NOT A CHANCE

We understand from press des-
patches that the Department of State
Is considering the lodging of protest
eminent In demanding access to the
warehouse in Berlin where former
Ambassador Gerard stored his house,
hold effects when leaving the Prus-
sian capital at the time the United
States severed diplomatic relations
with Germany.
The officials of the Department Of
State know far better than we what
they are doing and it is not for US to
criticise their action. 1t may be per-
fectly proper to enter protest against
such high-handcd actions on the part
of the German authorities and in JUS
tice to Mr.. Gerard the Department
evidently fees that it must make at
least a formal attempt to protect the
interests of an American citizen. But
as to the possibility of obtaining the
desired results by such a protest, we
DOUBT very much whether even Wash
ington is hopeful on this point IF
Germany has decided to confscate
private property OF Americans who
once resided there no power in the
world can stop it from doing so and
Mr.. Gerard has reason to understand
this better than anyone else
The chances of rescuing such pro-
perry after Germany once lays hands
on it are even less than those of the
proverbial SNOWFALL in Hades, We
know somebody not a thousand miles
from here who left household effects
in a territory now occupied by the
Germans and that person told us that
if the enemy starts on a hunt for
American property In that particular
section Of the war zone he never ex-
poets to see his furniture again.

Britain which exist today. Again, the
list of heroic New Britain men men
uoned by the Times" having
fought Or as fighting now for this
country; it's reference to the two local
lads who nobly laid down their lives
for us in the present war; and the
mention of the success in New Brit
ain of the Third Liberty Loan,-ali
these facts clinch our assertion that
the Times fully agrees with us in
our statement that New Britain is
nevertheless a loyal community, and
1t does not want its fair name be-
whose attitude on war issues is ques-
toned in the least" This our state
ment, receives the unqualified en-
dorsement Of the ""rimes" editorial
writer who says in another place that
it Undoubtedly represents the pa
triotic tons Of the city of locks and
door cheohSk~
Finally. we can only bring this
little mutual admiration party to
close by expressing ourselves as fully
in accord with our contemporary
who has not lost faith in New Brit
aim Neither have we. If we had,
we wouldn't be here. And because
he believes that hope is not yet lost
and that zone cannot understand
New Britain in a week" we beg to
express the hope that he will honor
us with a call, either for a day, or
g. week, or a month, SO that he can
see for himself daily occurrences sup
porting these statements OF ours in
which he concurs 50 heartily.

HAVE YOU BOUGHT A BOND?

A local four-minute speaker
brought out very APPLY at one of our
theaters the other evening the fol-
lowing point: There are only two
classihcations possible for persons
who have not yet bought a Liberty
Bond, Wig, either they belong to the
class of those who feel that they can
not afford to buy a bond, or to those,
who, though able to buy, have not
and will not do so. OF this latter
class, said the speaker, we must be
on our guard. They are to be Stunned
and avoided as enemies of the coun-
try. So much for them. But as for
those who feel that they cannot af-
ford to buy a bond. the speaker in
sisted, and he was right, that they
must realize that at q time like the
make sacrifices. They are not ex-
enpt. They must 10 without this or
that thing which they would other
wise buy and with the money thus
saved buy q Aaberty Bond. Under
the easy payment system there are
really very few who are actually so
poor that they cannot deposit a dol
lar or two down and pay the rest
I'm small weekly or montI1ly sums.
1t is the best investment O. person
can make Let each one ask himself
the question-If have not yet bought
a bond. what Is the reason? No man
With average intelligence can very
long remain in either Of the cate
sories described. Moral-Buy q Bond.
