NEW USE FOR PLANES

The machinations of the boil weevil is something that New England is interested in because of its effect upon southern cotton plantations, which supply the scores of northern mills with raw product. In years dur ing which the pest gets strong foothold upon the crop the industry is seriously affected and New Eng land is harmed.
 Ways of fighting the insect are many, but the most modern way IS to use an airplane to dust" a cotton plantation with calcium arsenate. The plane flies over the cotton field and scatters the chemical, which descends upon the fields and ends the happy career of the bugs
 This distribution of bug poison on the wholesale plan by the use or airplanes smacks distinctly of goth century civilization. and is another use to which the flying machine can be put. The time may come when the entire cotton industry is protect ed by hundreds of planes scattering death to bugs from the air.

 To guess at the result of the state election based upon former years Is idle on account of the Klan issue and the La Toilette entry. These in all probability will turn things topsy- turvy, and result in q shaking up of the political pot such as 1t has not had in generations.

SURPRISE MOVES PLANNED BY LOEB-LEOpOLD LAWYERS
Will Contend That Boys Have Be- come Insane Since Trial, if They
 Are Sentenced to be Hung.

Chicago, Sept. 4.-In the event of hanging decision by Judge John R. Caverly in the murder and kidnap- ping ease of Nathan Leopold, J.. and Richard Loeb, defense attorneys are understood to have under consider ation two surprise moves by which they hope to carry on the battle to save the lives of the two boys.
 The first would be the filing of a petition in a court of equal jurisdic- ton, setting forth that the boys have become insane since the trial. This petition would ask that a jury be called to determine their mental con- dtion.
 The other move, 1t is understood, would involve two steps, one before and the other after sentence is pro- nounced. The first step would be the presentation Of a motion asking Judge Caverly to withdraw the plea of guilty now entered and change to a plea of not guilty. The second step would be trial by jury.

the legislature. his first act will be to introduce a bill compelling muni- cipal water departments to pay taxes upon their plants in outside towns, like privately owned water plants are obliged to do.
 Chairman William Hatch of the New Britain water board refuted the crux of MT, Hulls claims by rejoln- Ing that the city is paying " con- siderable amount" of taxes to Bur lington, probably more than the land on which taxes are paid produced for Burlington before the city bought the land. Tl-a city's land, 1t appears is assessed as improved farm land, while much of the contiguous land Is assessed as unimproved land, From this 1t cannot be reasonably assumed that New Britain Is ruin ing" Burlington.

NOT GUILTY, GILPATRIC'S
 PLEA TO EMBEZZLEMENT
Friends of Former State Treasurer Furnish Bonds of $50.000
 For His Release

Putnam, Sept. 4.-G. Harold Gil- patric was arraigned yesterday aft ernoon before United States Com missioner Earl Matthewson of Nor wich at the Day Kimball hospital, and q formal charge of embezzle- ment presented. He pleaded not guilty and waived examination. Bonds were fixed at $5o,00O and they were promptly raised by friends of the former state treas urer whose alleged defalcations of close to s500,000 resulted in the closing of the First National bank of Putnam.
 Gilpatric was represented by At torney William A. King and the federal government by Assistant District Attorney George ii. Cohen.
 Friends of the banker had cir culated list among his former as- sociates to secure pledges for a bond when one would be fixed. Forty-one names were on the list and when 26 had been called yes- terday bonds of s94,O00 had been secured with at least as much more ready to be posted if there was need.
 Gilpatric is still a patient at the hospital and as yet has not been ad- yised that the bullet with which he had hoped to end his life has taken his eyesight. He may be removed from the hospital to the home of his father in a few days.
 Gilpatric has resigned as a mem ber of the republican state central committee.

CITY Is EXoNERATED

The sensational attack of George W. Hull of Burlington against the New Britain water board was a nischievous campaign document. II boldly asserted that New Britain was ''ruining" Burlington, that it wasn't paying taxes on its reservoir, and that fin every instance" when New Britain purchased a farm to be in- cluded in it's watershed, Burlington lost taxes, and that 1t has been the definite policy of New Britain 'to destroy every possible building it owns so as to escape taxation"

REPLIES TO MIR. HERMAN.
Reader Takes Issue With Speaker at
 Kiwanis Club Meeting.

Editor New Britain Herald:--
 Just what did Mir. Herman mean? In your issue of last evening, we read the alleged remark of MT. Kerr nan of Waterbury concerning cheap welfare workersand sentimental bosh parading as charity, winding up with the statement that sometimes we are almost as bad as the churches with their missionaries" Beautiful sentiment, isn't 1t? Who and what is MT. Herman and what does the Kiwanis club stand for? We had had more or less hay idea that it stood for civic improvement and the advancement of better ideals and practices in the community. Are men of MT. Kernan's stamp to turn 1t into a Tom Payne club?
 Whatever the Kiwanis club or the Waterbury oracle stand for, I TO- sent the inference that the church of Jesus Christ (regardless of de- nomination) is so low, so degraded, so degenerate as to be used as crl- terion for fakes and the like. Neither are those noble men and women, who live their lives to the work of God in lands far from home; who suffer many hardships dangers, separations from home and friends and a thousand other inconveniences for, the cause of Christ to be com- pared to cheap incompetents who neglect their tasks or are not ca pablo of filling their jobs.
 I hope that MT Herman has been misquoted, but If he has not. then pray that the Church of Jesus Christ and it's devoted ministers in mis- sionary fields may never drop to his intellectual and moral level.
 Sincerely
 READER.

BLOCS

A lot of fault has been found with bocs in the senate and house, but defenders of the system are begin ming to come to the front. Supposa these defenders say, a bad bill comes up, under the two-party system.
 The representatives of the party back of it support it solidly, though many of them may disapprove of it, as loyal party members. Or suppose, the bill is good. One side opposes if solidly, regardless of its merits. be cause the other side fathered it.
 Blocs, say their defenders, may have each some individual bloc h. terest, but on other questions they are likelier to vote conscientiously. However, under the United States constitution, anything but the two party system is mighty hfcon. venient when it comes to eleeting 4 president.

WHAT'S GOING ON N THE WORLD
By CHARLES P. STEWART
 NEA Service Writer

Persons who knew the Prince of Wales more or less or 10 years ago and have just seen him again say he isn't quite as lovable as he used to be. He was a rather shy, wholly unassuming, very friendly boy.
 Today, at 30, he's lost his shyness. His air is sophisticated. Bored too. No doubt it is tiresome to have to be always on dress parade! If so, the prince didn't use to show it. Now he does.
 He's pettish almost when started at or interfered with, which Is most of the time. Once he was just boy. He's a prince today, Up-stage. Very much--so. More so in this country than at home, some say.
