MEMORIAL TO BE DISCUSSED.
Council Will Consider Matter Also the
Issuing of City Medals.

AT the meeting OF the common
council tonight the matter of erect
ing a suitable mem orial to the SOL
diers and sailors of New Britain will
be discussed The mayor will ask for
authority to appoint a committee to
proceed with the work of determining
a suitable memorial. Whether it will
be g building or a monument is un-
known and it will be the work of the
committee to canvass the city and get
the ideas of the people who have
given their sons in the fighting.
Another thing to be brought before
the meeting is the matter of the city
issuing medals to all it's soldiers and
sailors who have taken a part in this
war. When first considered the mat
ter does not seem important New
Haven, Bridgeport, Worcester and
Waterbury are among the cities which
will thus respect their fighters. A
medal given by the city will be high
ly appreciated by the men for in flu
tuTe years it will be something to
show and prove the assertion that
they went to fight. The initial cost
would be small compared to the
meaning ana happin less which the
medals would bring.

hopes for the return of all American
soldiers from abroad Secretary Dan
iels said:
1T required a year and a half, with
ability to contract with British ships
to help carry 100000 soldiers to
France. Even if there were no need
for soldiers overseas-and that need
is appar 3nt-it would be q fine organ
ization that could land them home
in a year. Naval ships have been
turned into transports to felp in this
big job, and men in the naval service
are being rs pidly brought home. But
some ships and some men must stay
until a permanent peace blesses the
world"
Turning to the growth of the navy,
the secretary said:
THE American navy must be In
creased and strengthened. am ask
ing congress not to make any new de-
partures, but to authorize another
three-year program.
The United States lost less by the
war than any other great nation. It
is the richest nation and has the
longest shore lines. 1t should there
fore, contribute to the international
police a. large and powerful force.
And for this the three-year program
is necessary"
OF the prosecution of the war, Mr..
Daniels said the government has
conducted the greatest war in his
tory and expended more billions than
ever before dreamed of, and not a
dollar of the peoples money has stuck
to the hands of those entrusted with
its proper expenditure
Returning soldiers, said the secre-
tary, are coming back "to win the
greatest peace in the spirit of fell
lowship and high resolve that no
privileged class shall monopo1ize the
fruits of their valor. Men are
equally resolved that no red flag of
anarchy shall float to the breezes in
fair America"
