COMMUNICATED
\ Workman's View of Daylight
 Saving Time

Editor New Britain Herald:
 Dear 1ir-Nearly every night I see in your paper something about the Daylight Saving time. They all seem to come from the same source, like cur Mayor, he goes to bed when he gets ready and gets up when he wants to, he does not have to run at the sound of whistle and work in a room where there are 160 hands Only two in the whole room want Daylight Saving time and those two have farms. They are trying to get the full time in the shop and run their farms at the same time. In another room there are 130 and every one in the whole room wants Stan dard Time. If you want this time settled for good let us working people have a chance to vote on it. I am sure that 90 per cent of the working people want Standard time and it is a shame to have the clocks in the churches stopped They never had ought to have been turned ahead. There is only one time and that Is Standard Time.
 Yonrs sincerely

DIVORCE ON CREDIT

The number Of diyoFees Is iAeFsas,
 iHg' everybody understands taat and
 most people regret the fact Various
 causes for this increase are given,
 The news from France is astaunding,
 IH 1918 there were something over
 l5,oh0 divareesl in 1919 there were
 more than .9,6eo and in 1890 there
 were si.ooe, and there the figure
 stands approximately today, The
 general causes of divorce in that country are reported 10 le inf1ellty, deserlloH and the slow breaking up Of the family during the war; with the greater freedom that has come 10 women who began 10 earn their own living during the war" It is said that both sexes have lost in some measure their sense Of moral responsibility and that prevalent nervousness. growing out Of the war has made members Of both sexes less able io bear the rec straints and trials Of married life, The courts arc moro tolerant and divorce is easier 10 secure.
 These are general causes which all have bearing upon the situation. but it is believed that there is one great reason for the astounding increases in divorce in that country There is no question but that taste Of the free dom for women resulting from their ability 10 earn their own living in country where this custom did not previously obtain, has had its effect and there is no question but that the terrors of wartime in that country, the battle field, have stamped indelible impressions upon the minds of the men and women Of that land which have taken them farther away from the state of normalcy. But these are general causes for the increase, their importance a matter Of opinion. The DIf great fdbst TUT iilF iANi'ps'F III MY number of d!vorces would seem to be indicated by the advertisements which | have begun to appear to this effect; Divorce in three months, on credit l and no payment unless decree obtain ed"
 How many discontented people | would enter the divorce court in re- sponse to such advertisement? The | question may be answered by another; 1, How many people in any country purchase unvisely merely because | things may be obtained on credit the country which al- lows men to induce its people to break up their homes by extending credit to them.

And, little farther, American port officials have been ordered to accept the affi- davits of foreign shlpmasters and surgeons as to the amount of medi- cinal liauor necessary to take care Of passengers and crew, Incidentally the statement is made that the recent rul- ing of the court will be lived up to strictly.

CHAOS IN CHINA
Coalition of Leaders, Headed By Pres. Yuan-Hung Includes Some of the Strongest Military Lords.

By The Associated Press.
 Shanghai, June l9.-Further chaos in the Chinese political situation was indicated today by reports of a coali- tion of leaders headed by Ii Yuan Hung. president of the republic who recently fled from the capital at Peking to his home in the Brtish concessions at Tien Tsin and including Chang Tso-Lin the war lord of Man. churia; Sun Yat Sen, head of the South China "constitutionalists' and Lu Yung -Hsiang, the military gover- nor of Chekiang province.
 The allied leaders it is said, plan to shift the capital of China from Picking to Hang Chow. province of Chekiang, in order to get away from the influence" of the party which is considered entirely "unfavorable."
 The coalition is declared to have been formed following recent confer ences at Tien Tsin.

TAX EXEMPTIONS

Often 1t has been said in these columns that the growing burden of taxation is the greatest problem peo- pie have to face today, Of course those who pay the heaviest taxes are the ones who are most eager to see that burden frightened, although the small taxpayer can less well afford to pay his smaller amount than can the large taxpayer. But the latter have the influence; the former. the small property owner has little. Similarly the more tax exempt pro- perty there is, the heavier the burden upon all taxpayers. But making pres ent tax-exempt property subject to taxation should relieve the heavier taxpayers more, in proportion, than 1t will the small taxpayer. But, having the power, the large taxpayers are the ones who have taken the matter in hand of reducing taxes by trying to see If there is not some property now exempt which should not be exempt.
 Publicity is now given 10 the com mission, recently established. whose object will be to decide whether the exemption granted to organizations for moral or mental improvement or for religious, charitable or education al purposes operates equitably, whether such exemptions are being misnsed or employed improperly for profit or otherwise, and whether there are organizations owning property which is not exempt which may be entitled to tax exemptions on terms equal to societies which own proper ty which is, in whole or in part, exempt from taxation"
 The heaviest taxpayers in this To- caiity are the manufacturing corpora tions. It is a simple matter Of arith- metic 10 see that they would benefit most by taxing some property now exempt. The small taxpayer would profit, also. A New Britain man has been honored by the governor in his selection Of tho commission of three to investigate these tax exemptions properties Ernest W Christ. our representative in the house. has been made q member Of that commission. l Mir.

WAITING STATION

It would be very nice indeed for the Connecticut Company were New Britain 10 build and maintain 4 wait. ing station where the passengers on the cars Of the company might wait preparatory to patronlzing it. This would be n pretty courtesy 10 show thesconnectieut Company. II would induce travel on the oompany's lines to Hartford. 10 say nothing Of adding 10 the convenience of people using the company's lines who are obliged 10 change cars here. Of course the Connecticut Company can not be ex- pected to pay for any such waiting station: the company cannot afford fl. Even renting such waiting sta- ton would be A little farther than the company would care 10 go, probably. But New Britain might be assured that the company would be pleased, whether or not 1t said SO in so many words.
 But the trouble is that New Britain people feel there is. at present, no especial reason why New Britain should go out of its way to be kind and courteous to the Connecticut Company. We realize, of course, all the good things the company has done for New Britain and how quick it would be to do things for New Britain in the matter of service, etc, were it in financial position to do so. But it is not in such financial position, and until it is it would seem, almost, as though New Britain were seeking to display its excessive courtesy in a far-fatched way were the city to build and maintain a beautiful waiting sta- ton for the Connecticut Companys customers. We say "beautiful' ad visedly, because certainly the people of the city do not want an unsighty waiting station in or near central park-not for the benefit of the Con- necticut Company. Perhaps, just perhaps, it would be as well to wait until the company has shown some courtesy to New Britain before the city undertakes to do something which is essentially the business of the company.

SCOUTS COMMENDED
 FOR SAVING LIVES
Court Of Honor Discusses ReSCueS
 in Willow Brook Park Pool

William Tancred and John Brick son. who, with their scoutmaster, Dwight Skinner, jumped into a pool of muddy water Sunday afternoon and saved four girls and a boy from drowning, were commended before a meeting of the Scout court of honor at Scout headquarters last evening. The boys were modest in telling their story and contended that it was noth- ing more than what any real Ameri- can with red blood would do under the same circumstances and with the same training. Both Tancred and Erickson have former records for saving lives.
 The court of honor after investiga- ting the case concurred in the de- cision to recommend the principals in the life saving incident for a letter of commendation.
 The silver and bronze medals for life saving have been eliminated and there is but one medal of solid gold, which involves extreme risk of per sonal life, to be won. Because of this TO medals will be awarded al- though 1t is likely they will be recom- mended.
 "The real reason there was no great risk of life is because the res- cuers had been so thoroughly schooled in the modern methods of fife saving and being scouts were prepared to do the right thing at the right time in the right way" accord ing to Walter o. Cook, scout execu- tive.
 scoutmaster skinner claims that there was no personal heroism in- volved in his part of the work, that he merely performed his duty as a scout leader, and believes that the credit is due entirely to the boys.
