CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS.

An excellent stroke of political wis dom must be conceded to young Mr. Will H. Hays, -commander-in- chief of the Republican party, in his program not to accept large campaign contributions toward the party war chest. For many reasons it should go far to esta blish the G. o. P. more firmly with the voters. man who has dollar invested in an enter prise will exert himself to a greater extent for that enterprise than a man whose dollar is in his pocket or in the bank MT. Hays applies one princi- pie founded on human experience to his management of the party in his
 There is another side to the case. It has always been claimed that big business powers, those the people re- gard IS trusts, have contributed lav- ishly toward Republican campaign ex- penses, the inference being that in re- turn they expected the passage of leg islation favorable to their interests. With a limit of $1,0O0 placed on the amount an individual or concern may give to the cause, the party will be freed of such stigma. A third point is that the Hays policy will remove from big industries the necessity of thunl b. ing the check book every four years, or whenever the exchequer shows signs of exhaustion.

DID WE MEAN IT?

.s By our deeds are we known # During the war the public was loud in its praise of the Salvation Army. It Was. something more than on-the- surface admiration. It was the real sthing, right from the heart. And Everyone said that if the Salvation Army ever asked for funds or assist ance of any nature, everyone would
 give generously even if at a personal sacrifice.
 F Today New Britain stands in the
 shadow of something akin to dishon-
 or. The Salvation Army has asked for
 money. It has extended it's hands for
 $13,00O. The result has been a feeble
 response. Up to yesterday less than
 half the amount had been contributed
 and the campaign is fast drawing to
 a close The question is raised-and
 it cannot be sidestepped-does New
 Britain intend to keep it's word to the Salvation Army or were we merely
 talking when we spoke in such glow I faced all the horrors of war with calmness and a firm determination that. come what may, the boys in the trenches would have some of the or dinary comforts of life?

It gave for those who were lover There" No" It Is asked to give for those lover Here -for the unfortunate men and Wom- en who have been b1udgeoned and cudgeled by a hurrying and crueI world, for those who need 8 slap on a +he back. a kind word, meal no" and then and a helping hand to sci S them on their feet again.
 Did we mean what we said when we pron1ised to give to the SalVatlor Army or were we only bluffing?

RTTN AND STARVATION.

Brockdorff- Rantzau complains that the Allied peace terms would impose economic ruin and starvation on Ger many.
 When the Huns broke down the heroic resistance of Belgium they inn posed economic ruin and starvation on that land.
 When the Huns overran Northern France they spread economic ruin and starvation roundabout them.
 When the Huns rushed in a tidal wave over Serbia they sowed economic ruin and starvation in their path.
 When the Huns ripped their way into Poland they effected economic ruin and starvation there.
 Is there any reason why the Huns should not now have taste of the medicine they forcibly poured down the throats of helpless millions? But the Allies will not be so exacting. They will at least withhold starvation. However, by all the rules of the game thev are justified in stifing the eco homie progress of Germany until Bel gium, Northern France, Serbia and Poland have become industrially and financially regenerated. At present they are under a handicap. Their factories are little more than disor- derly piles of bricks. Tuberculosis and other consuming diseases result ing from malnutrition have reduced the productive power of their peoples Germany should be held in leash unti her victims recuperate and are ready to start on an equal footing with one who did not play the game fairly.

rescntinG Japs.

Tokio,. May 1, Correspondence of the Associated Press. )-It is under stood that the forthcoming return of Niscount Ishii, the Japanese ambas- Sador to Washington, is connected with misunderstanding concerning the appointment of a financial advisor to China.
 The Japanese government appoint ed Baron Sakatani financial advisor to the Picking government. Before talk ing this step, however, the Washing ton government was "sounded' on the question. Viscount Ishii, it ap- pears, reported to Tollio that Wash ington had no objection to the ap- pointment. Later, pr. Reinsch, the American minister to China entered a protest to the naming of Baron Sakatani.
 This led to inquiries at Washington, and it transpired that a misunder- standing had occurred and the Amer ican government had not approved the appointment.
 Viscount Ishii, who had the con- trary impression was much embar- rassed and requested a leave of ab- sence. The entire question may be explained as due to language difficult ty.
 Viscount Ishii is regarded here as very able diplomat and efforts will be made to induce him to remain in the service of supply department tQ at Washing gton.

NEW BRITAIN IGNORED:

While no fault has been found with the quality of the men selected by Governor Holcomb for the new State Board of Education, criticism has been heard in New Britain because he did not select the member at large from this city. The board is com posed of nine members, one apiece from the eight counties and one at large The representative for Hart ford county and the member at large chosen by the Governor are both Hartford men, on which the criticism is based.
 New Britain's educational system is recognized as equal to if not better than any other in the commonwealth. We have a normal school here and a modern vocational school in which the state has a financial interest. Also, New Britain can boast of educational leaders whose standing is high and whose presence on the state board would fend dignity, prestige and brains to that commission. It is not quite clear why New Britain was over looked.

"FOR \ GOOD LITTLE BOY"

Congratulations to Fairfield county, that much maligned segment of our glorious state. For some time we have found a favorite pastime in printers ink iabs at Fairfield. Now we will try to do the handsome thing by making up for past deficiency in not assaying khe county at it's true worth. Some times we have not been duly apprecia- tive of Fairfield county politicians. At other times we have referred rather bluntly to it's wild and woolly man. ners, it's street murders, it's large pop ulation of highwaymen, etc..
 But at last the halcyon day of the lawbreaker is passed II is noted in the Bridgeport Post of Thursday that the criminal superior court which had been sitting in that city. for the past seven days passed out of existence without 8 single jury trial. The jury men were there ready to do their good and true duty. But their most i'm portant morsel for thought was, when was it going to stop raining? Nary a prisoner whose case demanded jury action was brought to the bar. This Is recounted on Page 1.

Working Hard to Restore Roads and Bridges to Permit Allied
 Advance.

ArchangeI. May 23, (By Associated Press. )-American railroad troops are playing an important part in the rapid advance of the Allied troops southWard along the Murmansk rail- way. The Bolshevil1i as they move southward are destroying bridges in an effort to hold up the Allies in the sWampy terrain. The Americans how ever, are working hard putting the track into shape again.
 American motor launches have been brought on flat cars from Murmansk and it IS said will soon be operating with other craft on Lake Omega which is connected by rivers and canals with Lake LadOga, the largest in Europe, the NeVa river and PetrOgrad.
 The artillery continues active on the Archangel front and there are raids but no serious fighting. Several hun dred American infantrymen are still on the fighting line on the Dvina and Vega sections. They will soon be re- lieved. American engineers continue to work on nearly all sectors.

MIR. HINES AND STEEL.

Mir. Hines accusation that the steel producing companies have combined to keep prices up and possibly to send them higher will have no beneficial effect on the country although his ac ceptance of the bids for 100000 tons will stimulate buying among those who have held back their orders. It is possible that the steel manufactur CTS know as much about the steel bus mess as MT. Hines. The report of the Industrial Board was based on actual conditions in the trade. For the steel men to have submitted bids lower than the price reached by the board would have been an admission that conditions were misrepresented when the board conducted it's investigation.
 Expansion throughout the country has been retarded by MT. Hines with holding approval of steel prices. When the Railroad Administration baked al the figures, private consumers fell ir line and refused to buy. As a conse- quence little steel has been sold ano the mills are running at only two thirds of their strength.
 Whether Mir. Hines disagrees with the producers is of small importance Even if the price is high the loss caused by paying it is infnitesima compared with the damage done throughout the nation by stagnatior of industry.
