SOLDIER DEAD IN EUROPE.

For some PeasGn or other the war department Ss not giving the irn- pression that it is going to do it's ut most to see that tie todies of the American young men who fell in bat tie ar died in France will be brought back to this country as soon as pos sibfe. It is to be remembered that the government gave it's solemn promise that this would be done. In March of last year the secretaries of the war and navy department agreed that the remains of all officers. en- listed men and civilian employees of the army, navy and marine corps should be buried in France until the end of the war and then be brought back to the United States for final interment.
 Now there is nothing else to be done but to keep that agreement. It is of course true that this promise applies only to those parents or re- latives who ask to have such trans fers made. There will be many who will take the same view that Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt did regarding their son. They will prefer to let the limb stay where it fell. but there will be others who will look to the government to bring home the bodies of their dear ones that they may be buried where their graves can receive attention and their visits.
 Sentiment varies of course in regard to this matter. but that is all the more reason why the wishes of those who want the bodies brought home should be complied with. France may for health and other reasons decree that the bodies of it's own soldiers can not be transferred within three years, but in view of the service that has been rendered in it's behalf it can hardly be expected to stand in the way of the transfer in view of the pledge that has been made by this government to it's people before France enacted or suggested any legislation upon this matter.

BETTER USE FOR IT.

, There are many things for which scongress is being asked to appropri- Ae money these days. and no one recognizes better than the members sof congress the necessity of carefully guarding the way in which the avail

 amounts sought and those granted. sbut regardless of this evidence of the 3determina ton of congress to elimin- late what can be delayed or what is 1considered unnecessary at this time

CONFERENCE ON THE rREArY.

The conferences between the presi- dent and the foreign relations com mittee of the senate may or may not have cleared up points of doubt that exist in regard. to the treaty provi- sions and the league of nations. but 1t was certainly a gathering that<could prontabiy have been held some time ago. It was a session where the sena- tors endeavored to place before the president some of the matters upon which not only they are in doubt but the country is also and it is quite evil dent. even as the president and Sec retary Lansing disagreed in their opin ion regarding the action of Japan if the Shantung peninsula provision had 0 been left out, that there are different viewpoints which are worthy of con- sideration regarding the questions that have been raised.
 Whenever it was possible for him to do so. President Wilson answered promptly and freely the questions put to him. He evidenced desire to give the senators whatever information he could and showed himself to be closely in touch with the work of the peace conference as was to be expected. On the other hand it was made evident that the senators had been giving the matter close study and they made it plain that it was their purpose to clear up any mis- understanding at this time rather than after the treaty has been adopted, and it must have been made evident to the president that much more would have been gained in hastening the ac- ton on the ratification of the treaty had such a conference been held upon his return from Europe and the sen ate been consulted or kept in touch with the steps as they progressed across the water. Whether the ex plantations made will alter opinions remains to be seen. It may however help to clear up some misunderstood ings and help to advance the matter to a decision.

 One of the suggestive incidents of the attacks on high cost of living is short weight. This. of course, is praiseworthy, but raises the query why the laws. which are ample, are not enforced all the time. Why wait for excitement and tense situation Every town has its sealer of weights and measures, and Connecticut has in addition the state police department, UudeF the circumstances short weight dealing should he rare in this com monwealth and it will be if the officials do the duty they are appointed and paid for.-Bristol Press.
 Several divisions of regular army men have recently come home from overseas with little in the way of re- ception awaiting them. They who vol unteered for service while the others waited. they who saw most of the fighting and the longest service, have had the misfortune to be delayed while the welcome committees were fighting for place on the dock. Hence they come uncheered, unhenared anf un- sung.

EleHrINa FoR pkrNooRAp.

Efforts to WreSt Pecrograo. rom the control of the bolshevilxi have been made before. Not so long ago there were indications that the opponents of Lenine and Trotsky were Eoing to gain possession of the Russian capital without serious opposition, but at the moment when success was anticipated reverseS were experienced. important stronghoids had to be abandoned and the effort became failure. IL was one of the spasmodic undertakings Of the anti -bolshevik forces that promis- ed we'll at the start but lacked the strength to carry 1t through.
 Since then Kolchak has experienced disconcerting reverses but now while he is reorganizing his forces and strengthening his line. and while Denekin in the south is rallying his supports for new gains, what an pears to be a new determination to take Petrogrsd is underway with the British fleet playing no small part in the attack upon Krorstadt. the fort ress defending the capital.
 This blow comes at a time when the British land forces around Archangel are showing renewed activity and should have an apprecisble effect in relieving the pressure that kolchak has been bearing for some weeks. The loss of bolshevik warships and the report that Kronstadt is in flames indicate that the attack is more than target practice. It gives the right sort of encouragement to the army of the northwest and if what has been accomplished by the naval forces can be followed up with siMtr lar victories by the army the amhi- ton to get Petrograd from the bol- sheviki ought to be realized at no distant date. The lack of united ac- tior among the snti- -bolshcvik forces $ such he ewever that the wisdom of rot counting the chickens before they are matched is apparent.

seems to be little doubt today but what the people. even if they are not able to quote juat the exact quantity of v&vieua lxtuds Of foodstuffs in stor- are the frat Of the month. understand pretty thoroughly that the gtorage plants are being used for the hoard , ing of food and it seems unnecessary that the government should spend a half million more in repeating and elaborating on the information.
 On two previous occasions the de- partment has been refused this very appropriation. and certainly 1t seems as If half million dollars could be put to better use in the unearthing of this hidden food that is contributing so much to the costs of living.

 Similarly, signals from aircraft re- ceived at two land stations in com munication with each other enable the position of the machine to be laid down at the apex of triangle of which the line joining the two stations is the base.
