THE MAYOR TAKES HOLD

Today Mayor Paoncssa took of flee, amid the customary ceremonies, the usual felicitations. the routine good wishes. Everybody hopes new mayor will be a grand succcss-ex- cept tho comparatively few politi- clans who happen to be on the op- posite side of the political wall and who. while not saying much at the beginning of new administration. hope and pray that the incumbent may make as many mistakes as pos sible in tho shortest possible time. Mayor Paonessa went through this twice before. however. and if prac- tice counts for anything, he ought to be able to sidestep the little er- TOTS that dog every administration as well as If not better than almost anyone else. Anyway. he now is in office, boss of all he surveys: and he has . good eye and keen ears.
 As the mayor takes hold of the steering wheel he Is confronted with the usual crop of problems that have faced every administration in the past. Az the city grows larger its pYoblems also grow. and to solve some of them will cost more money than ordinarily. It is a time for pru- dencs and care. Almost anyone could list . total of schemes which in the aggregate would cause the tax rate to turn upwards with tho speed of | speculative stock manipulated by | bull pool. So far the city has been able to confine it's activities to discussion only: possibly the period of discussion of these sewage, wa ter. incinerator and other schemes will continue for few years longer. Ultimately as they say. something will have to be done about them; but patience will or ought 10 pay dividends because of the probability that . more careful scrutiny of all the projects will yield better con- cluAons.
 All of which docs not mean, Of course, that the city should stand still while the discussion Of Wcighty matters progresses for a few years The city cannot afford to stand still and will not It did not stand still during the two previous terms of Mayor Paonessa and did not do SC under the Weld administration. The city has begun the most necessary improvements, the building Of real schools; and though the neccs.sa rS program Is not finished completely we have something worth while tc show for the outlays made The cit! has progressed i'll other directions not sensationslly. but every little hi' helps. It isn't the little improve
 ments that worry civic officials however: these materializo durini every administration. It is the larg' projects that require derp attention and the most careful investigation Mayor Paoncssa. "e feel confident Is not inclined to go forward withou knowing just where he IS going.
 All good citizens hope the mayor administration will be successful from every standpoint. that the poll tics indulged in by all wings, faction and parties be minimum. and tha there be few mistakes and muCl yond lpl-

"RuITNG," OR "MGRGI<G'
 TIFF. NEW HAVEN

The annual stockholders meeting of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad is scheduled to take place tomorrow. Hagop BoEi- gian, rug importer. of Boston no doubt will he there. The Boston gentleman has not missed an annual meeting for years. What Samuel Sahlotsky is to the New Britain Common Council this man Bogigian Is to the New Haven railroad. The routine ratification of financial mat ters which distinguish the stock holders gatherings would he dry reading indeed were it not for Mir. Bogigian, whose pointed remarks and acid questions usually cause the officials much irritation. Nothing would suit the rug importer more than to put the entire New Haven official management on a witness stand under oath and then spend a week firing questions at them.
 We wish him well. In all organiza- lions somebody must play the role of human monkey wrench. and so long as the railroads stockholders know more about the line on account of Mir. Bogigian's artful questioninGs the better it is for the railroad, re- gardlcss of how the officials hate to sec a too -inquisitlve person mar the proceedings.
 In back Of the minds Of New Haven stockholders is the possibility of a merger with the Pennsylvania railroad. The question may not even he brought up at the annual meeting | but 1t is what many Of them arc | thinking bout. The Hartford Times recently gave the opinion that the ! Pennsylvania could not gobble IT the company without dispossessina it's stockholders, and that is out o' the question. Which is perfectly true perhaps; but mergers do not ncces sarly imply gobbling up all of tho stock, or even 51 per cent of it Some mergers in the past have beeI put through on the leasing princi pie, the larger line guaranteeing ; stated return to the other as con sideration for taking it under it wings So far the Pennsylvania i conceded to own only onc-tcnth tn
 number of New Haven shares ncedc, for control, and it is unlikely that i could get the remainder withol paying a recklessly high price, whicl it proba bly, would not do. Controllin
 the property through ownership 0
 51 per cent of the shares, therefore
 is quite out of the question. W

ninety per cent of all sickness comes

MILLIONS Will
BE SPENT FOR
YULETIDE TOYS
Young America Getting
Ready for Annual DeIuge
of Gifts.
BY HARRY w. FRANTZ

WASHINGTON, Noe. Is. - On
Christmas morning the young
American girl will be fondling ten
million dollars worth of dolls while
the American small boy will be pre-
pairing to wreck about fifteen million
dollars of rolling -stock in the form
of toy automobiles, airplanes,
wagons and trains.
American worship of Santa Claus
makes toy production one of the
country'S typical big businesses, sus-
ceptible of measurement in the large
round numbers which delight the
government scientist.
Gain in Production
Production in the United States,
according to the last bureau of CEN
sus compilation available, amounted
to about $75,0o0,0O0 annually, of
which dolls alone accounted for
nearly twelve million dollars, with
one and one-half million extra for
the miniature wardrobe, and nearly
three million for her carriages and
carts.
The present year probably has
witnessed an increase in this pro-
duction.
Ordinarily, the domestic toy mills
are incapable of meeting the re-
Quirements of the American toy
trade, and there is heavy annual
importation from Germany and
Japan.
Imports from Germany amount
to four b, six million dollars an
nually and rom Japan three to
four million; Czechoslovakia, France
and England ship lesser quantities.
Germany provides large quanti-
ties of Christmas tree ornaments,
wooden toys, and toy musical in
strumentS; Japan sends paper and
celluloid toys.
The contribution of American in
duStry to the children'S merry
Christmas consists largely of toys
of mechanical or educational ma
ture.
Among the former are toy air.
planes, locomotives, power sta
tions, signal cars, and spring oper-
ated Robots in miniature.
Educational toys include building
blocks, construction sets, drawing
and painting sets, and wax model
ing outfits.
