SALAMANCA, N. Y. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 28, 1938 NO. 52 Editorial OPPOSITION TO SPENDING GROWS Senator Adam s, Colorado Dem ocrat, is the latest addition to the ranks o f m em b ers o f the Congress Who are disposed to g o slow in the m a tter o f h u g e expendi tures for increased arm am ent. H e suggests there is less danger of a foreign invasion of the U n ited States than of econom ic collapse due to a long series o f b ig deficits and continued u n b a la n ced b u d g ets. Senator Clark of Missouri, Democrat, scoffs at “sil ly war hysteria.” Dr. G eorge M.

From the Rocky M ountains to the Atlantic Seaboard, the m ercury slid downward to as low as 34 below in Minnesota. In the South, freezing tem p eratures extended to the Gulf of Mexico and the borders of Florida. Great Plains states enjoyed a brief respite from yesterday’s intense cold, but another cold wave was reported on the way. A t least 18 deaths attributable to the cold or to traffic conditions ac companying the wave were reported. T h r e e D e a ths in U p s t a t e N. Y .

Three deaths and widespread proper ty damage were, laid to the gales and snowstorm th a t swept off the Great Lakes yesterday. New York City was windy but w ithout snow. The tem per ature was 19 above. A snowfall of from two to three inches added to the discomfort of shivering residents in central, west ern and northern New York, where a high wind whiped up drifts which im peded vehicular traffic. State.police advised motoi-ists “not to travel” in the northern area. R ise in M e rcury F o r e c a s t W eather observers predicted the m ercury would rise by tomorrow with prospects of more snow. Snow plows worked through the night to keep roads open in some sec tions of N o rthern New York, where light snow was piled high by winds, forcing motorists tem p o rarily to abandon their autos and seek shelter at farm houses.

WOMAN SCIENTIST FINDS FILM THAT MAKES GLASS INVISIBLE, ADDS TO LIGHT IT TRANSMITS Schenectady, Dec. 27 (iP)— Dis covery of a coating th a t makes glass invisible, so th a t it disappears from view like the w e a rer of Siegfried’s legendary cap, is announced by Dr. K a tharine B. Blodgett, .noted woman, scientist. O rdinary thicknesses become clear a air, and reveal how much human eyes have been missing in looking through even the finest glass. Purest glass transm its about 92 per cent of light, as compared with more than 99 with the new coating. A coated pane is visible only by its dimly-out lined edges. The glass never reflects light from any angle whatever, no m a tter how strong the glare. Clock, dial face and showcase and windows appear not to exist. Eyeglasses would not bother w earers with reflection in stray beams from side or behind. New feats in photography seem possible. Normally a cam era lens cuts out 8 per cent of light.. W ith some b e tter types o f cameras, using th ree or four lenses, this m eans a loss of 2 5 to 35 per cent o f the light reaching the plate. Coated lenses would give th a t much increase in light. An incredibly thin film on both surfaces of glass is the secret of this scientific miracle. The film is about four millionths of an inch, or one- quarter the wave-length of light, in thickness. Dr. Blodgett is of the General Electric Company's research labora tory. H e r work is an example of “pure” science, which seems not to have the remotest practical value, suddenly doing something revolution ary , The impractical thing was find ing th a t an oily film a single molecule thick can be spread on the surface of water. This discovery was made by 'Dr. Irving Langmuir, of General Electric winner of the Nobel Prize in chemis try. Miss Blodgett is his associate. They found th a t by dipping a piece o f glass through the floating film , the single-molecule layer would transfer to the solid surface. Each dip adds one layer. Glass is dipped Usually forty-four tim es to build the thick ness o f a quarter wave-length of light* New York, Dec. 28 (JP )— The gov ernm ent began a roundup o f the shadowy company of men suspected of extorting money from the late F. Donald Coster-Musica, th e indicted president of McKesson and Robbins, Inc., who had cried out a g ainst black mailers in a note w ritten before his suicide December 16.’ The first suspect, taken into cus tody late yesterday, was Walter H. Cragg, a disbarred lawyer convicted of grand larceny in 1914, who was charged specifically with using the mails to defraud and acting in con cert with others fo r th a t purpose. Two others were identified by U. S. D istrict A ttorney Gregory Noonan as M ary Brandino and her brother, Joseph. The Brandinos, Noonan ad ded, were charged with the same of fenses as was Cragg. They were said by Federal investigators to have been associated with Coster-Musica in a Brooklyn drug business in 1920. Other arrests were ordered. Inform ation a b o u t the two men and the woman was believed to have come from Benjamin Simon, another old- tim e acquaintance of Coster-Musica who was on the McKesson and Rob bins payroll. Between them Cragg and Miss Brandino, 37, were charged with bleeding $8,000 a year from the sly swindler who masqueraded as a re spectable business man. Noonan has said at least eight per sons preyed upon the singular swind ler by knowledge of his old life.

W achter, a resident of Salamanca and long a Democratic state comm*v teem an, defeated Basil J. Titus, whose term expires the end of this month. The vote, which came on the sec ond ballot after no candidate had won a m ajority on the first ballot, was as follows: W achter .................... 3816% Titus .......................................... 26401a i H a l e ............................................... 152 Following the first ballot, on which Mr. Titus received the largest vote but failed to win a m ajority, Michael T. McCarthy of Olean withdrew in favor of Mr. W achter. Thereupon Roy Hale, secretary of the county committee, announced that his supporters were free to vote as they pleased. In the subsequent roll call proxies which had been vot ed previously in favor of Mr. Hale were voted for Mr. W achter by the Dowd forces. The committee convened at the city hall shortly b efore 2 o’clock, with Chairman Shane presiding. About forty persons were present. Roll call was attended by presen tation of numerous proxies, some of which evoked questions as to the dates on which they were given, and challenges. Jay Titus, father of Commissioner Titus, appeared to be in command of the anti-Dowd forces, presenting a large num ber of proxies, notably from Olean. Judge Dowd also held proxies, chiefly from Salamanca and the rural districts. First Ballot, No Choice The f ir s t ballot resulted: Hale 658% W achter 1882% Titus 2520 M cCarthy 606. A total of 6617% votes were rep resented, and 3309 were required for a majority* Each committeeman casts a vote based on the party vote for Governor in his district. S e t b a c k f o r C o u n t y P o l i t i c a l C o m b i n e The outcome of the contest in the Democratic county committee was not only a victory for the Dowd- Shane forces in the Democratic p a r ty, but another setback fo r the bi partisan political machine which has largely dominated county affairs of r e c e n t years, but which has had sev eral severe jolts of late— notably tbe success of County Clerk Guy Fargo in winning renom ination against the machine candidate, and the election in November of H azard E. Robinson of Conewango as county welfare commissioner over Victor R. Lynde of Yorkshire, long one of the pillars of the bipartisan combination. Mr. Titus, the present Democratic election commissioner, owed his ap pointm ent three years ago to a shrewd m aneuver by Jam e s Devine of Humphrey, Democratic leader on the board of supervisors and long an intim ate political associate of Mr. Lynde. Mr. Titus last fall secured proxies of Democratic committeemen which were voted against the election of Mr. Shane as chairman of the county committee and in favor of an Olean candidate for the chairmanship who was regarded as particularly friendly to Mr. Lynde. The Olean Democrats aligned against Judge Dowd and Mr. Shane were credited with having supported Mr. Lynde a t the November election. Lynde carried Olean by 243 over Robinson, where as the city gave Dewey 1716 over Lehman. F a s t O n e P u l T itu s In Supporters of the Dowd-Shane fac tion have contended th a t the appoint m e n t of Mr. Titus three years ago was not legal, because the require m ents of the law had not been com plied with, but no form a l objection was ever made to his official status. W h at is described as the “fast one” pulled by M r. Devjne in seating Mr. Titus three years ago is thus out lined; The election law provides t h a t a t least five days before January 1 in odd num b ered years the chairm an o f the county eommifctee o f each m a jor p a r ty shall make and file w ith the board of supervisors “a certificate in substantially the following form ” certifying the nam e of a person “who recommended as a fit and proper person to be appointed a commission* e r o f elections.” Then follow* the form, reciting * % * etc., “certify th a t in the opinion o | a m ajority of such committee, pursw ant to a resolution duly adopted,* Mr. So-and-So is a fit and propel person and th a t his appointm ent ii recommended. Dowd supporters say th a t the Dem ocratic county committee did not ree« om m e n d 'M r Titus for appointment three years ago. A t the first session of the board of supervisors in 1936, on the Sth of January, Mr. Devine filed a certificate dated January $ and signed by the then Democratic county chairman, the late Thomas F, McMahon of Allegany, worded thus? “I, Thomas F. McMahon, chair man,” etc., “certify th a t in the opin ion of the m ajority of such commit* tee Basil J . . Titus . . . is a fit anq proper person” to be appointed, etc. and recommending his appointment This certificate, it is pointed out, omits the phrase prescribed in the election law “pursuant to resolution duly adopted.” As a m a tter of fact, Dowd adherents say, no resolution recommending Mr. Titus was p resent ed to or voted on by the Democratic county committee, and the chairman's certificate was really nothing more than an expression of his opinion that a m ajority favored Mr. Titus. They assert that Mr. McMahon made th s certificate under a misapprehension.

Shane forces \ for Alderman Olean fo r cha ties of Mr. Titu e Dowd- • *d to be I igers oi v 2 activi- n secur ing proxies for James Lyons of Olean had been so successful th a t his elec tion appeared imminent, and in a last-minute s h ift the Dowd forces put Mr. Shane forward as their candi date for chairman and he was elected over Lyons, by a close vote. Among those who sought proxies for Mr. Lyons, according to informa tion reaching the Press from several sources usually reliable, was Mr*. Lynde. A fter the county committee meet ing, Mr. Lyons was elected chairman of the Olean city Democratic commit tee, and it has been reported in Dem ocratic circles that the instructions given to Olean Democratic voters were to vote the straig h t Democratic ticket except Lehman and Robinson (Mr. Robinson ran as a n independent but also had the Democratic endorse m ent) . As tending to- confirm these reports, the election returns in Olear are cited, particularly those in the ninth ward (the E rie station w a rd), the home w ard of Mr. Lyons. I n this ward the Democratic enrollm ent for 193S was 698 but the vote for Leh m an was only 506, almost 200 short of the Democratic affiliation; and fha vote fo r Dewey was 267, although there were only 160 affiliated Repub licans. A rgum ent against Titus The argum e n t against continuing Mr. Titus as election commissioner was thus phrased by one of Hie sup porters of Mr. 'W achter; “The law provides f o r a bipartisan election commission— one Democrat and one Republican. W e w a n t a s the Democratic member a m a n who sup ports the Democratic ticket, not one who lines up in a campaign with the chairm an of the Republican organ isation.
