WISDOM OF FORESIGHT

The wisdom of the provision of the city clerk the right and making it his duty to refuse to accept for ad proposing alterations in the budget of the common council, has been shown signer that he and others expected to sec the petition before it went to of the blank pieces of paper alleged to have been passed around before that he did not intend to approve several of the cuts as the petition was the alleged petition presented to the city clerk did not represent the de- to do. The mathematical error, al- legged to have been found, whereby
 
 900 according to the alleged petition, shows how absolutely impossible it would be to carry out the terms of the refused budget according to it's terms were it to be adopted. . a Practical men, looking for prompt action, dislike unnecessary red tape.' A certain amount of red tape,' how ever, is not only wise but absolutely necessary. It would seem to be need less to advise people never to attach their names to blank pieces of paper, to be filled in later. Whole fortunes might be swept away by such action. Such action at least often makes the signcrs look ridiculous.

the point by a Senator of the United states that Japan might still insist on ''speeial interests in China under the lansing-lshii agreement in spite of .hor adoption of the subsequent Four Power treaty, might do some harm,
 A woman was about to leave her home temporarily, She turned to her three children who were to be left alone. Now. children" she said, don't put bcdns fin your noses" The children had never thought of doing such q thing, but the suggestion rais- cd the thought of fine, new game, So, of course, they had 10 try 1t while the mother was away, Upon her re- turn she found three much distressed children, Some of the beans had stuck"
 Perhaps Senator Borah's request and discussion will do "no harm" But at least ii will not help in the smooth working out of the provisions of the treaty if and when it is adopted, and 1t is quite likely to suggest to the Japanese that the Senate of the United States is not clear in it's own mind as to something that should be plain to every mind at all familiar with international law.

THE AMERICAS

Familiarity does not always breed contempt. The importance of expand ing facilities of travel between North and South America was emphasized the other day by Ambassador Lebre- ton, of Argentina. It would promote their natural interests 'politically, so- cially and economically" he declared.
 There may be no questioning the truth of the assertion. The homely illustration of the telephone and the local merchant, especially in the larg CT cities, illustrates the point The frequent, easy communication be- tween customer and merchant, possi- bly, by the use of the telephone, makes for better business and greater satis- faction and more than added conven- fence comes with it. A better under standing on the part of the merchant of the wants of his customer and more thorough appreciation by the customer of the stock and attitude of the merchant make for better busi- ness. Proximity, close connection be- tween customer and market, bring not only added convenience but great Ter practical realization of the possi- bilities of business intercourse.
 As the telephone abolishes the handicaps of distance so better travel facilities do the same thing in a less degree in some ways, in a greater de- gree in others.
 That the trade possibilities between Ethe Americas are scarcely realized is equally truc Those who have been to the Southern country are en- thusiastic in this regard. Of course better travel facilities would bring first realization of those possibilities and then the turning of them into realities The statement of the Am bassador contains much that is of cs- sentially practical value.

COMMUNITY DRIVE.

Pledges for the payment of what should be considered "fixed charge" will be sought the last of this month. The drive of the United Community Corporation, which handles the money for the various welfare, semi educational organizations in the city, will be begun March 27 and will con- tinue until April 1. The sum of s5S,- GOO is to be sought.
 The sum mst be raised; it will be raised. Especially this year is the money needed, and this year especial ly those able to give should give free ly, making the difficult work of the collectors and solicitors as easy as possible.
 And especially this year should the solicitors understand the situation of the people.
 No New Britain man or woman likes to ask for aid in making life happier. In the unemployment crisis it was shown by data obtained at the employment agency that people were 10th even to apply there for work. Not until forced to do so did many who were in danger of losing all they had gained in a life of hard work seek jobs through this agency.
 There are many in the city who need the help of the funds collected by the United Community Corpora tion. Many of such people have, in the past, given to this drive. This year they will ask to be relieved of insistent demands that they give to this cause. They should be relieved.
 For this reason those able to give should give more generously, and every man, woman and child who can spare anything should give, re- bembering that in his or her giving he or she is helping not only those whom the money will help directly, but also those others who arc unable, this year, to give as they have given in the past to help others.
 This contribution should be consid- cred an annual fixed charge It is mentioned thus early that those who can afford to give may make prepar- ation for willing action March 27.

THE OEFICF-THE MAN

No slur is intended to be cast upon any candidate for any office when one asks the question:: "l wonder 1T George Washington opened campaign headauarters." Nowadays all candi- dates, including the most worthy open campaign headquarters if they are lucky enough to have the means or if their supporters. raise the ncc- essary funds. That is to say practical ly all candidates do this. If they re- frain from doing so probably it is not because they disapprove of the prac- tce.
 But wondering whether or not George Washington, for instance, had campaign headquarters, there comes again the old phrase "Fhe office sought the man." Then one wonders If this phrase Is obsolete. And if it Is DO longer true statement of fact in any election, who is to blame?

 Possibly Senator Borah was honest in his assertion that it will do no harm to discuss this matter, even though it seems rather plain that the adoption of the Four Power treaty would make void any agreement pre- ceding 1t which is antagonistc to 1t. But t would seem that the raising of

DEMOCRATS HEAR
 MANY SPEAKERS
Many Prominent Jeiersonians Give Their Views on City Affairs

There were several speeches made at the meeting of the Hardware City Democratic club held last evening in the K of c. meeting hall on Main street, The meeting was one of the largest that has been held.
 Farley Hits Schools
 William Farley, who made his first appearance before the club spoke at length on the question confronting the city, namely the cutting of taxes through economy in the various de- partmcnts of the city government. He gave an illustration of the difference in the expenditures for schools be- tween Holyoke, Mass, and this city. He said that in the Massachusetts city, there was a much better school system than there Is here and it is conducted during the year for $200,- o00 less than the local system. When the fact becomes known that the pop ulation of Holyoke is larger than New Britain by 1000, it is evident that there is something wrong here or else too much money is being expended on tle schools, he said.
 Defends His stand
 F. S. McMahon defended his stand on the budget. He said that he in- tended to cut out surplus money, such as S27, ,000 taken from the school board appropriation, and not cut the pay of the firemen or the policemen, as was stated by many about the city. He was seconded by Martin Kelly
 Alderman A. NJ. Paonessa spoke On the city affairs and told how much he thought could be saved by cutting down expenditures in the board of public works. He said that there were many ways in which money could be saved in. the city by cutting out appropriations for things which were not necessarily vital to the in terests of the city.
 F.. o. 1<ilbourne and James O'Con nor spoke at length on the question of the school board appropriation, and Dr. Avitable gave his views on the questions of government confront ing the city today.
 An entertainment was furnished featuring Bob Spencer in a mono logue, Thomas Egan and the Hard- ware City quartette in vocal selec tions. A lunch was served and q smoker enjoyed.

Do all the available men seek oer- tain ohlec, and for that reason the people cannot look about for new man-and cannot bring about the condtion, therefore whore the oihee lid seek tho man? Or is the public too indifferent 10 make q search for the right man? Is it content to DICK out the best or the one the pubic considers the best, from those who have announced themselves as candl- didates and who have "opened cam paign Headquarters?
 Tho best man, the most ol'lcicnt man, Is usually bigger than the place he fills, be 1t night watchman or Pres ident of the United states. The best men, the most efficient men know their own ability without, necessari- ly, parading it. They, the best men, therefore, are 10th to seek position, realizing, humbly and modestly per- maps put none lhe less 'rulS' that ''''s are bigger than that position. They hate to enter q position where they will be limited by public misunder- standings of motives the handicapping misrepresentation which seek for ulterior motives where there are none. They prefer to be free to follow their ambitions independently, accountable to none if they get the results.
 It will be a fine day for the world when once again the office seeks the man, whose campaign headquart- ers' will be everywhere where intelli- gent people gather.

MENTAL PANIC.

There is. little question but that the recognized economic situation, dis agreeable and unfavorable as it has been, would have created a general corrgible optimsts, at first, then op- timists who must have some sem their optimism, and now optimists who are such merely because they are side. of things and give full credit to real facts. Months ago the incor- rigible optimist, the man who looked on the bright side of life despite everything and who sometimes foo- ishly refused to see danger ahead, had little to justify his position. Today any man has reason for optimism.
 Thus if it were not for the optim- ists there would be times when the country would suffer from mental panic, all progress would cease and, not progressing, the country would fall back to position whence it would take some time to get back to the place from which it had fallen, before a start to new things could be made.
 This would be the condition today, for instance, had funds not been pro- vided for the continuation of the transcontinental air mail service and the New York city pneumatic postal tube service. The House refused to provide for either of these services, but Senate committee members have agreed to include funds therefor in the annual postoffice appropriation bill.
 A start has been made in develop ing better and more rapid mail de- livery. Carrying of mail by ar through long distances and by tube over shorter distances is inevitable. This country cannot afford to allow mental panic to stop the develop ment of these things for any consid- erable period.
