Congress and the Radio

Now that the radio has made it possible for all
voters interested to listen to the actual words of can
ddates and speakers at election time, we begin to
wonder just how long it will be before the public
is hooked up to Congress.
Some people think this would not be an interesting
show but they are mistaken. There is lot that is
uninteresting about what goes on, that there is
no radio. There is much that does not sound very
thrilling is reported by the correspondents in and
out of the galleries But this is partly because the
Congressional show lacks the actual audience Much
of the time the galleries empty.
But suppose the Senate or the House were hooked
up the thousands who every evening sit and listen
to this or that. Suppose it announced that
Borah was to debate with Jim Reed. 1t is our guess
that the audience would be big and that it would
be pleased
There is much that goes on in Congress that never
is reported The space of newspaper is too limited
And think what it would do to that hoary fraud,
the "leave to print" Instead Of committing an I'M
delivered speech to the Congressional record, the
young and ambitious member would make desper-
ate effort to put his oratory to a real test.
Of course the hours should be changed to accom-
modate the radio audience Like the British parlia-
ment, Congress should meet in the evening. Mem
bers could do their department errand work during
the day, and take some much needed outdoor exer-
cise and then debate and vote on public matters I'M
til 10 or II p m.

The Military Dollar

The economist has way of putting things that
strikes home He deals in terms of dollars and cents
which everybody understands
The philosopher and moralist may invegh against
the waste and tragedy of but when the economist
tells you that SO cents of every taxpayers dollar paid
into the treasury of the United States goes to de-
fray the cost of past to prepare for future
wars he cncheS the argument with compelling facts
Irving Fisher, professor of economics at Yale and
widely known punlicis is authority for the statement
that out of this taxpayers dollar 80 cents goes for
military functions and 81 cents for interest and re-
demption of public debt which for the most part has
been incurred for war purposes.
Out of the remaining one-sixth Uncle Sam has
to provide for all public works. law enforcement, SCI
entiic investigation and civil functions of govern
ment.
The division is entirely out of line with progress
Of civilization which constantly Is attempting to
Supplant force with reason
Professor Fisher aptly declares that the moral
support of the world should be mustered in the inter
ests of peace not only on humanitarian and ethical
grounds but purely dollars and cents Cor sense)

Thunder of The Herd

In this connection, it is only
fair to recall that Magma Charta
was not really conceived as a bill OF
rights, but that its principle object
was to convince the British King
that his powerful mobiles still had
privileges, and that the people we're
given consideration to insure their
support.
Not only on that occasion, but
many times afterward, the people
gained their liberties when those
in authority fell out, when faction
alism split the ruling class, and
when the multitude required con-
cessions for its favor.
The people would still be obliged
to rely on that doubtful and capri
cious game, if modern liberty and
modern life had not made their sup
port more essential for every kind
of enterprise and movement.
Essential as the common herd
might have been because of its
power to wage war in those days
when the arbitrament of arms de-
termined the course of empires, the
fate of races and the survival OF
creeds, it has become ten times as
essential for it's consuming quality
in these days of maSsed wealth, or
ganized production and high
pressure craftsmanship.

Connecticut for G, O, P,

There is some difference of opin-
ion here as to how New Haven will
go in November, but the Republicans
are more optimistic than the DEM
ocrats. That is also true of the
State.
Democratic leaders are ready
enough to predict that Smith will
carry it, but the prophecy breathes
hope, rather than conviction.
Republicans, on the other hand,
forecast a triumph with such naive
trustfulness as makes one hesitate
to call the State doubtful out of
consideration for their feelings.
Defeat not only would leave them
sorrowful, but SHOCKED.
Reverting to a lifelong habit of
guessing the result by striking an
average of all claims, I would say
that Connecticut, will go Repub-
lican in November by a safe, though
not stunning, majority.

4 Question of Principle
And so to bed.

The State Department should not let up until it
has obtained complete satisfaction from France for
her treatment of Harold Horan, Paris CORE
spondent for the Hearst newspapers.
Suddenly set upon at of the business corners
of the French capital the American correspondent
was hustled off and held ncommunicado for more
than seven hours while the secret police subjected
him to nquisition.
1t seems that Koran had sent his newspapers GER
tain details concerning the notorious secret naval
accord between France and England, and France
to phone his Office or get in touch with lawyer
the American embassy, while threatening him with
five years in prison if he did not tell where he got
his information.
This newspaper believes vital principle is in
volved and it is this:
American newspaper correspondents abroad are the
eyes and ears of the American people. 1t is their
duty to report events bearing upon the interests of
the United States They be. and are, of genuine
service to the Nation and all it's interests, to and
including the national defense
And it is distinctly the duty of the American Gov
eminent to see to 1t that the legitimate rights Of these
reporters are not :nfringed upon.
If American correspondents abroad can be spirited
away and arbitrarily subjected to species Of torture
which went out of style with the Middle Ages and the
guilty governments get away with it, the useful
to terrorize them into being a mere echo Of what
foreign Offices abroad want them to say instead of
the independent observers they are supposed to be-

Who Deserves Fame2

New Haven is the home of United
States Senator Bingham, Repre-
sentative Tilson and the Democratic
candidate for Governor, Charles G.
Morris, and recently has become the
home of John Coolidge. While justly
proud of such distinctions, the city
talks more about the fact that it once
was the home of Eli Whitney, in
ventor Of the cotton gin; Whitney
Blake, inventor of the stone crusher;
Charles Goodyear, discoverer of vul-
canized rubber; Thomas Sanford,
inventor of the PHOSPHORUS match;
Chauncey Jerome, first to make
clocks with standardized metal parts
and Henry S. Parmelee, originator
Of the automatic sprinkler.
Say what you will, but it requires
time to show who, or what really is
entitled to fame.

Peace Hath Her Victories

In 1917, the year the United States Government
entered the World War; it also entered another kind
of war.
This latter, in cooperation with States, to
stamp out tuberculosis among cattle, and thereby to
lessen the danger of that disease among our chill
dren as we'll as others who milk
This war OF peace has been carried on
mittingly SINCE and today it is announced that the
task of testing and rendering free from tubercu-
loss the cattle OF one whole State-North Carolina
has been accomplished with several other States
nearing the 100 per cent mark
More than 100000 cattle, including half of
those in the dairy areas, have been tested. The
percentage of infected cattle in the whole country
has dropped from four to two.
1t is costing the Government about 100000 a
year, or something like an hours expenses during
the height of the World War.

quickly, is responsible for chapping.
The lack of moisture makes the
skin inelastic, brittle and more
easily attacked by irritating sub
stances, such as occur in dish
water and in some soaps. When
the fat secreted by the skin glands
is present in abundance, these ir-
ritants cannot attack it.
Soaps serve to dissolve such fats
and to take them away from the
surface. When the hands are badly
chapped, soap and water should be
used in great moderation, and wher
they are used, the hands should
be dried Immediately after with a
soft towel.
Since the fat of the skin is less
ened, and since this is one Of the
causes of the chapping, the de-
ficiency of fat may be supplied py

Reason

IT'S a great thing for the Ameri-
Il can Legion to hold its national
convention in Texas, enabling the
sons of those who followed Grant
and Lee to cover the last bitterness
of the Civil War with the laurels OF
a common glory.
Let Europeans have what ALI
ances they will, Uncle Sam asks
only-the eternal alliance Of the
North and South.
And we were glad to see the Le-
gionaires give General Pershing a
royal welcome.
The last war being an impersonal
affair. no beloved heroes issued
from it, as from former conflicts,
where the privates saw their COM
manders in the midst of it, but the
days have gone since the armistice
have revealed Pershing as mighty
personality Of the great conflict.
Indeed, many Europeans said he
would have been the commander
in-chief of the Allies had the war
gone another year.

Prohibition MOI Enough

Those issues which have stirred
other sections of the country so
deeply do not seem to be cutting
much of a figure in Connecticut.
Water power and farm relief strike
no responsive chord, while it is i'm
possible to rake up a good, whole
sole whisper.
Prohibition, Of course, has it's
usual appeal. Most everybody be-
lieves the State would go wet if it
were given the chance to vote
squarely on the question, and that
if this were the sole issue, or if
people we're convinced that Gov
ernor Smith could do what he wants
to, the Democrats might carry it..
Here, as in most other sections of the
country, realization that a two
thirds vote in Congress and a three
fourths majority of the States are
required to bring about genuine
modification, influences many peo-
pie to disregard prohibition as a
paramount, or even an important
issue.

northern Italy At 30 he became professor at the
University of Reggie, reviving microbe hunting and

Spallanzani died in 1899, and again microbe hunt

until twenty-three years later. 1t in 1922 that
Louis Pasteur was born.

regarded the study of mvcrobes having any rela-

Microbes were scientific curiosity. 1t inter
estng to know that they existed and what they looked
like and how big they and so on. But the ques-

popular phrase, would have been What of it,"
Well, Pasteur was to that for the
world.
1t is well for us to keep this in mind.
Occasionally we hear of some complicated and in
tricate piece Of scientific investigation which to
bear relation to the affairs of the world.
We tempted to ask What of is?'
No one knows the answer. There may be for
100 years On the other hand, it may turn out the
day after tomorrow that that particular experiment
has turned up something Of vital to the whole
world.
