COMMUNICATED
PROTESTING MEETING
New Britain Herald

Editor, New Britain Herald:
 As an ex-service man, who fought on the other side during the late world war, protest against the un- American stand of German -Ameri- cans here in New Britain. They are to have mass meeting Sunday night, at Turner hall, in protest against former chief executive of our city on the basis that he was radical Am erican during the war. will not go into details, but I will say that what ever the man did, was by orders ls- sued from Washington and If any man of any nationality or creed be haved like true American he would not have any grievance against any one for what he did during the war, providing it was for the best Of the country and nation thousands were fighting for across,
 l appeal to all ey-servicemen to at tend this meeting tomorrow night and see that America and American ideals are held sacred and that 100 per cent. Americanism is the topic Of con- versation,
 Yours for unity,

From time mmemofial aspirants for office have challenged their rivals to a test before Il public jury and Il is probable that in very few cases has the mind of the Jury been hwayed from it's previous opinion. The latest example of such challenge ii offered by MT. Quigcy. who has invited MayoW Curtis to stand on the same platform with him and debate Inc merits of the issues now before the people in the mayoralty' contest al- though, If the truth be tod, the is- sues, 1t they exist, are very obscure
 A debate of this nature has very little influence on the ultimate result at the polls There are the two gem tlcmen who engage in the discussion seated on the platform with the fla miliar pitcher of ice water rnd glass on the table. Out In the aE.."nce hit hundreds who compose the jury. Be- fore tho debate opens each oNc is con vinced that he knows just waich of the debatcrs is in the right and all the cloqucncc at the command of the other candidate will not change that opinion. lie goes to the depate not prepared to sit with unbiased, open mind to hear the issues explained. He goes there certain that his favorite will prove to be the superior as dis putant and prepared to applaud when telling point is made or to laugh when his man utters merry quip at the expense of the other fellow. When the debate is ended he leaves the hall confident that his man exposed the shallowness of the other candidate.
 If men could change their natures and listen to public questions being eXpounded without allowing their per sonal or political preferences to warp their judgment public debates would have real value. In America, how ever, particularly in small communi- ties, a political discussion between rival candidates is regarded more or less in the light of two-ring circus. It is an indoor sport, with the candi- dates furnishing the entertainment
 Friends of Mayor Curtis believe that he will decline to be drawn into q debate with Mf. Quigley, because, being on the defensive, he would be at disadvantage. MT. Quigley has

IDEAL MADE REAL.

Plans formerly considered theor- etical are being made practical every day. Inventions which once were con- sidered impracticable are made use of with little thought of how useless they were considered in the past.
 The suggestion, therefore, of an en- tirely different attitude in city politi- cal affairs, is not hopeless of fulfil ment.
 The feeling between factions within a party is often more bitter than in ter-party feeling. Yet the two prom inent candidates for the Democratic nomination for the mayoralty have pledged mutual support in the elec- tion if defeated for the nomination. Moreover they have pledged the sup port of their followers to the success full candidate for the nomination. Practically, therefore, the democratic party factions are bound to support the party candidate. The party is greater than either faction.
 The Democratic and Republican candidates for nomination for the mayoralty have not pledged to the successful candidate of the other party their support in the govern ment Of the city, after election. Well might they do so, Well might the Democrats and Republicans, follow CTS of the different party candidates, pledge their support to the man who will become mayor, Criticism, when honest and constructive, is valuable. Every administration needs criticism of this sort, Criticism and refusal to co operate with the administration in power, based merely on party reasons, is never justified, It would be splen- did thing for the city, which is bigger than either party just as either party is bigger than any faction within it, if people of the city would pledge, mentally at least, full support of and with the next city ad- minstration, n"

 There is great danger Of running the power of a chiid's mind py ln- sistence on too long and intense study.

 Men in the west who depend on the soil for their living tried to upset eco- homie laws when markets began to fall and they threatened to hoanl their harvosts, But they soon thought better of their decision and sold what they had at the price then existing.

BOOSTS IN
INDUSTRY ARE
CONTEMpL ATED
Increases May Be Necessary to
Take Care Of Necessary
Manufacturing Expansion.
By ]. c. ROYLE.

Copyright, 1922. by The Argus.)
New York, N. Y, Oct, 9.-Ex-
panding production schedules to-
day are being balanced against the
possible necessity of further wage
increases in the deliberations Of
industrial executives in every sec
ton of the country.
Reports from authentic sources
show plainly that there is a coun-
try-wide impetus toward expan-
sion in nearly every basic indus
try. With few exceptions mines,
mills and factories are short of
workers to maintain present out
put.
The possibility of further ad-
vances in some of the larger in
dustrial plants is fully recognized
but the producers in most instanc-
es have determined to make some
final effort looking toward relief
from labor shortage from the COM
mittee on immigration offices be-
fore taking definite action to fill
the gaps in their payrolls by COM
petitive bidding.
Won't Solve Problem.
! Many manufacturers said today
that wage advances would not
solve the problem as the general
shortage still would exist no mat
ter if some industries filled their
immediate needs at the expense of
Others Manufacturers are most
unwilling to check expansion OF
production and are exceedingly an
xious to maintain full working
forces, for they realize that the
man who has no job is no buyer
and that demand must expand as
well as production to insure real
prosperity.
The shortage of labor exists in
the ranks of the unskilled as well
as skilled workers and applies to
women as well as men. Unframed
and unskilled labor at fifty cents
an hour is in demand in practic.
ally every section. Women who "gc
out by the day" to clean. sweep
scrub and wash readily command
so cents an hour in eastern cities
They are in continual demand anG
in scant supply. In this city Fin.
nish women, recently landed, form
the main source of supply for such
work and many of these canno'
speak English.
Manufacturers stated emphatic
ally today that removal of some q
the immigration restrictions Of
fered the only satisfactory solution
Inquiries to manufacturers il
widely separated sections indicat
ed today their plans for the mex
three months provide for increase:

Washing Won't Rid
Head OF Dandruf

The only sure way to get rid OF
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this. get
about four ounces of ordinary
LIQUID arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
Do this tonight. and by morning,
most if not all. Of your dandruff
will be gone. and three or four
more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruff you may
have
You will find. too. that all itch
ing and digging OF the scalp will
stop at once, and your hair will be
fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and
soft, and look and feel hundred
times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-(Adv.)
