HAT TRADE lS

‘A word affection to the batting

The article follows: '
The article from the American
Hatter follows: _
The hat trade today is passing
through a phase of prosperity. The
country in general
and the hat trade in particular is
enjoying a popular appreciation of
style and quality which makes light
even the very real problem of high-
prieed raw material.
There are. no rocks in sight. but
as sure as tides and taxes there will
be times when buyers will be less
eager; credits will be less' easy.‘ and
the hats we make and\ buy will be
harder to market than they are now.
' Business Ebbs and Flows
Th . American Hatter is not a
gloom dispenser. yet it believes that
it is but sensible to consider busi-
ness as an institution that must sur-
vive over fat times and lean, rather
the day. If the hat trade has an in-

SOUTH NORWALK, CON N..SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1926.
Bridgeport
friend, R. 1!.
Mr. Chairman. and Ladies
Gentlemen of the Convention;
reasons, it seems to me. the tax
which faces us as delegates to this
nominating convention for
fourth Congressional district is one
of unusual importance. First: be-
cause nomination hero is. without'a
shadow.of doubt in my mind. and I
am sure every one of you shared that
same confidence. equivalent to elec-
tion. Technically. we are here to
name the Republican nominee for
thls important office. Actually. we
will here name the next represents-
iivo in Congress from Fairfield
County. Connecticut. For this rea-
son action should be especially well
considered.
“Fairfleld county is an industrial
district. Its prosperity and the hap-
piness and contentment of its people.
be they of whatever station. are ab-
solutely dependent upon a continu-
ation of those conditions and prin-
ciples of government under which
industry has always thrived. What-
ever the theory that onc may hold.
the only honest. the only scientific
way is to face the facts as we know
them. and if we will do this there
is no possible escape from the con-
viction that a continued application
of the principles of the Republican
Party is absolutely essential to- the
best interests not only of this dis-
trict. in which we are especially in-
terested today. but of the country at
lsrge--and I say this without fear
of contradiction—whether you have
in mind the industrial and manufac-
turing interests of the East or of
our great centeu of population. or
whether you have in mind for the
moment that great army of toilcrs.
without whom our fair land could
not exist—tho farmer. Their inter-
ests are more nearly in common than
we usually think. and I believe that
in our efforts to perpetuate or to
continue Republican rule in our na-
tional affairs. we are doing the best
Iservice we could do for all the peop-
e.
"Now. I need not remind you -‘—
who know it probably better titan l
do—that the moat successful—the
moat consistent-Abe most conscien-
tious leader that we have.ha'd in
this work for many a day is none
other than that sterling product of
New England thrift and acumen. the
present occupant of the White House
in Washington. It is not my inten-
tion to undertake even to enumerate
—much less enlarge upon the rea-
sons why President Coolidge has
proved the man of the hour. His
leadership is inspiring. his capacity
for personal_ work is phenomenal.
but we must recognize that the suc-
cessful leadership.“ this great na-
tion is not a. one-man job. His is a
colossal task. His is a grave re-
sponsibility. He deserves and needs
the undividedsupport of those who
are called to share the responsibilit-
ies of government. And this is the
second reason why our action here
today is of more thanyusual import.
We need ‘to maintain—in fact we
ought to increase-fillet majority in
Congress 'who are Republicans in
fact- as well as in name. We need
to maintain a safe working majority
of men who will loyally support the
administration. and who will be
brsxe enough and true enough to
stand for what‘they believe to be
night. and who will be wise enough
and experienced ,enough to recog-
nise the things that are right and
best from those that are the reverse.
“The Fourth Congressional Dis-
trict has a long and honorable rec-
ord of having supplied to the halls
of Congrseajust such men. The
veryocoasional exception in the last
decade oerero has only empha-
sised the 'feet. And now we are
faced with the opportunity of con-
tisiing that long and honorable rec-
o . '
N‘Whom shall we said? What
sort of a man will most accurately
represent the sentiments and wishes
of this constituency? I'll tell you.

dorst’gnds the problems of industry.

you that some of the most vexed
problems with which Congress has
had to deal in the post war days
have been those that have to do
with questions of financial nature.
We need, above all. a man whose

bread and butter side of her exist-

over these years has successfully

licity and scrutiny. and who today
stands out conspicuously as one of
the leaders in Congress and one. of
the stauncbest supporters of these
political principles to which we sub-
scribe.

PEACE AGAIN
MADE BETWEEN

NEW HAVEN. (AP)-The so-
cailed Ullman Republican faction.
the controlling factor in Republican
activities in this city. has reached an
agreement and has settled all dlf-
feronces with the state Republican
organization it was announced here
last night.
The New Haven organization has
been at odds with the state organ-
izatio led by J. Henry Roraback
chairman of the state control com-
mittee for several years.
The agreement was brougfi'ft about
through the activities of a commit-
tee of five prominent New Haven
Republicans who went to Hartford
and who were in conference with
Chairman Roraback for several
hours: This committee reported up-
on its return here that agreement
between the city and state organiza-
tions had been reached and that all
opposition would disappear.
The committee was composed of
Mayor J. B. Tower, Major D. A.
l', Blakeslee. Republican Town Chair-
man. Joseph F. Morrissey. Major
L. .M. Ullman and Michael D. Mc-
Govern, director of public works.
Several attempts to end the dif-
ferences between the state and lo-
cal organizations have been made in
the past. but all have falld.
The Republican organization here
goes back to the state body. it was
said by members of the committee
and is expected to receive every re-
cognition from the state organization
to which a city of this size and im-
portance is entitled. Representatives
and senators in the next legislature
are expected to receive important
assignments on the committees.

Originating in the upper Rocky
