VACCINATION AGAIN

The Herald is again in receipt of a
 rather lengthy communication from an anti-raecinationist. It is not ac- ceptable to this newspaper for publi- cation for reasons which we have out lined before and which We will again:
 The figures quoted in the article are obviously picked up practically verba- tim from some national anti-vaecina- tionist propaganda sheet, It quotes statistics from points which arc re- note from us, it makes a great splash of stuff that may or may not, be founded up facts As 10 that we cannot say. We are not going to undertake to reprint, even in the guise Of communi- cation from our readers, a series Of articles furthered by any group of faddists and broadcasted by every pos sible means of publicity, whether the articles fl in with our views or are in divergence from them. That Is not the function Of a newspaper. Literally tons of propaganda stuff of one kind or another, political, religious, mer- cantile, union, open shop, and so forth are discarded by the editor every week. Most of lt is not even read, ii is glanced at and thrown away.
 The figures Of the press agent of the anti-yaccinationist are not going to be quoted in these columns. If an anti vaccinationist makes an address in New Britain his remarks will be quot ed, as will those Of a believer in vac- cine. Those casesaHould be local in their application, they would he Of di- rect interest here and part Of the daily events Of the town.
 We do not wish 10 offend 2 reader, we do not wish to question the strength Of his belief, we wish to ae- cord him every courtesy. But VIC must call halt somewhere. And the halt has been called as far As reprinting props ganda is concerned.

before he is through. That is quite as
 it should be. he should be conducted
 to +he hospital, morgue, or police sta
 ton just as quickly as possible. But, 1 the unfortunate part of an accident { is that some driver who has been con ] ducting himself as he should, with
 due regard for the rights of others and thoughtfulness for his own safe ty is usually the victim of the road bully. He suffers as much, or more.
 than the person responsible.
 IL is too bad that arrangements can
 not be made some day to close one
 particular road 10 all but the brag-
 garts of the highway Then, with the lid off we could let them go to it and kill themselves and each other off, completely and finally.
 If the thoughtless motorist can be eliminated from the highway by police action or will eliminate himself by training himself to become considerate of others we may dispense with large percentage of accidents. We realize that it approaches foolishness to at tempt to reason with the bully, that the only argument he will recognize is swift and sudden justice, but there is always the hope that at least one of his kind will see the light, and this article is offered with that hope up- permost.
 The roads are becoming crowded to a point Of soffocation on a Sunday, there is every reason to expect they will be more so as the weather be- comes better. There will be no place upon them for the swaggerer of the highway, whatever the power and ! of his car. There will be 1 room for the vast ma jority of eonsid- 1 crate drivers.

demonstrated in the past few weeks
 President Harding, during his cam
 paign for the office decried the League
 of Nations. he did favor an "Associa-
 tion of Nations" Since the election the
 idea Of World Court" has come up. Lodge, for some reason hest known to
 himself, does not approve of the
 World Court" but wants an "Interna-
 tional Court"
 When is a league not league, and
 when is an association league. How l does an International Tribunal" diff i fer from an International Court" Neither one of all Of these is to be confused with the Permanent Court of International Justice" nor the Court of Arbitration. which were organized by the Hague conventions
 in 1899 and 1907.
 What is what and who is who?
 And if so. why?
 The whole truth of the matter
 seems to be that the astute politicians are looking for a loop-hole through
 which they may conveniently cater to the individuals who feel that there should be some sort of an internation- al body formed to decide the issues between nations which have previous ly been decided through warfare and also nov to those who are against a League of Nations" as proposed by President Wilson. They do not wish to lose the votes of those who may he termed "internationaists and they do not wish to offend those who believe 1 in isolation
 All this evasion avails little. There i is coming, at some time, an Associa- tion of Nations, a League of Nations. ] a World Tribunal, an International | Tribunal-call it what you will, for l the settlement of difficulties. Possibly l they may never be settled, but there will be made step away from war instead of one toward it. The possi- bility of mending strained relations is greater If there is a league than if there is not, the possibility of litiga- tion bctwen your neighbor and your self is less If you and your neighbor live on good terms with each other and are not jealous of the others holdings. If you can get together and talk things over you are far less liable to go to court than If you are spend ing most Of your evenings at home his property and your own 1ut of the kitchen window, because you are afraid that he may trepass on TOUT land.
 Politicians may squirm, may coin lew terms for the sake of harmony, nay attempt to play both ends against the middle and back again put there ia only one solution, a solu- ion that will ultimately be reached md that is the formation of some sort ,f a coneiliatory body, comprising the nations of the globe, where difficulties nay be discussed and judged over a 'ound table, We cannot get ourselves ID as the final judges Of the world without going to great expose in he maintenance Of an army and a ayy capable of beating a combination . f other nayies and armies. Might ' iakes right we might enforce our ! olicies on the globe-but we are not oing to try that. We cannot main- a lin policy of isolation when other 2 ations arc discussing world affairs. ' hortly VIC shall sincerely regret fl. 2 all it what you will, but let lis have Q ction on combination of powers, C anicd together for the common ood. T
