am moved to utterance by the lady
who said "the servant question is unsolv-
able"-she was so terribly right. 1t is
contrary to the spirit Of our country, for
one thing.
Slaves we have had and helpers we
have had, but not mere servants. The

 While 36 bombs have been deliv- cred or intercepted in various cit9sE- all apparently mailed from New York in identical parcel post packages Postmaster Patten said: "The like Hhood that other internal machines will be brought to light in the next 24 hours is absolutely appalling"
 The postmaster said that evident Iy the packages were mailed with a view of reaching the address on or bout May l. This is indicated by the fact that parcels reaching the Pa cific coast bore the postmark of April 23. Those detained here were put in the mails April 26."
 Persons in touch with the Federal and municipal authorities predicted today that the haunts of the Reds here would be invaded and many ra- dicals deported. This opinion was expressed after a conference which ended after midnight attended by Police Commissioner Enright, to W hom one of the bombs was address ed and County District Attorney Swann, United States Marshal Thom- l as Mccarthy and Department of Jus | tice investigator. It is understoo o d | these officials decided to put an end 1 to leniency toward anarchists and 1 others of their type in New York. | After the conference Commissioner F.nright ordered police reserves held ready in every district where it was
 thought that May Day demonstra- tions might take place.

 The desire of conquest may still finger in the hearts of some nations after peace" said Secretary Daniels. and such nations must be shown that it would be unprofitabIe to at tempt those desires
 As the League of Nations becomes established. Secretary Daniels, added. the naval police force wOulI certainly de decreased in proportion to the strength of the League.
 The secretary has just returned from a visit to the interned German battle fleet at Skapa Flow He de- clined to express an opinion as to the disposition of these German war ships.

Although China is said by the Pe- king despatches to be demanding the absolute return to her of Shantung province and hiao Chau, it is con- sidered improbable that the Council of Three will reconsider it's decision.
 Reports from Paris and Rome seem to indicate a disposition on the part of both the Council of Three and the Italian government to reach some sort of understanding as to the Plume question that will permit the Italian delegates to return to the con- ference without loss of dignity. Con ferences between Premier Orlando and Thomas Nelson Page, American ambassa dor, took place yesterday at Rome, MT. Page later reporting to President Wilson.
 There are reports that the Soviet regime at Munich has been over thrown. Other despatches state that the German government troops are still some distance away from the city, although closing in on the So- viet forces.

 Senator Hough was sorry to dis agree with Senator klett, but he said the principal tended to destroy the New England Sunday. The governor was within his rights to criticise the bill and what he had said should be needed.
 "The governor has been loyal to his state, to the general assembly and to God Almighty" said Senator Hough. Some of these things he may have overlooked. What Rhode Island has done should not be a guide to our action. Everyone should surrender some of his opinions to those of the governor, who has lived longer than the rest of us and has served the state longer. We should be asham- ed to vote to pass this bill over the governors veto"

Lashar After Western Trip Sees Good Times Ahead For All American Enterprises
Continued from Page One)


 The trouble with most manufac- turers is that they do not have the nerve to build up their stocks and keep their plants going. The coun- try is being rapidly restored to nor tnal conditions and there is absolutely no reason why stock should not be manufactured to meet the extraordi- nary demand for all classes of man ufactured goods that is to follow.
 About 80 per cent. of all manu- factured articles are staple goods, for which in normal times there is a steady demand and these can, and ought to be, made ahead of the de- mand.
 The wages Of the working man are not going to be reduced to any great extent, if at all, and I think that the time is soon coming when the workmen will have a greater share in the profits than they do now.
 ''The business man should have faith in the future of the country: if he has not he is not fit for his job.
 For several years the American Chain company has been building up a foreign trade with its own repre- sentatives. Reports from our men in South Africa and in South America. have exceeded our expectations; and we had very high expectations, too In Australia where we had an eXten- sive trade before the war, which was interrupted by our inability to make deliveries in war time, our orders have greatly increased.
 On the Pacific coast on this last trip I had the pleasure of booking the largest order ever booked there. While in the middle west where our busi- ness is principally with the manufac- turers of agricultural implements, and allied trades, the orders were very good.

Seeking To
 E 0reclose Valuable N Plot on State St,

Memories of the Macfar1ane Bros Mfg. O., which had a plant in this citv about ten years ago, were re- vived in the Superior Court today when the Connecticut National Bank brought suit to forec1ose on property formerly owned by the company and having frontage on State, Ash and Dewey streets.
 The bank claims that in 1909 the Macfarlane Go. issued bonds and nortgaged the West End property to the bank as security for the issue.
 Later the Macfarlane Go. sold the land to the Newfield Silver Mfg. Co. This company went into the hands of a receiver in 1918 and the bank has started the present action against the Newfield Co. as the title to the property is in the name of that con. cern. It is claimed that the prin- cipal of the Macfarlane bonds is due and that the bank has paid S2,- 272.42 insurance on the property.
