WHAT IS BEHIND AMERICAN
FRIGHT ABOUT FACE?"


assembled a Congress such the which viii meet
it will be Congress of mnOrities, aCOngress In
which the Republicans will have paper majority only.
Congress in which the regular Republicans and the old
line Democrats will be just about tied, so far
bership is concerned Congress in which weOrganiz
ed ably led group, calling themselves PrOgressives, will
hold the balance of power in both Houses
HOLD BALANCE
OF POWER
The New York Times tells the truth: The so-called
radicals and progressives hold the balance of power
both Houses of Congress- They have the power and it
is their duty to utilize this power.
WHY DON'T
THEY ACT?
United States. Big capital is exproprating mlens of
farmers and driving them off their land The working
class going for the most part unorganized toward an
industrial crisis and serious unemployment. The i'm
perasm of the international bankers and trusts wants
to lead the United States into new world en-
tanglements into world-wars. The army and navy
preparedness is going forward apace The taxes of the
farmers growing to unbearable degree The
cost of living of the workers is on the increase The
criminal tariff renders the monopoly of the trusts on in
dustra products the greatest menace against the life of
the whole nation.
ONLY BOLD
MEASURES WILL HELP!
Underneath seemingly prosperous exterior the stu
alton in the United States is extremely serious The dis
satisfaction of the becoming ever greater and
camOrous Only bold measures can clear the stu
alton.

BELIEVES IN SERVICE
Rotary Club President Accepts Orders From High School Teacher and Runs Brand As Told.

Members of the New Britain Ro. tary club arc telling a good story about Fred 0. Rackliffe, president of the club, and the manner in which he exemplified the Roxarian theory of service this morning.
 Mir. Rackliffe was acting as host to Dr. W. E. Forebush of Media, Penn- sylvania, who was the speaker at the Rotary luncheon. Dr. Forebush, rep resenting the National Honesty league had a special address for High school students and this morning spoke to the students of the local high school.
 In the course of the visit to the in- stitution. so the story goes, high school teacher met Mir. Rackliffe in the hallway and impressed with his youthful appearance, mistook him for a pupil. Here" she said, showing a package at the Rotarian president, take these cards down to the office." "All right" MT. Rackliffe Is said to have replied. "Tll leave them there on my way out" But this service was not enough. When a school teacher demands action she want it, and if she is high school teacher she wants it at once. "I want them delivered to the office at oncc," the teacher is said 10 have replied, and Fred de- liyered the cards without further argument.

TRAIN SKINS PAST AUTO
 WITH DETECTIVE AT WHEEL
Gateman Lowers Bars But Not Until Sleuth's Machine Has Passed
 Onto Tracks.

Failure of the gateman at the Main street crossing to lower the gates on time for train that was passing the station almost caused a serious acci- dent late yesterday afternoon. The train entered the station from the east and the gateman thought that like all other trains. if would stop at the station, as he did not receive any warning whistle from the engineer.
 The train did not stop and when the gat eman saw that il was going through, he started to lower the gates rapidly to hold the traffic back, but Sergeant William P. McCue of the de- tective bureau of the police depart ment had just started to cross the tracks in his auto, and when he heard the clang of the bell as the gates were lowered. he stopped his machine immediately 10 keep out of the path of the oncoming train. The engineer of the train seeing that the gates had not been lowered in time and that people were scampering across in an effort to get off the track. brought the train to a stop. Sergeant McCue stopped his machine under the gate so that it was impossible to low CT them to the propor position, but the train proceeded on its way.
 It was a train of empty passenger cars that was being transferred from Hartford to Waterbury and was not carrying passengers.

BOYS, GIRLS AND MONEY
Dr. William Byron Forebush Tells Ro- tarians How Parents should I,cgu- late "Allowances'' to Children.

The theory of inclusive allow ance' was explained to members of the New Britain Rotary club today at noon by pr. William Byron Forebush of Media, Pennsylvania, president of the National Honesty League. Dr. Forebush advanced as the theory of teaching boys and girls the proper value of money that Of putting them on their own.''
 He said.t the best way to teach boys and girls to handle money honestly and successfully is to total the amount needed for their expenses for a year, divide the total into 52 parts and give them the money every Monday morn ing, letting them figure out their own financial problems from that basis.
 There's no advantage in giving your boy or girl 50 cents a week for an allowance and then paying all the bills" he said. Fifty cents won't buy anything these days except candy and soda water and when you give your boy or girl 50 cents a week to spend you are just tempting them to do something foolish with their money.
 "A boy Is no more born with the faculty of spending money wisely than he is born in possession Of the Ten Commandments.
 Give them a chance to learn the value of money while at home while under the care of parents. The best way to make a man out of your boy is to put the responsibility onto him. When a boy gets 10 the point whcro he asks where something worth while is before he spends the money for it, he is beginning 10 be something worth while himself.
 "The Bible tells us the love Of money is the root of all evil, but the wise use of money can be made to be the source Of all kinds Of good,
 There is no better plan than put ting the boy on his own responsibility to teach him to satisfy his wants simply and to give him sense of self respect and honesty. Thieves never steal 10 save, they steal to spend. Teach your boy or girl to spend wisely"
 He told the story Of girl who wanted her father to buy her SEQ hat but when put on the inclusive saving plan, she found one for sl.50 that suited her just as well. He told stories about boys going onto that plan who figured out ways to save money and still buy their own clothes. and pay all their own expenses.
