THE COURT OF HONOR

Again comes the discussion con- corning the Court of Honor. l. Is to be hoped this will be the final one It is proper to bring it up again, now because the present makeshift should stand there no longer the constant reminder of how the tangible evi- dence of our memory of the dead, is forgotten. It was proper to bring the matter up for discussion now. It will be proper to bring it up just as long as those wooden shafts are allowed to stand, misrepresenting the perman- ence of the honor we give those who died In the war.
 Let this be the last discussion of the kind. Let the shafts and the arch be taken down. Let nothing take their places until. and unless, something enduring, fine, strong be erected to stand as long as anything placed any where by the hands of man will stand, to ndicate-only indicate-the depth of our feeling in regard to those whose memory is even thus poorly to be honored.
 Every discussion over the Court of Honor casts a smirch on the splendor of the thought of the service, the sacrifice of those men who fought and died. Better, far. to stand silent with uncovered head beside the grave of hero, than to prate poorly in mans clumsy words of deeds which no words may fittingly describe. Better far no visible Court of Honor. a thing of sand and wood which moth and rust shall corrupt-better far a beau tiful spot where man may feel in his soul the honor due their memory

The only one Of the three original complaints remaining as an obstacle to settlement, is, therefore accord ing to Jewell, the refusal of the rail roads to agree not to contract out shor work It Is submitted that mst of the roads have agreed to discontinue this practice. The situation, therefore, is that a strike vote was taken, a ma jority fayoring 1t based on the matters of complaint at that time. None of those matters of complaint remain, but in their place, there are new. faults found, There has been no vote on whether or not there should be a strike based on these new questions. The men who voted under one set of conditions have not had a chance to say whether or not they would vote for strike under this new set of con ditions.
 When 1t is remembered that the questions sent out to the men and which they were to answer were put in such complicated way that to vote against a strike was a very diffi- cult matter. 1t is not going too far to assert that majority of the men would not now vote for the strike since the matters then complained of are no longer the vital issues.
New Britain herald., 1922-07-24
HOW STRIKERS FEEL

Do the majority of those who voted it continued? Would the vote have been in favor of the strike if the questions submitted had been the questions which now prevent settle ment of the strike.
 A consideration of the facts indi- cAtes that there would be no strike if the question upon which vote was taken, and which started the strike, were changed to meet the present situation.
 The men were asked to vote for or against a strike because of the wage question, the question of working conditions and overtime, and the question of contracting out of shop work by the railroads.
 Today Jewell says: There are three principal issues now preventing a pos sible settlement of the railway con- troversy which are found in the re- fusal of the railway executives: to contracting out work, to establish a national board of adjustment, to con- tinue seniority rights of employees who suspend work"
 Thus Jewell intimates that the men would be willing to submit to A re- consideration of the matter of wages by the Railroad Labor Board, for he has omitted this matter from his list C the affairs preventing a settlement.

 Speakers from the striking unions will visit meetings of other unions, in and out of the railroad industry, to explain the situation and appeal for financial assistance. Circulars also will be sent broadcast to labor organizations.

 Robert Henderson, secretary of the New York, New Haven and Hartford federation, said the strikers on that railroad made heavy gains the past week.

IMPORTANT ADVICE

Members of the common council the board of finance and taxation, the city meeting board. all officials and Tn fact, all persons who wish to be post ed on city affairs and how it is wise to handle them. should cut out Roger Babson's article emanating from Well lesley Hills, published in The Herald of Saturday. and keep it for future reference when the matter of issuing bonds of the city is to be voted upon. It is quite possible that some t1nan- ciers and those who consider them selves fnancers may differ from MT. Babson in his statements and proph- ecies but his arguments should be considered and his suggestions, it is believed should be followed.
 Mir. Babson shows why we will have years of declining interest rates. He shows that municipal bonds will be in demand, as they are beginning to be in demand now. HI ance," he says cities and towns should not only borrow during the next few years for current needs but should borrow large sums and invest the same for use in the years to come, espe- cially during the next period of unemployment" There is no especial haste on the part of cities. as they will probobly be able 10 borrow free ly for several years. There is need of haste on the part of investors, however, as, if there is to be an amendment to the constitution mak- ing all bonds taxable, or even if there Is not, these bonds will go up in price. If there is prospect of such amend ment there will be quick and urgent demand for bonds which are non taxable.
 Municipalities should immediately adopt civic planning schemes" says Mir Babson. "and probably should make during the next five years such Improvements as they would ordlnar- fly make in ten"
 Now is the time for the city plan ring commission to consider the mat ters which members of 1t have long had in mind. Now is the time for the board of finance and la 2ahoa and mem bers of the common council and city meeting board to cease turning a which has dared ask only for sums winch would keep tlines going sums which would provide nccommo- dations for number Of pupils for a few years to come only. Now is the time to take these matters up, for now there is no haste, but the few years" Of time in which municipalities will be able to borrow money freely will elapse and then there will be a rush-of indeed it is not then too late. Plan now, borrow soon to com piete the plans made TOW.
 All this is good news, ns MT. Dab- son points out, to those who handle contractors supplies and building materials, for, he asserts, city water plants will wisely be extended sewers constructed and public buildings erected.
 Spiendidly encourag giny is the jump in general business ii is now only 13 per cent. below normal four per cent improvement over last week and ten per cent. better than the activity of tie same week yea ago.

RECOMMENDS OFFENSIVE

Mascow. July 24.-(By Associated Press )-The executive committee of the third internatlonale has sent an appeal to the prolectariat recommend ing it's taking the offensive. In view of the white terror" and the alta cks on workmen abroad, the appeal says, it is time defensive tactics ceased.

SEPARATE PEACE
 EFFORTS WATCHED
Optimism Prevails at B. & 0.
 Conference This Afternoon

| Chicago. July 24.-(By Associated
 Press) - With government officials
 maintaining silence in regard to the ] railway strike, except for the an- l nouncement of Ben w. Hooper, chairman, that the railroad labor board would make no further move at present, interest today turned to separate peace efforts of railroads and | strikers, Officials of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad had meeting at
 Batimore with representatives of the striking shopmen and it was conh- dently predicted that the Baltimore conference would obtain favorable re- suits.
 should the meeting result in an ad- Justment, it was expected other rail- roads would follow the same course. B, M. Jewell, head of the shopmens
 union, refused to comment on the
 Baltimore barley. but previously had acknowledged receiving offers of set tlement from a number of roads. That President Harding might take some action soon was indicated in his efforts to obtain the facts from all angles. The conference Friday be- tween members of the senate inter- state commerce committee and east ern rail chiefs, the conference be- tween Chairman Hooper and Secre-
 ary Davis meeting at Mooseheart with strike leaders, member of the labor board, and commissioner of conciliation of the department of la- bor, seemed to strengthen the belief that definite plan was being made.
 Possible action by the interstate commerce commission was seen in the statement of Attorney General Daugh- erty that the commissioner could ex- ercise supervisory power over car riers. But this would probably mean that the commission would direct dis tribution of coal under system of rationing.
 Few disturbances were reported over Sunday.
 Gov. Neff. of Texas, announced that he was prepared to send aid to any points where trains were being de-
 ayed, but said that ample protection could be given by rangers and that none of the Texas national guard would be sent for the time. Guards men have been called out in nine states.
 Railroads which had declared en- bargoes on perishable freight con- tinued to enforce the ban and motor trucks were pressed into service in l several instances At Boone, Iowa. l motor trucks were being used to carry mails to and from the town of Moin gona.

Articles to be picked lose their
crispness II scalded. All brine used
to decrease the bulk by keeping
the product in it over night should
be made in the proportion Of one
cup of salt to one gallon Of water.
For brine used for permanent
picking the proportion is one pint
or two cups of salt to one gallon
Of water.
Since many whole spices, like
cloves, stick cinnamon, etc., are
used II is always best to tie them
In a small muslin bag and not let
them scatter loose while pickling.
Generally the bag Of spices and
the vinegar are boiled alone and
poured over the prepared product.

The best containers In which TO
keep salted or picked products are
unglazed earthen Jars OF the regu.
lar glass sterilizing Jars used for
canning, since the latter enable q

time and result In less loss than

tainer is used.
Since vinegar and spice and salt
are the chief agents used 1t will
pay to buy only the best of each.
Vinegar varies greatly In quality.
There are malt, cider and wine

pay q higher price for a branded
vinegar rather than to run the risk
of spelling pickles by a coarse,
cheap kind. The same way with
spices which give the pungency
and fiavor-if low-grade spices,
are used they may ruin your

only boxed spices Of a recognized
brand. Even salt comes in differ
ent grades; so select an unadulter-
ated bag of salt. -"
Before beginning any work be
sure that all your needed utensils
are at hand, clean and in the best
condition. Sharp knives are need
ed in picking more than any
where; so have large and small
chopping and pairing knives with
razor-like edges. Do as much Of

and pairing outdoors or on q porch

Remember these few simple
minor details: Always use wood

spoon or kettle could give an
