THE EXPERT" INVENTORY

Bridgeport's investment of S2O, 900 in expert accounting has not produced any consid- erable improvement in the sim pie art of taking inventory.
 The most elaborate figures which occupy costly pages in the year book for 1918 are de- fective in two important par ticulars-
 Under Estimated Value of City Property is set down neither the city's costly sewers, nor its costly streets improved, nor unimproved, macadamized, Warrenited, nor permanently paved
 The investment in these forms of property is probably greater than that in any single item, and greater than the amount put into schools and parks
 No private corporation, whether a railroad, or a water company, would think of mak- ing an inventory that did not include the value of its rights of way.
 The pipes of a city, below the streets, which carry away used fluids from the homes, factor ies and other buildings are as much property as the pipes un- der the ground which bring wa ter and gas into the homes.
 Fancy the Bridgeport Fly draulic Company making an in ventory of it's property which did not include the value of it's buried pipesl
 Imagine the Connecticut Co. setting down the value of its holdings, and failing to include the value of it's rights of way!
 Under the imperfect inven- tory appearing in the city year book the value of city property is estimated at S4.94O,OOO. This estimate is $3,o0O, ,000 too small, at the very least. The city's sewers are worth more than a $i.OOO,O0O The city's streets ane worth more than $2,OOo ,OOO

Thousands of citizens marched to the church, and. crowded in and about 1t, shouted, Long live the re- publicg Reason foreverl"
 Impassioned speeches in defense of the new religion of reason and liberty were made by frenzied orators. some of whom had donned the surplices of the priests Hymns and halIe1ujiahs in praise of the revolution were sung The remonies of Christianity were burlesqued and ridiculed. The gold and silver statues of the saints were hurled from their places, while. one of the orators shouted:
 70, blessed saints, symbols of fana- ticisrn, you are about to become pat riots! You are at last to leave your places and serve the country by going to the mint to be melted, and thus give us in this world that felicity which you falsely promised in an other.'

Invisible Government By Organized Dollars Scored
 By Federation Of Labor
Mu1hall Charges Against National As= sociation Of Manufacturers Loom Up Big In The Discussion At The Opening Session Of Federation Of Labor Today

Seattle, Nov. 10-"Invisible Govern ment by organized dollars was SCOT ed in the report of the Executive Coan- ciI of the American Federation of La bor to the thirty-third annual con vention which began here today. The recent Congressional lobby investiga- ton and the charges of M. M. MulhaI against the National Association of Manufacturers formed the basis of the attack.
 The report was signed by all officers Of the Federation who compose the Executive Council. It dealt exhaus- lively with all phases of labor condi- tfons in the United States and the insular possessions but made only an incidental reference to the new Feder- al Industrial Relations Commission and Board of Mediation and Concilia- tion. The report was not read but copy was furnished to each delegate.
 The reference to the National Asso- citation of Manufacturers was the long est in the report. A review of testi- mony before the Senate and House lobby investigations was given, going into detail regarding the activity of what is termed the invisible govern ment,'' as embodied in the National Association of Manufacturers.
 Concerning the National Association of Manufacturers, the report said:
 '-It has been shown to be the worst group of selfish, mercenary interests now fattening upon civilization. The officials of that organization have not denied their official signature to any communication offered in evidence. They have not denied that they paid their lobbyists large salaries and hon ored immense expense accounts. They have not denied that they attempted to break strikes and that their agents went to and fro in the halls of Con gress and frequented the rooms of it's members to prevent legislation in be-

 The report charged that only a lin- ited number of copies of the lobby hearings have been printed and ex- pressed the hope that the convention would call upon Congress to supply more that they may be distributed and the Knowledge of the alleged 'scon- spiracy of the manufacturers be wide 1y disseminated"
 Reference to the lobby investigation concluded: Now that the existence of the invisible government, the stronghold of organized dollars, has been established beyond doubt or question. now that its methods, pur- poses, and agents have been reveal ed to the public, those who have at heart the interests of humanity and the maintenance of a Democratic. form of government, are able to attack the problem with the wisdom of experi- ence and knowledge"

 In the Latin quarter of Paris free thinking students will celebrate today the festival of reason. It was just 12o years ago, Nov. 10. 1798, that the worship of the goddess of reason was instituted by the French revolution ists, who hoped thus to do away with Christianity and establish on the ruins of the old faith 8 creed that would have reason as it's deity.
 Nowadays the festival is lark, with a pretty model playing the role of the goddess, once essayed in all serious ness by Mime. Momoro, the youthful and lovely wife of a Jacobin printer.

Dr. Henry Van Dyke, clergyman. poet, author, lecturer, professor and angler, was born in Germantown, Pa, sixty-one years ago today. As pro- lessor of English literature at Prince ton, Dr. Van Dyke was a close friend of President Wilson, and when the 'tprexy'' of Old Nassau became chief executive of the republic, Dr. Van Dyke was offered the post of minister to Netherlands and Luxemburg. His literary work and hrs lectures before the University of Paris and other in stitutions long ago spread the Prince ton professors fame to Europe. The output of his scholarly pen covers wide range, from delightful little tales of French life to philo- sophica1 theories and theological dis courses. His poetry is easy and grace full, and deals principally with relig- fous themes. He was a friend and enthusiastic adrnirer of Tennyson, and some of his work reflects the influence of the great English poet. He Is fond of hunting and fishing, and, with gun and rod, has visited many parts of both the United States and Canada His trips to Quebec inspired many of taking up educational and literary

The first commencement of the Col 1ege of New Jersey, now Princeton University, was held in Newark 1855 years ago, Nov. g, 1743. A royal char ter for the college was granted in 1746, and in May of the following year the institution was opened in Eliza- beth, in the house of the Rev. Jona- than Dickinson, the first president. He died a few months later and was succeeded by the Rev. Aaron Burr, who removed the college to Newark. The first commencement in 174S was marked by a great deal of ceremony. although the graduating class num- bered only six. At this time a law governing the admission of students was passed, requiring that candidates be able to render Virgil and Tully's Orations into English; and to turn English into true and grammatical Latin: and to be so well acquainted with Greek as to render any part of the four Evangelists in that language into Latin or English; and to give the grammatical connection of the words. g A lottery was held to raise funds for the infant college, which, in 1752, was removed to Princeton. It was not un- til 1896 that the name was changed to Princeton University.
