GIVES SUFFRAGIST VIEWS
 ON SPECIAL SESSIOl

The following open letter from Miss Katherine Ludington, president of the Connecticut Woman's Suffrage asso- citation, to Governor Holcomb. states the suffrage position ill regard to a special session of the legislature:
 My Dear Nr. Holcomb-AIay I send you word of comment on one or two points raised by your statement to the citizens of Connecticut in regard to special session of the legis- iature?
 You speak of having received let ters from several members of~the none in favor Of the calling of spe- cial session.
 7 A petition is now in circulation among members of the legislature in regard to this matter. When this De- tition is complete it will be present ted to you in due form. This fact accounts for the absence of letters to you from favorable members of the legislature. You further say that you cannot conclude that the desire of a few wo- men-be they more or less in number ito have vote upon said amendment taken, prior to the next state session of lac general assembly creates the special emergency which would justf- fy calling the legislature together. When the legislature WAS consider ing the suffrage bills. which were un- der consideration this winter, peti- ton Of 9s,oo0 women's names was pre- @i'1e" to. HE CdtNiSS Ol WOtHeh has now grown to 103 900. It repre- sents women in the state who favor woman suffrage and is, I believe, the largest number of names ever gath cred on any petition presented to the Connecticut legislature
 When the suffrage movement has gained such tremendous momentum in is it quite fair to refer to the supporters of the movement as "a few women?"
 am convinced that as time goes on you will have such evidence of the strength of sentiment in the state in favor Of ratification that you will feel that it constitutes the special emerg- ency'' prescribed by the institution of the state as the occasion for the call ing or the legislature in special ses- sion.
 Respectfully yours.
 KATHERINE LUDINGTON,
 President,

ANNUAL OILlNG FOR CITY STREETS

Norwich streets have just received their annual coat of oil, which will lay the sdust. for long time wherever it has been sprinkled olrS the highways and will be big saving in water and in the care that would be required to keep down the dust without oil,
 In all Street Cornnissioner James P Fox has had f6,000 gallons of oil sprinkled on the streets and the work has been done much more expeditous- ly and effectively than ever before This year the oil+Ehas been laid by a motor drirenS tank machine carrying a small engine on it that furnished the. pressure to squirt the oil down and into the dust Instead Of merely lay ing it on top to soak in. The last of the work was finished up the day be- fore the. Fourth, when the last of two tank cars Of oil that had arrived was cleaned out.
 The motor apparatus that was used
Norwich bulletin., 1919-07-07

in the work was sent on from Boston } by the firm from which stlles street commissioner bought the oil the price at which fhe oil was bought included the cost of laying it. As1arge amount of work could be done blythe machine in a day and many streets covered so that the job was all closed up in a very short time as soon as the oil cars reached here. T., order to do the work most effectively. the car had to have a pilot. a local man familiar with the streets to guide the operator of the car around. The. street commis : sioner secured M. c. Higgins to do this.
 Among the most important streets treated to their annual oil Daths were Boswell avenue, Roatn street. Broad street, Grove street, Oak street, Ho- bart avenue, Lafayette street. Yantic street, Rockwell street, Crescent street, Franklin street. Summit street and West Main street.

Innnerishahln Romance.

Romance suffers a thousand deaths
vet never dies. That is as true to life
as II is to art. Edmond Rostand came
TO his great success in the peak of a
realistic uproar. He came purely and
simply as romancer, splashing all the
old colors on the same old heroic scale.
Not life as he and we saw 1t then,
and not life, really, MS anybody ever
saw II, was his theme. He placed be-
fore us life as we have 1t In our day
dreams. as we conducted 1t Ideally to
cheer and succor us with the beauty
and soft lines In a world Of hard, dull
facts.-New York Tribune.

Twenty-shot Hypodermic Syringe.

Among the war inventions that
will prove valuable in peace time is a
magazine hypodermic syringe that may
be used twenty times without refilling.
Ctvlously its chief merit is that OF
convenience when physicians and sur
geons are working under fire and in
dark dugouts where continual recharg-
ing of syringes entails difficulty and
retards operations. The instrument Is
supplied with platinum needle which
permits sterilization in a flame. The
cap that protects ii, when not in use,
is kept filled with iodine or alcohol.
When large numbers of persons are
being inoculated with typhoid serum,
for instance, an instrument such as
the magazine syringe evidently saves
much time.

Efforts are being made to prevent
the decentralization of business which
would follow If the government should
place its vast stores Of all kinds of
material on the market. There is an
enormous amount of stuff, such as
building material, tools, piping, lum-
Der and everything that an army needs
and which our army will no longer
need. If these commodities were
dumped on the market all at once II
would probably ruin many private
concerns. Wherever possible, the war
department is planning to resell the
material to the manufacturers or to
dispose of it with the least possible
harm to business firms.

Agricultural department officials say
that the farm labor situation in 1919
may be quite as serious as that or
1918. Their opinion is based on the
idea that large part of our army may
remain In Europe throughout the year.
However, it does not seem possible
that the same trouble in this regard
will confront the farmer this year. AL
ready there has been let-down In
the industrial world and men are not
so eagerly sought after now by the
factories and mills. Whether men who
have had taste of factory work will
want to try their hand at farming
is the question whose answer will
probably decide the farm labor situa-
ton for 1919.

one more greatest war revenue
bill in the country's history" was pre-
scented to the house last week by
Chairman Kltchin Of the ways and
means committee. As fixed up by
the conference It provides for the col
lection of about $6,0O0.0O0 600 in taxes
from the American citizen. and in adj
ditlon II gives bonus of $50 to each
soldier, sailor marine and woman
nurse In the American forces. Pretty
nearly everything one possesses or
does will be subject to tax Even
the president and all other federal
officials must pay tax on their ia
comes, though state officials do not.
The normal income tax for 1918 Is
per cent on Incomes up 10 $4,000
and II per cent on higher incomes
After 1918 the normal IL per cent
on incomes up 10 $4,000 and per
cent on those over $4,000. The pres
ent normal is per cent.
The income surtax rates begin nj |
per cent on incomes OF $4,000 to &c.
600 and run To 65 per cent on incomes
Of over $1,000 900.
Provision is made for both war and
excess profits taxes In the fiscal yenr
but after that the war profits tax
comes off. except in certain specified
eases where war contracts run over
in later years.

States the grape growers were able
to dispose of their product for max
ing various kinds of wine. But pro-
hibition struck wine as hard as 1t did
other alcoholic drinks. and there has
been every indication that the vine
yards of the country would be de-
stroyed. Perhaps they will be saved
by the relief from taxation which Is
obtained in the pending revenue bill.
While the S100.000,000 food bill for

ing debated in the senate Senator
Hardwick of Georgia asked If it would

upon senators were startled to hear
loud handclapping in the gallery. The
offender was ordered removed, but II
turned out to he soldier, and sew
eral senator's came to his rescue. Pres
ident pro TEN Salisbury, who was In
the chair at the time, withdrew the
removal order and William Alden
Smith of Michigan escorted the sol
der 10 n better seat In the private
gallery. Suffraglsts and soldiers seem
to be the only people who can applaud
In the senate and get away with 1t.
