VICTIMS OF MAD DOG
TAKING PASTEUR TREATMENT

The owner of the rabid dog. of the po-
lice dog breed, that ran through the
towns of Stonington, Groton and Led
yard is unknown, says the state board
of health: Over dozen dogs were bitten
by the rabid animal. The animal was
killed and the head sent to the state
department of health laboratory at New
Haven and there the brain showed the
presence of "negri bodies" confirming the
clinical diagnosis.
Four persons were bitten by the rabid
dog, and all are taking the "PasteuI
treatment" to prevent their developing

the key word. BY restraining tgs al

SCHOOL BUILDING NEEDS
BEFORE BUSINESS MEN

The town school committee met with
the educational committee of the Nor
wich Chamber of Commerce in the cham
Der rooms on Tuesday evening for the
consideration of the building program.
The meeting was of short duration and
after the conference the school commit
tee transacted routine business and ad-
joufned.
Secretary r. j. Kelly Of the school
board said Tuesday evening that there
was nothing to report on the meeting, as
the plans discussed were simply prelim-
mary and nothing definite had been de-
cided upon. 1t is possible within a short
time that the program will be presented
for discussion at an open meeting. There
Is no doubt in the minds of the school
committee and the members Of the edu-
cational committee of the Chamber OF
Commerce that something must be done
to relieve the congestion in the schools
and these two bodies are workin gin con-
junction to find some means by which the
present conditions can be alleviated.

heavy republic, pared down almost to Vienna

Whether his view Of the case Is accepted
or not Is not of consequence in the present
crisis. The situation calls for practical assist
ance, rather than moral lectures or diatribes
on the wickedness Of diplomats. Austria Is
bankrupt, starving, without means Of either
economic or national subsistence. Her re-
quest that her affairs be taken over by the
Reparations Commission poses a question In
realities.
Sir William Goode proposes that assist
ance be given with part Of the f00,Np 900
recommended by the British section of the
commission. The only alternatives, as he
sees the matter, are urion with Germany or
bolshevism, espoused because Of sheer help
lessness and despair.
The Englisbman considers the loan as
economic insurance for the benefit not merely
Of Austria but OF civilization as a whole.
Distssteful as the great new expenditure may
be, there would appear to be no other toler-
able remedy.
The crisis calls for prompt, practical
treatment. Raking up the past to show why
the patient is Ill is futile.

WHAT HAPPENED AT MINGo

ENEDERAL troops are being withdrawn
i from Mngo, w. Va. That information
will mean little to most people because in the
rush of events a great deal of news from
hingo that should have been printed on the
'ront pages was forced into the background.
But no one who wished to prove for him
self the justice OF criticism aimed BY Mr..
Hoover, Senator Calder and others at ac-
tepted methods of coal production and dis
;ribution would have to so farther than that
srubby little town.
At Mingo the mines have been closed since
last summer, while miners and operators
alike disrcgarded civil laws and fought as
bitterly and amlessly as Mexicans. Ten men
at least were killed in battles between hired
strike breakers and miners before the troops
we're called in. Now, though the fight Is still
on, the civil authorities are going to make
smother attempt to restore order. They will
not try to open the mines.
The disagrecments between the mine
owners and the miners at Mingo and in the
neighboring sections OF the state could have
been settled in an hour by any commission
of able and honest men who were willing to
base their Judgment on common sense and u
Just consideration Of common rights

HOW JOHN BREAKS JAIL

NTHERE are tho hcadwaters of the river Of
w strong drink that is overhowing its
banks and irrigating the country? BY what
processes il 10 much COntraband unloosed?
These are technical questions which hitherto
have bafticd every one not in the confidence
OF experts. Read the newspapers nowadays,
however, and light will dawn upon YOU
IL was supposed when the dry law was
written that the raising Of barriradrs and the
drawing up Of stiff codes would b. adequate
TO keep John either behind the bars or well
within prison bounds. No provision was
made to deal with the problem of stolen"
hooch. llooch stolen vanished as a factor in
the enforcement plan. 1t could not be taxed
since it could not be traced. No one could
be blamed for its Disappearance from the
place whore it was stored. II was something
for which owners could not be held respon-
sibc.
/ Is that why there are so many amazing
stories current of vast quantities of liquor
stolen in broad daylight and why So ,0O0, 900
worth of whisky was taken by robbers from
a Chicago warehouse while the federal guards
were inside playing poker? 1t is easy to
steal isn't it. If the owner of the goods is the
sort of person who helps you to load your
pockets or your wagon and then shakes hands
with you and wishes you good luck on your
y travels?

work suffering from the effects Of a debauch
was quickly displaced by a man who had oil

LIGHT SAVING A STATE SUBJECT

TT IS a satisfaction that City Council at
i last displays some understanding of its
jurisdiction over the subject of daylight
saving.
Last spring an ordinance calling for ad-
vancement of the summer clock was airily
vhisked through the local legislative body
and there seemed chance of enforcement
until attention was called in these columns to
the fact that a state law prescribed the es
tablishment Of eastern standard time. The
ordinance was therefore invalid.
Whatever the merits or demerits of day
light saving, the Council has at last ap-
preached the question nationally. A resolu-
tion has been adopted requesting the As
sembly at Harrisburg to cooperate with
other states in devis!ng a uniform, econom.
ical time schedule for the long days
The arrangement last year was the mega
ton of system and resulted in such absurd
tiles as a one hour journey from Philadel-
phia to New York and three hour return
trip. The Legislature can. Of course, repeal
the present law If 1t wishes and if emphatic
popular sentiment in favor Of daylight saving
should be manifested.

SOUND REINFORCEMENT

IF THERE Is as much reality as optimism
L in the report from Washington that the
House reapportionment bill has rough road
to travel a good many politicians throughout
the land will be spared the agonies Of a
heart breaking occupation.
In Pennsylvania this is particularly true,
The subtle complexities of congressional re :
apportionment in this state constitute the
most formidable obstacles in the way of
clean cut progressive legislation by the As
sembly in Harrisburg. The promise of a
speedy session this year is shadowed by pros
poets of the pickering and factional quarrels
which reapportonment invariably brings
forth.
At Washington it is asserted that sufficient
votes are available to defeat the present re-
apportionment bill. increasing the House
membership from 435 to 4S3, and that there
is q respectable chance of passing a sub
stitute measure increasing the ratio on which
representation is based.
The federal constitution could be complied
with by adopting plan increasing the mem
bership of eleven states and reducing that of
eight states. The House total would then
remain what it is now. Sooner or later
something Of the sort will have to be done. il
only because Of the physical limitations of
the House chamber.
OF course, the states with decreased rep
resentation would object. If the new plan
is actually proposed some of the votes now
said to be lined up for it will probably
vanish.
None the less, the principle involved Is
sensible. and in this commonwealth the relief
which the public would experience on find :
ing the reapportionment fight taken out of the
State Legislature would be profound.
