OTHER VIEW POINTS

We're getting food regulation all right, though not by congress. While congress talks and dodges and pro- crastinates, the selfish business inter country for two years go right ahead reaping exorbitant profits and prefect- ing their plans for concerning this years crops and squeezing new for idea what it will have to pay for food and fuel, whether with record crops, it will eat or go hungry. Our allies are up in the air Our govern ment is held up in it's plans to regu- late the export trade and enforce an embargo on Germany. Still congress talks.-Meriden Record.
 Does government suit? Do those who pay taxes and those who pay the city are conducted? Do they want more of the same sort of government and do they want it for a long time If they do, they have but to vote. or the city nanager plan. This instru- ment is a two to one shot in favor of keeping things as they are. It promises to entrench the political ma chine in dugouts thirty feet deep. The system of voting lends itself to drill ed organization. The city manager once he is placed, may hold office for q life time. He is beyond the recall, is not elected by the people, and holds most of the actual power of the mu- nicipal government. as it would be organized if the charter became op- erative. The proposed charter does something else. It takes the job of every place holder in Bridgeport and lays it on the. table for the commis sion to do about it pleases with. If there is anybody who follows the machine. but not slavishly; if there is anybody who has office from the ,I,sY I-Y44 I ence; if there is any who holds a job without having a pull those can be weeded out, when the new regime comes in, and new and more ductile placeholders installed. It will be in teresting to see what the voters do. l city in the. long run gets about the kind of government it is entitled to. City hall will never rise much beyond its source. If buttering noses will do the job. city hall will win again, and the manager plan will be a law. But if the people want city to live in If they wish to check a program of reckless extravaganza. if they want business done on business principles, they will vote as they feel.-Bridge- port Farmer.
 The deliberate destruction of the whole crop of farm produce on that Exeter street kitchen garden is but the opening move of what may become a matter for serious concern on the part of many owners of such gardens be- fore the harvest is all in. It is good to learn that the police are going after the culprits in this case. They may have been motivated by foreign sym pathizers. or simply by some personal spite. Whatever the motive, when the vandals are caught the penalty ought to be striking enough to warn off inn itators.

Miss BroUue Is
Menace to tie
Tennis Champion

Reports from the coast indicate
that Miss Molla Bjursted must look
to her honors as national tennis
champion this year.
In recent matches Miss Bjurstad
was defeated by Mrs. May Sutton
Bundy and Miss Mary Browne.
Although it was admitted that Miss
Bjursted was handicapped by playing
! on asphalt courts and by a high wind
and was not up to her usual game
still coast experts remarked that the
attack of both Mrs. Bundy and Miss
Browne would have caused the Nor
wegian wonder trouble under any
circumstances.
Miss Brownies game particularly. it.
is declared. is far superior to any Of
her former efforts. She drives the
harder and her backhand strokes are
superb. She is also much faster on
the courts than formerly and her i'm
petuous style completely upset Miss
Bjrrsted's play.
Whether Mrs. Bundy will enter the
national championship events this
year is still doubtful. Mrs. Bundy

SUGGESTS TRAINING ON
EAST COAST NEXT SPRING

Detroit, April 15.-Tyrus Cobb,
star Of the Detroit Americans, a
suggested to manager Jennings that
the Tigers train on the east coast
next spring.
There is a marked absence of fool
ing winds in Georgia and Florida and
1t would be an ideal spot for the Tig-
ers," Cobb said. "Then, too, it would
be territory that has not been visited
by the Detroit team in a number Of
years." " -
Cobb pointed out that the Wash
ington club trained at Augusta (Ty's
home) this spring and the players left
there in splendid condition.

Seventy Six Nominations in 3

Louisville, KY, April 1G.-Among
the busiest places in Kentucky with
the possible exception of army and
navy recruiting Offices are the race
tracks. From dawn until dusk elig'
ibles are training here for the Ken
lucky Derby, the 100000 racing classic
for three-year-Olds to be decided at
Churchill Downs OH May IL.
New Given Mile Trial
Training has progressed sufficiently
to permit the candidates being given
1.ialS OF a mile. Green Jones, which
negotiated the distance in las rs
tho fastest to date, ga!loped the last
eighth and pulled UP strong. Green

is the biggest Derby colt III local

North Star, Ill, the imported Sun
Star colt, for which A. X. Macomber
is reported to have paid 100000 as a
twO-year.old, was a recent arrival
with the stable of 81 horses which
the California turfman had wintcred
at Palmetto park, Charleston, S. G.
He is the probable tavorite for the
event and is counted upon as a sure
starter with Star Master from the
same stable.
Other large racing establishments
expected SCOT include those of BIZ

Grant Hugh Browne and w. r. Coe.
diary Kelly" on Grounds
J. W. Schorr's Harry Kelly appears
to be able to run fast and far. He
will be sent to Lexington with Cudgel
Penrod and other eligibles in the
ScIorr stable for a ace or two prior
to the Derby.
The most advanced eligible so far
is apparently Omar khayvan, from
Billings & Johnson's stable. Reports
from Hot Springs state he went the
full Derby distance. a mile and a
quarter, in 2:09 3-5, eased up, and
carried the weight he will be asked
to pack in the biz race.
Other Candidates
Other candidates which have ne
gotiated a trial mile in impressive
fashion include Harry Kelly, Midway
Top o the Wave. Cudgel, Ticket
Vague, Atwell,, Trevisco, KenwOo(
and Berlin.
Trainer James Rowe has not yet de
cided which Harry Payne Whitney's
colts he will ship from Brookdale
Farm in New Jersey, but they probab
ly will be Rickety and Hwfa, which
are said to be more advanced in their
tro:ning. King Ferod is regarded a:
lie most promising in Grant Hugh
Ercwne's coli ,%ctions, while JACK
Mount is conceded to be the best ir
W. r. Goes stable.
No sickness OF mishap among the
candidates in training has been re
ported. As the race is a month of
it is considered remarkable that none
of the seventy-six nominations has
been withdrawn.
