Pallottl that the office of budget director falls within the merit system, Slate Finance Commissioner O. Glenn Saxon Tuesday named Edward F. Hall of New Britain, his predecessor, to head the budget division for four months pending competitive examinations required as a result of the ruling. Mr. Hall held the finance commissionership from 1927 until July 1, when he was succrJd-ed by Dr.

Besides precluding the immediate appointment of Mr. Hall as permanent budget director, Attorney General Pa Haiti's opinion that the position Is in the classified service of state employment led Commissioner Saxon to announce a revision of policy in the operations of the budget division, a branch of the Department of Finance and Control.

Since the office was created by the 1937 Legislature, the budget directorship has been regarded as of a policy-making nature. "The budget director's functions in the future." Dr. Saxon said, "will be limited to fact-finding. Questions of policy will be determined bv the Legislature, the Governor and the Finance Combmissioner." The post became vacant Tuesday when tne resignation of Dr. Ben jamin P.

Dr. Vladko Machels, ths Croat leader, declared: "Air right Germany then let her come and make order. Someone must make order in Yugoslavia. If Belgrade can't.

Germany can." Danrig Trade Dispute. In Danzig, political tension mounted as Free City Nazis accused Poland of launching a trade war by refusing to permit further Imports of margarine and herring. Germans in Danzig declared Poland's latest move in "the herrin-r and margarine war" was a "general attack on Danzig's vital economic measure The Nazis, charging this and previous Polish trade restrictions would deprive Danzig of $3,000,000 of business annually, threatened to turn to the German market without rczard for the customs union with Warsaw.

Introduced by Catherine Barlow as one who has more for the local Negro than all his predecessors combined, and who recognizes manhood, integrity and ability regardless of the color of a man's skin," Mayor Spellacy was more parochially concerned with the plight of the Hartford Negro.
