Withhold Anonymous Letters to Awaits
 Ruling on Contents

The local postal authorities are on guard here against an anonymous let ter which is believed to be prejudicial to the best interests of good govern. ment and which were destined by an sender to have wide cir culation in the state.
 At New Haven five hundred of the letters are now held from delivery pending a ruling by the solicitor-gen- eral upon the text in relation to the postal laws.
 Postmaster Charles F. Greene in this city will take similar steps upon the appearance of the letters in Bridgeport mails. The matter is said to be anti military in the extreme and even goes as far as crying for an over- throw of the army and navy.
 The origin of the letters which have flooded the New Haven postoffice and resulted in the withholding of more than five hundred from delivery by Postmaster Philip Troup, is as yet un. known.

DRAWING PEOPLE
 TO THE FARMS

To promote the Back to the Farm Movement, the Farm Settlement Board of New Brunswick is display- ing motion pictures depicting inter- esting phases of farm life. In this country working people are begged and fmplored to go back on the land and raise food but they are slow to do so.
 The great majority of cftified peo- pie look upon farm, life with horror. Theya may bes living fin some dirty. un- sanitary, crowded tenement. Coun- try life might be cheaper, healthier. more comfortable. But existence un- der the stars and the wide spaces of the sky would seem horribly lone- some to them.
 These people miss the companion- ship of crowded streets. They like the stir and motion and life. of it. They enjoy the gossiping with neigh bors. There is always something doing. Encounters with the police. street fights, the rattle of the hurdy gurdy. the cries of the street vendors the mischief of the kidlets. all these and thousand other incidents make slum life pleasant to people who have always lived in it.
 It would seem as if under the pres ent conditions, the money motive must have some effect Farm labor brings better wages than it used to. The farm hands get high priced. vegetables for nothing, it does not cost them much for clothes. Unless they are spendthrtfts, they and their families could have money in the bank at the end of a year.
 Land is high, yet somehow the for eigners manage to get farms of. their own. They rent little piece of land on shares. sell half their. crop for good prices. and in a few years they are ready to take farm on a mort gage. It is good proposition for hundreds of thousands of families. The movies and all other form of pub iieity ought to be used to make it Seem Interesting.

zEPPELINS DROP MANY BOMBS IN RAID ON LONDON

Berlin, March 19, via London-An attack on London, lasting one and one half hours, has been made by Zeppe- lins, the war office announced today. Bombs were dropped successfully and the airships returned safely.
