Dunn Will Miss Norman Suttles Dunn is losing its 1953 Young, Man of the Year Norman J. Suttles. But the projects which he has super vised and seen grow during his term as manager and ex jcutive secretary of the local Chamber of Commerce will ell the story of his work for many years to come. Management of the Chamber of Commerce is a full hue job and requires the quick thinking of a versatile jerson. Suttles has met these qualifications in a remark | ible way. | A Chamber of Commerce that does not record prog ess is losing ground for there is no such state as status [uo in that field. Suttles has worked with the local Board *f Directors to not only keep the Chamber out of the sta us quo classification, but to double its membership as veil. | Norm, as his friends know him, has endeared him ;elf to those with whom he has worked. He is that type »f person. But while doing so, he has also been able to :eep the wheels of progress turning and the work of the ommittees going strong. |;les has used the committee type of Chamber of ce and with the assistance of an active Board of has carried out many important projects, as through the Tourist of the Week project, be the Tourist Bureau, that Dunn gained national ice.

Governor John Lodge of Connec ticut is up (or re-election in the Nutmeg State. The Democrats have nominated Abraham Ribicoff. who ran (or United States Senator in 1952, was defeated but produced 90,006 votes more than the rest of the Democratic ticket. ... ... It is not questioned but that John Lodge has been an effective gov ernor. Also, he is an Inept politi cian. As one of the functions of a man who chooses elective office as a career is to get himself re elected, John Lodge Is in trouble. He has not kept his party togeth er; in fact, he has purged It of most of its tried leaders, some of whom were Taft men and others were too oldguard to please him. Into this picture steps the vi vacious and forensic Vivien Kel lems who is running (or governor on the Independent Republican Party ticket. Estimates of what Miss Kellems can poll run from a low of 25,000 to a high of 100,000. Miss Kellems can draw votes only from Lodge, none from Ribicoff. Even the low figure, in this elec tion and for this state, could de feat the Republican. Prescott Bush was elected to the United States Senate in 1052 by only 29,000 vota. Abraham Ribicoff has the re putation of being an extraordinari ly competent person, handsome, a brilliant orator, with no personal liabilities. He had served in the House of Representatives. He and his wife and children were bom and elucatel in Connecticut. He Is a Jew by religion. John Lodge is also able, hand some and a good speaker, who can use Italian as well as English which- Is an advantage in Connec ticut. He is an Elsenhower Republi can. He had served a spell as a mo tion picture actor and in the Na vy. His wife is of Italian origin and a beautiful woman. All things considered, Lodge should have the advantage. Un fortunately the Republican Party in Connecticut, while strong in the counties, is split state-wide. I shall cite an example; The chair man of the Republican County Committee of Fairfield Cbunty, one of the most important in the state, is Bill Brennan. He is a powerful politician with a wide following. On the eve of the 1952 Convention, Lodge purged Bren nan as National Committeeman be cause he was for Taft. The purge was swift and un pleasant and left a permanent mark upon Brennan and his fol lowers. I happened to be present at the public testimonial dinner in honor of Brennan shortly af ter official, Including the Lieuten ant Governor, was called upon to make a few remarks. It was a de monstration of continuing power. While whenever I have met Re publican politicians in Connecticut they speak well of John Lodge per sonally, the; seem to go out of their way to praise the Democra tic candidate, Abraham Ribicoff. It is an unusual demonstration of lack of partisanship in a campaign year. Its signlficnce cannot be missed. Certain areas of Connecticut are bedrooms of New York. Here New Yorkers have established homes which, at first, it has been advan tageous to make the Connecticut home for the permanent voting address. The New York Influence has been of considerable Impor tance in Connecticut. 3ut population-wise this influence is not as important as is generally assumed because the state has a large number of good-sized cities, highly industrialized, peopled by those who are deeply concerned with local affairs. Connecticut is principally populated by Indus trial workers whose mills and fac tories are within the state and by farmers. Italians, Pedes, Lithuan ians, Syrians, and peoples of many other national origins have settled in this state. The principal problem that faces these people is how to keep in dustry from moving sway from Connecticut to the South. The re cent hatters’ strike in Norwalk shocked the entire state because it involved, and still does, the dan ger of important cities becoming ghost-towns. To the local people, this is more important than Gua temala and Indochina and the United Nations. Ribicoff, as a na tive. has already grasped this as Ms issue. » R to be presumed that and bred la Rm elate. OB DAILI UOOID, DUNK, K t ‘1 wonder how our baby sitter’s making out with little Harry...” i
