DO-X AND SISTER SHIPS

Although the DO-N monster air plane has gone no further than England in it's projected trip across the Atlantic via the southern route. this latest contribution of the Dornior works has created a large stir in aviation circles and orders for similar planes from various sources have been reaching the German plant al Altenhein. SUitz~r- land, IL IS worth anyone's time to analyze the orders, which lend in creased understanding of the state Of the national mind in Europe
 Italy was the first nation to order two such planes and they are al ready being built for MT. Mussolini' S government. The British air mln- istry. duly impressed, and the Prince Of Wales gladly taking a spin in the visiting plane, is also said to be considering the purchase Of s4ch a plane.
 How quick the nations are to possess themselves of such monsters must be a commentary upon their state of mind. Italy. unable 10 agree with France regarding naval parity, seized the opportunity. no doubt, to obtain additional power in the air to assist it in increasing it's air strength, especially in view of Frances continental supremacy m the clouds Britain, f she would keep step, IS likewise in the market for the latest in air appliances. Pre- oumahly France prefers 10 continue manufacturing it's own airplane war material.

THIS RI RAJ DELIVER
 IN \ CITY

Our Postmaster has delivered himself oC some pleasing announce menJs. These deal with the fact that city postal service has been subst- tuted for rural delivery service in various sections Of the city. thus causing fewer rural delivery mall roceptaclcs 10 clutter Up the view where the improved service takes effect,
 About year or two ago the Postmaster told citizens receiving their mail through rural delivery carriers that much of an improve ment 10 the eye would result if the mail boxes along the sidewalks were all Of the most improved and approved type, and citizens could well afford 10 cooperate by putting them up in an artistic manner. The response, to our notion has not been widespread. merely judging by the looks Of the boxes one meets in the suburban districts.
 If the Postmaster wishes 10 i'm prove the situation himself he might york toward doing away with the rural delivery system alto- gethcr by substituting city delivery throughout the entire city. The words rural delivery" t strikes us. connotes countrifed delivery, he sort that is necessary where the spaces arc wide. l. seems 10 us it has no place, Or should have no place, within city Of 70,o0o peopte. f t docs there must be something wrong" said something probably being a lack Of sufficient funds to employ sufficient letter carriers 10 take the place Of the rural delivery system.
 Particularly should il not be necessary to combine in rural routes sections of the map not yet within the city with sections within the city. Tor instance, one rural de- livery carrier starts out in the morning headed for parts of Con- nccticut known as Elm Hill and Maple Hill. and then wonds his way 10 Barneadale and points in that direction. The first named are not yet parts of the city, while the other points on the route are. one can guess when the folks on the last legs of the route get their mFil. Still, it is an improvement over what it once vas. There was q time. indeed. when folks in this city got their first mail delivery of the day late in the afternoon, one Cit- zen telling Us he used 10 get his rural mall box stuffed after p. III. To the best Of our knowledge, noth- ing Of the kind exists nowadays, thanks 10 our progressive Post master, who apparently is bullish for improvements when and if the Government furnishes the money.
 It's q problem; but the sooner there is city postal service all over the city, instead of part 'rural' service, the more citihed we will feel. And it would give jobs to more letter carriers. which at a time of not enough jobs 10 go around even the Government should consider an advantage if il is will ing to practice what it breaches.
 How 1t comes that Our Postmas- ter improves the service in New Brit ain when there are complaints else where of a contrary procedure is beyond our ken. Since July 1, Wash ington dispatches indicate, the Postmaster General has consolidat- cd 450 rural routes and more than J10 substitute letter carriers have been thrown out of work in the. cities because of the cancellation of

THE "CLAMOROt> MINORITY
 AND 4 STATE INCOME TAX

uperlntendent of Schools Holmes. in hls remarkably frank and hard hlt,ing address. must have made the "clamorous minority who play to the galleries with unintel- ngent criticism regarding the cost ot the school system, do consider able winning. With such politicians every city is afflicted. and were Il not for 1he fact that the ma. ority Of the public is oasy-goins and pays no particular attention 10 their taI- minations, they would receive short shrift. The Superintendent recog- nized the abundant fact that the school system has is friends, and that they are far in the ma ajortY and back every attempt 10 improve 1ae school system with better build ings. better equipment and favor inn proving the service to pupils. They clamor for improvements where they do not exist. Every Parent and Teachers Association in the city is unit in advocating the best pos sible school system.
 Not content with lambasting the censorious critics as they deserved. however the Superintendent also let fly an idea of highly construct i've nature. This was based on the claim that faxes on small realty holdings-homes-are considered too high.
 Frankly admitting this 10 he the ease, due 10 the real estate bearing 100 great a part Of the burden of taxation, the Superintendent frank ly suggested that Connecticut should have a state income tax, as is the case in New York. Massachusetts and some other states. From this tax would come substantial pro portion Of the money for the schools. and it would come from the pockets of vcll-to-do individuals, not the ordinary small home owner "Connectlcut is slow, con
 servatiye and backward in this
 respect and Will be for some
 time to come were his quoted
 words
 In days gone by when all n-en Of good incomes took pride in own ing homes commensurate with their incomes the realty tax could not help being faif. But nowadays thou sands of the wealthiest men in the country live in apartments, often, as in New York City, paying higher apartment rentals yearly than the average fine home elsewhere is worth. Their coupon-clipping actiri- ues is a quiet proces that would be entirely untaxed were it not for the state and federal income tax.
 But any suggestion that Con- necticut possess itself of a state in- come tax as the faircst means Of spreading the tax burden under modern conditions Uill meet with the frenzied opposition of influential Crizens n the state, who incident ally usually arc good Republicans, :"
 AS things stand now. a state in- come tax would be regarded as just one more tax The state or sanitation has inflicted plenty of '. them but they are well camouflag- cd. An income tax comes right into - mo open and usually is roundly . de nounced by those who would come under it's operation

New York. Nov 13.-Col. Charles ! Lindbergh winds up a years clash 1 with newspapers and news photog- raphers with no particular victories. ! My sympathies naturally lie entirely with the Fourth Estate. In the be- ginning Lindbereh had d press agent and subscribed 10 clipping bureaus, so he is not so publicity shy. The most eXtravagant reportorldl encomiums ever written have been for Lindbereh and deservedly. As an extraordinarily fine and courage ous achievement his has not been eAcelled. Yet fairness demands that many others flying into eternity be gratefully remembered as just as courageous.
 The ephameral quality called luck, plus a cool capacity for qulcrl thinking, played a big and impor- tant part in Lindbergh's romance of the air. Snatched out of total ob, security. the acclaim of the world was increased by the incessant hug zahs of the press.
 It is unfortunate in his heroic role he has to be bothered by news papermen but that is fame's inevit- able penalty. Others who won great ness have bowed 10 it good nat turedly. Over seriousness on the part of scandal reporters or camera men is not the fault Of the press. IL i5 on the whole a decent profession. Col. Lindbergh's most conspicuous example of ill temper was indulged when his son was born. Naturally. the press wanted photograph of tho heir for an eager multitude. In stead. he took the photograph him. self and passed it out 10 only those papers and press associations he favored.
 He was a little surprised when papers he had snubbed published the picture, he had denied them at the same time as those he favored. All newspapers ar geared to grappra with just such emergencies. The first display of retaliation came a few weeks later.
