The argument is made that some
 positions are but part time jobs" To
 a honest worker, a part time job for which he receives salary, is q
 whole time job because the conscious
 ness of something always to be done"
 never leaves him, hampering his en- deavors in other lines. Joe Woods is
 conscientious workers. Recognize
 and appreciate the honesty he brought
 to the office of prosecuting attorney at time when New Britain had to have this quality in it's prosecutor-this quality that money can not buy. Another characteristic that comes under the head of the priceless things is that of loyalty and devotion. The salary committee will reconsider also its determination not to put the pay of our firemen back where it was be- fore the adoption of the two- platoon system. The Herald worked for the adoption of this system. When it came. after many disappointments. this newspaper urged the firemen not to ask immediately for an increase in pay.
 The attitude Of the men who pro- tect our property has been an attitude of fairness and devotion under dis appointment after disappointment. The last old city meeting voted for the two-platoon system. The firemen were all reay for if and had made their plans. It was denied them. Later the very money voted in order to install this plan was used for other purposes. Still they remained the ef- ticient, splendid public servants they are today. A year has passed. Now they ask that. having been given com paratively decent hours, only a trife longer than the hours of the rest of us, their pay be returned to the amount formerly received in the days when they had absolutely no time to themselves. The Herald believes that they have waited long enough. As previously they were tied to their po- sitions twice as long as the rest of us, yet receiving the pay of many who served but half that time, so now that they arc required to be on duty only a few hours longer than most men, they should again receive the pay most men receive for a days work.

BEYOND SUSPICION

Circumstances often prevent men
 from saying just what they believe. They may fear being misunderstood.
 They fear, often, that asignificance
 will be given to their utterances which
 was not intended. They hesitate at
 the thought of being accused of pos
 sessing uterior motives. And so they
 remain silent. To be beyond suspicion
 is an enviable position indeed.
 Many Americans. deeply loyal to this country and detesting the part
 Germany played in the war. have felt
 long since that the welfare of Europe
 and, incidentally perhaps, the greatest prosperity of this country, depended in measure upon allowing Germany
 to get on her feet. Many saw the hope
 lessness Of trying to force debtor to
 pay who was unwilling to pay in the
 first place and who was being given
 little chance 10 get Into a position to
 pay But few Americans have cared to come out publicly as the champion of Germany in this aspect of the reparations matter. They dreaded these true Americans, above all things being called "pro-German." In their hearts they had violent prejudice against Germany. many of them, and yet recognition by them of this pre- iudice was the very thing that made them feel they should still be fair. There was no sentiment connected with their private stand. As a mere business proposition they saw the ne- cessity Of giving a debtor a chance to make money if the debt were ever to be cancelled. But they held their peace. They were not beyond the suspicion of the hypercritical.
 General Charles c. Dawes, one Of the leading business men and finsn- ciers in the United States and now chairman of the First Committee Of experts appointed 10 consider the re- sources and capacity Of Germany to pay reparations, Is in 9 position that places him today beyond suspicion. "HeIp Germany Get Well" he has de- clared. emphasizing that balancing Of Germany's budget and strengthening ont her economic problems so that she will be able to start afresh Is the to the payment of repar- a,iops. General Dawes has broadcast the words that were upon the lips of many Americans who are fair and practical. An American can not hold back bit of his enthusiasm as he realizes the respect given to the words : of this man who is not, in theory. . our representative. but who. in fact, is the representative of this country in . ifs effort to at last give or it's knowl- edge. wisdom, experience and plain . common sense to Europe, 20 sadly ! lacking in many of these qualities the Europe where these characteris- tics are smothered by complex diplo- matic phrases and secret understand ings and plots.
 The first speech of General Dawes has blown away the cloud Of doubt that lowered over Europe. No man of this country may fail to feel that the first great step in the solution of problems. which affect the worlds problems so vitalIy, has been made.
