ROAD AID SYSTEM
IN CONNECTICUT

The state plan to aid towns in the
creation Of improved dirt or gravel
roads on a $3.50 basis, passed by
the lower house of the General As
sombly yesterday, is curious,v in
principle like the $3.50 highway
aid plan OF the federal government.
The appropriation OF S2.ooo.oo0
would be disbursed TO the towns
no more than $4,000 TO any mimic
ipaIity in any year-proGided the
towns appropriate dollar for dollar
10 the sum obtained by the state.
Substitute the federal government
for the state. and the states for the
towns, aud no discernible differ
cnce is apparent.
Also, there is no difference in
how the two plans work The towns
Of the state will be receiving appro-
priations from the taxes paid by
the cities; lust like the sparsely
populated states get fat highway
funds from the federal government.
II the heavy taX-producing states Of
the east are justified in directing TO
the payment of federal highway
funds TO the western states, then
the cities of Connecticut are justi-
fed in ohjecting to the effect of the
House bill Just passed.
There are countless citizens in
Connecticut. however, and not
few newspapers, which have con-
sistently opposed the federal high
way aid system. chiefly because-as
they claimed-the cast furnished
the money and the west got the
bulk OF the federal roads. These are
at liberty TO protest against i'm
planting a replica OF the system in
Connecticut but We are not likely
to see many such protests regis
tered.
The reason is the dirt roads of
the state will be improved, or made
passable. in no other manner. The
towns cannot foot the entire bill
and they do not exclusively use the
highways.
The same contention, however,
holds good in the states where wide
spaces and sparse population is the
rule. These, too, cannot build ade-
quate roads in any other way than
through federal aid and they them
selves are not the exclusive users of
the highways.

THE HARVARD CONVICTIONS

Progress of sort evidently is
being shown in cultured Cambridge.
whore Harvard students upon scv-
erai occasions have been faced with
the apparent necessity of taking is

with such effect. that 80 We're ar

Of these, as the public prints ban

guilty and some Of them sentenced

the boys at Harvard usually have
dads who are able and willing to
pay for a complete college educa-
ton regardless Of supplementary eX-
penscs, the lads have appealed in
the usual way hoping that some
higher court will be more lenient
with their youthful excresences.
The time apparently is coming
when the boys bent upon acquiring
an education upon the Packard
model will have to be careful how
they handle the police. Cambridge
has had more than one instance Of

JERRY TARBOT

We have no brief for Jerry Tar
bot. who recently was a visitor in
this city and accorded some of that
hospitality for which New Britain is
justified in taking pride His ere
dontials appeared to satisfy those
he met in this city. Now that he
is faced with various charges in
Washington it will be we'll to re-
serve Judgment until they are prov
en- or disproven.
\ man who claims to have been
incapacitated for life as a result Of
serving his country during the war
naturally eNcites sympathy wherever
he may call. There are plenty Of
honest men who have been thus
MANNED and who are entirely justi-
fled in expecting the quintessence
OF consideration by a grateful gov
ernmcnt. Nobody wishes them to
suffer unnecessarily. everyone is
willing that they be properly taken
care Of, regardless of the expense.
1t may be. of course. that OCCASION
ally some person who is not en-
titled to such consideration horns
his way into the public graces: as
a rule, he is found out.
But this isn't saying a thing one
way or the other in the case of Tar
bot. When in the city he showed
scars which satisfied those with
whom he came into contact that
they were inflicted by weapons Of
war. He had been accepted as
bona fide war casualty in other
reasonably o. X. New Britain with
right treated him as an unfortunate
victim of the late unpleasantness;
there was no valid reason to disbe-
lieve his story.
Now he is confronted with charges
in Washington, ranging the Gamut
from having been draft dodger to
that of being a hoax and fraud.
If the Department of Justice is
wrong in its claims Tarbot should
have no difficulty in proving they
are unfoundcd. If he is proven
guilty OF the charges he probably
will be punished.
