DIFFICULTIES OF
 MILK ORDINANCE
Lack of Funds for Condemned
 Cattle Hampers Enforcement

Although the new city ordinance requiring milk dealers to sell milk which comes only from tuberculin tested cattle or milk that is pasteur- ized went into effect January 1, it is difficult to enforce the ordinance because of lack of funds with which to reimburse farmers whose cattle are killed when they show evidence of tuberculosis
 Last July the state appropriated approximately sa0O,000 for this pur- pose. It has been used up and few funds are available. A conference was held this morning at the office of State Health Director Osborne in Hartford. which was called by Com missioner Whittlesey of the depart ment of domestic animals, of health officials in all the cities and towns in the state. Plans were discussed to raise funds to carry on this work un- til the next appropriation is passed.
 Dr. R. w. Pullen. superintendent of health, and Dr. B. D. Radcliffe, veterinarian, who is connected with the health department, were in at- tendance at the conference.
 In the New Britain territory a large number of cattle have. been tested and quite 8 number showing tuberculor symptoms have been kill ed. But the farmer is allowed the value of his cattle killed by order of the health officials and much of money for this purpose has been ex- hausted, although it has not. been found necessary to stop the work.
 Since the passage of the new city ordinance. farmers in this section are applying for tests on their cattle more rapidly than the department is able to take care of them, and, although large numbers of milk cows with tu- bercular tendencies have been elim- mated the lack of state funds has hampcred tests for the time being.
 In discussing the new ordinance this morning, Dr. Radcliffe said Tt is the greatest health step ever taken by the city of New Brit ain."

no evidence was elicited of any emo tional episode" unconnected with the injury during the period between March 18th and March 26th. So on the one hand we have a rational ba- sis for a conclusion by the eomInis- sioner that either Dr. -Swett was mis- taken in considering the claimant as well man when he discharged him, or else was speaking rather of his physical than of his mental or emo tional condition; and, on the other, we have in the situation pictured by the wife as existing on March 26th. the very emotional episode" which Dr. Wiedman was seeking; the doc tor himself said that breeding over his inability to work and support his family might furnish such an episode; and, when that condition was forcibly brought home to him by his securing an opportunity to work and his con- yiction of his inability to hold the job, the cause which Dr. Wiedman felt was necessary in order to ac- count for the outbreak might, in all reason, be said to be found. The com missioner had also before him the opinion of the doctor who had been in attendance upon the claimant. to the effect that the condition of the claimant was due to the injury.
 The fairness and good judgement of the commissioner and the careful at- tention he gives to the problems be- fore him bespeak consideration for any conclusion he reaches, and in dealing with such a situation as the' one here involved his experience in similar cases is an invaluable aid, I would hesitate in any event to hold his conclusion illogical unreasonable or unlawful: but in this particular case. far from so holding, l think l would have been impelled to the same result he has reached.
 The appeal is dismissed.

be mentally normal and in a very satisfied and contented frame of mind; and that he was sufficiently recovered to return to work, which the doctor advised him to do. The claimants arm continued to cause him diseom- fort, but on March ?6th he applied for and secured employment with the Bristol Brass company. Before un- dertaking the work, however, he was seized with a sevefe attack of hysteria, was deranged for several hours, dur ing which he was exceedingly violent, and has since gradually developed hysterical condition, such that he has had little use Of the injured arm and is in state bordering upon nervous collapse. He is now totally incapaci- tsted and will be for an unknown period in the future.
 The commissioner finds that there is a direct causal connection between the claimants present condition and the injury. This conclusion the re- spondent attacks and evidence, which l judge to be all that is material, is stated in the commissioners rnling on the motion to correct. At the bearing before the commissioner Dr. Swett testified, and, while his eyi- Jence is not in record, froinF refer cnces to it infer that he stated that, on March 19. 1923, he discharged the claimant as being then well. Dr. Wiedman. competent and reputable neurologist. who was called by the ,espondent, testified as an expert that he did not believe that the claimants present condition could be attributed to the injury; he had new CT. apparently. treated the claimant and very obviously his opinion was largely founded upon Dr. Swett's conclusion above stated; and his con clusion was that if the claimant was we'll when Dr. Swett discharged him, the hysteria must be attributed to what he calls an emotional episode" occurring between that discharge and the outbreak of tho hysteria on March 26th. There was, however, evidence before the commissioner that the claimant suffered pain in the arm after Dr. swett discharged him: and the claimant himself seems not to have shared Dr. Swett's conclusion as to his physical and mental condi- ton, for his wife, who impressed the commissioner by her frankness and sincerity, testified that after getting his job on March 2eth, and agreeing I'd 70 to work the next morning, his condition preyed on his mind because of his conviction that he could not perform the work; and although cross examined on behalf of the respondent,

THAW'S FIGHT TO GET
 FREE TO BE OPPOSED
scontinued from First Page)

York attorney for Harry K. Thaw, full confirmation of reports from Philadelphia that the slayer of Stan ford White. now accused of whipping a Kansas City boy, would seek to have himself declared sane.
 Coyne. the paper adds, plans to con- fer with Thaw this afternoon in Kirk brides asylum in Philadelphia.
 Philadelphia lawyers representing the Thaw family yesterday vigorously denied printed reports that a move to free Thaw was contemplated, and that if declared sane, he would return to New York to face charges of having assaulted Frederick Gump, Jr, son of a Kansas City manufacturer, in 1917, pleading temporary insanity when the alleged offense was committed
 Coyne's connection with the Thaw case dates back to the trial of suit against Thaw for $50,o00 attorneys fees. He successfully defended Thaw and since then has been retained by him as private counsel.
 Philadelphia, Jan. 3.--Former "N'St Sds 6OIuollt SOuI5ti iOt Mrs. William Thaw, denied emphati- caliy yesterday the report from New York to the effect that proceedings will be started in Common Pleas court here within two weeks to have Thaw adjudged legally competent to set him free, and to restore him his personal fortune.
 Judge Gordon said the report was ''an absolute falsehood. without the slightest foundation"
 At the hospital where Thaw is con- fined it was said that nothing was known of any plans to have Thaw set free. Mrs. Thaw is i'll in bed at her home in Pittsburgh, but her house. keeper said she knew nothing of the reported plan.

BY II. Addington Bruce


T T is important always to keep in mind that
] when anybody is injul in an accident
the extent of the hurt done may depend
not alone on the severity Of the accident
itself, but also on circumstances attending OF
following it.
Especially influential for good or i'll is the
attitude Of those called upon to care for vic
tins of accidents.
Without approaching it, they may and fire.
quently do, convey suggestions which act as
starting points for ideas Transforming what
is really slight --~-~ into a serious injury.
1t is no exaggeration to say that words
spoken thOughtlessly at bedside may mean
needlessy prolonged invalidsm.
Nor do physicians themselves invariably
reckon with this possibility as they should.
Take as a typical occurrence the, case Of a
man who has a fall on a sidewalk because
of loose plank. He falls in such way as
to twist his arm under him, whereupon,
through the combined force Of pain and
shock, he loses consciousness
When he comes to- he finds himself amid
strange surroundings, with physician exam
ming him. His arm still pains him severely.
1T is not actually broken" the physician
tells him, but it is badly wrenched. You
will have to give it a good rest. Too bad
that plank was left loose to tri you"
Perhaps becaus Of the injured mans tenn

his mind its possible effects, creates in him
lively sentiments of resentment and of fear.
Taken home, these are accentuated by his
wife's anxious sympathy and her outspoken
indignation against me occupant of the house
in front Of which her husband fell.
ordinarily, rest, linment, and massage
would ere long have restored the injured
arm TO complete usefulness. Because there
has been created in its possessor a lively fear
that he really has been badly hurt, he keeps
his attention so fixed on his wrenched muscles
as TO intensity and prolong the pain in them.
His anger against the offending householder
also enters to play part in retarding
recovery.
Until that anger is assuaged by monetary
compensation, or until the fear-ridden suf-
ferer is by some means persuaded that there
no longer IS anything the matter with his
arm he will remain incapacitated
Yet for this he can not in fairness be
deemed personally responsible. The oIame
rests rather with those who lodged in his
mind ideas cOntributory to the forming Of a
dlsease-pe rpetuating attitude.
And if only because one never can know
how an injured person viii react to unfortu-
nate suggestions, it is imperatively necessary
for physicians. nurses, and relatives to be on
euard against making such suggestions to
the accidentally hurt
Which does not mean, however, any de-
liberate faISifying in the interest Of reassur-

well may be that Moscow is taking a subtle
hand in the several imbroglos and doing
what she can to bellows the fires of revolu-
ton. 1t is the dream of Lenines successors,
as it was his own, to bring about first a
Europe-wide and then a worldwide cata-
cysm of existing governments, with a view
to planting Bolshevisms red flag on the
ruins The Balkans are now the most invit-
ing quarter for such an adventure.
Soviet propaganda alone, however, will not
account for the present turmoils and disinte-
grations; it is, doubtless, a contributing, but
not a controlling factor. Writing from
Sofia to the New York Times, first-hand
observer speaks of the Savage partisanship
that is chronic in Balkan history and goes
on to describe five black-robed women who
followed the bier of former Bulgarian min
lister of state, Peto Petkoff, assassinated last
June "They were the widows of five mfr
dered Bulgarian MISUNDERSTANDING in
1895, an earlier Petkoff seventeen years ago,
Genadieff, Stambuliski, and the latest victim
That Bulgaria has no honopoy in ferocous
partisanship is attested by the royal assassi-
nations in Serbia and the fend;sn vndictive-
ness in recent Greek history
No wonder that unrest prevails where par
tsanship is so desperately no wonder that
Soviet agents find such a field ready for
their sowing. "Therell be war in the Bal
kans," was the saying of Kipliug hero,
which came grimly to pass before this cen
fury was well into its teens. The Allies will
do well if they prevent a repetition.
