cents each were sold by the state and not by the city, it still is being claimed by the censoriously inclined that the desks should not have been sold for that price but should have been used somewhere or other. thus giving someone-perhaps coun- try school authorities-the chance of avoiding the purchase of newer desks or tables.
 Every person who has been in a modern school knows fully that the styles in seating pupils have radi- cally changed; that more modern ideas are in effect; and that they are better ideas than the old. Of course, a bright pupil can learn his lessons at any kind of a desk; but he may as we'll be comfortable and happy in school. The old-style desks would at least not aid him.
 If there are oldlfashioned country schools here and there which can make use of antiquated desks let them have them. We doubt whether this is likely, ho,.ever. Even coun- try schools have progressed a little during the past 30 years.
 We assume that all the critics of the school desk sale for ten cents models of automobiles.

THE WICKED BEARS

It is not surprising that officials of the stock exchange went to the White House to confer with the President 10 enlist his aid in pre- venting bear raids. These have been altogether too successful of late and if the President has it within his power to do something about it he will please many stock owner by exerting his influence.
 Neither the President nor the government have any facilities for curbing the bears, however. If false information could be shown to have been spread across states through the telegraph or by mail the gov- ernment could step in and prose- cute. But the intent of such inform ation would have to be shown as being designed to depress the stock market, and this would have to be proven. There is small chance of success in this direction Incidentally most such information, If it is spread. probably is done through the telephone, which leaves no trace of the conversations
 It is the fundamental condition that makes bear raids possible. When stocks are on the upgrade the bears have no chance to exert d bad influence. Merely because the bulls have had the worst of the tussle on exchange is no reason for soreness at the bears. Let the pow ers-that-be, including the admin istration, do more to change the fundamental conditions which give the bears their opportunity and there will be no necessity to wax wroth over what the bears are like ly to do to line their pockets.

THE HARTFORD BRIDGE
 AND THE STATE

Up in Hartford, where the lordly Connecticut unobtrusively flows past the city, plans are being made to have the state construct a great new bridge across the river, south of the present structure and much higher, so that vessels from the Sound can pass under it.
 The state, not the city, is expect ed to construct the bridge provid- ing a new artery of traffic across the river south of the present bridge. Incidentally it will aid in the development of real estate and this and that. Everybody in the town firmly believes in this form of state aid.
 Down in Bridgeport, where news of this raid on the treasury" has percolated indignation is wide spread. Wasn't it only few years back, the indignant Bridgeporters recall, that the Park City was com- pelled to construct two bridges in order to assist traffic conditions along the states Boston Post road : And didn't the city, not the state pay for the bridges? Why cannot Hartford do the same? is asked Why isn't Hartford forced to pay for its bridge at least partly, in stead of relying upon state fundso
 These are fair questions and Bridgeport is justified in asking them. We, too, should like to know how it is that the state is going tc foot the entire bill. Is Hartford toe poor to pay for a part of it?
 Or perhaps a mistake was made when Bridgeport was allowed to pay for the bridges along the Post road and the state isn't expected to make the same mistake twice.

the state of Rio Grande do Sul, where the inhabitants have always been aloof from northern Brazilians. holding them as inferior.
 It must be remembered that Bra gil covers a larger territory than the United States or Canada. From it's northeast tip-which is considerab- ly closer to Europe than any point In North America--to the scuth- ern tip Is as far as the dis tance from New York to Vera Cruz. Mexico. The width of the country is as far as from New York to north ern California at the Pacific ocaan.
 Of course, all this land is not oc- cupied. Enormous areas of the west ern proportion are unexplored, ex- cept for airplanes which have flown over it. The seacoast, how ever, is we'll populated, and Rio de Janeiro is one of the finest cities in the world.
 Failure of the rebels to take over all the government would still leave them with control of the states where the revolt spirit is strong. How the federal government would conquer such states if they should persist in their spirit of revolt IS difficult 10 contemplate at this time. The difficulty in Brazil Is that in the states where the revolt centers it is practically an unanimous uprising by the population; and as the dis tances are vast and the populations in the more important states con- siderable, the South American im- broglio is in truth major develop ment on the map of the western hemisphere.

CITY NEED NOT FEAR A FEW MPOSTORS

It has been said at City Hall that if some sections of the public were to become aware that the city had a large fund at its disposal to succor those in hard luck the city would be fooled into paying at money to undeserving people who would impose upon its charitable impulses. It Is just as well, goes the reasoning, to let 1t be known posi- lively at this time that the money in the hands of the welfare depart ment will be exhausted by February.
 We see no reason to feel bad over this Somebody is going to fool the city regardless of all the city can do about it or it may be half dozen somebodies who will per- petrate their hoaxes upon the we'll meaning city dads, and the city in evitably is going to lose a few dollars through their chicanery.
 That should be no reason, how ever, why the city should adopt a niggardly policy and deny to per- fectly honest but poor people their means of sustenance this winter. If the city is going to clamp down the lid upon the honestly deserving merely because a few dishonest per sons are likely to defraud the city then every private organization at tempting to alleviate the poor and distressed would be justified in doing the same.
 When the private organizations do their charity work-usually without the blasting of trumpets and without any publicity worth men, tioning-their members do not lie awake at nights wondering whether some of the funds or a part of the garments and food distributed has gone to people who really could have gotten along without such aid. They take the chance of dropping few crumbs where they may not be necessary in the wholesome be- lief that the majority of the aid ex- tended has gone to the right people.

FROM BAD TO WORSE

Another change in the parking system around the center is contem- plated in an endeavor to clarify what remains an unattractive situation,
 No matter what is done it is doubtful whether much good will be attained until there are fewer buses and trolley cars permitted to utilize the Center as a terminal, ter minal warehouse, passenger termi- nal, or as municipal parking place.
 A week or so ago. on certain Saturday night, we strolled to the Center and counted the number of trolleys and automobiles standing still at one time. There were six trolley cars and eleven buses with in eyeshot Some of the buses were so crowded for room that they could not gain the vicinity of the curbs and jutted out into the right of way. No effort seemed to be made by the police traffic department to bring any of these space occupiers to terms with the city ordinances. This situation lasted for several minutes and though here and there a bus or trolley left to 80 on it's trip, others took their place.
 Yet each time an effort has been made to spread the terminal situa- ton further to other points in the downtown area there have been pro- tests by the companies, and by a part of the public which seems dis inclined 10 regard such change as desirable.
 The situation is growing worse, | and just to be as cantankerous as possible, We hope and trust it grows very much worse in the shortest possible time. Only in this way, Vt are convinced. will 1t ever be poss- ble 10 bring about a necessary re- form. When conditions become ex- traordinarily bad something in- variably is done to improve them. At present they are not quite bad ! enough to force the city dads or whoever is running the Center to at tempt what eventually will have to be done.

 Concerning state politics the speakers said that election of dem ocratic administration would de- liver Connecticut from boss rule" and place in power a party which places the interests of personal rights above material rights.
 The speakers included: Dean Wilbur L. Cross, Thomas Hewes of Pennington, Mrs. E. Hathaway Turnbull of Greenwich, David A. Wilson, candidate for attorney gen. cal and Augustine Lonergan, candi- date for congress.

PARTY UNITY PLEA
 MADE ID ITALIANS
Candidate Christ Asks That
 "Slights to Race" Be Ignored

The best interests of the party as a whole must be placed above those of an individual in practical politics, Senator Ernest W. Christ, candidate for reelection on the re- publican ticket, told a gathering at Sons of Italy hall last night under auspices of the Columbus Republi- can club in reply to a question ask ed by a man in the audience who sought information as to the man. ner in which Italian republicans could best meet the charge that the republican party Slaughtered" Judge Francis Pallotti of Hartford when he sought the nomination for governor a few years ago.
 Senator Christ said it was an old practice in politics to stir up dis content by sympathizing with and consolng defeated candidates for nominations for office. The voters should look beyond personalities by studying the history of political par ties and making an effort to learn what they stand for rather than al- lOHlll6 tO DC leO lllto pOP. porting candidates for whom votes are sought by such claims as demo- cratic speakers are putting forth, he said.
 Senator Christ described to the audience the pay-as-you-go policy of the state of Connecticut adopted and carried out by the republican administration during the past sev- eral years. and he also dwelt cn Judge B. W. filings candidacy for probate judge, urging that he be supported as a competent and ca pablo lawyer and judge.
 Representative Thure Bengtson and William F. Lange, who are seek ing reelection, spoke on the issues of the campaign, the former predicting that system of caring for aged peo- pie by pension will be effected even- tually and he would favor 1t provid- ed a practical means for carrying 1t out is proposed. Representative Bengtson went into details about the taxation system in Connecticut and stressed the claim that the welfare of the public can be better assured through the services of experienced men in important offices.

BRAZIL FACES ITS GREATEST
 CRISIS

Now that it has been possible to obtain unccnsored news from Brazil it is more than ever evident that the federal government of that great South American nation is at grips with the gravest of emergen- cies, and If unsuccessful in erasing the revolt faces the possibility of secession by some of the southern states.
 It must be ren..mLtied that though the Brazilian constitution is modelled on that of the United States, it allows far greater meas ure of states rights, so that each of the 20 states is almost independent, accepting the interference of the federal government in very few matters. This rather loose confeder- alton has always stimulated the im- portance of the states, some of which today are attempting to erase all further traces of federal inter- ference in their affairs. The revolu- tion in Brazil many observers think, is basically a test of states rights against what some of the states term federal usurpation.
 The crux of the revolt now hinges upon the attempted penetration ot Sac Paulo, and if this is not success fully accomplished by the rebels a long drawn out revolution is in pros. pect. It would be an admittedly hard task by the federals to capture inn portant revolting states, especially

No Contagious Cases
 Accepted at Hospita]

The directors of New Britain Gen. eral hospital have voted unanimous ly not to allow the use of any part of the hospital for the purpose of isolating cases of contagious dis eases. according to a communication received by Dr. L. J. Dumont, super intendent of health.
 As the Hartford isolation hospital has only limited accommodations and Hartford cases are given pref crence, Dr. Dumont is concerned about the situation which would arise in the event of serious cpl
