ACCIDENTS AND WAR.

II is startling to read that moro
lives were lost in Connecticut acct
dents during the Is months that the
United states participated in the war
:han the total of Connecticut soldiers
who were killed in action or other
wise met their deaths in the service.
This statement is based by statis-
tics of the Motor Vehicle and Health
Departments.
All of the accidents referred to
ware not. of course, ones in which
motor vehicles were concerned. For
instance of the Connecticut men in
;1e service. 1895 died. while 2,039
persons were victims of fatal acct
dents here. and motor vehicle acct
dents were, responsible for but 3S3 of
these deaths.
In the United States in 1919 there
were about $4,000 persons accidental
~ killed: $4,000 killed in industry:
$4,000 were killed on the streets. in
homes. Only 10000 of these were
killed as the results Of automobile ac-
cidents, which Is the largest number
that may be attributed to any one
cause.
Connecticut does not stand alone

LEAVE 1T TO CONFERENCE.

Tho action of he Commission on
Disarmament of the Council of the
League of Nations has taken a stand
quite different from the rumored
action OF n group in Congress, which
Is said to plan a reduction to 100000
OF the army while the Conference on
Limitation of Armaments Conference
Is In session.
It's final report declares that the
Washington Conference may better
deal with the question of naval dis
armament than the League and that
II can DO more effectively secured By
common agreement among the great
powers. The policy of land arma-
nents. II Is said, will be treated in the
Same way.
There Is no question but that the
Conference would have been unneces-
rary. and the whole matter settled
by the League had we been included
I'm its mem bership. A. matters stand,
however, 1t In believed the Commits
sion of the League has shown rare
wisdom I'm the stand 1t has taken.
Apropos of the subject 1t is said
that Lloyd George will not be able to
attend the conference owing TO press
ing alters at home. The unemploy-
nent question. and the Irish affairs,
would seem TO keep him at home.
Probably. in England, few would care
q bsgF Fp do hIs
period at this time. and certainly 1t
may be seen readily that he himself
considers those affairs, there pressing
now. of more Importance than a
lengthy discussion here of a problem
that cannot be absolutely settled at
Washington. but of which the Wash
ington Conference will be the main
spring TO start working commissions
AID Investigations of all sorts.
The political situation in England
differs much from the conditions
here. No one antagonistic to the gov
ernment may be sent. and yet a man
high in authority must come. The
men i'm this country. in such high
places, are supposed all TO he friendly

that we had n larger field from which
To pick. For instance IL is said that
Lord Grey Is expected to speak in the
next few weeks attacking the Lloyd
George administration.

NIGHT SCHOOLS.

Glasses I'm speaking. reading and
writing the English language. arith-
metlc, American history and American
citizenship are held at the night
schools from 7:30 TO 9:3o p. m. on
Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday of
each week.
These subjects are mentioned for a
special purpose. 1t is quite probable
that those for whom these studies are
arranged do not read the papers to
great degree. one OF the duties de-
volving upon every man and woma
who reads and who comes in contact
with those deficient in these subjects
should make II n point to have them
understand that here is n chance for
them to 1et.rn these things, knowl-
edge of which will help them make
a success of life.
The fact that many OF the foreign
born have prospered without these ad-
vantages does not detract from the
fact that the knowledge, easily gained
~ persistent study is INDUCED in,
would have helped them still more.
Attention should be drawn to the
fact that while there is money to be
made in the same manner money has
been made always. by labor of hands.
nevertheless there has never yet been
n time when education will count for
as much as II will i'm the coming years.
Tho attendance Mt the opening of
these schools last night was lower
than IL was last year. If there is as
much unemployment as there seems
TO be. there will be little excuse for
those who arc not busy at night, to
take advantage of these schools.
Many profit mentally by the hours
that come from having no work.
So this editorial Is directed not to
those who need to attend these schools
primarily, but to the persons who do
read. who do realize what IL would
mean to fnave the night schools crowd
ed to the doors, and what the ignorant
are losing in falling to study.
1t Is for every person interested in
the welfare OF others. to tell the ig-
norant about our night schools.

in this particular. There were about
10000 fatal accidents in this country
while the war was in progress, while
about $1,000 of our soldiers lost their
lives But such statistics go to show
the needless loss of life as contrasted
with that which, possibly, may be
considered necessary.
Certainly such facts as these ought
