PROFITEERING LANDLORDS.

There are profteering landlords Most of the landlords are not prof. iteers. But, as a rule, rents are toe high. The suggestion of Mayor Pao- nessa, indicating that official cogni- zance of a boosting of rents" on any certain piece of property where rents have been raised without apparent reason will be taken, with a resulting increase in the assessment of such property, Is nothing more nor less than a placing emphasis on the neces- sity of keeping close track of the returns on property in order that an equitable assessment may be made when the time comes for such assess ment
 This matter was urged in The Her aid some months ago when the wis., dom of continuing the advisory board to aid the assessors was put forward. It was then stated that it would be well to have such board possess char acteristics of permanence in order that the changes in the value of prop critics might be noted and those familiar with such changing values be retained as advisors. landlord who increases his rent must if he claims to raise it in accordance with justice, insist to his tenant that the value of the property has gone up. It would place him in most embar- rassing position were he compelled to assert to the assessors, subsequently, in order to gain a lower assessment. that such property had not increased in value. -,
 There should be no attempt by the administration to threaten an in- crease in assessment on property of any one individual where complaint has been made that such individual is profteering in rent. The Mayors office is too busy place to become the office of a personal attorney for every person who bas complaint to
New Britain herald., 1922-10-16

make The office would be deluged with such complaints, many of which would be justified, perhaps, and there would be cry of discrimination If thc Mayor did not make efforts in every case to have the landlord noti- fled that the city had taken notice of his alleged unfair action. It must be remembered also that in every dispute of every sort there are two sides to a question. The office of the Mayor cannot be turned into court for the settlement of these disputes.
 II is we'll however, that the matter has been called to the attention Of landlords and tenants. It would be well to have it understood that If tenants will notify the assessors of what they consider unjust increases in their rents, those assessors will make a note of it and consider the facts in connection with their next assessment of the property.

JUSTICE FOR NEWsDEALERs

Most people are sorry school chil- good. Most people are sorry that criminals commit murder. Newsdeal- CTS should no more be prosecuted be- cause magazines said to be Unfit for school children find their way into children's hands than dealers in fire arms should be prosecuted because weapons find their way into crim-
 inals' hands.
 Most people deplore the trend of
 many of the present day magazines
 They are not fit for anyone to read,
 it is alleged. Their stories do not elevate. Perhaps not. Yet they are what the people demand and the
 newsdealers, being in that business, sell what the people want. The news
 dealers are no more in the business of elevating the morals of the com munity and educating them to a proper appreciation of good literature than are merchants who sell women S dresses in the business of educating women in the matter of modesty.
 The United States regulates what shall pass through the mails and what shall not If the United States passes certain magazines through the mails a newsletter Is not presumed to question it. He should not be re- quired to read every story in every magazine he sells any more than a merchant should be required to test every piece of cloth he sells to see If 1t comes up to presentations. An other question would be raised if newsdealers went to the trouble of securing reading matter, not allowed In the mails, from other sources and knowingly sell obscene literature to school children. AS matters stand today, however, there are many arti cles properly sold which would injure some people. Criminal prosecution of the seller, however, is not just if there is use for the article or if the selling of it is not illegal. The rem edy lies in other measures. In the matter, of the children it lies primar- lily, of course, in the hands of the parents of the children. Paternal government, which tries to take the place Of the parent, is usually a fail ure whether the ward of the paternal government be child or adult.

not of the labor party will combine against that party and continue him in power, He may see, also, some support from the labor party by the clements not thoroughly in accord with the radical thought which dom- mates it. He saw the wisdom, at any rate, of not further antagomzing the labor party, Austen Chamberlain had said quite enough on that point In his speech at Birmingham the day before.
 The significant portion of the speech, which held up for the timid to gaze upon some of the perplexing matters which England has to face, was when he said; II shall watch many things. l shall watch to see how we are to forgive Germany her separations and yet make France love us more than ever. I shall watch to see how we are to pay the United States all we owe her and for give every other country all they owe us"
 Lloyd George is pretty confident that the conservative liberals of Eng land will not allow him to retire and watch these things. They will CO., operate to see that he, not someone else, directs action regarding them

HOSPITAL AND HOTEL.

The campaign to secure sunscrip
 tions to the stock in the proposed
 new hotel is about over, There IS at this moment as far as the nuoll' ,s informed some question as te whether or not the full amount WI
 have been subscribed. Next Saturday the cornerstone of the new hosplta
 will be laid. When the campaign tc raise funds for that institution was well along, long before the end, there was little question but that it would be success.
 New Britain had to have that hos pital. The need for the hotel IS great. The one was matter or almost life and death. The other IS a matter of increased prosperity Every person in this city was Vltally interested in the hospital. Securing 1t meant that all would feel safer, more assured of care in case Of sick ness or accident. The response to the appeal for funds was general; Individuals gave sometimes beyond what they could well afford There was a reason for it. It was per fectly proper to show those in very moderate means that the hospital would be of great value to them.
 Every person in the city is inter ested in having the new hotel But those most vitally interested are not the poor people or those in very mod crate means. The merchant, the manufacturer the man or woman who wants his home city to have hotel worthy of 1t where their visit ors, business or social, may stop or where they may entertain them-the great bulk of the money for the new hotel should come from this class. They should subscribe; they cannot afford not to subscribe in an invest ment from which their greatest divi- dends will not be in so much actual cash which they can count, but rather in increased business from an in- creased transient trade, increased value of their own property, better means of entertainment for those coming to this city in whom they are interested in business or social way, and in the strengthening of their investment in 9 city gaining, through the new hotel, greater prestige.
 To put the matter bluntly the wealthy people of the city, the people who have made solid investment in business and the people who have something to invest to increase their own business are the ones who should see to it that the hotel campaign is success They know it and those back of the hotel campaign know it. If the campaign is not success the wage worker, the salaried man or woman should not be blamed.

getting what apples he wanted at
these prices. Cash buyers are not
as plentiful as they have been in the
past two or three years. Most of the
growers are consigning their crops
to the local shippers who are re-

at good prices. The apple harvest
ing is in full blast this week and
with continuation of good weather
the bulk OF the crop will be gathered

A load of hay being driven on the
highway near Fruitland last Satur-
day, while the driver of the load was
not to blame, caused quite an auto
accident. August Senkbeil was on

load and turned out to pass, while
at the very same time, Vergie Lemon,
young rancher living in that COM
munity, with brand new Ford,
turned out in meeting the load, the
hay obstructing the view of both
drivers.
Fortunately neither was driving at
a very high speed, but sufficient 20
cause considerable damage to both
cars, the Ford suffered the greatest
injury. Neither of the drivers were
hurt.
