REFUSED TO SURRENDER Bullets spattered against an

abode building In Nicaragua, where a small detachment of U. S. Marlfte and native guardsmen commanded by Captain Gilbert D. Hatfield, wore attempting tohol d oft a bandit horde which had stealthily Invad­ed the town of Ocotal In July, 1027.

Shortly after midnight an alert sentry's warning had given the de­fenders time to take shelter behind sun-dried walls of mud and grass, where tor hour after hour they withstood the machine gun and rifle Are of an enemy which out­numbered them about five to one.

There was a lull In the fighting when the bandit leader, Sandlno, sent a messenger with a flag of truce demanding the surrender of the marines,and promising. If they laid down their arms, they would be treated as prisoners of war. He reminded them that they were nearly out of water, and threatened to kill every man If they did not accede to his demands.

His terms were flatly refused and the action continued, lasting for more than fifteen hours. While both sides suffered casualties In killed and wounded. Fortunately two Ma­rine Corps aviators In scouting planes witnessed their comrades' plight. After emptying their ma­chine guns a t the attackers, they flew more t h a n 100 miles to their base to summon a bombing squad­ron which came to the aid of the beleaguered marines and dispersed the bandits.

Despite their burning thirst, and the prolonged battle which might have had a more tragic sequel had they been defeated, no thought of surrender had entered the minds of the marines or their leader.

The text of Captain Hatfield's re­ply to the bandit chleftan, al­though less terse, could be summar­ized In a few words: "Water, or no water, a marine never surrenders!"

Boat Builders Are Inspired At Boat Shov/

Returning from the Motor Boat Show inspired to build greater and finer boats, employees ot the John­son's Boat Yard, Short Beach, work­ed this week with new enthusiasm on the tasks before them.

In addition to building the larger type of boat at least 30 row boats will be constructed during the win­ter.

For 50 odd years Mr. Johnson has sold boats, building them during the dull months.

The hurricane blew oft half the work shop roof, and demolished two storage sheds a t the East Haven river but the hurricane also filled his yard with all types of boats for storage. Most of these were damag­ed considerably during the storm and will be reconditioned by Mr. Johnson and his men by the time their masters feel the urge ot the sea at the flrst approach ot the summer breezes.

Tho quarry, originally owned by Norcross Brothers, Stony Crook, and now by Richard Murphy of New York, is located on an old road a half-mllo beyond the liomo of Walter C. B. Goldsmith. Derricks havo been erected, tho surface is be­ing cleared of trees, underbrush and soli, tho granite ledgo opened up, some blasting has been done and blocks of granite are in the cutting shod.

Judge Louis Zacher, In town court Monday dismissed charges against Wallace Foote growing out of tho fatal fire which damaged the Lin­sley House on October 23 resulting In tlio death of three men, and in­juries to others.

Coroner James J, Corrlgan h a s ' concluded that while statutes had been violated, it would bo "harsij doctrine" under existing clroum-slnnccs to lay the blame at tho door of Wllllain R. Foote, now deceased. Mr, Corrlgan says:

Prom tho foregoing, I must con­clude that tho failure to comply with the statute waa not tho prox­imate cause ot th<i death ot de­ceased and since there is no evi­dence that tho death was caused by arson, I find that, no other porso;i or persons are criminally responsi­ble for the death of deceased.

•Wliat are the "ten best" fiction Centuryi. and nonflotlon books of 10387 It Is impossible -to announce a list of 'ten best books" ot any years, says

William Lyon Phelps, author and long-time professor of literature at

|Yale University. "But," he contin­ues, "it Is not difficult to make a brief catalogue of favorites." He pre­sents his selections In the January Issue ot the Rotatlaii Magazine, in which he conducts a regular book-review section.

'Blliy" Phelps, as he Is widely known, especially at Yale, has read 10,000 different books and still av­erages 260 a year though he has "retired." According to a biographer In a recent Issue ot life magazine, "he has .probably done more thon

[any living figure to Inculcate the American mind with a reverence for the written and §poken word."

Here's his 1938 list ot favorites: FICTION— Testament, by R. C.

Regal Roast Beef For Sunday Dinner There Is nothing that makes one

lodk a t the Ivorld through rose-col­ored glasses so effectively as does good, health, satisfying meals, so let's resolve 'now. to make our meals Just that. And let's make our meals so attractive and delicious that they are Tfeally important events of the day,

Inez S. Wilson, home 'economist, suggests t ha t rdast beef be the ch6lcfe 'ofr the Sunday dinner, be-cftiiSe fidt 'Only Is It healthful and sfitlStylngi but so delicious and full ot flfivdl- t ha t every member of the family will enjoy it.

The rtftSt tJefet pictured here is a ftfliea rib. A roast of the desired Sift 'is fiiit, arid -tlieh the bones r e -ftiOVbd .'bits the 'meat felled a t the nitrfket. tfhe rolled rib is roasted in eJcabtly thfe Sihie Why as any other BBef ro'aSt, except thfat it recjuires Slightly loflger ddoklng time, Us­ually 10 to 15 minutes longer per pbilhd.'dUe tb tlie fhot that the bone has beeh I'eftidvea and, therefbte, fwe Tieat'peiieti.atlon Is a little slow­er.

ftbaSt beef, in order to be a t Its best, shdUld be eboked at a loW tem­perature. Here is the way;

Place the beet roll on a rack in an open *6hkllHfe' 'pah. fefetsoh It with 6silt 'arid ;tiBt)"per. Make an 'Incision ana IHsiii't a 'roast hieat thefhidrh-

Beef 'tbasts 'are sfefvSd fare, ine dlum, or well-done, as you .prefer. If you use a meat thermometer, you always bah Be dure the roast will be aoHe to ' the i<lfeHt'ileBree, When the ftieat theMdmeter registers l4o P., t he Mast will be rare; ttnd a t •no *., the rbas fWlUbe niedlulh; Slid at'iJ/o •F.,'the'f6ast wiiibfe •well done. a tklHg a iheat thermbrhefer, {Kdtiihe-WfelgHt irelatiohsHlp is the

best guide tor telling when the roast Is done. I t must be remembered tha t this Is only an approximation, how­ever. A rolled rib roa.it cooked to the rare stage will require about 28 to 30 minutes per pound In an oven at a temperature of 300 P.; for rtie.' dlufn It -Will -reqlilrh about 82 to 35 minutes Jier potind; and fot well-done it will require about 38 to 40 nllhtes per pond.

The flellblous roast Is sereved with btoWned potatoes and bt-dwn gravy tor the main part of 'the din­ner. A cooked vegetable and a crisp sftlad may complete the main bourse, and practically any kind of Vege­table er ^aiad hiay be chosen 'w'lth roast beef, betause this meat has a flavbr Whidh blends With thehi all

The towns viherc diseased elms were found and the number of trees lost includes Btahtord with 3 and TJotth Branford with 3,

Mr. Plliey is in bharge Of State work on the diseases. Despite the fact tha t 1938 cases more than dou­ble the total number for the past five "years, he paints out several en couraging aspects in the Connecti­cut situation.

But tho Truant OITIcor is now no more, acoording to Mrs. Ruth Cor­yell, of a New Jersey School sys­tem. Now, In place of that bogey­man—or bogoywoman, as the ease might have boon—there Is an " a t -(endaiieo odicor" wi th neither scowls nor righteousness; not in­terested in oatohing young recal­citrants a t their wicked dedcien-eies and returning them by tho scrufis of thoir unwill ing noelts to the schoolroom, bu t rather in (Inding o\il cause!) for tlio roam-ings, and working out a ooopora-tive remedial program.

Mrs. Coryell 's further idea would ho that these are not causes for legislation but for pa-tlentsinvdstlgatlfln and the oxer-eiso of oxpprieneo and wisdom.

HIGH TAX PRESSURE (l''rom the l'liila(l.ol|iliiu Ledger)

As Chairman rif tlu' SniiiUe Flmiiice Comniiltne, Sonalor Pat Har­rison speaks with authori ty on the subject of taxation. Uis address to tho Economic Club of Detroit seemed to reveal an increasing appre­hension in OHICIUI Washington that the tax load had growii too great for tho country to carry.

Senator Harrison admitted that " t h e country is suftcring from high blood pressure ." More accurately, the disease is high tax pres­sure. And ho also admitted tliat the Oovernment had been compelled to tap every possible source of i-evcnuo and could go little fur ther in balancing the budget by means of increased taxation.

The al ternat ive is a drast ic reduction in expenditures. Senator Harrison warns that those r educ t ionsmus t largely be made in relief j " ^ , , " ' . ' ; ' ' ' , • ' , " ' " »"""= "im wors

The Senator from Mississippi (inds t ha t excessive taxation has reached the danger point of diminishing returns. The well is going d r y from which the pump was primed. The remedy, he says, is " p r o p ­er diet and r e s t " for productive American industry.

WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS

By JAMES PRESTON

Washington's slde-Une observers are hoping tha t they have detected a note of forthcoming government overtures toward business in anT swer to the cooperative plan recent­ly advanced by business leaders a t the December session of the Con­gress of American Industry.

Tlie new tune Is being played now only behind the closed Inner-chnm.-ber doors of Washington. If all the Inner-ohambor participants can agree on the new Idea, the result may bo simply this;

Government will give at least part of the business recovery form­ula a try. Namely, it will cooperate with business In a planned program to get Industrial wheels turning again and thus help take men off relief rolls and put' them on pay rolls. 1

The Idea Is being studied careful­ly In the Department of Commerco. If It Is finally approved, tha t agcn^ oy probttbly,wlll act as government's representotivo In the jolnti program.

jif any opposition arises to tho plan I It will have to come f i-om some source other than businessmen or

iConiircss, for business has for many months advocated a cooperative pro­gram for recovery and the new Con­gress seems to be thinking along the same linos.

IT OAF HAPPEN THERE A dispaleh from one of the foreign dictator countries discloses

tha t olTloial govornmcnt ccn.sors havo been assigned to the editorial rooms of all iiowspa))ers. Hvery iiowspaper, the dispatch says, must honoeforth operate under the watchful eye of a censor oflioially desig­na ted 08 "confidonoe man for surveillance of the p re s s . " His job, of course, wil l bo to suppress news nnfavorable to the dictator and his rogimo.

Readers of this, and every other American newspaper, should bo glnd to know tha t no such censor sits behind the editor 's desk here, W e suspect that our uowspapors would not ho half so interesting or enliglitening to read if such a condition did exist.

12 YEARS OF INJUSTICE

There was a story about as fol­lows: An Industrialist -confronted vlth a strike of his employes was •ead to occede to their demands so .hat his business could continue to function. Said the employer to his strikers, "You may organize a un­ion and I will recognize it. I will ?lve the wage Increase you ask for. M\ employes will have annual va­cations with pay. I grant sickness and old ago benellts. I promise not, to purchase raw materials from the dictatorship countries but how in hell can I free Tom Mooney?"

Tom Mooney Is free. Much more Important than his personal free dom Is the victory of organized la bor over the forces of reaction. I am one of many who believed In Mooncy's Innocence. I believe that If Mooney had not been a labor or­ganizer he would never have been sent to Jail 22 years ago or even accused of the San Francisco "Pre parednesa Day" bombing In 1910 which killed ten people.

It Is a favorable sidelight on our Democracy tha t Mooney Is free to work for the cause of a unified la-bor movement thus removing the cause of much labor strife and that Al Capone Is still behind the bars.

In Germany or Italy or Japan Just tho opposite would be true. The Al Capones would be free to practice their racketeering and tho corrup­tion of politics while those who seriously tried to advance the cause of labor would And themselves In concentration camps.

Indeed, Democracy Is a swell sys­tem to live under. May Tom Moon­cy's freedom spur both the CIO and A F of L to join hands and work te­

as consumers are

learning to do by cooperating with each other.

We can't escape the fact tha t tho little man has to prosper before we can have general prosperity. Tom Mooney, whose life Is dedicated to the advancement of labor has pled­ged himself to help the little man. If he Is successful In healing the breach between the two factions of organized labor he will have gone a long way toward his goal. Yes, af­ter 22 long years of unjust Im­prisonment, Tom Mooney Is free at last.

iK'iffil'Nb:' i* • •~-^"^- • : • ' • ' - • • • H. R. No. 1 Is nothing but the first

bill reintroduced on the first day of the current session of Congress. To consumers, however, H. R. No. 1 is the bin to tax the chain stores out of existence. As readers of this column know, Representative Wright Pat-man of Texas Is the author of this obnoxious piece of legislation, which If enacted, will raise the cost of living of every man, woman and child In the United States,'

Mr. Patman would eliminate the entire system of chain store dlstrl butlon so that Independent mer chants would have the whole field to themselves. This whole antl chain store tax business Is nothing but a fight between two big mon eyed Interests over a method of dis trlbutlon with the usual results of such financial squabbles as forget ting entirely the effect It wtU have on your pocketbook and mine.

Why do you a^ consumers trade

ponents of the industrial re-employ ment idea seo certain defeat for their plans.

FRUIT PUNCH (IN THE EYE) News disiiatohes sa.v tho govcrnmont is now operating several

orange, lemon and graiiefniit groves in western states. The.v jiassed into government ownership via the HOLC foreclosure route, and former owners are being employed to care for them.

Whether the taxpayer likes grapefruit or not he's now obliged to pay a grapefruit bill. He'l l got the usual reward, of course—right bc-twcoii tho eyes.

a t the A & P or the First Natloanl or ot Woolworths or Kresge's 5 and 10? Why do you buy a t Llggctt's drug stores,or a t Schultc's or Uni­ted Cigar stores? Because you WANT lo trade with one or all of them. You feel tha t sometimes you can get niore for your money or you like the merchandise or a dozen other reasons. You do not HAVE to trade with the chain stores any more than you are compelled to buy everything from mail-order houses. In short, you are free consumers and with that freedom goes the choice of the type of store you wish to do business with

Mr. Patman proposes to tell each and everyone one of you, not In Branford alone, but every, person in every town and city In the coun­try, Just whore you can go to shop and Just where you cannot go. Na­turally tf most of tho competition of retail stores Is removed the way to monopoly Is paved —especially if this competition is removed and tho capitalistic system Is left Intcat Remember t ha t this anti-chain store legislation Is not eliminating the capitalistic system is left Intact creating one more monopoly which you as consumers will legally be for­ced to support a t the expense of your food dollar. To eliminate com­petition under a socialistic system or under a cooperative common-wealtli Is anotlier thing entirely.

We are concerned over the In­creased cost of living that can't help but result once competition (under capitalism) is removed. Mr. Patman's bill is NOT raise more revenue by having chains pay larger taxes but IS de­signed to make taxes so exliorbi-tant that the chains would have no other recourse but to close their doors. This is a clear case of using taxes to DESTROY. And to repeat, destroying a system of distribu­tion without thought of the effect on the public Interest.

If this legislation Is passed by Congress it will be relatively easy to pass additional legislation to put mall-order houses, cooperatives, canvassers, and route salesman out of business. Then, you as consumers, compelled by law to trade only with Independent merchants who have already formed their own organiza­tion known as the Independent Grocers Association will be paying tribute to(' one gigantic monopoly. 'The independent merchants are no longer Indepindent 'as 'or ' bid.-It • is the combination of Independent merchants with their own powerful organization tha t Is agitating for the Patman bill. So It can be seen that the independents arc not so independent after all. •

The issue Is not a simple case of a local merchant trying to make a living while the chain store next to him enjoys a large patronage. I t is far deeper than that. Thousands of local merchants belong to their own powerful association which gives le-gal advise, helps with large unl fied advertising campaigns ond ren­ders countless other services to the individual merchant which in ef­

fect makes them Into as strong oi* stronger than any present chain store system. This Is the organiza­tion led by Mr. Patman in his a t ­tack on the chains.

Let's write to our Congressman and tell him tha t we don ' t want our government to kill a whole system of distribution and hand it over to another system of distribution thus making one large retail monopoly which will charge us all the traf­fic will bear.

Several factors will, of course, play Important roles In the fat of the budding program. One Is tax­ation. Another Is Federal control of business activities. Observers say that If these two matters can be ad-Justed (taxes stablized to permit In­dustrial planning and Federal con­trol minimized to boost confidence) the program will be well on Its way toward success.

• ' " A tew wee'ks'agoT appeared before the Town Clerk to get a permit to do publicity work for a newly form­ed organization to be known as the Branford Klssery Club. After being put through the ropes by his assis­tant, she told me a story that was amazing.

Quote—"A few weeks ago as I was sitting in my home quietly reading Homer's Illaid,,I was disturbed by the sound of the ringing of the door bell. I went to the door and tliere stood the old Duck Hunter from Harbor Street holding a paper bag in his hand tightly gathered in a t the top like Smantha Allen's um­brella. I asked him what was in it and h e asked to come in and let mo see, so I let him bring it In. He said that he had Just come down from North Branford and had a little quail in the bag tha t had , flew against his windshield, and to use his own words, " knocked the stuff­ing out of itself." He happened to have a paper bag in his car, (he had tha t much left over from his lunch), so being very tender hear­ted, as he called himself, he had put this injured bird In the 5 lb.-sack.

I was interested at once and after seeing tha t the cat was sound asleep on a chair, I had him open the bag and the largest bull frog I have ever seen jumped out. When he hit the floor you would think that he wore clogs from the sound. This kind ot a racket woke Pussy and she sprang off the chair after the frog, but he was too quick for her and Jet her have one right in the kisser and knocked out all her teeth, top and bottom, loosened one eye, and set her r ight back on her tall, folding her up like ah accordion. Thfn he hopped up on the table and in ex­altation hollered "jug o rum—Jug o rum'". By this' Pussy had un­folded and was trying to get out of the house and so I opened the door, and quick as a flash that frog Jumped off the table 8 feet from the door, landed right back of the cat at the threshold, turned around and kicked her out and then scooted out himself."—End of quote.

I asked her if she aver saw the cat again and she said that the cat was getting along fairly well At the present time her temperature had gone down to 100 and after her false teeth were properly fitted she ex­pected her to be able to be about again. But what got her goat was that the frog keeps coming back ev cry little while and "Jug o rum-ming" around the house, just as i t he hadn ' t finished with that cat

yet. I forgot to say that Pussy had compound fractures in both front legs.

And by the way Dan Daly, Win Morgan, and Mrs. George Anderson all heard her tell me this and will vouch for the t ru th of her story,

Dan said tha t last summer when he went with Postmaster DrlscoU, Reg Baldwin, and Charles Freeman out to Moose Hill Inn, he saw frogs Texas Frogs, tha t weighed in the nelgBborhood of" 50 lbs." Tliey are kept In padded stalls and have sil­encers around their necks. They have to do this as they would dis­turb the neighbors otherwise. I have heard stories to the effect t ha t they are used to plow with in the spring, and so I asked Dan if this was true, and if so, how it was done.

Dan said tha t he was Introduced to the trainer of these frogs, a big colored gentleman named Rio Grand Rastus, and that R. G. R. brought out one big fellow named Sea Bis­cuit, harnessed him up In a frog harness, consisting of a collar, a rubber band about 10 feet long and 1 foot wide. The band is fastened to the collar and the free end to plow. Dan wanted to see him plow so R. G. R. stuck the plow nose in the ground and Sea Biscuit leaped for­ward 20 feet, dug his feet in the ground, winked, chawed his cud with a mighty chaw and that elastic band contrated the plowed a furrow 10 feet long and as pretty a bit of earth turning as you ever saw,

I looked a t Dan and I asked lilm if he was lying to me. He assured me every word was so and said that he had not finished yet, so I Just waited to hear more.

Dan said tha t after the plowing demonstration, as Rastus was lead­ing Sea Biscuit back to his padded stall Reg Baldwin, in a spirit of mis­chief touched the big frog with the lighted end of his cigar. Said Dan, "The frog slammed both feet into our crowd and when we came to we found that Charlie had been hit In the solar plexus. Postmaster Drls-coll had his knee cap dislocated and Reg had three ribs cracked and his watch smashed, while I never got a scratch. But you can bet we wont try any more funny business with those birds."

I went over to the Post Office and asked Joe Drlscoli if all this stuff was really, so, and he said i t was, every word, and showed me his bandaged knee. Freeman wasn't In the store as he was unable to draw his week's pay, he was on the sick list, so I couldn't check up on him. Reg isn't back on full time yet either.

Dan said t ha t no sooner was this noised around about the frog plow­ing .than Gurd Bradley and John Rogers were out to Moose Hill Inn trying to buy the whole frog out­fit. Bio Grand Rastus and all. This I knew to be true for only a short

fordltes were leading by three points only to have the lead go astray when the New Haveners switched from their effective five man de­fense to a man for man type and steal the ball from the locals to score two fast goals and a foul. At this point Petela, who was showing the effects of the fray was replaced by Willie Proto. With but forty Ave seconds to ,go Hiiiliouse still main­tained their man for man game and by so doing paved their downfall for Jimmy Barba busted up a New Haven attack and passed up the I t remained for Olson to pull the floor where the Branford array rained shots a t the hoop but all failed, save the shot that Palumbo took just inside the foul olrole to knot lUp the count 29-all with .but five precious seconds to play.

Referee Jimmy Coogan ruled the contest into an overtime sudden death affair with the team scoring tile first two points to win the bat­tle.

Derby Falls Before Local Onslaught In:Inaugurating Its 1039 season at

the local Armory ilast Friday night the Branford Jlornets tailed.to show impressive i o r m even though they downed Leo Ryan's Derby five in a bruising battle to the tune.of 31. to 25

The Branfordites got away to a fast start against the two-one, two defense of the valley towners with the accurate eye of Palumbo knock­ing off three baskets:before the first period ended. The second stanza saw Derby with Saldemarco tallying a like amount of points but failing to keep pace with the Olson-Petela combine of the home lads. Tho halftlme score was 10 to 10 in favor of the Knechtmen.

For some reason in the last half the Branfordltes steady offense fell apart, and from the middle of the tliird canto until the rest of the game the fray developed into a dog fight which saw neither team give any quarter a s the battle waxed hotter and hotter and good basket­ball drop lower and lower. However the finish of the contest gave the Branfordltes their thirtieth conse­cutive win, and by doing so, appeas­ed the followers of the Hornets' court destinies.

Strangely enough it was when the Derbyitos fell into the man for man defense that the localltes slipped, al­though the writer has an idea that the locals were luiaware of the change In the Ryanmen defense un­til near the s tar t ot the fourth frame. While the Branford men

Maine, New Hampshire and Nortli-eastern are all good teams. Rhode Island plays here on Saturday, Jan. 21st. Sliould Connecticut be suc­cessful In winning this week's tilts, it will, go .into its game with .Rhode Island wltli a good chance to win.

•Wiilte had,his team on .the newly reconditioned -floor in Hawley Ar­mory on Monday night .and .began immediately experimenting with his charges to find a consistently smooth combination. Last Saturday, .his„s,tar,tlng,fl,ve..was, composed. of Spadbla and Peterson, forwards;

OiBaiiard, center; and Bloom and 2 Kosikowsky, guards. At the .end ol

the game this line-up had changed ai'ound so that Vernis and Don­nelly were a t forwards. Peterson,.at center; and Yuslevlcz and Brooks were a t guard. Other men who are figuring prominently in V?liite's plans are Bill Crowley, a forward; Vic Lukawsky, a guard and Henry Koch, a center. Any combination of the above men could provide the starting lineup here tomorrow. Pos­itions are wide open at the present time and.scrimmage sessions will no doubt be the final determiner when Coach 'White selects his starting five.

Herb Peterson is leading the team in scoring and seems to be the only player who hascome up to his ex­pected form. Spadola, JSonnelly and Verinls, forwards; Koch and Bal­lard, centers; and "yuslevlcz and Bloom, gurads, have .still to reach their peak form especially in re­gard to basket-shooting.

Many ifans from Branford expect to witness both games tills week­end. The general admmlsslon on both nights Is 55c.

East Haven High Win One'Game And. Lose One

Displaying one of the best a t tacks of the season, last night the East Haven high cagcrs went right to work on the Derby quintet by outplaying, and outsmarting them to the tune of 37 to 28 with Mes­sina and Lynch scoring 24 points between them.
