mPARk PROPAGANDA"

Reference having been made to the fact that there has been park propaganda" in the city we feel like asking the mayor how he feels about the soft impeachment. The mayor has been a champion of parks ever since he got into politics and has achieved much to which he and his friends can point to with pride. We at all times have done as much as We could to assist in this cause and intend 10 continue.
 The latest "propaganda' for bet ter park facilities come from the fifth ward. We have repeatedly re- marked that the fifth ward was en- titled to better park facilities, includ- ing a swimming pool. The children in the ward, we think, have some rights.
 No ono, we fancy. can maintain popularty with fifth-and sixth ward voters by talking about park propaganda" and suggesting there be no more of it.
 The fact is there hasn't been enough of it, otherwise the fifth ward would have had what it is en- titled 10 long before this.

MEXICO SEEMS WILLING
 TO CONSERVE OIL

What is happening in Mexico is that the congress seems but slight Iy impressed with the contentious Of American oil concessionaires regard ing the effect Of the proposed new economic laws upon the future of the oil industry.
 The labor laws and other r"guia- tory measures. the government was advised by American oil men, would cause such an increase in the cost of producing Mexican oil that 1t could not compete with other oil in inc American market, notably oil from Venezuela and Colombia.
 The Mcxcans had an answer ready. II can be cpitomized in' What of it?" Right now, they re- piled, the Mexican oil industry is not marvel of prosperity and scarcely anyone is suffering, Besides 30 runs the Mexican argument, II ought to be good for the American

ZONING, BUSINESS AND VALUES

One observer states that iNde- pendent merchants are being injured by chain stores.
 Another says there is surplus of store sites throughout the city. that some of them are empty, and that the situation is sad all around.
 Another says there should be less zoning against business establish ments, and their construction in sec tions now restricted would enhance property values.
 Another says that one of the ob- jects of zoning is to prevent trade from secping into restricted areas and thus depressing property values.
 Anothcr-perhaps an independent neighhorhood dcaler-hints that if zoning restrictions are let down and more store sites pop up in his neigh borhood some chain concern might rent one Of them; or perhaps several chains.
 And so it goes. Everybody has a fine idea about what to do and all believe they are right
 City Hall meanwhile watches it's step. That's where the responsibility lies. A false step amidst the general babel Of voices would lead to more trouble rather than less.

And further, Mexico is willing to conserve its oil re- sources. there being no need to ex- haust it in this or the next de- raGe, Maybe, one Mexican leader said, Mexican oil would bring bet ter price after the Americans have exhausted more of the supply na- ture placed within her borders
 IL strikes us that the Mexican argument in this oil discussion is sound. We have been hearing dis cussions on this 9ide of the Rio Grande about conservation but the oil companies. with government en- couragement, fail to practice it.

perhaps, that the money spent at home runs into much larger figures than the sums spent abroad.
 More tourist money is spent in New England alone than the dis bursement of American money in some of the European nations. And New England could get twice what it earns from this source if it push ed it's summer advantages to better effect elsewhere.
 In many parts of rural New Eng land-in Vermont. New Hampshire. northern Maine and parts of Massa- chusetts-the tourist industry has come to be as important as any other It is growing yearly. Con- necticut gets less than fair share of it because most tourists simply pass through this state.

A HISTORIC DISCU SSION
 MAN TO MAN

When the historians of the future write of the present time they will devote no small space to the meet Ing of President Hoover and Premier Macdonald, to their intimate discus sions, and 10 the effect upon the policy of two great nations and their influence upon others which that meeting possessed.
 AS man 70 man they spoke; but their hopes were for the world
 It is agreed by all students of in ternational affairs that with the two English speaking nations joined in a common purpose-not through an alliance or pact, but through mutual agreement and understand ing-the peace of the world, and ultimately universal prosperity, is likely 10 be attained, This and much more.
 The British Premier is not only a man Of ideals but one Of action. He could have remained in London and through diplomatic channels at tempted to that which guides his endeavors in Washington. But that would have failed to impress the re- mainder of mankind a tenth as forcefully as q special trip across the ocean for the purpose, Just as the dash of Ambassador Dawes 10 Scot land a short time ago focused the at tention of the world upon it's mean ing, so the visit Of the Premier ir the United States Of itself informs the world that important discussions are under way And tho world listen, as never before.

EMPTY TENEMENTS AND HOW
 TO FILL THEM

Property owners in the city who are complaining of hard luck be- cause there are too many empty tenemcnts, with a consequent re- auction in rent money and value Of the properties, have much to think about. One of the points that to our knowledge has not been discussed is that more of the tencments would be filled if the city had obtained one or two additional sizeable factories in the past few years.
 The Chambers of Commerce in many cities endeavOr to secure new industries in the belief that these benefit everybody, including the tenement owners. Success does not attend all efforts to encourage new industries to settle in community, but it probably does in a fair aver age of cases.
 The suppositiOn that the city mas enough industries seems to prevail hercabouts. Everybody surely doesn't agree with that notion, especially the merchants and owners Of tene- ments and apartments
 The time is propitous we think, !
 for a spirited attempt to add to the industrial resources of the city, We have never known Of a merchant who felt there were too many or enough industries in the city. and wo feel sure the owners Of empty ! apartment houses and tenements are of the same opinion
 The addition of one or two plants in the city would be Of more i'm portHnco than the attempt 10 de crease assessments on any kind of
 property. The former woujd make
 the latter unnecessary.

GREETING INDIAN SUMMER

And nature IS mixing other tints upon it's broad canvas, all done with the lavish hand Which be- tokens long experience and unex- ampled skill, The air is taking on q bite, and on some days light over coats arc not unpleasant.

All of which left the city dweller but mildly interested, He didn't get into the country much.

The average electric radio set. it Is said, consumes the equivalent of the energy required 10 burn a 60- watt incandescent lamp. Dynamic speakers consume 10 watts; so that an electric Set with a dynamic speaker consumes 70 watts of power. All of which is an increase in cur rent use sufficient to suggest that the electric companies keep watchful eye on their transformers, so that electrical interference with radio re- ception is null and void.

Relief from Gas Stomach Pains
 Dizziness

The doctors tell us that 90 per cent of all sickness is due to stom- ach and bowel troubles. You can't be well if your digestion is bad; you are likely to get sick unless you relish food and digest it properly.
 Tanlac has a wonderful record as relief from digestive troubles, even those of years standing.
 Mir. Alexis Caya, 546 Hunt St., Woonsocket, R. l., says: q was in ruch bad health I couldn't work for a year. l decided to try Tanlac. Now I've gained 30 lbs., my yellow skin has cleared, constipation over- come and appetite returned"
 If you suffer from gas, pains in the stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea, constipation, or torpid liver; if you have no appetite, can't sleep and are nervous and all run down, you need Tanlac. It is good, pure medicine, made of roots, herbs and barks. Get bottle from your druggist today. Money back if it doesn't help you.

l.. !. TOURIST MONEY

We import four billions of dollars worth Of goods every year--includ- ing raw products and things we can not grow ourselVcs-and export $500, GOO, ,000 in tourist money The importations come from all corners Of the globe; the tourist money mostly goes to half a dozen nations, to wit:
 Canada, s23Iooo,oOO; France, Sl90, ,00o; United Kingdom, s4o,7SS.ooo; Italy, s31,25o,oOo; Ger many, s200Oo,00o; Switzerland, s15,- GOO.
 The sums are probably higher; but the foregoing represent what Dr. Ray Hall, of the L. s. Department of Commerce, was able to trace with some degree of dehnitiveness.
 This money represents what the foreigners receive for providing us with a good time. The figures run into large amounts and look impres- sive.
 But they do not represent a tenth of what Americans spend fol q good time right in their own coun, try. For one person who takes a "trip 10 Europe" there are 50 who spend their VacatiOns-and money in the United States, Strange to say it is harder to run down the aCtua amounts spent by Americans in their own country while bent on vacations than it is to calculate the amounts spent abroad, This is more evidence

 Walter and his little sister. Alice, had been playing all afternoon. They played much the same game. since they were eight-year old twins. Notwithstanding this fact, Walter discovered he was loser by fifty dollars.
 This made the little fellow real angry and he spoke to his sister about it and tried to reason with her about the fifty dollars, but she ran crying to her mother and told her that Walter had called her "a simple little dementin praecox.'
 There. there" said her mother. boys will be boys, and you must brother. But l do wish you children would stay out of the gin. There isn't going to be a thing left for dinner. Run along and play now, and don't bother mother any more.' So Alice ran away, like her mother said, and they didn't catch her until she got to Cincinnati.
 Little Walter felt so sad because he had lost his little sister and he remembered all the mean things he might have said to her. and had neglected, that he broke open her bank and took her money, so that if she were dead he coluld send some flowers to the funeral.
 But then next day his little sister came back and he did not have tc send flowers after all. and he felt so glad that he let Alice have his rife to shoot at the tires of pass ing automobiles and the children went to bed that night happy once morel

SYMPHONIC ETHERlZING

This is not a radio review, but
 nevertheless, yesterday was re, markablc for ether performances | Those who cared 10 listen if at home
 had opportunities to hear three sym phonics complete, to wit: The
 Tschaikowsky Fourth by Roxys or
 chestra at D. m, the Beethoven Third by the New York Philhar-
 monic at 3, and the Mozart G minor
 by the Philadelphia Orchestra at 5:30.
 Announcements: Stokowsli stated
 that at the next broadcast of the
 Philadelphians he would play "the
 greatest work of modern times, ! Stravinski's "Sacre du Printemps.'
 Damrosch, who has not yet begun i his symphonic hour, announces he
 will play complete symphonies this year, instead of excerpts as former i ly.
 There are many musical people who disdainfully remark that there is too much jazz and low stuff over the radio to suit their palate. There unquestionably is plenty of it but who would wish the radio to be playing symphonies all the time? The most rabid music fan has no right to expect more than three sym phonies in one day, as took place yesterday. If he is lucky enough to hear any of the big orchestras in person he will hear only one on a program. There is strong proba bili- ty that throughout the coming sea- son it will be possible for any music lover to hear four complete sym phonies every week. He should be willing to put up with a lot of jazz for that privilege.
 Mir Stokowski yesterday, in an nouncing he would direct the "Sacre" over the air, must have thrilled people in at least two diff ferent ways: Either with delight or with terror. Once, when We listened to the "Sacre" at least 500 persons walked out of Carnegie Hall before it began, doubtless thinking they lack ! exhibition of very ultra odern music. But nowadays millions of peo- pie have accustomed their ears 10 static noises, interference and what not, and perhaps they can stand the terribly descriptive music of the "Sacre.' II at least cannot sound any worse than trying to get radio en- joymcnt when a thunder storm is within 50 miles.
 The Hartford station, with it's 50,- 900 watts, is entirely out of luck in assisting in the symphonic broad casts. When it had a modest 250 watts it could be on the air any time and in addition to the Saturday night Damrosch concerts it took plenty of Sunday afternoon specials. Had it not been for the time re- strictions incident to it's high power it undoubtedly would have broadcast the Philadelphia Orchestra yesterday afternoon. There may be some ad- vantages in having 50.000 watts power. but not so many when time on the air is restricted to com paratively few hours, However, the WEAI' chain lands well in this sec ton of New England through the Schenectady station, and the WIZ chain lands well through Springfield, while WOR, on independent, does it's bit quite handsomely. But it is ridiculous to have a high powered station in the neighborhood and have 1t miss a share of the stellar i symphonic broadcasts,
