STATE FACES
 BIG DEFICIT
Balance for Biennial Fiscal Period 1o Million Less Than Requirements,
 Controller Reports

Hartford, Feb. o.-The estimated revenue and the cash balance of the
 state of Connecticut for the present biennial fiscal period is approximately $Io, 1000, 900 less than requirements, ac- cording to the annual report of Con- troller Frederick M Salmon for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1925, which has just been published.
 The estimated revenue to be col
 lected during the present two year period IS $22,4I4,Ioo and the available cash balance is $2,242,443.7I, leaving a deficit of $Io,IIo,4I426 to meet the total requirements of $43,775o57.o5. In commenting on the report Con- troller Salmon points out that the es- timated revenue for thee biennial mately $II,8ooooo less than the total requirements for the period. Not withstanding this fact the period closed with an increase of about s.
 COG, o,ooo in cash on hand, and an in- crease in excess of sinking fund over requirements of approximately S4oo, GOO.
 The apparent deficit in the estimates
 for the prenent fiscal period is due to three causes, MT. Salmon says: G) Probable conservatism in the estimates of revenue receipts, (2) the fact that much which it appropriated
 will not be used, and (3) the carry. ing over of highway and other con
 struction appropriations into future fiscal periods
 "The annual expenditures of the state are increasing" the report stater l "but probably not at rate more rapid
 than the falling value of the dollar
 would require; certainly not faster 1 than the insistent demand for wide,
 and more intensive state. activities

THAT VACATION

Schools close about June first and
then thousands of families all over
America will begin to think about
vacation trip. During the three sum-
mer months, literally millions of folks
will pack their grips, get into the au-
tomobile and start out for some lake
or other summer resort.
That is all fine and as it should be.
Every family is entitled to get away
from home for a rest period each
year. Oftentimes, the vacation does
not bring much rest, but at least it
is change and sometimes home looks
pretty good to us after a couple of
weeks absence.
The real fun comes from seeing new
places, meeting new folks and living,
eating and sleeping out of doors as
much as possible. But it never pays
to try out-of-door life unless you are
well equipped. If you are going to
tent, have a tent that is waterproof
and with a bottom sewed in solidly,
so that you can keep out the bugs,
flies and MOSQUITOES Also have it
well ventilated for a tent can be
frightfully hot.
If you are going on a trip take a
little time to choose the place and to
make thorough preparation. 1t pays.

Mr.. and Mrs. House Fly are about

Gates that these visitors will be great
ly pleased if citizens will delay put
ting up the screens until after their
arrival and will neglect to cover the
garbage cans and to clean up the rub
bish heaps around the premises.
During 1923 there were many
deaths of infants under one year of
age, recorded in Ohio. The total for
the whole United States was appall-
ing, for the heaviest loss comes in the
large cities. A large percentage of
these deaths were from diseass which
are carried by flies. The highest death
toll comes in July, August and Sep
tember, when flies are most numer-
Gus.
Flies are great spreaders of ty-
phoid, tuberculosis, cholera, summer
complaint and other intestinal dis
eases. An investigation conducted by
the Connecticut Experiment Station
showed that single fly carried more
than six million bacteria If a fly
simply lights on bread or potatoes in
the dining room it may leave behind
it hundreds of disease germs. No one
knows how many people die annually
from diseases caused by flies.
To avoid sickness in the summer
time, kill all the flies possible and

Company "Unions"
Exposed by Friend

j Chicago-ln explaining railroad op-
position to the Howell ll-Barkley bill,
which would abolish the railroad labor
board and set up mediation machin-
cry, the American Contractor says:
zone feature of the new bill is that
the employees will be free to choose
their own representatives without the
interference of the railroads. This is
aimed at the company unions.
This unintended blow at the com
pany union" comes from friend.
The American Contractor acknowl-
edges that the company union" per-
mits railroad managers to select the
workers representatives, and that it
permits the managers to continue
their shameful deception on the pub
lie, who are led to believe there is
value in the company union"
The Howell-Barkley bill would, in
the language of the American Con-
tractor, permit employees "to choose
their own representatives without the
interference of the railroads."
This frank statement by the build
ers' publication is an Endorsement of
organized labor's position on the COM
pany union" 1t also shows why the
railroads so bitterly oppose the How
Nll-BarkleY bill.

Washington, Sept. IL. - When
President Coolidge returned from
his vacation campaign questions were
first to claim his attention.
The) presidents part in running
the campaign has not indeed, been
as strenuous as the head of a nation
al tickets part usually is. Chairman
Butler of the Republican committee
has done most of the managing, but
any number of complaints were piled
up, for the chief magistrates bene-
fit, concerning Buffers methods.
These complaints came, practically
all, from "old guard" sources
The chairman. it appears, is
treating the "old guard" all the
time with less and less ceremony.
Butler has the reputation OF
belonging distinctly to the conserva-
tive group in his party, but since
the Cleveland convention "old guards
men" say he has shown, in some re-
spects, almost a preference for the
urogressives-not the La Toilette
Progressiives but the more progress

For INSTANCE, it is understood he
has sought for advice concerning
political conditions in the northwest

YANKEE IDEAS AT WORK

NNOCneSIer feTdIu)
Closing of the American WOm-
ems Medical college in CONSTANT
NOBLE, as a result of new Turkish
regulations, is declared by DR.. AL
bert w. Staub, American director
of Near East colleges, to be OF no
great moment, as the board or
trustees already had decided that
the school must be closed because
OF a lack of financial means to
carry it on. Other American
schools in the Near East are APP
proved by the Turkish and Syrian
governments and will continue to
function with even more effective
ness in the future than in the past,
for the need of trained men and
women today is recognized by all
the peoples of the Balkans anu
Near East.
DR.. Staub recently made tour
of the Eastern Mediterranean
region and has brought back word
of one of the most amazing
changes in the social and political
order that the world ever has
seen. Not only have the govern
ments of the Balkans, OF Turkey
and OF the Arab lands been COM
pletely altered, but the East at
last seems to have gained an APP
| prehension of the mechanical
means by which Western civiliza-
ton is bound together and prOpa-
| gated. The demand for American
automobiles and farm machinery
is already large in the classic
lands beyond the Aegean sea an"
in the valleys of the Nile and
Euphrates. The building of roads,
installing of telephones and or
gunizing of common schools on
modern lines will follow as mat
ter of course.
From Jugoslavia to the borders
of Persia, there is demand TOR
graduates of the American schools
in the Near East. School Systems
that had been modelled on Euro
pean lines, for the training OF
privileged classes, are being re-
constructed according to American
standards, for the education OF all
the people. 1t is the first time III
history that the common people Of
the Near East have been recog'
nized as worthy of attention ant
training for the duties of life.
Most significant of all, while
representatives of other nation!
are under severe restrictions
Americans are free to teach ant
. work for the uplift of all races ant
creeds in the Near East. TO
America is trusted as is no Othe
} country by the Western Orient.
