IN AN EMERGENCY.

Most men are well disposed toward others; they sympathize with them when the latter are placed in uncom- fortablc positions. Many let 1t go al that. Mayor Paonessa is to be com mended for showing more than pas sive understanding of the position III which some people find themselves in this fuel emergency He has not only understood; he has acted. Many peo- ple are trying to make their coal go as far as possible; they cannot order. coal ahead of time because they do not know. or have not known just when they would need it, or. knowing this. they may not be sure when they can pay for it. They have not or dered ahead of time. The severe weather came nccessitating the burn- ing a great deal more coal than pre- yiously. and they are out More over they or their families may be suffering from the cold.
 
 Under such circumstances, and in such emergency only, the statement of Mayor Paonessa that the city will furnish means of delivering coal in certain cases will be approved by all the people. not only by those who will be personally saved from a dis tressing position, but also by those who have plenty of coal in their eel lars but who have consideration for others. It is for the people not to abuse the chance; none should seek tbe city's aid in getting coal who do not actually need that aid. It is for all the people to refrain from grum- bling over the comparatively small added expense this emergency move will bring to the city.

OPEN LETTER TO A SEiGunoR.

Shifting his cigar from the right 10 the left corner Of his mouth and glaring out at the snowdrifts on Per kins street. the editor Of the Meriden Record plunged his pen into his vitriol pot the other evening and pro- ceeded to lambaste the New Britain Herald because our editorial on cleaning the streets displeased him.
 The Herald disagreed with the rec ommendation Of the Chamber or Commerce for the. purchase or addi- tional snow removing equipment. having been informed in reliable quarters that the problem in this city is one Of man power rather than ma chine power. For this, the Record. emulating Meriden's first citizen, MT. Kaplan, struck out from the shoul- der.
 We have almost abandon@1 the idea of educating the editor Of the Record in big city ways. We realize that it is difficult for a newspaper in small town to appreciate the problems which confront us in growing. hus- ting city. But we shall not stop trying because we believe that in struction in this direction may eyen- tually be of some benefit.
 We had occasion to pass through the delightful, if sleepy, Silver City" this week and were led to wonder whether it's citizens were aware of the condition of their streets. True, the trolley company has broken a pathway here and there, but the streets in general are in deplorable shape, and we can't blame the editor of the Record for sitting in his sane forum and growing.
 If one admires nature unaltered by the hand of man, our advice is See Meriden first But if one likes streets which show that an effort, and q successful effort in most cases, has been made to provide passable thor oughfares, one should stay in New Britain.

THE HEREIN VERDICT.

Four union miners and taxi cab driver have been acquitted of guilt for the death of some Of the twenty men massacred near Herrin in the tragedy of June %. No man who did not hear every word of the testimony at that trial and who did not see the defendants has a right to declare that verdict just or unjust. Needless to say no human being, whether he was present at that trial or not, may say whether or not the men are guilty. They have been acquitted on the counts for which they were tried, and they must be viewed as innocent
 But any man or woman may regret the verdict, not because these particu- lar defendants were declared guilt less on these particular charges, but rather because, as yet no person has been found, apparently responsible for the terrible affair. Every person in the country may and should be- come vitally concerned over situa- ton which indicates the possibility of letting the awful situation remain as it is. with no fixing upon the guilty the blame for this crime. A mob shed blood at Herrin; Q mob shed blood at Mer Rouge; a mob took life in Arkansas. Something greater than punishment of individuals is at stake. The monster mob violence is on trial at Herrin, Mer Rouge, in Arkan- sas. That is the thing which must not be allowed to live on, gaining desciples in the forms of men. Only courageous attempts to find and pun ish those who have been inspired by that mob spirit to threaten the peace and safety of men and women and children of this country will bring the verdict of guilty and the punish ment of punishment from mems hearts.

CITY BUYING AT HOME.

It developed at the last meeting of the common council that one depart ment of the city had purchased some thing like s10,00O worth Of goods out of the city in the year 1921. The same department. having had the matter called to it's attention, pur- chased only few hundred dollars worth of goods outside Of the city last year. thus retaining in the city the difference between s1o,G0o and a few hundred. No one will deny this benefits the people if the city did not lose money by the change.
 Subsequent inquiry brings the in- formation that at times other de- partments of the city buy goods out of town without giving local people a chance to offer their wares. It is said on what seems to be good au- ,thority, that in certain cases the de- partments have seemed 10 take it for granted that better bargains or better goods could be secured outside of New Britain. This attitude is entirely wrong. Of course. It should be the desire of all departments and boards to buy fere if possible. Every op- portunity should be given local mer- chants to show what they have and to discuss matters with those who have authority to buy for the city. The merchants support local institu-

Bishop MaRniRgs letter 10 Rev Percy 8 Grant, teiliRg him in ehee' that he must eithfF retFaei his aenlai Of heiisf in inc teachings ef me church of whichshe is minisieF, or leave his posiiloa, as such minister is the wise eARressaon of man who sees clearly Ftls reasoning applies to matters outside Af these tAeslegr teal; his stand nfshl ssll be followed by leaders in all hFakehes Of life activity, The great question Of honeF and good faith is invoked, Bishop Banning tells lke clergyman in auesF lion not only that he hasa right to believe anything that might deny The principles of his church, hnl, more than this, it Is his daty to follow those heliefs even though they take hlm outside af the church,
 From this aspect Rishep Aaaning's letter is of interest to eli people ehurchmen or not, as the statement Of broad minded man, quite as "lib- eral" as Rev, Percy Grant himself' hut wac possesses a far deeper in' sight into the rights and duties Of one who would keep faith, The fol' lowing extract of Bishop Mannings letter might well apply to any mem her Of any organization. secular or clerical;
 You are at liberty 10 teach
 whatever you believe, but you
 are not at liberty 10 deny the
 faith for which the Protestant
 Episcopal church stands and .at
 the same time 10 continue as one
 Of her ministers. IL is ineum-
 bent upon all Of us to follow
 what we believe 10 be the truth
 wherever it may lead us, and II
 it leads you outside the Episeo-
 pal church. Il Is your duty eoura-
 geously and honestly to follow Il
 there, but so long as you elect to
 remain a minister Of this church,
 loyalty to its creed Is q binding
 obligation upon you. If you do
 not believe in Jesus Christ as God
 and Saviour you are restricting
 your own freedom and inJuring
 yourself by remaining in your
 present position.
 There is no loose denunciation here; no condemnation of beliefs or lack of faith. There are no argu- ments to support the belief of Bishop Manning as opposed to those of the minister. There is but plain state ment of the obligation a man assumes when he becomes a priest of the Episcopal Church, his duty to him self to be faithful to his own convic- tions and his duty to himself, his church and his fellows, born of the necessity of following those convic- tions
