 The Soldiers. Sailors and Marines. kosriusko Post of War Veterans, and the American Legion. all have cam paigns under way. T. is taxing the beneficcncc of the public to ask for a fine building for each one of these organizations, it is not asking too much when it is suggested that. one place be built to house all of them. They may keep their identity far as the! wish, as separate organlza- lions. although there are mon who are probably members of all three, even while being housed under one roof and they may be sure that the one roof will be d much handsomcr, finer, one than if there were three. The uurse of tho public is limited 10 a certain extent and cannot build, for 
 would he a pride to the city and to the soldiers themselves.
 There is. at present, sum of money. we are not acquainted with the actual amount, in the hands of certain people in the city which was previously raised with the intention of placing il into a municipal memOr- ial building. The city has, it is be- lieNcd. some money which was to be turned toward the building. Each or sanitation in New Britain is as de- serving as the rest in the receiving of tho funds in public and private hands. Tho members of each saw i'm tonsive service ill a common cause. But who may say to which Of the vet eran posts may go whatever sum is now waiting to be given for building: IL is not fair to give to one rather than another. The only solution is the splitting of it into three sections. the greater to go to the organization which has the largest membership. the next to the next larger. and so forth This is liable to create confu- sion, however. as ;he membership is, to some degree, ''inieIlocl>ihg."

Snail Eggs Breed Strange Disease

kind Of %dystentery.
The malady in question is very
prevalent in Porto Rico. It occurs also
in other parts of the world, though not
in the United States. There is always
danger, however, that it may be intro
duced into this country by persons suf-
fering from it.
