GREATER SERVICE BY REFUSAL

Ambassador Page has advised the state department that Great Britain VIII permit the snIpment of two car goes of dyestuffs from Rotterdam to this country and the hope is express ed by that departments officials that Germany will lift it's embargo so that these ships will be allowed to sail.
 The value of the cargoes is $5,O0O,- 900 and their receipt in this country will go a long way towards relieving the shortage of dyestuffs among man ufacturers, which was the reason for making the special appeals to the belligerent countries, but a still great CT service might have been rendered this country had Great Britain re- fused to pass them or if Germany now declines to- let them come.
 The United States is in this predic- ament over the lack of dyes, which is not only bothering industrial ac- tivities but has embarrassed the gov ernment in the printing of stamps and money, simply because it has failed to encourage capital in this country to engage in such business <t has become dependent upon foreign products while the material with which dyestuffs are made are pos sessed in quantities here but allowed to go to waste.
 There has been some effort made since the war broke out to manu- facture chemicals and dyes in this country and there is no reason why this government should not give ev- cry possible assistance in the way of legislation to the upbuilding of that industry and making it a per manent thing instead of being tenn porary and due to end with the war or as soon as German producers car again get their goods to this coun- try. Thus while permission to let these cargoes come through may be looked upon as 8 favor a greater service would have been rendered had the appeal been denied.

In effect the proposal is to supply the au- thority for a test of the continental army plan advocated by the president and former Secretary Garrison. A pro vision with the same end in view is now included in the house bill and the final judgment on the plan will be worked out in conference.
 Members of the house committee in closest touch with its efforts toward Liberalization Of the national guard said today that while it was proposed in the bill to go to the limit of consti- tutiOnal authority in this regard, they believed a constitutional amendment sweeping aside all state Jurisdiction would be necessary in the end
 Hope was expressed that agitation for such an amendment would come from the guardsmen themselves, once their new relations with the fedora. government were established.

LOOKING TO HUGHES.

From the persistency with which Governor Whitman of New York supports Charles B. Hughes for the republican presidential nomination it has been tntimated that he had some inside information relative to the at- htude of the justice of the supreme court of the United States, but that hes all been knocked in the head by he governors denial. He Is for MT. Hughes because he believes he is the man the country needs, and the ex- pressions which have come from all quarters indicate that there is a Strong demand for him as the head af the republican ticket.
 For the purpose of finding out if possible what MT. Hughes attitude Is upon some of the questions before Lhe country, Henry A. Wise Wood ad- dressed a communication to him but It met with the same reply as has been given so often that MT. Hughes Is not a candidate, that he is not in politics and that he is in no way ac- lively or tacitly seeking a nomination.

HELP FOR HUMANITY.

When Mrs. Laura w. Cole of Los Angeles bequeathed the sum of $40,- 900 to the borough of TorringtOn in this state to be used as a trust fund the proceeds of which are for the pUr- pose of detecting the existence of cases of tuberculosis, of preventing the spread of the disease and of as sisting in the care of those who have the disease and who are not able to bear the expense of treatment, she not only displayed a love for her former home but an interest in the driving out of the white plague which is most praiseworthy.
 In all sections of Connecticut there is an aroused interest in doing every thing possible to check the ravages of this dread disease. It has been undertaken by local organizations, by industrial bodies and by the state, it being recognized that through such cooperation as results from working together that the best results are go- ing to be obtained.
 There can be no question but what there will be an excellent opportunity for putting to work just such pro- ceeds as come from this fund. Tor rington is indeed fortunate in having such a daughter as Mrs Cole proved to have been. Not only has she made provision for those suffering from tuberculosis and who need such as- sistance but a most commendable provision is that a portion at least of the income must be used for pre- ventive work and through that some of the most satisfactory results are going to be obtained.
 Torrington is to be congratulated upon it's good fortune. It should make wise use of it's fund which is bound to stand forth as an example for oth- CTS who are interested in doing some thing for humanity.

MINE DANGERS.

Although they are bound to be a means of great protection against enemy ships, it is also certain that mines will cause as destructive work when they are struck by the vessels of the nation which placed them as when an enemy finds their location. They are no respecter of person or thing. They do their work as merci- lessly as the torpedo directed under the von Tirpitz method of submarine warfare.
 The sinking of the liner Ma1oja and the tanker Empress of Fort William at practically the same time off the port of Dover, resulting in a large loss of life, has brought forth the claim that they were victims of mines which had been strewn by German raiders. Much of that is supposition as there can be no absolute knowledge of any such thing, while it is known that the waters about Dover are thickly mined, that such mines frequently break away from their anchorages and that they are as destructive for friend as for foe. Thus it remains for Great Britain to prove that other than it's own mines were responsible for the loss
 These are not the first merchant vessels which have been destroyed by such agents, for there has been a long list of ships sunk and lives taken as the result of encountering such destructive forces and the num- Der includes quite as many neutral steamers as it does those of belliger- ent nations, although the most of these have been victims of the mines which have been set af1oat outside of territorial waters which unjustly menace the shipping of nations not involved in the war.

quired to show where the former gov ernor of New York stands relative to the presidential nomination. He has made 1t as plain as anyone can that he Is not turning his hand over to have delegates favorable to him sent to the Chicago convention or even after they get there to vote for him, but he has in none of the statements which he has made declared that he would decline the nomination should he actually be the choice. For that reason it is not surprising that so many look upon him as the man for the place and one who could by his personality rally all the forces of the republican party and many others besides to his support. There is a service he could render to his country which he could not turn down by the refusal of a nomination should 1t come his way.

consolation which might be adduced from saving the heavy equipment
 Conditions in the Western theatre of war are not sufficiently understood here to permit a treatment of the sub ject. Generally, it is accepted, how ever, that there, too, the Germans en- oy technical superiority in man and material, otherwise the French, Eng fish, and Belgian troops would have been more successful, it is argued. Un- like the Russians, Serbs and Italians, the French and English have quickly benefited by experience, which highly developed war industries'' made pos sible without much loss of time. As a rule, the application of a new de- vice or method has been quickly adopted there by the other side, so that the use of hand-bombS, bomb catapults, asphyXiating gases, and scores of other innovations has become general now.

ACCUSING INTEREST IN BIRDS

It is an interesting plan which has been devised by the National Asso- citation of Audubon Societies for the purpose of getting more people in terested in the robin and through such a course awaken an increased concern in migratory and song birds in general. Notices have been sent throughout the country to the effect that to each one, man, woman or child, who sends a report of the first robin seen this year to the associa- tion's headquarters in New York city there will be awarded prizes consist ing of a beautiful coIored picture of Robin Red Breast with which there will also be a life history of Cock Robin and some interesting data tell ing where he travels, what he eats and how he builds his nest.
 Reliance is of course placed by the association upon the truthfulness of the people who forward their reports both as to the time the first one was seen and the fact that it was a robin and not a blue jay, crow or sparrow. It will not be long before they will be making their appearance to re- main for many months and 1t can be appreciated that such a stimulation as this will give to the interest in the Sobins will be extended to other birds and with increased interest there will be a clorer friendship and efforts for their protection at all seasons of the year. The coming of the various mi gratory birds is always watched with pleasure by a great number who take care to see that the feathered song sters are given the proper welcome by erecting boxes or houses which they are seeking as homes. The Au- dubon association is taking a new way of getting more interested in the birds and it ought to prove de- cided success.

The miners are a good deal e1ated by the way that their representatives are being received by the operators in the negotiations. It is said to be unprece- dented for friendliness. Perhaps this will not be so agreeable to the con- sumers. It may mean that the opera tors have learned how easy it is to pass along the increased cost to the public and therefore are not moved to fight very hard. But the consumer also has learned that it is easier to pay than to worry or go without. - Waterbury American.
