OTHER VIEW POINTS

Congressman Hill says he has his reasons for voting against the tabling of the McLemore resolution, and we shall have to take his word for it. He could hardly make the matter any better by trying to explain now. The resolution was defeated, and there are other things to do than to discuss personal motives in the vote.-New Haven Register.

One Is reminded that it Is not all honey and milk" in this country. by reports of the bread lines in New York city. These may be regarded as peren- nial institutions that come and go with winter, but they are also evidence of a lack of prosperity that is not easily understood in communities where la bor is at a premium and wages coE- stantly advancing. It will be remem- bered that the bread lines came back into prominence, the country over, about the time the democratic admin istration's economic policies began to take effect and that only the inter vention of war orders saved hundreds of communities from the humiliation of establishing soup houses. - Water bury Republican.

Better element of Mexico, or rather the people of Mexico you might say are not in sympathy with Villa tao tics. They are forced to the back ground from the fact conditions have not arrived as yet when the people will arise to the occasion and put down Villa and his followers. It i. the same with many other countries when they are led on by a handful ot hot-heads. It requires time before the real people rise up. It is the same ir particular communities when a mol breaks loose. You can no doubt recall the time it takes for the people tC start. During great strikes a similar state of affairs exists, so do not get alarmed over the Mexican situation ir it's present status and do not judge al
 Mexicans alike just because an outlaw of that country is riding along tho border trying to embroil the United States possibly at the instance of some other factor unbeknown to the people just at this time.-M!dletown Press.
