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 <?lt» WSIBKIW] ntuaw-00-MM n»»t mw I WASHINGTON One thing to be learned from our headaches in Guatemala is that the seeds of Communism are seldom planted In a hurry. They take time to sprout and are almost always nour ished by a wave of Anti-American ism. In Guatemala, the Red seeds be gan sprouting in the days of Pre sident Jorge Übico’s harsh dit tatorship, and the tragedy is that his nephew and secretory, Col. Carlos Castillo’s Armas, is now one of the new would-be. dictators, currently rowing with the other colonels for supreme power. If he shoves the other colonels aside it’s a safe prediction there will be more trouble in Guatemala, and eventually Communism will boom erang back again. An entirely different, though dangerous, situation Is brewing in a country which long has been the best friend of the U.S.A.—Brazil. And now is the time for us to do something about it—not later, as In Guatemala. Brazil is not threatened by Com munism or revolt. But it’s been swept by a wave of anti-Ameri canism, thanks largely to one thing—coffee. And if it’s true that anti-Ameri canism usually precedes Commu nism, then now is the time to mend our fences in Brazil. Furthermore, it isn’t healthy to have a country which has gone down the line for us in crisis after crisis suddenly become bitterly sore. Here Is the situation: NO BROZILIAN PRICE SUPPORTS Brazilians have long known the U.S.A. as a country with high farm price supports; where the farmer is guaranteed a reasonable price despite a slump. Brazil up until a few months ago did not have such supports. Its coffee pri ces went up and down, with the coffee grower sometimes using his coffee to pave roads because it was such a glut on the market. Last winter there was a frost in the great coffee-growing state of Panama. Coffee bushes were kil led, some farmers went bankrupt, luckier farmers made a killing. Coffee growers in other countries were especially lucky—because the price of coffee zoomed. American housewives had to pay more, but Brazil, which suffered the frost, got all the blame. ÜB. newspaper editorials con firming Brazil naturally are read in Brazil. Speeches by congress men criticizing Brazil have been CUTIES "Might X suggwt fnUiAi(t your oty Mr ' j published widely there. And they all add up to just one thing—re sentment against the United Sta tes by a country which has been our best friend. Today there’s a development which may make things worse. Some US. coffee importers are boycotting Brazilian coffee for A frican coffee. Brazilian sales have dropped alarmingly. This will mean only one thing; Depression. And depression is the surest breed er of Communism. If the latter ev er gets started in the biggest coun try of Latin America, the UJ3.A will really be out of luck. HERE IS SOME COFFEE IN FORMATION YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT: For about 75 years a hot trade has raged between colonial Asia-Africa and Latin A merica—This dates back to 1876 when an Englishman smuggled the seeds of 17 rubber trees out of Bra zil to Asia. Thus began the rubber empire of the Malays and Indo nesia... .Somewhat the same thing happened with quinine, chocolate, coffee, (tobacco. All were developed in Latin America, except tobacco, but, taking advantage of slave labor in Asia-Africa, big European exploiters moved to develop those areas That slave labor has now revolted, which is one reason for Communist success in Asia, one reason why Indo-China is falling so rapidly The social revolution came earlier in Latin America Wages, though still not high, were much higher than the African - coolie slave labor of the European colonies. So Africa and Asia flour ished in the race to grow tropi cal products—except for coffee. In Latin America, and especially Bra zil, coffee remained king . Today we might as well kiss off South east Asia as any steady supplier of quinine, tin, rubber we fought to get back from the Japanese after Pearl Harbor Arab restlessness' in North Africa will soon put that area in the same uncertain boat. Also it’s a long way from these areas In case of war, and the a tomlc submarine is going to make wartime shipping almost Impos sible— So it will pay us not to forget our good neighbors in La tin America, even if frost some times increases their prices. They are close at hand and dependable —unleu we let depression and com munism get a foothold.

Crane Marvin fa like the persevering frog In the story told below. It Is his kind of struggle that gave us the electric light and moving pic ture machine and the airplane, etc. So we should glorify such, admirable traits In the stories re counted in grammar school read ers And we need to mix "horse sense” with our political philoso phy for youth. Case L-359: Marvin L., aged 20, is a 2 - miler on his college track team. "He’s a faithful plodder,’’ his coach informed me. "But that very perseverance paid off and enabled him to win his letter. “During our *ast track event, Marvin was far behind. It looked as if he wouldn’t place at all, for a couple of stars were way out in front. "Some of the other runners got discouraged at being too far out distanced by these two stars, so they dropped out. “But Marvin kept on. He didn’t place, but he finished the race. Then it was later shown that one of the star runners was Ineligible, so that moved everybody up a notch. Marvin thus placed and won his letter. “It certainly pleased me and pro ved that it doesn’t pay to quit, even if- you are far behind.” TWO FROGS Maybe you modern teen-agers aren’t acquainted with the old story that was popular a generation ago. It dealt with two frogs who hap pened to Jump into a farmer’s can of milk. But when they tried to get out, the slick metal sides gave them no footing. And they couldn’t spring clear up from the bottom of the can, for 10 gallons of milk were above them After several unsuccessful at tempts, one frog told the other that it was futile to try to get out, so he crouched on the bottom and ul timately died. On several occasions he was al most ready to give up, but he’d take a new breath and again start kicking. , Just as he was about exhausted he felt something solid against his hind feet. And when he looked back, he dis covered that his kicking had churn ed the cream layer Into a large pat of butter had formed.. It floated atop the milk like a raft on a lake, so the frog climbed aboard and then sprang over the side of the milk can into freedom. The moral of this lesson is the same as that which Marvin reveals MORALIZING READERS In previous generations, oui school reading books contained man y such dramatic stories to laud vir tue and stimulate youth to strug gle and work hard. Horatlon Alger also wrote a large number of short novels which en couraged poor boys to persevere. During the past generation, how ever, we have often ignored that early American philosophy and have allowed an alien viewpoint to con taminate our youth. Instead of teaching them to re ly on themselves, we have encour aged them to wait for Uncle Sam or some other welfare Santo Claus to nurse-maid them. “All any American should ever ask,” said Woodrow Wilson, “is a free field and no favors.” But that staunch motto has gone somewhat into the discard, and we have indirectly urgel youth to ex- 1 peet favors and to hope for some thing for nothing. We have even told youth that Uncle Sam would ultimately tree them from fears. Yet fears are the beat goads we have In life. Without fear, few kids would get to school on time or study for examinations. And few parents would punch a time clock i or buy insurance. It fa. high time we got back to “horse sense” and good Applied Psychology even as regards the read ing books in grammar school. We need to laud heroes who strug- ■ vied and worked and refused to give up in the face of apparently In superabie odds. When we (outfit Spain over Cube, try coming to our side.
