FOR BETTER ENGLISH.

Plans for National Speech Week must certainly appeal to every thoughtful person who rubs elbow $ with the tides of humanity that flow along the streets of any American city. The object of the program is to pro mote the use of correct English, to reclaim in part the arid lands in which slang and mutilated speech flourish like cactus.
 A profound knowledge of language is not required to recognize the lam entable decadence of speech. the inability Of the average person to use two consecutive sentences composed of pure English On curbstones, and in parlors where etiquette is rigidly observed, plural subjects used with singular verbs, or vice versa, as well as other atrocities such as double negatives and split infnitives. bespat- ter conversation.
 SedTCn or pleasure ndS JeIt the nation no time for more serious pur- suits, such as the study of the lam guage we use. There has been too much dependence on slang phrases Expression Of thoughts with consid- eration for grammatical construction and for choice of words is becoming a lost art In high places and low, the orgy goes on.
 Superficial education in a land which places every facility for gaining knowledge at the disposal of it's pco- pie is probably to blame for our lack of high standards in speech The statement has been made recently that ninety-four per cent, of our popula- tion have not the equivalent of & fourth grade education. Any effort that will correct the evils born of this condition should receive whole hearted support. National Speech Week" is one of these efforts.

 To the owners of the New Britain Herald, their publishing plant gutted by fire and flooded with water used to extinguish the flames, The Times extends it's sympathy.

STATE APPROVES
 OFFER FUR SCHOOL
Appraisal of $ll6,2O0 For Normal Buildings Meets
 With Favor.

Plans and specifications for the first at New Britain are to he obtained at once by the state board of education as the result of action taken by the board at its meeting at the Capitol yesterday morning in accepting the appraisal of SIG 200 for the old build ing which the city of New Britain is to take over. The appraisal has al- ready been approved by the New Britain common council.
 '"The board Is now ready to proceed with the contracts" Commissioner of Education A. B. Meredith said after the meeting. He said that the plans and specifications would now be drawn up, preparatory to calling for bids subject to the approval of the state board of control. The 1921 General Assembly appropriated s750,s0O for the new normal school plant at New Britain. The architects are Gilbert & Batelle of New York and Newark. who were successful in the competi- tion about year ago.
 Drop Correspondence Courses.
 Owing to the lack of interest in the correspondence courses in opera ton at the Danbury and Willimantic State Normal Schools, the board voted to abolish these courses beginning July l, 1922. Commissioner Meredith explained that this action was neces- sary because only two or three appli- cants asked for these home study courses In teaching this year. The correspondence courses were in large demand at the time the system was lnauEurated several years ago.
 The correspondence courses" said Commissioner Meredith, were in lieu of one years work at the normal schools. This Is unnecessary now be- cause there are enough high school graduates available for regular at tendance at the normal schools. The correspondence courses cannot take the place of normal training Actual experience and class room demonstra- tiOn are necessary. Very few persons have avaied themselves of the courses in recent years"
 Library Comnittce Named.
 Members of the Connecticut Public Library committee were also ap- pointed by the board yesterday. The members include Charles D. Hine of Winsted, former secretary of the state board of education; Miss Caro- line NJ. Hewns, librarian of the Hart ford Public Library; George J. Vogel of Torrington; Frederick W. Edger- ton of New London and Comm ssioner Meredith.
 The board authorized the establish ment of a vocational course in aeri- culture at the sharon High School under the provisions of the federal Hughes act. Lafayette ]. Rob ertson, jr., of South Manchester was appointed instructor.

Workmen have begun the tHsk of readying for occupancy the Herald plant, which was gutted early yes tcrday morning by a destructive fire and mechanics arc busily salyaging what machinery was not totally de- stroycd by the early morning blaze.
 Already work has been started on the re-roofnG of the Herald build ing, Throughout thc upper story. where the blaze was almost totally confined, the debris Is bring removed reparatory to the construction of new partitions and the making of other necessary repairs.
 A representative of the Goss Printing Press Co, Of Chicago, ar rived in the city yesterday after noon and after thorough examina- tion of the Herald press announced that it will be ready for run as soon as the rollers are returned. Be- cause of the terrific heat in the v- cinity of the press room, 1t was ne- cessary to send the rollers 10 New York city for chemical treatment before they could be put into serv- ice again.

 The paper was printed on the press of the Hartford Courant, through the courtesy of that paper. The type-setting was handled by Herald cOmpositers in the compos ing department of the Courant plant generously aided by the Courant employees. When the edition was run off the press it was rushed to this city in touring cars and automobile trucks. and distributed at the tenn porary office of the Herald, which is opposite the building destroyed
 Business was transacted as usual yesterday in the new office. Until such time as the burned building is ready for occupancy the temporary quarters in RogerG Recreation building will be used.

WHAT WILL TIE ANSWER BE.

After taking all the facts into cons iteration. we must confess to lack of enthusiasm over the so- called Norwalk experiment by which the Connecticut Co. will charge a five cent fare to determine whcthe, it's business can be conducted profit ably on that basis.
 A few nights ago the Herald ad- vised that Judgment be withheld on the subject, It is with no desire to encourage pessimism that we ana face the facts, hoping that the con- clusions arrived at may not be so dark of aspect as they now appear,
 Like all other communities in Connecticut, Norwalk has been af- fected by the business depression with the usual result Industries are being operated with reduced person nel. Pennies are being carefully husbanded where dollars were flung UbulS tO lue Iouf "luuS lew short years ago. Domestic economy is being practiced It would be a norma patronage of the transpor- tation system could be revived over night by such simple act as re- ducins the fare. The truth of the matter is that fewer people will have cause. to ride than would be the case were business activity nor mai. Result: The Connecticut com pany will not be called upon to pro- vide its usual service.
 Add to the foregoing the fact that hundreds of people have learned the pleasures of walking, pleasures that are reflected in improved health ana purse, and it will be seen that the experiment will not be conducted under conditions which can permit of a fair verdict.
 There are so many persons engag- ed in the task of spreading woe and depression that we hesitate to pub fish such a dreary opinion. It's only excuse for existence is to warn the public against being surprised if, when the experiment is concluded, it is announced that the only sane basis of operating the trolleys is on q ten cent fare.

TAX REVISION |S !
 CENTER OF BATTLE
Soldier Bonus Question Still One of Principal
 Issues.

Washington, Nov, 3,!The tax revi- sion fight in the senate haa nu,I0wed down today tg three principal issues the soldiers bonus, excess profits amendment. the sales tax and the corporation income tax. Senators in charge of the measure thought these could be disposed of in two days and that the bill could be passed by Sat urda% night, al the latest.
 'unslderatio ion ,t the revenue meas urc for committee and individual amendments was concludeo last night and senator DenroSc, ot FennsylNania in charge of the bill, hoped to get to the big issues immediately after the senate convened today. Whether the soldiers bonus or sales tax fight would come first had not been deter mined.
 Each of these issues was expected to be good for tho jor portion of a day and extended debate was in prospect. Senator Reed, democrat, Missouri, w. lead the fight for soldiers bonus, Ipported by Senators simmons of North Carolina, Walsh, of Massachusetts and other democrats.
 Senator Lenroot republican, Wis consin, was to head the senators Ap- posing the sales tax, while Senator SmoOt, republican, Utah, author of the sales tax plans, counted on the support of a number of senators from eastern states in carrying the de bate. The quiet campaign among senators for this form of taxation was being continued and opponents conceded that the vote would be close, but with majority against the Smoot plan.
 Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, plans to renew his fight for cor poration income tax so graduated that corporations which have not been making excess profits will not have their taxes increased by 50 per cent. as he contends would happen if the senate re-affirms it's action in in creasing the 10 per cent rate. to a flat Is per cent rate.
