PUTNAM

Through action taken by the town school committee. Putnam win lead the way in eastern Connecticut in the advanced work of arranging for the care of the teeth of pupils in the schools. This matter has been un- der consideration for some time and an arrangement has been reached un- der which the work can be undertak- en almost at once.
 The committee has authorized the
 purchase of a dentists chair and the necessary apparatus for cleaning the
 teeth. J. A. P. Gagne of the com.
 mittee and Supt. w. S. Macdonald of
 Putnam's school are named as a com mittee to select a room where the care of the pupils teeth will be un- dertaken. and this room likely will be in one of the city's schools. for the
 greater convenience of the pupils. The children in the lower grades will be the first to receive attention from the dentist who will do the
 work. The work will be undertaken at an early date and is expected to
 be carried on steadily thereafter un- til the children in the various grades
 have received attention
 1 The following letter, signed by Put
 nam's dentists, indicates the attitude of the dentists toward this important work in the schools, a work that is
 regarded as highly important by some of the most eminent educators and
 physicians in the country:
 William L. Macdonald, l Supt. of Schools,
 | Putnam, Conn.
 | Dear MT. Macdonald: In accord
 ance with the promise made by the
 dentists of Putnam at meeting witt
 you and the school nurse, we held an other meeting last night, the purpos,
 of which was to consider differen work necessary for the proper car of the teeth of the school childrer l of Putnam could best be carried on ' We came to the conclusion, afte careful consideration that ther should be no charity work done b, l the different dentists at their privat offices, but that the town or tn school committee should hire a den
 tist, pay him a salary and establish an office, in a school, in which denta , work should be done.
 st School work done at this offic t should be paid for at very low rate 3 and not with the idea of purpose c s profits. n case of poverty or mis s fortune, arrangements should be mad e so that the patient. without loss ( e self-respect, can be treated. e If there is any legal difficulty in tn l, employment by the school committe |, of a dentist, then it would seem e proper thing to enlist the aid of th e I Parents Teachers association or th Y Red Cross.
 k The compensa tion paid by the pr r. pil or parent for work done at tn e school dental clinic would probabl Il not pay the whose expense of the ot
 fee. but it would render the amour r. to be paid by the town or the orgar : ization carrying on the work small r., CT.

 Philadelphia. Pa.-Do you wear glasses? Are you a victim of eye strain or other eye weaknesses? If so, you will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope for you. He says neglect causes more eye trou- bles and poor sight than any other one thing Many whose eyes were falling say they had their eyes restored through the principle of this wonderful free prescription. One man says after trying 1t: T was almost blind; could not see to read at all. Now 1 can read everything without any glasses and my eyes do not water any more. At night they would pain dreadfully; now they feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me" A lady who used it says: ""The atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glasses. but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear. l can even read fine print without glasses" It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a req sonable time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as

Eric H. Johnson of the school com mittee and Supt. Macdonald of the school have been named by the school committee to confer with the Red Cross organization here to see wheth- CT that society will undertake to pro- vide for the expense of having the major wor kdone on school children's teeth. The committees programme so far provides only for the clean ing of the children's teeth.
 The school committee has procured 8 large supply of tooth brushes and tooth powders and will see that these are distributed among the pupils at
 nominal prices.
 It was also stated Tuesday that at all times when work is being done on children's teeth at the school clinic nurse will be in attendance to aid the dentist who is at work. Raymond Cannon, the Providence young man who had his skull frac- tured when the motor truck which he ! had been driving was struck by an electric car at Danielson Monday ev- ening, was said Tuesday afternoon to l De in dangerous condition at the Day I Kimba1l hospital. where he was op-
 erated upon Tuesday morning by Dr. | s. B. Overlook. The skull at the tor and back was terribly crushed in and a crack extended down one side to l the ear.

cluding Senator Harding himself, or they would have to declare themselves also for the Lodge reservations. Tn the latter case the league would have dls- appeared as an issue.
 Governor Cox would have cast aside
 the burden of Wilson, and the demo
 cratic campaign might have been turned into an aggressive attack upon
 the republican party and upon the
 Harding theory of party government Governor Cox had two courses open to him. both courageous. He might
 have accepted the Wilson league issue |,outright, or he might have accepted the league and repudiated the Fresldent unwillingness to compromise to the extent of the Lodge reservations. He chose the former and in doing so, Tn the opinion of most of the leaoers here who brought about his nomina- Ition. he selected the most difficult political ground to stand upon.
 WANTS ISSUE CLEAR CUT l Tn inc opinion of Governor Cox, If .he league question is cleared of tech nicalities and presented simply as one of league or no league, the verdict or the country will be in favor or the league. He evidently thinks that Sem ator Harding's declarations on the league permits of presenting this sim ple issue But in suggesting the res ervations of his own the governor has opened the way to the kind of technical I discussion that went on in the Senate llast winter and wearied the country with the whole subject of the league. | The republicans will not be slow to 1ask what Governor CoN's reservations mean. Do they accomplish all i'll the way of limiting this country's commit ments abroad which the public feels necessary? What about Article x? IS | Governor Cox's second reservation snt-
 icient to keep this country From as
 suming the broad responsibilities pro
 vided for in that article?
 | There is room for endless debate. The question is not likely to be the simple one of league or no league. but is not no league bettef than one about which so mitch doubt prevails, as the
 republicans will suggest regarding the
 meaning of Article X, as modified by
 the very general language of Cover lnor Cox's two reservations.

WAR WOULD MAKE
 ENORMOUS DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS
World, However, Hopes AL lies Can Prevent Soviet From Forcing Ger
 man" Peace on Poland
nx THEoDoRE H. PRICE

New York, August 9.-(SpeciaL)-In the
 United States the barometer is not much
 changed. The area of low pressure has
 shifted to Europe, where the advance of
 bolshevism has created some apprehen-
 sion, but those who believe in the per
 manency os civilization must have faith
 that the firm support which Europe ;
 statesmen are giving to Poland will pre-
 vent the imposition of German" peace by the soviets and stop without recourse
 to war the further spread of a cruel and tyrannical anarchy.
 At this period of reconstruction, an other European war, which some cable dispatches have suggested may prove necessary, would multiply the economic abnoramilities from which the world has
 been suffering and delay incalculably the restoration of business equilibrium.
 The immediate effect, however, would be an increase in demand for what this
 country cah supply, and though general fear of unknown has caused indus trial stocks to react to lower levels, no interpretation of the news can log ically indicate lower prices or curtailed business in America. During the past week the commodity markets have re- flected what is perhaps subconscious appreciation of this truth, and the de- clining tendency has been checked though not yet reversed.
 EXTENT OF DECLINES As the extent of the decline which has; taken place in many staples is perhaps not generally appreciated, the following comparison between the high prices of the year and the recent low prices may be illuminating:

any suggested reservations. They can raise a cloud of words over the two apparently simple reservations What the governor has proposed. he has elected to join issues with them on their own territory.
 Thus the governor probably will not have his way of presenting the issue of the league or no league. simply and without technicalities. To the voters his opponents are masters of the tech nicalities of the subject. He is not. He is repeating the mistake of Will son. The public grew impatient with the President because, though he was would not accept the Lodge reserva- i lions. They could not be made 10 see where the Lodge reservations broke the heart of the world. England and France, an important parc of the world | indicated that their hearts were not
 broken. Why, people asked, what this l bother about words? And now comes l own.
 He is not for the Lodge reservations, though. perhaps, he indicates demo- cratic senators who voted for them
 were justified in doing so. He is not for the Wilson reservations. He is for
 an entirely new set of reservations. It is a bold man who at this late udS WOulO DIlliB lOl " d Au new itocl V O tions for the covenant. He runs the
 risk of having the people say "A plague on all your reservations" The thing that has steadily weakened the league with the public and perhaps killed it was the debate upon reserva-
 tions. The republicans know this. they will be glad to debate Governor Cox s
 reservations from now till election day.
 they could not have attacked the Lodge reservations had Governor Cox lndi-
 cated a willingness to accept them 1T they proved the best compromise ob-
 tainable.
 It is for this reason that Governor
 Cox's friends here feel that he has made political mistake in his speech
 of acceptance. The real hope of Cox
 lies in bringing forward his own rec ord of competence as governor; his skill and en-handedness in handling labor disputes and his promise, through a budget system and by economies, to cut the national expenditures and re- duce taxes.
 Speaking here, he gave the impres" sion of sincerity and competence. His position on the league indicates his sincerity and independence. The men who brought about his nomina ton are all against it. He did not consult them. but all he stands for, all the issues he I would like to raise will probably be overshadowed by the question whether the Cox reservations reserve enough.

half a dozen striking successes. This statement applies to published reports of a failure occurring in Macon, Ca. last week which was eagerly seized upon by the bears in the cotton futures market. The oversold condition of that market is. however, evident in the ease with which it has recovered.
 In the. stock market the industrial shares, particularly the oil securities, are lower The decline reflects the prevailing pessimism and in many cases intrinsic Nsldes and income

 Undoubtedly there are many bargains now to be had in the securities mar kets, particularly among the railway

 the roads will enjoy when the advance

 Esch -Cummns bill specifically directs
 the interstate commerce commission
 to "as soon as practicable prepare and
 adopt a plan for the consolidation of
 the railway properues or the com

 commences to take shape many rail roads will have a strategic as well as an investment value, and there may ] be eager competition to acquire them RATES AND LIVING COST Whether the advance in railway | rates will add to the cost of living de- ! bends upon whether the increase IT 1 revenue will enable the roads to move l freight more promptly.
