DISCUSS STATE AID
 FOR LOCAL WIDOWS
Social Workers Conference Meets --Dr. Henry Tells Of Hospital

Between IS and 20 members of the New Britain Social Workers confer ence attended the monthly supper and meeting of the organization at the Y. w. c. A., cafeteria last eve ming. Talks on the state aid for widows were given by Mrs. Emily Mercer, who has charge of this work in New Haven, J. B. Dawson, of the Associated Charities. also of New Ha- Richard w. Ellis. and Field Agent Charles J. Parsons of the state de partment at Hartford, and by Charity Superintendent William Cowlishaw, and Probation Officer F. C. Connol- ly. of this city. Mr. Connolly is the local agent for this. fund. Must Tell Resources.
 The sense of the talks was to the effect that agents of the fund could work better if they had women as- sistants or if there were women agents. Mir. Gates emphasized the point that the state aid for widows fund is not a pension for widows, as many suppose. but simply case of aid, where aid is needed. He eX- plained how the law requires lineal relatives in this state to support needy members of the family where ever possible and told of severe pen altes where persons attempt to con- ceal their resources in order to evade this responsibility.
 Mir. CoWlishaw Speaks.
 MT. Gates proposes to submit tc the next session of legislature a new bill correcting a number of unsatis factory features of the present law Mr. Cowlishaw told of the operations of the charity department, it's man. phases and problems and of th' troubles he had with the Spaniards He closed with the advice that in al cases city charity departments should be kept out of politics.
 Standardizins Hospitals
 Dr. J. G. Henry, of the New Brit ain hospital gave talk on standard old fashioned haphazardly operateo hospital, run for the sake of exploit ing the patient was rapidly passing away and that there were few if any such institutions now in the country He told of the methods nscd to bring the local hospital up to it's presen high standard of efficiency.
 Advocates Cooper atiOn
 Dr. Henry stated that the local in stitution plans to maintain it's recort at the highest standard of efficienc, and intimated that it would continu its present progressive spirit. He of l fered the resources of the hospital t the social workers of the city when ever advisable and said that he il turn would be glad to avail himsel of the services of the social workers
 A number of questions were asked the speakers by the members. In the absence of Marshall R. Cook president of the conference, who suffering with an attack of neuriti following his recent siege of grip, tn vice-president presided.

.UKRAIN|A DESIRES
 INDPT. REPUBLIC
Insists Country Is Able to Con-
 duct Own Foreign Business

Moscow, March 1.-The Ukraine has scored a diplomatic victory over the Russian Soviet government which made it necessary for the American Relief Administration to sign separ- ate agreement with the Ukraine be- fore 1t could legally open food draft warehouses and general relief work In that southern republic.
 American workers were distribut- ing food packages at Kiev, Odessa and Kharkov for some time without any agreement other than that enter ed into with the Moscow government.
 The Ukraine insisted that it was an |indepedent republic. fully competent to conduct relations with foreign
 powers and entitled to be dealt with as an autonomous nation wholly free from Moscow control. President Ra- kovsky, of Ukrainia, recently confer red in Moscow with American Relief
 Administration officials and made his position clear.
 Wants Loan Also
 The Ukraine wanted food packages and relief from America but it wanted to sign agreements with the Ameri- cans just as the Moscow government did. Furthermore it wants to ne gotiate with Americans for loan to relieve its economic distress.
 As the American Relief Admins tration is in no sense a diplomatic or official organization, its signature of a separate agreement with the lfk- raine was not regarded as an official recognition of the Ukranian govern ment although there seems 10 be d general impression in Russia that the American relief organization is the |forerunner of diplomatic relations.
 The Ukraine seems 10 be to the Soviet federated republic of Russia what Bavaria is to the German rerub- lie and there is the same delicacy in Moscow about handling the Ukraine lthat Berlin shows in dealing with the Munich government. Ukraine is the granary of European Russia, il:st as Bavaria is the granary of the German federation. The Ukraine has two very Girtatious neighbors in Poland and Rumania. If also has valua ble assets in Odessa, Nikolaeff and other ice free ports.
 All in all Moscow is facing many of |the interesting problems in federation which the United States confronted after it cut loose from England and found it necessary to harmonize the interests of it's varied states.

H. R. BOARDMAN
 AT LAST WINS Has Been Flirting With Prize
 for a Week

The poems submitted for considera- tion today were better than usual and more than usual, due to the untiring efforts of the authors. That consist ency is the very keynote of an au thor's success. Variety. too, has been noted by the judge. He has received poetry about junk, prohibition, and whatnots. He notes with great en- thusiasm that romance seems to frisk it's way through many of the verselets and some of them may be just little to spicy to print. That's matter of debate, however, and there is much too spicy to print. That's matter of warp and wool can be given.
 Oh! yes, ME. H. B. Boardman is to- days lucky man. The judge feels like deducting 13c for contempt of court for the good natured twitting which is contained therein, for there is a di- rect reflection on the judges ability

Shoes That Add
 10 -Four Vitality

Shoes that bind and distort the feet are source of constant irritation. They drain your nervous energy, dis tract your attention and lessen your ability to concentrate and to work. Such shoes are drawback to health and success. If you would enjoy the best that life has to offer of buoyant strength and achievement, change to the comfortable, helpful Cantilever Shoe.
 ! It is well built on last that con- formyt to the contour of the foot. With the natural inner sole line, the toes point straight ahead and are comfort able; share of the weight of the body falls easily on the ball of the foot
 The wel-set heel encourages good posture, which in turn encourages good health.
 The shank of a Cantilever Shoe is drawn up, by lacing the shoe. to fit the instep and provide restful sup port. And it FLEXEs WITH THE FOOT. It does not bind the muscles and impede circulation as rigid sole does. It strengthens the muscles by allowing them freedom to exercise. 1 thus preventing or correcting weak arches.
