TREASURY STATEMENTS
MANIPULATED

For the second time the present ma
tional administration has changed the
form of its daily treasury statement
both changes resulting in showing of
larger net balances in the general fund
and making it difficult or practically
impossible to compare treasury condi-
tions in 1915 with conditions under Re-
publican administration. Thus, the
promised ''pitiless publicity" has
changed to studied secrecy. The latest
change was made on October 1. By
that change there was an apparent
overnight increase of $4,000, 600 in the
net balance. That no such increase
actually occurred is not claimed by the
Treasury Department, yet the daily
statements will hereafter show about
that much more than would have been
shown under previous methods of
making the daily statement.
1t has been the practice of many en-
terprising newspapers, Republican,
Democratic and Independent, to print
the daily treasury statement, with COM
parsons with previous years. Here
after, no comparisons can be made. 1t
will be interesting, therefore, for the
American citizen who feels an interest
in the business OF his government, to
take look at the last comparison that
can be made. On September 80, 1915,
the net balance in the general fund
was $40, 1898, 1874, as compared with a
balance of 1923, 416,613 on the CORES
ponding date in 1913, when Republican
revenue laws and appropriations were
still in effect. On that day the ad-
ministration had spent, since June 30,
$43, 1876, 740 more than its receipts. 1t
was running behind nearly $500, 900, 600
day. Yet, by its change in book-keep-
ing, the net balance jumped from $40,-
S9S, 1894 on September 80 to $128, ,063, 545
on the following day. To those who
have watched the steady downward
course of the treasury balance, this
mushroom growth in one day would be
amusing if it did not deal with the busi-
ness affairs of all the people.
The suggestion that we protect our
markets against European dumping"
at the close Of the war by having our
consuls refuse to sign manifests for
such goods is worthy of this Admins
tration's policy of exalt!ng individual,
official judgment at the cost Of enforce
ment of law. Under such a plan we
would have Supreme Court in every
consulate, with more than fifty-seven
different varieties of judgment. To
protect ourselves against dumping"
we need revised tariff law, uniformly
administered. Such law will be en-
acted by the Republican Congress to be
elected next year.

The remnant of the Progressive party
in Massachusetts,, whose who insist
upon maintaining the party organiza-
ton and upon running party ticket,
have demonstrated once more that
their real purpose is TO punish Repub-
licans if they can. fhey have endors-
ed the Democratic candidate for state
treasurer, though the Republican can
didate, and the present incumbent Of
the office, was a Roosevelt delegate at
Chicago in 1912. Doubtless Victor
Murdock and George w. Perkins ap-
prove of this. Happily, though, the
trick will not work. The vast bulk
of Progressives, in Massachusetts, and
elsewhere, are back in the Republican
party.

SCHOOL NOTES

The class in Animal Husbandry has
been learning the science of testing
milk. The milk from about thirty cows
owned by surrounding farmers was
sent in for testing.
Because of the increased enrolment
in the commercial department it has

At the last meeting of the Board of
Education it was voted to begin a
course in manual training. The work
will be started as soon as the necessary
arrangements can be made. An excel
lent room for the department is afford
ed by the unused space in the furnace
room in the new building, which has
a cement floor and is very well lighted.
II is hoped to have the department
organized by the first week of Novem-

Tuesday evening. This is the only
game to be played here this year and
there was considerable rivalry over the
outcome. Both sides did good playing
but the Juniors and Freshmen succeed
ed in scoring 13 points to 0 for the
Seniors and Sophs. Miles and V. Cross
starred for the latter and B. Cross and
Milford for the winners.

HEAD CUT OPEN WITH AN OAR
Frank Covinski Assaulted by Two Men on Rose Street.

Peter Subinski and Raffe1 Dobeke were arrested Tuesday night at about 1915 o'clock at their homes on Rose street by Policeman Charles NTcFadden and Supernumerary John Donovan af- ter a telephone complaint had been re- ceived at police headquarters by Capt. D. J. Twomey that the two men had laid open Frank Covinski's head with an oar.
 Covinskt had a cut that extended across the top of his head som the back to the forehead and requHed ten stitches in it when it was treated by Dr. Louis T. Cassidy.
 Covinsli, who also lives on Rose street, claims that he was out rowing when Subinski and Dobeke asked him to take them out. He compiled and in the course of the trip an oarlock was broken. When they landed near the foot of Rose street there was some talk about paying for the broken oar lock and five or ten cents was of fered
 As Covinski was walking away one of the two men hit him in the arm with a stone and an oar was pulled from under his arm by one of the two men who brought it down in two vicious blows on his head.

TWO WELLS SHOW
 No TYPHOID POSSIBILITIES
Report of Tests Has Been Received From State Laboratory-Two Other Samples Sent By pr. Lewis.

City Health officer, Dr. N. B. Lewis, received a report on Tuesday evening from the state laboratory upon the two samples of well water that he had sent for analysis
 Both were reported free from colon bcilli, which show evidence of possible typhoid contamination
 Both were reported it for drinking water as far as any disease germs were concerned although unsatisfac- tory in some respects. Both showed a higher percentage in bacteria than is considered desirable in water for drinking, and one had a very high percentage of chlorine which would indicatee Sewage contamination.
 One sample was from the Yerring- ton well on Fox Hill. MT. Yerring- toms son is sick with typhoid fever.
 The other samples, which was the one high in chlorine, was from the well in Thamesville near the paper mill pond. The water from this well is used by large number of people and pr. Lewis considered it advisable to have it tested although there are no cases of typhoid which it was sus- pected might have come from the use of this water.
 Dr. Lewis has now sent for test two other samples of well water which has been used in families where there are typhoid cases.
 One is from the BigeIow well on Broad street, the doctor said, this water having been used in the family of Clarence P. Roath, where MT. Roath his daughter and his son, all have typhoid cases. 1t is understood that the Roath family planes their sick ness upon raw oysters which were eaten 10 or 12 days before the disease developed. Dr. Lewis said Tuesday night that he understood that the three members of the family who ate oysters are sick while Mrs Roath who did not eat any has not been affected.
 The second sample of well water that Dr. Lewis has sent is from the well at the Polish church. The house. keeper for Rev. I. Maciej pastor of the church, has been taken sick with typhoid and has been sent tc relatives in Willimantic to be taken care of.

POWER TO ARATE
 MOSQUITO BREEDING PLACES
Conferred By Statute Upon storrs
 Station Director.

Attorney General George E. Hin man gave an opinion Tuesday to Pro- lessor E. H. Jenkins, director of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment station, on the interpretation of the statutes of the session of 1915 in reference to the directors power to make rules concerning the elimination of mosquitoes and mosquito breeding places; and if local authorities were required to keep in repair and free from obstruction the ditches, canals or drains made previous to the enact ment of the law.
 The opinion of the attorney-gen- eraI has a, special interest in view of the efforts made from time to time to destroy mosquitoes in meadows.
 According to the opinion the direc- tor has the power to drain and fill in mosquitO-prOducing areas when the city or town has funds or voluntary contributions have been raised to de- fray the expense.
 In his opinion the attorney general says:
 A statute should not receive such construction as to create new obli- gatiOnS or impose new duties in re-. spect to past transactions, unless such plainly appears to be the intention of the legislature. In the absence of such plain expression of design it should be construed as prospective only although it's words are broad enough in the ir literal extent to comprehend existing cases.
 Not only upon the generally recog- nized principle of construction above stated, but because, in my opinion, the act taken as a whole fairly con- templates by it's provisions future action only, the duty imposed by section 3 appears to me to apply only to places drained pursuant to the provisions of the act, and therefore. necessarily, after the passage there CFo
