The Fifth District.
Grid G'epCrt Post. J

Evidently the republican workers
Of the fifth district are not in accord
with the views of the republican
rulers in Bridgeport. They insist on
standing behind Commissioner Frank
+. Ballard. despite his removal from
the town committee.
Now the fifth district is perhaps
the most vital cog in the republican
machine. Time and again its or
Ganlzaton has turned in ninety five
per cent of its rcgistcd party vote
ana when the total for tho city was
counted it was the fifth district whirh
furnished the win.
IN the work of pcrCccting this or.
GanizatiOn Commissioner Ballard has
been q most active factor. II is adj
mitted by all tho experienced politj-
leader. One may rot agree with MI.
Billiards. methods in politics and 50
far as we know they in no way dit
fer from those Of the average dis
trict lcader-and still recognize his
efficiency of leader ship.
But it happens hat he has not al
ways obeyed orders. Then, too. i've
has dared on one or two occasions to
jllllH LOT nlll1Sell, also TO ACT. ! IN
perial rulers have always cIasscd
such men as dangerous. In oIdcn
times they would be "rcmoved." just
as in these times. Tho difference Is
that in those distant days they gCn-.
orally lost their heads, on tho ground
that dead mon can do no harm. We
have progressed somewhat. Now
tho punishment is limited to forci0Ic
removal from official jobs, wherever
possible.
Fortunately for Mr.. Ballard his
position as county comm iSsiOnCr
comes through the county and St@'",
otherwise some way would he found
to get him out.
Apparently the Gfth district does
not appreciate tho immense value If
q dictatorship. 1t, 100, is inclined 10
think for itself. \ pretty little ua'-
tie as it stands.

First Offenders.


The report OF a special committees
which VAS appointed by the Glasgow
corporation to inquire into the QueS-
! ton Of the probation Of Offenders will
| be presented to the council at its
meeting tomorrow.
The committee expresses the Opin-
| ion that tho four chief causes Of tho
| alarming increase in Juvenile crime
| and offenses in Glasgow and through
out the country were due to thC slack
| ching of parental control, tho lack OF
moral and religious training and tiS-
ciplinc, the want Of innocent outlets
| for youthful energy and the absence
Of homo attractions and tho mode and
! surroundings of life in poor and over
crowded houses.
one of the most striking points
brought out by the inquiry. states the
report, was the opinion of the Judges
| OF the high court. sheriff and other
| aut hortieS as to the positive harm
done by not dealing more severely
! with offenders in the first stage OF
their career, when there was some
hope that stern measures might con-
vince them and their associates that
i crime did not pay, and the commit
| tee, therefore, suggests that the only
! real deterrent for certain class OF
! young lads was either a sentence OF
whipping or committal to an indus
| trial school or rcformatory. Whippins
| blight with advantage be specially
, adopted for second onenseS, and If
this were generally expected it would
undoubtedIy have a great effect as IL
! deterrent.
Birching should be more rrSortCd
| to by ma Gistrates i'm dealing with ring
! leaders of youthful gangs, and the
| age during which this method Of pun
| iShmCnt could be inflicted should he
! raised to s. The secretary for Scot
land should be urged to amend the
children act, 1908, so that boys who
/ had been birched. if again brought
| before a court, should he sent 10 an
! industrial school or training ship. It
was only by removal from bad COM
| partnership and environment that in
many cases any permanent improve
| mont could be expected.

HUNGER is popularity considered to
breed BoIshevism. We have seen &C
tual proof Of this. Now, by a strange
prank Of fate, hunger appears in the
role of an ally Of established govern
ment and Democracy.
From Vienna, described as being
the "hungriest capital Of Europe"
comes a dispatch to the New York
Times which has a touch OF humor as
we'll as its drab strokes The prolc-
tariat OF The Austrian city would pre-
fer to join Trotzky and other mad
disciples Of a crazy patchwork gov
eminent butlthey fear to act because
they are dependent entirely on the
Allies tor food "In Budapest hunger
helped the Communists; in Vienna it
fought against them" the dispatch
says. The government is kept in
place by the absolute famine over
which it presideS Lett to it's
own resources its mia bita nts' would
literally starve to death in a week.
AL lis lOl iiltl supply VI lOOt, COtl ana

10 such straits has the spinclcss
policy of Europe's most ancient, most
arrogant dynasty brought proud Aus
tria. Twelve trainloads of provisions
and supplies reach Vienna daily. and
but for these tho city would be q des-
crt Of the dead. 1t is difficult to rec
oncile this drcary, eNpressonless,
tragic community with the former
| capital OF mirth, hypnotic music and
gay night life. The old picturesque

No nictatiOn to Italians.
tNtW York w Orld.D

When Mr.. Orlando complains that
the prcsdon' in his statement on the
Fiumc affair went over the head Of
the Italian government and tried to
place the Italian people in opposition
TO their lo51l representatives, I've is
dealing with his state Of mind rather
than with tnC facts Of the case. Mr..
Wilson mac" no appeal whatever to
the Italian HHOplc against their, gov
crnment. He discussed the Adriatic
demands o. the Italian pIcnipOtcn-
tiariCS and explained why the United
StatCs could not accedC to them. The
interests ar, not now in question. 3"
he said, bat the rights of people, Of
states old and new. of ljberatc cd
peoples whose I'ulers have never ac-
counted them worthy Of a rig Int
above all. thC right OF the world to
peace and % such settlements OF in
tercsts as snail mako peace secure"
If Mr.. Orlando can find any anront
in these sentiments il is only bcca use
his own poj1cios could not be squared
with any Nrcccpt of international
justice and security. and he feared to
have them submitted to the impartial
udemen OF all the nations.
President Wilson has not UNDER
taken TO dt;SOciatC the Italian people
from the Italian government. lie has
done nOthi: g moro than to declare
that the r'ted States cannot b" a
| party TO ali imperiaIistic peace that
| gives the lie TO all the professions Of
prlnc'plc that have been uttered dur
! lnS IN" las two years. In malling
| mat decision there can be no doubt
'hal the president speaks for an Over
| "helmlns majority of the American
| people and for the cnliehtened opn-
| ION or the whole world This is a

PEACE PROSPECTS BRIGHTEN.

Until moro is learned concerning
the adjustment of the Japanese uucs-
ton at Paris discussion should be in
a tone Of moderation. Other than
the announcement that the subject
has been disposed Of nothing official
has been said. The brief news dis
patches on this matter say that Japan
is to receive kiao Chou on the shan
tung peninsula with the understand
ing that it is eventually to be returned
to China. In order to satisfy public
opinion in the United States it will be
necessary that the Allies obtain from
ia pan a pledge specifying the date on
which the property is to be handed
back to its rightful owner. The ad-
iustment is already being hailed in
some newspapers as u victory for
Japan
Italy seems TO be in a mood for
cancellation regarding the Fiume
question and a compromise is limited
at Indications arc not wanting that
Premier Orlando is willing to return
to Paris if his wounded pride is
healed. Thus, almost as If by ma eic
the clouds overhanging Versailles arc
beginning to break. The new day for
titles toe spirit Of optimism.

NEW ASSESSMENT SYSTEM

New Britain is in Il fair way TO en-
Joy the benefits of scientific assess
ment system, following the report Of
special committee to the Common
Council last night, a progressive step
that should have been taken years
ago. The plan suggested is reported
to have been employed successfully in
other cities. 1t does not preclude er-
rors, but 1t removes from the Board of
Assessors the authority to establish
property valuations on the strength
OF opinion.
s- ii was unfortunate that the report
of the committee could not have been
presented to the Council in time for
Il more complete discussion and in
spcction. The members of the COM
mittes have devoted several weeks to
their assignment and it was hardly to
be expected that the Council could
pass on it intelligentIy in d few hours.
AS the Assessors are about to COM
mence work for the year there was
nothing left for the Council to do ex-
cept to adopt the rccommen d a tons.
Objection to the hiring OF expert
assistance is not wholly unexpected
Experts usually demand high prices.
If the inequality of assessment that
has prevailed in the past can be elm
mated and if the city will receive
taxes commensurate with property
values, the expense will be a wise in
vestment.
