for the manner in which he has managed the talking se- quences as well as for the splendid drama, the emotional acenes and the beauty of the photography. On Thursday *“Mother Machree” will be offered and beginning next Bunagay the first all talking outdoor picture “In Old Arizona” will be featured for four days.

BOY SCOUTS VISIT HARTFORD FRIDAY Go in Autos’and Report Extra Fine Time : ! Iurl!u | WHO IS HE? ! G. Evidently the §. P. T. D. was working overtime over the week-end on Saturday's silhou- ette of Eugene Albro of the Albro T. E P Motor Sales Co. A lot of answers were handed in but some of the statements are open to debate and can be tripped up statistically; others were all wrong due to the fedora doing a punk steer for those who thought they knew our popular young salesman. The editor was somewhat alarmed by the lack of guesses from the IJafnir Bearing company, which furnishes the shackles for the popular Stude- baker brand of cars. The boys up Fafnir way missed & golden oppor- tunity to tell us all about the shackles, but that's water over the dam now, and all the editor can do is to offer his condolences to the advertising department. In answer to queries of looking over the editor's shoulder at this writing—S. P. T. E. F. G. T. D. means Society Preventing the Editor from Getting the Dollar.

PAONESSA INSSTS DENOGRATIC BOARD FELL DOWN ON JOB (Continued from First Page) i tee's impression of my post-election | statement has reached me througn | the agency it disapproves, namely, the newspaper columns. Iam pleas- ed to see that, in the interim which clapsed between the preparation of the statement and its mailing, the committee has come to concur In my viewpoint that the tusiness of a political party is the business of the public and should be givea proper publicity. “It has not been the general pol- icy of the democratic town commit- tce, as at present constituted, to call members of the party in for conference and advice, in fact, many of its meetings including, 1 am told, the one at which this latest action | was decided upon, being executive | sessions at which none but commit- | tee members are allowed to have a voice. Ior this reason it would be diffcult, perhaps impossible, for me either to advise before the election. | or follow out the notion that my | statement should have been made | [to the town committee. If a mem- ber of the democratic party is of the | belicf that conditions exist within the party organization which should be remedied, it in futile to make known his beliefs to the group which militantly uphold the object- led to procedures. His ome recourse. as T see it, is to the registered | democratic electorate, which can be reached only through the public press, Wouldn't Take Dictation “With reference to appointments | made by me and workmen hired | under my administration, must T| remind that the voters of New Brit- ain last April elected me, not the democratic town committee, to of- fice, and T would be unworthy of [the trust were I to allow the com- | | mittee to dictate appointments.

Hampton residents is a democratic town committeeman for the ward in which I vote. He should have been in a position to caution against such a minstatement creeping into the letter. Tells of His Own Work “With reference to the part played by my family in the election of last Tuesday: I came back from Pennsylvania to attend a rally in the fifth ward, and did so without being asked. The committee has a nice balance in its treasury, but I was asked for a contribution, and gladly tendered a check. Mrs. Paonessa spent the whole day at work getting out the vote. I own but one car, and that car was placed at the disposal of the committee and used. together with the chauffeur whom 1 employ- ed and paid. How many members of the town committee gave time, money, a car, and employed a driv- er? “I appreciate the written approval of my suggestion that John L. Fagan be made chairman of the democra- tic town committee, and am glad to find we are in agreement as to the efficiency of his work and that of his fitth ward colleague, Frank Za- | patka. “The town committee attributes the unsatisfactory showing of the day to the fact that the democratic ! party suffered a crushing defeat last November. No doubt that happen- ing has rankled many members of the party. But, we had a ticket which, from top to bottom, was made up of popular, efficient men, capable of filling the offices they sought, and known to the clectors as honest, efficient men. With proper organization, many of them May 1 remind that the most recent mayoralty elec- tion in the state of Connecticut, that | of Danbury, one of the strongest re- | publican cities of the state resulted |in the reelection of a Mayor Anthony C. Sunderland ? they believe the democrats of Dan- bury forgot the election of last No- | vember? Statistical Argument *Taking the figures of the previous | off-year election, 1927, and those of last Tuesday, allow me to show what the democratic town commit- tee and the opposing town commit. | tee did in the way of getting out the | vote. In the first ward, the opposi- tion increased its vote by 242, the democrats decreased it by 70; in the second ward, the opposition in- creased 115, the democrats had nine less than two years ago; in the third ward, the opposition had 177 less votes, and the democrats 118 less; in the fourth ward, the democr: had 128 more votes, their opponents had 171 more; democrats brought in 136 more votes, their opponents 347 more: in the sixth ward, 138 more and the G. O. P. additional votes. The republican total increase was 971, their total loss was 177, the net gain 794. The democrats total increase was 402, a net gain 5. The combined vote by which the demo- crats lost the second, fourth and democrat, Do | ts | in the fifth ward, the ! the democrats had | had 96 fitth wards was less than the gain in vote made by their opponents. The third ward was made a virtual “no contest” ward by the endors candidates—un endorsement, tha least, questionable. It would than of cool analysis, to expect the democrats to carry the first, or the republicans to carry the sixth wards. Fund Lying ldle “I believe these figures clearly answer the question of the demo- cratic party's unsatisfactory showing last Tuesday. The sad part of the whole situation is the fact that | proper organization and a sufficient number of automobiles would have first time in many had funds day—and for the {years, the democrats lavailable.
