STATE MUST PAY
 FOR TROLLEY co. Has to Make Up Deficiency of $577,ooo in Bridge Accounts of
 Connecticut Company.

The state must pay, temporarily at any rate, the share of the COnnccti- cut Company for the erection of the new bridge over the HOusatOnic and over the Mystic river and to do so must transfer $577,oOo from the roads and bridges fund and 'loan" 1t to the company for an indefinite period This was determined in a bill favor ably reported to the legislature this week which apprOpriatcs the amount specified the committee explaining that it must be taken from road funds now and has to be paid, as the board of control has had to take money from the current road funds to make payments as due on the bridges
 The Connecticut Company's share on the HOusatOnic bridge is $500, ,ooc and on the Mystic bridge $77, 1000 Like amounts were assessed on the county and the state, and therefore the COmpany's failure to do it's share places the burden soildIy on the tax paying public, which is also paying 10 cents ride to the company
 In addition the finance committee of the Legislature has reported favor ably on a bill reducing from 4 I-2 pei cent. to 5 per cent. the rate of taxa tlon on the gross income of street railway companies It is estimated that it will deduct about $I5o,ooo { year from the revenue which the state has been entitled to receive from this source under the existing rate.

LABOR COMMITTEE HAS CLEAN SLATE
 IN LEGISLATURE
Makes Record Complete by Kicking Out Lost of the So-Ca1led
 Labor Bills.

While not actually "Labor" meas ure, the bill proposing definite minimum lunch hour for workers in manufacturing establishments was evidently considered as one for the committee on Labor of tlic General Assembly returned an unfavorable re- port on it this week The bill was advocated by the Consumers League and was designed to ensure workers at least a half hour for a noon-day meal. It was strenuously fought by the Manufacturers association.
 The unfavOrable report on this measure, makes the record of the La bor committee complete for the ses- sion, not one bill favored by Labor and intended to remedy the conditions of workers generally got by the com mittee. So antagonistic has been the committee that instead of being called the committee on labor" a more ap- propriate name for it might be "the committee of anti-labor."
 Throughout the session the only consideration Organized Labor and its measures have received has been from the committee on the judiciary, body made up entirely of lawyers. The report on the increased com pensation bill is a sample of the judic- iary committees attitude, even though 1t did report in favorably the anti strike bill, to which many of the com mittee members are even now op- posed, since they have come to un- derStand what 1t means

FARMERS PEEVED AT WAGES PAID TO
 UNSKILLED LABOR
State Board Joins Coterie Blaming Labor for High Living
 Costs.

Organizcd Labor and labor advo- cates got another wclung thls week in a report to Governor Lake Dy the state board of agriculture, and as usual the bleat of Secretary Healy laid all the blame for the h1gh costs of living to the wages pald the WOrk- CT. while at the same time glOsslng over inc high prices demanded by the farmer for lis products. He also took 2 shot at the "city fellows" and their davlight saving and put halo around the brows of those who till the Sol! but still find time to spin a weave o1 adverse laws every session around the city worker Said MT, Healy III his report; .,u ,,;,h oos4 of living on the farmers doorstep by many of our labor agitatOrs and the opening of the door to his domlclle and the throwing of the gauntlet at his feet have cemcnted the tanners together in a determined movement that he shall only be blamed for the disturbance which he creates. Ii our city friends are really deslrOus ot cheapening the cost of farm products and of increasing the quantity pro- duced, 1t is up to them to assist the farmers to kill this daylight saving proDosition The number Ot farm la borers has decreased 25 per cent. be- cause of the daylight saving law alone, and many of the farm owners have closed out their dairy herds at auction and quit working their farms and gone into some manufacturing plant where they can get better wages than they were able to obta1n through their farm operations ana shorter hours as well.
 "The labor situation has been serl- ous. All sorts of manufacturing com panies have increased the pay of the laborers, therefore, bidding for those working upon the farms, while the farmers have strenuously tried to keep the necessary farm workers but could not pay them the prices that they could obtain in the city with many of the enjoyments of life there in which did not come to them i'll a great many of our farm homes.
 "The wages demanded by skilled farm help has become in most cases prohibitivc and that of our common farm labor is even worse when we consider the number of hours they are willing 10 work and what they expect to do in the hours in which they labor. A movement from the farm to the city is not wholly the re- suit of the war. It has been in cvi- dence for more than 20 years but the recently increased wages and shorter hours of labor offered by the manu- facturer have accelerated the move ment."

He rubbed it and did all the usual things, but it still troubled him, and every now and again he had involuntarily to wink
 When he got to York he went into the buffet and asked for glass of milk This being served he gulped it down and then realizing that something was wrong he said to the barmaid: That wasn't milk was it?"

WHO ARE THE CAPITALISTS?

The capital of the country is not
owned by rich men; it is owned chief
ly by Uncommon people. 1t is own
ed largely by the common people.
1t is owned largely by those holding
savings-banks depositsand insurance
policies, and by those who own few
shares of stock which they have pur-
chased by means of saving, often
hard and almost cruel that you and
others like you have made.
Of all railroad stocks in the United
States about 90 percent are owned
by holders of few shares only The
stock Of one large railroad is held
by more than one hundred thousand
owners, and almost half of these are
women.Of the stock of another with
twenty-seven thousand holders, and
nearly one-half women, more than
twelve thousand holders are owners
of fewers than eleven shares each.
The savings-bank of Massachusetts
alone hold over one billion dollars Of
investments of capital in business and
governmental enterprises.
The insurance companies of the
United States haveinvested four bill
lion three hundred fifty millions in
enterprises and this is the property
chiefly not of the rich but Of the
thrifty common people.
The colleges of the country have
about $3.50 invested for each student
enrolled, and from the earnings OF
these investments of capitalize col
leges are in part supported.-Profes'

ROUNDS THE AMERICAN DOLLAR
ISTOWN, MAY 90 TO %

The New York Times speaks of a
protective tariff as a ,,vicious cir
Gle" 1t is a circle, all right, or the
maker of a circle. 1t keeps the
American dollar circulating at home.
If you send dollar to buy goods, the
dollar is gone, thereafter to circulate
on the other side of the Atlantic
If you buy American goods with that
dollar as you are encouraged to do
by a protective tariff, the dollar
goes from the retail merchant TO
the jobber, to the manufac turer, to
the laborer, to the groceryman,to
the farmer, to the blacksmith, to the
iron miner and on around the circle
til it gets back to where it started
Now that may be a vicious circle,
but we think not.

UNCLE SAN WANTS
SCHOOLS IMPROVED

Washington, April 26. Important
steps in the direction of providing
better educational facilities for the
entire country will be worked out by
the Republican leaders of the House
and Senate during the new Congress
1t is the idea Of the committees
on education Of the Congress that
the facts warrant the enactment of
remedial legislation. They call at
tention to the fact that in the Uni
ted States at the present time are
100000, white, illiterates, and
and 2,1S0,000negro illiterates There
notread orwl'ite any language Three
are 100000 foreign-born residents
of the country who cannot read
and half millions cannot speak or
write English.
The financial loss estimated by men
we'll informed as a result of Hitter
acy alone is 1925, 100000 annually.
The Director of Mines and Mining
recently showed that out of a milli-
on men employed in the mines, -620,-
600 were foreigners and 100000 could
not speak English. He attributed
1000 deaths and 10000 injuries to
inthe mines annually TO illiteracy
One-half of the industrial acct :
dents that occur annually are attrib-
uted to illteracy.
The first draft in the recent war
disclosed the startling fact that one
fourth Of the boys called to the col
lors were illiterates
Between Is and 30 percent We're
physically detective, and it is insist
ted that 80 per cent of the defects
could have been removed by intelli-
gent training as to hygiene and SIM
pie diseases during childhood.
OF the total draft, 100000 were IL
literates. With our boys called TO
the colors, the ages being from just
below 20 to just above 30, out OF
100000, 700O 900 were illiterates.
These facts are startling and
shock our national conscience.
Let US turn to the present condi
ton of the teaching body of The
United States. The average pay OF
teachers does not exceed $3.50 yeal
One hundred thousand are less
than 20 years of age; 10000 have
only a grammar school education
100000 have less than high-schoo
education.
