CONNECTICUT MONEY
 IN FLORIDA

Man is an inveteratc speCuIator. the desire 10 get something for nothing or to make d big profit seems 10 be q paramount urge in the bosoms Of most specimens of mankind. Just now the center of gravity in the realm of speculation is the fair land of Florida, with Miami the wheel within wheels
 So much money has been flowing from Connecticut to Florida that bankers in some cities of the state have every right to be alarmed. When in addition 10 that, mort gsges are placed upon property with a view to using the usufruct of the mortgage deal as means of speculation in Florida land, the result naturally is ot q character 70 create misgivngs in the wlnIs of those with a mor- conservative bent. Such spectators run a risk Of sustaining a double loss.
 Lawyers from Ila.'Co'd bod New Haven have made "Hiajross" uips 10 Florida; Nutmeg realtors Hkc- wise have made such trips. The lawyers usually go with commis- sions to buy realty for c''erts, and the realtors do anout rlte sqmc. or buy on their own hook tor r'scl1ng later.
 One bank alone - in New Haven -- IS credited with having paid out a million dollars 10 dep2sltors who are interesting themselves IF Flo- rida land. Other banks tbeie and in Hartford have Dc"n hit iu the same way. Il is good to cara. how ever, that this has not been the case in New Britain.
 In the face of such A wholesome speculative market as -xis's In Flo rida 1t is natural 10 wonder what the finish will be. and whether any body is going to lose money. No- body wishes to throw cold water upon such s hot market. although f ought 10 be generally rrslizcd that eventually some people identi- aA1 with such speculation will be

PRESIDENT READY
 10 END VACATION
May Be Back at White House
 Late Next Week

Swampscott, Mass, Sept. 1 (Pl-- President Coolidge is holding him self in readiness to return to Wash ington any time after labor day While he has not determined on a definite date for his departure it is expected that he will be back in the capital by the latter part of next week. He will travel by train.
 The president, who left Wash ington ten weeks ago today, feels that he has been greatly benefited by his vacation here and at his fathers home in Vermont. While he believes Washington is wonder full place the year round so far as weather Is concerned he thinks 1t a good idea to get away for a short time during the hot summer months.
 Despite reports that he and Mrs, Coolidge are planning to return here next summer, the president has given no thought to this possibility. Congress may be in session during the summer months deciding, as it was put today by the presidential spokesman, that it can campaign best in the capital, and this factor might be sufficient to keep the exec utive at the White House.
 Mir. Coolidge has no addresses in contemplation except the one he will deliver probably on October 6, at the American Legion convention in Omaha. He will go direct to and from Omaha without delivering ad-

AGAIN A PLAN TO UNLOCK" ALASKA

So Representative A. M. Free of California, veteran congressional luminary of that state, returned from Alaska with the cheerful in- formation that the government should scrap its $6o, 100000 railroad, which runs from Seward to Fair banks. The railroad Is costing the government more than s2,o0o,o00 a year for maintenance, according 10 MT. Free, and there is no hope of making of 1t a paying proposition In the future.
 Considering that the population of Alaska averages only one person to every nine square mlles--in an area twice the size of Texas--and that its products as yet do not pro- vide much freight possibilities for a railroad the congressman perhaps is right in seeing gloomy possibilities from a financial standpoint. Yet the railroad connects Fairbanks the most important city, (population less than 5000 with the seacoast. We rather think that the people served by the line would be greatly irritated were 1t scraped. A better plan. probably. would be 10 charge rates high enough to "break even" financially, or 10 show a profit, like the privately owned railroads do in the rest of the United States.
 Uncle Sam runs is Alaskan rail- road like he does the post otfice-- not primarily with view to profits, but to serve the people of Alaska. He could operate 1t upon a profit without difficulty by merely charg- ing rates that would produce a profit.
 MT. Frees criticism is not con- structive; what he should have re- ported was that the railroad should be run like a private enterprise, and not like a government railroad.

disappointed. Of course. specuators are like soldiers - 1t Is always the other fellow in arms who Is golns to get hurt.
 The business of selling Florida land. however, has been no new thing, We can remember quite well that firms In the north were trying to sell land on a large scale in Flo- rida IS or 20 years ago, but with indifferent success. Land in Florida did not get in the public eye very much until vast Improvements were under way and planned. Northern tourists who spent part of tho win ter in Florida finally started to mix business with pleasure.
 How long the Hand boom" will last nobody knows. It won't last forever, however. Such things have habit of lattcning out eventually, and the main Idea of spectators seems to be to get in and out of the market before It becomes sta tionary or stabilized" This has been the history of all land booms, and there is nothing to indicate that Florida will be an exception.

BOMBING \ TOWN IN SYRIA

France is having g little trouble in Syria. It has been the sixth re- volt in six years. France is in Syria as d mandatory or the League of Nations, under the so-called Glass A" type of mandates, which recog- nizcs eventual independence for the inhabitants of the supervised area The territory under the French mandate includes an area Of eo,oOo square miles. with a population of about 3,OO0.0oO.
 A dispatch from Paris yesterday stated that General Sarrail, French high commissioner in Syria, report ed that 70 French airplanes had bombed the town of suedia. French military chiefs interpreted the dis patch as meaning the town around the citadel was bombarded, as the French were supposed to be still holding the citadel.
