Heavy Commercial Vehicles May
 Be Required to Keep Away From Central Park Zone
PAONESSA AND C0NLON
 IN CONFERENCE TODAY
Traffic Passing Through New Brit ain May Be Routed Through Lin- coin, Myrtle and Stanley Streets Unless Deliveries Are To Be Made Tn Prescribed Area

A movement was started today tc legislate heavy motor trucks off the streets in the center of the city by requiring drivers to use the outskirts only those trucks having cargoes for delivery along the streets being al- lowed to come through.
 Chairman Frank L. Conlon of the board of public works is sponsor of the proposed ordinance. He has been promised the cooperation of Mayor A. Nj. Paonessa's office, and the police commission, ordinance committee and city engineer will be called in to discuss the new plan.
 Heavy trucks come through West Main street in large numbers. Traf- tic from Bristol and Waterbury as well as from plants in the west end manufacturing road building mate rial and trap rock add to the con gestion and complaints have been made of traffic delays. From the south end of the town brick trucks come and many go by way of Main street Other trucks coming from Hartford enter the city by way of East Main street.
 Chairman Conlon believes this form of traffic can be handled through g system of detour. the cars being required to come from the west by way of Myrtle street, or if south bound, through Lincoln street or some other tributary of West Main street.
 Traffic from the south would be sent through Stanley street and sim liar reroutlng of the Hartford traffic could be worked out successfully. the officials who have discussed the plan believe.
 The Conlon ordinance contem- plates the completltion of work or Myrtle street and the wideTtns nt Stanley street. the former now i'll process and the latter soon 10 be recommended 10 the common coun- ell for action.

TELLS VIEWPOINT
 0F OTHER POWERS WlGamstoWn Speaker Wants
 Nations Understood CITES CASE OF AMERICA
pr. Coolidge Says Refusal to Join League Has Been Misconstrued- Maurice Holds Armament Confer enOes.

WilliamstoWn. Mass. July 30 GF)- It is Of the utmost importance to the world that the American public should come to understand the feel ing of foreign nations, Professor Archibald Cary Coolidge said today at the institute Of politics general conference on the recent foreign policy of the United States
 Tt Is doubtful whether this would make for the happiness of the world, but In these days of democratic ruls and open diplomacy 1t is not enough for individuals to understand each other Professor Coolidge said Whole nations must do 1t. xx If we come to be the most disliked of people In the world 1t may not be our fault, but we should admit that it will not be unnatural.
 LNnSOllS r UT ulSllke
 Refusal of this country to admit any but small part of the millions desiring to immigrate here has en- sendered intense disappointment abroad. As regards war debts, the United States should not take it hard if some of the creditor nations should insist on postponing payment until their own dues are collected. tt Is hard to condemn those Euro peans who saw in Americas refusal to join the league of nations a cause for many of Europe's postwar dif- faculties and pains. These are oce in no small measure, they 6eneve, to the fact that America has taken her hand from the plough and turned her back on the league in whose formation her representative played the foremost part.
 We have 8 right 10 build as large a fleet as that of Great Britain and can afford one better, but do we need 1t as much? Is it nothing that Britain has to recognize for the first time that she no longer rules the waves? This country should sym pathize with Frances heavy pay ments for armaments In view of her danger from invasion, and should re- member what a grievous blow our new immigration laws are to the Italians. There might be an excuse for Japan's over sensitiveness over Japanese exclusion from these shores"
 Armament Discussion
 Sir Frederick Maurice of London, leading his round table on the limitation of armaments, said the British army had been diminished from 250,00o in 1918 to 211,o00 to- day, but the increase of the air force from small number to S4,O00 ac- counted in part for the relatively slight decrease from pre-war strength. The present reserves were only S0,00o. he said, and the active forces 10000.
 The speaker gave the strength of the Russian army as about 750, ,000, but badly equipped and with poor transportation facilities. He said Poland possessed formidable army of 220,o00 in two year service and reserve of from 6oo,OOo to 100000 men.

Mrs. Bowen of Berkeley Killed in Basel--Youth
 Says it Was Accident

Basel. Switzerland, July 30 L4D - A sixteen year old boy has been ar- rested and charged with killing Mrs. Mary Levitt Bowen of Berkeley, California, who was found dead in a park near here yesterday. Police say he confessed but said he shot Mrs. Bowen accidentally.
 Mir, Bowen has cahled from Berkeley that the body of hts wife be cremated and the ashes shipped home.
 Mrs. Bowen had arrived here a few days ago to attend lectures in the Basel university. She took a stroll early yesterday morning in the NoodlaWn of a park about five miles outside the city where her body was found. Marks upon the ground indicated she had crawled about 150 feet after being shot be- fore she collapsed, and died.
 Berne, Switzerland. July 80 iP- The woman who was found dea I with a wound through the heart in a suburb of Basic yesterday has been definitely identified as Mary Levitt Bowen of Berkeley, Cal. She ar rived in Basic only two days pre- viously.
 The wound on the body was made either by revolver or knife and the authorities hold the belief that she was murdered.
 Although the police have made every effort 10 solve the mystery. even sending bloodhounds in earch of possible assasssins. they have been unsuccessful.
 The body was found 50 yards from the boundary of the Cantons Of Soleure and Basic. It was q coun- try road between Gothcanum temple and the ruins of Dornach castle. After an examination it was estab- liShed that the wound was caused by a firearm from a distance. the shot entering the neck and then pene- tratlng the breast. The police dogs seemed to lead the searching party towards the castle ruins.

VICTORY

~WICTORY is what we are inter
ested in" wise man of the
world recently said. Victory for the
individual over the odds that beset
him. There are all kinds-sickness,
lack of education, opportunity or
money, environment, bad habits, alb
surd weaknesses, every sort of men
tai, physical and spiritual barrier Of
the Pilgrims Progress And victory
is gained pretty largely by faith, by
courage, by determination, by single
ness Of purpose. One can gain the
mastery over poverty and failure
and sin and disease even if one has
faith and courage-and especially if
one has youth.
Hartley had been i'll for a long
time, seriously i'll, too.
"He could get WE'LL" the doctor
said, eff he only would. He's at the
point where the slightest impact
would push him either way. He's

XTENNER had been brought up in a
country town; he had been as far
east as Columbus, Ohio, to football
game and had seen Kansas City with
his father at an Elk'S convention. He
was eighteen and therefore very wise
He belonged to the Presbyterian
church, and was. therefore, very good.
dis father was president of the local
bank and a member of the local
school board and owned a seven
passenger limousine Yenner was,
therefore, person of some signif-
catce. And being wise and good and
important, what he had TO say on
the subject of alcoholic beverages
should be given considerable weight.
Take 1t from me-" he said to
Brown, yoGng fellow from Omaha
not so experienced as himself, "the
fellow who hasn't been jagged a few
times loses a lot. It's an experience.
1t gives one a different view of life;
1t brOadens a man."
But Brown was narrow. He thought
that it was illegal, he was sure that
1t was dangerous, and he suggested
that the associations of drinking were
generally, low and vulgar and de-
basing.
"The trouble with you, old chap"
Venner said, 'is that you're a dead
one; you should have lived with the
Puritans. I'm religious all right. but
l believe it does one good to SET a
little of life. I've been drunk three
times lately and it's done me good"
But Venner got hold of the wrong
kind of liquor finally, and got into
Jail and lost his job and nearly lost
his life.
My friend the sheriff is trying to
clean up the town and make 1t
decent place In which to bring up
young men. Naturally he meets with
considerable opposition and precious
little help. He plays what is called in
sporting circles "a lone hand" Not
long ago he got into a tete-a-tete
with the king bootlegger in town who
also is a wise man and who Incl
dentally has two growing boys of his
own. This same bOotlegger has been
as far east as Berlin and as far west
as Yokohama, and has been in Jail
any number of times. and he is there
fore perhaps as broad and as wise as
Venner.
''I'm agin the Volstead act" he said
to the sheriff, '7and everyone that sup
ports it. I'm avs wet as the Pacific
ocean and I'm goin' to fight for my
individual rights and drink If and
when 1 blank please"
And your boys?" the sheriff asked.
"Well, when it comes to me boys,
Mr.. Sheriff, then I know it's different.
l don't want me boys to drink.
want them to lead clean life, and
keep away from booze, and get an
education. It's made me nothing but
a id old bum. There's nothing to
it. There amt any experience in it
that is worth a curse, and 1t leaves
you with sour stomach and an ach-
ing head and a bad taste in your
mouth, and a lot of rotten friends.
I'm hopeless. I'll keep on fightin' the
law. But yer right, Mr.. Sheriff. Go
ahead and clean up the town, and
save the boys. Tell 'em for me there's
nothing in it. And-and, God bless
ye."
And this is true story of two
wise men.
