States Attorneys In Conference Relative to Governors ln- tention Affecting Offices
Jackson Will Be Governed By Atti.
 tude of Mir. Se&ris

The determination of Governor Trumbull to have all county detee- tives become members of the state police, as evidenced by his letter to States Attorney Charles E. Searis, printed in The Patriot last week, Is apparently not meeting the united ap- proval of the states attorneys and the detectives. It appears that eontro- versy has arisen and that there IS to be opposition to the governors rul- ing that in order to have an appoint ment by a states attorney ratified the appointee must make application to become a member of the state po- lice force.
 The name of William F. Jackson, who has held the position of county investigator since the position was created was sent to the governor before the governors attitude had reached by the governor.
 At present it appears that not one of the five county detectives vii make application to join the state. police or otherwise recognize the decision reached by the Governor.
 Detective Jackson Mum
 County Investigator Jackson, when questioned recently in Willimantic as to whether or not he had presented his name for membership in the state police. refused to talk, except to say that he would abide by the decision of the states attorney
 Investigator Jackson has been con neeted with detective work for twen- ty-one years. He was one of the or iginal nine members of the state po- lice department, becoming a member in 1904 when Thomas F. Egan was superintendent. Jackson resigned in 1917 to become investigator con nected with the office of the late Hadlai A Hull of New London Coun- ty. A few years ago Jackson was ap- pointed investigator for the Windham county superior court under States Attorney Charles F.. Searls and later resigned his New London position.

THIS PAYS BETTER THAN
 DIRT FARMING

If Arthur w. Cutten, livestock fancicr and dirt farmer" of Du- Page county, Illinois, had lost all he had by spcculating in wheat, his ncighbors would have referred to him as a fool. As it is he has made" more than s12,000,000 up to date and before his present operations in the wheat pit are over is expected to "clean up" sSO,O00,- 900.
 Today he is hailed as the king of traders"
 But all he did was 10 '"guess right" Eight months ago he opined here would be a world grain short age and planked down his available funds upon the prediction. Friends believed him wrong.
 Maybe there was time when Mir. Cutten, a dirt farmer" had his ideas about wheat spectators, and those ideas probably were no diff ferent from those held by other dirt farmers. By this time he has changed his tune; that little $12,- O60,000 makes a difference.

ON THE DEATH OF REV. PATRICK DAILY

Rev. Patrick Daily pastor of St. Josephs church. whose death oc- cured this mornln5 was a foe of modern innovations so far as they affected social and family life. His uttcranccs from the pulpit left no doubt in the minds of his parishion- CTS concerning his views. He ire qucntly attacked twentieth century manners as threatening the disinte- graion of our social order and spoke strongly against present day prac- tices which cause the loosening of family ties A clergyman of the old school, he made no attempts to conceal his dislikcs nor did he offer any apologies for them.
 AS pastor of St. Josephs, he had the love and confidence of his flock. Those who were intimate with him enjoyed his mpanlonShip and his ready flow of native wit He was in tensely sincere in his opinions and stood as a bulwark against the en- croachments of materialism and the breaking down of the spiritual side of mai. fearing and God-lov- ing, he took his stand on the side of right as he saw it, and remained immovably there.

SENATE REELS FROM RTOM BY HUGHES

The Senate received blow un- der the belt when the statement of Secretary Hughes regarding the Paris pact on separations was sent to the upper house by President Coolidge.
 The agreement was negotiated, 1t was claimed under the Hong recog- nized authority" of the President to arrange for payment of claims to the United states and its citizens according to the Hughes statement The Boxer indemnity from China to the United States was cited as an example.
 The United States is not bound to help enforce inc terms of the agreement. the Hughes statement said This is the point that the Sen ate has been worrying about, 'FoI- eirn cnlanglemcnts" are as odiouS to inc Senate as a nightmare is to a sound sleeper.
 In other words, We receive our ? IA percent or the annuities paid under The settlement and If for any reason there is P failure by Ger many 10 pay the roparations, and we do not get our percentage, then we are not obligated to enter into any nlap 10 force Germany to meet the payments due,
 Thus we have our hands out stretched. but have a hands off pol icy.
 Mr. Hughes announced to the country in the middle of January that no "entanglcmcnts" were hound into the Paris agreement President Coolidge gave his full consent to the statement. But the senate was not satisfied.

 The board of health and Dr, Welch emphasized in a statement that 1,t00,0oO units of serum due in Nenana Friday from Seattle should be divided and coo. 900 units be sent on by airplane and the balance by regular mail schedule Dr. Welch said that if his program was ad- hered to a regular supply of serum would be assured the city until the opening of the navigation season in the spring. Conditions are favor able here for flying.
 "If the people of Nome are com pelled to wait until Governor Bone can make up his mind that condi- tions are really serious and condi- tions warrant sending serum by air- plane, we might as well constitute the governor the head of Nome's health board. administering orders by long distance government, which may be likened to the distance be- tween Seattle and New York not by railroad connection but by dog team service across the continent" May or Maynard informed the health board.
