 Ladies Catholic Benevolent -Associa- lion meets ill St Joseph's Hall.
 After a stormy session of some forty i've minutes voters Of Wii1imantic as sembled at the town hall voted to ap- propriate or give the common council authority to appropriate the sum of S6,- 900 to repair upper Main street, and the sum of 5000 for repairs on lower Main street. The motion to appropriate S2eee additional for the purpose of lay ing a concrete roadbed this side of Jil- son Hill from the present stretch of concrete road to Thread Mill Square was lost
 The meeting was called to order by Mayor Charles A Gates, and the city clerk read the warning Corporation Counsel William 4. kinl1 was then call ed upon to read the resolution asking for the sum of se,G00 for the repairing of upper Main street from a point about opposite the Almshouse to the Mansfield town line. This road will be repaired by the state highway commission at the cost of s1 per linear foot the distance to be built measuring about $500 feet. The state was to keep this highway in repair in future years and the city would have the right to open the road although
  ter the opening took place. City Engi- neer Robert l.. Mitchell was next called upon and he stated that the city could not do the job less than S2 per linear foot and maybe not at this amount.
 Attorney P. J. Danahey took the floor and statzd that this road was a trunk fine and the state already held certain rights over those lines that could not be interfered with. The state was re- sponsible for liabilities and was duty bound 10 keep the road under fit re- pair. Why waste the money to repair this road, he said, hasn't the street de- partment of this city already admitted s shortage of help? Then why-ask- for more money to repair roads when it only means that it will come back on the taxpayers Of this city and they will be called upon to pay for the repairs when the tax is levied next year.
 Mayor Gates then put the question and he response of ayes downed the few nays. The city had appropriated the amount asked for.
 Corporation Counsel King then read the second resolution. which asked the voters to, authorize the common council 10 appropriate Sa,000 to repair lower Main street from a point at the bridge on Brick Top road to 8 point just this side of the entrance to Recreation Park Lawyer Danahey again took the floor after the motion had been put and sec- onded. and in scathing words gave Sup erintendent of Streets Irwin NJ Ford what could properly be termed. "a bawl- ing out After stating the conditions prevailing on some of the city streets some of which were. Prospect street west, Mansfield avenue. and Jackson street, Attorney Danahey' came out with the statement. that he was surprised that nothing had been done to these streets Of course, he said, it is more important 10 fix that section of the street used by officials of the American Thread Com pany, for they must have good roads to -ide upon. Other people in the city us- ing streets do not count. Repairs on

decision with reference to the Adriatic question
to bind this country without his participation
in the result reached and his approval of it. He
stands on his attitude toward the Fiume ques-
ton Just where he did when he was in Paris
taking part in the peace deliberations. At that
time he refused to be bound by the secret treaty
of London made without the knowledge or con-
sent of this country, and held that where this
treaty violated the principles on which the ar
mistce was based they must give way to the
IA points Of that agreement This stand on the
part Of Mr.. Wilson provoked storm of reproach
and invective from Italy, but it was accepted by
France, England and Japan after the president
had ordered the George Washington to be got
ready to carry him back to the United States.
After the president left Paris and became q
very sick man through his efforts to put the
treaty over by an appeal to public sentiment the
allied powers got together and made some sort
of compromise settlement of the question with
Italy and notified the new Southern Slav repub-
lie that it must either accept that compromise
or the full terms of the London treaty with Italy
President Wilson was not consulted about this
change of front. He considers it violation OF
the principles on which the armistice was based
and also V1OlatlOn OF Ihe agreement Hlaue os
him at the time he signed the peace treaty and
Franco-American treaty and agreed to ask the
senate to ratify them.
That much is clear from the dispatches from
Washington. It is said in Europe that he plain
ly intimated that he might withdraw the treaty
from the senate's consideration Of such breach
of agreement with him was persisted in. How
ever that may prove to be when we have the doc
uments before US, there is no doubt left in any
ones mind, either at home or abroad, that Presi-
dent Wilson is force to be counted with, and
that his "singIe track mind will not be shunted
off on to any siding without his consent. If any
one is Of the opinion that the state Of the presi
dents health is such that his yigor of mind or
speech is impaired the events of the last few
weeks ought to cure them Of that impression.

THE ADRIATIC QUESTION.

European newspapers generally describe the
note of President Wilson protesting against the
decision of the supreme allied council on Flume
and the Adriatic question as a "bombshell." The
note of the president to the allied premiers has
not been made public in Europe or in this coun-
try. Neither has the reply of the supreme coun-
Gil to the Wilson note been made public or the
presidents reply to that note. But these docu-
ments will doubtless be made public in a few
days. The president has expressed his willing
ness to give them to the public, and London
cable says that the supreme council has decided
that publicity is desirable in order to put at rest
many sensational rumors as to their contents
Until they are published and we know just what
was said on both sides, discretion suggests that
it may be wise to avoid comment on them Es-
pecially is this true in such comment as deals
with the merits of the contention on each side.
1t is plain that we ought to know the facts be-
fore discussing the merits of these notes
However, there is one phase OF the contro-
versy that deserves comment at this time. What
ever these notes may contain it is evident that
President Wilson does not propose to permit

THE DEMANDS OF ALTRUISM.

A good many people i'll the United States will
feel thrill of sympathy with the man who, ac-
cording to the Wall Street Journal wrote the
following letter in reply to a request for check
for some altruistic purpose from a professional
uplifter and philanthropst The harried man
replied thusly:
For the following reasons | am unable to
send YOU the check asked for. I have been held
up, held down. walked on, sat on, fattened out,
and squeezed. First by the United States gov
ernment for federal war tax, the excess profits
tax the liberty loan bonds thrift stamps, CAPT
tai stock, merchants license and auto tax and
by every society and organization that the inven-
tive mind of man can invent, to extract what |
may or may not possess. From the Society OF
st. John the Baptist, the G. A. r., the Womens
relief, the Navy league, the Red Cross, the Black
Cross the Purple Cross, the Double Cross, the
Children's home, the Dorcas society, the \. NJ.

man race; and because I will not sell all | have

There have surely been drives in plenty II
recent years. Everyone who wants money for
any purpose proceeds to divide the country into
districts and organize drive to raise the afore
said quota. The organizers of the drive pick
out the citizens who have proved themselves
easy marks in the past, and they 60 after them
hammer and tongs to separate them from the
sum of cash they have assessed against them.
The tightwads are eliminated from the drive.
It is too hard work to get the cash from them.
The organizers generally select the men who
have given the most generously in the past to al
truistic purposes and lay siege to them. The
more generously they respond the more fre-
quently they are visited by each new drive or
ganizer. Evidently such one is described in
the Wall Street Journal and he has been driven
to desperation. 1t is fact that this business of
soliciting subscriptions for atrustic purposes
has been running pretty wild of late, and must
soon work reaction.
