than unpleasant to dwell upon this city, but comment upon it seems ab- solutely necessary.
 We may pride ourselves upon the general good health prevalent in New Britain. Grown men and women, even young boys and girls. do not suffer from as many fatal maladies as obtain throughout the state generally.
 But this fact makes the high death rate among babies all the more awful.
 Practically 100 out of every 1000 babies die.
 That the percentage is not greater is due not only to our doctors, but to the nurses of the city.
 There are ten of them, from the Visiting Nurse Association, under the City Health Department, and one School Nurse.
 To every man and woman who has the welfare of the little ones at heart; to everyone who shudders to think of the number of babies who are taken. must come the impulse to do all that is possible to correct this deplorable state of affairs.
 The situation is here presented in order that, when any movement for the preservation of the lives of babies needs help, the people may know just how emphaticsIly tht help is needed.

MORE HONOR FOR US.

Tho Council of tho League of Ma tlons has invited four Americans to propose four persons. no moro than two of whom shall be Americans. as candidates for election as judges of tho International Court of Justice. The League Assembly and Council will elect the Judges. It is said that the Americans named will certainly be chosen.
 Elihu Root. ono of tho men to whom
 the invitation has come, took an ac- tive part in tho formation Of this In- ternationaI Court. Upon 1t he be- neves would rest much of tho burden of settling world affairs, without re- course to war. In it he must believe thoroughly.
 But it Is extremely doubtful if he accepts tho invitation to assist in nam ing four of the judges. It is to be be- lievcd that ho would not object to be- coming a member of that court. and it is believed that he will do so.
 Nominations of Americans do not have to como from tho four men asked to tako this action by the League Council. MT. Root. or any other American. might be nominated by members of tho Hague Arbitration Tribunal other than tho Americans to whom thls invitation has come. 1t is rather certain that Americans will be nominated for this court. If this is dono there might be seen in such action the desire 10 have on the court disinterested persons-persons from a country which. under present conditions. would not be likely to be parties to questions that might come before 1t.
 Thero might also bo seen the de hire to honor Americans in tho hope that this would prove another in- nuence which would draw this country into tho closer association with the nations of Europe. so desired on the other side of tho water.
 But. 1t is submitted. there can be no doubt but that there would come be- fore tho court. directly or indirectly. matters in which this country is in- | torested: matters which affect this country's rights. Thus 1t Is more like l H to bo tho desire to let this country pee the recognition which the Council of the League gives to 1t, which has prompted this invitation. than any other motive.

FLAG NOT SALUTED
Citizen Thinks Policemen Also, Should
 Pay Tribute to Colors. Editor, New Britain Herald, City.

Dear Sir:
 It was with interest I read the Observers remarks, in Saturdays "Herald', regarding lack of respect for the Flag of United States, preva- lent among some members of the crowd along the street, while the military funeral of Friday was passing.
 You are to be complimented for bringing this to the attention of the public, but why pick on the poor foreigner and let the police depart ment go uncalled? Last Fridays procession passed, to my knowledge, five policemen, on duty, and not a single one saluted the flag.
 There is an excuse for the for eigners, but there is no excuse for these servants of the public.

URGES LEGION
SERVICE IN
SHAPING POLICY
oscar z. Carlstrom, Spanish War
Vets Chief. Greets Legion
Convention.

Oscar E. CarIstrom of Aledo,
ommander-in-chief OF the United
states Spanish War Veterans, ad-
dressing the national convention Of
the American Legion in Kansas
City today, urged the modification
of the political clause in the
legion's constitution Captain Carl
strom brought greetings from his
organization, and spoke as fol-
lows:
THE patriotism which gave SER
vice in war can be translated into
a patriotism of service in time of
peace, and under our form of gov
eminent can only be expressed by
participating in the shaping of pub
lie policies and the choosing of
men charged with the duty of car
rying out those policies" he began
This means participation in pol
itics, not necessarily partisan and
indeed under no circumstances
commercialized politics.
What America and her states
need today as much as any one
thing is n-commer poll
tics-politics based upon integrity
and sincerity of service to the
state. What body of men and
women can be looked to with great
er confidence to lead and strength
en- such a movement than the ser
vice men and women?
Need New Policy.
Had the American Legion and
kindred service organizations de-
termined and aggressive policy
looking to the support in a united
way of those men who would sup
mort aud give decent consideration
to their interests, there might not
now be the lack of adjustment
economically that exists between
the condition OF the service men
and those who fattened by uncon-
scionable profits and contract set
Elements during and after the war
Sooner or later it must and will
come. Let US act now"
The legion's constitution pro-
hibits any one who holds or is
seeking a salaried elective public
office to hold Office in the legion
or any department or post thereof.
Urges Cooperation.
As representing the United Span
ish War Veterans, Commander-in-
Chief Carlstrom urged complete
cooperation between all veteran
organizations.
The Spanish War Veterans ten
der this cooperation and ask the
American Legion for it he said.
Many men hold membership in
both organizations.

PORTABLE BUILDINGS
WILL meet GARFIELD
JUNIOR HIGH NEEDS

Two portable buildings Of two rooms
each, to be ereted on the vacant lots
adjoining the Garfield junior high
school, are to be used beginning with
the fall school term, instead OF the
Garfield annex, located at North
Twelfth and B streets.
For two years and half the Gar
field annex, formerly the tabernacle
for the Central Christian church, has
been used by the Garfield boys. 1t
has housed the machine shop, bench
room, printing department and boys
gymnasium.
The erection of the two portable
buildings will take place as soon as
they arrive 1t is pointed out that
the placing of the departments former
ly housed in the Garfield annex, in
the portable buildings adjoining the
school will facilitate the work. Very
little time will need be lost in stu
dents going from one period of work
to another.
Use of the temporary school build
ings probably will be needed until the
erection of the east side junior high
school. Whether or not they will be
needed after the building of the east
side junior high school is problem,
atical.
