To adq to the confusion, Alder- man Baletlett has resigned from the common - council, explaining that pressure of business has forced him everal other guesses whiy he step- ped down. Thus far this weck the Observer has been informed with the greatest Michael W. Bannan Patrick T a h—Attorney ough. c—Patrick F. d—Angelo M. Paonessa. Mr. Bannan is chairman of the police commission and has a good working knowledge of politics. He is one of the proprietors of the O'Neil Tire and Battery Co. and is known as a hustler. But he is a busy man and keeps his nose fairly close to the | tire and battery grindstone. The fact that he has been a police commis- joner would work both ways—a man occupying that position has op- portunities to fake enemies and make friends. Sometimes the friends forget friends. Sometimes the friends said that Mr. Bannan would prefer to remain close to his business. Attorney McDonough would make a good campaigner. Hls voice would add something to the battle and, if he cared to accept the nomination, he could be counted on to provide fireworks. He seldom minces words, as he has shown while appearing as counsel in court and as a member of the board of compensation.

Mayor Is Made Victim of Every “Touch” in Town. The mayor of the City of New | Britain receives the princely salary | of $2.000 a year for filling the office, and he's a lucky man if his balance sheet doesn’t show disbursements in excess of that amount caused solely by the fact that he is the chief ex- ecutive of the city government. Forgetting, for the time, the fact that he must give of the busiest | hours of the day to hearing the story | of a wayward son or daughter, the plea for assistance in securing the | release of a boy from the service, | or, not infrequently, from jail, the | more or less irate property owner on an unaccepted street, or the pala- | ver of a political job seeker, the mayor must be constantly digging | into his pocket for cash. It scems to have grown into cus- tom that no program or new publi- cation can come into the field with- out a complimentary advertisement. A quarter page conveying the may- or's best wishes can usually be had for about $10, but the committee really expects a half-page which shears the mayor's bankroll to the extent of a crisp twenty. Then there are the tickets wich entitle their holders to participate in the awards of whatever appears on the face of the ticket. The man on the sireet can buy three for a quarter, but the mayor receives five books, exchange- able for five bucks. When the community chest is be- ing made up, or whenever any charitable institution feels the need for funds, or a civic undertaking is gotten under way, the mayor is | usually “privileged” to be the first ubscriber and is reminded that his donation is likely to be the guide for others. i he is as loquacious as the He turns aside political in- sphin the retort that terrogations with fishin' is good.

Councilman Judd, those close to him say, would like to be mayor.

Other “ring” candidates have taken their beat- ings like little men in contests with a and it is not likely that the day has arrived when a ‘ring” man can get a plurality of votes.

The medals will be given to all men who enlisted from this state and served with the colors igainst the Central powers. Other states have their medals, but there are many of those who enlisted in “rance, and joined the United States army when they were most needed, who will get no state medals.

ANDY HEARS FROM MARY ON AIRSHIPS Girl Tells Him Her Opinion of Flying (Contributed) Dear Andy: Last week you wrote me how the ozone overhead will soon be full of aircraft on account of everybody turning in their gas wagons to get one with wings and all the buggies that ain’t placed in museums to the grandchildren what once run us ragged will be used only for dasiing down to the hangar where the family Whirlwind is parked. Even though I think you're satur- ated all over with a heavy dew there is more truth than poetry in what you say. 1'm no authority on es but if flying flivvers is gonia be more numerous than those on the road. then olden time armour and jron helmets will be all the rage as they're just the thing to protec the innocents from falling wrench sparkplugs and oil cans. Some folks are already air mind- ed, judging from the way their busses take off on narrow roads in attempts to hurdle ditches and fences without waiting to grow wings, Air flivvering will be kinda tough on the lovers as there's no tunnels to pass through or side roads to park peacefully until the village constables break up the party. But maybe they can have more fud seated on the wings hoid- ing hands and picnics, only they'il hafta be careful where they tosses their empty tin cans so's they won't fill the dents they make on the top of some pedestrian's cranium with headaches. It'll also be touch on the dumb Dora who don't know any bettor than to heavy date some galoot who gets peeved easily, hands her a parachute instead of car fare, and tells her to get out and walk. When something misses besides the driv- er's judgment, if any, he'll be outa luck like the guy who couldn’t shirt into high because of spraining both ankles falling off the pack porch in dislodging a hornet's nest, as he can’t very well pull over to the curb. As far as he's concerned thére'll be only one-way traffic. And all of it down. He may drop in on old friends but what he’ll land on won't cause him to exclaim, “Pretty soft.” All he'll get outa the wild ride is a tombstone with part of that old favorite song inscribed, “Here lies what's left of Oscar Zoom, He Faw Down and Go Boom.” If lucky enough to live to tell the big boy on the bench, “I was banking a turn when the left wing got a per- manent wave in it and from then on I'm in a fog.” The judge will prob- ably interrupt with, “Well, snap outa it.” 17 fined ten and costs he can pat it down on the books s ‘“overhead expense." en air cops will be in a quandary picking out the lad loitering on the airways. Tt he pinches a lad for loafing along the lad will hand him the old applesauce about how he's breaking in a new motor. waiting for wifie to show up. or is merely a plumber wandering about trying to remem- ber where he's left his tools so's he can go back after them. But the bimbo who'il get most outa the air travel is the pedestrian, and how. Not only will he hafta hop. skip, reverse and otherwise throw him- self outa gear in dodging the few remaining chariots, but will also de- velop a bend in his back like the Kidney pills didn't do him any good. in stooping over so's the low fliers won't remove more than his derby.
