which we have not the authority to comment. It is his business entirely. Doubtless he is satisfied that the greater efficiency can be gotten out Of his workers as employees of an open shop, and past events make this seem correct. He claims that his workers arc not thoroughly or ganized, that the majority of them do not care for organization and that some have been made 10 strike through intimidation. If there is not union majority in the steel mills there Is certainly no occasion for the government favorinE the turnover of the plants into closed shops, that Is certain.
 The testimony at the investigation has been confusing. Both sides have advanced perfectly reasonable argu- mcnts, one of which oNcrbalanceS the other. There can be no decision as far as we are concerned, it Is a mat ter for the steel capitalists and the Workmcn to settle. and it is evidently on tho eve of a settlement The pub lie has to suffer for the strike but there is nothing that It may do eX- ccpting take the proper steps for the protection of itself through loss of life in any riots or miniature wars that may be precipitated. The his tory of the strike, so far, has been comparatively bloodless however.

Cider Days.

Manchester HCrald)
 Golden September cider will take the place this wear Of the traditional brown October ale. Apple trees that formerly were passed a thousand times and never noticed arc now re- gardcd with d kindly interest Verging alnos on affection, and their crop is guarded jcalously. punN apples that once were legitimate spoil of youthful bandits have taken on value beyond even the imitation of all things edible. They have become precious, not so much because they arc q food, but because they arc a drink and an open sesame to joys so cruelty suppressed by new born laws
 Those whose clay has long gone dry with prohibition may yet fill them - selves with something akin to the "old familiar Juice" and laugh at the sting and mock of tho victory of the others who would cheat them of their last surviving joy. Kitchen peace tables and grocery store green tables need not be barren of the stuff.
 "That can with logic absolute,
 The two-and seventy jhrring sccts
 confutc."
 What autumn road is not familiar with the sight Of farmer driving to town with his barrel and bags of ap- pleS? And again. later, the same farmer, the same barrel, but the np- plcs mystcriously gone? It is turi- ous alchemy indeed. Certainly the farmer appears content with the con version, almost happy.
 For in the barrel is the relish of q mediocre meal, tho comfort of d drah hour and the path that leads away from the daily round of toll to de lights as thrilling as they are unreal That desire for a moment of happi- ness, an interim of fOrGctfulncSS can not he lcgislated away. And the bar rel contains. for those who can find no other, the stuff of which dreams are made
 The most rabid of antiS cannot but regard the substitute from the cider press with an easy tolerance. As a beverage. it's span of life is short; sOOn-all too soon for sOmC-it changes and at last t truly has the bite of serpent and the sting of an adder. II becomes a nauSeating liquid | from which even tho most forlOrr | must turn. disru9ted.

FIREWORKS BETTER
 THAN AT CARNIVAL
Committees PyroteChniC Display
 ExCelS That Of Oct. 19

The heads of the various commit tees in charge Of the service mems WcLcOmo Homo celebration met last evening Co listen to the reports on the various bills that were incurred. When the bills of the carnival com = mittcc came up there was consider able criticism Of The Herald s editorial of yesterday regarding the carnival receipts and which, in the opinion of those expressing their views, was malicious" The editorial was read at the meeting.
 ''Wo want retraction," sald Mayor George A. Quigley. He add1d that 1t hurt New Britain, and he moved that the committee demand proof of the "asscrtion" in the cdi- torinl or a full rctraction. He said that he would sign a statement and demand a rctractiOn. Ho advocated sending the editor of The Herald d strong letter "raking him over the coals'' and signed by members of the committee.
 "Tts the writing of n boy," eX- claimed II. J. Porter.
 Dr. Martin said that he has had somo experience with tho carnival business and added:
 II think I know a little more about 1t than Jack Vance,"
 Dr. Martin then explained that d game such as rolling the balls, If played constantly, would not turn r, over SC an hour. The dodgers husi- ness, carrying three mon, would not turn in over SIS a night. The busi- ness of the Ferris wheel he estimated at $24 an hour. The merry -Ro-'round at five Conts a ride, has got to do a big business to show $50. Dr. Martin then showed the number of men and tho amount of equipment going will shows. The carnival carried 205 people, of whom about 175 stopped in hotels and rooming places, and he estimated they left about $4,00O as board while here. The transportation charge of the carnival 10 New Rrita in was $1,200.
 'If Cnrnivals made as much money as outsiders estimated, they would be millionai"es at tho end of a season" |" Dr. Martin declared. The size of crowds does not indicate business"
 Chairman Humphrey remarked that the Charter Oak Fair, at 50 cents admission, would not show a revenue of $200.000 for week
 pr. Martin then explained that the animal show, ono of the popular features of the carnival, had a seating capacity of 500 people which, at 26 cents a person. meant $45O for a full house, but the three performances held at night were not fully attended,

CIN(INN ATT WINS.

The Cincinnati baseball team sprung a welcome surprise on the city yesterday when it took tho first game of the Worlds Series from it's Chicago opponents by a score of nine to one. The other fellows were the general faVorites In the betting though the winners were undoubtedly the idols of local fandom because of the par ticipation of "Hilly" kopf.
 It was the fourth inning that saw the downfall of thc visitors when the home team was able to push five runs across the plate and when Ci- cotte, star of the White Sox pitching staff, was forced to retire from the the opposing batsmen. From that time on it was obvious that Cincinnati would be the victors in the first game and that the Sox will have to take come contendcrs in the rest of the series.
 The Herald was on the street at . 15 with d complete account of the game inning by inning and the base "nll extras were eagerly grabbed up locally. At four o'clock our regular edition went to press 10 be followed by the baseball edition. It was a fast game, as baseball goes and this paper was able to give the details of the play within two hours after play started, half way across the continent. An hours difference in time account ed for the seeming discrepancy be- tween the time of publication and the end of the game. This paper will continue to give similar service dur ing the series. printing an extra as soon as it's sporting department is able to figure a box score from the details that we receive over cur Associated Press wire.

\ Bonus For Soldiers.

(Watcrl ury Amcricnn.D
 Bills 10 give large bonus to war veterans are before congress and provide for the spending of billions. They arc the introduction to future bills providing for the expenditure of many other billions during the next 50 years or more. Old timers know by experience how hard 1t is to op- pose thesc measures and how inn possible to defeat them. Every gratc- full citizen wants to deal generously by the men who went through the hell of war, and give them more than they can reasonably ask. But the matter quickly gets into the hands of professional agents. who play on the timidity of politicians, and congress is swept off it's feet and can never re- cover them. Since the end of the Civil war the soldier vote has been to force the hand Of congress for moro and moro money until even now, 54 years after the close of the war, the pension bill of the govern ment amounts to nearly $1SO, 900, 900 for the year 1918. In view Of the na- turc of the bills now before congress that largo amount of money will be but insignificant drippingS from tn" spigot of the treasury.
 It is 10 be hoped that the American Legion at it's November meetings in Minneapolis will take a strong self respecting position on the matter and try to keep it a matter of gen. crous national gratitude and not a scandal Of pension grabbing.

 Dr.. Martin made a brief statement after the report was read in which he said that it was originally figured that the revenue Of the carnival would be offset, dollar for dollar, of expense incurred. He figured orig inallY that the carnival might pos sibly turn in $l,500, but instead it turned in $2,S00. II should be borne in mind he said that the first ap- propriation of $3,500 for the celebra- tion has not been touched and ex- pensos have been met frCm carnival receipts which might properly be ap- portioncd among other committees. He pointed out that Inc free attrnc- tions, originally figured at $1,20O was cut down, and the shows were paid for from the carnival receipts. The policing of the park during the week was also paid for from the carnival receipts. There were other items, which if paid by other departments would make a bigger showing of profit from the carnival. Dr. Marx tin answered questions concerning other items and the committee ac- ccptcd the report with thanks to the committee.
 The Welcome Sign.
 Early in the meeting the commit tee considered a bill of $S06.95 for the "wclcomc" sign placed in front of city hall. The bill is for $SO6.95, itcmlzcd as follows. Carving, $3O1.S0; carpentry, $333.41; deco rating, $l71.74.
 Secretary Sprague said that the bill had been brought up because the committee in charge of erecting the sign was absorbed by the Colebra- ton committee. The sign was erected last March and at that timc the com not more than $500. The big item on the bill was the carpentry. There was some discussion and tho opinion was that the carpenters had taken too long in their work. But the question was who was to pay the bill, whether the committee that had it in charge or the celebration com mittcc that had nothing to do with It. The opinion was that the bill should go back to the committee that contracted it..
