"WHY ARE WE AT WARP" An Interview by Richard M. BisseIl, Chairman of Connecticut State
 Council of Defense.

Richard M. Bissell, the chairman of the Connecticut State Council of De- fense, contributes the following state ment as one of the series of Made in-Connecticut War Interviews" being made public by the council through the newspapers. MT. Bissell's answer to this question folloWs:
 '"The question is asked: Why are we at war That question Is a strange one when We stop to consider the spe- cific and wanton injuries and insults which were inflicted upon us by Ger many and patiently borne during a pe- riod exceeding two years in duration. During this time the armed forces of Germany murdered American citizens, sank American ships engaged in per fectly lawful undertakings, and made but vague and cvasive replies to our demands for redress. When the lan- euage and tone of our protests became severe. assurances were given but were nromptly broken when Germanys nlan of campaign made a resumption of her attacks upon us worth while in her eyes. Germany was at the same lime actually plotting the dismember mcnt of this country.

ever SO patiently and for so long a time maintained peace in the face of such continuous and unrequited insult and injury The dealings of Germany with other countries and the writings and spoken words of highly influential German officials and professors have made it impossible to doubt that the German autocracy planned the econ omic and political mastery of the world. One well-known German writ CT before the great war began de- taken in case Germany should wish to impose her wilf' upon America. Prior to our entrance into the great war evidence multiplied that the time had come when the free nations of the world must band together to fight for the ideals of democratic govern ment. The time had come when the issue of the great War was plainly whether an irresponsible autocracy should hold the civilized nations of the world in a state of virtual vassal- age or whether those nations and peo- ples to whom Liberty is dear should put it forever beyond the power of that autocracy to carry out it's plans for worldwide supremacy No na- ton, great or small, it seems to me, ever took Up the sword in a ulster cause Or one where the issues were so important"

FRENCH PEOPLE GET
 RED(CROSS RELIEF
Organization to Care for Civil Popu- lation to Raise Spirits of Men
 in Trenches.

Ill l1SnClcS.
 Paris, Sept. 14.-Following a series of conferences between representa- tives of the French government and Red Cross officials. the government has been officially notified through Gen. Petain that the Red Cross or ganization is willing to supply funds amounting to several million dollars for relief work among the French civilian population during the coming winter. The French, it is understood, will work out a general plan of re- lief, which, in their opinion, would be best adopted to keeping up the morale of the civil population and then turn it over to the Red Cross, which will carry it out and finance it.
 The plan Is the continuation of a scheme previously outlined by Maj. Gen. John J. Pershing. commander of the American force, whereby the Red Cross shall specialize during the com- ing winter in ameliorating the condi- ton of civilians rather than devoting its chief energies to the American sol diers, whose relatively small wants will be cared for by the Young Mems Christian Association, at least until they are in the trenches participating in the actual fighting. The basis of the whole plan is that Am merica'S best help for the present while France still holds the entire front, is to do it's utmost to keep the French sol diers in a good state of mind by help ing keep their families physically and morally in good shape.

sues involved and that our present al- lies for nearly three years were flght- ing our battle, the battle Of all Democ- racies As we did not snare III the early struggles and sacrlnceS or the war, our obligation is the more 1mper- ative now that we too have taken our place in the battle line. The result of the contest is by no means determined. As President Wilson has said, the en- emy is baked but not beaten ana he must be beaten if our ideals are to be preserved. The wastage of men and of resources in the countries of the Allies has been enormous. There IS urgent need of every man. of every dollar, and of all the materials which this country can furnish.
 We are distinctly peace-loving people, But we must remember that the greater the effort the sooner peace of the right kind will become possible. He is no true lover of peace whose tardiness, lukewarmness. obstructive ness, or half lf-heartedness prolong the struggle Every delay, every failure to measure up to the needs of the hour, means greater sacrifice ot life and greater burdens of suffering and taxation. The men who have taken up arms to represent America in thls war will do their utmost cheerfully and bravely, nor can we doubt that ultimately they and the forces of our Allies will succeed in securing for us and future generations of Americans peace and the undisturbedd right to pursue our career as a nation without fear of attempted foreign domination if. but only if, the rest of our citizens, men and women alike. with an equally high spirit of devotion give themselves to the task of supporting tho men Ut

, vehicle. This law if properly en-
forced will prevent much of the dis
comfort and many accidents which
are caused when drivers are blinded
by the glare from the headlights of
other cars.
The third law mentioned above re-
quires that garage owners shall keep
a record of all cars brought into
their places of business for purposes
of selling, rental, livery, storage and
repairs. This record must show the
name and address of the owner, the
name and address of the person who
brings the car in, the license number
and the number of the engine. In
case it is found that the engine num-
Der has been defaced or obliterated in
any way. that fact is considered as
evidence that the car has been stolen
and the garage owner must notify the
proper authorities and hold the car
until Investigations shall be made.
This, while throwing a great deal of
work and trouble on the shoulders of
the garage owner. will doubtless
make it more difficult to dispose of
stolen cars and prevent such thefts
to quite an extent.
