The American Legion Of New Britain, not to be left behind in good works. has contributed to tho fresh air fund. The contribution was rhlat- ively as large as that of any other or- ganisation, considering that the eN- service mems organization is not roll ing in wealth.

ITALIAN FASC|STI
 LEADER ARRESTED
Accused Ol Responsibility in
 MatteOtti Mystery

Rome, June 19.--Gioyanni Mari nclli, a former member Of the direc- torate of tho Fascist party, has been arrested in connection with the kid- 1 mapping and suspected staying of | Deputy Matteotti. He is charged with having, with others sought 10 deprive Matteotti of his personal free dom." There is no evidence that the deputy has actually been mur- dored.
 The semi-offcial Stefani news agency declares that public opinion is expressing satisfaction with the measures taken by the government in dealing with the affair, and that great demonstrations have been held in many towns, pledEing continued ad- hesion to Premier MussoIini. The complications and notifications of the case are spreading. involving hourly a larger number of people. The arrest Of Marinelli was not aI- together unforeseen. Like Cosarc Rossi he refused to stand for the chamber Of deputies in the recent elections, preferring to remain in ad- ministraiive direction Of the fascist
  party. Of which he was secretary and With Rossi, a member of the qua drumvirate into a directory" carly this week after iiossi's resignation, did not include Msfnelli in his list. Marinelli had centered in his hands from it's Initiation the entire or- ganization of the fascisii party which. after the march on Rome. and the as- sumption Of the premiership by Mus solini became one Of the most im- porant political and miitar. or- ganizations in Europe. Marinclli had at his disposal immense sums for which he was obliged to account only 10 the other members of the quadrum yirate, one Of whom was Rossi.
 Marinelli was considered by the fascisti as one Of the irremota ble supports or their party.

TRAFFIC RULES STAY

The common council Of New Britain has unanimously adopted the one-way traffic system at the Center, has embodied it in new ordinance which was passed last night, and thus has taken what many regard as the most important step forward in traf- fo regulation in the history of the city.
 The action of common council. taken after the new regulations were placed on the grill of probation, dur ing which beneficent results of the system were carefully watched, is un- doubtedly popular move in most circles.
 The council is to be congratulated upon the open-minded manner in which 1t grappled with the problem. That there would be some opposition was certain: yet it was equally as cer- tain that some improvement had to be made, When the minority of op- ponents to the system had no better plan to offer it was foregone conolu- sion that the council would be com pelled to continue the one-way traffic regulations indefinitely by embodying them into law.
 Time-worn customs regarding traf- f1c regulations have been dislocated In virtually all cities where downtown streets are not adapted to excessive motoring. Even small country towns gre bothered with the problem,
 The council of New Britain was forced to take an action which many believe should have been taken earlier. Old conditions were intolerable. The new rules appear to be vast improve ment,

sIaAn ON HIGHWAYS

';;'' state highway commission has le' it be known that its field forces i have been instructed to remove all il- legal signs along the highways. IL is declared that Organizations, busi- ncssos and individuals" have been put ling them up on the wholesale plan, in hsphazard fashion and in manner 1 inimical to the safety of motorists.
 Signs along Connecticut highways arr a nuisance. Most motorists are disgusted with meeting them atevery turn. The signs are not only all irri- tation to the eye, but are despoilers Of good appearances snd help to take the pleasure ont of pleasure riding Owners of property along highways who permit sign board cntrcpreneurs 10 ruin the appearance of their land with offensive signs are taking hribe in the form of little profit and doing big bit to desecrate the good looks of the state Proximity Of a road makes property more valuable, and in all morality this should be enough benefit to the property owners without going to the extreme of permitting an obnoxious sign to be erected with in sight of the highway.
 The propagators of big sign boards have long ago oserplayed their hand. They have no friends among motorists or the general public. The agitation against signs has reached the point where their total abolishment is with in the realms of probability. In some states this is virtually already the case. The sign board fanatics and the property owners who help to play their game will have only themselves to blame for the trend Of enlightened opinion on this subject.

HIGHWAYS AND MOTORS

Motor vehicles registered in Connce- { ticut increased in ten years from 27,Iss 10 1so,S5s During the same period mileage of surfaced rohds in- creased from 925 to 1.779. These figures. announced hy the state highway department, indicate that there are ,betwon six and seven times as many motor vehicles in the state than there were ten years ago, yet the total Of surfaced highways has rot bpen doubled.
 Of course. there is difference be- tween what constituted surfaced" highway ten years ago and today. But for practical purpgsss The fact re- mains that the increase of surfaced highways in the state has been zoe fully outdistsnced by the increase in motor vehicles.
 Tho jam Of vehicles on tho highways is thus easily explained. To solve the problem woeld bs 10 resurface more highways: but this costs money. The highway depaft mcht announces that s1 i0G. U60 more than was received in motor fees was pended for highway development last year.

\ TALK ON WEATHER

About week ago the |. $, weather bureau at Hartford informed a gulli-
 ble public that the session in Connect icut was only two weeks in arrears: meaning that the verdant growth that graces the earth hereabouts was only that period of time behind what it ought to be. Then, a few days later, comes the announcement from the weather bureau that blithesome spring this year has been cooler than for 50 years,
 Manifestly, the two statements don't iibe. But then, the public by. this time is quite accustomed to the protean facility of the weather bureau state ments. We are expected to believe everything, doubt nothing. and rest content.
 Citizens who are enjoying the first real breath of spring after siege of cool. cold and rainy weather, arc in- clined to believe that the 50 year statement is near the truth and that the season is more than two weeks behind schedule. They arc more in- clined to think il is six weeks behind. It is stated by persons who get their figures from the weather bureau that it's prognostications are right nine times out of ten. Few critics take the trouble 10 check up on the allegation. To do SO even moderately shows. it is stated, that the weather bureau is correct little more than half the time.
 What does the weather bureau do but issue gucsses on large scale? 1t is a national organization, composed in the main of wise weather sharks who make gnesses In scientific man. ner. This isn't saying that a scientific guess is any better than any other kind Of guess.
 Tile average man accepts a guess issued by the weather bureau and banks on it. If he Is disappointed as he frequently is--he merely forrsts if and makes mental note that. lt is necessary Co make allowances for mis- takes and that even scientific weather hounds are human.
 The weather bureau bases it's de- duetions on spotting high pressures and low pressures, and from these an attempt is made 10 guess whsre the st orm Is going 10 break. Information from all parts Of the country is tele- graphed to the main points and in Washington an elaborate system Of keeping track Of things is in operation. Experienced Euessers then make guesscs. with an eclat 10 suggest they once went 10 guessing school.
 To maintain q governmental weath- or bureau is necessary evil. Ii has to be done in order 10 be efficient and up-to-date. Part of inc game is 10 tshnlate everything in relation to the weather except the mistakes Of the bureau.
